How often do you get updates?

I am new to Mi 6 and I am thinking to root. But how frequent are the updates? I want to know so that I can decide whether to root now or not. And can you get updates after root?
One extra question is that you use odin for samsung phones to flash stock firmware, what you use for mi 6?
Thanks

Depends on ROM you are using. If it's DEV rom - updates are every week (thursday/friday). If it's global - updates are irregular, made in long intervals of time.
I, personally, am using xiaomi.eu dev rom (MIUI 9.1 v. 7.11.16), and I have rooted Mi6. After update you are losing root and you'll need to root again. So, answering your question - you can update safely even if you have root, but you will need to root again.
When I was switching from stock global to xiaomi.eu rom, I simply unlocked bootloader (if you have agreement from Xiaomi), flashed twrp, then flashed rom from zip. After that you have OTA updates so it's simple and easy.
If you want stock rom - I suggest using MiFlash tool.

Hey thanks man. So even with root and twrp I will get OTA updates? I am on global rom

Sure, you have to unlock the bootloader of your phone before you can install TWRP and root.
Then you can install whatever you want... MIUI Weekly ROMs, Stable ROMs, custom ROMs .. etc.

Thanks a lot man.

Please suggest a stable ROM.

Hello mates,
I'm a student in China. Currently I own this Note 5 pro and using it as my primary device. I just need your little help in finding the most stable custom rom for this. Please suggest a good custom kernal too if possible.
Thanks.

Try some for yourself ?
Also, do you prefer miui, aosp, caf, lineage?
I recommend using Havoc os or Aosip/Aosip Derpfest

I want to switch back to MIUI global but i'm facing tiny problem. The google verification is stopping me from logging in to my device because google services are banned here and i cant use VPN without opening device.
Edit: Got it. I removed my sim and used hotspot from my friend to login to mi id and then skipped wifi part, And it worked.

They dropped so early, the bricks issues were solved without almost any risk following the proper steps and all the anti-brick files are there. I didn't find nothing based on Android 10 but only in Pie, this is the recovery to use for https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-5OlIttlKKI82_AD3q6WFaI0J34pfbDe/view and this is the ROM https://mega.nz/file/9BIiQQzL#YKRjCr5tQCb6LcKluKpVl2BsQaZ2e6jD2W-IoN-afhE
I don't know if some of them is the same version but through this tool https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/ you'll found the Xiaomi.eu v11.0.2.0 stable and the Xiaomi.eu developer 9.11.21
I'm currently using the Indonesian v12.0.2.0, rooted, debloated unnecessary apps and is smooth so far, I used Xiaomi.eu by years but I don't miss it at all.

ok so basically there isnt any other rom based on android 10 i needed to ask one more thing can i flash global stable or china beta in my indian variant because the indian variant lacks nfc and a slight change so will the global rom effect the device or is it safe?

A guy here is claiming to have a Miui Pro ROM based on Android 10 https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/xiaomi-eu-hmnote8pro-mtk-begonia-support.53542/post-522711 and asking to Google this is the result https://forum.miuipro.info/viewtopic.php?t=4432&start=200 I didn't checked my self so is a downgrade (not interested).
As per flashing a firmware for other variant you can flash the global (also the EEA included), the Indonesian too, I don't recommend the China version BUT as far as I know the indian version came without NFC capabilities to hardware level and i found someone more that say the same https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8-pro/how-to/guide-redmi-note-8-pro-megathread-t4056527

How to install a new ROM?

Hello everyone, I'm new here in the forum. I have a Redmi Note 8, two years in use, and it no longer works well.
I was thinking of installing a new ROM, preferably one clean and fast, and if it possible the camera would be better then it would be the best.
Which rom would you recommend me to install? And is there an installation guide?
Thank you.

Someone?
