Which Xiaomi phone is currently best for rooting and custom roms? - General Questions and Answers

Hey, Which Xiaomi phone Rs10000 ($150) is currently best for rooting and custom roms? I'm talking ease for unlocking the bootloader, rooting and availability of custom roms. Or perhaps it's not Xiaomi phones that are most hackable at the moment?​

IMHO and experience, avoid the Redmi Note 9 S/Pro/etc (aka Curtana/Joyeuse/Excalibur/etc).
No LineageOS official support, and the unofficial ones come and go every few months and all have bugs.
The Redmi Note 7 aka lavender, OTOH, has pretty decent hardware and has official LineageOS. Rooting is working great with Magisk, haven't tried other ROMs but I think they would work pretty well too.

So, is there a possibility VoLTE support will be added to mi4i with the update?
Don't expect anything from useless Xiaomi.
I'd suggest don't buy Xiaomi product in future.

I have always bought mi / redmi phones due to availability of good specs in lower price range. AFA MIUI is concerned. I had wiped Redmi 1S , Redmi Note 4G and Redmi4i without booting in MIUI for a single time.
Unboxed. flash and boot recovery. Flash stable CM.
Lucky patcher, Titamium and Xposed bundle had made these phones bearable. and Most importantly the developers who have made God tier. custom ROMs.

Rooting MIUI on Redmi 6?

Hi everybody!
My Redmi 6 w/ China ROM is coming in a few weeks - I have a few questions because I'm so excited!
My understanding is that even the official TWRP has many bugs, but will it still allow me to root MIUI 10? Seems that Xiaomi.eu is even having issues with the Redmi 6 and I can't even install that. So I'm only left with Rooting MIUI 10.
I have scoured the internet but found no sources. Can TWRP at least flash Magisk to MIUI official Stable? Surely there is aw ay to root MIUI
You can try this recovery.
It has magisk built into it.
So you can flash it from there.

Thank you.

Question Redmi note 11E Pro Global Rom query

Hi all,
Aliexpress sells Redmi Note 11E Pro's unlocked with the global ROM. This apparently removes the NFC ability for the phone.
A question for any users that have bought this phone:
1.Were you able to change to a custom ROM (eg. Arrow OS) and get NFC to work?
2. How did you do this? Did you have to install the China ROM first and then install the Arrow OS Custom ROM?
Having read many of the questions about bricked drives, it's just got me worried.
I'm coming from a Redmi Note 4X - I know but it is such a trooper that only after 5 years it it starting to get sluggish for me so just trying to get a handle on whether anything has changed from when I last flashed a new phone.
Thank you for any and all input to the above.
1. sure
2. No need to install CN ROM. Proceed with the installation of the ROM you want right away.
You can just use the xiaomi.eu ROM and make sure you download the VEUX rom and not the VEUXG as that is only for global devices but if you want something other than MIUI you can do it right away
Pixel experience on 11e pro 5g not working NFC, how working?

Question Custom rom

Any custom rom available for Nord ce 2 5g?
Unfortunately, OnePlus act like **** for the smartphone.. that's why no ROM is created
Seems to me outside of xiaomi there's not too many manufacturers where custom roms are available.
