Question Relock Xiaomi 12 Lite bootloader after flashing an EEA ROM? - Xiaomi 12

My Xiaomi 12 Lite came with an EEA ROM (SLIEUXM) installed which had bloatware from Orange, so I want to do a clean flash of a newer EEA ROM (TLIEUXM) to get rid of those useless apps. My question is if I can safely lock the bootloader again after installing. AFAIK I can as long as I don't install custom/chinese ROMs, but idk if being a phone from Orange makes any difference.

An Orange rom always ends with SLIEUOR.
Edit:
SLIEUXM:
S=android 12/LI=device code/EU=EEA rom(for Europe)/XM=Carrier unlocked.
So not an Orange rom but an EEA (for Europe)..
Maybe Orange has added some apps but which must be uninstallable or deactivated since it is an addition to an EEA rom, unlike an OR rom where the apps can be part of the system.
Use Miflash to flash a fastboot rom (TGZ file).(delete your data)
Preferred a Global rom that does not include the limitations required by the EU.
You can lock the bootloader with any rom version, except CN version.
Better than stock roms:https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-14-stable-release.67685/

Need opinion regarding switching from EU ROM and Stock ROM on POCO X2

It's been a year or 2 that I haven't flashed a ROM. I had heard about this ARB (Anti Rollback) stuff back then..... Now the main concern for me is that I wanna use the EU ROM for my Poco X2 (pheonixin), but I wanna know that, If I choose to switch to stock using MiFlash, will I be able to go on a version, that's below the EU ROM's? I don't really know if Flashing a higher EU ROM will increment my "anti" variable (currently I'm on Stock 12.0.1 and anti=2). I wanna flash 12.0.4 EU ROM on POCO x2. I'll list some questions here, it would be great if you could answer some...... Thanks...
1. I'm on 12.0.1 (rolled back, but have Fastboot ROM) Stock now. If I flash 12.0.4 EU using twrp and after somedays, can I switch back to 12.0.1 Stock using MiFlash?
2. Will the EU ROM increase my anti variable? Or is it just the Stock ROM that increases the anti variable?
3. If I somehow brick my phone (with ARB), how much will the service center charge me? (India) (Still have warranty though)
That's it for now.... again...... Thank You for helping me out

i flashed the eu build 12.0.4 and reflashed back to 11.0.11.0 with ease via mi flash tool. I don't think you would face any problem either..

I see..... But the thing is, FastBoot ROM for 12.0.1 haven't been released yet..... So if I change my mind to go for stock, I won't be able to go. Also, can I now switch back to 11.0.11 with MiFlash (Currently on 12.0.1 Stock)? 12.0.1 is just buggy..... Colors are messed up in notification panel....
Well, does this MiFlash give error on ARB if I'm trying to go to a lower build? or does it flash and brick the phone and then tell me that I cannot flash older ROMs ????

yes you will have to stay with custom roms untill and unless there is a fastboot rom release. it will be in a month or so.. other than that you can try the eu build it's very stable fir daily use.. and believe me after using the eu build you won't be coming back to the Indian build.

Question Flashing Miui.eu

I want to try miui.eu and was wondering if I still need to update to the latest miui. I'm still using miui 12.0.3 global version.

as I had to wait for my bootloader to unlock, I updated my pocox3 to lastest build at that time; 12.5.2 global
then after unlocking, flashed 12.5.2 eu rom, had no issues so far, currently updated to 12.5.5 thru dirty flashing. you have to wait for like 3-5mins for first initial boot of eu rom after flash (if you're waiting more than 10mins, its a bootloop).
having some experience with flashing custom rom on xiaomi devices..... i found out it's always best to be on latest firmware before switching roms, else there might be slight chance you experience failed flashes/bootloop problems, etc... xiaomi itself generally recommends getting to latest global rom, then doing anything *custom*.

If there is another version than CN
No need for Twrp, which will only flash a recovery rom.
Install rom:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flash-tool-guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
Does not relock the bootloader(brick).
With a stock rom the play store will not be certified.

The recovery rom is used for an update or troubleshooting and only contains the imgs needed to start the phone, while the fastboot rom contains all the imgs, hence the different size.
But I advise you to install a Xiaomi Eu rom which will have the play store certified without root and more functions than the stocks.
If you flash a stock ROM, you will need to root and use Magisk hide to have the play store certified and use banking apps for example.

It's mainly thanks to Xiaomi Eu ROMs because stocks are really limited.
