Best custom rom for Redmi note 5 pro whyred

Hi guys
I would like to ask if possible help me with unlocking, rooting and helping me decide which custom rom to install on my Redmi note 5 pro.
I been off for sometime from xda, so bear with me.
Many thanks

Pixel experience plus (Android Pie) is the most stable and fast custom ROM I have tested
Unlock bootloader by the official Xiaomi application (backup your personal files because this operation will erase all phone data)
Install ADB drivers for Xiaomi device
Flash OrangeFox recovery 10 for Whyred
Wipe cache, system and vendor partitions
Install downloaded ROM (fromixelexperience.com)
Use "How to..." On YouTube to search detailed videos about flashing pixel experience (or any other custom ROM) on Redmi Note 5 Pro

Advising on a ROM is going to be hard as there are soooo many. A lot seem similar when reading them but may have a unique feature or bug. If you are able to change ROMs often then just try them out and swap between them. For me I use my phone for work. I rely on email and some apps. I also need GPS /maps and banking apps to work so I have a ROM that suits. It's an older ROM using 8.1 and I would like to upgrade but can't risk bugs.
To unlock the bootloader you need the official Xiaomi unlocked and sign up your account. Takes a few days or used to anyway.
Once unlocked just install your ROMs the usual way

[GSI][AOSP][10.0] Phh-Treble System-Quack-Arm64-A/B REDMI NOTE 9

How to flash Quack Phh-Treble arm64-a/b GSI on the Redmi Note 9 (MERLIN)
All the development credits for this GSI go to @phhusson. For more information head over to his thread.
And @nielsync for the guide on Redmi 9(This method worked on my redmi note 9)
Bugs:
Auto brightness
Headphone jack
Can't test VoLTE so likely not working
What is working:
Everything else
I’m not a developer so you should report bugs at phhusson's treble experimentations issues tracker on GitHub.
WARNING:
I am not responsible for any damage to your smartphone.
All your data will be deleted during the process so a backup is essential
Requirements:
1) Unlocked bootloader here
2) Latest Android platform tools here
3) MIUI stock recovery (maintain it to be able to boot fastbootd)
4) Xiaomi fastbootd drivers here
5) I flashed Phh-Treble AOSP 10.0 v222 system-quack-arm64-ab-gapps here (download the file system-quack-arm64-ab-gapps, unzip it, and rename it as system.img)
6) vbmeta.img here
Steps:
1) Reboot your phone in fastboot mode (reboot and hold volume -)
Run the commands below within the platform-tools folder(copy vbmeta.img and system.img to platform tools folder)
2) fastboot reboot fastboot (to boot into fastbootd mode)
3) fastboot flash system system.img
4) fastboot erase userdata
5) fastboot erase cache
6) fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
7) fastboot reboot
Notes:
Phh-Treble has root by default which is a plus. Due to the Redmi 9's partition structure the system is effectively read only.
The following video shows the procedure on the Redmi 9, is the same on Redmi Note 9 (video in spanish sorry)

What is your telegram user? I'd like to talk about the credits stuff, because I developed the guide for merlin and posted it in group. This is just an edited copy, reported.
Also, you messed up the commands.
+ the video posted below is of Lancelot and not even merlin.

Is it smoother than Miui and gives more performance??

Hello bro, @nielsync make this guide for Redmi 9 lancelot (serch in Redmi 9 forum).
I just tried the same on my Redmi Note 9 and it worked. I have the redmi 9 and the redmi note 9, so I was able to test the method.
About the YouTube video, I am the owner of the channel, and in the channel is the same method (very similar) for the redmi note 9s and redmi 9.
So these types of procedures are not new to me.
And about the commands, none are missing.
I'm sorry I did the guide before you.
Have a great day.

I'm happy you guys found my guide helpful and this is simply a copy paste of it. Me and the guys over at the Redmi 9 forums tried many times until we booted and so I came up with those steps. They can be used to flash a GSI on basically any device with logical partitions including A/B devices with two slots by flashing the system on both. A thanks does me no harm

I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 ( miui V11.0.7.0.QJOEUOR ) not S not pro just note 9
- my bootloader is unlocked
- I followed to the letter everything that was indicated
- latest android platform tools
- I haven't touched the recovery
- I have installed the xiaomy fastbootd drivers by following the procedure described above.
- I do very exactly the fastboot procedure
invariably and whatever the rom gsi (quack or havoc ) in ARM64 A/B I always have the same mistake:
write system (etc)
...
...
FAIL
REMOTE THIS PARTITION DOESN'T EXIST
if anyone can help me I don't understand

Great that there is at least GSI for this phone.
Is there a default camera app? Or which are you using and what about the quality?

It comes with default android Camera app (the one in any AOSP-based rom) its stable, but quality is avarage (not good, not bad).
I also tested GCam (version published in this same forum by another user) which is relatively stable and has better quality but its slower.

Newer firmware doesn't necessarily make the device faster. There isn't much you can do about a 9 yr old device.
Since the T800/T805 are not Treble compliant, the only way to run newer firmware is via custom ROMs, although I doubt development on devices this old gets much attention.

So what I understand is there is not much to do with the tablet to make it a little bit faster.
What about root or that is a different matter?

Root is a different matter. In most cases, you can flash the Magisk app through TWRP, and Magisk will automatically detect the right way to root your device. If TWRP is not available, you'll need to patch the AP firmware file in Magisk, then flash to your device with Odin.

Would you be able to suggest which old tablets could make sense to flash semi-current roms onto? I tried to bring back some old device to reuse for home assistant display, but it's too old... Been thinking about these samsungs, but from this thread it's also a bit too old.

I don't have any suggestions, sorry. I have a Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (T290) at home that I'm running an AOSP GSI on, but those were released in 2018.

imho it's correct that a custom ROM doesn't necessarily make old devices faster, but I experienced it such that at least they don't get slower (except I9195).
Recently I was allowed to support development of Android 19=LOS 20 for my T325 and it runs like hell.
P600 and P900 on LOS14, T810 on LOS19 all using daily in different rooms.
I9195 on LOS18 (that is really laggy) N910F on LOS18 as backup devices.

Root OneUI 3.0

Is there a guide for rooting oneui 3.0, i´m asking this question because oneui 2.x has android 10

Did you found solution to root android 11?
I know for android 10 but not for 11.
I manage to root tricking the lz4 files which is the new type of extension in Android and for this you can not root in a normal way. I followed this guide
Fix Oreo Firmware Installation Issue in Odin for Samsung Devices - DroidViews
Android Oreo has finally made its way to Samsung's latest S series flagships, the Galaxy S8 and S8+. The Oreo update brings with it the usual Android Oreo features such as Picture-in-Picture, redesigned Settings app, etc. It also brings with it Samsung Experience 9.0 which is but a fancier name…
www.droidviews.com
After having the 4 stock files modified without lz4 you must flash them with Odin.
After you take the modified AP file and patch it with Magisk.
Then you flash again stock using the patched AP file and the rest of modified files but you must not select autoreboot in Odin. When the flashing is done you must exit download mode and imediatelly enter in Recovery mod but better use this guide

Yes, you can root on A13. There are several guides in the forum with instructions. Just click on the "How to Guides" tab in the Quick Filters at the top of the main Pixel 6 Pro forum page.

No one can predict if you will have any problems, but to ensure you don't, after you unlock the bootloader then next do this:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash bootloader --slot all bootloader.img
Substitute the name of your bootloader file (NOT boot.img) instead of "bootloader.img". Get the bootloader.img from inside the inner zip file that's in the latest Android 13 Stable (full) Factory Image from:
Factory Images for Nexus and Pixel Devices | Google Play services | Google for Developers
developers.google.com
Once you do that you'll be as safe as we should be. You only have to do that once, not every time you update your phone. You can do it every time if you choose to, but there's no reason to.
Latest SDK Platform Tools and Google USB Driver required.

Thanks! I'll try...

I also bought a phone from Japan while I live in Indo. Google lock indo 5G. I mean can we unlock that bro?

There is no difference in rooting A12 and A13. Just make sure you have, at the minimum, the A13 bootloader flashed to both slots. Information is in the guides on how to do that if you don't know.

All the how to original posts are updated frequently and give the best options for root. However, you seem nervous to follow them, part of the responsibility of having a rooted phone is being able to follow what are straight forward (if assuming of non novice status of the reader) steps.
An additional new topic would be redundant

I would recommend to anyone who wants a pain free experience rooting android 13 to use flashtool and download the factory image. Fastboot boot the patched boot image, direct install.
