How to install custom ROM || GSI
As everyone knows, unlocking bootloader on this device is impossible. But you can modify the BOOT partition to make 3261/3263/3263 boot GSIs

So what you need to do:
Firstly, you need to unlock fastbootd:
1. Download stock ROM version 91: Download and extract .pac file from it Link
2. Install SPD research tool and it's drivers: GDrive
3. Open it
4. Click on single gear icon
5. Select stock rom's .pac file
6. Wait until it loads
7. Click on two gears icon
8. Find BOOT in list
9. Right click on path near it
10. Download from here and Select boot_r1.img
11. Click OK then click arrow icon
12. Turn off your phone
13. Hold Power + VolumeDown until you see "Downloading" text
14. After you see it, release buttons
15. Wait until you see "Passed" text
16. Click stop icon, disconnect your phone and power it on

Now you have unlocked fastbootd so you can flash ROMs:
1. Install ADB fastboot drivers from here: GDrive
2. Download your GSI and extract it to .img file
3. Enable USB debugging on your phone and connect it to pc
4. Open adb platform tools
5. type adb reboot fastboot and hit enter
6. Wait until phone reboots into fastbootd mode
7. Type fastboot flash system "path to GSI" and hit enter.
8. If you get error "Not enough space to resize partition" type fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a and hit enter
9. When it finished Type fastboot erase userdata and hit enter
10. When it finished Type fastboot reboot and hit enter
11. Enjoy using a custom ROM :)

How to unbrick if ROM doesn't boot:
perform same steps like when you unlock fastbootd

Bugs in GSI

all of the above bugs do not depend on gsi, although some A11-A13 have their own bugs
