LAST PERSONALLY Verified as working and "stable"*: GAPPS, 8/19 GAPPS
First and foremost, I'm simply compiling this for the OnePlus 6 and am making some small tweaks to include Opengapps and not only Go Apps in the builds.
The parent for this by phhusson can be found at [Resurrection Remix] [Unofficial] [2018-05-19] Phh-Treble
Next the most important information where to get the most current build of the ROM: Google Drive
For now I suggest the version ending in -go such as: 'rr_6_1_180616_system-arm64-ab-go.img.xz' as the '-gapp' is in development, I expect a number of builds over the next few days as I finally the build scripts and then the rate to tapper off to every two weeks or as there are changes that seem to warrant it, I'm not building nightly for no reason, as RR 6.1 is reasonable stable at this time.
Note: Attached (build.sh) is the build script currently being used, it is a work in progress. and will be updated in case you more regular builds. You will need 12GB of Ram Ubuntu 16.04+ (I'm using 18.04 now, but I started with 16.04) and at least 360GB (SSD recommended) to build, and upto 6 hours for the initial run and then 2 for ever additional run.
Many thanks to phhusson for allowing me to post this based off of his work.
Changes, when I have something to report. Not all build will:
The 7/7 build includes a number of patches recommended by DocRambone.
Overlay support to force Apps fullscreen, Under Display->Advanced
Some cleanups to the UI for the round corners
Better LED support
The 7/8 build is the same as 7/7, but includes July security patches, I built it in order to match the official release.
The 7/24 build is again to match the official release
The 8/19 build is again to match the official release, note regression in status bar height I'm looking into.
Second post: will have details on what is working and not
Third Post: will have full instructions on installation, backup restore based on my experiences
* Stable is relative, for me if I consider it usable from day to day it is stable.
As of 8/11/2018
In the GAPPS version
Working:
Fingerprint
Camera (Front and Back) + Flash (Also got the OnePlus Camera working*)
Speaker

Instructions to flash, backup ...
WARNING: With 5.1.8 I had no WIFI, so I suggest sticking to 5.1.6 to 5.1.7 FOR THE MOMENT
Instructions to flash, backup ...
Total time required about 90 minutes
Pre-Reqs:
First and foremost:
Start with at least 5.1.6 (or greater, as of writing 5.1.7 was the lastest), there are Treble fixes in 5.1.6 we need.
Second
verify you have a good USB cable (the Red one shipped with the phone is best)
Three
download the oneplus drivers and abd
- USB Drivers: OnePlus 6 USB Drivers for Windows
- ADB/Fastboot: ADB/Fastboot latest mini
Install both to your local system
Four
Download the latest TWRP (get both the img and zip files)
TWRP for OnePlus 6
Five
Download the files(Treble OP6 Files 5.1.6) from:
GUIDE] How to flash Treble roms on OnePlus 6
Extract and keep: vbmeta.img (if you are on 5.1.X where is the boot version you can keep the boot.img as well, if not discard).
Six
Download the lastest Oxygen OS ZIP and bootloader from:
[OnePlus 6][ROM][OTA][Oxygen OS] Mirrors for official Oxygen OS ROMs and OTA updates
As of writing this is:
5.1.6 full image: OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_010_all_1806070151_ad8b19ed516e78.zip
5.1.6 boot: OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_010_all_1806070151_boot.img
Seven
Download Device ID:
Device+ID APK
Eight
Download Magisk for Treble:
Magisk modified for treble
Since as of 6/2018 the default magisk does not support Treble we need a special version I suggest: Magisk-v16.3-factory-faizauthar12-20180406.zip as teh latest I could find with support.
Nine
Recommended download fastboot installable 5.1.6 (or latest build):
[ROM][STOCK][FASTBOOT][OP6] Stock Fastboot ROMs for OnePlus 6
Ten
Include Overlay/Ambient Display.
Download APK at: [Overlay] Enable Night Light, Auto-Brightness, Ambient Display & more on Treble ROM
Eleven
OnePlus Camera:
OnePlus Camera APK's
Finally
Download RR 6.0 for Treble compiled after 7/08/2018:
Either download the gapps or go version (gapps is still a work in progress when I wrote this)
ROMs Google Drive
Getting Ready:
WARNING: you will loss all data on your phone, backup anything you want or need, first.
Make sure you can get to fastboot (enable "Advanced Reboot" in developers options and make sure that you can enter on a reboot by pressing volume-down and power at the same time)
Make sure you are on 5.1.6+ (5.1.6 was the latest firmware upon writing this)
Remove Any security you have set (just to be safe)
Reboot to fastboot (bootloader)
run:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
"You will be greeted with a Unlock Bootloader Warning page, Hit the Vol button to select Yes and turn it Blue and Hit the Power Button to Execute the selection, allow your device to reboot"
Backup EFS
If you have not already I'd recommend backing up EFS (to do so you need to be rooted, or else use TWRP):
Preferred, if rooted simply open a terminal and run:
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/sdf2 of=/sdcard/modemst1.bin bs=2048
dd if=/dev/block/sdf3 of=/sdcard/modemst2.bin bs=2048
Copy these files someplace safe!
If not rooted reboot to fastboot (bootloader):
Ensure that the latest twrp is in the same directory as fastboot (C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot) and run (3.2.1 was the lastest as of writing this):
Code:
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
This will boot the phone into twrp
Allow modification
Select backup
select only EFS and Modem
enter a meaningful name
swipe to backup
click "Reboot System" -> "Do not Install" for TWRP if asked.
You can now locate the backup under /storage/TWRP/BACKUPS and move it to a safe location off the phone.
Backup the Phone
Recommended if you care: Backup your entire phone using TWRP as well:
Ensure that the latest twrp is in the same directory as fastboot (C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot) and run (3.2.1 was the lastest as of writing this):
- fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
This will boot the phone into twrp
Allow modification
Select backup
Select Everything except EFS and Modem
enter a meaningful name
swipe to backup
click "Reboot System" -> "Do not Install" for TWRP if asked.
You can now locate the backup under /storage/TWRP/BACKUPS and move it to a safe location off the phone.
Installing RR:
Finally we are ready to install RR (or any other Treble ROM), on the OnePlus 6. You will need a build from 6/7/2018 or later to have the required Vender-Hal to be present.
You will need to locate and install the AB version for the OnePlus 6.
Note: I'm using RR from 6/13 as the base for the guide: system-arm64-ab-gapps.img
SEE FIRST POST FOR CURRENT DOWNLOAD LOCATION I compiled this using phhusson's (Orginial Build Scripts)
instructions and a bit of setup on Linux. However most Treble base ROM's should work so long as they are from after 6/7/2018 in a similar manor.
* Remember this will wipe your device and you will loss all data *
First
boot in to fastboot (bootloader):
We need to go back to TRWRP and wipe internal storage and data to be safe, as the -w option to do so when flashing is not working for me.
- fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
This will boot the phone into twrp
Allow modification
Select Wipe
Advanced Wipe
Select Cache, Data and "Internal Storage"
Swipe to Wipe
Click back until you are at the main menu
Click on Reboot
Click on Bootloader -> "Do not Install" for TWRP if asked.
Second
Flash the new ROM:
Flash vbmeta.img to remove validation
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
To be safe flash a default boot image (5.1.6 in this case)
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
Next reboot into recovery (you need to do this with volume down +Power, or selecting from bootload):
In stock recovery select English
Select Wipe Data and Cache
Reset system settings->yes->done
Wipe Cache->Yes->done
Erase everything->Thiscan not be undone, continue->done
back
Advanced
Reboot to fastboot->Reboot to fastboot
Now flash a the new ROM:
- fastboot flash system_a system-arm64-ab-gapps.img
- fastboot flash system_b system-arm64-ab-gapps.img
Three
reboot:
Code:
fastboot reboot
You will see the "andorid" boot screen (this is different that the Oxygen one) and being the first boot it could take a while. If you see no boot screen or it does not boot (give 10 minutes), then you likely need to repeat these steps again. If you boot into RR then continue.
You may get a Vender image mistake error ignore it it only appewars on boot.
Skip the Setup by clicking all four corners top left->top right->bottom right->bottom left (it my take more than one try), at this point you have no networking, that is what we want.
Suggestion make backup here as you have a working OS! -- Instructions to follow
Four
Move over required files: You now have RR installed and working:
Enable developer mode and then enable Advanced Reboot
Then copy over gapps-nano, Device+ ID.apk, magisk-manager apk and magisk installer zip to the phone
To get the magisk manager you need to extract it from the zip as I cloud not get the normal one to install. Extract the zip: Magisk-v16.3-factory-faizauthar12-20180406.zip copy common\magisk.apk to the phone
Five
Deal with: "Play Services not Certified by Google":
Install Device+ID (APK downloaed above) and Open
Once done open the second line shows the GSF ID for this device
Android Register GSF
Login using a gmail account (I suggest the one you use for the playstore)
Enter the GSF in the field, now we wait about 5 to 10 minutes for it to propigate
Reboot the phone as we want paly services to start fresh
First add a wIFI network.
Critical do not let any apps update until you have registered playstore, so if you see a notification saying downloading, select and click pause. Doing so with the updated 6/17 paystore resulted in a black screen where you would enter your password, no know work around other than reset if this happens.
click on playstore it should now start
Now login to your account and you should be go (it may take more than one attempt no idea why).
Now enable the update if previously paused
Update all Apps from the playstore before continuing, this may take a while give it 10 minutes
Optional: If you want remove Device+ID now (but I leave it as it is an easy way to get information).
You now have a working Playstore, if you have hung downloads then you may need to clear the cache for play services and the playstore I assume the unregistered might be the cause of them getting messed up.
Five
Install magisk:
Ensure you copied magisk zip and also the magisk manager apk to your phone, do not open, but click Done
Install the magisk manager, by locating the file in filemanager and selecting it.Reboot into fastbboot (bootloader) mode
Load TWRP:
Code:
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Install
Select the magisk zip from the filesystem and flash
clear cache
Reboot->System (If asked about installing TWRP swipe to install)
Allow the phone to fully boot
Suggested: Reboot the phone
Suggested: disable checks for updates as 5.7 does not work with this build.
Root is now setup.
Six
Installer th onPlus camera:
Many people want the one plus camera, copy the apk downloaed above to the phone.
Open and install via a file manager
Seven
resize Data (as it will be only 11GB), the partitioon will be larger, depending on your devide se we will use TWRP and resize2fs to grow it.
Reboot into fastbboot (bootloader) mode
Load TWRP:
Code:
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Advanced->Terminal
Code:
resize2fs /dev/block/sda17
Reboot System
Eight
Recommended, make a backup of your hard work:
Reboot into fastbboot (bootloader) mode
Load TWRP:
Code:
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Select backup
Select Everything except EFS and Modem (as I'm unsure exactly which you need)
enter a meaningful name
swipe to backup
click "Reboot System" -> Swipe to reboot
Once back in RR copy the backup off the phone
Eight
Start using your OnePlus 6 with RR 6.0, rooted and with GAPPS
Nine
Upgrading:
Upgrading is simply replacing the system partitions and only these paritions (tested going from 6/13->6/16->6/17 builds)
Boot into fastboot (advanced reboot options)
Now flash the new system files:
- fastboot flash system_a new_system-arm64-ab-gapps.img
- fastboot flash system_b new_system-arm64-ab-gapps.img
Load TWRP:
Code:
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Select Wipe
Advanced Wipe
Select Cache (and only Cache)
Swipe to Wipe
Reboot System
Ten
Restoring a Backup from TWRP
*This is a work in progress I can not work out how to do so safely*
Code:
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Select Restore
Select the backup
Select Everything (other than EFS and Modem!)
Got to the main menu
Select Wipe
Advanced Wipe
Select Cache (and only Cache)
Swipe to Wipe
Reboot Fastboot
Eleven
Night Light, Ambient Display, requires Root:
My suggestion is not to do this if you care abut battery as I've seen major drain (even with Ambient display disabled, testing this).
Copy the apk downloaded framework-res__auto_generated_rro.apk to /vendor/overlays
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /vendor
cp <location of file> /vendor/overlay
chcon u:object_r:vendor_overlay_file:s0 /vendor/overlay;chcon u:object_r:vendor_overlay_file:s0 /vendor/overlay/framework-res__auto_generated_rro.apk
Reboot
Comments:
TWRP does not boot if flashed onto RR (the TWRP logo appears but it will not boot), this is currently only go to protect you from using the OnePlus Recovery and messing up RR. Flashing TWRP does not affect booting into RR.
TWRP DOES handle encryption without an issue, even a wrong first pin is not an issue
TWRP making a backup of Treble ROM, backup everything for now: Data, Boot, System, System Image, Vendor, Vendor Image.
If you have problems with hung downloads from the Playstore: Pending hung PlayStore
Wifi can be flaky (appearently this is a more general issue as even stock had some issues, I fixed them by only using either 2.4 or 5Mhz wireless, if I had both active I had constant disconnects.
Worst case, to recovery, back to Oxygen 5.1.6 if you end up in a boot loop stuck booting to rtecovery, etc:
- flash-all.bat
Reboot into recovery (you need to do this with volume down +Power, or selecting from bootload):
In stock recovery select English
Select Wipe Data and Cache
Reset system settings->yes->done
Wipe Cache->Yes->done
Erase everything->This can not be undone, continue->done
back
Advanced
Reboot to fastboot->Reboot
Load TWRP:
Code:
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Copy the Oxygen full ROM back to the phone
Code:
adb push OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_010_all_1806070151_ad8b19ed516e78.zip /sdcard
In TWRP
Install
Select OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_010_all_1806070151_ad8b19ed516e78.zip
Go back to the root and select Advanced Wipe
Select Wipe
Advanced Wipe
Select Cache, Data and "Internal Storage"
Click on Reboot->Recovery (select Do not Install)
English
Wipe Cach and Data
Wipe Everything
Reboot
The phone will reboot same as the day it was made
If it does not then please refer to:
Mega Unbrick Guide for A Hard Bricked OnePlus 6
Note: Always boot fully at least once (I suggest twice and the first one is configuring android) before trying any steps above again.
Best of Luck, see a typo let me know

Thank you for putting so much hard work on this. Really much appreciated, will give it a try.
Might be a noob question, but due to treble, is the camera quality the same with the OnePlus app?

No.
Great rom, I especially like the fact that I can choose to install without gapps (prefer fdroid). One thing that is missing is ambient display, hopefully it will be fixed sooner or later.

Have you tried this yourself? Ignore the treble part of his comment, but why would stock cam on OOS vs stock cam on custom ROM give different results in terms of picture quality?

It will never be the same as OOS stock. Because aside from there is no device tree provided by OnePlus, they will never release the camera blobs due to licensing issues. Once we get a stable and proper gcam port. It'll be better than the stock OOS cam or close
is a beautiful Rom, will there be an adaptation for twrp? I have to use the gapps, because at the go version Wear OS does not work. and in the gapp version would be nice if the smartbar was running. Unfortunately, the kill app does not work ( I can not use xposed, then my bank app will not work anymore

TWRP not for now as treble is build as an image, but you should be able to flash using twrp just switch to img (though I have not tested that).
The GApps version is posted the 6/18 is working great, see second post.
As for Banking I'm unsure if any Treble based ROM passed the checks, as with or without root, as they appear as unsigned.
As for smartbar, I'll give it a try when I get a chance, as I do not use it personally.

How to fix it?
dont want to use my PC to start the system every time.

Most probably you get bootloop, because after the update the partition was encrypted, you need to either flash DisableForceEncryption_Treble.zip or make a backup and install fresh OS with the guide from scratch,

thank you
Thank you so much for this guide Without it I would have gone a little crazy trying to do a simple reset and update of my phone Saved for reference and I always come back.
Did google remove the option of adopted storage? I don't see it on my SM-T295. I rooted it so I was wondering if there is a Magisk Module that can make sd card act like adopted storage.
Thank you.
Can you tell how did you root your tab please.

Before Installing Magisk
Installing Magisk WILL trip KNOX
Installing Magisk for the first time REQUIRES a full data wipe (this is NOT counting the data wipe when unlocking bootloader). Backup your data before continue.
Download Odin (only runs on Windows) that supports your device.
Unlocking BootloaderUnlocking the bootloader on modern Samsung devices have some caveats. The newly introduced VaultKeeper service will make the bootloader reject any unofficial partitions in some circumstances.
Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking
Reboot to download mode: power off your device and press the download mode key combo for your device
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.
Go through the initial setup. Skip through all the steps since data will be wiped again in later steps. Connect the device to Internet during the setup.
Enable developer options, and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and is grayed out. This means the VaultKeeper service has unleashed the bootloader.
Your bootloader now accepts unofficial images in download mode
Instructions
Use either samfirm.js, Frija, or Samloader to download the latest firmware zip of your device directly from Samsung servers.
Unzip the firmware and copy the AP tar file to your device. It is normally named as AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5
Press the Install button in the Magisk card
If your device does NOT have boot ramdisk, check the “Recovery Mode” option
Choose “Select and Patch a File” in method, and select the AP tar file
Start the installation, and copy the patched tar file to your PC using ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched_[random_strings].tar
DO NOT USE MTP as it is known to corrupt large files.
Reboot to download mode. Open Odin on your PC, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP, together with BL, CP, and CSC (NOT HOME_CSC because we want to wipe data) from the original firmware.
Your device should reboot automatically once Odin finished flashing. Agree to do a factory reset if asked.
If your device does NOT have boot ramdisk, reboot to recovery now to enable Magisk (reason stated in Magisk in Recovery).
Install the Magisk app you’ve already downloaded and launch the app. It should show a dialog asking for additional setup.
Let the app do its job and automatically reboot the device. Voila!

This version of TWRP works on the Lenovo TB-X505F (wifi).
For the TB-X505X, see this thread. For the TB-X605F/L, see this thread.
For the TB-X606F/L, see this thread. The X606F/L is the second gen M10 and it uses a Mediatek SOC.
Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>

Before installing TWRP
Before you install TWRP, upgrade your tablet to the Android 9 (Pie) or Android 10 (Q) stock ROM.
This tablet shipped with Android 8 (Oreo), in which the bootloader did not allow unlocking. When you tried to unlock the bootloader, it gave this error message:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Installation
It is recommended that you also install Magisk. This will ensure TWRP remains your default recovery.
Step-by-step guide
download TWRP to your PC (see the Download section below)
download magisk.apk to your MicroSD or OTG device. Get the latest Magisk apk file here. Rename the filetype from apk to zip (for example Magisk-v22.0.zip)
if your bootloader is already unlocked, go to step 4. To unlock bootloader:
on tablet: go to Settings->System->About and press "Build number" 7 times to enable Developer Options.
on tablet: go to Settings->System->DeveloperOptions. Turn on: "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging".
connect tablet to your computer. Tablet will ask for permission to "Allow USB debugging". Tick "always allow" and select "OK".
backup any files you want to keep to an external device (MicroSD/OTG/computer), because the next step will wipe all your photos, files, google account etc on the tablet.
Now unlock the bootloader:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock-go
fastboot reboot
flash the twrp image:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
if you haven't loaded Magisk yet, go to step 6. If you have already loaded Magisk, you can just reboot and you're finished:
Code:
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
load Magisk (step one): reboot to recovery. Do not reboot into the system, because it will over-write TWRP with stock recovery. If that happens, go back to step 4 and start again. When you issue the reboot command (below), you have to immediately press the button combination to reboot to recovery (TWRP). Here are the steps:
issue the reboot command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
immediately press and hold all three buttons (Pwr+VolUp+VolDown). The tablet might reboot twice. Release all the buttons when you see the TWRP screen, or hear your PC acknowledge that ADB is connected.
load Magisk (step two): flash Magisk. In TWRP:
select "Install"
use "select storage" to locate device you stored magisk.zip on.
press the OK button
select the Magisk zip file
swipe to confirm Flash
when Magisk is finished, hit the "Reboot System" button
finished!
If you prefer to use button combos, rather than fastboot/ADB commands:
Vol Down + Power = fastboot mode
Vol Up + Vol Down + Power = recovery mode

Not that I know of. The bootloader accepts the command fastboot reboot recovery, but boots to system anyway.
Hello there, I've been looking how to install this on my slow tablet for almost like an hour. Could there be some tutorial or extended explanation to the process and installation, I'm such a noob, sorry.
This worked for me. Thank you for your effort and the TWRP!
Worked for me too - many thanks!
Can't wait for a custom ROM!

7. Release button after windows app detects device
8. Troubleshoot by checking windows device manager for the M10 appears as a Qualcomm device
I'm thinking about getting one of these tablets, but before I do so I'd like to know that the screen lock still works after installing TWRP.
This might sound like a crazy question, but my Samsung Tab A won't set a screen lock - pattern, PIN or password - once TWRP has been installed, and I'd rather not run into the same issue again.

Thank you! TWRP is working fine!
Stupid me flashed before I installed the Android 10 OTA, so I had to temporarily go back to stock recovery. Unfortunately beamingbadger's method didn't work for me.
This is how it worked for me:
Download the OTA via Lenovo's "Rescue And Smart Assistant"
The stock recovery image will be in the Download folder (default path: C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles) called "recovery.img"
Flash the recovery.img the same way as you would with the twrp img (adb reboot bootloader -> fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
fastboot reboot
Install OTA
Flash TWRP recovery + Magisk again (follow the steps from the first post, skip bootloader unlock)
The method I use to install OTAs is:
open Magisk App
select "Uninstall Magisk", then the "Restore Images" option
reboot to Android (you will have no root access and stock recovery is restored)
apply OTA
re-flash twrp and install Magisk
NOTE 1: if you've unencrypted your data partition, it will be re-encrypted by this process.
NOTE 2: the new Magisk App (v22) can be installed in TWRP by renaming the *.apk to *.zip. See the new install instructions.
What's involved with running gsi ROMs on this device? It's got the same SoC as my Samsung Tab, which runs them well, so I'm assuming that this tab will also, but I'd like to know if there are any traps that I need to be aware of.
I can partly answer my own question. It all went more smoothly than I expected: installing TWRP, Magisk and then LineageOS R Mod //LiR, followed by Disable_Dm-Verity_enfec.zip.
If I want to try other GSI ROMs, do I need to flash stock before trying another one? I've had some trouble doing that (won't boot) and it's possibly to do with encryption.

On my X605F I do this in twrp for a new GSI install:
format (not wipe) data partition. This is the option where you have to confirm by swiping.
factory reset. This clears the caches.
restore the stock boot and vendor partitions (from a backup I made). This is because Magisk can touch these partitions.
install the GSI system image
install anything else I need like disable_Dm-Verity, Magisk, gapps etc
I don't know what LOS R Mod //LiR does to your system. If it touches any other partitions, you should restore those to stock too.
Thanks for that. It gives me something to go on with. I've downloaded the stock ROM from lolinet, so I can grab the boot and vendor images from that.
I was able to try a couple of other GSI ROMs and I've settled on AndyYan's LineageOS 17.1 for now. The only serious installation issue I had - which I can laugh about in hindsight - was thinking I'd got myself into a very bad bootloop, when all I needed to do was let go of the power button after the Lenovo logo appeared.
On this tablet, there is no navigation capability at all (no navbar, no gestures, no setting to configure them) on installation, and I have to set it using adb. I suspect it goes back to PHH basic ROMs, but I don't feel like doing yet another install and testing right at this moment. Is this happening on the other tablets that you're testing, or is it unique to this one?
I just posted the v3.5.1 update to twrp.
It's also changed to landscape mode, as many of you requested.
Quick question, how do i apply new system updates with twrp installed? Should i not bother? Also, i forgot how to block check for updates!
will this allow flashing of stock roms download from lenovo recovery? ive been stuck on an ancient android 9 version because the ota updater fails.
This was a bit of a journey, and there seems to be some slight differences with the Mi 11 Pro that make it a little more tricky. Much of this has been covered elsewhere, so I'll just do an overview and detail the parts that caused me pain.
There are two ways to do this, with or without TWRP. With TWRP you flash a zip from recovery, without you flash a fastboot image. I've tried both roms, and the fastboot version appears to be missing some of the features, and the initial Google setup was clunky and didn't work well, so my recommendation is to use TWRP to install.
Installing TWRP:
Follow the official xiaomi.eu guide posted by @ingbrzy here and on their site, use the following notes in addition to this guide.
Set a passcode, without this TWRP will be unable to decrypt the storage and you won't be able to mount internal storage.
For the Mi 11 Pro, be careful how you boot to Fastboot. It took me several hours to figure it out, but there are two fastboot modes, one which has a blue FASTBOOT font, and one which has a reddish-brown FASTBOOT font with bigger letters. The one you want is the reddish-brown one, which can only be reached (afaik) by booting using the physical buttons (power and vol-). If you boot using ADB (as I was), it takes you to the blue fastboot screen and TWRP won't flash (you get the boot command failure message).
Since this is an A/B device, the high level context is that you first have to boot the phone using the TWRP image on your desktop, as it says in the guide (fastboot boot twrp.img). This is a temporary boot using RAM, if you reboot the phone TWRP will not be present.
Once in TWRP, if you want to make it the permanent recovery, click Advanced, then Install Recovery Ramdisk. If you don't do this step, any time you want to use TWRP it will be necessary to boot it temporarily from fastboot again.
Rom installation (TWRP):
Enable MTP in TWRP (see previous note about setting a passcode).
Copy the rom zip to an internal storage folder.
Install as normal in TWRP.
Magisk and root:
This is different from anything I've done previously. There are various tutorials about patching the boot image from the rom, and this is fine if you don't want TWRP, but if you patch it and install it, it will erase TWRP and you'll be back with the default Xiaomi recovery.
To install Magisk while preserving your ramdisk version of TWRP, use the "Install Magisk" option directly from the TWRP Advanced menu, then select "Use Magisk to patch boot", this step will give you root.
After rebooting to System, install the Magisk apk and the Superuser icon at the bottom should be active.
