Best way to update to firmware/modem 5.0.4?

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
/Max

diff between baseband and bootloader?

I am going to try 4.4 kernel based rom so was wondering about the above question i.e what's the diff between baseband and bootloader or both are used interchangably?
I had updated my baseband before with the zui 3.5 China version, so can i go ahead and install 4.4 kernel based roms?
Also i had installed deodexed zui 4.0.233 and it was working properly
I was in your situation recently.
I was running AiCP 13.1 + Nameless since July. Device was running butter smooth, stable and satisfactorily performance while gaming.
However since last PubG update things took nose dive while gaming. Extreme heating, horrible battery backup. So decided to move on to latest Pie.
My steps,
1. Using QPST/QFIL, installed the stocked ZUI 1.9 Chinese.
Tried to OTA but got server error while downloading ZUI 2.0
2. Downloaded the stock OTA update package of ZUI 3.5
3. Used the OTA update. It took several incremental updates till it settled for ZUI 4.0.199
This made sure I am having latest official baseband.
4. Used my previous boot unlocked image via ADB/Fastboot to unlocked the bootloader
5. Flashed latest TWRP
6. Flashed the Factory to vendor stuff
7. Flashed the latest Treble TWRP
8. Flushed AEX 6.0 + GApps Nano
Devices booted up nicely and now running AEX 6.0 for last 8 hours or so.
Thanks.

Any ROMs with OTA support? (Pie)

Considering rooting my OP5T for a ROM which has OTA support so that I don't have to cleanwipe (I hate dirty flashing) and is preferably running Pie.
Any ideas?
I run crDroid and it has OTA support, I update it every time it's available and I didn't get any problem yet.

Well, i'm confused for the Android Pie update.

Ok, well.
I saw that i can install android pie on my already rooted oneplus 5t (android oreo 8.1, OxygenOSS 5.1.7).
I downloaded the file from xda, updated TWRP at last version, downloaded also last Magisk version for rooting after updating my android version.
I got "Zip treble compatibility error" That i didn't know what is it so i searched and i found out that i had to remove the "compatibility" zip in the zip of that downloaded update.
I did it and it didn't worked again.
What is happening why i can't get android pie?
Also, are there any problems with this build? In searchings i read that the phone doesen't recognize the 100% of batterylife and keep get charged and can be ruined.
What if you download the android pie beta from the oneplus.com website. ive been using this for a month or so and it worked fine for me, especially when you're used to OOS.
So if i download the rom from there, i got no "Zip treble compatibility" error?
i can speak only for blu_spark software but this worked for me:
use TWRP 9.85 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=30332) to update FROM 5.1.7 to pie (remove compatibility.zip for this update)
once you are ON pi, install
TWRP 9.91 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=31102) for any update from now onwards (no need to remove the compatibility.zip any more)
use the rom from this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-7-2-7-1-1-ota-t3709265
official rom: http://otafsg.h2os.com/patch/amazon...TOxygen_43_OTA_045_all_1901072301_6ada5c1.zip
I am going back becouse xposed framework is not supported on android pie
by the way i post here how i got pie from oreo becouse i faced lot of problems!
-First of all download the official update
-then, the only twrp i found that work is this: https://eu.dl.twrp.me/dumpling/twrp-3.2.3-0-dumpling.img.html the 3.2.3.1 didn't worked for me.
-i had to flash magisk uninstaller and then install magisk, i got bootloops before doing uninstall and then install.
Btw i am downloading another rom for 8.1 becouse xposed don't work for now on 9.
Any suggest for changing the rom? I am searching what to get
thanks anyway guys

Help with miui stable beta 11.0.2.0

I flashed the latest closed beta miui 11.0.2.0 but I found a lot of issues with the magisk root, the magisk manager says it installed but some apps didn't work properly like titanium backup, I tried to restore my previous apps to the new rom but it freezes at restoring some apps.
Notice:- I am using magisk 20
Thanks for the help in advance.
Hello, try to wipe a whole phone by using TWRP. Then flash your beta miui 11.0.2.0 (also as you can know beta miui can have some issue with that).
And remember for next time ... Beta is not always recommended to daily users and can have some bugs.
