Another important reason could be the need to unbrick the device. Bricking happens when some attempt to customize the smartphone goes wrong. This means if you are rooting your device(or flashing custom ROM/recovery) and incidentally end up soft bricking the device, then re-flashing the stock ROM will take your device back to its functional state. However, in this case, we will restore the Realme 5 Pro using a fastboot image. So, we have put up the fastboot file and the OTA for both the Chinese and Indian variants of the Realme 5 Pro. There is a neat guide as well which should help you out in accomplishing this.
We must credit the fastboot, OTA files and the whole stock ROM restoring process to XDA developer acervenky. Great job by him.
What is the importance of stock ROM.?
Stock ROM is the inbuilt operating system that the OEM has packed in the device in the box when you buy it. Stock ROM is stable, hence free from bugs. You can flash it to solve the issues of bricking where your device gets stuck in a certain state. Also, during unrooting the device, this comes handy. Again if you simply want to upgrade to a newer stock ROM or downgrade to a previous official ROM, then stock ROM does the trick for you.
