Ans you start from miui 14.0, not 13.0?did you flash from windows or linux? Will try tuesday..many thanks

Yes. My device is MIUI 14 and I flashed on Ryzen CPU with 3.0 Port on Window 10.
I already notices that screen dimming is due to refresh rate setting.
I find out Ancient OS (A13) is most suitable and stable since it has custom refresh rate setting. but it's has some bugs like can't see notification on status bar.
Now I'm switched back to MIUI since it has some bugs and no AOD availiable.

I bet if the buyers smart enough, they'll mostly will pass buying this. The price is closer to almost a mint second hand of Poco F4, offering almost better in everything except for maybe the main sensor (ov64b vs. imx766). And here we are Poco F4 has already a headstart in custom rom community.
And if you're willing to let go the OIS, Poco F3 isn't that bad either, price nowadays should be the same, its only disadvantages are slower charging and again, main sensor (imx586 vs imx766).
And the last, not to mention that Poco F5 is just around the corner... That should put some coffin nails to Redmi note 12 Pro.

the phone is just released, how could you put the nail? we haven't seen any development for this phone yet.

What I said was: if you're looking for a particular good phone with a good custom roms support, and if you want it now, or very quickly from now, Poco F4 is already here, and its price is very close to Note 12 Pro with same feature and even more potent SoC. And if custom roms in Poco F4 aren't adequate, there's also Poco F3, its community is more active than F4, new one old stock F3 should be priced similar to Note 12 Pro, only if you're willing to loose the fast 67w charger and OIS in Note 12 Pro.

But if you still want Note 12 Pro with custom rom... Well, that's up to you. I didn't say it wouldn't see any custom rom, it just... looks less interesting than the others two.

Redmi Note 8 Pro is the most active for MTK device as far as I know, and for more two years consecutive after its release, it was ridden by a lot of issues. It was ironed out very lately, just after A12 out, and sadly most people has already moved out. Another one was Redmi Note 9 and Redmi 9, merlin and lancelot, again, most their roms stay on A11 firmware because latest A12 firmware gives a lot of headache. I've seen some development on Note 10s (evoX) and Poco M4 Pro (ported roms?), which those are MTK, but again, they're very slow and they had been released earlier than Note 12 Pro, but to be honest, those devices didn't bring the same attractive to Note 12 Pro.

If those aren't providing enough for arguments... Its closest rival is their own Poco X5 Pro, which again uses more common and widespread soc in custom rom community, the SD 778g, which it has some development on similar device such Mi 11 Lite 5g. Xiaomi 12 Lite also uses SD 778g, still hasn't seen any development yet.

tl;dr: there are many xiaomi devices, even the "flagship" Xiaomi 12 or Xiaomi 12 Pro, has yet seen any custom roms. I'd say: stick to existing community or any "its looks more guaranteed to be supported by community" devices rather than hoping this one would have one in the future.

I did flash with MIUI 14 and successfully.
I erase user data,system,cache and A/B partition too.
I would use them if I have time to solve all the problem for myself and I think it's usable as daily rom.
The only problem I face is I can't flash vbmeta and it cause me bootloop to fastboot.
And important things is if you are in fastboot mode, phone screen show as FASTBOOTD
if not you are still in bootloader.
I use
Fastboot getvar is-userspace
Before
Fastboot boot fastboot

Can you share your exact way to flash please. I don't want to erase one more time my device....for nothing and flash again miui...thanks

That doesn't sound as a working solution.
Your are writing .... If I have time to solve all the problem for myself ....
So what does that mean ?

And .....
I erase user data,system,cache and A/B partition too......

is also stupid. In a and b slots are the boot, vbmeta, system_vbmeta. So if you erased a and b slots, it can't boot without boot partition.
