Redmi note 5 and Redmi note 5 Pro

Good evening,
before starting with modding, I would like to understand if at least I'm in the right section, this is the redmi notes 5 Pro section, (Indian version, if I have not misunderstood). I own a Redmi note 5 (global version, model name M1803E7SG). Can i use the guides of this section to proceed with the unlocking of the bootloader and to get the permissions of root??
Thank you!

Yes, you own a Redmi Note 5, also knows as whyred.
This tactic from Xiaomi confused alot of people.
Vince is the one with a single rear camera, while whyred is the one with the dual camera setup.
In India:
Redmi Note 5 is VINCE.
Redmi Note 5 Pro is WHYRED.
In Europe:
Redmi 5 Plus is VINCE.
Redmi Note 5 is WHYRED.
Also, AFAIK, unlocking the bootloader is the same deal with any Xiaomi phone. Using the unlock tool and the waiting time, etc, no matter the device you have.

Confusion about all the Note 5 variants

Hello,
I'm new to the Xiaomi community and I recently ordered the
Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Dual camera 4GB/64GB version.
I understand that there's the Xiaomi redmi note 5 3/4GB 64/128GB single camera version;
Xiaomi redmi note 5 Pro 4/6GB 64/128GB version;
Xiaomi redmi note 5 Dual AI 4/6GB 64/128GB version.
The thing that really confuses me, is the Dual camera version the same as the Pro?
I couldn't find the Pro version on most stores and the specs seem to be quite similar.
Will I be able to install the same ROM's on the Dual version that are meant for the Pro?
Are they really the same?
This is really getting me frustrated and I can't find any info online about this.
Please help.

Xiaomi is the master of confusion regarding phone variants and names.
But in your case and only if your phone has two backside cameras:
- Xiaomi redmi note 5 Pro 4/6GB 64/128GB -> REDMI NOTE 5 PRO INDIA
- If your phone says that it uses a Global MIUI ROM then: Xiaomi redmi note 5 Dual AI 4/6GB 64/128GB -> Redmi Note 5 Global
- If your phone says that it uses a Russian MIUI ROM then: Xiaomi redmi note 5 Dual AI 4/6GB 64/128GB -> Redmi Note 5 Russia
Now, I am a little bit confused where exactly someone will find ROMs for Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 3/4GB 64/128GB with a single camera. It's believed that this variant is actually the Redmi 5 Plus but... I am not sure.

Thank you.
I checked the custom ROMs online regarding the single camera version, they were called just "Note 5 single camera" and there were a lot designed specifically for that version. I believe my specific version of Xiaomi is the China version, since it is the chinese version with the Global ROM installed, if that's the case, there are plenty of ROMs for me to choose.

You wrote your Xiaomi is the Chinese version but it has a Global ROM... How do you know that? If I am not too indiscreet, what is your model version?
In case you do not know, you may find that information under:
Settings-> About phone

I have just placed the order on the phone. I haven't recieved it yet. The description of the phone says that it is the Chinese version with the Global ROM.

i am in italy and doing a cpuz it says whyred...

m1803e7sg = same as redmi note 5 'PRO'? can I flash roms for the PRO version?

I am unsure if the note 5 pro forums are right for my phone as I have the redmi note 5 (not pro) m1803e7sg with 3GB RAM,
the ram and storage seems to me being the only major difference, so are ROMS compatible?
if not, is there another forum for my model?

If it has sdm636 its redmi note 5 pro/Global/AI/Whyred

As long as your phone using Sd 636
It the same device

or dual camera its the same whyred.

I just saw in cpu-z it has the qualcom snapdragon sdm636, so I am good? I know for my previous samsung phone there were varieties within same models that would make it incompatible with certain roms

So I've red some more, is it correct that my device is the whyred version? I believe it is redmi note 5 global

Yes the PRO and Global use the same ROMs. Even for official MIUI ROMs. I also have the same model number because I have the global model as well but 4GB RAM with 64GB storage option. As long as the codename is whyred it'll work just fine. I know Xiaomi's model naming can be really confusing. The ROMs on this forum will work on your device.

Hey, yes it is. I have it and I've flashed a lot of roms like Havoc or PE. In Europe the redmi note 5 pro is just called redmi note 5. You have the global version btw. (B20 working on this model).

Hi guys, no idea if there are still active people here but I have a redmi note 5 (3gb RAM, SDM660, model M1803E7SG. So same as above but with SDM660 instead of 636. Will these roms work for this model as well?

Yes, it should work. The Snapdragon 636 and 660 are very similar, so some apps may display it as sdm660. Whyred ROMs will work on your device.
