Pixel Dust Rom GSI( 2019/03/26) (help with magisk) - Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers

Hi there i have successfully installed Pixel Dust Rom with newest DFkReborn kernel on my Nokia 6.1 Plus. For some reason i cant root my mobile (cant instal magisk). Another problem is with OTA updates(not working). Does this rom gets OTA from rom developers or i have to wait for next build? Can any one write instruction how to proper instal magisk on this rom? cheers

I'm sorry, I can't answer your questions, I just wondered where you found that ROM. It doesn't show in the list of ROMs on this forum when I searched through.

I don't think that GSI's support OTA. And the XDA post for that GSI doesn't mention anything about OTA.

It isn't a rom for our device, it is a treble generic system image (GSI) which can be installed on any device with treble support (like ours).

Can you provide instruction on how to disassemble the phone. Also where to order spares from. The digitiser on my Storm is cracked and Wileyfox want to charge me the price of a new phone to replace it.

Eh, sorry mate, I don't know how to disassemble the device and no one else sure as hell knows how to do it (at least on other websites). There are only reviews and unboxing experiences of the Wileyfox Storm and guides on how to flash ROMs, root and recoveries, etc. But some member will help you out, surely! If nobody seems to be knowing the issue, pm a forum moderator so that he/she can guide you to some links/methods. :fingers-crossed: Best of Luck!

Downgrade to android 6.0 marshmallow
Hello everyone, well recently my phone updated to android 7.1.1 and I didn´t like very much, so could help me and tell me if is there a way to go back to android marshmallow 6.0, just like it came when I bought it. Is it possible and does anyone know how to do it?
Okay so im trying to get lineage Os on my phone, this OS isn't working at all i get in bootloops etc. So i tried AOSP extended and i managed to get this working. But when i try to install gapps or try to flash Super su or magisk it returns error 1. The problem is in the recovery probably. So i tried to flash / boot a different TWRP version but all of the other versions give me this error: FAILED (remote: dtb not found). I would appreciate any help i can get i am hardstuck because i cant get a proper working TWRP recovery working and the only rom i am able to flash is AOX but without gapps that isnt worth much.
Thanks in advance.

First of all, what build of LineageOS are you trying to install??? If it is dated 12.07.2017 or 05.07.2017 - it won't work at all. That builds are broken. Use 28.06 or 21.06 build.
Secondly, what TWRP version do you use? I installed LOS via TWRP 3.1.0.0.
Newer version is available now.
And what bootloader version do you have on your Storm. I mean what stock ROM was installed before installing TWRP.

It seems to me, AEX is pre-rooted and comes with magisk pre-installed. When I installed that - only gapps were necessary.
Gapps need to be installed immediately after installing ROM, without any reboot.

I was using 05/07 build so that explains that. Im using TWRP 3.0.3.0 Kipper, but i can't find newe TWRP builds for the wileyfox storm, if you could give me some links that would be great. Stock rom was android 7.1 i believe and bootloader version is 'kipper-N-g2253387'. When i installed AEX via my (probably corrupt) TWRP recovery it says it also flashed Magisk but once the phone starts and i go to the magisk app it says im unrooted and so does rootchecker say. I think my biggest problem is with the TWRP recovery. If you could get me the download links of the versions your using that would be great.
Here you can get TWRP

Thanks to kligli from 4pda
Maybe the bootloader from 7.1-wileyfox is not compatible with Lineage OS.
Before flashing TWRP and LOS, I rolled back to COS 13.1.5 official Wileyfox ROM via fastboot. So I don't really know whether it is compatible or not.

So i flashed the twrp 3.1 and that works, it installs gapps now and no error with lineage OS, im gonna boot phone soon hopefully lineage will start to, i didnt know what gapps to flash but i tried the arm64 because i read it somewhere. But isn't the Storm ARM?
Use ARM64 - 7.1 - nano or pico GApps. Lineage official site said it works even without any GApps, but I have not tried that.
So I just bought a wileyfox storm few days ago and am on 7.1.1 what is the rooting method thanks.

[UNOFFICIAL][8.0.0]OREO[LINEAGE-15] Not booting up

Well you all would have already know that-↓
Lineage 15 is released for our Z2 Plus and is also available for download
I tried to install that rom
But I was getting error 7 and then error 6 !!
But Somehow I managed to get rid from it installed the rom successfully as well as gapps but it's not booting up
:crying:
And yes I how did I manage to install it?
I was getting error 7 and error 6 then I opened the "update script" file into the rom and deleted all asserts coding and even then it did not work. So after trying for 2 to 3 times it installed easily but was not booting up.
Just want that if you guys can check it and somehow it boots up

How did you finally manage to install the rom? Did you succeed? You did not write clearly. And where are the files located?
Wait for Oreo releases of the XDA Devs here instead of flashing untrusted stuff from the internet.
Z2 Plus is not officially supported by Lineage OS for now, so possibility of getting early builds is kind of unlikely, so please verify the source of the download once and refrain from flashing anything thats not released by our devs for now
I am new to XDA and That's why I was not permitted to add any external link to the rom (files) itself.
If I still can add external link so please tell me how to do it
And yes I how did I manage to install it?

I have read it all and That's why posted a question here so that you guys can somehow make it bootable because I am too excited and Oreo is ported without boot related bugs even for the older device like Moto x 1st Gen then why not for our device?

calm yourself and just gently show patience.
the devs here on XDA are working on Oreo, check the Offical AEX thread, Davide stated that the next build is going to be Oreo.
I wouldn't flash any ROM without having the ability to see the source code atleast. The site you found the ROM at does not look legitime to me at all.
Who knows what it will do/did to your device.
I mean if you dont care..

General Questions about the P Smart from a Huawei Noobie ;) (serious)

Hi
I'm new to Huawei Devices and have a few questions about the P Smart because I want to get it soon.
Is it fully treble supported?
How to unlock its Bootloader?
If it's fully Treble supported can I install every treble ROM that supports that CPU family?
How is EMIUI?
What Custom ROMs do you guys/girls recommend (In this forum and treble forums)
What settings should I change EMEDIANTLY after getting my Device/EMIUI
Any Xposed/Magisk Modules recommended for this Phone.
SuperSU or Magisk for EMIUI Stock?
Thanks in advance

Hi lots of response from your questions I see! Lol. Are you still on psmart? Where have you got to with it?
My experience: MOS =ministry of solutions unlocked my bootloader, I paid 9£ for them to downgrade firmware and give me unlock bl code, I've been around for sometime but I struggle with fastboot, dev terminology and new devices esp Huawei!
I got twrp+magisk mostly for viper4. Although I'd like to use quick step and xposed although I'm reading people have probs with xposed and it's not compatible I might be reading old threads but I ain't willing to risk a brick. From what I see thus far there isn't much in the way of development and it seems like those using custom ROMs are desperate to get back to stock because it's so stable.
Be good to hear what progress you have made

well for the both of you xposed beta 4 test 1 that can be downloaded direcly installed from xposed gitbub works but not all the modules will work and some modules will bootloop and brick you
there are 0 P smart devs... there are devs like askuccio and hacky86 making treble GSI for our specific kirin soc hi6250 but not for P smart
the most stable custom roms are omnirom and RR and lineage 15 maintained by
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/roms-openkirin-aosp-collection-t3828806
project openkirin... they are stable.. but the camera doesnt have AR althought it is stock camera.. wifi bridge and app twin won't work and other small bugs like i cant use the camerra to scan barcodes to make payments in my banking app.. the rest of the p smart threads are dead.. global search in xda for openkirin, kirin659 , hurupdater, hi6250.. cos our only custom roms are treble GSI's

TIP--- if you cant get to boot using the xiaomi.eu rom with the latest vendor file like 9.3.14 etc
consider using the xiaomi.eu rom with the earlier pie vendor like 8.12.23 because it also boots most of the Nfound Roms.
Thanks to Germano1980 for introducing me to his work
Cheers!:victory:
I always watch his videos on YouTube to see what he's throwing (of course not understanding anything because it's all in Russian).
You forgot AOSiP which is the best one right now as everything works even has gestures too. Also mention that if people cant get to boot using latest vendor file like 9.3.14 etc that they should consider and earlier pie vendor like 8.12.23 as that boots most of these. Good post mate keep it up

That's only applicable with stock roms mate not custom and GSI.

Cause it's better than stock for flashing. I don't know the exact reason is but it is a better base. The vendors also seem to be flash friendly

Can you just downgrade OOS to Android 10 and then flash TWRP or is it impossible?

Hi, I recently bought an used OnePlus 8 Pro and it was already updated to Android 11. After repairing it, I discovered that it's not possible to run TWRP on this firmware version.
Couldn't I just go ahead and downgrade the OS in order to run TWRP on it or is it basically impossible like on the latest Samsung Galaxy S-series devices?
Would be glad if someone could answer me that question. I kinda tried to boot into twrp because I was too quick to read the thread but it just caused my device to run into Qualcomm Emegency Mode.
What do you need twrp for? If it's just to root and almost everything else... It can be done via other means.

Hmmmm the way I've seen a lot of custom roms... They're installed/flashed partition by partition in bootloader via fastboot.....I guess if you have to use twrp to flash the entire rom you do need to downgrade to os 10.

Thank you for your response. i think i just did not catch up the latest progress. Would you please help me find the instruction about how to flash rom in the new way you mentioned ? thank you so much.
And i still have the same question , is it necessary for us to downgrade to android 10 and then start flashing rom.
Look at the roms in the subforum here:

I just looked at some popular ones like Pixel experience and Lineage and they're both flashed in this way. Look at the opening post where the instructions are... Seems like Pixel Experience there's a batch file that flashes the partitions but it's essentially done this way without twrp.

Because it requires installing rom from recovery, so I get stuck here.
The problem is the device enters crash dump mode when switched to recovery mode. I guess the reason is that my p8pro is in andriod 11 before i flash recovery. now the device can enter android 11 normally but the recovery don't function. So I am here to ask is it necessary for me to downgrade to android 10 to solve the problem.

Thank you for your reply, it help me a lot. i have already flash my device lineage os . Regarding the problem i mentioned in my last reply, it seems the install guide is for android 10. As for android 11 , i think it needs a payload dumper to extract all files and flash them one by one.

I think the answer depends why do you need twrp. If you just want to flash a rom like me, you can find a custom rom supporting android 11,for example lineage os and you can flash all files it requires without twrp.
If you want to flash a android 10 rom or you just want to flash twrp , i don't know how, maybe you should downgrade.
