Release v0.5.2-beta

This is a beta release of the OpenAndroidInstaller.

Linux, MacOS and Windows are supported, but the testing is mainly done on under Ubuntu 20.04/22.04. Note, that currently there is no support for ARM-based systems.

Warning

This application is currently in beta state, so use at your own risk! I take no responsibility for bricked devices or dead SD cards.

This release v0.5.2-beta adds:

• mi439 twrp name to directly resolve to twrp download
• improved documentation (thanks to @SirRGB)
• improve error message for loading images (addresses #394 and #354)
• improve behaviour when rescaling the installer (addresses #379)

Newly supported devices:

• OnePlus 3/3T (oneplus3) (thanks to @SirRGB)
• Redmi 9 Poco M2 (lancelot) (thanks to @anon1892)

Fixes:

• Bug where installer crashes when sideloading progress goes over 100%
• Properly handle exceptions while processing the ROM zip file (File is not a zip file, file is a zip file but does not contain metadata file) (thanks to @anon1892)
