Codename for the device.
I'm on. Miui 10 developer rom 27th update on vince. I have flashed region fix with twrp treble, eventhough default region appears China, I have to manually select India after each reboot. Any solution?
Sent from my Redmi Note 5

I've done the installation through orange fox and that issue didn't persisted anymore so, you could try that too.

not to be confused, our device redmi 5 plus (redmi note 5 in India) has the code name 'vince'
redmi note 5 china (redmi note 5 pro global) has the codename 'whyred'.

Just got this phone after some years off android and I find myself being confused by so many terms. Would love to start flashing roms like I did 5yrs ago.
Can I know the process to follow? (already unlocked my bootloader)
Thanks in advance

you can use xiaomi tool kit (search on google) to flash any custom recovery. then flash a good rom (currently miui 10 is best for me.) flash magisk if you want root stuffs or go with flashing lazy flasher after miui rom. reboot, done!

I have downloaded miui 10 global fastboot rom. What is orange fox? I already unlocked bootloader..
Hi @ridersam
Need some advices from you. I am interested in installing Custom Rom on my Redmi 5 Plus. The one I am referring to is Android P Vince (already got hold of the step by step instructions). My concerns :-
1. Waiting to unlock my bootloader in the next few days (Redmi 5 Plus) with root too and to install Red Wolf Recovery (fastboot to install the standard twrp). The default is OrangeFox-R6-Beta-vince.zip recovery
2. From standard twrp to flash Red Wolf Recovery instead of OrangeFox recovery. Can I do that?
3. Going to install Android P Vince custom rom in Redmi 5 Plus (serial of steps instruction from the devs). Done and reboot as my daily driver.
4. Can this Red Wolf Recovery be used like normal twrp recovery for other custom rom or backup and/or restore not only Redmi 5 Plus?
5. Through fastboot I can also install Red Wolf Recovery, right! Do I have to rename the file like recover.img rather the actual name RedWolf-Unofficial-vince-2.img? Another method to install recovery.
Thank you
I have a question
Does the aosp ROMs, pixel experience and such are using the open sources of Vince that Xiaomi released months ago?

[ASK] [MIUI 10] Install unknown sources apk
I've installed MIUI 10 via updater app today, following a factory reset from MIUI 9.6.4. I didn't use fastboot method bcs I'm just lazy lol.
Today i tried installing Sony Music App apk which I had on my previous MIUI.
After finished installing, the screen says "App not installed"
Any idea how to work around this? The install permission setting of unknown sources is confusing as you need to allow each app you would like to open apk from. And no, this is not because screen filter app which restricts you from pressing the install button, I don't use such app and i get to press the install button.
Then i tried enabling it from all my file explorer app, even manually enabling the PackageInstaller system app to install from unknown sources. The problem persisted so i try downloading other apk from another mirror site, and nothing is working.
I'm currently on the 8.8 update of MIUI 10.
Help appreciated.
Hello everyone.
I would like to install the Pixel ROM in my redmi note 5 pro, and I have some doubts.
I tried once to install this rom, at the time I used the MIUI 10 Android 9 beta and a version of TWRP for Android 9, but it gave an error 7 and I gave up.
Now I'm with MIUI 10.3.1.0 and I'm booting the TWRP pc with version 3.3.0.0. I would like to know if with these versions I could install the latest version of Pixel ROM.
I am also with ROOT, if I install the Pixel ROM I will need to do ROOT again? My root is with Magisk.
I used Google Translate to make this text. If you have any errors I apologize.

See the last 2 pages and you will find everything related to your query in the thread linked to the below link.

Official PixelExperience was discounted, I recommend you to try another ROM
Can anyone do some developing for Redmi note 8 pro. Because so much peoples are waiting for the roms for this phone?
My understanding at the moment, is that custom ROM development is being prevented on the Redmi Note 8 Pro, because it can get hard-bricked (become completely unusable) MUCH too easily, and the only way to unbrick it, is to use an authorised Xiaomi service account (which very few people have).
This means that, whenever a developer tries to test something they're working on (a custom ROM or custom recovery), if their phone gets hard-bricked while testing, their development completely stops until/if they can get their phone unbricked.
If Xiaomi were to allow all users to unbrick their Redmi Note 8 Pro easily (without needing these authorised Xiaomi service accounts), then I think that custom ROMS would start to come out (I believe the full source code has already been released, which is a prerequisite for custom ROM development).
Other members, please feel free to share your views, and correct me if I'm wrong on the above; what are the chances that Redmi Note 8 Pro owners will be able to easily/quickly unbrick their hard-bricked devices in the future?

I'm waiting and can't wait for some sort of ASOP rom to drop. Love the phone had it 3 weeks now and am rooted on MIUI 11. However I would really like to swap the rom as soon as possible

true, also mediatek is also to blame, they really aren't that "open-source" compared to other chipset manufacturers. thus preventing custom roms and app ports like a stable gcam port.

Is substratum theme working on rooted device ?
I just found out my problem with my banking app. My phone isn't crypted. So this makes my Redmi Note 7 more superior than Redmi Note 8T?
Is there no possible ways? Only stock ROM and encryption enabled?
Edit: Okay I just some how managed to encrypt my phone... Never mind guys false alert, gotta find out if the bank software works now. Thanks to all the guides tho. Had to install stock MIUI ROM, brick my phone and install vbmeta.img to finally at Resurrection Rom
edit2: Yeah still no luck with banking software, it means Redmi Note 7 > 8T
I am running a EU (i think) note 8 pro with a global 12.5.7 official rom, it has way too many glitches i don't want to deal with and i wanted to change rom, i once tried and bricked it, i recovered it a bit after and that-s how i got 12.5.7, what's the safest way to mod it and what rom is the safest? I was looking at either CrDroid or CorvusOS, which one would you recommend?
To be fair, I have the stock rom, version 12.5.7 and is the most stable version I ve encountered. I have not considered any custom ROM yet because they all seem to lack behind the stock rom. Sure, you get better looks and the vibe of stock debloated rom. Then again you lose a lot of features, Bluetooth range is abysmal and performance is worse compared to stock. And don't get me started on hard bricking risks. My advice would be to make a full reset and stick to the stock rom.

1/You can find many free unbrick hardbrick videos for Redmi note 8 pro. And it's simple to unbrick (in my opinion).
2/You got brick because you didn't follow flash guide.
Example:
- You flash 12.5.x firmware based rom when you are using Miui 12.0.x
- You didn't format data or format data error
- ...
3/Each custom rom has it own support group in each thread. If you want recommend, join there to ask or try it yourself.
Pixel experience imo is good I used to use ppui but rip
