Installing the GSI

NOTE: this will remove all your data! Make sure you do not set a pin on your device before flashing any of the GSI files! This will make it impossible to pass the initial device setup. Your Mileage May Vary! I am not responsible for anything that happens when you follow these steps.

  • Unlock your bootloader (there are many tutorials on how to do this)
  • Go into fastbootd (adb reboot fastboot, or from recovery fastboot reboot fastboot)
  • Download vbmeta.img from Google: https://dl.google.com/developers/android/qt/images/gsi/vbmeta.img
  • Flash vbmeta.img (fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img)
  • Then flash your system.img (fastboot flash system <your downloaded system img>.img)
  • Use the volume and power buttons on your phone to navigate to the "Enter system recovery" (or something similar) section
  • Navigate to "erase all data (factory reset)" (or something similar) and confirm
  • Navigate to "reboot to system" (or something similar
  • This should now boot you into a working GSI :)
