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

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

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?
