Hello everyone, I was trying to flash Google R preview gsi to my phone. Since my phone is samsung a20e, first I used odin. Packed patched vbmeta img and r preview gsi image. And flashed it. But after few seconds after pressing start, it saids "Failed to send end session packet". Does it mean the gsi is too large for my /system partition?

That error means that there was, an in this case undocumented, error whilst sending the Gsi to your device
Hi There!
I come to you with a request for help. Well, I wanted to install the GSI system straight from the Google website, but during the installation it turns out that my system partition is definitely too small.
Is there any way to properly install the IMG image straight from the Google site? Probably should enlarge the system partition, just HOW? I need the help of experts, and I know that at the XDA Forum I will find them.
Below you will need information:
- My device is Google Pixel XL (marlin),
- My phone supports Treble A and B updates,
- The system I wanted to install was the beta GSI Android 11 straight from the Google website,
- The recovery I used when trying to install the system: twrp-3.4.0-0-marlin.img from TWRP site,
- I also tried to install the system using CMD with ADB and fastboot,
- I have fastboot unlocked on my device,
- Information about too small partition also occurs when trying to install GSI Android 10,
- My device does not support fastbootd,
- LineageOS ZIP packages work normally and install without any errors,
- Updates from ADB sideload also load smoothly,
- Here is the link from where I got GSI Android 11 and 10: https://developer.android.com/topic/generic-system-image/releases#android-gsi-11,
I'm trying this also, credited the error to the system partition on marlin being 2gb and the system img on Google GSI being 2.1gb.
I know there's also an AOSP GSI which i downloaded from the same Google website and the image is 1.3gb if I'm not mistaken. I was able to flash this but phone wont boot. It will just bootloop on the Google with white background image and that's it.
I also tried downgrading to Android 8.1 factory image since I heard that another user got GSI Android 11 working coming from 8.1 but after trying this way I got the same bootloop error.
Solution
I was able to install Android 10 GSI on my Pixel, this method should work. You just need to reflash Android 9, see: https://forum.highonandroid.com/t/how-to-flash-android-10-gsi-roms-on-pixel-or-pixel-xl/217
I spent hours trying to figure this out but worked.
Hey there, can someone please guide me how to install GSI on this device using OFOX or TWRP recovery please? Thank you in advance.

Any other ideas?
Hello guys. So, i want to install an unofficial lineage os to my Xiaomi redmi 6 (cereus). But th problem is the custom rom file format is img.xz and it's not detected by the TWRP recovery. I've tried to extract the img.xz into a img file. And it actually detected with the TWRP, so i tried to install it and locate the rom to System Image. It's tecnically got the rom image installed succesfully, but when i tried to boot it up, it's just got to the xiaomi logo and then it's just restarted repeatedly to the xiaomi logo again and again. So at this point, I don't know what can i do?
Note : Gapps and magisk installed without any issues because they're zip files. So i don't think the problem is in the magisk or Gapps.
Device : Xiaomi Redmi 6 ( Cereus )
TWRP Version : 3.6.2_9.0
Lineage OS ROM : Lineage OS Unofficial cereus (a64 and ab rom ) ( I got it from Andy Yan's Personal Builds SourceForge ).

Its Feb 2023 and I've just done EXACTLY the same thing trying to put lineageOS 20 onto a Galaxy TAB A 8..0 LTE. Hope I find a solution as my device is resting in download mode just to stop it from looping/buzzing.
Hello, I am asking you very sincerely for your support. I need your help with Installing/Flashing Smartphone LG G4 H815 - via Recovery TWRP - Pixel Experience Custom Rom.
I am asking for help - in making contact with > @phhusson on the XDA Developers forum.
Please help me with this.
Thanks for the spam. No idea why you would expect any help from me on this.
Ok I see Dear @phhusson - is currently unavailable. Ladies and gentlemen, please help me. I need to know what to do if I get a message saying that Recovery TWRP cannot successfully install/flash - Zip Packages.

Hello friend, I am very sorry for Spam. I need help can you help me? I have a situation that when I try to flash a zip package with the extension img.xz - Loader built into TWRP Recovery - in LG G4 H815 - does not want to load this zip package correctly - claiming that it cannot recognize this Android image - which is in the zip package . I understand that I am dealing with an Android image that is compressed from the standard img format to the img.xz format. My Loader in TWRP Recovery fails to detect the img.xz image format.
I need to know the name of the application / tool for image decompression img.xz - xz extension - this is the format that says about using Android image compression - do I understand correctly? If at the moment the Loader built into Recovery TWRP is not reading my image file img.xz from Android - what should I do in this situation?
I think you should think about Decompressing the img.xz image - because I got information from a friend - that if by some miracle the Loader built into TWRP Recovery - would correctly detect the img.xz image - from Android - i.e. a compressed image, then after installing this image on the disk - maybe brick the phone. Because in this situation the Loader would drop a compressed version of the Android image, which would mean an unexpected error. Fortunately in this TWRP Recovery - there is a built-in system - security - which stops flashing / installing the zip package - when the Android image is compressed.
I am asking for your help and support for me.

Can you tell me if there are img images from Pixel Experience available for download - which are not compressed to xz format?
Is an android image in standard img.
I am looking for a Pixel Experience image that is not compressed in the standard img format - because the Loader in TWRP Recovery does not detect compressed Android images - which are packed in a zip package.
