Going back to being non-treble - Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers

Hi, i would like to know how to go back being non-treble. Tried flashing non-treble custom rom works on standard recovery, but i can't install Magisk because it can't mount /vendor. Tried using a treble recovery to install magisk, got bootloop. Anyone?

Try flashing Stock Rom through Fastboot/miflash.

No problem for me I flashed non treble rom from red Wolf treble twrp and it work perfectly

Magisk for non-treble and treble is different. Make sure your magisk is non-treble

I have both magisk the treble and non-treble one. Tried flashing the phone's stock firmware, then flash the recovery then the custom rom. Its still treble supported. Its seems that i am able to flash non treble roms using non-treble recovery. But if im flashing magisk on non-treble recovery. It cant mount /vendor so it failed rooting my phone. Also i tried flashing non-treble custom kernels it bootloop my phone. The only way to root my phone/ flash kernel is using a treble one and a treble recovery.
I guess once you go treble you cannot go back to being non-treble.

Help problem installing Magisk v.16 on AEX Oreo 8.1 ROM

HELP I have researched everywhere on the internet and I'm not sure what to do. I have a REDMI 4A wit AEX ROM OREO8.1 installed, TWRP 3.2.2.0 Official (for Redmi 4A on the twrp website) and tried to flash Magisk v.16. Error 1 mount vendor shows up in twrp. Many YouTubers says I should flash boot.img. I've already flashed the boot.img of the given AEX ROM OREO 8.1, but the same error occurs. I tried to search for answers, and what I found was that apprently aosp oreo ROMs usually are Treble ROMs. Downloaded Termux app and checked if ROM was treble = false = NOT Treble! Then others say I have to flash a modded vendor version of twrp. (Link: (add Https here)/androidfilehost.com/?fid=674106145207489212) Haven't tried it out just wanted to make sure if I should or not, bacuse the last time I tried to flash a different twrp, I had to flash the original one back using ADB...
Btw I had given up at some point and I flashed SuperSU successfully. Why Can I flash SuperSU but not Magisk?? I fully unrooted SuperSU and am ready to try flashing Magisk again. If anyone has any idea how to fix this, pleeeeeease tell me I need Snapchat to work while having root (yes I know I could've used Titanium Backup but that not the point rn)
Thanks in advance!!!

Yup, you must use TWRP Vendor if you want to use magisk in AEX Oreo.
Han usb Deccan if DHC dry j
Wrong section.
Install TWRP Pitch Black, then install magisk for treble rom
That version may have bugs try the newer versions
Try with Pitch Black recovery or Orange Fox recovery
Same for me and than i using BATIK Recovery for fix it
Solved Magisk error!
I've tried so many Recoveries and after trying more than 5 recoveries and about 7 Different ROM I finally got the answer.
So basically now that Redmi 4A is treble based, hence it has now a new Partitioning vendor based. For that you'll need new Recovery that support vendor mounting. I've tried the other Recoveries mentioned above and all of them are buggy. Go for the official TWRP vendor based Recovery. I found it here :
https://freaksterism.blogspot.com/2018/10/solved-cannot-mount-vendor-magisk.html?m=1
The steps are explained purely for Redmi 4A.
Use pitchblack recovery and all the problems will fix or install supersu and install magisk apk, grant root and install directly and then you can uninstall supersu with unsu zip

Right order to flash files for treble rom's ?

HI,
I'm only referring to the unlocked bootloader situation.
For Redmi 4X (santoni) we have recovery, firmware, kernel, rom, root (magisk), gapps files. I want clean install (no backup to restore). What is the correct installation order . At this point i have 8.1 oreo rom , orangefox (3.2.3 r8.3) twrp recovery and i want to try treble rom's. Is reversible (to go back from treble to clasic rom)?
I'm guessing:
1.recovery with treble support (orangefox3.2.3 r8.3)?
2.firmware
3.kernel
4.rom
5.gapps
6.root
7.other files
Thx.

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.

best custom recovery

Can anyone pls tell me best and latest custom recovery for our santoni (treble supported)?
I am using Orangefox.
Working fine for both treble/non-treble ROMs.
Latest TWRP supports treble and it has no encryption issues
Orangefox is better as twrp has issues with OTA updates on Lineage 15.1
may i know what is lazyflasher and no verify patch?

Lazy flasher is a flashable which is used to remove dm verity from devices
If dm verity is enabled it will cause bootloops in custom rom or even sometime stock roms too with custom recovery
So if you want to flash a custom for the 1st time
So flash this lazy flasher zip file
After wiping partitions
After flashing this flash rom zip then gapps
