Offical rom for OP5

I have one question !
I see OxygenOS 4.5.8 and H2OS for OP5.Are they the same ?

H2O2 aka Hydrogen is chinese version ROM
Oxygen is global version ROM
Oxygen is recommended unless you are in china.
Hydrogen do not have gapps natively.
and you can switch between both ROM easily.
I bought my OP5 from china and i have Oxygen ROM on it.

I am a Chinese

Zte A2017 chinese version and official oreo

Hi there,
I have an Axon 7 A2017 Chinese version (ROM 125gb RAM 4gb).
I'm currently using the AOKP Official on it.
However, I've recently heard that the Chinese version has supposedly received the Official release of Oreo Stock (Stable not beta). Is that true? or is it just rumour?
If the answer is that it is actually true, how should I proceed with it if I want to install that Stable 8.0 Stock.
Is Rom like that [ROM][A2017G/U][V3.0.0B01_2 - 8.0.0][stock] SL!M based on the beta or stable. Also it specify A2017G/U. Is it compatible with the A2017 China version?
Thank you in advance

I answered you under ROM section.
In short : all beta, pretty stable but for you to judge.
V3.0.0B01 can be rooted, chinese modem can be flashed.
V3.0.0B10 (latest imo) can be EDL flashed. Stable as i tested it myself but without root.

Q: Can I switch from Beta to Stable with Anti-Rollback?

When I'm running 8.9.6 china beta, can I flash the last stable release via Mi Flash Tool?
8.9.6 i newer than V9 last stable (I think 9.6.10).

MIUI version doesn't matter, what matters is the anti-rollback version of the rom you trying to install. If the anti-rollback version is equal to or greater than your current anti-rollback version, then it’s safe to flash.

So if the bootloader is locked, then stock recovery should stop the process from bricking our phones, in case the anti rollback version is lower, is that correct?

MiUI 12.5 why?

Ive seen in every custom ROMs requirement for citrus is that its got miui 12.5 eu installed.
I want to know why before i go blindly flashing "things".
I currently am on miui 12.0.7 global.do i have to flash miui 12.5eu before i can flash other roms?

It's android 11 base.

ok so if i were to flash a 10x based custom rom i dont have to flash eu?? if not then if i flash another 1 thats 11x based i have to...??

Usually, the (official) MIUI Fastboot/TGZ ROMs flash more 'deeply' than their Recovery/ROMs
Maybe you could achieve by flashing recovery/zip ROM plus a firmware (but not sure if MIUI firmwares come as recovery/ZIP installations)
When you are already going to do that, you could look on Xiaomi.eu for the latest stable MIUI 11 ROM for davinci (it's like a debloated official MIUI)
Xiaomi.eu ROM would either be for flashing directly by Fastboot (bat script, not for MiFlash) or even the recovery type for TWRP. Their ROMs (even when recovery types) are usually self-sufficient, hence usable for downgrading, un-bricking in some cases, etc
