ln -s $PWD/device-xiaomi-angelican $PMAPORTS/device/testing

## How to flash
Firstly, you need to unlock bootloader (See section below).
Enter fastboot mode (hold vol- and pwr buttons while turned off), and run this commands:
1. Disable VerifiedBoot
```bash
fastboot flash vbmeta prebuilt/vbmeta_disabled.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_system prebuilt/vbmeta_disabled.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_vendor prebuilt/vbmeta_disabled.img
```
2. Flash dtbo and boot
```bash
pmbootstrap flasher flash_kernel
pmbootstrap flasher flash_dtbo
```
3. Flash system
```bash
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot delete-logical-partition product
pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs
```
