But the treble check shows redmagic 3 has only slot A not A&B.
So how did you do that flashing A/B
Please also post a guide if possible and you have time for the same..
Really appreciate.
Thanks

I know I'm being a jerk here but the thing that I don't own a PC force me to post this here. If anyone can try to install game space and see if it would work. I believe gsi rom is much better than stock rom for our device as I'm using stock global rom and encounter lot of bugs and the only thing that make me happy is game space. Thanks!

This Friday hope I will be testing maximum no. of GSI image and will be posting which boots and working better for Redmagic 3 in a separated thread for discussion with the community.
Also will backup such as Game launcher, LED Strip and other important app using titanium backup and will try to install as system to check if they are working or not.
Just flash the Chinese rom then flash TWRP and then go here https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development and pick any rom you want some of them even have GAPPS included
---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------
If you're having trouble with GAPPS follow this steps
1) Boot into TWRP
2) Flash latest GSI img
3) Resize system file system (necessary on my device otherwise gapps will not install)
- Wipe -> Advanced -> select system -> resize file system
4) Flash pico or mini or aroma which ever you want gapps zip
6) Flash magisk zip
7) reboot
every (gsi) rom i've tried so far(various versions of resurrection remix, lineage, android 9 AOSP) has gotten stuck at the boot animation, tried pretty much everything i could think of(with a lot of getting stuck at the bootloader as a result)
for twrp i followed standard guides and the guides posted here, no errors, just gets stuck at the boot animation(i've waited for up to 2 hours to see if it might still continue)
anyone have any idea what could be going wrong?

I've successfully installed aosp 9 (phhusson), havoc 2.9 & 3 on my phone.
Here's some step that i take:
1. Install Chinese rom
2. Reboot to stock recovery wipe userdata & cache
3. Install twrp
4. Flash system image from twrp (always use a/b image)
5. Resize filesystem
6. Flash gapps & magisk
The phone should reboot once on the 1st boot and then boot normaly on the 2nd, you will know you've succeeded if the screen become dim at booting. That should take only a couple minutes, not hours. If that didn't happen try to format data from twrp or use different rom (i found that aex didn't work on my phone)
Hope this help :good:

Hi. I tried the phhusson 10.0 V203. It worked and it booted. I used ARM64 AB image. Everything was working fine, except i was unable to make any outgoing calls. So i tried to use a different image. After that nothing is working. Even the image that worked the first time doesn't work. It keeps getting stuck in boot loop and going to fastboot. I tried with 4 GSI images, nothing is working.

I've reverted my phone back to cn rom soon after because of the strange vibration bug on every single gsi rom i've tested and forgot to take stock rom system dump at that time so i never got any chance to try it.
But i've tried to install gamespaces stuff to my other phone running aex pie with no avail. So, unless anyone know how to mod the app or port the necessary framework stuff from stock into gsi rom I think it will never work.
Maybe some overlay will make it work. i don't know, just guessing.

If you stuck on fastboot after splash screen (without boot animation) then you have to use the unbrick tool to flash over the system and redo it if you want to. Never reboot without system on this phone or you'll stuck on fastboot.
But if it got bootloop at booting screen and able to enter twrp then you can try to wipe or format data. It happens on my phone too. I don't know if the twrp was buggy or something but yeah just try it back and forth between wiping and formating then it will randomly fixed.
Red magic 3 treble
That's the thing with this phone. Everything is random. I did use the repair tool and flashed the latest global version. But I am unable to flash the gsi again. It keeps getting stuck in fastboot screen. But if I select recovery from fastboot. It does goes to twrp recovery. But nothing after that. I hope someone can make a custom rom with Nubia launcher.
Red magic NEEDS to provide us with fastboot images...We have no real way to recover from a semi brick WTF!

I'm on havoc 2.9 right now. I managed to install game space and run it but it doesn't activate fan, so I'm guessing it need permissions and framework files which I don't know it's file name so I just give up on this. But game space does run like normal app. If you are wondering how I install game space, I pull out game space apk from global system.bat.br (after converted it to system.img) and put the apk in system/app using twrp file manager. Maybe someone knowledgeable can figure this out.

I have been using custom roms for years.
I wanted to try flashing GSI images, and i decided to start with Havoc-OS-v4.4-20210503-arm64-a-Official-vanilla.img
I installed twrp-3.5.2_9-0-z2_row
I completely wiped everything, system/cache/data etc.
I flashed Havoc-OS-v4.4-20210503-arm64-a-Official-vanilla.img then NikGapps-basic-arm64-11-20210514-signed.zip.
Rebooted.
Phone is instantly resetting right after the ZUK logo goes away. stuck in boot loop. Am i doing something wrong ?

Can you send me the link of the thread where you saw your rom?. Pretty sure theres a tutorial in it.. You are missing some important step like flashing create vendor.zip or repartitioner.zip and some other stuff.. Give me the link...
[11][OFFICIAL] Havoc-OS 4.1 [ARM64/ARM/A64][A/AB/AB-VNDKLITE][GApps/Vanilla]
Havoc-OS 4.x is based on AOSP, inspired by Google Pixel. Has a refined Material Design 2 UI crafted by @SKULSHADY. Many useful features that will blow your mind. All you can dream of and all you'll ever need. Just flash and enjoy... General...
forum.xda-developers.com
Your question is a bit weird because this is a GSI. it's not model specific and should apply to things treble.
So it's not "my rom" it's just a gsi rom that should just work, right ? (unless i did something wrong)
Procedure was standard, clean, no dirty flashing.
Flash img, then gapps, then reboot.
I remember the instructions were for an older version of havoc, i just took the latest build because that's what you usually do ???
Regardless, this is not a HAVOC issue, I later tried with caos build caos-v307-210507-arm64-agZ.img. The exact same behavior happened.

to flash a GSI image first you should wipe all except internal storage.
then install a Vendor ie; Basic roms like AEX, ARROW OS according to the GSI Version
if you GSI image is based on Android 10 then you should flash a android 10 rom from aex or arrow, then flash the gsi to system, then reboot

So, the gsi flashing just copies the image-byte-by-byte to the /system partition ?
Just like dd on linux ? Blind transfer from one direction to the other ?Is this why you recommend flashing "basic roms", so that by flashing the zips all other partitions are updated accordingly ? like /vendor and so on ?Please clarify and keep it technical, i want to learn

Try what @hash02 said you can check the link i gave you above to view the full detail and to avoid boot loops reboot to recovery after flashing the gsi then flash the gapss then factory reset then reboot...And dont use nikgaps instead use other Gapps..

Well, Ok but where do i find android 11 opengapps ?
I didn't find any other gapps for Android 11.
However I tried your method even if it makes absolutely no sense at all. This device is a-only not a/b. Can you explain that or is that an elephant in the room that you dont want to talk about ?
In any case, the device does not bootloop anymore, it just sits in fastboot mode.
These are the steps to flash a gsi on zuk z2 pro correctly:
Wipe clean all partitions excluding user data
Then flash https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/radio-modem-basebands-for-zuk-z2-pro-only.3715835/ latest baseband
Flash boot image [ linked below - it is the boot image extracted from a mokee 9.0 rom ]
flash vendor image [ copied from another thread ]
flash gsi image [which ever you want]
reboot to recovery again [ sometimes it doesnt work unless you do ]
reboot to system

by flashing gsi no vendor is updated or modified. because gsi's are generic rom with only system image, no other partitions. so flashing a basic rom (especially made for your device) , that will update every partition, and then replacing system by gsi system thats all.

Thank you, I figured as much as I did a lot of testing trial and error and flashed lots of files yesterday. Got it working booting etc. Unfortunately the ROMs don't support fingerprint scanner out of the box and didn't bother to make it work. Just wanted something stable to use my phone. Thx

for me AEX 8.1 is awesome, but none of custom support Uhealth with Sp02 sensor. its very usefull at this time.
When I try to install a ROM, no problem installing TWRP and flashing a ROM.
But when I restart, whatever the ROM it systematically restarts on TWRP.
Everything is back to normal when I reinstall the MiUi ROM.
I installed vbmeta, TWRP is kept even with the MiUi ROM.
I tried to install a ROM on MiUi but nothing happened, TWRP is launched systematically after restarting.
I tried with several versions of TWRP but nothing worked.
Also with LOLz kernel with and without; and Magisk too.
Sleep on it !
you have to format DATA and not Wipe !
Hello guys! I'm new here and don't know where to get help. My phone (Xiaomi 4g [phoenix]) has a weird bootloop to it.
I installed Miui 13 eu rom via the name of file is "windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format" now I get a bootloop that goes back to TWRP.
When i checked the my storage on my pc it only shows TWRP folder only. i don't know what to do. i've been sitting the whole day trying to figure to fix my phone.
I downloaded a Miui 12 and installing it via twrp. now after a few minutes of waiting and still get backs to TWRP.

sorry for the super late response
its supposedly for bypassing android verfied boot (avb). it blocks unauthorized roms from booting. if you search for 'what is vbmeta', we literally get no info at all and mainly speculations (no official docs etc). imho it does seem true

Now I'm stuck in booting into TWRP recovery. I looked up a few kinds of stuff and none of them worked. Is anyone else facing the same problem? has anyone got a working fix? I tried removing the TWRP folder, re-flashing TWRP with TWRP and orange fox recover, and then flashing ROM. non helped. got a broken phone now any help is appreciated.

I had A12 then. I flashed pixel experience 12.1 on May 28(PixelExperience_Plus_raphael-12.1-20220528-1605-OFFICIAL.zip) and it went thru just fine. Now the updates of 8/20 bricked the phone.
After format data, I get the Readonly info screen, I swipe to allow modification, side loads the latest download PixelExperience_Plus_raphael-12.1-20220820-1448-OFFICIAL.zip, and restart, but back to TWRP recovery.
Some things I tried
0. https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/raphael/install/
1. https://www.getdroidtips.com/keep-booting-twrp-recovery/
2. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/pixelexperience-stuck-in-bootloop.4435533/ ( it's shown for beryllium but I did for Raphael code with all files related to Raphael version such has recovery and pixel exp. img file
Any other flow I can try to get it fixed ?
I'm thinking to reverting back to MIUI is nth works.

Wipe everything, system, vendor, internal storage, dalvik, cache via advanced wipe, then flash firmware and vendor or if your rom has included firmware then just flash the rom directly. Try to boot into OS if it still bring back to twrp then again repeat the above steps and this time flash stock vendor and firmware from mi website and try to boot into OS.

All the best
yes using the team win version of TWRP. Used Orange Fox recovery. ( nice look and feel and features btw). But they didn't work either. What could I try more? Could I be able to revert back to MIUI stock ROM ? let me know if you have good resources. Thank you very much for your time and efforts

Back to MIUI
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flash-tool-guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
flashed stock miui rom for now. Will tap into pixel rom in few days.
now that I think, I think I did a blunder, thinking I was in A12. Can you point me to A12 firmware for Redmi k 20 pro? I"m looking into https://miuirom.org/phones/xiaomi-12, but they seem to be recovery and not firmware. I'm not sure if recovery comes with firmware. As I need to format to install, will the firmware stay or not?

Xiaomi has stopped updating on Android version 11.
Which rom do you want to install?

Why bothering to manually search here and there for official ROMs
Install the app:
MIUI Downloader - Apps on Google Play
MIUI upgrade app for Mi users.
play.google.com
and the app will show you links to download the latest Global, EEA, etc, zip/recovery or tgz/fastboot, or you can scroll through the older versions and pick an older if you wish
Btw, latest are MIUI 12.5, A11 - there are no official A12 ROMs for Mi 9/Redmi K20 line of models
Even if they receive MIUI 13, it will be (for some already released, but eg China only, etc) it will be A11
Same issue, I guess this is it for me. Time to buy a new phone rather than accidentally losing data from time to time with custom ROMs. I wonder if they didn't know such issue exists before releasing it to the public.
