BACKUP ALL your data and system files in a MicroSD or external Device
The firts STEP was very IMPORTANT FOR ME. I was trying very things for be able to use Android 11 and all GSI ROMS cause Bootloop logo animation. When I Flashed the FULL OTA with HURUPDATER the problem was solved and the ROM don't stuck in bootlooop.​1. Flash full OTA from you STOCK Recovery or using HURUPDATER (in my case the version 8.0.0.333 >>>>> Huawei Mate 10 Lite RNE-L03 RNE-LX3 Rhone-L03 8.0.0.333(C25CUSTC25D1) Firmware 8.0.0 r1 EMUI8.0}) It must be EMUI8.0 not nougat
1.1 IF you are going to use HURUPDATER, please use the correct custom recovery (in mate 10 lite, twrp 0.5 works perfect for it)
1.2 RE-Unlock Bootloader (Because after flash OTA, your bootloader be locked)
2.1 With the TWRP 0.5 installed, you must decrypt the phone
- Flash the file Huawei-Decrypt (check attach files in this post)
- Format data from TWRP
- Then, Wipe data and factory reset, and system.
2.2 Search and Download a GSI ROM for A-only devices, in my case i've used it https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...0-devices-emui8.3936745/page-14#post-85690559 (Download the ROM and extract file img.xz into .img in your SD or your internal storage phone). You could search ROM using {Mod edit}
3. Installation (You need to decrypt phone, STEP 2.1)
Using Twrp 0.5 test ( recommended twrp )
- Wipe system data & cache.
- Flash crDroid image (OR the ROM, if you stay try using other ROM maybe could need it. Files for fixes OR flash the AIO-A11-GSIs file, in my case with this ROM, i dont need it by now.).
- Resize system.
- Optional: Flash gapps (be careful, latest nikgapps seem broken) this version works perfectly.
-Optional: Flash magisk (rename apk to zip, and after booting, vis versa to install the apk ) from here or here (don't use another version)

Hey bro i recommend you, install Siberia kernel, and use a updated ROM, DotOs is die, is very pretty but works very bad for us device, please check
https://sourceforge.net/projects/altairfr-huawei/files/ (here are all files for our PRA device, ROMS, patch for fixes, etc. Try use the most recently updated)
I suggest install LeaOs18.1 (Download PRA version, extract IMG, flash it.) and Siberia kernel (Download, extract img, install from bootloader using fastboot). Remeber that the LeaOs 18.1 Requiere use a patch -> 1-Huawei-DataPrep-DeCrypt-A-v1.0-signed.zip (Install it after flash system, and keep in mind that when flashing it, the data files will be erased)
You could follow way similitar to the this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/bah2-guide-install-a11-from-emui-8-fix-audio.4520305/
Is like the us Huawei but dont use BAH2 patches, instead try dont use only DataPrep patch, because the new ROMS include the all patches for our PRA phones. Maybe you don't need install additional patches.

You could flash directly LeaOs over system image, and then use factory reset on TWRP, the apply 1-Huawei-DataPrep-DeCrypt (It is very important, if not could get bootloop). And dont forget install siberia kernel. Greetings !
