Why flashing official twrp rather than keeping the unofficial one, more up to date ?

I had few problems I face with modified TWRP not booting up and stuff... So had used Official TWRP and works fine as long as I'm on custom ROM ( All the time ).

Agree, I never reverted to official twrp once i flashed modified twrp(3.0.2.19) when 3.5.2 released.
I flashed several roms(H2o, CM13,14,14.1, Oos, Miui), via modified twrp never had any problems.

Not to rain on your parade but I have a Honor 6X. And I managed to install Magisk normally. Just flash TWRP, latest Magisk and reboot. Any TWRP available for hi6250 with decryption support?

Huawei has changed the partition scheme along with encryption method totally thats why it is taking so much time.
Good News is devs are working on it and they are hoping that we could decrypt our huawei phone very soon.

Disclaimer:
WARNING, IT REPARTITIONS THE DEVICE SO DONT FLASH ON LOW BATTERY.
IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT UNLOCKING IS OR WHAT A PARTITION IS , BETTER NOT USE THIS.
!!! Whatever you do, it is at your own risk !!!
*************************************************************************************************************
How to Install
Flashing recovery
1. Flash Treble TWRP recovery given in downloads (important).
2. Reboot to recovery.
Re-partition & Treblize Device
Flash Treble Partitioner tool edited for Yureka Black in treble recovery. (Important Note: Only use the recovery given for download in next post (Twrp that has orange accents and splash) and the tool works properly only in it. Use this recovery whenever you use this tool. You can change recoveries later. Use of other recoveries to flash partition tool can put phone in a no-OS state).​
Follow the on screen instructions while using tool.​
Reboot to recovery.​
Wipe System and Vendor.​
If system or vendor aren't mounting change their filesystem to ext4.​
Reboot to recovery.​
From now you can flash Roms with Twrp or Any other recently built recovery ( Any treble twrp, Official twrp in twrp.me/ Pitch black recovery or (Twrp that has orange accents given after this post)).​
GAPPS and MODS work properly only when flashed with latest recoveries and I don't maintain them.
All actions performed here are reversible.
As far as i know, everything here has been used > 100 times for several years and works.
If you want to flash GSI
Flash the Rom zip​
Wipe system, Flash the GSI image to system & wipe data.
GSIs don't boot on android 11 right now. Please contact your Rom/Os maintainer for device and ask them to fix it.​
*************************************************************************************************************
IMPORTANT:
For ERROR: 7 & in TWRP on flashing non treble roms.
Garlic was not released with treble ! Non treble Roms which are based on android 10 and prior for garlic CANNOT be flash after partitioning,
You need to remove vendor using partitioning tool again on partition tool required recovery.You can then flash non treble Roms like before or change recoveries.

Does it require Data Format?
No
What GSI can boot?
All GSI depending on Oreo or Pie depending on respective vendors along with Sgsi like MIUI,Zui, OOS and other Sgsi ports. No GSI will boot on Android 11 (Ask device maintainers).
Why are non treble custom roms no longer flashing?
Because custom roms are made for 4.7gb system , unless the dev mentions 3.7gb system , they cannot be flashed along with treble.
If you want to revert to non-treble custom roms..
Reflash the Party tool and choose option to remove vendor partition.

I'm on Android Nougat (7.1.1) and have a Wiko U Feel Prime.
Am I able to flash this treble or do I need a 8.0 custom ROM to enable treble.
Also can I flash any gsi I found out there or do I need a specific gsi for this since it isn't an originally supported treble device

Hello , there are standalone vendor zips in the post .First you need to repartition , after doing it you dont need a custom treble rom, flash my treble twrp, then just flash the vendor zip + bootimage and any GSI (pie GSI for pie vendor and Oreo GSI for oreo vendor) after wiping data.GSIs are not bug free. If you have any doubts/want to know the latest development going on the device, I strongly suggest you to join the telegram group, there are few wiko u feel prime users in our group.

[GUIDE] TO FLASH ALPS VENDOR ON REDMI 6A

Note:I did not make this vendor the credits go to dinolek from 4pda. I AM JUST SHARING IT HERE TO HELP OTHERS. IF YOU WANT ME TO DELETE IT GIVE ME A MESSAGE I'll DELETE IT.
YOU YOUR SELF ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE THINGS YOU DO TO YOUR SMART PHONE.I AM NOT responsible.IF YOU POINT YOUR FINGER AT ME I WILL laugh AT YOU.
A warning!!!
This vendor is not compatible with firmware on official vendors from Redmi 6 and 6A themes
Patches and various modifications for the official vendor will not work on the OSS vendor, sometimes have a negative effect!
Kernels from the official vendor will not work on the new vendor. When installing the kernel from the official vendor, the firmware will not start!
short info:
The author of an unofficial vendor is Dinolek
This vendor is based on the ALPS source code from MediaTek based on Android 10
This vendor has significantly fewer problems than all the official
This vendor has been thoroughly tested and has a stable status.
OSS vendor advantages over official:
Default data encryption is missing
- There is support for Api2Cam (You can download Google Camera from Google Play or use the Google Camera GO mod)
- No problem with codecs on Android 10 and 11
- No problems with ring volume control on CERTUS and GSI firmware
- There is support for the Vulkan API (some games and applications will work a little better)
- CERTUS and GSI work much more stable than on the official versions of vendors
- There is video stabilization
- Official YouTube client works great at 720p 60fps
- Kernel 4.9.190
- Based on Android 10 ALPS (AOSP from MediaTek)
Kernel -https://github.com/CertusRepos/android_kernEl_xiaomi_certus
Tree-https://github.com/CertusRepos/android_device_xiaomi_certus/tree/alps-10.0
Requirements:Unlocked bootloader
Need android pie miui
0.4 is for custom Roms and 0.5 is for
gsi
Don't use this vendor for android 9 custom roms

Use official twrp latest version and delete the vendor from advanced wipe and install alps vendor 0.4 for revenge os after that the ROM should boot, if it still doesn't boot give a try for 0.5 vendor bcz some people were saying that this vendor was helping them boot ROMs

Are these vendor images up-to date?
Asking because the numbers, 0.4 and 0.5, do not represent the tree version (10.0)

Did those images work for anybody?
I am trying to get back from 64-bit vendor for Android 12 and flashing those over ALPS-Vendor-0.6-ARM64-cactus just doesn't work. The phone is not bootlooping, rather is stuck on boot.
Interestingly enough 0.4 patches just vendor partition, while 0.5 patches both vendor and boot
