Hi
I am new to flashing ROMs and attempted to update my mi pad 4 plus using this YT guide with minor differences like using a newer mi unlock program. I also used the havoc OS (26th Aug) and gapps link from the first page of this thread. Apologies, I can't post the link directly since I do not have enough post count.
YT: [ How To ] Root Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 | TWRP | Install Custom ROMs by Life Kommando
Mi unlock version 3.5.1108.44
After completing the steps and rebooting, the tablet is stuck at the Havoc OS circling animation for at least 30 min. I have retried the steps in the video thrice without success.
A couple of differences I could discern between my results as opposed to the video
1) The mi unlock message I got was different than the one showed in the video. I had a message that said something like "unlock is successful, do not need to retry", however, the icon displayed was a single red cross. The video (at 1:08) shows 3 green ticks
2) The video showed the person copying the rom, gapps and su file to an empty directory while mine was with the default directories still present.
Please advice what I can do next? Thanks in advance
