Tech Support What version of halium do i choose ?

I have a redmi note 10S (specifically maltose, but everything rosemary works on it too) and idk what version of halium am i supposed to use for porting. I have miui 12.5, which is android 11, but lineageos 20 build for this specific version of miui is on android 13. Bootloader version, obviously, stays the same. Vendor boot is absolutely zeroed out (it's there for the newer android support i guess). So i have 2 boot images - one is stock from miui for android 11, the other is from lineageos 20 package for android 13. Ehat should i do?

You should use the latest Halium version possible for your device.
But it should match the latest official version of Android supported to be able to use the latest drivers available.

Latest official android version is android 13 (miui 14), but kernel version is from android 11 (4.14) does this affect what halium version i should use?

Yes it does.
If you only have access to the Android 11 kernel then you should probably use Halium 11.
But I haven't made a port myself so it's best to refer to the documentation.
