Hey guys,

Been out of the loop a while but ive recently been motivated to customise and build a GSI for my own personal use (which, if I do, I'll release on XDA of course), but I have a question for y'all:

I also want to make a custom TWRP for dualboot, since Poco is my daily I want to have a backup ROM in case the Dev ROM goes bad while I'm out.

Has anybody tried messing around with GPT? Has anybody gotten a hard brick? Has anybody bricked and successfully unbricked? I don't want to mess around with dualboot until I'm confident that I won't destroy my phone haha.

Cheers!

Hey guys,

If you have a bricked Poco, maybe we can use the same method for bypassing Mi8 EDL authorisation? Since the Poco is very similar, maybe we can figure something out [emoji846]

See https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/how-to/unbrick-mi8-edl-authorized-account-t3896677

Latest post is recent and reports unbrick success.
