So hey guys. I was on AICP Oreo build and may stable Oreo firmware and baseband...I decided that Oreo still wasn't stable enough and missed a lot features, even tried RR Oreo so I went back to RR nougat....tho I decided to skip a step and see what happened....I DID NOT FLASH NOUGAT FIRMWARE AND BASEBAND. Everything is running perfectly using nougat ROM and Oreo firmware......my question is, I am wanting to make sure I still using Oreo firmware (tho I don't see how I wouldn't be). Can someone look at their bootloader version on Oreo, baseband version and comment?
Anyone?
Well...thanks for the help

I saw the thread earlier, and from the title thought you were looking for the Nougat baseband, which I can't personally help with.
I also don't use custom ROMs. Do they user their own baseband/firmware; or are you basically just looking for the baseband number for stock OOS Oreo?
This is what the baseband is on my phone. I'm on OOS 5.0.3 firmware.
Also, you could have just flashed the relevant full image zip file to make sure you had the required firmware installed.
Custom ROMs do not install firmware. They only install system and boot image.

Sorry for being ignorant. I am new to the Mi 5 Development environment, here I see firmwares are necessary to flash custom Roms. This thing is new to me. Can anyone explain this thing briefly to me? Which firmware is necessary for certain custom roms? for example For marshmallow and Nougat. Also what in case of Miui based Roms? Thanks in advance.
For MIUI ROMs firmware flashing is not necessary as what we actually flash as firmware is actually a part of the MIUI ROMs while using other ROMs.
For other ROMs, firmware flashing is not always necessary,sometimes firmware is included in ROM zip,sometimes not.You have to read the OP and flashing instructions to know if its necessary to flash a firmware.
For an example,i have been using RR 5.8.0 unofficial for some days,i didn't have to flash the firmware zip,as it was included in the ROM.but 1 or 2 days ago,RR 5.8.1 official released,and firmware were removed from thw ROM zip to make it smaller.so if i want to flash the latest RR 5.8.1 on my phone now,I have to flash the firmware required though i didn't have to do it in the older builds.
Good luck.

You can have a look at this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/development/tool-flashable-firmware-twrp-easy-t3474898 ...very very informative.
Here some words from 33bca, the OP of that thread
<< zip includes all needed firmware files to switch between different firmware versions, since roms don't include firmware to use less space or they are not allowed to. It can also get really helpful if you want to restore a backup of an older rom which requires a different firmware. >>
Hi, I'm currently still running Oxygen 3.2.8 (Android 6.0.1) on my 64gb OP3 and refuse to update to the latest Nougat software because Xposed framework still does not have support for Android N and I still use some Xposed modules including Gravity Box and YouTube Backgammon Playback which I use extensively.
I recently bought a 128gb OP3T and plan to move my apps and data to that phone, but it is already updated to the latest version of Oxygen OS which is Nougat.
How can I roll back to an older ver of Oxygen OS so I can root it and install Xposed? Thanks.

Unlock bootloader, flash TWRP and clean flash OOS 3.X.X.
It's that simple. The first two steps you would have done anyways if you intend to root.

Thanks, does the OP3T use the same ver of TWRP and stock recovery as the regular OP3? I assume the ROMs are slightly different.

Stock roms are different yes... But aosp and other roms are unified now..
For op3t stick to official version from twrp site..
Project depreciated! Leaving here for the time being.

Here will be the firmware packages from the latest Global/China MIUI ROMs for those of you using custom ROMs that require the firmware for radios etc to work.
I will try to keep it as up-to-date as possible so every time you need to update your ROM you can grab the newest firmware here and use it to keep firmware up-to-date as well.
Installation Instructions:
I recommend using firmware from the Stable builds, but the firmware from the other ROMs should be fine too. Let us know in the comments if you see any differences between them.
For Oreo ROMs use Oreo Firmware.
For Nougat ROMs use Nougat Firmware.
Follow advice from your ROM maintainer!
(or)
1. Wipes
2. Flash Firmware
3. Flash ROM
4. Other stuff you do in recovery

Sounds great! Installing this on top of an already installed ROM is not recommended?

In theory it should be fine since it doesn't replace anything to do with /system.
In practice I'm not 100% sure as I've seen a few people mess up their installs by flashing firmware after ROM.
You can just flash firmware then dirty flash your ROM to be sure.
Kind of like if you were updating your ROM just using the zip version you already are on.

So for NisseCool's LOS15, I should grab the Oreo Alpha Firmware now? Or just keep the China Dev Nougat?

Up to you.
I'm using the dev for LOS 15 but they should all work fine.
There doesn't seem to be noticeable differences between the firmwares.
Just giving the option to those who want it
should I wipes system before I flash this firmware？

No its not necessary.
Nothing from the zip should affect the system partition.
However I recommend flashing the firmware before flashing your ROM eg with an update or dirty flash just to be 100% sure.
But many users choose to just flash the updated firmware over their ROM and it works just as well
Maybe I'm just OCD about my install proceedures
Oreo Beta Firmware coming now. Link will be up today.
Thx a lot!I fixed nfc not working in miui by flashing the latest china dev firmware.

One of the latest ones
On LineageOS I'm using the latest stable firmware.
I haven't been able to update the firmware packages for the last week as I'm away ATM but will be back soon and can resume uploading them.
You can also make the zips yourself if you download the latest ROM from miui website and use one of mine as a template of what files to remove and what to leave.
And then compare the updater script to see what lines to remove.
Its really easy I'm just uploading for people that don't want to download an entire ROM
China dev 7.11.30 :

No sorry.
You can make it yourself very easily though by downloading the full package from end.muiu.com and then using one of my firmware packages as an example of what to remove and what to leave.
Then copy the updater-script from mine to yours or edit it to be the same and flash

Ok, i will try it, thanks a lot
I'm planning to use custom ROM like LOS, but everytime i flash, the mic always not working properly, for example when recording, my voice can't be recorded, but if i tap the mic, the tapping voice is recorded..in the MIUI 9 Stable and Beta, the voice can be recorded but we have to speak very closely to the mic and the voice result also very low..and when i tried to flash back to 8.2.2.0 the mic is working normally, so do u think it's the firmware problem?

So, what's the difference between open beta and official? Like, if I flash open beta firmware/modem on RR, but decide to flash back to official firmware/modem....would their be any issues?

Haha. Even open beta is official. Bt people only call stable ones official. Official means the one provided by the oem so open beta and stable both are official as they are both provided by one plus themselves . Don't get confused by others.
When u r flashing CUSTOM ROMS LIKE rr always flash latest open bera firmwares
There is no problem if u want to go back to stock rom from a custom rom just don't forget to do a clean flash ok

If you flash oreo firmware you cant flash nougat rom until you flash nougat firmware back. You end up with error 7 in twrp.

Right, buuut...if I replace the modem within the nougat flashable zip with the modem from Oreo, it WILL flash without messing with firmware with a nougat rom
