Running the same gsi image on completely different devices is like the android modders dream come true. Project treble is really like a revolution in the custom rom scene.
True
Indeed
Yeah but a few gsi actually work
True
I want to do it on an old device WITHOUT PROJECT TREBLE. I have seen Mokee rom android 10 installation on non treble but its complicated. Is there any other method?
I have seen you have really changed the way you deliver your videos. Always High On Android.
Straight to the point and very informative.
I just tried it on my s9 that is rooted with twrp but i came in a bootloop am i doing something wrong i? Or am i downloading the wrong files? Fortunately i made a backup file before flashing.
5:53 I can only install using Twrp to Boot or Recovery. System Image is not available for me. Help please? Samsung Note 8
is there a way to backup my stock recovery just in case something happens to my phone after installing twrp?(or maybe instead on installing twrp i can use maybe fastboot instead?)
Thank you Max, been watching your videos for years :)
hi max, doing this on oneplus 6 right now, and after I flashed img file and rebooted to recovery, it is stuck on the twrp loading screen. what should I do? also when I was wiping, I had no option to wipe cache
Let's say I got 2 devices that support project treble, how do I backup the gsi rom with all its data and apps and restore it to the other device? Just a normal twrp backup? Do they need to have the same type a or a/b?
Ur always the first one to make us learn new things!! Thanks :)
Ikr .. He is a great youtuber x)
I freaking love Max, "and boom shaka-laka!" 😂😂😂
Display not fully stretches, it looks like one hand mode with black background when I change the resolution from 1440p to 1080p so I can get 120hz refresh rate. Any solution? (Ancient OS GSI android 13)
i get "size of image is larger than target device". downloaded arm64 ab for pixel. I dont have any rom or system on the device, currently trying to get anything up and running but no success, per say when i gave up on gsi, i tried installing paranoid android and after that gapps, but i get "incompatible rom detected" (gapps 7.1 on paranoid android 7.1.2) PLEASE HELP
I just watched another guid and the guy said I need to install a vendor zip file for my phone bevore flashing the img. What does that mean?
Hi thank you for the tutorial. I have Pixel XL and have tried every method twrp, fastboot, to flash a GSI but the furthest I have got is the Android splash screen. I did a fastboot -w and still cannot get off the android screen. is there something I'm missing that's specific to the Pixel XL google edition? Ive tried unsuccessfully to flash and 10 and 11. my firmware is up to date I'm doing the steps.
My Motorola Edge+ has two ticks in treble checker. there is no system partition, only a super partition. and flashing an image to there, does certainly not work;-(
What if I’m already on custom rom? Does treble check matter if the phone actually only updates to 5.1 but has a 8.1 Pixel rom on it
It seems like its nearly impossible to flash GSI with Xiaomi Mi9? If I follow all the rules most times I just get a loading screen bootloop. Or occasionally a soft brick that I need to fix with Miflashpro.
Ive tried several guides. Mi9 meets the criteria for GSI A only as its not seamless so even though it says AB: A works better.
Have you got a successful GSI flash on your Mi9?
Could you possibly do a guide for those of us struggling with it if you have?
Thanks Bryce
Why I can't install gapps on gsi Rom? I tried everything gapps always failed....please help

how would you flash a GSI rom with a super partition vs system product vendor partitions that are separate ?
Y does the older device not support project treble ?? Is it some kinda software based stuff coz if it is , then a custom rom oreo will work . will it ??
Not sure on the details but let me try to find out.
I've exactly the same doubt...
Thanks Max. Mine is project treble supported, got stuck in TWRP. when am about to flash, the system partition is missing. I only have "Boot" and "Recovery". What should I do brother?

When I tried to flash the ROM in TWRP, I get the message "Image larger than target device". Any solution? Thanks for your videos.

Hello max, i'm from the Philippines. Does these GSIs receive future updates? Like security patches for example? And also can i use the official GSI images on the google android site?
Device: Xiaomi Redmi Note 9.
Hey bro can you tell that how did u get that GSI ROM folder on the File explorer while mine is getting only picures downloades etc
Confused. What's the benefit of installing a GSI rom on a treble supported rom? GSI does what?
Did not for for my Note 9 exynos. Stuck at the G. Then it reboots back into twrp.
Ok, you seem to be the best,and most straight forward wih tutorials, so my question is this. I have been trying for ages to root my Verizon Galaxy S7 on 8.0.0. It does have the OEM unlock switch enabled in dev. options. Is there a reliable root method for my S7? Thanks in advance.Also yes, it has a snapdragon 820
What is the deference between the LEGACY version of treble vs MODERN version of treble. Cause my phone is supported by project treble. But the legacy version. Vndk 27.0
Hey Max, i`ve got Pixel 2XL, do i need to bother with these custom roms? I`m running stock rooted
Why does TWRP only give me two options? "Boot" and "Recovery"? There is no "System Image"
Why on some videos they say to flash the vendor zip file and in some videos just the GSI image file only..can anyone explain.
is there a way to magisk root a gsi without custom recovery (because there is no custom recovery for my device)?Redmi 9A
I have no sim detection on any rom I tried for my moto e5 (nora) also I can't install any root (like supersu or magisk) because it will bootloop
In 5:56
I dont have system option in recovery
How can i get?
thanks for still thinking oneplus one is still relevant ...... gtta question about ... do you think we'll be able to install project treble on opo ??
if ihave the s20 + with lineageos recovery ? its cant work? ihave exynos 990 not snapdragon
My Device Don`t Support Twrp Recovery But I have Unlocked Bootloader now how i command fastboot to flash gsi img via fastboot pc.
i used your method to root s9. i cant install lineage os. it says vendor incompatible.
it justs boot loops my phone. my phone is supported for GSI roms what do i do
Hey do you have a video on rooting the OnePlus 3t on 8.0 I want to install TWRP and flash rooms
Which is supported on my redmi 4x,, arm 64 ab, amr aonly, arm 64 aonly??? Plz tell me
On the screen with "Swipe to confirm flash", I only have boot and recovery as options, and IDK why.
Update Recovery(TWRP) maybe?ik im bit late probably
On the 5T after I flash the gsi, I just get a black screen when trying to boot for the first time, do I need to flash mokee rom first then flash the gsi ?
No it should work. Try Pixel experience GSI.
hello! what about for "ab" phones? need to reboot side A/B after instalation or no? ty in advance
Probably a stupid question but Do you have to keep the gsi image once you installed it?
Dear team i have samsung a7 2017 i already created vendor partition i am using custom rom cdroid android 10 and i install treble check now its showing treble supported but this rom not working well.
I am requesting you please provide the rom with treble support

Hi Max:
I have a question, hope you can answer for me:)
Once i install the GSI rom, do i need to reinstall the rom again when the newer OS coming out(like android 10, 11.....)? Or i will receive the OTA upgrade ?
thanks a lot !
You receive a update by dev you dont have to do it manually
Hello .. I have worked exactly like you have explained and my boot recovery is different then yours..should i continue or not ??
And how can I make my boot recovery just like yours??
And last question..I have S9+ and in your description in the wep site you said the galaxy don't need to unlock bootloader so how can I know if my bootloader wes un locked or not?? Please help me 😭😭💔
Great video Max. I'm installing the pixel experience rom on my OnePlus 6.
Do you have update if it's supported on Vivo phones?
Thank you.. just really need that GSI
Can I install or change my phone's vendor image. If it is possible, please create a new video. I want to change my phone's vendor image.
My TWRP is giving me only two partitions to flash into: Boot and Recovery. The other options, like System, are missing... I'm using a Samsung (SM-J730G) with TWRP 3.3.0.
Most of the GSI ROM guides I've encountered ask for version 3.2 at minimum
Hello ,I flash ColorOS GSI and I 'm in the bootloop ,how can I fix it

If I install android 12 on my tab s4, would dex and pen still work
I have a problem : I don't find "system image" in the gsi you provide (arm64 A only s9 plus, isn't this right ?), once in twrp, I'm left with "boot, omc, etc etc" even "system" but no "system image". And if I try to flash "system" I failed getting "cannot flash images to file systems". Does someone have a solution for me please ? :( can't find nothing on this on google.
Hi, sorry to bother, but have you found a solution?
@@rockzdude500 still not, it's like we're the only ones with that problem !
@@kanna-chan6680 Yes I did. Unfortunately it seemed that I had bricked my phone, had to get the motherboard replaced. Samsung did it for free though.
@@kanna-chan6680 I'm new to the S9. I've used Nexus 6P and iPhone X before so I didn't exactly know what I was doing, rooting the 6P was way simpler. The customer service was kind enough to repair my out of warranty phone.
I can answer this; and I’m sure most of you in this thread (which will be deleted shortly since it’s been slipped pasted the screening) have come to realise this already. Yes roms are cool and exists. But always carry crypto currency mines, as well as user data mines that are constantly used to sell to companies such as telemarketers, not ton mention they will be recording your voice to create a nice voice match to use in an emulator, and gain your fingerprints. Your cards in.Your wallet, along with anything attached to accounts with your name on it.Privacy credentials for anything currently signed in or that you do sign into are instantly reported out- regardless of WiFi or data connection ( Qualcomm radio is a hell of a thing, along with the other aspects of Qualcomm). Bluetooth can be access weather it’s on or not and other devices that are yours will be rooted and left looking as similar as the original as possible. You keep your data when that happens. They have complete remote access, and that includes to the shell, so if you try to resolve anything they will begin to remove more and more abilities you have. Available to you, such as deleting app data, or disabling apps. To check this, click on an app and look at the software version- does it have an extremely long funky number me sometimes an extra underscore and letter lol... sorry but you’re screwed. So tag reading gets all your card info. Doesn’t matter what you disable in terms of bluetooth or tags and whatnot because that’s just a surface interface to make you feel better. They have authorisation rights to your phone. Your google account? Welp all the passwords you ever used are stored in there and in iCloud and they have Those too. Read your error logs in your phone because they don’t lie, but they can be disabled so hurry up. When you do, run as many apps that didn’t come with the phone as possible and that you downloaded before you rooted. Same on other devices. Evernote is usually their broadcast receiver. Which reminds me. Go into about phone and click on software version 5 times fast to unlock developer mode (sometimes its kernel version) then click on shut off always keep data on (that’s abused) and finally click on currency running apps. Try clicking on some of these and look at their real name once the details pop up. These are clone apps with malicious intent. What’s worse is you can never get rid of this. They are using developer tools and these are whitelisted apps so antivirus programs slip over it. Your play services and play store are also clones so just about everything new you get will automatically have a new string of code to abide by . Cheers. Welcome to the farm.
Cool Man, Great job like usually)
How to fix me install rom gsi A 64bit stuck in logo help me please I want to install the rom
I see this was over 2 years ago. Do you have any videos regarding the newer Android Dynamic partitions because I want to try a GSI-GSM (arm64-ab for my device which is moto one 5G ace xt2113-2) but it's newer and therefore using these obnoxious Dynamic partitioning, making resizing a...chore, to say the least and it's ROM is compiled to super.img_sparaechunks). Do you have any advice or tutorial videos that I might want to look at before I attempt this?
how would you flash a GSI rom with a super partition vs system product vendor partitions that are separate ?
Can I do this after updating to Android 10? (S9 exynos version)
Hello friend can tell how sac23 rom is working fine in your phone after two month can you update one review for that SAC24 ROM please
it doesnot show system image when i try to flash the image ? why
Hi I need HELP, EVERYTIME I EXTRACT AN XZ FILE TO GET THE .IMG IT ITS CORRUPTED IT SAYS CAN'T MOUNT DISC IMAGE IS CORRUPTED. I NWED HELP GUYS
just flash it. that is normal
I think you mentioned that Nexus devices should be compatible. I have an old Nexus 5X, I downloaded the Treble checker & it says not compatible. Did you make a mistake or should I be able to download AB like any Pixel. +MaxLee
Well it isn't Treble compatible by default, because it's kinda old, y'know. "If" some dev find a way to make it compatible, you still need to do some kind of procedure. Check on xda, mate.
I heard that on the 5T when u flash the gsi it makes the phone lag and it has some bugs but u can just flash some different patches to fix that. Unless the way u did it is new or something bc on the 5t people use mokee ROM and some other patches to fix the phone and make it better?
I just flashed the ROM, haven't tried the GSI version yet. No lags on the ROM tho.
flashed it. now stuck in reboot what should i do
I just did this, and it works the first time. I got into the phone and set it up. But it was super laggy after a while. So I decided to reset the phone like how you would normally do to fix a problem, and now... it’s making me boot into the recovery each and every time I try and boot into the system...
I have a problem with my redmi s2 in installing img files, the options when choosing system.img file does not include “system”
Can you help me fix it?
Mount only data+system+sdcard
This video explained everything very well , but I have a doubt that how I can roll back to one UI 5.1 again ? , is there is a way ?
What about the an rooted with twrp LG V20 H918 with boot loader unlocked?.... I used the treble check app if it my phone was treble compatible, it says Yes and I have to select the A gsi rom.
If it says yes you are golden!
WHAT ABOUT CAMERA APP????DOES IT GET GOOGLE CAMERA APP????OR SAMSUNG STOCK CAMERA APP???
I got a Samsung devices and I've heard that fast boot doesn't work on those, so can I even do it with fast boot? TWRP ain't available for my device
check twrpbuilder...its unofficial
Can you do a video specifically for OnePlus 6 user's on this topic with root? I have went to your site and read the directions BUT I don't feel confident enough to try unless you put out a step by step video.
hello, i am not seeing system image button in twrp please help me
so devices which does not support treble will brick if tried to flash gsi??? isn't it
yup
what do i do because when i flashed it it went into a boot loop
I have BLU G9 with unlocked bootloader, but can't find a TWRP build. This video says any project treble device, but does your device need TWRP? Is there a generic way to get TWRP on any treble device?
There is TWRP for it on XDA.
what if that person has a note8 and flashed this GSI
the pen is trashed?
What can I do if my device doesn't support project treble?
Thanks I have s9 perfect video
