General question about Lineage OS and AOSP ROM

Hello, I'm new here and I think about to install android 9 or 10 on my Lenovo P2(a42).
So I think original Android is not really possible, especially when you want to have Android 10, right?
Anyway, I came to Lineage OS and AOSP ROM then. So my question is now, can I expect that the user interface is like original Android (9,10)? I've never used Lineage or this AOSP ROM. The only reason why I think about to "upgrade" is more customization-possibilities (like in Android 9 or 10). But i have no interest in unstable Alpha stuff. So I think Android 9 based stuff would be the best option for me.
So do you think Lineage OS based on Android 9 (or even Android 9 itselfe) is possible to use (stable) on Lenovo P2 and is the userinterface the same as in Android 9 ? And are the Lenovo P2 exclusiv-functions still available? Like hide navigation-bar, use fingerprint for moving back and the battery-saving-mode with the physical button (these 3 should really still be possible because I use them alot). And do I have to expect higher Battery-Usage on Android 9 based Lineage OS ?
Would be cool, if i can get some answeres here
Edit: Ah i didn't see there is a Lenovo P2 forum here

man, just use lineage os android 9. It will be good. Its defacto solution and based AOSP. Also you should stop using stock rom if you are using.

GSI for 11 - Vendor vs Firmware (Redmi Note 7 Lavender)

Hello,
So I'm about to try my luck with a GSI 11 image, however, the tutorial on phhusson's experimentation repo is a bit outdated (Android 9).
I'm coming from a custom Android-10-based ROM.
So I'm wondering two things:
1. Do I need to flash vendor or firmware right before flashing the new GSI-11 image? (Yes, before this step I would have wiped everything etc.)? And if yes, which one, will vendor suffice, or do I need firmware?
2. Does the firmware/vendor IMD needs to be for Android-11? Because I see Xiaomi doesn't have an official one for 11, yet there are already custom ROMs for 11, so I assume flashing an Android-10 vendor/firmware is ok?
Thanks for your time

Hello,
If you want to try Android 11 then you can use the tutorial on phh github, and vendor can be any version (9, 10, 11), even basic from MIUI. Just not all of them are built for Android 11, which means that there will be some bugs (overlays, for example the camera may not work or rounded corners will not etc ...) When I installed Android 11, I found a well patched vendor here:

It's an Android 11 port but the vendor is android 10 so if you're not happy you can put Android 10 instead of Android 11
(If you try install magisk you must use phh version instead normal version, link: https://mega.nz/file/ViwRjKhK#9RIkCzPyRy_mOhHAnT_W9fuB1nv2iuxUwNqgZmANAm4) is Canary Debug version and you can easy update form Magisk XDA forum (just write in to google " Magisk Canary Debug apk")
Good luck in the installation
EDIT: you can use any version of miui firmware but after installing Android, dont update firmware because you didnt boot. (you can install newer firmware but after that you must wipe data and reflash boot/kernel and magisk.)

Thank you.
Did you only use the vendor from that particular ROM, or did you install that ROM itself. Currently debating if I wanna install GSI or a "proper" ROM. In any case I'm trying to de-google this phone (softly not hardcore), so GSI is interesting since I can install a de-googled version and then MicroG on top of it.

Non one ui based rom needed.

Hi friends, hope u are good. Today i am here to put forth my request to the developers to make a custom stable rom which is not one ui based for galaxy a50 (a505f). We are tired of these one ui roms now please stop making newer version of these rom and make a gsi rom but fully stable with no bugs. Thank you.

There are sadly only gsi available ( use Lineage os gsi or RR OS )

Question Any Android 12 can be installed on Redmi K40?

Original Android 12 or custom ROM ?

Android 12 has not been released yet. However you can use the beta/developer preview GSIs flashed through fastboot. Apparently the system UI crashes so I'd wait until a proper release

Not beta Android 12 available for Poco F3 yet. https://www.mi.com/global/service/support/androidsbeta.html
GSIS Rom is buggy as @Robert314 said.

Android 12 ROM

I have the RMX1992 with default Android 11. It's working well. I understand that realme will not provide Android 12.
What custom ROMs are available that provides Android 12?
Are there any advantages in Android 12?
