I have moto g5s plus updated to oreo 8.1.
Can anyone tell me which roms are based on oreo bootloader?
As i installed lineageOS 15 and 16.
In OS15, fingerprint didnt work inspite of flashing fpa.zip.
In OS16, phone went into boot overloop.
All pie roms are oreo bl based... N oreo roms are nought bl based...
Considering a Mi11 Ultra buy, can someone tell me what the actual benefit is of flashing EU ROM? Is it a security thing, software compatibility, less bugs, etc? ie. Is it worth it or even useful to flash EU ROM these days?

Sorry if this is a stupid newbie question but EU ROM and Global are not the same, right?
When you buy from Xiaomi, you either get CN ROM or Global ROM. If I am understanding this correctly, is Global ROM the version without Chinese bloatware sold outside of China and EU ROM is a custom ROM developed independently based on Global that can be flashed onto either Global or China ROM?
In other words, is Global version out of the box like the vanilla version that EU ROM builds on top of?
So for chinese region = CHINA ROM
for EU region = EEA ROM
for India = INDIA ROM
for all other regions = GLOBAL ROM
these are official releases by Xiaomi for devices for particular regions.
And then there is Xiaomi.eu rom which is a custom ROM (not by xiaomi but by a developer from community). This Xiaomi.eu rom is based on China ROM but is made available for any mi 11 ultra user irrespective of where they live.
If you have a phone which came stock with CHINESE ROM you cannot flash EEA/INDIA/GLOBAL ROM without EDL authorization (its a development access for xiaomi service centers to flash ROMS). So as a normal user you cannot YET. But you can flash xiaomi.eu rom once you unlock the bootloader.
Link to forum thread of xiaomi.eu rom:
MIUI 12.0 - MIUI 12.0/12.1/12.2/12.5 STABLE RELEASE
STABLE RELEASE RULES WHEN POSTING 1. If a ROM is not published DONT ASK ABOUT ITS ETA 2. If a ROM is not published DONT ASK why! 3. If a ROM is available, download it and use it 4. If a ROM has bugs, post the bug to the bug section if the BUG is not already listed 5. If you use any form of...

Save about $500 if that matters to you and get the 12/512 version instead of overpaying for 12/256
Xiaomi is supposed to be cheap lol

I tried Global and EEA on my CN phone, and had no issues with flashing them.

All I know is that it worked for me, but then so many others brick their phones just flashing EU, so it's not clear what's going on.

maybe it's cause they flashed a custom rom.. the xiaomi.eu is not exactly an official rom.
but if you flashed the EEA or IN or GLOBAL rom, it's fine?
Can you lock back the BL after you flash EEA or GLOBAL star rom?
No idea, I just wanted to see if CA worked. It didn't.

Trying to relock would brick your device
I got the mi 11 ultra from tradingshenzen with the chinese rom , unlocked the bootloader and tried to flash the EEA Rom. The device bricked and I needed the help from an EDl guy . He flashed the global ROM on it.
Can I now flash the EEA or the xiaomi.eu rom by myself on the device ?

The EU rom is basically just a debloated , optimised Chinese ROM but it flashed easily for me

I only use the stable ones
The EU 12.5.3 is the latest
I don't have time to flash roms every night lol
and nothing canhappen when I flash the EU 12.5.3 on the global 12.0.1.0 ?
I have LineageOS installed on my Redmi Note 10 5G and randomly the keyboard will go through this loop of:
Appearing for .25s-2.5s
Disappearing for 3-10s
and it is really irritating. I haven't found a fix for this but I can temporarily fix it by restarting. Please help me find a permanent fix!
EDIT: Not sure if I should re-flash the ROM to something other than LineageOS (e.g. Pixel Experience) and that'll fix it.
I ended up reflashing to the latest version of Treble Pixel Experience, hopefully this has fixed it. Until it disappears again, consider this the fix.
whats ur opinion in LineageOS or Pixel Experiance ? I would try it

pe is just fully stock android from "Google Pixel's" with some tweaks (just like all of the roms and gsis too) to boot on other devices. No customization whatsoever, so if you wish to have a stock android experience with nothing special then pe is the best
Lineage os is balanced to stock experience with some customizations and a few more gapps included, but from some sources says that their open source apps give you more privacy, and the rom gives you access to set more privacy like "Trust", "Privacy guard", "Protected Apps" and scrambling PIN in lock screen
so go to pixel experience if you just want a full stock android experience, or lineage os for more privacy and some customizations
