Guides

Written for people who are doing it

Unlocking, rooting, flashing, building and recovering. Each guide is the sequence that actually works, with the mistakes that catch people out.

What unlocking does, why it wipes the device, and how to do it without bricking anything.

Patch the boot image, flash it, and confirm root without breaking over-the-air updates.

The order of operations that keeps your data, and the recovery steps if something goes wrong.

Set up the build environment, sync AOSP, and produce a flashable image for your device.

Compile the GKI kernel with your device's sources and modules, and flash it safely.

The steps that bring a device back when it won't boot, and when each one applies.
