Firmware: fw_ginkgo_miui_GINKGOGlobal_V12.5.2.0.RCOMIXM_75abe1782e_11.0
Recovery: [email protected]
Device: ginkgo
OEM: Unlocked
Xiaomi Unlock: Unlocked
Developer settings: enabled
USB debugging disabled

I need help. I'm currently experiencing bootloops. I made the installation following these steps, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I tried disabling encryption, to see if it was the problem, but it didn't disable it. Besides, I could still access the flash files, through a micro sd card:

1. Boot into recovery
2. Wipe data, dalvik, cache
3. Format data
4. Flash [email protected]
5. Reboot into recovery
6. Settings>OTA & ROM>Patch ROM>Enable "Disable DM-Verity" and "Disable Forced Encryption".
7. Flash android 11 firmware
8. Flash ROM
9. Format data
10. Reboot
11. Quickly skip everything
12. Enable developer settings
13. Reboot into recovery
14. Flash Magisk-v26.1.zip
15. Reboot
16. Install Magisk-v26.1.apk
17. Received this message in Magisk app "Your device needs reflash Magisk to work properly. Please reinstall Magisk within app, recovery mode cannot get correct device info"
18. I was asked to install update.
19. Installed update through the app.
20. Reboot
21. Bootloop

Magisk zip flashing should work. If it didn't worked for you using ofox then you might try twrp official. It supports arrowos 13.1 with encryption too.

There are some gcams that show image stabilization options. Not sure whether they work or not as i haven't used them myself, but it might be worth trying.
Thanks for your answer. I've tried 2 gcams for now but it seems that image stabilization did not work for for that.

So if anybody else tried any gcam and image stabilization works, much appreciated if you could inform it here. Thanks again.

Does anyone know how to disable the parallel space function or uninstall it from the system. It does not allow me to open an application since it takes it as fraud.

You can long press on the "power-off alarm set" notification, click on Turn off notifications, disable Power-off alarm

    The camera is good, in particular for low light images.
    But it has so many options, from which 80% I have no clue about.
    If they don't understand, don't make any changes and continue using the default.
    That's what I do.

    EDL mode recovery
    Phone status: Unable to enter BootLoader or fastboot mode, it automatically shuts down 1 second after booting.
    Tools: Ultimate Multi Tool – QcFire (UMT-QcFire requires hardware dongle.), miflash pro (requires authorized personnel account login)
    Preparation: Install the Qualocomm driver. I used miflash pro for one-click installation.

    1. Enter the edl mode of the phone and connect it to the computer (the port in the device manager shows Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008).
    2. Open UMT-QcFire or miflash pro for recovery. (I am using UMT-QcFire. But both tools require authorization, and some older devices may not require authorization).
    3. UMT-QcFire select the flash option, select Multi Program Mode, select the images of the firmware package in Firmware, and click flash to recovery.

    Precautions & error:
    1.
    (turn off phone, hold vol up+ vol down and insert usb cable. some phones may need special boot cable or testpointfor edlmode)
    This is a communication error on port 9008. Please re-enter edl mode. I turned off the phone and connected it to the computer, then shorted the edl point again and re-entered.
    2.
    Forbidden Application [03] Detected!
    UMT-QcFire's self-protection function prevents packet capture and cracking. If relevant packet capture software is detected, this error message will be reported.(Wireshark/Charles/Fiddler/winpcap)
    Here I did not install the packet capture tool and this error occurred (maybe it was caused by my previous installation but not clean uninstallation.)
    The solution is to install winpcap and then uninstall it. (Generally there will be problems during the installation of winpcap, please solve it and complete the installation)
    If that still doesn't work, try a clean computer or virtual machine.

    About authorization:
    Authorization is probably the most troublesome point in the EDL mode recovery system. I chose a relatively cheap merchant in Taobao to purchase this authorization before I could continue.
    You can consider asking xiaomi after-sales service to inquire whether you are willing to provide an authorized account, or look for an authorized merchant to purchase.

    Hi, I don't know if it was after installing TWRP Recovery, or Magisk, after, Bluetooth did not work. I wonder if I installed an incompatible recovery or magisk. which recovery and root application are you using. Can you also give information about which version? Thanks.
    Try reflashing firmware

    I am getting the same message in English, occasionally. Gingko
    The solution to that is to not use the ****ty native camera. Use gcam.

    ... interesting and congrats! Would you mind posting here (or elsewhere) how you did this (step-by-step)? Could be helpful also for others who run into the very same calamities.
    sure. However, there is one thing about DEL mode recovery that requires an authorized account or hardware dongle. I chose to spend about $1 to purchase a license before I could continue.

    ABOUT
    ArrowOS
    is an Android Open Source Project-based Android mobile operating system started with the aim of keeping things simple, clean, neat, and organized, both for the Android system and users. We added features that will be helpful in the long run, while aiming to deliver smooth performance and longer battery life. We understand the pain of unnecessary and sometimes rarely used mods/features being shipped with custom ROMs nowadays which may end up causing battery drains and/or memory leaks & crashes. This is being strictly avoided on our side keeping everything to a bare minimum, delivering stable performance all the time without destroying the AOSP interface. With users getting more used to tweaks and features, we added just the right features and customisations that will be actually USEFUL at the end of the day.
