Hello everyone
I was a long time iOS user and now switched to a Pixel Phone with CalyxOS. At the beginning I had difficulties to start but the Android community surprised me... many developers create excellent FOSS and are ready with helpful tools and solutions.
I crossed the way to the XDA forum a few times, but that I finally registered now is due to the GCam port of @cstark27 (by the way, works great thanks ).
I am mainly user and more on the newby side and joined the forum to:
- Ask questions,
- to exchange experiences,
- To get news and information about my device and ROM.
- To honor what developers and the community do.
I wish everyone a great day and soon a nice weekend

Hello Silvan and welcome to XDA!
Nice you moved to Android!, Youll find loads of knowledge and a nice community.
Enjoy your stay!
I'm a newbie entering into the world of XDA. I have heard about XDA many times but never sort of showed a special interest towards this but suddenly i thought of installing a custom rom in my device redmi k20 pro. This is where this forum came into my interests and helped me a lot.
Now, I'm very much into this freedom in the Android, I'm trying out every new rom in my device all thanks to the developers and all the members in this forum and so I will make sure that I follow all the forum rules, be friendly with everyone and help all to my limits.
Thankyou!

You came to the right place, welcome!
Some of the admins can please create a individual forum for the second Xiaomi phone in 11T's line?
I have buy the simple Xiaomi 11T version with the Dimensity 1200 5G SOC and when i come to forum.xda-developers.com I was surprised to not find a dedicated forum for this device.

Seconded.
There's been multiple requests for the Xiaomi 11T in the forum-request thread.
There's also no Telegram groups (at least English speaking ones) and it's really difficult to find any information on the device in general. All searches lead to Xiaomi 11T Pro.
I wonder if the device is too new or people just hate the Mediatek chipset so much that they don't even want to talk about it?
Anyone with insight, would sure love to hear your thoughts on this topic.
Me personally, I'm just gonna get rid of the thing if there's no other OS than MIUI in development. As stock, it's like a worse version of my old Redmi Note 10 Pro.
I don't have any problems with the device itself, it's ok overall, but more info, apps to share, functions that we can enable, disable, etc. A place where we can exchange info about this device in this configuration.
I can understand the doubts of some users, even developers about Mediatek chipset, no problems with that, you don't like it - don't buy or use it, but don't ban it from such a big forum.
The ROM itself can be very easy customized to fit your needs, in less than a weak of ownership I modify it without any problems, i removed all the unnecessary apps from it, removed all the adds, customized the look with the use of Nova Launcher third party app, all is great, it works flawless, very smooth experience, I don't regret that I keept the difference of money between 11T and 11T PRO.
Why not use this thread?
I got my 11T one week ago. Bought it cheap on black friday. Have not decided if I should keep it or not. It is a rather good (but boring) phone. Screen, performance, battery life and the main camera seems good. Haptics is good but not as strong as on Mi 11 and Mi 10T Pro. The phone feels similar to Poco F3 in many ways.
@flipp0 Because it use other SOC from Mediatek, not a Qualcom... this is why we need a dedicated forum.
It's not a good idea to mix the two devices, when developers will start making custom ROM's available it's easy for inexperienced users to use the wrong one or to make demands on the wrong one.
Also, developers will be more involved if they will find on xda-developers a forum dedicated to post their work.

I think you mean a dedicated "11T forum". I agree with you, it should be a specific forum for 11T.
My proposal is to use this thread for 11T if XDA will not create a specific forum for 11T.
@flipp0 I have edited, sorry for the confusion I'm not a native English speaker.

It's still a bad idea. They're two completely different devices.

Hey guys! About to buy a Xiaomi 11T for a bargain and I am looking through XDA to check for development made fo it. I can't find a section for the phone, and this is the closest I see.
Does this section include both the 11T and the 11T Pro? Or just the latter?
Thanks

Few or no development for media Tek soc.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/closed-why-not-a-dedicated-xiaomi-11t-forum.4371001/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...1t-subforum-not-pro-mediatek-version.4405077/
But Why?
Xiaomi has started equipping models with soc mediatek for the Indian market.
To have the source code for the development you have to pay a license to Mediatek for each model and then pay teams of developers, which would have increased the price of these phones in India and would not have been profitable.
(he was also banned in 2014 from selling xiaomi to soc mediatek in India).
Wow, shame.... Thanks for the help!
