Hi guys
A year and the half or even better just after I purchased my P9 I unlocked bootloader, rooted and went for custom ROM (fRomFuture - NewWorld V4) the only one available and 100% working for P9 at that time as I remember. I got this system since then and I must admit it works pretty well surprisingly without any updates. However I just received work smartphone (Moto G5) which supports dual-sim and realize this is good moment for upgrade my P9. I just took read P9 7.x/8.x ROM's flashing installation descriptions and I feel dizzy....upgrading EMUI, changing partition type from FAT to encrypted ext4..... uff... I already flashed my P9 with custom ROM but back then it seems much much easy with Android 6.
First of all how could I check my firmware version ? With NewWorld ROM I don't see this kind of info.
Second - from what I read I need to update EMUI first from 4.1 to newest ,correct ? Do I need to know my firmware version for that or upgrade could be done (on already flashed system) via Huawei official software ?
I'd like to go for [ROM][8.1][OpenKirin's RROS Oreo v6.0.0 for instance. On Moto G5 I have to install 64bit TWRP and ARM64 Gapps as well - is this the same story with Huawei ?
Make this story short - what step should I take to upgrade my unlocked,rooted P9-EVA with Android 6,TWRP and NewWorld ROM to something newer like even Android 7.x but prefer 8.x because it seems to be working much faster than 7 on my Motorola.
Thanks for help and sorry for lame questions
Flash stock firmware using dload, update to the latest firmware then flash the custom rom you want.
Hello. First I'd like to get the facts straight.. I've never updated my phone and by this I mean my A2 is running factory image of Oreo 8.1 with September 2018 securty patch.. The reason why I never updated is simply because it was running fine and so no need to update and battery life is outstanding with 9hour Sot on average usage. But now I get occasional lags in Chrome after updating apps from play store.. I saw lags in android 10 official update as well in my friend's A2. So, I want to move to custom rom to fix lags and move away from too much Google dependency.. But since this is my first time flashing a/b device.. Can anybody give me the detailed step by step process of how to flash as I don't want to ruin it and spent extra time fixing it. I get very little time outside of office.. Also, just in case I don't like it, can't I go back to stock rom version of oreo and not android 10? I'd like to thank everybody in advance who would like to help me out.. Thank you very much.. btw I'm aware of flasing, twrp and stuff as I used to flash in redmi note 3 and 7 pro and other devices but new to a/b

And i'll be honest with everything that's gone on last year, with a 2 month stint in hospital - due to having covid and then with all the bull**** with job etc.. I not 100% in thinking I can remember what to do - so thought ask first. I was going to try Official Lineage CFW but if anyone suggest anything else(happy to check) Also can someone point me to correctly updating phone, is it flash stock 10 ui 2.5 first then the CFW or can I go straight to CFW.. Sorry for such a Derp question, but I been told I can update straight from 9 but hear says " OVER FULLY STOCK ANDROID 10 FIRMWARE " so guessing that right ! and also that with no root then?

So you are running a rooted custom rom now?
Technically you should be able to install a new custom rom ... but ... best to check the rom thread of the new custom rom you want to flash.
And stick to the recommended installation method. Usually in one of the first posts of that thread.
Hello,
after two month of normal using without any experiments or flashing / rooting my Redmi Note 11 stuck in an endless bootloop similar as descriped here: Xiaomi Note 11 stuck to rebooting into recovery mode 5.0 after unlocking the screen
I was not able to do any recovery so I ended up to wipe all data and now the phone is booting normal and can be used again.
But befor I'm going to start setting up my phone again from the scratch (because Google backup did not work) I would prefer to use a custom rom without all of these ****ty MUI apps like cloud, video and pdf viewer and round about 7 billion other apps which are anoying me with endless popup messages and registration requests.
This will be my first try to install a custom rom but I already found this tutorial: [GUIDE] How To Install A Custom Rom On Redmi Note 11
First of all thanks for the work of this tutorial I think this will help me doing the first steps.
So here is the question:
Is there any working stock Android 13 custom rom for the Redmi Note 11 without any unneccessary extra stuff?
seems that crDroid could be close to what I want: [ROM][OFFICIAL][12.1-13.0] crDroidAndroid 8.x - 9.x [SPES|SPESN]
what would you suggest to me?
thanks and regards
Stefan
Hi Stefen,
Seeing as how long it has taken Xiaomi to get Android 12 to our devices via OTA, and even there it appears most have STILL not recieved A12 via ota and have had to force the update...
It's unlikely we'll see Android 13 / A13 anytime soon.... I reckon we won't see stock Android 13 for at least another year or more...
Not to say we won't get it, as our devices are supposedly supported to A13 and Miui 14.... but based on timescales, we're a long way off yet...
Cheers, Lister
ah ok, thanks for the clarification. I thought Android 13 is possible yet.
So I guess the right question is: is there a clean stock Android 12 for the phone?
Hi Stefan,
No probs, depends on you're build of current official stock rom. The easiest way to find out, is download the Miui Downloader from PlayStore.
Then head to this page, and find the appropriate rom for your current rom.
This Windows app, will also help you find what you need....
Thanks, Lister
I think the xiaomi.eu roms are debloated but it's still miui

Xiaomi.eu performs better than stock MIUI but worse than AOSP custom ROMs. Based on my experience with 13.0,5, it took almost a minute to boot whereas with Evo X 13 and PE+13, it boots half a minute
Can you use stock camera with AOSP roms?

not yet, there develops and mods, but not completly functional
I have a realme 8 Pro that I was going to update when I read at the end of February that various models of the brand had various problems with the update to realme UI 4. So I am still not updating for fear of running out of phone.
Since then I still haven't updated it and I'm still on Android 12, because I don't know if these problems have been solved.
Can you tell me if they are already resolved?
Thanks in advance.
