There are three problems with crdroid, the dual card manager cannot work quickly, the hotspot cannot be used, and the system cannot mount the phone storage
I did the same process as you, but it's been a while and it's still on the crDroid logo. does it take that long or do I need to do a reset before booting? I'm thinking it's bootloop

Alslamalikom (Peace be upon you) .. I hope you are well🌻.... I had the same problem, in samsung a22 4g after updating Android 13, it only turned on the Samsung logo, then it restart.. Bootloop


🚫 I just subscribed.. to warn you so that no one will make same mistake .. My storage size is 128 GB and it is full of family personal and for me, and it was not possible to format it so as not to lose it.. Also, the mobile was under warranty, and I did not want to go to the agency, because they would say format or they would be able to open it, and it contains special family things


So I used Odin and the ROM version 🔋a225fxxu3cvk3🔋 and another object such as bootloader and others, and the download began, and all my hope is to open The device does not delete anything


Thank Allah , in any case, the device was opened, but an automatic format was made for the device and everything was lost as if it was new... So I liked that no one did and lost his data as me🥹


And as kind member here called (nanawa)🌸 said, try when an update comes out, not the same ROM or Older than on the mobile phone


But everyone who installs the ROM is at her/his own risk


I will put it here and 2 another topics related to the problem and i will leave

Best wishes,, alslamalikom 🌷

I tried flashing project elixir 3.5 gsi on my a22 4g in twrp and I got the error message "file size is bigger than target device" so would it boot if I used adb instead. And treble info says the bootable gsi are arm64 ab so is that wrong

    Hi there, I'm a noob regarding to this, but I was able to follow this guide successfully for my A225m.

    But I'd like to understand what's going on here, can you give an explanation about each step and what does it do?

    Also, can the vbmeta flashing be done _without_ Odin? For example using only fastboot (which works on Linux unlike Odin).
    https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/avb/+/master/README.md this is documentation about vbmeta

    i think it cant be flashed without odin before twrp is installed

    Caos Worked fast here but some stuffs did not, like Digital Fingerprint, USB file sharing (just on recovery mode) and the cameras do not count, due to a problem on them, so I can't say if it worked or not.

    Wireless worked on 2.4 and 5.8 GHz

    Dual Sim+SD card worked fine, all at the same time.

    Now I am goint to try another rom... this time will be the "lineage-19.1-20220410-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS.img".... Let's see what will happen...
    a melhor GSI é a Pixel Experience...funciona super fluida ..mas tem os mesmos bugs
