launch the flash_all file and let your phone boot

Reboot to fastboot

I'm using GSI PixelExperience_arm64-ab-vndklite-12.0-20220208-UNOFFICIAL. It's really working good and it's my daily driver.
The missing auto brightness could be fixed with the Velis Autobrightness App. It passes SafteyNet, too
DT2W is not working, but I use GravityScreen App instead.
It's a lot of work if you switch from MIUI to GSI, but it's worth it.

I've tested all other GSi builds, and I had only trouble. I stick with PixelExperience

first I made a clean fastboot flash using:

vili_global_images_V12.5.10.0.RKDMIXM_20211211.0000.00_11.0_global

I took the vbmeta thats inside the image folder.

working commands:

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot reboot fastboot (=fastbootd)

fastboot flash system PixelExperience_arm64-ab-vndklite-12.0-20220208-UNOFFICIAL.img

fastboot reboot recovery

wipe data (Mi Recovery)

After your setup flash magisk.img

fastboot (NOT fastbootd !) flash boot magisk.img

That worked for me

Finally I found a better and perfect working solution:

Pixel Experince SLIM works, because its under 3 GB. Here are my new steps:

1. fastboot flash_all vili_global_images_V12.5.10.0.RKDMIXM_20211211.0000.00_11.0_global

2. let it reboot to the setup screen and turn it off

3. fastboot boot twrp.img (no need to install)

4. update through twrp to miui_VILIGlobal_V13.0.1.0.SKDMIXM_e7e8f0ef90_12.0.zip

5. it shows some errors, but it's still booting up to the setup screen. Turn off

6. From now on: everything in FastbootD (fastboot reboot fastboot)

7. fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img (see attached extracted vbmeta from MIUI 13)

8. fastboot erase system

9. fastboot flash system PixelExperience_arm64-ab-slim-12.0-20220221-UNOFFICIAL.img

10. fastboot reboot recovery

11. wipe data in Mi Recovery

12. reboot and done

13. for magisk you will find attached the pachted boot image from MIUI 13, and the extracted vbmeta. I flashed magisk in regular fastboot mode. Don't know if thats right, but it's working.
P.S. everything was flashed into slot_b (didn't change anything)


Now the screen brightness works, d2tw is working and it passes safetynet
