Added new rom !

What's the current status on this, what's the most stable, complete (i.e. everything works) and featureful ROM for Redmi 8?
I'm at the dawn of my phone's custrom age, and you could save me some pain if you'd tell me your opinion. What's the best one for daily use, if you like fancy things and hate things not working?

unfortunately for us the only way to know is to try them all out since theyre all still new (@skittels15 and @IAmDeadlylxrd ). download and usage stats do say hundreds, but many of users arent here. itd be much better if they were all encouraged to join the XDA and share their experiences but yeah, what else can we do?
im currently on crdroid 07-05 and honestly i find it stable enough for daily usage (i dont play games on droids). apart from 100% 'my bads' i havent noticed anything major, @mrjoker18 has tried a ton of them though.
and honestly with the current ROM devs, id suggest to not try GSIs

To answer my own question: I'm on the SakuraOS official ROM for the past few days, and it is literally flawless. Everything works down to the tiniest stuffs, no glitches despite my serious tweaking and testing, and it's super smooth, pretty and customizable. SafetyNet works too.
Frankly, it feels like a proper manufacturer OS. Better than the original MIUI.
I also tried DotOS before it for a week, which was nice, but had a few glitches. GPS didn't work, couldn't record video with the included camera app, and I had some random reboot and freezes. I also prefer SakuraOS's look TBH.

Аll @IAmDeadlylxrd's and my roms tested and not have critical bugs and recommended for daily use. Don't panic about bugs. And all roms tested by maintainers and some users from our Telegram-communities. All roms is tested before release to public.
About DotOS: this rom have bugged sourcecode. All device-specified bugs was fixed long time ago in device tree. All roms have only rom's source-specified bugs.

what talking about ?

Roms for Xiaomi RN9?

I've seen there are many custom roms for RN9s and RN9 Pro. Why does our RN9 doesn't have? Will there be roms for us someday? Just bought the phone and thought there were roms I can install

I think its up to xiaomi, because ROM's devolopers usually waits for the official kernel source to be uploaded by the manufacturer. This reason might explain why there are plenty of Redmi Note 9 Pro/S ROMs (already with kernel source uploaded) but not even a fully functional TWRP recovery for Redmi Note 9. We might need to wait for xiaomi official kernel source for RN9 to start seeing functional stable ROMS running out.

Where does xiaomi release the official kernel source code (which website?)

Here, at official Xiaomi Github channel:
https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource

Maybe we should wait, RN9 still a new device. And there just an Unofficial TWRP, maybe after the official TWRP got released we will got some custom ROM.

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

Question I'm Lost...

I bought the xiaomi redmi note 5g, and I am looking for custom recovery and they are all for the mojito version ... I have camellian. I don't know if you can put the TWRP of the mojito in the camellian ... Also I looked for official ROMs to update the mobile, none of them match the name that is in the version that I have installed:
MIUIGlobal12.0.3StableRKSEOUR
Model: M1203K196
Sorry if there is already a topic on this, but I am completely lost.
Thanks for the help.
Greetings!

I also recently got this handset as a bargain back up device. Only cost me €70 unlocked.
I believe there aren't any roms specific to this handset yet, as the kernel sources haven't been released yet. There are GSI roms, but I haven't looked into them too much, as I wanted a reliable daily driver.

no custom rom rom, only gsi. the twrp have toch screen not working. needs otg or twrp manager for pc. but for gsi installation fastboot is suggested. with stock recovery. the future of xiaomi modding are the gsi. also the new redmi note 11 serie come out with mtk processor.. so i'm quite sue that treble project will be the new frontier for xioni devices

Question Will this device ever get a Custom rom ? ( Not GSI, A proper custom rom )

Bought this device at its launch and since then I am waiting for some developer to build a custom ROM for it. Multiple GSI roms available and even the Xiaomi eu also available. But I want to flash some custom ROMs like pixel experience or evolution x . The main problem with GSI and xiaomi eu rom are that they need a computer to get updated. DEVELOPERS HELP !

Until there is a custom recovery that works with Android 12, a pc will be needed.
For AOSP roms the question has already been asked several times.

but why hasn't a custom recovery been released for 11T Pro for Android 12? (I own this phone) TWRP has already been released for phones more recent than this one. Plus, vili kernel source is already available on github.

Just for information which xiaomi android 12 newer than 11t pro have twrp?

TWRP is not a requirement for ROMs.
It also works without. But there is nobody who cooks anything.
I hope that the price in India will fall quickly. Because there are some good people in India who know how to cook.

There should be Android 11 custom rom development, there is basically no custom rom support except GSI for xiaomi now (recently released xiaomi devices)

I meant like ZIP-flashable Custom ROMs that don't need a computer, like LineageOS, dotOS etc.

I think there is only Paranoid Android that is not gsi atm, but it still does require pc to flash due to the fact that even official twrp doesn't support a12 encryption yet.
So yeah basically we also need to wait for twrp dev to make some progress too.

Blame xiaomi for not updating kernel source to android 12.

It's already been 8 months since the GitHub repo for Xiaomi kernel sources was updated.
Any way to downgrade to MIUI 12? There could be also A11 Development not necessarily A12.
Honestly if GSI is available for A12 I'll take it.
If there really is no custom ROM support for this phone, I just need to root it. Any way to root on MIUI 13? (Stock, Global)

Pull the boot.img from your current rom, patch it using Magisk, Use that patched Boot.img to boot off, go to Magisk and direct install it. You know... Just the usual
P.S. There are forums that explain this better but this forum isn't the place to explain how to root a phone.

Question Flashing GSIs : Safe ?

I have recently bought this phone and would like to know if someone tried flashing GSIs and if it is stable safe performant etc
Could be a good choice until custom roms appear

A GSI is typically safe because it does not contain any device-specific code. You still need to wipe user data when going from one system image to another. A couple of the most stable and continuously updated GSI projects are Pixel Experience, and the LineageOS GSIs by AndyYan. You can find those here.

I'm not familiar with Xiaomi devices, so no.
Assuming they follow the AOSP model (ability to flash partitions via fastboot) you would simply use ADB to flash /system with the GSI.
