Hello
I would like to buy Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 AI Edition (please see the image in the attached file ), but is there a difference between this version and the pro version, is there any difference in the system version and the possibility of installing custom rom ?
thank you
yes there's difference in camera hardware between AI version and pro version but don't worry
but all custom rom here in xda works on both device it's Unified same oneplus 3 and 3t
only difference is in camera. rest everything same you can use same roms on all the whyred. they have same code as well.
I'm planning of getting one also, would like to know if the camera can be modded also? Such as camera 2 api.
Hi, please help me. Is there any chance to install MIUI 9 ROM on Mi A2 Lite? I can't find the official ROM for that phone. I found only Android One version ROM pack. I wanna buy this phone, I really like the design ect. but I don't like this whole Android One idea (I don't care about earlier updates), I don't like the interface, the icons. I prefer MIUI system overlay. Where can I find it?
Buy a MIUI device. There are plenty of them.

It is called Redmi 6 Pro, it's the Mi A2 Lite with MIUI (but without LTE 800 MHz frequency).
I know but that's not the answer, besides I have Redmi Note 4 already and I want A2 Lite not different model.

You thought wrong. That's the normal ROM with Android One.

useless the for large amount of people so thats not a solution to the posters question
I'm not sure why anyone would prefer a MIUI device over Android one, but seems to be that by making two versions Xiaomi is giving us plenty of options.. (not to mention adding more devices to their already convoluted line up). Depending on the 4G coverage with your provider/country not having band 20 might not even be a big deal.
Not every country has Redmi 6 Pro available...
since it's only for China Region (CMIIW)
and Mi A2 Lite is "more Global" with vanilla OS
me too want a MIUI OS over Mi A2 Lite due to MIUI's feature (such as, hide notch, hide nav-bar and using full swipe gesture, etc..)
any idea to flash MIUI over MiA2 Lite?
or can we just flash Redmi 6 Pro's ROM over MiA2 Lite device? is it compatible (it should be, due to the same hardware spec, CMIIW again)
It is not possible to flash Redmi 6 Pro (sakura) ROM on Mi A2 Lite (daisy).
A slight chance to do so could be by flashing it in EDL mode, but even if I get EDL permission from Xiaomi, I won't take that risk.
The only safe way is to wait some developer that ports sakura ROM to daisy. It could be even easier if a MIUI treble ROM exists (I don't know if it exists, as I dislike MIUI).

No, it's the general Xiaomi versioning system, and it is used in all their phones, those with MIUI and those with AndroidOne.
And that's an AndroidOne ROM, because it's installed it in my phone right now and I can't see any MIUI.

Then we are doomed. Android One is not for everyone, does not have many options compared with MIUI.
I own both a chinese import redmi 6 pro and a mi a2 lite from a local supplier.
I am sure the A2 lite will become more interesting than the 6 pro as soon as some devs are taking care of it by providing custom roms.
But for the moment the miui 10 dev roms from miglobe and co. offer a much better experience on the 6 pro device than the android one on the mi a2 lite builds.
I don't care a lot for the missing band support as I owned the redmi 4 pro before and never experienced receptions or speed problems.
i am looking forward to see some nice custom roms for the a2 lite.
Regards,
Dom
Any one got an idea about it?
The redmi 6 pro is a treble device too, that means, normally you should be able to extract system.img and flash it via fastboot.
In that case it doesn´t matter wheather the partition scheme is different!
You could give it a try. If it´s not working, you can flash back stock system via miflash (select flash and keep data)
Do we have brave ones to try? ?

I tried to do as it is written here https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/miui-10-install-guide-t3844729, but in our firmware did not find similar files to replace * abl.elf
* prog_emmc_firehose_Sdm660_ddr.elf
* prog_emmc_firehose_Sdm660_lite.elf
mi flash the error, then I replaced prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn and the download ok, but after installation I caught the bootlap, and returned to the stock through the test point. if anyone can figure out what files need to be replaced in firmware 6 pro, then it is possible to run miui.
Sorry for my English
Last time i checked, ( 10 minutes before posting this), The specs for Mi A2 Lite and Redmi 6 pro are totally the same, except the network bands. We can even assume that Redmi 6 pro is just rebranded version of Mi A2 Lite for India (and some other countries where they are being sold, if any). So, is it at all possible to flash that Android one directly into Redmi 6 pro, or do we need to make some modifications to the package.
Another short question...(as am a newbie and i would like the community to push my knowledge limit a little further). Is it at all possible to flash android one on to any other phone, whatever the specs maybe(same and different).
Edit - I found some interesting facts - Mi A2 Lite is indeed the Global version of Redmi 6 pro
- Redmi 6 pro uses a classic partitioning system while A2 lite uses the A/B system. So direct flashing the stock android one rom will brick it.
New questions - is there any ways to change the partition system from one to the other?
is there some way, we 'stock rom' lust hounds get a hand on it using this 6 pro?
And did you think about the notch?
Mi a2 rom
Did it work
Jay: Did you try A2 or A2 Lite?

Basically you can't flash Android one version of daisy on sakura. You can port android one for sakura or install a previous one which is ported and almost works fine.

Hey! I've been thinking the same thing, and I've tinkered around the fastboot stock images for both the A2 Lite and the 6 Pro. The stock image for Daisy contains a img named "partition" and I think this is what makes the A/B partition in the phone. I haven't tried it, But I'm think of doing it. editing all the flash_all.sh files in the Android One ROM from the A2 Lite, i.e replacing all codename "daisy" with "sakura" so it doesn't throw a invalid device error. I'll update

how were you able to flash the android one rom i also want to put it on my redmi 6 pro
Wondering about it. I'm thinking of buying one (whichever is cheaper at my place).
Also wondering if it is possible to replace/delete MIUI (im not sure what it is, been thinking it is OS so replacing it with Android One or any custom rom honestly)
Never had a Xiaomi product, so I'm at a lost.
If you prefer a clean vanilla Android experience go with the A2 Lite, if you prefer a heavy customized UI filled with "bloatware" go for the Redmi 6 Pro.
Even though both devices share the "same" hardware, they aren't OS flash compatible.
At the moment, we only have GSI roms when it comes to custom roms, but some people are working on a Lineage port.
Can't speak for the Redmi 6 Pro, better check its forum before buying one of the devices.
There are some differences between both devices. For example there is the different SoC (Snapdragon 636 for Note 6 Pro and the Snapdragon 625 for the Mi A2 Lite). Furthermore the software isn't compatible, if it would, we would have a nice MIUI-Rom for the Mi A2 Lite
But I think that you can replace the MIUI-Stock-Rom of the Redmi Note 6 Pro with another Custom Rom or GSI. This should work and as far as I know there are some Roms :good:

He didn't asked about Redmi 6 *Note* Pro. 6 Pro and A2 Lite use the same hardware.
Edit: The main differences between the 6 Pro and the A2 Lite are the partition scheme and the OS which is used. The 6 Pro has oldschool A type partition scheme, A2 lite uses A/B partition scheme for seamless OS updates and therefore you can't crossflash their stock roms 1:1.

Cleaner? o.o
I forgot to mention I was thinking about Redmi 5X / Mi A1 as well (A2 lite looks like an A1 with a bit of upgraded hardware + MIUI + more battery)
Mi A1 is priced cheaper by a lil bit, but yeah..
So there's no custom roms for A2 Lite yet? I want to root, yep.

There are Treble-Roms, these Roms are like a generic custom rom for many devices. The Mi A2 Lite supports these Roms and it also works fine.

I wouldn't buy a A1 anymore, because you will end up with only one more OS update and one year less of security patches.
Custom roms like Lineage are in the making and you can use GSI roms (just google them). Rooting is no problem, you won't
have any problems with OTA updates after rooting, as long as you don't alter the system partitions.

The R6P is also a treble device, that means, that you are also able to flash gsi roms! And there are more gsi's for the A only scheme... But the R6P has less lte frequencies - it doesnt have band 20 (800 mhz) which is important for europe!
I recently installed Pixel Experience Plus based on Android 13 on Note 5 Pro. It's the first time I've ever installed a custom rom. Could anyone help me with the GCam that I can go for? I'm looking for Indian configuration. Also, I'm new here; please help me with the steps to load up the config. file as well. Please excuse me if it's a duplicate thread.
