Guide to install Android 8.1 or 9 custom ROM?

The question speaks for itself,I cannot find really any accurate ways to get started because I once tried to install Oreo beta (before official was out) and flashed a Oreo recovery onto Nougat and bricked my phone,and the only way was to use DC Phoenix so for now I have kept my phone on EMUI 8 stock.
So if anyone can tell me the steps to install let's say an Android 8.1 Treble ROM or Android 9 when it gets good as a daily driver,I know that you need to do the following things:
-unlock the bootloader
-install a recovery
-flash a ROM through fastboot or through recovery and after that flash Gapps and a modded version of Magisk
That is pretty self explanatory,but I have seen like that you cannot use TWRP since there is a problem when wiping data and that you need to have Huawei stock recovery and some important things to consider since I see it is pretty easy to brick these phones if you don't follow instructions but since there isn't really clear instructions to do some of these things,I am asking here if anyone can explain to me.
And yes,I do have my bootloader unlock code since as I stated,I tried to do this before.

And if I have downloaded a zipped ROM instead of an GSI,I do the same steps but in TWRP I flash the ROM with the Gapps and Magisk,right?
Also,can I use NoCheckRecovery for Oreo when I need to wipe data instead of stock recovery since I think it would come in handy if I would need to re-flash something through that without Huawei checks and it seems to be easier to find?
And I flash the recoveries to recovery_ramdisk,just to be sure,I know some things did change with Oreo so I am asking?

Oh,I thought Pixel Experience ROM was meant to be installed through recovery,bloody hell pardon me.
Never mind then.
I am gonna wait for Android 9 to get a bit more stable and that official OpenGapps gets released and then I am going to install it.
Thank you very much for helping me!

Ok, it clearly says that that Rom is discontinued, read the last post.
Use a gsi from the treble enabled device development forum and flash it with fastboot (yesyou can use android pie 9.0 gsi's as well as long as they don't say sGSI on it.

Pie gsi
Hi all,
I have installed Pixel Experience (Oreo) gsi ROM no problem. But if I try to flash any Pie gsi ROM it just goes into a boot loop. I flash system via fastboot and seems OK. Reboot and it just boot loops a few times and goes to the recovery screen that prompts to download and install the standard system.
Has anybody come across this or have any suggestions. I have tried a few different Pie gsi ROMs and same thing happens.
Thanks
Mick

If you are on open beta, you have to do clean install, wipe everything except internal storage, so you will lose data

You can simply dirty flash OOS 5.0.6 if you have TWRP and you will have stock recovery.

Can I flash this using twrp without encryption like a custom ROM?

I don't think so, moreover, it will replace your twrp recovery so you'll need to flash it back.

Can I just flash it from twrp, with not encrypted data, obviously after cleaning just data and system, without formatting?
(I don't care if recovery gets overwritten).

Help with Treble ROMs

I have the PRA-LX1 with already unlocked bootloader and got it rooted with TWRP + Magisk before the last OTA.
I'm not a beginner with rooting this phone but only got Problems with installing any Treble Rom (tried Lineage and Aosp) and every try ended with a bootloop I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
So please can anyone give me a step by step instruction?
Which Treble Rom is a good one and recommended for this phone?
Which TWRP do I need?
And how exactly do I flash them correctly? What do I wipe?
Sorry for this noob questions but I failed so many times with Treble and don't want to do the reinstall with erecovery for the 10000 time :crying:
Thanks

I googled it, pretty much every source says that you require a custom recovery in order to flash a GSI or any custom ROM.

Oh, well that's pretty cool. Either way, I just tried flashing Official Resurrection Remix GSI with no luck. Stock recovery, attempted to flash through fastboot and it just gives me a bootloop, exactly like TWRP does. Followed the guide you linked to etc, just keeps rebooting.

Well, I finally got it all working.
You know the risks, don't blame me if something goes wrong, I did these exact steps to manage to root my phone without breaking it. C432, Dual SIM and PRA-LX1.
Have everything stock before following this short guide: Firmware, all stock recovery etc.
Installing the ROM and GApps
First, download necessary GSI files.
(Personally I got Official Oreo Resurrection Remix, here).
(Although you could find yourself using virtually any other GSI, I like the look and feel of RR, though I'll be changing my boot animation with root). Many people would probably recommend you to use something like an AOSP, or LOS which I was also considering on installing. They may also come bundled with GApps, which would negate the later need for installation or download of separate GApps.
This may include GAPPS but you should understand this from the GSI page, so for example on RR I had to download both the latest base ROM .img and the micro GApps.
So to do this I had to use the right architecture (For the P8 Lite 2017, this is ARMx64, do your good research, since my problem was getting this wrong with my PRA-LX1 (Mine was A-ONLY), this stands for the base ROM and GApps.
After this I actually didn't use TWRP as user @ppdr07 advised. I followed the guide he linked us to and did as so, without following the -u command, since it wasn't working for me (didn't affect anything, try it, if it doesn't work, just take that bit out).
The ROM ended up installing and posting through, everything set up perfectly.
After this I was like "Huh, so what now? How am I to flash GApps on this without TWRP?". I went for it and booted into fastboot where I flashed Askuccio's TWRP for hi6250 devices. At this point I worried that the ROM wouldn't post again - though it did, so from there I enabled dev options and switched on advanced power options just for ease of usage. From there I rebooted straight to recovery which posted fine, too.
At this point, you need to flash the GApps. Go for the one that the original GSI page recommends. Flash it to the System Image partition. Don't wipe anything. At this point I recommend that if you realise that you forgot to transfer any files to the SD card, you should do it from the system. It works better compared to the MTP on TWRP. Either way, that should work properly. Now, reboot the system, and it should work perfectly.
Enjoy, it took me months to get to this point lol
Rooting Your New ROM With Magisk
(Before installing this consider the other root options. I believe there's SuperSU and another possibly that I'm less aware of. Either way, in my opinion Magisk comes with the most benefits so I'll be helping you out with that).
After this I ended up flashing Magisk in order to use Snapchat and other apps similar to it. Firstly you'll want to set up Google stuff which has been newly added to the system, and then you'll want to go to chrome and download the Magisk Manager .apk from here. The main and most reliable place to get it is from the creator's project page found here, all main links stand out in the middle fairly well.
(Remember to enable downloading of unknown apps for Chrome in it's app settings, otherwise it won't download or install.)
If it still doesn't work at this point, I ended up holding down on the Magisk Manager link and pressing Download Link (or something to that effect). From this point just install it as you would any other out-of-store app.
Now, you'll need to download these two files from the Magisk page onto your computer: Stable Installer and Uninstaller. Next, while booted into Android, copy them over to either Internal or External storage and when it's done, reboot into TWRP again, either by advanced power menu or using the button commands for recovery. Personally, I think I need the power options with this phone.
In TWRP, simply go to Install, navigate to /externalsd/***[WHEREVER YOU PLACED YOUR MAGISK FILES]***, then install the Magisk installer .zip. If unchanged, the filename should be something like "Magisk-v17.1.zip". Install it, then give rebooting a go. Hopefully it'll post, if not, go back into TWRP and run the Uninstaller .zip, it's saved me a bunch of times.
Unblocking Apps That Say Something Like "Your Phone is Rooted or Modified, no access blah blah blah..."
(Snapchat is the example used here. It won't work upon login if you don't follow this step. Some apps don't work with this alone however, though somebody may have produced a separate guide or easily installable Magisk module with a solution for it. One that won't be fixed singularly with Magisk Hide is Google Pay).
After posting, if you need to unblock Snapchat or something, go to Magisk Manager (which should now be more green), open the top left context menu, tap on Magisk Hide, and search "snap" until you see the Snapchat logo pop up, then select it, then back out with the back button. It should stay selected in Magisk, and the app should now be usable and shouldn't give you any annoying errors, if not give it a reboot and see if it's solved.
Good luck!

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.

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.

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.

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.

One UI 2 Beta - Rooting and installing working TWRP after Upgrade

Hi!
After flashing the One UI Beta to your S9/S9+ you can flash the latest TWRP on the same way through Odin jow you did it on Android Pie.
After flashing TWRP you need to wipe data.
Next step is to flash the latest magisk zip 20.1.
Than you have to flash the zip from here. This will modify the TWRP and make it fully working.
No more bootloop after flashing TWRP.
All credits goes to @Alucard for this great tweak.

Nope

This is the magisk patched kernel for the 960 Beta.
Flash it through twrp in "boot".
Flash the zip again and boot.
If it doesnt work than go back to twrp and flash the magisk uninstaller zip, than the patched kernel and it should boot.
IMPORTANT!
THE FIRST BOOT AFTER THE MILTI DISABLE ZIP NEEDS BETWEEN 3 TO 5 MINUTES!
