Hello again Optimumpro,
I recently acquired a used Oneplus 6 -- but it came with OOS 11 Beta 3 already installed !
(
1 ) If the OOS 11 bootloader will not work with TWRP --
HOW can I revert back to the OOS 10 bootloader?
a. Run the
Oneplus Rollback from 11-to-10 known as: 22.J.54_OTA_054_all_2105112236_downgrade_fc69a428ccee4497.zip ??

b. Or run
MsmDownloadToolV4.0 International Version OxygenOS5.1.5.rar ??
Will that overwrite the OOS 11 bootloader ?

Will future Jaguar ROMs require the OOS 11 firmware you posted above in October (which excludes the problematic OOS 11 bootloader)?
a. Correct me if I am wrong, but the only reason to install OOS 11 firmware, is if someone wants to install newer ROMs based on OOS 11?
b. If so -- will we need to flash it in TWRP each time after flashing a full Jaguar ROM ?

(
3. ) Did you get a Oneplus 8 because it will continue to get official Oneplus updates & new versions of Android -- until April 2023 ?
Because this year was EOL for OxygenOS/ColorOS updates for
OP6/T -- is it possible to continue supporting Android 10 ?
