ICSSGS IS BACK! How do I update?

Yeah, they're now team nyx. Apparently I can just like flash a from without clearing cache or formatting system or anything. Will this method clear everything on my phone? I'm really curious and don't want to lose anything. Thanks.
Just do a wipe cache and wipe dalvik and then install the rom, you won't lose anything.
Also, on safer side to nadroid backup first.

Pay attention because many people have bootloops. I think we'd have to wait for a new update..

Follow the THREAD there you will find all your answers from people who are flashing the ROM.
FYI every flash of a new ROM has a risk of loosing all data. That is why the DEV's say BACKUP before flashing
On their site, it says if flashing from ANY ROM, then you can just flash without cleaning or formatting anything. Have a look on their site. Team Nyx.

Well spotted you flashed it? If so via twrp with full wipe?
What about GAPPS is it 64bit version?
Are we downloading for LEO?
Jeez to many questions, just think someone might mess up.
I'll test and report back.

So I downloaded the EU rom, make sure you download for Leo, installed via TWRP with full wipe as per instructions. To be honest if your from uk no point its still english US not UK, For everyone else yea go for it no problems and Playstore included.
Is there no improvements from 6.5.1.0 version?
Also how do I flash twrp on my phone? Do I need root?
Thanks

http://en.miui.com/thread-118114-1-1.html
I just flashed this rom and i can confirm that it works well here in the uk on the ee 4g network no problems for me and very happy with this phone
Are there any instructions on how to install it?
I found TWRP, but need root to install it which i don't have.
Just boot to TWRP first via fasboot by using fastboot boot twrp.img command,
Then flash supersu,
After u got root access, install flashify and flash twrp
Is French included in this ROM? Probably not...
Will my apps be in French anyway or will it go like the UI?
Hi - I tried installing the most recent stable version for the Note Pro (xiaomi.eu_multi_leo_V6.6.3.0.LXHCNCF_v6-5.0) and it was completely unusable. Lots of system processes failing etc. Has everyone else had this experience or am I doing something wrong? I installed initially through TWRP, then also tried through MiRecovery.
Just got the phone and really liking it, but very keen to get it working more like a UK phone! Great to see there's people working on this!!!

It works fine for me in UK, full wipe in TWRP? You said first with TWRP and then Mi, did you reflash original recovery. I always find that after flashing a new rom I have to reflash GAPPS or I get the problems you describe.
I had been unsure if the 'Wipe All' would also scrub the ROM zip file, so did not do this first time.
This time I did wipe everything, which also resulted in the ROM zip file being deleted.
Managed to sideload it and everything is now working! Many thanks for the suggestion. And for future, should I be wiping everything, or is there a way to avoid the sideload?
Thanks

Like I said just reflash google apps no need for full wipe, use TWRP, keep a copy of GAPPS on your phone along with the rom so wiping won't be a problem should you need too.

[Guide] How to Flash Encrypted ROMs on a Decrypted Device (Without Losing Data)

Most custom ROMs for the OnePlus 5 are now supporting encrypted devices only. However, some users choose to keep their device in a decrypted state for MultiROM support and for other reasons. If you follow the steps below, you can flash any encrypted ROM on your decrypted device (without losing data) and your device will remain decrypted! I found this information in one of the many threads I've read (I don't remember which one) and thought I'd post it here to help others and for easy reference. Enjoy!
Follow These Steps:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Wipe caches, data, and system partitions
3. Flash encrypted ROM
4. Flash GApps
5. Flash Magisk
6. Flash no-verity-op5.zip (not created by me)
7. Reboot
8. Enjoy!
If you closely follow the instructions above, you can enjoy any ROM on your decrypted OnePlus 5 and have the best of both worlds! :highfive:
Note 1: If device gets stuck at OnePlus boot animation after following all of the steps above, hold the power button for 10 seconds to turn off device. Power the device back on and it will boot successfully into the ROM.
Note 2: Some ROMs are not compatible with MultiROM without the inclusion of additional commits by ROM developer.
After wipes, its Flash ROM.. Flash optional Kernel.. Flash Gapps.. Flash No-verity.. Flash optional root (magisk or SuperSU).. Flash optional Viper4Arise?
Is this confirmed working? Has anyone actually tried the process and confirmed that any data on the phone's internal storage is there?

Tested it yesterday with aosip and all data are on internal storage. Flashed validus today without no-verity-op5.zip and it worked too. Didn't lose data on internal storage...

I've found that flashing SuperSU (instead of Magisk) on encrypted ROMs often ends in a bootloop on my decrypted device. Flashing Magisk seems to be a requirement.
Not working for me. Tried with AICP release from 9/11. Wiped caches, system, data. Flashed rom. flashed gapps (tried stock/full/micro). Flashed magisk (also tried without). -> Bootloop
//edit
sorry i think i misunderstood the post. i thought i can flash decrypted roms on encrypted device xD is that possible too?

No, I believe your device must be decrypted to flash decrypted ROMs.

You are very welcome! Unfortunately, I do not know who originally created the verity zip. It has been passed around on XDA by many people.

The original zip was modified for making FBE optional by @snowwolf725. Click here to visit his original thread.
I have a quick question. I just unlocked the Bootloader on my Plus 5 and installed TWRP 3.1.1-1 and Magisk 14.0 on it. The firmware is 4.5.0 as I didn't let it update at all and did all this to the device upon first bootup. I did not decrypt.
I've tried installing latest RR release (final for N cheeseburger) and the install stops with errors. I tried a different rom in the same Android version (7.1.2) and get same results. MD5 checks out on both downloads.
Do I have to flash the latest OnePlus 5 update (full OTA 4.5.10) before flashing a 7.1.2 rom? And should I decrypt my device for easier flashing?
If no one answers, I completely understand and will search some more but this seems to be a cloudy subject that gets many different answers and I thought I would post it here. Thank you all in advance.

Yes.. U need to flash the latest firmware and then flash roms.. There's a thread for firmware.. Flash the whole zip would again give you stock recovery and you have to re do the fastboot stuff so makes no sense..

In addition to what is stated here, if you flash Magisk immediately after flashing the full firmware zip (no rebooting between steps), TWRP won't get replaced with the stock recovery. This is a great time saver!

Darn, well thanks for the reply
I just wanted to thank you for this thread. All of the information you provided helped me immensely. I was struggling with this device and flashing roms at first but one I unencrypted it, with your guide, everything worked great. I was going to leave it encrypted for easier flashing since most all the roms for this device are encrypted only. But I was having more issues than ever. And many, of the posts in here have also answered quite a few questions I had. This should be a pinned tread.
Anyways thank you again. Your thread is a must read for anyone with an Opo5.

I think yes, but I'm not sure
Was wondering the same thing, does anyone know if the red magic 3 is A only or an A/B device. I'm pretty sure it's A only, but I couldn't find any documentation online.
Its A only i think.
Hum... So Project Treble should work ?
That is interesting !
If I could install Resurrection Remix to this device and provided everything works it would become really almost perfect.
If anyone wants to try... If not I'll do it myself when I have time (in 2 or 3 days)...
Regards.
If the device has treble support, meaning a vendor partition it should work no problem, a/b partitioning is really not required for treble.
I tested treble using fastboot, since twrp had some issues, but it resulted in a bootloop and a corrupted recovery partition. I managed to fix it by following: https://forum.xda-developers.com/red-magic-3/help/stuck-fastboot-mode-t3937527/page9
Twrp gave me a mounting error for
/system_root, which is fixable by setting system to be read-only and then rebooting the recovery and re enableing read/write. Have not had the time to test using twrp and treble yet.
*I posted earlier in the day but managed to fix all the issues I had, so this a better summary :silly:

Well not necessarily, since I flashed the lineageos gsi through fastboot. (That may be the issue) I was having issues with twrp. I will try again today, although the chances are slim.

U should clear user data and cache after installing new system if you have bootloop problem
Make sure its A only GSI

Word of advice. Do not attempt to flash anything on this cell. You will regret it. I tried to flash TWRP over 6 weeks ago an it's been dead ever since. Even a cellphone repair center guy could not repair it.
You need to leave good enough alone.
People all around the world have been stuck in permanent recovery screens or fastboot screens like me.
It really is a very good cell the way it is ?

I have. 7 weeks an counting an no working cell yet. I bought an Mi9 an no issues with it. Easy to reinstall firmware. The red magic 3 is the most difficult to repair cell I have ever encountered. I wish they had something like miflashpro for it
Treble is working from chinese ROM with twrp make sure image is A/B because this device is A/B

Bootloop after flashing any kernel

Good time of the day, I need help with resolving the issue mentioned in title. No matter which kernels I flash, bootloop consistently occurs. I flashed them using TWRP and cleared all caches as required, but to no avail. Neither on a clean system nor on a rooted one do they work

ok I thought so, atleast flashing disable-dmverity makes the GSI boot to rom logo but nothing beyond that, it just refuses to boot anything but the latest Stock ROM, I think its time to throw away this device (SM-M215G) into the garbage bin. Man Shamshung ruined my device, now stuck on 1UI5.1!
