                  I'm using stock Android (8) as a base and installed everything according to the documentation and your post.

                  The device is popping up in the device list but the name is "Failed to boot". I guess the image was made for Android 9.. so wrong base? Which should I use?

                    @jiho thanks
                    Did you installed vendor.img?
                    There is twrp install file which more simple and it install all needed files

                      @walidham Thanks for the TWRP file, very easy to apply. :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:
                      I installed it but even then I'm getting "Failed to boot".

                        @jiho can you reboot to recovery twrp,

                        Then :

                        adb shell
                        ls /data
                        

                        verif if android-rootfs.img & rootfs.img exists

                        Also can you give me the log under
                        /data/system-user/var/log

                        Also you must format data partition before install to remove any encryption

                          @walidham Sorry, it worked now 😄 seems like I did not format data.

                          Let me know what I need to test for you. It was a phone lying around so I'd like to help.
