I tried stock and pico all gave me a bootloop, i selected the right cpu architecture and android version and flashed it, which was successful but couldn't boot to desktop. I even tried to copy some folders manually to system/priv-app, it didn't copy because the folder is secured/readonly. The phone is rooted with magisk.

if you copied using a file manager app, then ensure that the file manager has root.
most file managers have a special settings to enable accessing root folder. so go through yours, find it and enable it then retry copying the files and setting the right permissions

try this
first remount system as rw
Code:

adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system

then open a new adb window and copy the gapps files using adb push command
Code:

e.g
adb push phonesky.apk /system/priv/Phonesky/

set the right permissions for the apk files and the parent folders
for apk files
Code:

adb shell su -c "chmod 644 /system/priv/Phonesky/*.apk"

for parent folders
Code:

adb shell su -c "chmod 755 /system/priv/Phonesky"

in the first adb window, unmount system as rw
Code:

mount -o ro,remount /system

then reboot the phone

different approach

Code:

adb push Phonesky /sdcard
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
mkdir /system/priv-app/Phonesky
dd if=/sdcard/Phonesky/base.apk of=/system/priv-app/Phonesky/base.apk
chmod 644 /system/priv-app/Phonesky/base.apk
chmod 755 /system/priv-app/Phonesky
mount -o ro,remount /system

then reboot the phone

the first command (adb push), you can manually copy the phonesky folder (and all other folders) directly to your phone's internal storage using MTP and you won't need the first command

base.apk is temp name, change it to whatever you see within the folders
phonesky is temp name as well, change it to the folder name containing the apk file as seen within the gapps zip
