Hi I'm new to this flashing stuff , earlier I tried and flashed some roms , now I'm on poco but I can't understand what is this firmware and vendor flashing thing ? I'm on pixel experience and I want to try a Rom and in the thread the Dev said to flash firmware and vendor but no links to download them ! Can anyone help me please ?
as @dalyer replied here
You're using the term firmware wrong.
Stock MIUI comprises several bits.
E.g. recovery, kernel, vendor, firmware, os proper etc
Custom ROMs usually use twrp as the recovery and comprise kernel and OS proper but still need the xiaomi vendor and firmware.
Many recent custom ROMs now bundle their own version of the vendor.
But they still require the firmware which provides access to the low level hardware - e.g. modems, radio interface layer RIL etc.

this is the vendor+firmare collection by Akhil
https://mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/
9.6.27-9.0 is the most popular one!
before July2019, all custom roms were Vendor dependent! but now like Pixel, all roms have their own vendor but still need firmware from the above link to be flashed saperately
1. flash firmware in twrp
2. Flash new rom (lets say CR DROID / or AOSIP etc_)
3. flash GAPPS (pixel has gapps included but other roms don't have ! (gapps.org)
4. flash kernel (optional) (i use Franco kernel)
5. flash DFE (disable force encryption treble) - if you don't wana get locked out while trying different rom!
6. flash Magisk 19.4
7. Reboot!

First flash new vendor mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/ latest atm is 9.4.25 i think. You should ofcourse clean wipe before doing the vendor. After flashing the vendor the rom should no longer give error 7
Thanks bro i will try

Personally i don't play pubg but some of the people in telegram group do so support is in the chat group if needed some seem to change kernel to gain some performance but i think it performs good enough unless you have touch issues that some fts users have
I would not recommend flashing miui through twrp as many have reported that it bricks the device or maybe they are just doing something wrong
Twrp is best for custom roms
Use mi flasher for flashing miui

You don't have to flash any vendor zip if you're going to flash MIUI 10. If you wish to flash MIUI 10 for example from en.miui.com the global MIUI 10 then you can just flash the MIUI zip following magisk if you wish to have root then just reboot. You will have to flash the vendor zip if you wish to flash custom rom as custom rom don't have vendor firmware in it. Flash vendor first then the custom rom zip following with gapps and mod optional.
And yeah, if you flash custom rom and then flash MIUI back you might get region locked where you cant change the region, but I've solved that by flashing cust.img from global image zip using fastboot, this is because the cust partition isn't installed properly. It's the best to flash using Mi Flash, but it will encrypt you device. Do it on your own risk, im just simply sharing from my experience and im not responsible if your device change to iOS.

Yes you can flash any Miui Rom via TWRP Download The Flashble Zip Not the Fastboot One.
But When You will flash Stock MiUi 10 Rom Via TWRP You will Loose All Of Your Data.
You Need to Flash DFE After Flashing Stock One.
If You want To Flash Custom Rom
Flash Vendor
Flash Rom and Gapps
If You Want To Root Flash Magisk.
And Then Any Custom Kernel.
Reboot to System.

There is something called personal preference.
Just like you prefer MIUI some others prefer custom ROMs

Why are these custom ROMs not compatible with Oreo Firmware??
Edit: I am planning to compile a ROM for the first time. All I have ever done is to compile recovery(For Redmi 5A) where they are compatible with Oreo firmware(just like other recoveries).

Nobody has worked on the oreo sources yet so...
@sunnyraj84348 might be working on it, I don't know, I'm just assuming. Maybe he's focusing on Android 10 ROMs more than Oreo kernel.

Good luck with your project ?
[ i'm noob ] Does orange fox recovery working properly on miui 11 ? Unfortunately,i was update my riva to miui 11,succed to unlock bootloader but not with twrp,when i was flash twrp via fastboot,twrp just show up red screen then dim to black screen & only vibrate when touched. I was forgot to add command delete recovery from fastboot,before flashing twrp. Please help,any suggest to proper twrp at stock miui 11 global stable ? Sorry for bed english.
Not work properly when downgrade from MIUI 11 Oreo,now i experience messed up with stock miui rom,try to reverse back with flash full recovery rom from twrp,succed to flash,but when boot into setup wizard,error message appear,eg; "miui daemon has stopped,under that pop up,again error pop up "google service framework has stopped" > "xiaomi service framework has stopped" > "setting has stopped" & bla...bla..bla...! I can't pass setting wizzard,can't continue to normal screen. Then i flash pixel xperience rom 9.0,flawlessly boot until setting wizard done,run smoothly without error. Usually i like to change between custom then stock rom from twrp when i was bored with 1 rom. But now i'm stuck on pixel experience 9.0 (caf) & no twrp working properly when want to flash stock miui oreo.
There are no Android 10 Kernel threads that I could find, so i want to know if there are any kernels for Android 10 (Currently using the Bliss ROM) that have the Wireguard kernel module ?

Try this
Elindir kernel
https://github.com/androbada525/Eli...4/Elindir-v4-60Hz-kenzo-22032020-05.47.08.zip
Note:
Never flash custom kernel over another custom kernel.
Always dirty flash the current rom zip first .
before flashing this kernel. Dirty flash ur current rom zip To restore stock kernel.
Then flash this kernel and wipe cachedalvik.
Thank you! Will try next week (tried the v4 Elindir with no success but did it over another custom kernel, so need to try again over stock ROMs) since before i was trying different kernels i did a nandroid backup, flashed a kernel, then restored the nandroid backup. After restoring a nandroid backup i got a bootloop and had to return to an Android 9 backup., and i am not in the mood to set up my phone again this weekend. Your way (dirty flashing of rom to get old kernel back) sounds much faster heh.
BTW: Is the nandroid backup not working a specific ROM issue (Bliss) or does it happen with all Android 10 ROMS ? I have the latest 3.3.1 official TWRP.

Stay on android 9 . 10 roms got issues with flashing procedure.
To flash Most of the 10 roms u need to strictly follow
Wipe all, format data, reboot to recovery again , install rom and gapps. Only then 10 will boot.
Even before restoring nandroid u need to do format data command.
They say its happens coz of broken installation script on 10.
Android 9 flashing instruction is very simple.
Factory reset
Install rom and gapps
Reboot.
Now encryption on 10 is fixed in latest havoc, syberia.
I m waiting for bliss to fix it.

Or you can just backup the existing boot.img and reflash if needed? No? Also there's this twrp flashable module by AnggaSync which cleans the boot.img for flashing a kernel.
Hi all, at the moment I have the RR custom rom with my OP7Tpro rooted.
How to update the ROM without losing the root permissions?
How to flash a new kernel without breaking everything? (I was trying to figure out what's the best between arter97 and blu_spark)
How to do both things in a row? first the new rom and then the kernel or viceversa?
Thanks in advance
1) https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/cnejw1/how_to_apply_ota_updates_on_your_op77_pro_and/ ah sorry you have RR i dont know im on OOS
2) FK kernel manager ( there you can backup you kernel or flash a new one), but arter97 is for OOS and blu_spark i dont know but i think it is the same
3) rom then kernel

(1) Update by following the update instructions on the RR ROM 1st post - then patch the "boot.img" using Magisk --> then use computer to "fastboot flash boot [your Magisk patched boot].img".
(2) RR ROM has own (lineage-based? kernel) - OP doesn't recommend custom kernels as might break some features (arter97 kernel on RR ROM breaks in-screen FP function for e.g).
(3) Usually advised to flash custom ROM then kernel.
Hey guys, I have a few questions regarding the recovery, any help is appreciated.
1>Which Recovery did you flash?
2>Can you dirty flash roms(to update the ROM from one ver. to another) in it?(Because i read that the data must be cleared after flashing any rom)
3>Which ROM and recovery are you on?
4>Are there any special methods you need to follow to flash?
Thanks in advance :good:

1. OrangeFox Alpha build (note the description "Alpha" - meaning it is still at a pre-release stage)
2. You must format data if changing ROMs
3. I have tried 6 Android 11 ROMs (all of them have one issue or the other), and 10 Android 10 ROMs. I will probably settle for EvoX or Corvus (Android 10, both by dungphp)
4. No. Just select ROM zip and flash, and then format data

Idk. I guess it depends on the ROM, and on what has happened between the release of the old version and the new version. If the new release of the ROM doesn't involve dramatic changes to the trees, then, perhaps formatting will not be required. You should follow the recommendations of the ROM's developer.
By the way, I said nothing about wiping data. I referred to formatting data - which is a completely different thing.

I started with the Russian twrp by wszx150 but have also used pbrp, twrp by mauronofrio (most likely to become official twrp for curtana), and I'm now using Orange Fox Alpha (admittedly for its good looks). Every version has its own strengths and weaknesses so it really depends on what you want to do.
For instance, most (or all) TWRP versions cannot decrypt data partition after you change ROMs hence format data is mandatory before you switch (from encrypted) roms.
AFAIK only lineage twrp supports adb sideload,
Pbrp, lwtrp, and the aforementioned twrp by wszx150 are basically same in terms of functionality.
Most work well for backup and restore...
Mtp file transfer doesn't work in Orange Fox (i can overlook that as it is in Alpha stage).
What I'm saying is don't try to get your mind fixed on just one. Such a Swiss Army knife doesn't exist (yet) for RN9 pro.
