Therefore this ZIP also disables the Updater, however, you can manually install any October builds you want, for November and December If there are any changes I’ll post new zip here each time, alternatively you can delete the build.prop changes yourself).
> Magisk Canary: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SVk…ew?usp=sharing (recommended build).

I’ve just digged up my old Xiaomi phone, the vince. I have tried to flash PixExp ROM version 10/10+ but the OrangeFox recovery can’t install it because of error 7 (something like “are you sure you install on the right device” warning). Version 9/9+ worked seamlessly though.
Does it have anything to do with firmware since I can only find the firmware from August 2019 which is kinda outdated today.
Thanks in advance everyone who could help.
Android 1o based ROMs require updated bootloader. So please do a quick google search on that. If you need further help we will check out the issue
