Tip for those upgrading without flashing via factory image. After you flash cache.img boot into your custom recovery of choice and wipe the cache partition. Otherwise you're going to be stuck on the lollipop circles for a long time. This is specific to nexus 4.

I'm using the latest Simple AOSP for Nexus 4 (Android 5.1.0), which was built today, with the LMY47O binary file, no random reboot so far.

If you get ANY Errors during Updating via the flash-all script - try to update ADB itself. I was using an old version and got errors until i downloaded and used a new ADB version.

Since when twrp is mandatory to flash a ROM ?
I don't get what do you mean by partially. And link is working fine.
Edit: my bad, link was broken, updated.

flashed all of this twice and it just boots to twrp and asks for a password not i did flash twrp first from the other forum for the moto g fast

Make sure you have downloaded the build after I updated the link.
About twrp asking for password, expected behaviour after a data format without booting a ROM to populate encryption bits.

Ok so I just flashed back to stock and started over but now it just reboots on repeat I’m going to try to reset everything again and start over

I installed Magisk and TWRP. TWRP is not required to flash all ROMs, it just works better under normal situations.

Are you in fastboot or fastbootd?
To get into fastbootd, you need to type
'fastboot reboot fastboot' in a cmd window while you are in the regular fastboot screen.
Then flash the rom.

good afternoon onmi rom and twrp root works correctly I want to increase the volume of the headphones vendor / etc mixerpath when saving changes I get an error some solution thanks

Couldn't get this working. Probably because my rav is LATAM distribution (rav, not rav_t). When flashed from fastbootd, I got a bootloop. Thankfully TWRP is working fine, so I could boot stock from the other A/B slot.

Success!
I had a number of issues while flashing this, as follows:
- I flashed TWRP before doing anything to attempt to flash Omni. As it turns out, fastbootd doesn't work correctly with TWRP installed, so I had to restore to stock before trying again.
- The Omni GSI has to be flashed to slot A by doing fastboot set_active a before you try to flash the partitions.
- When flashing the 20200823 build linked in OP, using the instructions listed, I got a "not enough space to resize partition" error. I attempted to resolve this by doing fastboot delete-logical-partition system_a and fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a - this was the wrong thing to do as it caused an issue mentioned earlier in the thread ("no such file or directory" when trying to flash those partitions), and I restored to stock to resolve this.
- I was able to get the partitions flashed by doing them in a different order than listed in OP. I successfully flashed by doing boot, product, system, vbmeta in that order.
- Once the partitions were successfully flashed, rebooting the device caused it to bootloop, showing the Moto logo for a few seconds and immediately rebooting. I resolved this by flashing an older boot.img from the Telegram channel (attached to this post). Flashing the older boot.img with the product, system, and vbmeta from the 20200823 build linked in OP got my device booting.
Thanks to the folks on Telegram for the help in getting this going.

Great work

Have you tried updating your fastboot binary? I used to use minimal adb and fastboot until this device. I had the same issue, and had to update the binary to get it to work properly.

Question Help restoring Stock ROM [SOLVED]

So... I tried to unlock/root my Redmi Note 11 (SPES), and something went wrong. So now I am trying to fix it, restore to the stock ROM to try again.
How I broke it:
1. Unlocked the bootloader.
2. Installed probably the wrong TWRP (I installed twrp-3.6.2-12.1-21.06.22.img from https://razaoinfo.dl.sourceforge.ne...ld/Recovery-Spes/twrp-3.6.2-12.1-21.06.22.img )
3. I tried flashing said img using fastboot (fastboot flash recovery_a <img>, followed by fastboot flash recovery_b <img>, then fastboot boot <img>
4. Got into TWRP, flashed Magisk.
5. Got into ROM. Everything seems to work, I have root. Next day, I realize my bluetooth is not working.
Next day, I tried flashing another TWRP that I found linked in this forum (twrp-3.6.2_12-0-spes-Jabiyeff.img, downloaded from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-redmi-note-11-and-how-do-i-flash-it.4466177/ post #4).
6. After flashing, ROM no longer boots, and just sends me to fastboot.
7. I checked again with fastboot, and.. it seems the recovery partition isn't there?

So, I wonder if I should be concerned about not finding a recovery/recovery_a/recovery_b partition (I am pretty sure recovery_a/b where there when I flashed TWRP the first time).
So, I am following now this guide to install the stock ROM: https://xiaomistockrom.com/xiaomi-redmi-note-11
Am I on the right path? I want to check before proceeding, because... right now I have fast boot and can boot into TWRP using it, but if I do things incorrectly from now on, I could brick the device. So I wanted to ask for advice on what I am doing first here.
TIA.

It's fairly difficult to hard brick a device. Most of the time you'll just end up soft bricking your device which is easy to fix as long as you can access bootloader mode. If you want to fully restore your device to default, you can download your stock rom (fastboot version) and flash using miflash.
Also yes, the guide you linked is correct.

Thanks, I managed to solve it.
The fastboot issue went away some time afterwards, and I could boot normally into the ROM, but... my bluetooth stopped working (which is really strange considering I only flashed the recovery partition). I tried flashing the bluetooth partition from the stock ROM's, but that didn't fix it.
So I tried flashing the stock ROM, following the previously linked guide (and that guide, not the guides that came bundled in the downloaded ROM, that one was for a different device, not a Xiaomi phone at all, weird!).
And now, I have bluetooth again. Thanks goodness for Migrate, I should be able to restore the rest of the device swiftly now.

How to flash Google/Pixel Stock Stable Android 13 on Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G (in my case camellian) from any MIUI or any GSI rom without custom recoveries:
Download stock (original/unmodified) boot.img from your current MIUI Version
Download LATEST platform-tools (ADB + FASTBOOT) from Google
Download Magisk (in my case Alpha version works best on newer Androids)
Download Android 13 (stable) GSI (ARM64+GMS - Gapps version) from Google:
-- ARM64 without GMS (Gapps) also works, but upon installing Gapps manually I've gotten Bootloops (I tried serveral versions & Magisk Flashable too)
-- After downloading the GSI, extract system.img (you will be flashing this image) and vbmeta.img (and this image)

My opinion after one day:
If u like alot of customization it's not for you, you have to install even most basic apps let it's completly stock. But battery life is improved by 35-50% !! I'm using it for over 15 hours and still 30% battery left. Google Cam works great. Performance amazing. Few bugs here and there in the UI but overall pretty stable.
Anyway not a daily driver for everyone yet, needs a bit more polish. Enjoy !!

This looks good. Will it work for camellia?

That's the reason I'm still on MIUI. Small things like network speed in status bar is very important to me.

I am not sure as I don't have one to test it on, but I don't see why it wouldn't; all other GSI's work so. .
Have in mind that it looks good because of the Lawnchair Launcher (god bless the developer of it, i'm using it over 5 years), otherwise you will get the most basic stock functional android quickstep launcher.

Hi,
I just tried this procedure with the latest beta build (Android 13 QPR1 BETA) and it does not boot (it restarts by itself every 30s), I switched back to Lineage OS 19.1
Am I the only one having this problem?
Thanks

Hi TedFin,
sure, here is how I flash back LineageOS 19.1:
First of all, I assume you have the ADB and fastboot drivers installed, you can find guides here and there.
Download LineageOS here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/andyyan-gsi/files/lineage-19.x/lineage-19.1-20221011-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS.img.xz/download
Download stock firmware here:
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/camellian/stable/V13.0.3.0.SKSEUXM/ (choose Fastboot rom)
Extract the Xiaomi stock firware using 7zip or any other compatible software
Reboot your phone in fastboot mode (long press on volume down while booting)
Open a command prompt on the extracted folder and run
Bash:
flash_all.bat
Once completed, your phone should be back on stock rom
Reboot once again in fastboot mode
Then in cmd:
Go to the LineageOS folder
Bash:
cd /d [the folder where you decompressed lineageos]
Reboot in fastbootd
Bash:
fastboot reboot fastboot
Flash LineageOS
Bash:
fastboot flash system lineage-19.1-20220912-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgS.img
fastboot flash system_b lineage-19.1-20220912-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgS.img
Clean up
Bash:
fastboot reboot recovery
Wipe all then reboot
If you have a boot loop, reboot in Fastboot
Bash:
fastboot flash boot [the stock rom folder]\images\boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b [the stock rom folder]\images\boot.img
Voila!

Do you wipe data at the end before reboot?

Hi, thanks for your response,
yes I did it, I also restore the stock firmware before but it does not change anything

try nother gsi. a question: what stock firmware u have installed? i must start from miui13 because have a12 vendor
second. check the active slot. gsi must be installed into primary
third: flash system without erase system partition
forth: reflash boot stock img before reboot
if your phone dont boot and stuck on logo the problem is boot.img or active slot
if your phone boot into recovery wipe data
the bootloops after flashing gsi are caused by boot.img or data that must be wiped
another thing: FLASH VBMETA DISABLING SECURE VERITY CHECK before reboot
the steps for flash gsi are simply. slect the correct gsi and start from the correct stock is important. mut most important is use your brain. i have flashed at lest 5-6 gsi without problems

Hi,
1. Here is the stock ROM I'm using: camellian_eea_global V13.0.2.0 (SKSEUXM)
2. Active slot is A (anyway, I always flash A and B)
3. System partition is erased when flash stock rom. I do not flash after stock
4. I always flash boot (both A and B) after flashing a GSI, tried with stock boot.img and Magisk's
5. After installing a GSI, I always wipe all data in recovery mode
6. flashing vbmeta is part of your process and, of course, I followed it step by step
The phone is not stuck on logo, it just keep restarting again and again without reaching the OS itself (no boot animation)
By the way, I'm able to flash LineageOS or Pixel Experience using the same procedure works without any quirks, this is the only GSI I'm having problem with.
Thanks

Sure, no rush, anyway, LOS is pretty stable except I cannot bypass SafetyNet.

Sorry I forgot about my post, I'll do it now... As for the Safety Net I highly recommend using Alpha (not official) build of Magisk (pay attention to other builds such as Delta and similar "Alpha" builds everywhere; this Telegram Group link is the one and only trusted place where you can find download link-I'll attach latest version down bellow). Every single problem I had with either stock or modified roms; I solved them when I started using it (except when I overdo it with modules which would be my mistake ofc.). The biggest difference is that it is closed-sourced so there is a risk when using it, but it's being maintained by one of the respected people that worked/works on official Magisk.
Next step is of course installing Universal SafetyNet Fix by kdrag0n.
And finally MagiskHide Props Config By Didgeridoohan. After flashing this one you will have to set it up with any terminal (Termux for example) to spoof your device config so the store thinks you're using - in my case Google Pixel 6 Pro. Also in my case the feature "device emulator - 3rd from above" gave me soft brick so be careful. It's easy to set it up as it guides you via terminal (I use first two options and spoofing as Pixel 6 Pro as I said).
Those things are first things I do on a new rom, and yeah I use LSPosed Framework + Zygisk.
No problems and I'm certified in Google Play/Google Games stores even tho I use modified apks to hack multiplayer games.
I'll go and give you all the files so u can try latest generic GSI by Google if you still want, using this guide.

mi a2 and fastboot flash - Error

Hi All,
The issue i am encountering (with my mi a2 ) is the following:
Start: All was working, and i did a restart of the phone;
Effect: The phone did not start up any more and kept hanging on -android one- splash
Analysis: I can still start the phone in fastboot mode, and can still connect with ADB and fastboot
(this is correctly installed and working with my other M2 phones.. also cables are correct and using usb 2 etc..)
Problem: When flashing, every second flash command seems to fail:
example log:

In theory just repeating the flash commands will get it done; HOWEVER some flashes have bigger images like system

Sending sparse 'system_a' 2/6 (514680 KB) FAILED (remote: 'Error flashing partition.')
fastboot: error: Command failed
After the first flashed chunk the second part fails and the link between phone and pc hangs; I need to reboot the phone in fastboot again to get control again;
(sadly i cannot directly flash part 2of 6 since its one command)
------------------------------------------
Additional findings:

The flash goes well (because its the first flash command) and the phone restarts to boot;
Sometimes it actually boots in the twrp menu but 98% of the times it hangs on the twrp splash screen
Additional findings:
I read something about encryption etc so i tried to wipe stuff (with wipe command)
This always seem to result in a hang on erasing cache
(COULD BE that cache is not used or available in Mi a2??)

ALL in all i cannot get my phone to work anymore since flashing seems to hang every second flash command
This also means i cannot get a working stable STOCK rom put back on my phone;
Does anybody have some ideas or tips on how to fix this?
Personally i think there is something wrong with the memory disk inside the phone? Corrupted? Bad sectors?
Maybe i should look in the direction of formatting something?
All input / help will be appreciated;
Regards
Tom

I assume phone is fully unlocked. Otherwise search for Test-Point / EDL guide.
> When flashing, every second flash command seems to fail
- Try to use another USB 2.x slot, for example in an external USB hub (most modern monitors have one built-in). Note that USB3.x slots are not fully supported with MiA2 drivers.
- Maybe update fastboot.exe with latest platform tools (https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools)
- Recheck installed Win64 USB drivers with USBDeview (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html)
> Sometimes it actually boots in the twrp menu but 98% of the times it hangs on the twrp splash screen
- "Official" TWRP is buggy,
- use the working one by @Nebrassy

I believe so, yet "fastboot -w" used to work for everybody ... or RAM went south
Have you tried to switch A/B slots to previously installed ROM in TWRP or fastboot?
