Xiaomi Redmi 8 and Custom Recovery - Xiaomi Redmi 8 Questions & Answers

I have a Xiaomi Redmi 8 and been looking around for a Custom Recovery and it makes me really happy that there is official TWRP and some other CR
but I wonder which one is actually better OrangeFox or TWRP
also for OrangeFox it says OTA does that mean I can just install OTA updates without worrying that it's going to get bricked or something

Yeah as long as this is for sd435.Also,can you confirm if the codename of Redmi 4 released in India is Santoni since I think you've the device?
This is really confusing decision by Xioami,they abandoned prada(Redmi 4 in China).

Well,AFAIK there is not a single custom rom for santoni as of now,I'd be better off buying redmi note 4(mido).
Hello, is it possible to flash the baseband from Xiaomi Redmi 4X with band 20 (global variant?) to other Xiaomi Redmi 4X with 3MB 32GB as root with any tool to get band 20 ?
Or is it possible with "fastboot flash modem xyz" too ? But then the modem file must be existing separately ?
Not sure
Did anyone try it?
What is the difference between this one and another one by cofface?

Hello is there specific sub-thread for 4x ?
out of topic but..
why 4x santoni doesn't have sub forum here?
4x have custom recovery but not much choice of custom rom, all i find from googling only lineage 13 and mokee, no other rom like ressurection remix, aosp, etc. hopefully will be more custom rom for redmi 4x in xda and not from other link
twrp + root
I installed twrp and rooted the device with suroot.
It works fine and even seems now be more smooth and has bit more free ram.
But if I will download from MIUI later a next official ROM (stable global ZIP) and flash it with "Method 1: System Update" (from here http://en.miui.com/a-232.html), will that update method still work now ? And what will be the result ? Have I bring twrp newly on the device then or root ?
Video tutorial for rooting redmi 4/4x
Will this method work on Redmi 4 3gb 32gb model?
Yes, it works!

If you use the system update method in the page, it should work without any issues if you are using full ROM zip. But I guess it won't install Nightly builds.
After installing the full ROM image, you don't need to clear any data but you WILL LOSE ROOT ACCESS. You have to re-root after every system update.
Another thing, if you are using TWRP recovery to flash the system update, it will warn you that the system update will automatically flash stock recovery. So select the option to disable recovery flash. Otherwise, after system update you will again have MiRecovery.
If you are already using MiRecovery, then you don't need to worry about anything.
Hope I cleared your doubt.
does it need Unlock Bootloader first?
Thanks..
hlw i want to know will this method will work on redmi 4(4+64gb) indian variant thanks.
how can i root my device without pc ?

Is there a Pixel Rom for my Redmi Note 9

I'm using Redmi Note 9 (M2003J15SG) and I can't find any custom roms?
There are no custum roms .There are gsi roms available search for gsi a/b roms red mi note 9

Hi, what's the use of gsi? srry I'm new on this
Very rough said.
Stock ROM is from redmi factory.
Custom ROM is from outside the android community ROM based on you're model red mi.
Gsi ROM open source android basically all android from 8,9,10,11.
Biggest problem not a hot selling brand this phone.So custom ROM will take a long time if it ever should come out.
Gsi is not specified to this model so expect bugs,fails.Things most said volte,light sensor,VoIP.
I can't help you with what ROM to choice because I didn't change the ROM that much.
Just a little tip this year the redmi army.Is most likely rolling out android 11 and later on half way this year miui 13.

Ohhh ok thanks
I suggest you to keep on stock rom firmware only.
Root it with magisk. Flash it with twrp.
And everything is fine.

We already have it but still in alpha stage, both are working fine, choose either of these.
TWRP
&
Orangefox
For official built, you will have to wait. It will be available after the fix.

General I found The solution of the touch screen

Hi guys as we know Redmi 9t comes with tow Types of touch panels one of them is NVT-Ts which doesn't support Custom Roms, i found this kernel that support NVT-Ts and it works almost on any rom , that's the link of the kernel https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rdHdhVSWCE_8EyTkr8EOKoWTTsS94zG_/view?usp=sharing
flash it after you flash your custom rom and after that format your data and reboot and enjoy
thanks for the developer who made this possible
Hi. You test it this kernel ? Is safe to install it ? What roms do you use/ have tried ? Thx. I have the same type of screen and phone is detected as lemon not lime and i didn't get the 11 EEA rom yet even it is official released for lime in EU.
U can use miui.eu, it works good.

Hi. Can you provide a link with the rom you installed please ? Thx. For custom recovery do you need a special tipe of stable rom (a standard original rom from xiaomi but modified for custom recovery) or it is working with any stable/beta rom from xiaomifirmwareupdater.com like this: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/lime/stable/V12.5.2.0.RJQEUXM/
And other thing, i must wipe cache, davlink or data from PBRecovery before or after i install android 11 or i don't need to do that ? Now i'm on android 10 MIUI:V12.0.12.0.QJQEUXM and no OTA to 11 yet. Thx.
I forgot one thing - before installation of miui,eu, You have to first install via fastboot A11 rom.
A11 rom - https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/lime/stable/V12.5.4.0.RJQMIXM
miui.eu: https://miuipolska.pl/redmi-9t-stabilna/

Thx for links but if my phone is recognized as lemon and not lime (like in rom description) how it will flash in fastboot ? I don't want to get me some errors and possible (or sure) brick my device. That screen type ruins everything on this phone...lucky me. Thx again.
My phone is also lemon.

Question Flashing Android 13 based ROMs, how?

I'm seeing popular ROMs like EvoX and ArrowOS having official builds running on Android 13, and I'm curious how can I get them running on my Note 10 Pro, so any idea how to flash them on TWRP?

Install lIke always ???
:: download image, boot to twrp, clear relevant partitions ( see thousands threads before ), install .zip or image of rom, maybe install gapps and magisk , etc.
Go through the advertisements, but first understand whats going on , before you brick your device
Good luck !

There's one catch, you apparently need an Android 11 build of TWRP to flash Android 13 mods, due to odd issues on Android 12 TWRP builds

I think that the only person who can answer You is Yourself, by installing and testing each of the beta version of the 3 roms Android 13 existing at this moment for the Redmi Note 10 Pro.
Why ?
It’s a bit early as these 3 A13 roms are very recent and no many persons have already tested them.
I installed once Arrows 13, I find this rom very promising but I can’t use it as daily driver because I’m missing features which I have with A12 crDroid like separate volume for phone and notifications, 2 buttons navigation, advanced restart, MIUI camera, …
The download link for the second one seems to be not available for the moment.
The third one is total new (today) and the download link for the Redmi Note 10 Pro seems not to be yet loaded.
The best for You is either try by yourself or wait some time for having the advice of other users.

All depends of what you are expecting of the rom.
This morning I installed for the second time the last version of "Android 13 Project Elixir" on XDA forum :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ir-official-thirteen-aosp-05-09-2022.4489275/.
I gave my opinion about it (see and read last post of the thread Elixir).
The only point about which I will never discuss is the battery draining bacause it depends not only from the rom but also of the way you are using your smartphone and from the applications you have installed and are using.
Most, if not all, android 13 custom roms are still wip regarding the customisation, almost barebone. Miui camera might get ported to a13 once every bugs has been squished, meanwhile gcam should be a better alternative (see the dedicated thread about it). My advice: sticks to a12 until all customisation has been migrated to a13, unless you're willing to be a tester.
