Start in fastboot mode and run fastboot getvar all from your host and look for current-slot. It will be either a or b

EDIT: fastboot getvar current-slot may be easier.

Then use fastboot --set-active=a or fastboot --set-active=b to set the active slot to the opposite slot as you found it currently was set. Then follow the instructions for installing UT and it will install to the slot you just set.

EDIT: The latest UBports Blog mentions that Lineage encrypts the home directory by default which means you will not be able to share data between OS's and it could cause other unknown issues.

@keneda It is the most current thread from the active Dev so I would say yes.

This is a known issue and it is shown in the demo videos and mentioned in many posts about the first broken 6 and 6T GSI release. It may be fixed in the new release but no one on here other than the developer has manged to install the latest version.

I have remade these scripts making everything interactive and allowing you to select which slots you want to flash for both the system and recovery.

The entire thing is now on github. The release section now has all the scripts and the binary img files for Oxygen OS9 so you no longer need to create the scripts and find the files.

You just need to run

flash_all.sh

and it will guide you through reflashing the phone back to OOS9. For OOS10 just use the factory update feature.

To reflash one slot without losing data on the other slot skip wiping data and skip flashing 'persist'.

It's a sideeffect of the GSI - the way forward is to fix the CI images to have a proper 64 bit build.

@totalrando It won't. You can re-lock the bootloader only through fastboot oem. On older oneplus devices flashing OOS could also lock the bootloader, but i haven't see that happen on OP6 yet.

Well, the point of CI is that it builds for you 🙂

The architecture thingie is caused by the GSI, the CI version doesn't have these issues.

@stefwe I have already sold the oneplus 6 again...

Swiping apps is still tricky.

Try flicking down instead of up. It feels less intuitive but for myself I find it more reliable on the 6T right now.

Ok just did that. Weird experience. Imma stick with swiping up though. Just feels more right to me.

EDIT: Ok swiping down with thumb is better.

@totalrando That does seem strange and also not correct. My guess is you will need to try again. Since you now have the bootloader unlocked correctly you could try the way that is recommended rather than mine.

My script is just an automated way of doing the steps provided here plus a second script to flash the critical. You could try following the manual steps to slow it down and not get stuck with the script hanging on failures. (They talk a lot about danger but they are just covering their butts)

@antidroid said in [Halium 9 / GSI] using the Oneplus 6:

Does anyone have a timeline for when a newer GSI will be available for testing? Or better when the 6/6T will get UBports installer integration and OTA support?

@totalrando said in [Halium 9 / GSI] using the Oneplus 6:

@antidroid I'm not totally sure there is a set timeline: I think basically someone needs to upload a recovery image and then basically submit it for inclusion. With the update you mentioned, it sounds like 6/6T are right around the corner for inclusion. Sadly, I have yet a few days to wait for the power of the FAJITA.

The switch to an OTA based build (that you can flash with fastboot) is work in progress. I've got a recovery booting (but lacking adb and there's mountpoint issues), and there's some associated issues with the regular boot now as well.

Please find us on discord or telegram if you think you can help 🙂

@rogier-oudshoorn I will remember that for the future. Thanks
