i have answered your query in far more detail in your other thread, but to reiterate for those who didnt read that post, if youre on anything higher than the U2 bootloader, then youre stuck with 9 unless youre rooted and can find an Oreo ROM to flash in TWRP that supports your bootloader. Not all ROMs support all bootloaders

Look at first post !!! An read !!
Thanks. Worked for me. Although, I didn't flash the SR SuperSU and didn't wipe dalvik nor cache as that didn't work for me. Just flashed magisk and was rooted through the magisk manager.

For you to down grade you could only if example.
Build xxu4
Build xxu4.
Could not down grade to xxu3.
This whole update is going to take a long time you are better waiting.
Personally mine most likely never see update I'm going to sell it.

This is the only one you can download grade to but I'm not 100% sure.
You have skipped flashing new bootloader and see if you could bootup without it.

Question It's almost 2023, how is the custom Android 12 ROM landscape nowadays?

Earlier this year I bought myself a Note 10 Pro and I tried a custom Android 12 ROM. I found out that after installing Android 12, it would relock either the recovery or the bootloader. I forgot what exactly, but TWRP would not work anymore after installing 12. Getting Viper4Android or Magisk on it after flashing a 12 ROM was a headache. It was stuck somehow but I managed to get OrangeFox on it and then wiped everything, which allowed me reinstall Android 11. I'm still using 11 and am quite happy with it.
I wonder if anything has changed. I am looking to get a Note 12 Pro and I wonder what your experiences are with it in regards to the use of custom Android 12 ROMs, especially Viper4Android, which I can't do without. A quick search says TWRP is still working on 12 support.. and that is from a news post back in June..

Are you on Android 13? Because you could try A14 GSI only with preview or A13 as I know.
Android 12 miss some files

Forget about load latest custom or update GSI on Android 11 so.
If you would like to try, use DSU Sideloader
EDIT: As you say, better to have a custom ROM
