download this
extract it and find vbmeta.img under “images” folder, move it to c drive without under any folders
go into fastboot and execute the fastboot command:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta C:\vbmeta.img
then reflash orangefox

Extract the .gz file into a .img file with 7zip winrar or whatever
then rename it into system.img and put into c drive not under any folder
then execute:
fastboot flash system C:\system.img
fastboot reboot

then see if it boots. do this at your own risk I mean I am not responsible if your device is bricked more

Hi the terminal is saying it's incorrect
what is the exact error
just delete the part that it says it is wrong and retry the command
e.g. if error is error message: fastboot: unknown option -- disable-verity
then
fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta C:\vbmeta.img
DO THE DISABLE VERITY BEFORE do those on post 6!

I tried this one but after booting to custom recovery it keeps blinking on Orange Fox Recovery logo, can't be able to go to the recovery menu. How to fix it please help me

Yes there are plenty of custom rom which can be installed on poco m3 all the rom which work on juice/chime work in Citrus too it just that the kernel doesn't support the main problem is the panel nvt-ts which many doesn't support so you can install any custom rom and if it didn't boot just flash a different kernel i advice to use stormbreaker r5 kernel it work on all rom . And I'm currently on CRDROID 8.9 with fbe v2 supported
