Stuck on Mi-Logo after GSI installation

Hey guys,
I have recently bought my "Whyred" (4/64 global) and have already unlocked the bootloader.
After switching to Miui 10 global developer rom (with official MiFlash Tool) I wanted to test some custom roms. Therefore I have enabled the developer options, USB-Debugging and OEM Unlock. After this I have booted TWRP 3.2.2.0 with fastboot and flashed the TWRP image to the phone via the booted recovery. Followed by the no-verity-opt-zip (6.0) and Magisk v16.7 to root the phone.
On this basis I went back to the recovery and did a factory reset, followed by an advanced wipe of dalvik, cache, data, system and vendor. Afterwards I have moved the whyred-treble-vendor (zip-file) and the PixelExperience GSI to my phone. First I have flashed the vendor-zip and then switched to image and flashed the GSI as system-image.
And now comes the problem: when I try to reboot to the system it always states "No Os installed". By wiping the cache and data again, I am able to boot to the system, but the phone is stucked on the Mi-Logo
After recovering my phone with the MiFlash Tool (Miui 10 global developer rom), I have tried to flash the GSI in different ways according to a lot of guides I have found in the net, but nothing is working. All methods are leading to the same result: my phone stucks on Mi-Logo
Could anyone of you give me a hint about what I am doing wrong?
Thank you!
Best regards,
nkl

At a guess with wiping system and data. Your also removing changes done by "no-verity-opt-zip (6.0)", and since your still using the MIUI Bootloader the device won't boot the associated GSI.
Maybe try flashing/booting a Treble enabled custom rom, first and then install your GSI. Or avoid the whole Treble thing and just use a custom rom.
You may get more assistance in Treble specific threads/forums.

Hey,
Thank you for your quick reaction!
But did I get something wrong? Doing a factory reset and then doing an advanced wipe of dalvik, cache, data, system and vendor is more or less an essential part of all the guides out there?
So you think, I should try to flash for example LineageOS first and then take an approach on the GSI? And which steps should I take? Should I flash no-verity-opt and Magisk under Miui 10 global dev first and then flash custom, i.e. LineageOS? Or should I flash LineageOS first (on a fresh Miui dev rom) and then no-verity-opt and Magisk?
Thanks!

@nkl0806 After installing the GSI while using MIUI as the base you could try flashing no-verity-opt before trying to boot.
no-verity-opt is only required on MIUI based roms (or in your case with a GSI).
Flash a custom rom and boot it. Don't worry about magisk etc.
Then install your GSI and boot it, avoid flashing magisk or gapps.
Once it boots, go back and install magisk and gapps etc and wipe data.
Hopefully then boot and setup your GSI rom.
Also make sure your using a Treble enabled TWRP!
Noob guide to install GSI on whyred
Again look for support in Treble Threads/Forums, I haven't experiment with it, so only going by what I have read.

Thank you!
I have also followed this noob guide to flash the GSI, but it did not work out. Maybe I should really skip the Treble stuff and just use the normal custom rom!
I will try to flash the PixelExperience rom and not the GSI - or maybe follow another Guide and flash the Mokee rom first as a base for the GSI.
Thanks again!

Oneplus 5T root problem

Hello all If any one can help me ,
I was rooted running rooted stock oxygen os before on my Oneplus 5T
after flashing Oxygen OS 5.1.4 Full Zip my phone is not rooting it gets in initial oneplus logo and freeze there without loading OS
Phone is working fine after Flashing Oxygen OS 5.1.4 Full Zip without any issue its not booting after flashing either SuperSu or Magisk
Steps which I follow are
1 Flash custom recovery I have tried both Codeworkx TWRP | Blu_Spark
2 after flashing recovery boot in to recovery flash Supersu or magisk
3 reboot
when I reboot if i Flash supersu it stuck on oneplus logo, If i flash magisk it reboot itself to fastboot so Os is not loading at all.
I have to flash full Zip again every time to get it working but then I dont have root access.
I have tried at least 10 times with different even old versions of magisk and supersu with out any success.
Is there any particular recovery or different version of magisk or superuse I need to flash?
your help will be really appreciated.

Try a different approach. Instead of installing recovery, just get phone rooted first. There is a way where you can boot into twrp (without installing it), and then flash magisk/supersu zip. If your phone is rooted, then you can install twrp later (or keep oem recovery)
This is how you boot into twrp (or any recovery): fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
Let me know how it goes.

As you said boot to recovery without installing it.
One problem currently I am installing recovery and flashing root. After that phone is not booting up in to OS it stuck on oneplus logo. Then I have to force off phone boot in to recovery and flash full os zip to get it working. I can boot in to TWRP because my os didn't load. Now if I use your method and flash root file and if phone won't boot to os that means I won't be able to boot in to TWRP again to flash full os zip to get phone working atleast without root. Any idea?

Huh, frankly I have no idea why you are facing this menace. I can just give two suggestions.
1. Try with older, more stable versions of TWRP and Magisk
2. Get yourself a custom ROM, most ROM's will work flawlessly after flashing root files
Hope for the best!

I usually switch from OpenBeta to LOS and back again. Here's how I switch back to OpenBeta (steps should work for official OOS):
1) Back everything on internal storage up. This one's important
2) Boot into official OOS recovery
3) Wipe EVERYTHING (this is why you need to follow Step 1)
4) Sideload the version of OOS you want. The instructions will be right there on the recovery screen
5) Boot into Fastboot and flash TWRP
6) Flash Magisk and (optional) Xposed

Unable to Install any custom rom.

So I've been following DavidRocher's tutorial to install a custom rom (the one that's linked around here the most), I've followed it before installing his RR official rom but as the room started showing a lot of issues, I decided to wipe everything and install something a little more stable such as lineage. I didn't care for Gcam or etc so I wouldn't have minded not having those at all.
However, even after following these steps now once again, even flashing the stock rom as asked for a brand new, clean install, twrp (offain) is hitting me with Error 1s on *any* custom rom that I try installing. I can seemingly flash the stock rom without any issues, but anything else and it's a solid no from TWRP.
Am I missing something?
The error itself is Error applying update: 28 (ErrorCode:: kDownloadOperationExecutionError) Updater process ended with Error: 1 error installing zip file.
I've been wiping, booting, rebooting, re-installing the custom rom, checking the unlocked bootloader and I have had no progress at all. I do not know why this is happening, could anyone please help me?

So, I found out that the -only- rom I can install is the one I originally installed, DavidRocher's official RR which seems to be no longer maintained. Which is also the rom I'm trying to get rid of... This doesn't sem to make any sense, does anyone have -any advice- at all?

Please can you describe exactly the steps that you did from boot to recovery and so?

Steps followed were:
Flashing stock daisy_global_images_V10.0.3.0.PDLMIXM_9.0 (flash_all.bat from bigota.d.miui.com/V10.0.3.0.PDLMIXM/daisy_global_images_V10.0.3.0.PDLMIXM_20190114.0000.00_9.0_e8d8d4a6d0.tgz)
Turning the phone off after it booted successfully;
Turning it on in fastboot;
Booting offain's twrp-daisy-3.3.0-0-offain.img through fastboot (fastboot boot twrp-daisy-3.3.0-0-offain.img);
No password entered;
Format Data;
Pushing custom rom & twrp;
Attempting to flash custom rom in any of the slots. At this point, it fails and gives me the error on any rom except the official Resurrection Remix rom from DavidRocher, which I can successfully install alongside twrp and force encryption disabler, change slots, install gapps and magisk and boot.
*Any* other rom just fails with that specific error code.

Try after to reboot to recovery, before of doing nothing or flash anything:
- Flash the TWRP installer.
- Then Wipe cache/dalvik, system and data
- Then Format data.
- Then change slot and reboot to recovery again.
- Now try to follow the usual steps by flashing rom, TWRP, changing slot, etc.
- If didn´t work change the place where it is the rom, extSDCard instead of internal memory or instead adb sideload.

Attempted the following steps and adb sideload, error apparently still persists, sadly. This is just... So weird. It doesn't make any sense at all, maybe the official RR altered the partition sizes in some manner? I tried resizing/repairing them through TWRP and it also didn't change anything... ****.

The message through TWRP still the same? Try erasing boot partition where is allocated TWRP through
Code:
fastboot erase boot
then boot to offain TWRP, flash other recovery like Orange and see if this recovery can flash the rom and later flash again TWRP through Orange I don´t think that RR did that so I flashed both versions on my device and I don´t have this issue but if you sometime resized your partition I don´t guess that TWRP can restore it well, you could resize it again through the same method.

I guess I'll try it with orange when I have a little more time then.. Spent the last 10-12 hours trying different procedures with twrp and they were pretty fruitless... It's still so weird, I'm definitely not new to flashing roms, I've done it so many times in the past and this is the very first time I get this sort of behavior. I'll update this once I try out OrangeFox.

hi!
your method has always worked for me, but this time I always get error 1.
I tried to install the pixel experience and lineage and nothing works, can you help me?

Mi9Se TWRP loop after install a new rom

Hi everyone,
I try to install custom rom from miglobe with the mi9SE.
First step I successfully flash the bootloader with the custom TWRP ---> "TWRP-3.4.0-2-Mi9SE" (actually the file name is twrp-3.4.0-2grus.img download from github / redispade)
Then I boot on it, I wipe and hard reset everything, then I go to INSTALL and I select the zip file corresponding to the last miglobe rom for Mi9se.
The installation is done successfully. I reboot the phone, and now, the device always boot on the TWRP.
So I flash the device again with the mi flash tool and official globale rom.
Then I try again, trying to format all data and other option, but it's always the same, device boot on TWRP everytime after custom rom installation.
What is wrong in my installation process ?

1. Coming from any Mi-ROM, you've to flash vbmeta before new ROM.
2. Try SHRP from march instead.
