AdAway - rooted, for most in-app ads, ReVanced - nonroot/root mostly used for Youtube, but can patch ads away from many other apps as well like reddit, twitter/X etc. , Iceraven browser - perhaps there are other ones as well, but I like this Firefox fork you can find on github that has...

Use Miflash to flash back the official rom (without locking bootloader) and then flash whatever rom you prefer.

But it is an app made by Xiaomi, the goal of xiaomi.eu is to not have any bloatware and only implement features that would benefit every user, not just some regions. You could always root the phone and write a simple magisk module that allows this.

Since xiaomi.eu was installed, its bootloader was already unlocked. Also I assume something was already figured out within those past 5 years.

Since the crash occurred during use and flashing stock, xiaomi.eu roms, with format didn't help.. possible hardware damage?

As long as you don't log out of the mi account on the phone, it'll be fine.

Aliex has plenty

Having a weird battery issue with mix 4 (odin), not even sure how to or if even possible to log it - battery percentage seems to be shown incorrectly, it may stay 10 hours on 100%, then slowly start losing percentages which is normal, at some point it suddenly loses 10-40% (depending on usage...

You could fix the phone as well, can find a new screen for around 30-50€ on aliex, it may or may not be as good as the original, but will allow you to recover data and have a backup phone later. Youtube is full of instructions and it really isn't that difficult.

https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/tutorial-battery-drain-lag-after-os-update.58011/ have you tried this?

If you aren't deterred by the idea of rooting (and solving safetynet/play integrity headaches for some apps), this behavior can be modified with lsposed modules like customiuizer (development has stalled, but forks have given it support for newer android/miui versions).

Most xiaomi phones you order from china lack B20 (there are some exceptions), wait for the global versions if that's important for you.

Yes, but personally I would avoid doing it, backing up data partition backs up every app with their settings, but also rom version specific data which makes the backup useless if you update (I'd use swiftbackup for backing up apps - requires root), backing up user data - internal storage...
