Flashing Instructions

Pre-installation

• T-Virus (Download here)
• TWRP (Download from here)
• NikGapps (Download from here)

First time installation

• Backup your device data to a PC or OTG flash drive.
• Flash T-Virus with NOST and reboot to recovery.
• Download and copy crDroid and TWRP zip to the Internal Storage and flash them in that order.
• Format userdata and reboot to recovery to swich to the updated slot.
• Flash NikGapps and wipe the Dalvik Cache (or else the system will not boot).
• Reboot to system and enjoy.

Installing from previous release

• Backup your data to PC, OTG flash drive.
• Reboot to recovery, copy crDroid and TWRP zip to the Internal Storage and flash them in that order.
• Reboot to recovery to swich to the updated slot and flash Gapps.
• Reboot to system

Troubleshooting
When flashing the ROM in TWRP, it fails at Step 2
To fix this, flash any TWRP >= v2.4 which contains a fix for slot switching

After flashing TWRP v2.x the folders have weird names and I cannot copy stuff to the internal storage
You forgot the format userdata before rebooting.
The GSI in T-Virus is A10 and uses software encryption. My TWRP builds use hardware based decryption blobs which
are incompatible with software encrypted userdata. My ROM uses hardware encryption so that is not a problem.
But when you do not format data and install TWRP v2.x then it cannot decrypt the userdata created by A10 GSI.
So always format data before installing TWRP v2.x releases

That was fast...
T-virus of yourself (2020) I believe... Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[emufan4568]

You can use any T-Virus you like. My own though contains an updated TWRP version which supports ROM flashing. If you use any older one, it is necessary to flash my new TWRP releases before you atempt to flash the ROM.

After Installing Magisk My Device Stuck on Boot

Just tested on my phone, and Magisk works fine without causing any bootloops. What version are you flashing? You need to use version v21.0 and higher which supports Android 11

Same magisk caused bootloop.
Installed per instructions, wifi and sim do not work as well. Nokia 8 TA-1012

It is most probably a hardware problem with your device. All of my testers never reported Wi-Fi/SIM issues except Dual SIM. Does Wi-Fi work for you on stock ROM or in any other ROM?

Flash new TWRP so you can update without having to repeat the whole process.

Do these instructions/ROM work on TA-1052?

Nokia 8 hardware is unique. It's Google that differentiate them. So, yes.

Excellent work, but the play store does not install apps larger than 500MB (if it "downloads", but does not install), I tried reinstalling nikgapps, clearing cache and google app data and nothing.
