[GUIDE][REDMI 7A] Root with Magisk on Miui 11.0.7 Global - Redmi 7A Guides, News, & Discussion

Well, a lot of people wanting to root global miui 11.0.7 and not being able to... So I did it on my Global redmi 7a - MIUI 11.0.7 Global.
Simple though. Apart from whats being said, u can update Magisk to v20.+ after flashing
the 19 version, through the app Magisk Manager automatically installed after flashing.
Prerequisites & Downloads:
- Your bootloader must be unlocked (https://en.miui.com/unlock/)
- ADB and Fastboot -> I did on windows version, maybe can be done on linux...
- patched boot.img for miui 11.0.7 global
- vbmeta.img
- Magisk v19.3 zip -> place it on the root of your external sdcard
This is basically copied from cg730620's post [Guide][Redmi 7A] TWRP, Root with Magisk, Custom ROM [GSI][Pie] and Avedroid's vid
1 - Unlock bootloader and flash stock miui 11.0.7 recovery rom, using miflash 2017
CAREFUL! On the lower right corner check the first option, "clean all", or you may end up with a locked bootloader.
-> exactly the same from the quoted post from now on, what differs is the files and we are only flashing magisk v19.3
"2. Install Minimal ADB and Fastboot
3. Rename patched boot file to boot.img
4. Rename custom recovery file to recovery.img
5. Place boot.img, recovery.img, vbmeta.img in Program Files (x86)/Minimal ADB and Fastboot/ folder
6. Turn off your phone.
7. Reboot phone to fastboot mode by holding Volume-down button while pressing On/Off-button. You know you are in fastboot mode when you see a cartoon bunny.
8. Connect the phone to your PC via USB.
9. On your PC open command prompt and nagivate to ADB folder, or open command prompt window directly from right-click menu in ADB folder; just right-click on empty space and choose 'Open command prompt here'
10. In command prompt, enter the following commands:
Code:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Code:
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Code:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
11. Now reboot to recovery: Press Volume-Up button on your phone and enter the following in command prompt:
or just turn off the phone and reboot by holding Volume-Up and On/Off button (release On/Off when phone turns on, keep holding Volume-Up until you see screen of TWRP recovery)
12. Swipe to allow modifications. If TWRP asks for PIN, enter the PIN code you set for your unlock screen.
13. In TWRP choose Wipe > Advanced Wipe. Select 'Dalvik / ART cache', 'System', 'Data', 'Cache'. Then Swipe to Wipe.
18. In TWRP choose Install. Select the Magisk zip-file on your phone and then Swipe to confirm flash.
Reboot to system, open Magisk, update and there u go.
Same steps of the beginning of Avedroid's video, only with modified boot.img and Magisk Version
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSs08O6uGVI&t=324s
After 16:30 of the video he flashes a custom gsi rom which is not of the interest of this thread, just flash magisk.
Thanks to all who made it possible, especially Avedroid and cg730620
Post questions and answers here, please, NOT in PM.
Good luck!

Thank's it's work fine on custom gsi too, i just flash patch boot, vbmeta, finally install magisk success

I did everything right, however, when it came to installing Magisk, the following error occurred: "Updater process ended with ERROR: 1".
So I redid the whole process, but before installing Magisk I did the following: I went to Mount, I deselected the System partition and after that the installation proceeded normally.
Well, I don’t know if this is the best way to fix this problem, I don’t understand much of these things, but it ended up working for me.
Thanks for the post
I will do some tests to see if everything is working.

I wish to obtain root / access to magisk,
Wanting to know if I can do this without losing data (having to delete system data)
Thank you

Hello.
So I was trying to root my Redmi 7A - v10.2.1 with TWRP 3.3.1 but now I am stuck in a bootloop.
What I did:
1. Flash boot.img
2. Flash recovery.img
3. Flash vbmeta.img
4. reboot
Phone rebooted to system and TWRP was installed.
Then I booted to TWRP to install Magisk-v23.0.zip,
I went to Advanced Wipe, then wiped 'Dalvik / ART cache', 'System', 'Data', 'Cache'.
When I rebooted, it went into a bootloop, when I go to TWRP it says 'No OS INSTALLED".
What did I do wrong? And how to recover?
Thanks.

Lost root on Xiaomi Mi A1 after updating to Magisk 19.2

Hello everyone,
So this is the first time i had issue with magisk after the update.
Magisk Manager proposed for me to install new version of Magisk, so i did, after installation finished, it advised to reboot, so i did
After reboot, phone came back up just fine but Magisk was not installed. I tried to download zip 19.2 (19200) from Magisk Manager then installing that zip - also from Magisk Manager, but it would say this:
Code:
- Device platform: arm64-v8a
- Existing zip found
- Copying image to cache
- Unpacking boot image
! Unsupported/Unknown image format
! Installation failed
So now i don't know what do to.
I did notice however, that after the Magisk update, it seem to have installed newest OTA update (with security patches from May), which usually it fails to install, i guess due to unlocked bootloader.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT:
Managed to figure it out, it's been a long time since I've done this so i forgot that method I've tried is used to patch boot image, not to install zip file, my bad.
I booted into TWRP and extracted my current boot.img.
Booted back into the system and using Magisk Manager, I've patched the boot.img
Downloaded the magisk_patched.img to PC and from fastboot, flashed the patched boot.img.
Booted back into the system and *BAM*, got my root back!
Magisk is still the best! Thank you!

Similar problem here, but with Magisk 19.3.
Could you pass a link to patched boot image,you used? Can´t find it...
Thanks
I didn't download boot.img, it's best that you extract it yourself by using ADB.
Download adb software, there should be some tutorial here on forums how to find and get it (possibly https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/computer-setup-rooting-gcam-setup-t3731526) , but Windows 10 SHOULD natively have it (at least i did, i didn't have to install anything, already had ADB).
Now here comes the tricky part. I didn't remember this and i didn't write it down. When this happens again to me, i will be in huge .......
I'm sorry i can't help you, but try to google for info on how to extract boot.img from current installation using fastboot or adb.. not sure which, possibly fastboot.
Then you will have clean untouched boot.img from official repo. No need to wait for it to appear on xiaomi site.
If i find a tutorial, i will post it here. Please do the same if you find it before me.
GOT IT!!!
- Follow the previous tutorial if you do not have adb and fastboot, so you can install them. There should be plenty of tutorials how to install both of them
- After you installed it, download this version of TWRP https://dl.twrp.me/tissot/twrp-3.3.0-2-tissot.img.html to your desktop
- Connect your phone to your PC via USB cable
- Open command prompt (in Windows, hit CTRL+R then type in cmd)
- Change directory to desktop, for example type cd C:\Users\<username>\Desktop - replace "<username>" with your username ofcourse.
- Type adb reboot bootloader - it will boot to fastboot mode
- Once the phone is in fastboot mode, type fastboot boot twrp-3.3.0-2-tissot.img (keep cmd prompt open)
- It will boot into recovery, click on "Backup"
- Select "Boot"
- Click on Select Storage and there choose Internal Storage, click on OK
- Then on the bottom part of the screen, just swipe to right to extract boot.img (It should literally say "Swipe to Backup"). Pay attention to messages, it will display the directory where it will place the boot.img, but it will not be strictly named boot.img
- In my case, it's in Internal Storage/TWRP/BACKUPS/00bf23cc0904/2019-06-20-14-25-3_PKQ1/boot.emmc.win
You can either rename it to boot.img or just leave that name. But either way, open new magisk manager, select "Install" next to Magisk (not magisk manager), click on "Select and Patch a file", point to your new boot.img or boot.emmc.win.
Magisk will patch that image and show you the new location. Just download that file to your PC, on desktop, cmd again "adb reboot bootloader", and when it gets to fastboot mode, type "fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img".
You should be good to go!

[Guide][Redmi 7A] TWRP, Root with Magisk, Custom ROM [GSI][Pie]

Hello,
I finally managed to install a custom GSI Rom with TWRP and Magisk on my Redmi 7A. And I want to share a detailed guide for everyone who is struggling to do the same. Tested with MIUI 10.2.5.0 Global. Cannot guarantee for other versions.
WARNING:
You need to backup your data before installing. I am not responsible for any damage or loss that might occur. Proceed at your own risk.
Prerequisites:

- TWRP recovery
- vbmeta.img
- Magisk
- Permissiver_v4.zip
- Certification patch
- Treble Overlay file
- GApps (if needed)
Installation guide:
1. Download the files.
GSI Rom:

2. Unpack Minimal ADB and Fastboot to C:\ drive of your PC
3. Rename patched boot file to boot.img
4. Rename custom recovery file to recovery.img
5. Place boot.img, recovery.img, vbmeta.img in ADB folder
6. Turn off your phone.
7. Reboot phone to fastboot mode by holding Volume-down button while pressing On/Off-button. You know you are in fastboot mode when you see a cartoon bunny.
8. Connect the phone to your PC via USB.
9. On your PC open command prompt and nagivate to ADB folder, or open command prompt window directly from right-click menu in ADB folder; just right-click on empty space and choose 'Open command prompt here'
10. In command prompt, enter the following commands:
Code:

Code:

Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
11. Now reboot to recovery: Press Volume-Up button on your phone and enter the following in command prompt:
Code:
fastboot reboot
or just turn off the phone and reboot by holding Volume-Up and On/Off button (release On/Off when phone turns on, keep holding Volume-Up until you see screen of TWRP recovery)
12. Swipe to allow modifications. If TWRP asks for PIN, enter the PIN code you set for your unlock screen.
13. In TWRP choose Wipe > Advanced Wipe. Select 'Dalvik / ART cache', 'System', 'Data', 'Cache'. Then Swipe to Wipe.
14. Move the downloaded GSI file (*.img) to your phone. (Simply drag and drop in your PC's file manager to SD-card/memory of phone).
15. Flash the GSI Rom: In TWRP choose 'Install' > 'Install Image' and select the GSI. If you put the GSI on your external SD-card you first need to choose Select Storage > Micro SD card. After choosing the GSI file, at Select Partition to Flash Image choose System Image. Then Swipe to confirm Flash.
16. Reboot to Recovery
17. Move Magisk zip and Permissiver_v4.zip to your phone.
18. In TWRP choose Install. Select the Magisk zip-file on your phone and then Swipe to confirm flash.
19. Flash Permissiver_v4.zip the same way.
20. Flash GApps if needed
21. Flash Certification_Patch.zip.
22. Go back and choose Reboot > System
23. Fix big rounded corners on home screen:
Once you are in Android and in case you experience big ugly round corners around your home screen, put treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi7a.apk in System > Overlay directory. You need a file manager with root access if you want to do this from within Android.
24. Fix brightness adjustment issue (no auto-brightness though):
Enable USB debugging in Developer Options menu. To make developer menu appear in Android, you need to tap 7 times on Android's 'build number'.
Now open command prompt from ADB folder on your PC while your phone is still connected via USB. Enter the following:
Code:
adb shell
su
setprop persist.sys.qcom-brightness $(cat /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/max_brightness)
You need to allow adb shell to get root access or the command will throw an error. Your phone should show a confirmation dialog when entering the command. If it doesn't show the dialog, open Magisk Manager app and give root access for Shell in Superuser menu.
25. Enjoy!

For Magisk on stock Rom:
Your bootloader must be unlocked already!
1. Flash patched boot.img & recovery.img via fastboot
2. Reboot to TWRP
3. In TWRP, go to Wipe > Format Data > "yes"
4. In TWRP, flash Magisk zip
5. Reboot to System
Note: You will lose all your data on the phone. Do a backup of your personal stuff before proceeding.

15. Flash the GSI Rom: In TWRP choose 'Install' > 'Install Image' and select the GSI. If you put the GSI on your external SD-card you first need to choose Select Storage > Micro SD card. After choosing the GSI file, at Select Partition to Flash Image choose System Image. Then Swipe to confirm Flash.
16. Reboot to Recovery
17. Move Magisk zip and Permissiver_v4.zip to your phone.
18. In TWRP choose Install. Select the Magisk zip-file on your phone and then Swipe to confirm flash.
19. Flash Permissiver_v4.zip the same way.
20. Flash GApps if needed
21. Flash Certification_Patch.zip.
22. Go back and choose Reboot > System
23. Fix big rounded corners on home screen:
Once you are in Android and in case you experience big ugly round corners around your home screen, put treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi7a.apk in System > Overlay directory. You need a file manager with root access if you want to do this from within Android.
24. Fix brightness adjustment issue (no auto-brightness though):
Enable USB debugging in Developer Options menu. To make developer menu appear in Android, you need to tap 7 times on Android's 'build number'.
Now open command prompt from ADB folder on your PC while your phone is still connected via USB. Enter the following:
Code:
adb shell
su
setprop persist.sys.qcom-brightness $(cat /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/max_brightness)
You need to allow adb shell to get root access or the command will throw an error. Your phone should show a confirmation dialog when entering the command. If it doesn't show the dialog, open Magisk Manager app and give root access for Shell in Superuser menu.
25. Enjoy!

Somehow there is ver 10.2 and 10.4 missing 10.3 which is the one which I have.
What should I do?
Thanks very much for the detailed instructions!
I got it working with lineage-17-arm
Got the beta opengapps from...
https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/
Before copying the treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi7a.apk file, I had to type...
chmod a+r treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi7a.apk
mount -o rw,remount /
I followed the steps, and i got stuck on Redmi Logo, My bootloader is unlocked.
Tried to install 2 ROMs without success.
In the second ROM (Lineage 17) when i tried to install gapps, it gave me an error saying insufficient space.
i had to get back to Miui.

Before installing gapps, after installing the rom. Go to TWRP > wipe > "system" > repair > resize fs > reboot. Then install gapps.
It didn't boot after I installed gapps on lineage 16, but it was ok on lineage 17.
Redmi 7A Miui 10.3 Patcher file missing?
Does anyone know where I could find patched file for Miui 10.3, because there is only for ver 10.2 and 10.4, and I can't update miui on my phone that's why I'm asking. Thanks.
in TWRP, after instaling the ROM and trying to install gaps, or whatever I get:
Failed to mount '/system_root' (invalid argument)
I also can't mount system partition in mounting options.
What does it means?
.
After installing TWRP successfully I tried with both roms: lineage-16.0-20191017-UNOFFICIAL-treble_a64_bvN and lineage-17.0-20191117-UNOFFICIAL-treble_a64_bvN
it fails to install any apps (Magisk, permissiver, G-Apps, etc.).
Example from Magisk:
- Mounting /system
! Cannot mount /system
- Unmounting partition
...
Failed to mount "system/root" (invalid argument)
When I now try to reboot again into Recovery TWRP says "No OS Installed".
any help is appreciated!

Hello!,
it's possible with MIUI 11 (PCMINXM) ? or i need to roll back to MIUI10?
Camera records corrupted videos
Any idea how to make camera record videos? Photos work, but when I try to record videos, it seems to be recording, but when I try to play it back it seems corrupted (e.g.: showing length of the video to be over 104h long - so seems like indexing problem). Tried to play with camera_config.xml at root/vendor/etc/camera but no luck so far... :crying:
P.S.: The problem seems to be independent of the app used - Open Camera with Camera2 API enabled does not change a thing.

Same thing with mine, first time i did solve it installing gapps again, but a few days later the problem got back. I´m about to update to last firmware and see if it solves the issue, ill comment later.

Don't do that - it's too much work.
Fixed mine by editing camera_config.xml so it has only the config for the model and vendor of the camera that it actually has been fitted with. Now using Open Camera with Camera2 API everything works fine. :victory:
P.S.: So the cause of the problem really seems to be the conflict of different camera configs within the configuration file.
brother please! can you tell me how to do it? like a mini guide, i dont have magisk nor root on my phone. do i need to root it?
would appriciate it so much!!

Hi! I'm on Lineage 17.1 March 2020.
If I want to try out Lineage 18 - do I have do go back to MIUI global first before flashing Lineage with fastboot?
Other question:
Actually the internal storage seems to be encrypted. It is shown if I attached it to my PC but only some cryptical filenames are there - no chance to load anything to the internal storage for flashing it with TWRP. Any chances to "decrypt" it or make it "visible"?

i would recommend you to flash MIUI global first, because if somethings goes wrong you can't say whats the reason for the error.

How To Guide Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra Root Guide (No firmware download needed)

Welcome to my thread. Today I am going to teach you how to install a custom recovery on the device and how to recover the original boot files on the phone to modify them. After modifying those files you will have root on the device. A lot of time and effort has been put into getting this to work. The custom recovery that we will be using is TWRP Recovery.
Note: Modifying your device will void the manufacturer's warranty.
All modifications made to your device are done at your own risk and you claim full
responsibility if the device is damaged or if data is lost.​
First, we are going to enable OEM Unlock and USB Debugging. To do so, you will follow the steps below.
1. Sign in to your Mi Cloud Account on your phone.
2. Tap the “Settings” menu on your Mi 11 Ultra, then tap the “About Phone” option.
3. Tap the “MIUI Version” option several times until you see the “You are now a developer” message.
4. Tap the “Additional Settings” Menu, then tap the “Developer options” on your phone.
5. Activate the “OEM Unlock” option, then activate the “USB Debugging” option on your phone.
6. Tap the “Mi Unlock Status” option.
7. Tap “Agree” and then tap the “Add account and device” option on your phone.
8. Turn off your phone, then press the volume down button and the power button simultaneously to put your phone into fastboot mode.
9. Connect your phone to your PC via a USB cable.
10. Download the miflash ZIP file.
11. Extract the miflash unlock tool ZIP file. You will find the Mi USB Driver.exe file and the miflashunlock.exe file after extracting it.
12. Install the Mi USB driver on your PC.
13. Run the miflashunlock.exe file on your PC.
14. Tap the Agree button and then Sign in with your Mi Account after running the miflash_unlock.exe.
15. Click the “Unlock” button, then click the “Unlock anyway” button within the miflash tool to start the process.
16. Click the “Reboot phone” button after you see the “Unlocked successfully” message.
Downloads:
Unlock tool: https://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html
Additionally, we will need to have TWRP flashed to the recovery of the phone.
1. We will need to have ADB installed on the computer so download the 15 Second ADB Installer.
2. Run the ADB-Setup.exe.
3. Open a CMD terminal as an Administrator.
4. Type in the command: CD C:/ADB.
5. Type in the command: ADB Devices, make sure that there is a device showing up.
6. Download the TWRP.img to the ADB folder located on C:/ADB.
7. Make sure that you do not have a password or code lock on the device. There can not be any lock on the lock screen.
8. Type the command ADB Reboot Bootloader.
9. Type the command Fastboot Boot TWRP.img.
10. Navigate to the Advanced menu of TWRP and tap on “Install Recovery Ramdisk”.
11. Navigate back to the main menu then tap on Reboot and tap on Recovery.
Downloads:
15 Second ADB Installer: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...vers-15-seconds-adb-installer-v1-4-3.2588979/
TWRP image: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ztP266XjxteVk8pxcD7-sD-IxihmODPV?usp=sharing
Now we will copy the three boot files on the phone and make backups.
1. Navigate to Mount on the root menu or TWRP.
2. Select the System Partition and Data partition then go back to the menu.
3. Navigate to Advanced then Terminal.
4. Type the command dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img.
5. Type the command dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_a of=/sdcard/boot_a.img.
6. Type the command dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_b of=/sdcard/boot_b.img.
7. After all the commands have been entered you can now exit back to the system by rebooting to the system in the Reboot menu.
8. Next, we will install Magisk on the phone to modify the boot files, download the Magisk.apk file on your phone.
9. Open the apk and install the Magisk.apk on the device. You will have to enable Unknown Sources if you have not already.
10. Open Magisk and select install on the Magisk tab.
11. Under Method tap the Select and Patch a File and select the boot.img file.
12. Press the LET'S GO button after you have selected the file. (Make sure to note down the name of the Output file for each file).
13. Repeat steps 11 and 12 for boot file boot_a.img and boot file boot_b.img.
Downloads:
Magisk: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases
Now we will flash the boot files to the phone and we will be rooted!
1. Copy the files you just made from the storage of the phone under /Internal shared storage/Download/(Filenames) to the ADB folder located on C:/ADB
2. Restart the phone and once the phone screen turns off hold the Volume Down button to boot into fastboot.
3. Now this is where it is very crucial to ensure you know what each file corresponds to for the boot files. Type in the command Fastboot flash boot (Modified file name for boot.img).
4. Type in the command Fastboot Flash Boot_a (Modified file name for boot_a.img).
5. Type in the command Fastboot Flash Boot_b (Modified file name for boot_b.img).
6. Then type the command Fastboot reboot
7. Load Magisk and verify that it is indeed installed.
8. Boom rooted!
I don't get this I rooted much easier by simply flashing magisk.
I downloaded magisk zip
I then booted into fastboot connecting my ohone to the pc
I booted into twrp from fastboot with the command "fastboot boot twrp.img"
From twrp I simply flashed magisk.zip wiped dalvik and ART cache and rebooted the phone
Root done!
My question is now how can I update without loosing data.
I was thinking of installing the new rom via miflashtool without wiping data and then reflash magisk. It should work right?

In my testing I couldn't get my phone to root with Magisk. I haven't tested that but it sounds like it should work.
Look it is super simple, it can be done on every rom with an unlocked bootloader (this must be obvious)
Download the latest magisk.zip file on your phone
Download the compatible TWRP for your device on your computer and put it into your ADB and fastboot folder and rename it "twrp.img" (make sure you replace the file extension with the ".img")
Reboot your phone into fastboot
Connect the phone to the PC
Run the check command "fastboot devices" to check if your device is listed
Then run the command "fastboot boot twrp.img"
Your phone will now boot into twrp recovery and there is no need to flash it and overwrite the original recovery
Now give twrp the permissions to look into your folder by unlocking it at boot (password of pattern depends on what you use normally for your phone)
Now since the twrp is chinese you must change your language into english (3rd button on the right then click on the globe on the up right and select the language you want)
Now go into wipe and wipe manually cache and dalvik
Now go into your system and search for magisk.zip, flash it and wipe again dalvik and cache.
Reboot your phone
Now when you boot you must have magisk through your apps, boot magisk and complete the installation process.
Reboot again and enjoy!

Hi, xNAPx !
Thank you for this tuto, but i have a problem :/
At this step, twrp is booting straight on the menu, no password asked, and so, no access to data :/
Do you have an idea please ?
(i'm using xiaomi.eu_multi_MI11Pro_MI11Ultra_21.12.8_v12-12-fastboot)
I believe this is a known issue, there is a problem on some versions of twrp with encryption, to me never happened. What kind of screen security do you have on your phone?

You can try 2 things, remove the screen lock protection or inject a different version of twrp, I never had this problem as I boot twrp via adb

How To Guide Root and flash any GSI on Redmi 11 Prime 5G (light)

First things first. What you need:
Platform tools
MIUI 14 Beta Stable Stock ROM
Android OTA Extractor
Device updated to MIUI 14 Beta
Magisk app installed on the phone​
Step 1
Extract MIUI 14 zip on your PC. Move payload.bin to Android OTA extractor folder.
Open terminal in the same folder.
Enter following command:
Android-ota-extractor.exe payload.bin
Let it extract.
Step 2
Root your phone via Magisk app.
Move the boot.img extracted from payload.bin to you phone's internal storage.
Open Magisk app.
Click install, select file and patch.
Once done, move your patched boot image to your PC and put it in platform-tools folder.
Reboot device into bootloader.
Open terminal in platform-tools folder.
Enter the following:
cmd
Press ENTER
fastboot flash boot patched_magisk_(press TAB to autocomplete).img
Let it finish. Reboot. Check if device is rooted.
Step 3
Download a GSI of your choice. I personally tested Pixel Experience Base/Plus and Evolution X by ponces. Extract and put the img file in platform-tools.
Reboot to fastboot.
Enter the following:
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot erase system
fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a
fastboot flash system yourgsiname.img
fastboot -w
If you want root just enter (you might actually need it, check footnotes)
fastboot reboot
If you don't, then flash the stock unpatched boot.img and reboot.
The process is done. Footnotes:
Set up the device offline. Go to phh treble settings. Select Misc.
Install ims package check both:
Request IMS
Force 4G Calling....
Reboot
Now continue setting up and logging in with your google account. SMS verification should work now.
The problems:
Incoming calls will go through on the callers side but won't pop up on your phone. Some say it might be fixed by using the Truecaller app as default phone app but I haven't tested.
Refresh rate is finicky. You need root for this. Do the following:
Download the Dfps magisk module. While you're at it download the Universal SafetyNet bypass module as well. Enable Zygisk in Magisk app and install both modules. Reboot. Should mostly be fixed now.
That's all folks.
