2. After unlocking bootloader and rebooting device, shut it down again and enter fastboot mode by pressing vol minus and power button together
Assuming that you've already installed Platform tools and is aware how to start the adb-fastboot shell , open platform tools in terminal/CMD (depending on os) and follow these steps ( Make sure that you've moved the appropriate vbmeta file you downloaded earlier in this guide to platform tools folder. Also move the phh/phh based gsi you've downloaded into platform tools folder and rename it to system.img )
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot reboot fastboot
# Your device will boot to recovery , dont touch anything in recovery, just focus on the commands below
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot erase system
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
Now in 99% of cases, if you didn't mess up anything, gsi will boot normally, Incase it doesn't, you can either flash stock ROM using this guide or message me (who published this guide here) at Instagram or telegram . I'll try to help out if you've the basic common sense(s)
