Hello, I bought my first used phone (Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro) and was wondering what are the best practices taken before using it. I’ve read the reviews of the merchant selling the phone, looked into ratings and asked some questions about the condition of the phone, so I’m sure of my purchase on that end.
What about after receiving the phone? I know I would run a factory reset, aside from that, is there anything else to do?
Redmis usually have a good 3rd party rom support, if you can open the bootloader. Literally any rom is a better experience than MIUI or whatever they call that nowadays.
There is already a crdroid official available: https://xdaforums.com/f/xiaomi-redmi-note-13-pro-5g-poco-x6-5g.12860/
Xiaomi probably has some kind of maintenance app that can run automated checks, do that. If you’re paranoid, check if the bootloader is unlocked and if so reflash the stock rom.
Ty!
