64 bit vendor for A6​

The day is here... the day we never thought was ever going to be possible. Exynos 7870 is now running 64 bits. This magic was made possible by @Astrako
I hope everybody appreciates the dedication and the countless hours he must've gone through to get this to work.
Please don't take anything from this vendor set-up. I used took Astrako's vendor in H-ROM and adapted it to A6 with his permission. Don't try to claim it as your own.
Please give thanks to the original thread that made this possible: Click here and give thanks!
Also, A HUGE HUGE HUGE DISCLAIMER:
I do not own an A6. This vendor was originally made for the J6, but since they are somewhat similar it only needed a few file swaps to get most things to work. I only have 2 testers and we managed to fix most stuff. Flash under your own risk and expect bugs!


Code: 
Your warranty is now void. 
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, 
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about flashing this zip file
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if 
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. HARD!

Features!​
  • 64bit enabled vendor

Bugs!​
  • This will not work with 32 bit OneUI. DON'T FLASH ON ONEUI
  • NFC is probably broken

Changelog!​

FAQ
  • [Q] My phone is stuck in bootloop/infinite boot, what should I do?
  • [A] It is normal for first instalation to take aprox 10-20 minutes on first boot, let it sit for a little bit
  • [Q] Even after 20 minutes, my phone is still in a bootloop/infinite boot, what can I do?
  • [A] It is possible that your previoius Android setup is conflicting with this new setup. Please, do the following:
    • 1. FORMAT DATA (not WIPE, FORMAT!)
    • 2. Try the instalation of the GSI and make sure you follow the instructions correctly
  • [Q] I've found a bug, what should I do
  • [A] Due to the nature of GSI, I cannot fix bugs that may come from the ROM you are using

Sorry guys, this is A6 Exynos 7870 only.
Exynos 7870 is shared between a lot of devices and it's very easy to port between them. Not to mention that there are a lot of devs that work on 7870.

It worked on SM-A600G but Camera app does not work. I have installed arm32 too but not luck the camera app also does not work. For you who want to try it, what this video https://youtu.be/NryORE8Q7Ds how to install GSI ROM and 64bit Vendor on your Galaxy A6.
Click to expand...
Try with open camera, for me it worked
The only thing that isnt working its SIMCards at least for me
btw for installing images its Arm64 A only or A64 binder A only? its not clear
