So the Chinese variant is redmi 5 plus which is currently available in my country, with same specs as redmi note 5, same processor and everything, will I be able to flash note 5 roms on redmi 5 plus after unlocking the bootloader when the custom roms of note 5 appear on here?
Seems like both are the same devices with different names. Both have Codename Vince.

According to an XDA article, "It’s basically a rebranded version of the Redmi 5 Plus that launched in China late last year." - see https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-note-5-redmi-note-5-pro-hands-on/

Can i flash redmi 5 plus china developer rom on redmi note 5 indian variant? if yes, can anyone tell how to do so and does that ROM miss any LTE Bands?
Why named Redmi 'note' 5/5 Plus here on XDA? I mean it supposed to be Redmi 5/5 Plus like what appears in the box and on gsmarena right?
Redmi note 5 (released in India) is renamed as Redmi 5 plus elsewhere (China & Malaysia as example). Codename for both is vince.
Redmi 5 is different device, codename Rosy (if I'm not wrong and AFAIK there is no specific thread for Redmi 5 on XDA)
So Redmi note 5 (India) = Redmi 5 plus (elsewhere)
Soon, Xiaomi will release Redmi note 5 in Malaysia which is now called Redmi Note 5 Pro in India, codename Whyred
Then Redmi note 5 pro (India) = Redmi note 5 (elsewhere)
I have a redmi 5 (rosy). When I search for 'my device' on xda it brought me to this forum (redmi note 5/5 plus) so was a bit confused as in my country Indonesia redmi note 5 not been released yet.. So in India they have different names I see. :good:
Hi devs, I have a redmi note 5 running MIUI 9.6.2 locked. I want to address this question to both official MIUI ROMs and custom ROMs: can I flash a rom for redmi note 5 Pro on the redmi note 5? Thanks.
Nope, you better don't. Note 5 pro Has SD 636 and regular Note 5 has SD 625. Similar but not the same.
What about installing redmi note 5 rom on redmi note 4 ?

Never flash a rom that isn't for your phone or you will very likely brick your phone
Android isn't like windows, you can't simply install the same version on every phone, each rom is only meant to run on a certain device with a specific configuration.
hi
i´m thinking to buy this https://www.amazon.de/Xiaomi-Redmi-...DM/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me=
but i do not know if i can use the ROMs here because its a "Redmi 5 Plus" and not a "Redmi note 5 Plus"
the forum title is confusion me [Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus] <-- does that mean "Xiaomi Redmi Note 5" can use the same ROMs as "Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus"
edit: just read that i have to wait 15 days to unlock bootloader... its that true? i thought its 48 hours not 15 days... really stupid i think i have to search other than Xiaomi
variant
REDMI NOTE 5 is the INDIAN version and REDMI 5 PLUS is the GLOBAL version, with the same hardware.
on the other hand yes, it is true, believe or not I had to wait for 360 hours (15 days wait) to unlock de bootloader in order to root my REDMI 5 PLUS, flash twrp and install custom ROMS. That is the unclear policy of XIAOMI.
thank you are 100% sure about that?
that means the ROMs here working with all version with and without note
on google i found a german site https://www.kimovil.com/de/vergleichen/xiaomi-redmi-5-plus,xiaomi-redmi-note-5 looks like they have wrong infos because the CPU is different
edit: found here in other thread from user SubwayChamp (thx btw)
No, this forum is for Redmi Note 5 and Redmi 5 Plus both with codename vince.
Redmi Note 5 Pro is known in China like Redmi Note 5 (whyred)
Redmi 5 Plus is known in India as Redmi Note 5 too (vince); This causes the confusion both receives same name depending from where they comes (or where they were released)
Whyred (snapdragon 636) has other specs than vince (625)

There is no note 5 plus.
Yours is redmi note 5 Indian version, same as redmi 5 plus global version aka vince.
There is too the redmi note 5 pro Indian version that is the same that global redmi note 5 aka whyred.
