New noob user in Spain - Introductions

Hi
I just landed here because I have just switched from a Samsung A51 to a Redmi Note 10 Pro and all I want to do is change the background. It seems to be impossible without rooting the phone and then running a script (like here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/custom-splash-screen-for-redmi-note-10-pro.4277659/). I have no idea how to do either (yet). Using my own photo - which Samsung lets you do by just an upload to the phone - is not supported on the Redmi, apparently. Also, I can only use photos that someone else has written a script for. Shame on Xiaomi.
I have some serious searching and reading to do here!

Custom ROM, anybody willing to sponsor a developer?

Reading this forum it seems most of us desire a custom ROM for the Note 10 Lite but developers don't seem to be interested.
This is of course their prerogative, but if there is enough support perhaps we can persuade somebody to work on it for us since our group skill set seems to be limited to rooting (which is still a great achievement).
I, for one, would be happy to contribute funds towards the development of a custom ROM along the lines of LineageOS (or otherwise) currently available for the Note 10 and Note 10+.
Obviously the reason many of us chose this phone was due to the lower price and so we can't be expected to pay top dollar individually. But if there is enough interest from enough people in this group maybe our combined funds could persuade a developer to work on a custom ROM for us.
1. Anybody else willing to contribute?
2. Anybody know a developer that way inclined?
3. Ideas on a ballpark figure?

Ahh right I didn't realise you were working on it! I wondered what that screenshot was about in the other thread...
Thanks for working on this. I'm sure that you will receive donations from the many grateful users here on this forum. Godspeed.
A friend of mine that is a developer is working on things. Screen shot was me testing what he has so far.

Sure, well it'll be your friend that receives the donations then! Maybe he'll buy you a beer...
Keep us in the loop with the development.
Cheers!
Just to add on, I'd be another one of those people who'd be willing to drop a donation when it comes out!
Cheers, mate

Twrp

Hi any news around the world about a new ROM?
Thinking about changing for another phone more customisable.
The developer I was in contact with has moved on to another device. Not sure if he will be doing anything. He is also very busy with family and work. Wish I had more info. I did speak with him recently but it was about another device..sorry.

So, let me clarify stuff for you guys.
It won't be possible (for now) to port anything to note10 lite since samsung added vbmeta blocks on almost all partitions in n10l.
That being said, it's impossible to have twrp or any custom rom until samsung removes those blocks.
Keep waiting, maybe someday that will be possible, but it's not for now.
DEX or HDMI support, is the most important feature for a DEVELOPER TO CREATE FOR NOTE 10LITE!​Hardware wise is capable, but SOFTWARE is not permitting this feature. I hope that a DEVELOPER will be so kind to HELP on that!!!
And propably a valid twrp version to flash it!​

Galaxy m21s

Will there be a forum for the Galaxy m21s? I don't know in how many countries it was released, but I never saw it being talked about in XDA.

Not sure if this helps, but here ya go.
Hi Guys. I need some help with my M21S.
I have two cellphones. A M21S with magisk root and Xiaomi Mi A3 without root.
I bought a sansung tv and I was trying to use the app called "Smart Things" to connect the TV to the smartphone.
The problem is: Xiaomi Mi A3 see the app on play store but M21S dont.
Investigating a little bit about the problem, I saw a lot of users suggesting a lot of thing like clear cache, register my google account again, update my playstore and/or my android.... But nothing works.
Here is the deal: i dont let my android update, at all. I dont like updates. They just slows the cellphone and consume a lot of battery.
After a while, comparing the issue with other issues i Had with Aptoide and APKpure for the last years I realized that the problem is: some apps updates are modifiing by its developers to not work on old versions of android and I realy think this is the problem here.
So, in order to solve the problem I have to update my android. But I Reeeeeeally dont want to do that.
So the question is: is there any way of bypass the version cheking sistem of apps? Or there is a way of solving this problem without updating my android version?
Android Version: 11
One UI Core version: 3.1
Model: galax M21s (SM-F415F)
Thaks a lot.

Welcome to XDA
Sure in here you will find ways to improve your device!
May I ask why ?
I am totally happy with my mediatek redmi note 9
In part it may be on me not using it properly. You say your model is "Mediatek", is this the same as my phone? I'm also having difficulty rooting my phone, It would seem you have to get past MIUI, so there is that. Yes, a bit lost at the moment

Note 9 pro uses snapdragon 720G. Note 9 uses mediatek.
I'm very happy happy with my my note 9 pro. And for the moment I don't see the need of change rom. The other day it updated to miui 12, based on android 11, and goes well.
Oh good to know re: snapdragon and mediatek. That's terrific you guys are liking your appliances right out of the box. I'd love to hear from others who are not so pleased and what they've done. I keep wanting to pull down from the top to see my controls and of course they don't show up. Is this me or is it MIUI ergonomics? Thank you for your responses. I'll see what I can do to change things.
What is the problem with rooting?
oh hi 171, are you asking me? Or just putting this out there? Nothing is wrong with rooting IMO, although I find it as difficult as collecting hens teeth, because there is so much information and it's hard to keep it straight, and it varies sometimes between builds, and between phones.

Hi

Hello to All.
I used to lurk this site almost a decade ago when OnePlus had just launched their first phone. Installed my first ROM and was very happy when it went off without a hitch. Then I had to start using ios devices as that was what was issued from work. Recently got an android, and wanted to try my hand at is installing a roms and debloating them. The site has changed a lot, a lot of the old apps are no longer available.
Regards to the site admins, staff and mod team for keeping the site going for so long.
Where do you post if you have a question for multiple devices ? I want to know if the stock google dialer and messages app can be removed if I replace them with a 3rd party dialer, contacts and messaging app in the following devices
Redmi Note 10 Pro
Xiaomi 11 NE 5G
Motorola G60
Samsung M53
Cheers

Welcome back to XDA, you might post your question in general or gral. questions.

Question LineageOS on Chinese model with color OS

Hello all,
I plan to buy the 10 Pro with colorOS .
I found this how to:
How to Install LineageOS ROM on OnePlus 10 Pro
In this comprehensive tutorial, we will show you the detailed steps to install the LineageOS ROM onto your OnePlus 10 Pro device.
www.droidwin.com
My question(s) are:
1. Is this work also with the coloros version?
2. The official site of lineageos do current not support this device. For get updates, is it better to wait? Or can this version fetching updates if coming?
Thank you for help
As there is no recovery tool. I recommend to stay on color os or oxygen os...
Remember there is a lot of bricked devices just waiting for a msm tool to work.
Thank you .. This I need.
I wait. Its better
That's just a GSI, it's quite simple to install but you'll be missing a bunch of features.
It's extremely simple to install, use the guide here on XDA to do so.
Recovery still works and fastboot enhances does too.
Unless you're a fool you won't brick your device.
I've installed every available GSI and they all have issues, you can use them for the most part but the issues will remain and alas will never be fixed.
Your plan to buy any OnePlus device is a flawed one. It's not a great device, only a device with great potential, potential that's never going to be realised.
Does anyone have any idea when lineageos will be officially available for the 10 Pro?

There are no plans..
The issue is that sources from OnePlus have not been fully released iirc.
Furthermore there is no tool to recover a bricked device so if something goes wrong during testing then we're stuck in limbo.
This leaves us in a situation where we have a very capable device totally blocked by the totally greedy mungbeans that are Oppo / OnePlus.
My advice, if you've just bought your device then return it, if it's still quite new but you can't return it then sell it and get any of the pixel devices..
The current situation will not change and if it does it'll be a challenge from start to finish for the poor hapless soul who dares to start flashing their deuce with a custom ROM.
It could prove very expensive at worse or hit and miss at best, both extremely time extensive and worrying at the same time.
Wish I had better news mate, it's a sad time.
Thank you for the detailed explanation. Yes, I understand all that. Fortunately I inform myself before I buy a device ... I don't have it yet and probably won't buy it.
My 7 Pro is getting on in years. It still works perfectly... But I still have Android 10 (lineageos) on it.

I haven't been getting updates for a long time. All the important accesses (bank etc) are on the device. I can't afford a dist upgrade failure.
I think I will buy a 9 Pro. I like oneplus. I am very happy with it.
9 pro is a shout.. definitely have a look at the pixel 7..
7 pro was a great phone, I miss my 8 pro, it just worked and had that crazy photocrom camera...
Motorola edge ultra or the next nothing phone could both be a fair punt as well.
Oh, I am not a native English speaker. "9 pro is a shout"?? In my language, that can mean that the 9 Pro is great or that it sucks. Lol. What do you mean is a shout
Thanx
