Redmi note 5 EU question

Hi all, a bit confused.
I am in italy and have RN5 Eu version.
Do i have to refer to the "whyred" version for modding? For custom roms? So is this "Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus" the right section for me?
Thanks!

First of all there is no EU version. There is Redmi note 5 Pro(Indian version), Redmi note 5 AI(Chinese version), and just Redmi note 5 global version(same as AI chinese but with global rom + band20 support). All of these are codenamed whyred, while note 5/plus is different device with snapdragon 625 and single camera on back.

Yes, whyred is the code name for the device family of Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Global (EU) and Pro (India). Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Plus is within the Vince code name family. Next time I suggest you to do a quick search trough the forums before posting such question with very easy to find answer.

if you have two cameras on back of the phone it is whyred.

i had the same question in the past.
vince is for redmi 5 plus or note.
whyred is for yours.
i think in asia the redmi 5 plus is called note too.
it's confusing i know.
our phone in europe is RN5 redmi note 5 aka codename whyred.
There are 3 variants.
Redmi 5 note global
Redmi 5 China
Redmi 5 pro for India

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.

Where are the custom roms?

Hi,
I'm currently in the situation that I need a new phone. The Redmi Note 8 and the Redmi Note 7 are almost the same price. That's why I would prefer the Redmi Note 8. Now I saw on XDA that there are a lot of ROMs for the Redmi Note 7 and only 2 officials for the Redmi Note 7. Is there a reason for that? I know that the Redmi Note 8 is new. But still after some months I thought there would be more official roms.
What do you think? Will there be more in the future or is the Note 8 abandoned? And what is the reason for that?
Thank you in advance.

roms currently available for redmi note 8 are
posp,
aosip derpfest,
PE(both unofficial and official),
mi room,
miuimix,
lineage os,
bootleggers,
mi novo,
hydrogen os,
superior os,
ressurection remix,
aosip
development has already started for note 8. But the only issue is that all these roms give random reboot in huaxing display(Except PE). If you have tianma display it would work fine.

hi,why the rom are only in telegram?

hi, i'm new in this forum. is that because the device is new and there's not a lot of support for other roms right now? or is there a problem with biloba that makes it bad for modding

Good question!
I am used to Xiaomi devices having a huge modding base, so I got the Note 8 (2021)...
I unlocked bootloader, thinking it was a willow, and just realized I have a biloba...
Any custom rom in sight?

So far I only rooted my biloba. Probably you could try GSI Roms on it, but I haven't tried yet.

Question Flashing Pixel-Experience ROM.

So I wanted to flash this phone (Redmi Note 10 5g) with the pixel-experience ROM. But I can only find "Redmi Note 10 (mojito)" and "Redmi Note 10 Pro (sweet)" in the devices section of the webpage and I can't find any guides where the 5g model was used. I would like to know how to go about using pixel-experience with this model of the phone.
Do I just use the "Redmi Note 10 (mojito)" or is there some other way?
Thank you.

No or little development for Xiaomi with Mediatek processors.

The codename must match yours, if you don't know, post the phone version.
Example: M2103K19G, M2103K19Y, M2103K19PG
Redmi note 10(T) 5g
As said above the redmi note 10(T) 5g has a Mediatek soc, the rom you want installed is for Qualcomm socs.

yeah. I tried fastboot, It said the size is too large. Imma just keep using miui.
