Hi bosr,
Which Rom should I use for the xiaomitool? The recovery rom or the fastboot rom (which I need anyway for the boot.img)?

Not sure, what you are looking for, but boot.img is in the fastboot rom:

One question before I start:
Is this the right order:?
1. Unlock Bootloader
2. Downgrade the phone to the last version with a fastboot Rom published (AntiRollBack version is the same!) using MiFlashTool
3. copy boot.img to phone
4. run magisk on phone and patch boot.img
5. copy patched boot.img to PC and rename to boot.img
6. Flash empty vbmeta.img
7. flash patched boot.img
8. Reboot
9. Success
How to I upgrade to a higher software version afterwards?
1. Flash new ROM
and then again from step 3 from above or is there an easier way?

both methods did'nt worked, it stucks on fastboot login itself even after rebooting devices it reboots to fastboot state only..You wont be able to find rosemary's twrps yet... But you can root this model unlocking bootloader and flashing a modified boot.img from magisk APK, you can follow this instructions to do that; (you'll need the redmi note 10 s original rom firmware to extract the boot img and you can get it from here: https://c.mi.com/es/miuidownload/detail?device=1900397)
That’s all, now your phone is rooted. You can check for root access using any root checker app. And once you have root access on your Redmi Note 10, you can enjoy all the apps and features that require root access. As you know Xiaomi phones show ads on some system apps that you can disable with root access. You can use different Xposed Modules to customize your phone. Also, you can install Xposed Framework on your phone to use modules.
First, extract the boot.img file from Redmi Note 10 firmware. You can use 7Zip or WinRAR. Now install the Magisk Manager app on your phone. Open the Magisk Manager app and click on the Install.![]()
In the next step choose ‘Select and Patch a File’ from the option.![]()
Browse and select the boot.img file, and it will start patching the boot image. The output file will be stored in the download folder with the name magisk_patched.img. Copy the patched boot image file to your computer in folder C:\adb. Also, rename the patched file to boot.img. Reboot your Redmi Note 10 to Fastboot mode and connect it to your computer. In the C:\adb folder (or platform-tools folder) press Shift + Right click on an empty area and select ‘Open Command window here’ or ‘Open PowerShell window here.’![]()
You can check if the device is connected or not by entering the below command that should return some device id.
fastboot devices
Now enter the below command to flash Magisk and root Redmi Note 10.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
After flashing the patched boot image. reboot your device to the system. Install Magisk Manager if it’s not already installed. Complete the in-app instructions, and the device will automatically reboot into the system.
Or if your system has an a/b partition you'll have to type this on your command window:
fastboot flash boot_a patched_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b patched_boot.img
Hi bosr,Regarding AOD:
Did you try to check, under Developer options option MIUI optimization? If it is on the display with AoD stays permanently on.
Rest of your questions cannot help as on my phone all what I need works, banking apps included.
Nonetheless do not think that it is neccessary to reset to factory settings.
If it worked and it stopped to work after your experiments, you should be able to revert it![]()
Did you flash the empty vbmeta.img before the patched boot.img?both methods did'nt worked, it stucks on fastboot login itself even after rebooting devices it reboots to fastboot state only..
AFAIK there is neither TWRP nor custom ROM for RN 10S available yet.please make twrp or orange fox or any type of custom recovery for my redmi note 10s so that i install custom rom and custom kernal
target reported max download size of 134217728 bytes
sending 'vbmeta_a' (4 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.008s]
writing 'vbmeta_a'...
OKAY [ 0.001s]

OTA is not so easy. Read here in this thread or directly How to install OTA updates on rooted android devices using MagiskJust for clarification:
I successfully rooted my Redmi Note 10s as described here.
This device has A/B partition scheme. I flashed it this way:
1. fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
2. fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23000_JBKu8.img
Automatically the active partition (a in my case) was used, for example:
Code:target reported max download size of 134217728 bytes sending 'vbmeta_a' (4 KB)... OKAY [ 0.008s] writing 'vbmeta_a'... OKAY [ 0.001s] finished. total time: 0.009s
So am I'm right, that I also have to flash boot_b and vbmeta_b? If I don't do it, root will be lost at the next OTA, right?
Hi GildroY,I was able to successfully get root access using the additional step mentioned by @bosr (Thanks a lot for that). However post that I literally bricked my device trying to debloat the device by using debloater. Post removing few of the mi bloatware apps, when I rebooted and the device kept on going into default mi recovery (even with power + vol-). I was not able to access the fastboot mode at all, no matter what I do.
Then I did the ultimate blunder ... reset the device from mi recovery. Post that I lost adb privileges as well. Besides the phone would still not boot - MIUI logo flashed with sound, then a white setup screen for a sec and again reboot.
Searching online could not fetch anything. Then I tried moving the phone to mi assistance mode from mi recovery (which is nothing but sideload mode), connect to PC and used 'adb sideload'.
Voila, the phone was detected, from sideload mode, I was able to reboot to fastboot mode, and then flash the stock rom using miflashtool. Whole 4 hours of tussle.
Sharing here, just in case someone else, gets into the same situation.
!! BADLY WAITING FOR A CLEAN ROM FOR THIS DEVICE .... <Prayers>!!
I would take it from the other side. What do you want to debloat?Hi GildroY,
which software did you debloat successfully?
I'm also looking for some debloating my note10s.
Based on your experience do not want to try around and brick my device (at least not before a full TRWP backup is possible).

Hi bosr,
Which Rom should I use for the xiaomitool? The recovery rom or the fastboot rom (which I need anyway for the boot.img)?
