Dirty Flash update for R (Not always Recommended)

Remember that Dirty flash can cause issues in the long run. Consider using it only if you really haven't got time for a proper clean flash.

Install via SHRP or OrangeFox Recovery:

1) Wipe System, vendor, cache and dalvik cache

2) Install the update of the rom you were using

3) Install the same gapps package or an updated version of the one you were using

"Skip step 3 if you are using MicroG"

3 - Alpha) If there is a newer release of the main kernel, Install it here.

4) Reboot into recovery again.

5) Install, all at once: Magisk Debug, then, Magisk Beta V21.1 , then reboot your device normally.

Note at the bottom: for additional stuff, like Google Pay or Magisk setup (for R only, and only if you've installed Gapps, since MicroG users have already setted up everything) click here :D
