How to disable input type=text in javascript so that it can't be changed even by inspection
It is possible to disable input element by adding disabled attribute. However this can be removed by devtools that come with browsers. Is there any other way to deal with this so that devtools can't be used to enable it?

No there is not. You should validate on the server side everything that comes from the client, because you can't trust the client at all. It's always possible to mess with the HTML/Javascript on the client side.
