Hope the app grows.

Note that i want to run this app on a device that is not rooted yet. but since i and other guys are close to a system shell (that we obtained on samsung) and we can port it to other brands, also we have been able to boot gsis in samsung phones. So next are other brands. I tried on ZTE Blade A5 2019 but it gives error parsing the package. Can you please fix that? thanks

Also you say that the DSU was introduced on A10 but i tried treble check and the device is compatible

Using OnePlus 8 pro. Before using DSU sideloader, I used the inbuilt system DSU loader to install and successfully boot googles latest gsi but as soon as I try to use the sideloader app, that fails and then even the system inbuilt loader fails too. I don't understand as it used to work just fine. V1 didn't but v2 did but not anymore. Logs attached

would it be possible to use the sd card storage instead of the internal memory?

Phone: Xiaomi 11T
MIUI 13.0.8
Android 12SP1A210812016
non rooted
When I try to start installation from adb shell with this command: adb shell ' sh "/storage/emulated/0/gsi/workspace_dsuhelper/install" '
I got this error: /system/bin/sh: sh /storage/emulated/0/gsi/workspace_dsuhelper/install : inaccessible or not found
Can you help me?

I have unlocked bootloader and disabled vbmeta.
My device's android version is 12.1. Now I need to try a gsi which android version is lower than 12.1. But I can't boot to it after finishing installing the gsi,it will go into the bootloader.
Is there any way to solve the problem?

I have a 256gb phone and am at 60% usage so this app won't load
What's the logic behind the 40% test?

Thanks

As described in the android docs:
dsu.zip {
- system.img
- product.img
}

When running the latest version of the app, it all seems successful until it gets to the point of running a command through ADB. It always gives an error of
Error type 3 Error: Activity class {com.android.dynsystem/com.android.dynsystem.VerificationActivity} does not exist.
Despite then showing that the installation has started, no notification appears.
Device is an Xperia 5 III US model running the latest android 12 update with a locked bootloader.

Add small asterisk with
Select a GSI to install
**accepted formats are: gz, xz, img and zip (only DSU packages)

Or

Check if it is a DSU Package or just a zip file with hairy

I'm trying to install gsi on my mitv, it has no navbar and DocmentUI app, so i tried this app.
I chose root mode and normally it should have all the permissions, right?
I just clicked ”设定“

I guess a log file may be needed to fix this, but I don't know how to get it.

Under certain circumstances, loading a DSU through this app on a Google Pixel 6a device may trigger a bug that persists through factory reset.

The device will display “Your Device is corrupted and cannot be trusted”. before every boot. The message persisted after performing a restore from factory image (preserving user data).

The likely cause was LSposed, Magisk, and Zygote. However, in my testing, Magisk and Zygote resulted in a reboot back to the original OS without the error.

I was still able to successfully boot a Google Android 13 GSI and my normal OS even after the error occurred.

It may be the VNDK-Lite Phh GSI floss 64 ab build from June 2022 that triggered the flag.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/new-solution-without-wiping-pixel-6-pro-irregular-error-message-your-device-is-corrupt-it-cant-be-trusted-and-may-not-work-properly.4400091/

The solution (found on XDA was to flashing an older boot.img to reset the corruption flag.

The screen went away after flashing the stock boot from Android 13 because it was the only other system image available with a different security month. (July 2022 vs August 2022).

However using this app to install a DSU seems to have triggered the corruption flag and likely bug.

Downloaded latest AOSP from PHH: AOSP 12.0 v402

Packed it as a GZIP on PC, got the size for it on PC as well ( du -b system.img )

Selected the GZIP on the app, infromed the system bytes size, selected userdata do be 16GB ( I've set as default using the app settings )

Flashed, all went good, but when I rebooted to the DSU, the whole system has only 8GB avaliable

Btw, I'm brazilian.

Sometimes I have ROMs in .zip which includes partitions in .dat.br:
rom.zip:

• META-INF
• system.new.dat.br
• system.patch.dat
• system.transfer.list
• vendor.new.dat.br
• vendor.patch.dat
• vendor.transfer.list
• product.new.dat.br
• ...
  It will be great to add converting this roms to GSIs to make them able installing in DSU

I've always fail to install gsi using dsu, at first it was fine i can install 5+ gsi without issue. But now it's keep fail and even I've install the same gsi that works before now it doesn't work anymore

Also I used only apk first but now using the magisk module also doesn't do anything

Edit : I'm sorry i think it's because my storage. I just removed something from 16gbs to 23gbs and now it's started to work again. But i have question how much storage i need because i only have 64gb model

Hello! When I try to Install some Android 13 GSI from Nippon GSI. The App it's Crashing. I'm using MIUI 12.5.12 and my Device is Redmi 9T - Chime

Any possibility to keep userdata for a true dual boot feeling? I'm guessing this is controlled by the underlying DSU services and can't be changed from the app...

The app stops working when I click on install button, no matter wich GSI Rom or compression I choose. No logs or error messages.

For this case, I'm trying to install Google GSI for Android 12.

My environment:

• A Samsung Galaxy S20FE g970g/ds
• Stock OneUi 4 (android 12)
• Magisk 24.1
• Device supports dynamic partitions
• 96GB free on storage

I created a Roms folder in my internal memory and put permissions there. After that, I picked the rom on downloads folder and let everything else by default on app, and when I click on install, the app crashes.

I don't know how to provide more informations or logs, but let me know if there is something I can do.

You need to have custom recovery for it to work. I have a pixel 4xl and I tried many gsi but none of them work all at the moment of restarting they take me to the recovery stock

I downloaded the GSI file and normally followed the instructions. App said to run the adb command to start installation I ran the command, A popup appeared in my phone for asking the password, I entered the password, some commands ran and nothing happened!

Device Poco C3 (MIUI 12.0.16.0) Based on Android 10

Thanks in Advance

Please make a magisk module, increase the userdata size!!, My phone can only set 18G maxium, I am running Android 11

I installed it to Lenovo Xiaoxin PadPro 2021. Its an Android 11 system with DSU support.
The default Android 12 GSI runs fine with buildin option.

I installed this app (non root) and installed GSI rom, but upon restart, it just restarted to original rom. The option is still there at notification bar to ask me to "discard" or "restart". Tried restart many times, all reboot back to mainos.

Hello, how could I flash Magisk on it?
After booting to recovery I flash same with main rom version (24.1) but after installation Magisk manager shows its not installed (on DSU rom)
Or how could I edit system files from DSU rom?

Device:Google Pixel 4a (5G)
Android Version:13(Tiramisu)
DSU Sideloader Version:1.03

Normally, when you touch Got It, the file selection screen is displayed, but it is not displayed in my environment.

It cannot be installed on MIUI13
I tried adb and the problem remained the sam

Thanks for making this app available! May I ask what license you're putting it under? Without any license, it's "all rights reserved" and thus not "truly free" 😉

Hello, I can install system.img but I don't know how to install vendor for this system.img
Do u know how to do it or can I implement it in the future?
Thanks for your help!
And which vendor is using right now?

Everything went smoothly but after executing the command the gsi wouldn't install any idea why this is happening here's the logs

Hello,

I tried using a GSI version of Resurrection Remix OS (compressed gapps) with this app, didn't get an error from within the app, but rather it rebooted into stock recovery with an error at the bottom saying something about locales and Odin (which was what i used to flash Magisk onto this device). Can provide a picture if needbe.

Device is a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 (SM-T500) running stock Android 11 with magisk

Is it just the GSI rom or could it be something else?

Thanks in advance

I have an STG H10 (MT6737M) running Android 10 Go (ARM64 (32 Bit Mode)) trying to install LineageOS 20 a64 from Andy Yan's repo using DSUv2, my installation fails at the 60-70% mark, here are .

My problem with the app is the following, regardless of the value I put in "userdata" it always stays at 8gb, what intrigues me is that in the "Install" script, it has the value I had previously set (32gb).

Hi, I can't seem to install any GSIs with this app; I have the latest version of Magisk, my bootloader is unlocked, and I have tried the stock ROM as well as various different custom ROMs but they all fail to install. I even flashed vbmeta per this comment #18 (comment) and did a factory reset but the issue persists. Attached is the most recent logfile.

Any assistance would be appreciated!

Help me

I have a theory that it is failing for people because one of two things. Including myself because it worked before but not now.

1. Inactive slot is not clear and we need instructions on how to clear the slot if it is not clear already such as after an update install that never got discarded
2. Active slot is not changing for some reason where it was changing successfully before.

In the first case, we need information about HOW to clear the inactive slot. Second can be resolved by switching active manually upon reboot

So as other people here, I'm stuck not being able to boot the DSU after a succesful installation.

As mentionned in #15, I tried flashing Google's empty vbmeta.img with the --disable-verity --disable-verification flags, but I just get a bootloop.
Also tried flashing my own vbmeta.img with the same flags or reinstalling Magisk with the echo KEEPVERITY=false>>/data/.magisk method, to no avail.

Am I stuck just having to format and flash the empty vbmeta, or is there another way for me to disable AVB without performing a factory reset ? :)
