on my last post I wrote device is a redmi 9c. Turns out it’s a redmi 10c and the custom ROM I wanted to install https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-13-unofficial-lineageos-20-0-unified-for-redmi-9a-9c-10a-blossom.4609367/ won’t work.
Anyhow, to unlock the device the official way I have to identify to their services through a phone line, not internet, and purchase a sim card, which I’m not going to do to experiment with this device.
I have no use for the stock software in the device and I’d rather have anything foss that works or kinda works.
If you ever experimented with this particular model or know what could work, feel free to post an answer.

Don’t use hacky unlocks if there’s an official way. The best case scenario is it becomes a headache and isn’t reliable; ghe worst case is that it bricks your phone or installs malware in the bootloader
All I could find looking for custom ROMs for your phone was XDA users shrugging their shoulders and unverified downloads from very shady websites/githubs. I’d suggest getting the most out of this phone you can before selling it and getting one you know works with the OS you want
