Before starting on the AOSiP custom ROMs for Nexus 5, I have to warn you that this is no child’s play. You need to have perfect knowledge of your device and how to flash custom ROMs on it before you even consider playing with your device.
How to install Android 8.0 Oreo AOSiP ROM on Nexus 5
- Download Android 8.1 Oreo AOSiP custom ROM for Nexus 5 and Google Apps 8.1 Nougat for Nexus 5 (hammerhead).
- Now reboot into TWRP. To boot into TWRP, first turn off your device and Then press Power and Volume Down until you enter Fastboot Mode. From here you use the volume buttons to scroll up and down and use the Power button to confirm. Highlight Recovery Mode and press Power to enter custom recovery.
- Once the phone enters into TWRP Recovery, perform a full data wipe task by Select “Wipe” from the main menu of the TWRP recovery and then select “Swipe to factory reset” option on the bottom of the screen.
- Return to the main TWRP menu and choose Install. Browse and select the
AOSiP-7.0-Derp-hammerhead-20171208.zip file which you copied earlier to your phone’s SD card in the second step. Swipe to Install/Flash in order to begin the flashing process.
- Now return to home in the TWRP and tap on the install option. Navigate to the open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20180516.zip file and select it.
- Once both the Gapps and ROM are installed, and then select “Reboot System” button.
Your phone will now reboot. That’s it! You have successfully installed AOSIP Oreo on your Nexus 5. If the reboot takes a bit long time, you do not need to worry because this is normal.
