Hi,
I'm running on LineageOS 15.1 official. The latest update (April 3, 2018 i think) requires OnePlus 5T 5.0.4 modem update. I kinda wanna skip flashing OxygenOS 5.0.4 all together. I only wanna update the modem/firmware.
My question is: Is there any way for me to flash the modem/firmware 5.0.4 update without flashing the whole Oxygen OS 5.0.4 ?
Thanx

It's not the problem if you install ROM without firmware and bootloader

Yeah I know that... What I mean to say is. Most of the people download official ROM package from official website and try to flash update using custom recovery and this will cause mobile brick..
That's why Xiaomi suggest not to downgrade to Oreo after android pie update (miui android pie)

No it's a problem, even if you flashed firmware-less most of the functions won't work, at least that's what happened with me, no camera, no earpiece, no vibration and ofc more under the hood.
We're stuck on pie and even the custom ROMs need to be updated to the new vendor because the situation is the same.
Pie is so far so good but I'm surprised that exFAT isn't working!! now my sdcard is useless! i checked and the module is missing which is exfat.ko, don't know if they forgot to add it or what now!! also all the recoveries i tried give a problem with data and encryption so it need to be updated, other than that all is good.
Anyone tried latest xiaomi.eu build 9.3.25?

TBH I didn't try because of the problems I heard people were having. But with the original pie update I had to use orange fox recovery just to get out of encryption it was a mess. I am going to try to flash a pie rom but if you are flashing an Oreo MIUI make sure the firmware folder is not in the zip or you will brick your device.

Agreed. This seems a bit strange for me. Are you sure guys you cant simply go back to Oreo?
As long as anti is fine, it should not be a problem. Maybe there is a new mechanism now which we dont know.

I've Installed China and Global Pie then reflashed 10.2.2 without problems with MiFlash, haven't tried with custom recovery, i think you will not have problems.
Guess I will hold off MIUI Pie until its finalized.

Yes you can do anything if the anti version is same..
But Xiaomi recommends not to downgrade to Oreo after android pie update. (There won't be any problem as long as we use MiFlash tool)
Maybe Xiaomi will introduce new anti version for stable android pie update
Here http://en.miui.com/thread-6004916-1-1.html you can read moderator suggests not to flash Oreo ROM after updating to android pie.
Maybe Xiaomi moderator mentions same thing for our device during public beta release
For those stuck on the new miui pie, a possible solution:

Well, i recently bought this phone, already applied to unlock bootloader but i have to wait a week, so in the meantime i'm learning about roms based on xiaomi and custom roms...
My main concern is, i'm running MIUI Global 11.0.3 | Stable | 11.0.3(PCOIDXM) with security patch from 2020-01-01. I saw other guys with newers MIUI versions than mine, so i found about Xiaomi.EU, i read it is the best MIUI rom but i would like to get some recommendations...
Also, my main objective is to get an stable rom with good battery usage, having root and maybe install xposed with magisk but this last is not that important.
I 'm also confused about if when i charge Xiaomi EU to my phone will it keep receiving OTA? or what should i do in case i want to go back and be able to receive OTA?
Las question is, i found this site https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/20-3-19.54975/ and the last version is xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote8_20.3.19_v11-9.zip, is it compatible with all variants of Xiaomi RN8?, i found that there are 2 RN8 versions, a Global Version and an Indonesian version, comparing MIUI version i think i have and indonesian version, does the variant is important in case i want to use xiaomi eu?
Ohh, i see a did a lot of question but i post this in the hope that you guys can help this newbie to tweak his RN8

Actually RN8 has not 2 but 4 versions; Global, Chinese, Indonesian and Indian.
You can use it on any RN8 unlocked version no matter regions, it's set to global.
Since years I'm using Xiaomi.eu ROMs and over other MIUI based ROMs it's way better, great battery performance.
This ROM ever has the latest security patch updates cause is built over the Chinese version.
And regarding OTA updates; Xiaomi.eu ROMs have weekly updates.
What about the Dialer and Messaging apps? Is it the stock MIUI one or the Google ones?

honestly it doesn't have the latest security patch versions....they use old ones and advertise newest....latest beta version for example use security patches from September and they change it in build.prop so that in phone settings it says latest march/april whatever security patch...following are the two lines :
Code:
ro.build.version.security_patch=

I didn't mind that they do that, I would expect from other non reliable site to do such bad practice, many people trust in their. I didn't check from the other ROMs that are based on their too, eg., Mi Globe, etc. Let me ask you how do you know or you have some source regarding to share with us?

I know because I'm using EU beta myself..so my source which is me..is never wrong..I don't trust other websites etc too...other miui roms like miui mix,minovo,mi room etc are all built on EU so they have the same thing..old security patch..advertised as new one.

Apart from the weekly securtiy patches, is it any better than the indian rom (11.0.3) for the note 8?
Secondly, is the Indian version really behind in software updates from the global version (in terms of changes and security patches) or is it just the numbering of the versions different?

Well like I mentioned in my previous replies, you won't get any weekly patches or monthly patches for that matter...EU uses september security patch and changes build.prop so that it appears latest in phone settings...among other things it is better than stock rom (indian,global,etc etc) as it's debloated,optimized,deodexed and tweaked a lil bit..also it has all features included in china roms every week so that is cool...it also has all ads removed...although I debloat more..sure you can debloat and do everything else on your indian rom too but you have to wait for stable builds for long and you gotta repeat the debloating all over again everytime you update...
regarding difference between indian and global...mainly it is the miui apps on indian rom and google apps on global..also a bit of themes and stuff on indian and wifi calling on global...rest it's all same....don't go on the numbering of versions too much...it's all the same with a bit of this and that difference like I said.

Can confirm this ROM is better than the stock. But don't build it with magisk, it bootlooped for me, just flash it after. The beta seems to have new features to, such as when installing apps, you get options to clear cache or delete the APK file if it's sideloaded. You also need orangefox recovery, didn't work with twrp when I tried.
Hello, I was wondering if I need to update my firmware on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro (whyred).
The reason for it is because it shows "1. November 2018" as latest vendor security patch level.
I am currently running LineageOS 17.1 which is based on Android 10 together with the Lineage recovery.
Mainly I have these questions:
1. Do I need to update the vendor firmware? In other words would that even increase the Vendor security patch level?
2. When I checked this website: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/whyred/ it shows the latest Vendor Firmware to be from 2021, however with Android 9.0, would that even work with LineageOS 17.1 which is Android 10 level?
3. Would I need to flash back to the official Rom on Android 9.0 in order to then flash to the 2021 firmware ( should be included in the latest official rom anyway) and then flash back to LineageOS 17.1?
Any help is greatly appreciated as this is my first phone on LineageOS. (I did had a couple of other phones in the past with unofficial Roms so I am not a completely noob.)
Thanks and have a good day

LOS has old version of vendors. Yes from 2018.. they build on that... if you wanna updated version go to LOS github and ask there.. that's how it is, nothing can be done here. Only LOS team can help you.
Good luck and stay safe!

If you use LOS, than yes.
Maybe I am a bit dense to understand this, but shouldn't all have the same? I thought Vendor security patch level are bugfixes from the vendor, so it only makes sense to me to include the latest patches in all roms to get this baseline patch level. Ofc every ROM can feel free to increase security even further with additional patches on top of that.

Yap, but every custom Rom has it's own vendor version. LOS has old one and many custom ROMs. It's actually developer decision what version he's gonna use to build rom. That's it. Yes MIUI ROM uses latest. You can't mix them because you'll get bootloop or bricked device.
For latest version you need to ask developer to update it.

The vendor security patch level is just a setting configured here: https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...0038ae0340b1da03ae9c00ff50/BoardConfig.mk#L56
The official LOS 18.1 rom contains at least some vendor blobs from the latest MIUI V12.0.2.0.PEIMIXM rom.
That probably means the vendor security patch level date is not accurate and can be ignored.

You can flash the firmware ZIP from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/whyred/. It only updates the various firmware partitions without touching the "boot", "system" and "vendor" partitions (on which LOS is installed).
For some reason the firmware ZIP is missing the new boot logo. It can be updated manually by extracting the file "/firmware-update/splash.img" from the latest MIUI Rom and flashing it in Fastboot Mode with
Code:
fastboot flash splash splash.img

Hi,
I noticed that none of security updates or system updates come to my phone since I bought it in June 2021.
It's a Poco F3, in stock Rom. No recovery, no root. Nothing. I've only debloat it with a tool find in this sub. Maybe it's the reason ?
Right I'm on V12.5.3.0.RKHEUXM (EU) with security patch from June 2021. I noticed that version 12.5.6.0.RKHEUXM is available since one month.
Why my phone won't update ?

I have the same phone (F3 with European software version) I continuously check on the sites that contain the packs of the roms and also on the official xiaomi site, unfortunately it is still stuck at the version 12.5.3.
Version 12.5.6 is a stable beta, so for the moment only some users receive it, if there are no problems it will be released to all other users.
We will have to wait a little longer to receive the 12.5 enchanced version.

Try again guys, yesterday I flashed 12.5.6 via stock recovery, everything works fine with 12.5.6. Get full recovery rom (like 2.9 GB) and flash it (ofc it is for EU global rom). Also after installation it says that is global stable.
