Help me before bricking my phone

Now i have redmi note 5 global version 4GB/64GB running Miui 10.2 , I will unlock bootloader now and then install a custom rom. I have read alot about anti rollback and still cannot understand it and am afraid to brick my phone. My questions are :
What is the suitable twrp to install after unlocking bootloader?
Will i face rollback problems?
What after imstalling twrp?
Xan i choose any custom rom in threads to try it then try flashimg another rom?
Please help me
First request the bootloader unlock because sometime it can take upto a month (720 hours) for new accounts. After unlock install the Redwolf Twrp recovery because it's the best and than install any custom rom but don't ever go back to any MIUI version below 9.5.19 otherwise you will endup bricking your phone for downgrading from ARB4 to ARB3. Custom roms works fine no issues with ARB

You can go back to any MIUI version it's ok as long as you install ARB4 versions of MIUI 9 or 10 and they start from 9.5.19+ so never ever go for any version below that.
So i just unlock bootloader, install redwolf twrp, then install any custom rom?
You mean that rollback problems happen only when going back to miui rom? I mean if i changed from a custom rom to another, will i have any rollback problems?
Second thing, how to root?

Rollback will not apply to custom ROMs but avoid flash any arb3 firmware file
Flash magisk to gain root access

laos and aosp theres no antirollback only in miui base roms. like miui official.. miui pro.. read the threads cause there are roms that are base on miui but dont touch ARB.. example is masik..
for root flash magisk or in orangefox recovery there magisk already incorporated in twrp..
So should I install orangefox TWRP or redwolf TWRP or what?
Please orangefox or redwolf?

Redwolf it's awesome!
Ok but i read that orangefox has more extras!
Last question, what is the best rom to try? I mean a rom with little bugs ?

ultimate / universal root / twrp installation guide?

Hi everyone
Sorry I am confused; there does not seem to be an ultimate universal root / twrp installation guide for the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite phone (my son's phone) in 2019.
No offense intended but all these various posts on the topic just help to confuse people!
I managed to unlock the bootloader but can anybody please tell me what is the easiest / user-friendliest way to install twrp (which version?) and root the phone so that I may proceed with flashing LineageOS afterwards to get rid of all the bloatware.?
what about these partitions A & B?
Thanks a lot in advance
https://github.com/tkchn/daisyinstall/blob/master/README.md
This is the guide youre looking for
@barumbads: Thank YOU!
[EDIT] er... this is for flashing a custom rom!
I did some extra research out of XDA
[Guide] How to root Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite
and
How To Root Mi A2 / A2 Lite (Magisk) and Install TWRP Recovery
but again... confusing! which one should I go for?
(I already tried the later one and created another post following an issue with it!)

It depends on what you want to do.
Root doesnt need TWRP, just Magisk. There's a guide on here.
Flashing custom ROMs needs TWRP. Each custom ROM has specific instructions.
There's no one-size-fits-all solution for this phone.

Hi @a1291762 & thanks.
This is what I am saying it is confusing; I have been thru a few phones (samsungs, LGs, lately Xiaomi...)
and the process was first install twrp then root and then you could flash roms
I know when you flash LineageOS, you get root included in dev options so from your explanations I will look how to flash LineageOS but currently I'm struggling installing twrp as you have seen in my other post

My last phone didn't have A/B or encryption or use Magisk for rooting... So for me everything about this phone was new and different.
I started with stock (android one means I didn't immediately want a custom ROM). Then added Magisk. I added TWRP after edxposed caused me bootloops (magisk manager CLI can run from TWRP). I haven't installed a custom ROM yet but I've got a custom splash and bootanim.

OPPO A12 Root

Hey, I've been trying to root my OPPO A12 for the past few days. I tried almost every method I found on different websites, but it seems not possible to root this phone. I even tried to unlock bootloader and flash TWRP (I found out later that there's no custom recovery compatible with this device) but I can't load into fastboot mode. Pls tell me if rooting CPH2083 is possible or not, if yes I'd appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.
Please root my oppo a12

I did'nt tried because there is no profit of doing that as there is no custom rom or custom recovery for it you can only install magisk modules and voiding your warranty . I would port a custom recovery and then we can install a gsi im in the process of doing it

Rooting means gaining full acess on your phone and you do that for a specific reason and most of the reason is installing custom rom and if there is no custom rom then there is no profit.
And magisk is an app by which you can root your phone and install modules like viper4android which increases sound quality and other modules like that .
I would recommend not to root the phone. You can root after there is a custom recovery or rom

oppo a12 bootloader can be unlocked with the hydra tool. A new update comes from the hydra tool which claims that they can unlock the bootloader of oppo a12. You can see this by this latest update
Has anyone tried the hydra tool on an oppo device? I am looking into it. I hate my oppo because of the missing bootloader.
Sorry. XDA messed up. I did not want to post twice.

If you want unlock and install custom rom based on A12 firmware you don't need to donwgrade (just unlock bootloader ed install whatevwr you want)
you need to start from EDL if you want to install roms that require A11 framwwork
Thank you, so basically since my bootloader is unlocked I can follow instructions and just flash rom via fastboot? Color os doesn't have an option in recovery to install anything.

If you want to install lineage or other roms based on A12, just follow instructions
roms based on A11 tipically require A11.2.10.10 to flash it you should restart via EDL (MSM tool)
I've downloaded the msm tool and see nothing that it is catching
Solved, I had to find the right drivers, thanks for all the help guys

Question Absolute Beginner - Hate the new operating system, want to change it, questions

Background
I've just switched from a P30 Pro to a Xiaomi 13 Pro, I've never rooted a phone in my life.
I loathe the operating system, it doesn't let me open links in the applications that I want to link them in (I'm trying to open Reddit links in an external app and it will not work no matter what I do, just goes to Chrome or the default Reddit app), the game program doesn't let me swipe the taskbar down to view messages, the notch hiding feature doesn't work.
I don't know how much of this is down to MIUI and how much is down to Android updates but it's terrible. This kind of restriction is exactly what I was hoping to avoid. There hasn't been a single thing I've seen so far that represents and improvement.
Specs
CPU - Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform Octa-core Max 3.19GHz
Android version - 13 TKQ1.220905.001
MIUI version - MIUI Global 14.0.22, also listed is 14.0.22.0(TMBEUXM)
Model - 2210132G
Network is Vodafone
Any more specs needed to answer any of these let me know.
Questions
1. Is it possible to root it?
2. If I root this thing is there a way to install the OS from my previous phone, or some other OS that can easily be customised?
3. If it is possible to root it, how do I do it? I assume there's some guide.
4. If I attempt to root it, is it easy to reset it if I **** it up? I had a horrible experience with bricking a PSP trying to root that about 15 years ago and I'm loathe to repeat it.
