Hello guys,
I have just bought a Redmi Note 5 with MIUI 9.5.13.0(OEIMIFA). I would like to flash a custom rom over it. Is there a good tutorial to unlocking bootloader, flashing TWRP and then, a custom rom?
Also, is it advisable to upgrade to MIUI 10 before flashing a custom rom?
Thanks a lot in advance
no need to update to miui10 for unlocking and flashing any custom rom

if you want to install lineageOS then don't use formatDATA option in TWRP
please read it carefully, if you have any doubt then ask for help in desired custom rom threads

No offense but, it is not that hard of a procedure to do without a personal assistant. First you will have to unlock your device's bootloader, then flash custom twrp recovery and using the recovery you can flash anything you want. These are the steps very concisely. For each step you will have to do some research. Don't worry. You will find a plethora of really analytical step-by-step guides for everything, from unlocking bootloader to each rom you want to flash.

Hello, i m on a redmi note 5 with bootloader unlock ans with 9.5.19 version. My question is which rom custom Can i install without risking the brick. For example Can i install resurection remix ? And if it s ok what else i have to install ? Twrp magisk rom and gapps? In which order? Sorry for my Bad english, and thank you for answering me.
You can install any custom rom, including RR.
As for bricking, as long as you DON'T install any roms containing firmware version under 9.5.19 stable or 8.7.6 beta, you're gonna be fine.
You need TWRP (or RedWolf or OrangeFox), Magisk is for root and gapps is a must in any rom except Pixel Experience ones and MIUI (i guess?).
If you're new to this, go to this guide and follow from step C.
Tkank you very much. IS it absolutely necessary to Root the phone to install a custom rom? In what the Root is it useful ?

You only need to unlock the bootloader to install custom roms. Root is optional, tho is recommended. Most useful apps and features will require root. But if you're not into customizing that much, you don't need root.
Hello everyone,
I have a redmi 5A (riva) running miui 11.0.2.0 based on "oreo" and i want to install Xiiaomi.eu rom on it.so my question is should i first flash noughat rom on it and then flash xiaomi.eu or can i directly install xiaom.eu rom on it?

There are threads here with custom recoveries for Lisa - please take a look and find/read.
Hint, SHRP or Fox - but they work fine with A11 (MIUI 12.5)
There is no custom recovery that works properly with A11 (hence with MIUI 13 as on your screenshot).
This is generally a known situation - you can go to TWRP.me and find what they say about support for A12 (all other custom recoveries take essentials from TWRP and mainly repack to different UI, add some UI features and so)
To unbrick, flash the stock recovery (hopefully, you will not need to use MiFlash to flash the whole stock firmware)
Generally be careful, do not install custom recovery, ROM, etc for Renoir to Lisa. Phones are 'similar' but they have different chipsets

If u can guide me with links of threads that would be nice of u
So basically there is no way i can get a custom recovery for my situation?
And im unbricked so everything is alright now(also rooted)
Its strange that there is no custome recovery for my specifications
