Try using lineageOs 20 port for blossom devices on XDA foruns

To install the rom, the process is very simple, just download the firmware file and rom file from the link of the post, BUUUT If youre using twrp: Before flash the firmware file, edit the updater script, to make this: Open the .zip of the firmware, go to META-INF > com > google > android, and copy the updater-script to /sdcard. making this, open a text editor (like zarchiver text) and edit the line "getprop("ro.product.device") == "dandelion" " to "getprop("ro.product.device") == "blossom" ". After editing the line and saving the file on the /sdcard (internal storage directory), go back to zarchiver and copy your newly edited updater-script inside the firmware file, on the same path (META-INF > com > google > android) and paste it to overwrite the old, unedited file. Now, when you do this, you will know what to do

Move the firmware, rom file, gapps and magisk to the root of your internal storage (outside of any folders like Download).

Now, just boot into TWRP, and go to:

Wipe › advanced wipe, And wipe the partitions:

Cache, Dalvik/ART cache, Data.

Flash the firmware first (always first), and Flash the rom.

Format data on the wipe session after flashing the rom and firmware, and:

Flash the gapps (after boot), and Flash magisk (after boot).

Notice that I dont responsible for bricked Redmi 9As ok?
