Questions about encryption - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

Hey guys I have some questions regarding the encryption of our device. I know that to get rid of it I need to format data.
The only thing I lose then are my apps and settings right?
Is there a way to encrypt my device again or is encryption lost forever?
I've read somewhere that MIUI needs encryption to work. Is this true?
If yes also for other MIUI based roms like Masik and Xiaomi.EU?
Thank you for your help!

Just flash MIUI stock ROM to encrypt your device..

You don't need encryption for miui.eu or masik roms..

[Q] Is it safe to downgrade from android lollipop to PA?

Hi everyone,
As an android user without a lot of experience regarding flashing custom roms, i'd like to be sure that i won't mess my device up.
I'd like to downgrade my Nexus 5 woth stock rooted 5.0.1 to PA 4.4.4. Do i need to do something special besides wiping my device completely?
Thanks in advance and sorry if my English isn't good, i'm a native Dutch speaker...

Should i be worried?

I am currently on anti 3 is it safe to flash any custom rom?I probably wont go back to miui stock again unless im trying to sell my phone.So is it safe to flash firmware provided by custom rom developers or will they change my anti value to 4?
Your only worry is flashing Miui roms with ARB4 than going back to one with ARB3. AOSP/LOS custom roms not an issue. Even MIUI roms ARB3 or 4 not an issue IF you flash a firmware-less ROM, like the ones here:

All about ARB: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/how-to/index-everything-anti-roll-t3816219
p.s. pls be more specific in title description, its too general.

AOSP or LAOS doesnt affect ARB.. wether they are MM ICS N or PIE.
only in MIUI rom it affects . so if you in ARB3. with miflash just flash last ARB3 9.5.17.0 fast boot rom and decide to leave bootloader unlocked or relock it with miflash theres option in bottom.. to clean all or clean all lock (relock bootloader)

[Q] Is it necessary to update firmware in Custom ROM?

Hello all, i wanted to ask, do i need to update my Firmware if im on Custom ROM? Currently im on Pixel Experience, i've read it somewhere that upgrading the firmware can help to fix some of the bugs, and right now i got some bugs with powet management (sometimes device lock itself). I've tried all other pie custom rom and all has this issue, except when i go back to MIUI 10.0.2.0 which is the latest miui rom i use before using custom rom, the bug is not there..
If the answer is yes, can someone tell me where i can get the firmware and how update it? Sorry i kinda newb about this, any help will be appreciated, thank you.

I have seen way more ppl who were successful in flashing the xiaomi eu custom rom than those who had soft breaks. hard breaks were so few. mostly because they didn't do everything in the right way. locked bootloader.. etc
I hope ppl here try to compare between the two and whether the official stock rom is as stable and good as the custom one.
I was gonna make a posting asking the same.

Soft and hard bricks were a result of trying to upgrade/change device firmware using mi flash. Unlocking bootloader shouldn't result in a soft brick. Then flashing a ROM is easy.
I think that all problems caused because there is not yet a stable twrp
