## SIGN IN DOESN'T WORK CURRENTLY.
## SIGN IN DOESN'T WORK CURRENTLY. (Unless you use the fix at the bottom)
### THIS IS FOR TESTING

Download MSIXBUNDLE (use store rg-adguard to download the msixbundle, Package id: 9P3395VX91NR, Ring: SLOW, size is around 1.2GB)

INSTALL WSL2 (ubuntu/debian, any other distro could work)

INSTALL unzip lzip

DOWNLOAD GAPPS PICO FROM OPENGAPPS (x86_64, 11, PICO)

EXTRACT MSIXBUNDLE, EXTRACT MSIX (YOUR ARCH) TO A FOLDER, DELETE (APPXMETADATA, APPXBLOCKMAP, APPXSIGNATURE, \[CONTENT_TYPES\])

COPY IMAGES (SYSTEM.IMG, SYSTEM_EXT.IMG, PRODUCT.IMG, VENDOR.IMG) TO #IMAGES

COPY (GAPPS PICO ZIP) TO #GAPPS

EDIT (VARIABLES.sh) AND SET ROOT FOLDER

EXECUTE AS SUDO:
- extract_gapps_pico.sh
- extend_and_mount_images.sh
- apply.sh
- unmount_images.sh

COPY IMAGES FROM (#IMAGES FOLDER) TO YOUR EXTRACTED MSIX FOLDER

OPEN POWERSHELL (NOT CORE) AS ADMIN, EXECUTE (Add-AppxPackage -Register PATH_TO_EXTRACTED_MSIX\AppxManifest.xml)
DEVELOPMENT MODE HAS TO BE ENABLED BEFOREHAND. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T HAVE WSA ALREADY INSTALLED, THEY CAN'T COEXIST.

RUN WSA WITH GAPPS, ENJOY
### Download msixbundle (~1.2GB)
Use this [link](https://store.rg-adguard.net/) to download the msixbundle with the settings ProductId: 9P3395VX91NR, Ring: SLOW

### Install WSL2
Ubuntu is used in this guide but any other distro will work for this

(We are assuming that you are using the exact terminal, and you are also continuing this from where the last command left off)

### Install unzip lzip
For Ubuntu
```
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install unzip lzip
```

### Download gapps
Select Platform: x86_64 if Windows architecture is x64 otherwise choose ARM64, Android: 11 and Variant: Pico on [OpenGApps](https://opengapps.org/)

### Extract msixbundle
Download 7zip or a similar archival program and open the recently downloaded msixbundle. Find the msix file inside the msixbundle relating to your architecture and extract that to a folder.
Delete the files appxblockmap, appxsignature and \[content_types\] along with the folder appxmetadata

### Clone this repo and populate the directories
For Ubuntu
```
git clone https://github.com/ADeltaX/WSAGAScript
cd WSAGAScript/\#IMAGES
mv /mnt/path-to-extracted-msix/*.img .
cd ../\#GAPPS
cp /mnt/path-to-downloaded-gapps/*.zip .
```
paths in wsl follow the same as windows after /mnt/ its just the drive letter then folder structure as normal. For example /mnt/c/users would be the c:\users folder


### Edit scripts
Set executable permission for the scripts
```
cd..
sudo chmod +x extract_gapps_pico.sh
sudo chmod +x extend_and_mount_images.sh
sudo chmod +x apply.sh
sudo chmod +x unmount_images.sh
```
Change the root directory in VARIABLES.sh
```
pwd
```
(take note of the output)
```
nano VARIABLES.sh
```

replace the root variable with the output of pwd up until and including the WSAGAScript folder


### Run the scripts
```
sudo ./extract_gapps_pico.sh
sudo ./extend_and_mount_images.sh
sudo ./apply.sh
sudo ./unmount_images.sh
```

### Copy the edited images
```
cd \#IMAGES
cp *.img /mnt/path-to-extracted-msix/
```
### Register the edited WSA
Enable developer mode in windows settings
Uninstall any other installed versions of WSA
Open powershell as admin and run ```Add-AppxPackage -Register path-to-extracted-msix\AppxManifest.xml```

WSA will install with gapps

# WORKAROUND FOR SIGN IN ISSUE:
## (ADB SHELL ROOT WITH su)
Copy the kernel file from this repo and replace the kernel file inside the Tools folder of your extracted msix (make sure WSA is not running)

COPY (kernel FILE) FROM (misc FOLDER) TO (Tools FOLDER) IN YOUR EXTRACTED MSIX FOLDER

NOW YOU CAN USE su IN ADB SHELL
ENTER ADB SHELL, TYPE su THEN TYPE setenforce 0
YOU CAN NOW SIGN IN

This will allow you use use su inside adb shell

This readme will be rewritten very soon
Enter adb shell and run
```
su
setenforce 0
```
You can now sign in
