Well, did not go too far... when trying to flash twrp, I'm getting an error:Indeed! I once tried using AOSP 10 with floss services and without Google ones but yeah it didn't last even a day... lolI flashed gapps within 5 hrs.
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'recovery_ramdisk' (24466 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.642s]
writing 'recovery_ramdisk'...
FAILED (remote: partition length get error)
finished.
Ideas?
I'm on EMUI 5.0.4
You have to upgrade to umui 8 to install this.
If you trying a twrp on emui 5 to upgrade to emui 8, you have to use
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.imgTry this https://xdaforums.com/t/twrp-3-2-1-...upport-for-honor-6x-by-hassanmirza01.3733201/
Well, I was trying to follow the video and instructions, and both of them (video
Thanks!
You have to flash twrp from link I mentioned in my previous post in your case. As you're on emui 5
I tried with
Fastboot flash recovery EliteTWRP-3.2.1-0.img
and it failed (image verification error)
Alrighty, first did you really unlock your bootloader?
Once try agin
Code:
fastboot oem unlock <your code>If successful, repeat the flashing...
Try to use this command instead if you still at EMUI 6.X
The one with
Edit : Oh my bad didn't see the page 2 of this thread, lmao I click on the notification that is not reloaded, sorry
fastboot flash recovery twrp.imgThe one with
recovery_ramdisk is only when you have to install the twrp required to install Fluid OS (Android 11) of this threadEdit : Oh my bad didn't see the page 2 of this thread, lmao I click on the notification that is not reloaded, sorry
Fudge! One of the videos showed to replace unlock codes with 11111111, I did that when unlocking and now when I try that command with 1111111 it say 'wrong password', so I think I have to do it again...
Lol mann... Did you use the potatoNV tool? You'll have a field named bootloader unlock code(you have to use it).

Lol man, the instructions said to use
fastboot oem unlock code <mycode>
and in reality you should run
fastboot oem unlock <mycode> lol
Story short: I have installed TWRP berlin, I'm all good all the way to EMUI 8 and ready to install FluidOS and I'm at step: Reboot your device to TWRP.
adb reboot recovery takes me to EMUI recovery, did EMUI 8 overwrite my TWRP? I need to install it again?
Well I think I did send you the correct command in post 27...Yes, the EMUI 8 update will override twrp and partitions will change. Now use the twrp from the attachments in post 1. The fastboot command also will change. You have to use
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img

Hi, thanks for share this great ROM, Are you trying or testing another GSI a11 ROM like more recent cause I can try it to help with report bugs and put fixes etc... There's something to activate one hand mode like EMUI? And this support dual sim?
Mmmm... I'm still having phh AOSP 11 and @DarkJoker360 Lineage OS in my to-do list but I'm not doing it now as I actually wanted android 12(I like android 10 more than 11 as is has very less issues with encryption and it works out of the box without much fixes) and before the 12 builds, I thought of sticking with this.
Please try darkjoker's Lineage os 18 with the same procedure if you are willing to and if yes, I'll start a conversation between us.
I think no... But XDA's old one handed mode app still works! As far as I remember, we are getting a native one handed mode with android 12...
Yes, this supports dual sim but I didn't actually test it(also has option to switch primiary sim which is used for data in quick settings itself). I'll let you know after testing it today.
Update : dual sim works for me

You should more follow xda posts than YouTube video, some are corrects, but not all...

Didn't try dual sim, sorry
If you try darkjoker's aosp or lineage os, there must be additional steps to install. I can give you some hints in private, or if you open a new thread.

Thanks to both of you for your time and information, I tried to put this ROM but the only perceptible problem (I did not notice other very noticeable or present problems in the system, only Nicky gapps in twrp) was Ril / Data, it constantly restarts and does not The data works, install many times in different ways but the problem was still present, seeing the answer that if it supports dual sim, that is, if it does but it is not functional, at least in my case it is like that, in fact with a single sim also happened ... I went back to emui and reinstalled, reinstalled without returning to emui well many ways, I plan to try Lineage but then I plan to wait for the developer to release a few more versions, if you leave me the additional steps to do it, preferably here so that other people try and help development
Finally had the time to install it and surprise, I succeeded

Thanks for you help!
Did you mean you used NikGapps? NikGapps are buggy on our device... I never even succeeded flashing them. Everytime, I would get error in twrp whatever I do.
Try using OpenGapps. They're very smooth...
And what do you mean by constant restarts? The device? I didn't get you...

This was already described in a separate thread which describes the process to get back to EMUI 8 from custom ROMs. You can find it here.
Just follow the procedure in that thread. You need not even flash the frp unlock thing. After that, follow the process described in this thread.
It's recommended to be on original EMUI 8 before installing base EMUI 8 for hi6250. Follow the process linked in requirements to install EMUI 8 first then follow this spoiler.
Procedure :
- Make sure your device is running stock EMUI 8.
- Extract downloaded image using some xz extractor(7zip can also do this), copy it to pc.
- Reboot your device to TWRP.
- Format the data partition {Wipe > Format data > type "yes"}
- Flash fstab.hi6250b.zip from attachments
- Check if your device is detected by adb using
.Code:
adb devices - Move the img file using adb to device
(the img file must be in adb directory).Code:
adb push -p *img-name*.img /sdcard/ - (Optional, only if you want gapps) Move Gapps in the same manner
(the zip file must be in adb directory).Code:
adb push -p *gapps-name*.zip /sdcard/ - Install img as system image {Install > Install Image > Select > Choose system image > Swipe➡}.
- (Optional, only if you want gapps) Unmount and Remount system partition as writable. Go to wipe > advanced wipe > Choose system > resize > Swipe➡.
- Flash gapps.
- Flash stock recovery. Push it with adb using
and flash it with twrp as "Recovery" after choosing install image.Code:
adb push -p stock_recovery_ramdisk.img /sdcard/ - Disconnect your device from PC and reboot to recovery(stock one).
- Clear cache partition and perform a factory reset(You'll get an error during factory reset but you have to do it) (your device will bootloop if wiped with twrp itself).
- Reboot, Cross your fingers
and wait.
>Face Unlock is working perfectly
Additionals:
>Its better to charge your device to atleast 70% before doing anything as you'll have ample of time to recover it if you messed up something. If not, you can still charge your device in eRecovery mode and twrp but i found some issues like heating up and slow charging.
>Don't forget to set ringtone, notification and other sounds from settings after booting.
Updates :
- Nothing yet...
Happy Flashing !

Finally had the time to install it and surprise, I succeeded Well I think I did send you the correct command in post 27...
Yes, the EMUI 8 update will override twrp and partitions will change. Now use the twrp from the attachments in post 1. The fastboot command also will change. You have to useCode:fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
Now I just need to test it...
Thanks for you help!2
Your mistake is that your using stock erecovery.
You have to use stock recovery. Meaning flashing the stock recovery provided in post 1 over the twrp recovery :
- in TWRP Recovery Flash STOCK_RECOVERY_RAMDISK.img {Install > Install Image > Select > Choose recovery image > Swipe}
- in TWRP recovery, reboot to recovery (even if TWRP says no OS installed)
- in Stock recovery, wipe cache and factory reset (error is normal)
- in Stock recovery, reboot and wait2
Nope, there's an app on play store called "power menu controls" download that. And the other, you could use Tasker(also an app from play store) to create your custom controls like the ones I did for screen rotation.2
Didn't try dual sim, sorry
