Have anyone try this before ? I wonder since MIUI 5 is base from 4.4.4 but our bootloader are upgraded 41.18 ( currently installed CM12.1)

looking for a ROM and I just wanted to make sure of one thing..... Is the Android version a requirement or will ROM change version when flashed? For example I have 4.2.2 if i flash ROM for 5.1 . Will ROM not work or will my version be changed to 5.1. If it does change to 5.1 is going back to 4.2.2 as simple as flashing a 4.2.2 ROM?
Well im on latest custom rom n7 port but i want to dowmgrade to 5.1.1 to test something..
Is there any way to do it ?
yeah, you might if you flash a 5.1.1 custom rom
You need custom bootloader and modem..but cant find any..
I have XsteStoLite Rom (6.0.1) installed over stock 6.0.1 and I want to upgrade to a Nougat custom ROM. However, my device does not have the stock 7.0 firmware out yet (if it will ever get released). Do I need to flash a stock 7.0 firmware from another country to serve as base ROM (kernel, other stuff) or can I flash Nougat custom ROMs on top of stock 6.0.1? Thanks.
No, Marshmallow and Nougat uses the same bootloader so you dont have to update ota

If b380 required you cannot flash it on b350.. It will cause some issues..
You can unroot. Flash stock recovery and update to b381..
And then flash twrp and flash custom rom..
no need to install b380 update,just install twrp recovery and install roms.i have tested rros,lineage os and aosp oreo rom. They all work fine

Thank you everyone.. are there any major bugs in 7.1.2 RR that i have to worry about..??

No you dont have to flash files all over again...
Just restore stock backup if you do t like custom roms..
Rommco05 said:
Flashing backup can help only for restore phone because if you use twrp backup your will not work camera, bluetooth etc. For restore stock you need to flash full firmware (PV) over twrp. But make backup anyway just for case
