Infinix Hot 10. Announced Sep 2020. Features 6.78″ display, MT6769V chipset, 5200 mAh battery, 128 GB storage, 6 GB RAM.

Important device info most people should know.

Device Info: ARM64, VNDK (Not Lite), A-only, System-as-root, No seamless Update

Hardware status summary or important caveats:

Make a full dump as a backup beforehand via SoC (mtkclient works), this phone is really fragile and you'll most likely need to use BROM to recover every now and then
You only can install a GSI that has an unzipped size of 3.6gb at max safely after erasing product (You should be able to erase system_ext too)

Unlock your bootloader
Make a full dump as a backup (Optional, highly recommended incase you hardbrick. Check mtkclient for this)
Get stock firmware that matches your current build number on settings (Or just get it from the dump earlier)
Reboot to bootloader (fastboot) via combo or via adb reboot bootloader
Disable verity and verification via fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img --disable-verity --disable-verification
Reboot to fastbootd via fastboot reboot fastboot
If your GSI unzipped size is 1.4gb or lower, you can immediately flash it as system via fastboot flash system example_arm64_gsi.img
If your GSI unzipped size is higher (1.6-3.6gb) and you get Not enough space to resize partition while flashing it, try fastboot resize-logical-partition product 33500 (you can probably delete the logical partition it but I just resize it just to be safe) and then flash system via fastboot flash system example_arm64_gsi.img

System-as-root requires you to get an AB gsi, however since seamless-update is not present. The actual slots are actually a-only. Thus you can wipe product and system_ext rather than product_a, product_b, system_ext_a, system_ext_a, system_ext_b, and the other system's slot. This limits us quite heavily.
