GSI ROMs on Mi Max 3 - Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers

Hello guys, recently i've install a treble rom in my mi max 3 but the device don't boot and return to fastboot :/
What can happened ? how to install a gsi rom ? maybe because of ARB ?
Sorry for my bad inglish.

you need to format data partition

shouldn't you flash a specific firmware before flashing some GSIs? Or was that for something else?
Theres a GSI thread where the process is explained in detail I think

Tutorial to flash a custom rom on my new WHYRED

Hello guys,
I have just bought a Redmi Note 5 with MIUI 9.5.13.0(OEIMIFA). I would like to flash a custom rom over it. Is there a good tutorial to unlocking bootloader, flashing TWRP and then, a custom rom?
Also, is it advisable to upgrade to MIUI 10 before flashing a custom rom?
Thanks a lot in advance
no need to update to miui10 for unlocking and flashing any custom rom

if you want to install lineageOS then don't use formatDATA option in TWRP
please read it carefully, if you have any doubt then ask for help in desired custom rom threads

Possibility to use EDL to downgrade

Hello, i see that this device is also listed for anti rollback which you can't flash back to Global Beta via mi flash without bricking. Now.. my question is... Is it possible to use EDL with authorization to go back to Oreo firmware from Android Pie since that flash mode has higher privilege.
Reason why i ask is because like this device, I have a Mi Max 3 which also is listed for antirollback and both Android Pie and Oreo has ARB 4.
You can flash via fastboot as well with no issues, as both Oreo and pie fw are arb4

Uh, nono, I bricked when i went back to beta. So i had someone help me to flash from Global to Beta using EDL by remote. That is why i asked, either way i have beta now.
Reason i ask this question is because you guys have anti-rollback.. and you guys have more Roms than Mi Max 3. We have anti 4 now and flashing TWRP is not working. Yet your device and Mi8 that is on the anti-rollback list too along with Mi Max 3...are able to have a lot more Roms and working TWRP. I ask Mi8 forum same question because they have been advancing as well.

your problem sounds more like data partition incompatibility
use CLEAN flash first (format data, not wipe) follow this tutorial
if it dosn't work, then start playing with FW
FW links
RN8 : https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/ginkgo/
RN8 T : https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/willow/
you can flash any region fw, (flash with recovery as normal zip)
just don't make mistake flashing ginkgo FW on willow or willow FW on ginkgo
you will break the phone !
