You still calling v2 alpha bro?Yes, best is to wait for my updated Version 2 which is almost done sine this Alpha Version 1 needs too much manual interactions to get everything working as it should!
So stay tuned.

Very promising work.. Thanks for your effort to get this working!
I don't have this device long and are not that familiar with the A/B file system..
Do we have the option to install a kernel for OOS 10 on the one partition and on the second one another one (or at least not the same at all), for a AOSP 10 based custom rom for example?
Best regards
Also Custom Rom A11 ?Yes you can install different OS and Kernels per partition (A and B).
Yes I am running a custon ROM 11 now in one slot. But for Android 11 I need to do some adjustments to the script to get it to work correctly.
Thanks a lot for the quick reply!
I am more interested in OOS 10/Android 10 based roms respective the recent OOS version and a specific kernel; not so much in Android 11.
If you refer to 'the script', do you mean the OP or the Readme in github?
I read it twice or three times, but I have to admit, that I don't really get it so far..
Okay, I see.
Do you plan to re-write the installation instructions for the newbies or other user, who aren't that experienced with this subject matter?
Yes I agree, I have to adjust the instructions a bit more to make it more clear and easier to understand. Will do that later today or tomorrow.
I first want to get it fixed with Android 11. At least I now know what the issue is I just have to see how to fix/implement this in the best way.
On github I read about the a-b-c layout.Does the 'c' by any chance stand for the common partition?
I'm looking forward to seeing the further development of this project!
Hi all!
I have updated it to Version 2.1 Beta now. :highfive:
Still no 100% Android 11 Support but at least it can be used with Android 11 now.
10/13/2020 - 3.4.0-0 v2.1
-Fixed hanging when on Android 11
Download here
What do you mean when you say no 100% Android 11 support but can be used with it. A bit confusing.
I'm getting more and more interested on this project, that's why I'll be asking some questions every now and then...some might be kinda noobish but better to be a safe noob than a sorry smart a$$!
Thank you y'all for helping me out if you can!
I'm rolling with an 8/128 OP6, with unlocked bootloader ofc, and I'm willing to keep stock/rooted oxygen OS in one partition + A11 custom ROMs (PiXeN-OS for now) in the other one.
1. What would be the recommended size for each data partition?
2. PiXeN-OS is reported to kinda only work well with a certain Magisk version.
When I choose to install Magisk from the "changing zip name" (su.AB) option or during the installation, does it mean that it'll opening the option to me to, later on, install the Magisk version I want or does it install a preset Magisk version, if so, which one does it install?
3. About the options that can be provided directly through the filename.
I can't see anything about F2FS or EXT4, just "fast-fec.ab-su.ab".
- Will I have to choose the filesystem directly into the options, prior to start the ROM flashing?
- BTW, which one would you go for?
A video showing the whole process as detailed as possible and/or covering the major doubts ppl have had so far, would help a lot!
Also, the telegram group to have discussions!
Once again, thanks @Wishmasterflo for this amazing project!
Thanks a lot for such a complete explanation! It's all clear now!Hello!
Yes better to ask more than to mess something up.
I have the 8/128 GB Oneplus 6t and I use it now with 32GB per Data partition.
I might think of adjusting these sizes a bit different since still the mounting of the Common Data partition from inside the ROMS is not working and when I had a conversation with Zackptg5 who originally wrote this dualboot for the Oneplus 7 series he said that the mounting of the Common Data partition was the most difficult thing to get working. He said sometimes it worked in one ROM but then not in another. I still have not gotten that to work now with my adjusted one for the Oneplus 6 Series and also with Android 11 there are changes in the file structure that some system files are in different locations than on Android 10 so I need to fix/adjust more things and try if I can get the mounting of the Common Data partition to work from inside the ROMs.
I would use 32GB per partition.
Yes exaclty I just flashed the latest Pixen-OS as well on one slot.
The Magisk Version which is getting installed from my TWRP-Dualboot when choosing to install it on a slot is now Magisk 21.0 so then you just select to not install Magisk from this for the slot where you have Pixen-OS installed and flash the suggested one in that slot afterwards.
For the first install you need to use the original filename and go through all the options once!
The quickmode when changing the options directly from the filename is most for the cases when you have updated one ROM and need to reflash TWRP, then you can adjust that with the options for encryption and Magisk.
You dont have all the options to specify since all the others like file system you choose once when first flashing the Dualboot-TWRP and repartiton.
The recommonded options are mentioned when flashing it and going through all options.
For the filesystem it is recommonded to use EXT4 (and I actually alsways use EXT4, have never used F2FS). I think when using F2FS you will need to have a ROM/Kernel which is compatible with F2FS.
There is a Telegram group link in the OP.
