any one of Whyred or Vince, if you use Vince it will show your device name as Redmi 5 Plus, instead of Redmi Note 5.
I am using Vince because i wanted to install Pixel Experience Rom and it was only available for Vince.

yes they are differnet device but you can install their rom into one another.

If you want your device to end in a bootloop, then yes, you can flash it.
Vince and Whyred are completely different devices. Vince has SD625 and single camera, Whyred has SD636 and dual camera. You simply can't install their roms onto each other. Please don't tell the people to do so or you'll be responsible for a lot of bricked devices.

Can I flash a RN5 pro rom on RN5?

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.

Android Pie ROMS for Whyred devices?

Every ROM I've come across seems to be for Vince only. Was wondering if there are any 9.0 ROMS available for Redmi Note 5 Global (Whyred)?

Can i install redmi note 5 oreo rom on redmi note 4 (mido)

As both these phones share similar hardware , can I install redmi note 5 miui rom on rn4 or any way to mod rn5 miui so that it can work on rn4 ?

You can install pixel experience for rn4 mido version with Qualcomm cpu here:
https://download.pixelexperience.org/mido/
And TWRP from here:
https://twrp.me/Devices/Xiaomi/
Thanks for the reply
However I am not a newbie here , I have been tinkering with android devices , even with earlier mediatek based devices.
I have had my fair share of bootloops and stuff.
The only reason I asked this was that these both devices are literally same. Just different screen sizes(which doesn't matter much in software side of things).
They share same ram, rom, cpu etc.
Edit : Plan dropped
Just found out , theres no portrait mode on redmi note 5/ redmi 5 plus , whereas portrait mode on rn4 works perfectly on both cams.
Beta of rn4 is more like stable , however it is not the case with note 5/ redmi 5 plus.

That's unified device tree for all Redmi Note 9 devices. 9S, Indian Pro, Global Pro (Curtana, Joyeuse, Excalibur)

Thanx a lot. That means that I can flash it on my curtana
Do Miatoll roms need twrp-unified-mauronofrio custom recovery to flash? or I can flash them with any custom recoveries like pitchblack
I mean, is the miatoll device tree embedded in the rom file or need an especiall custom recovery like that I said ?
No need of any special custom recovery u can use pitchblack recovery
Miatoll is the codename of unified branches of Curtana, Joyeuse, Excalibur and Gram.
It means any ROMS and recovery for "Miatoll" should work across the four devices under it.
One curious query
Does it apply to poco m2 pro as well?

I already know that. but it looks like miui 12 is doing all the work for poco m2 pro. Nowadays other custom roms doesn't require much attention specially in the case of mi device. You see the developers eventually leaves the project.

I agree with u that miui 12 hv all things..but i think Devs are not leaving they are working on Android 11
To make it also MIATOLL from the start.. bcoz our device is probably going get the android 11 update from the 1st quarter of 2021 officially..

Anex cam is giving me doubts regarding quality and all, and the gapps support is also questionable. As most devs recommend pico gapps while myself personally think aroma is a better option than that. That way we can choose for ourselves. But those things are preincluded in miui roms which is beneficial for a certain amount of time. And to be honest miui is packing most of the customisations in it that substratum, rr and others do. It's getting even better. And more stable than custom roms. As they are official and guarantees all features and optimisations.
Does it also apply to the Redmi Note 9? I indeed see it listed for PixelExperience as 9S, 9 Pro, Pro Max and POCO M2 Pro. But not specifically for the 9.
Can anyone confirm?
Edit: I already got an answer in the PE chat. It is a whole different device.
miatoll = curtana + excalibur + joyeuse + gram

Not all.
Merlin is Redmi Note 9 and it is not "miatoll".
Merlin, does NOT shares the same kernel with Curtana, Joyeuse, Excalibur and Gram.
It shares the same kernel of Redmi 10X 4G, Redmi 9 and Redmi POCO M2.

Lol Dude... Did you see i have mentioned "merlin" or standard Redmi Note 9 somewhere?
This thread is for the Pro and S models with Snapdragon devices. The standard note 9 doesn't have a Snapdragon and doesn't even belongs here. That will confuse people only.

What did you mean with "all Redmi Note 9 devices" ?
Do you mean MERLIN is not part of the "all Redmi Note 9 devices" ?
You are confusing people.
Be direct and explain what you say.

Dude just be quiet. This isn't the thread for "Merlin"! That's why I named all the device which I meant. Everybody got it except you!
Also I'm not interested to discuss with smart alecks.

This confused me too... Curtana would be any device RN9s (global?) / RN9 Pro (indian?), correct?
... What devices are these: Excalibur, Joyeuse, Gram?
My device is the RN9s (global?)... I should use the procedures for the Curtana or Miatoll (all/anyone), correct?
Xiaomi POCO M2 Pro / Redmi Note 9S / Redmi Note 9 Pro / Redmi Note 9 Pro Max are miatoll. The procedure is the same for all these devices:
