GSI ROM Testing (8.1.0)

Successfully flashed emui 8.0 on usa variant without need to rebrand by using hurupdater WOOT AND zero issues encountered
Step 1. all i did was fastboot flash system of 64bit A only gsi resurrection remix
Step 2. make sure you are using stock recovery from huawie and fromat data.
Step 3. reboot && profit
EDIT: side note, apparently people on here are asking if this is for real or not lol. heres a screenshot in here https://imgur.com/a/depZugF
i have tested this rom for about 6 hours and as of now its smooth as butter, havent had a single issue (yet).
pretty sure if you are using emui 8 you are golden to install whatever Aonly GSI you want.
also for bonus i instaled latest magisk and you guessed it is flawless
hoping this is not a duplicate but i cant find a post on this yet
try heading of to treble rom dev and have a go at it guys!

is themes apps working for you? flashing emui 8 via huru will give incomplete flash.

This was possible for the US variant ( L24) since July. It was mentioned couple times before. I think using hwota is a cleaner way of upgrading.

How do you do it?, Where is the links of the files?

thanks for responses, i updated the op and hopefully that is a bit more informative.
let me know if it is confusing at all and ill try to fix it

Can i flash p gsi.? (havoc 2.0)
And.. Is volte working..?

If I am not wrong I think volte will not work on any custom roms except for a stock based custom room because Huawei hasn't released source for it. Dunno I could be wronf

It's not a custom rom... It's gsi

anyone tested other gsi? i only tried open kirin roms

are you sure it didn't rebranded? at about information, it say bln-24 or bln-al20? it could brick the phone, I thinks is better using the emui 8 from india instead the china version

hey guys, any A ONLY GSI ROM should work. i used treble resurrection remix NOT openkirin as the op states.
and i DID NOT rebrand, it states in rom info i am BLN-L24 -thats usa ver.

That's great man, i need to backup a lot of stuff since last TWRP backup, but I'm definitely gonna do this. I own a BLN-L21, so i hope this'll works the same as on any other variant, and that would be the real gem in all of this. Thanks for sharing

Searching for "hwota7" gives you this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/development/hwota7-hwota8-honor-6x-t3792601
In short, all you have to do is put the oreo firmware files (L22 version, not the Chinese version) in the update folder and run the batch script. Choose L24 region during the process and you're done. I've done this at least couple dozen times as I frequently test out all treble ROMs as they're released/updated, and sometimes go back to nougat in case I find something that's not compatible with oreo. But all in all, this oreo ROM is very stable and is my daily driver.

During your testing, which ROM has been the most stable in terms of daily-driver use so far? Last year after getting this 6x I tried a few different ROMS, back before OpenKirin happened, and had nothing but problems with boot loops and etc so I went back to stock EMUI5. Few days ago I got B365 and then B376 via OTA after installing the Huawei software on my PC. This phone really makes me miss my S5 with LineageOS.

step-by-step how to install the MIUI 10 - PIE without losing the data?

Can anyone provide a step-by-step how to install the MIUI 10 - PIE without losing the data?
Each one I ask passes me different information and I can not come up with a solution.
I am using MIUI 8.1 and I have installed Recovery Oragen Fox 9.0.1. What do I have to do to install MIUI-PIE now?
If I want to go back to MIUI-OREO, what do I have to do?
Thank you.

Download xiaomi.eu rom, delete everything besides internal storage, flash xiaomi.eu zip, and boom miui Android 9
Also, if you want to go back you will have to flash global 10.2.2 via xiaomi flash tool

use a previous version of orangefox one for oreo. i beleive 9.0.1 has pie support. if you use this youll end up in fastboot screen.
so use oreo twrp not new ones that support miui pie..
follow rom installation then flash with oreo support twrp. when it boots. then install now orangefox with miui pie support. follow instructions and flash.
to go back you need a fastboot rom and mi flash.. as long as you use same ARB use masik xiaomi.eu they are firmware less.

Downloading an EEAROM for use with Xiaomi Mi Flash Redmi Note 8T

Hi all,
First of all please bear with me as I am a total noob when it comes to Android let alone the Redmi Note 8T I have just purchased the phone and now waiting for the 360 hours to expire. Tick tock...
So in preparation I have been looking for ways to flash my phone to the MIUI EEA ROM (I have a global version running global ROM). I know MIFlash should be able to do the trick, but it seems to me there are two types of ROM files - one for the OTA update (i.e. so you would copy the file over to the phone, then use the system update feature within the phone's setting to invoke the update process), and another type of ROM files for use by MiFlash.
Assuming this is true, so far I could only manage to find the OTA update ROM for EEA:
h<spacer>ttp<spacer>:/<spacer>/en.miui.com/download-361.html#588 (sorry new users aren't allowed to post links hence this. Please copy and delete the spacers)
Does anyone know where I could grab a copy of the EEA ROM that I could use with Mi Flash so after my phone eventually gets it bootloader unlocked, I could proceed with the switch from Global to EEA?
Or am I getting this whole concept wrong?
Thanks and cheers !

well...if you want to change to another region rom then using phone's updater app won't help...you have to flash through mi flash.

If you willow (Note 8T) choose stable version because willow doesn't have weekly build.

so it must be this link.. https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...HMNote8T_V11.0.7.0.PCXEUXM_v11-9.zip/download
and you need root and unlocked bootloader to install it via twrp.

[Recovery][ALPHA][ANDROID-10][22-05-2021] LineageOS Recovery 17.1 for Realme X50 Pro 5G (RMX2076)

Introduction
This is a LineageOS Recovery compiled from the source tree of LineageOS 17.1 for Realme X50 Pro 5G. This is part of my ongoing work to port LineageOS 17.1 to this device. Work on the actual LineageOS 17.1 ROM is still under way (but it should be available very soon), while the recovery has been usable for quite some time now. Since it is not possible for TWRP to support any device launched with Android 10 for now, I figured that this might be useful even before I release the LineageOS custom ROM (e.g. people may want to flash Magisk on official ROMs).
Instructions (Installing Recovery)
1. Run `fastboot flash recovery recovery.img`
2. Run `fastboot reboot recovery` to enter LineageOS Recovery
Instructions (Installing Magisk)
You have to use the official Magisk, version 20.4 or later. Installing an older Magisk will make the system unbootable.
1. Download Magisk >= 20.4, put onto computer
2. Reboot to LineageOS recovery, select `Mount /system` (you may see some errors, but they can be safely ignored)
3. Select `Apply update from ADB`
4. Run `adb sideload Magisk-xxx.zip`
5. You will see a signature verification error, select `Yes` to bypass the check
6. Reboot to system to enjoy your Magisk installation.
DOWNLOADS
DOWNLOAD lineageos recovery for X50 Pro 5G
Need few testers to test roms, recoveries etc.

First tell me your current firmware version. And there is no benefit to flash magisk in android-11 because it will damage your wifi, mobile connection, bluetooth etc. So I won't recommend you to flash magisk on android-11. If you still want to flash it better to downgrade to Android-10 there is everything fine with magisk.

Question How do I flash a recovery rom without a custom recovery?

Hi y'all
I know that fastboot roms can easily be flashed with the miflash tool but recovery roms can only be flashed with twrp or another custom recovery. So how do I flash a recovery rom for the pad 5 when there's no custom recovery? I wanted to test out the MIUI 13 beta but I can't install it via miflash or the system updater since I'm on global rom and not china rom.

Anybody ask for GSI

I take the time to provide a useful link for someone who is too busy to search for themselves and get an aggressive sarcastic reply. C'est la vie.

When you flash the stock ROM with miflash tool, the stock recovery will also be flashed. There are tools that can extract or dump the recovery.img file from fastboot ROMs but I don't know if there is one for Xiaomi.

I asked around and was told it's not possible to flash an internal rom without a custom recovery.

So here's a MIUI 13 Chinese Stable Fastboot ROM:
https://bigota.d.miui.com/V13.0.3.0.RKXCNXM/nabu_images_V13.0.3.0.RKXCNXM_20211228.0000.00_11.0_cn_1d92f2dc98.tgz
Any idea how to flash this?
I installed the latest adb/fastboot packages from google, unlocked my Mi pad, booted into fastboot and then used the flash_all.bat file from the fastboot zip which runs through completely until I get a bootloop on MIUI logo.
