Porting a custom ROM from Redmi 6 pro? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hi everybody
As I know Redmi 6 pro have the same chipset as Redmi Note 4X (both using Snapdragon 625)
and these two phones share a number of other hardware similarities.
Has anyone ever tried to port a custom ROM from Redmi 6 pro?
Android 9 MIUI 11 ?

You will probably also find MIUI 11 somewhere in the development section

Thanks for your reply.
But I mean porting a stable MIUI ROM which can be used as the daily driver.

Why do you think that the ROM I posted wasn't stable?
Read the last few pages of the thread and you will see that people don't have any problems

I've used that rom for 2 days ....
it has some bugs and sometimes was laggy whitout any app installed!
I'm not arguing about that rom and have nothing to do with it.
I'm asking about a ported ROM from Redmi 6 pro and I explained why.

It is not expected to get Nougat based MIUI 9, but will probably get a marshmallow based version.

Yep, you seems like a total noob. You'll see for yourself, when RN3 will get MIUI 9 based on Marshmallow.
Even MIUI confirmed you? Haha.
It's the news sites which bring false info. by saying it's based on Nougat. In the time of MIUI8, they were saying the same thing. But guess what? MIUI 8 was bases on Lollipop for RN3. Later an update for MM was available months later. But Nougat will not get released to RN3.
I repeat, you'll see for yourself. Also, why are you bringing "family business" in our conversation? It's very cringe-worthy.
Honestly, I don't think Kenzo will ever get nougat. Please forget about miui nougat and move on with life
Don't buy any XIaomi device if you want updates and move on with your life.

[MIUI] Xiaomi Mi 2/2S Confirmed to Receive MIUI 9 Update!

3) From late September, 2017
MIUI 9 China ROM for all the other Xiaomi / Redmi devices (except Mi 1/1S and Mi 2A) will be successively released to the public!
http://en.miui.com/thread-711086-1-1.html
I'm bothered with one question. Today is a miui 9 beta roll out day. If the link for rn3pro still has not been leaked does it mean that the beta firmware will be tested by the wave method? At the begining they ll be test a small group of devices and along with it slowly adding the other devices?
Is there anyone who got successfuly aplied for beta testing? Please take at least screenshot from the closed section with links on the miui forum to see what devices are under the test now.

Dude you have the best os that is meant just for our device MIUI, as lately dev has been working hard on it and they finally release a new version of MIUI which is MIUI 9. Try it and feel the smoothness. I bet you wont look away from it,
else if u still find not suitable to miui, u might flash aosp based rom, some of them already got oreo build and it is always interesting trying a new os google's made.

EMUI it's a rip-off of MIUI so you don't miss anything.

How did one plus 5T get miui 10 port on Oreo and not our device?

Can this be ported to our device? If not why?
I'm so mad right now
It's so unfair that non-Xiaomi device get MIUI10 Beta port...... and RN4 don't....
I though RN4 have best development comunity but I guess I'm wrong....

Best development or worst community and blame xioame also op5t get miui port from mi6 that is flagship from last year not midranger rn4
Truth is that none of the developers and only a few users actually care about MIUI. We all come to XDA to finally delete MIUI from our phones and install custom ROMs.
Our phone will eventually get MIUI 10 which will still be based on Nougat (Mido) or Marshmallow (Nikel). By the time that happens, we will probably have Android P Beta for our phone.
Why do you people actually still use MIUI?
I don't use miui. But a phone that isn't even from xiaomi got it on the latest android version. This is important
And who would use a beta with the following bugs:
Not let me remove core MIUI app and too many bloatware Chinese app.
Can not change stock browser with third one as default one.
Same with music or video.
Nova launcher not working as it should with some bugs having
Continues issues with WhatsApp app not receiving notifications on time.
No ambient display.

I am talking about how a phone that isn't even from xiaomi got miui 10 on Oreo, while RN4 would get it only on nougat although officially. If miui 10 can be ported on Oreo then it could be done
Those bugs are terrible, but that isnt what the question is for. Ambient display wouldn't matter for our phone though.

Xiaomi simply doesn't update the Android version once the phone is released. That's why people come here in the first place.
What do you guys actually miss about or like about MIUI?
My thought is why do you even care what version android you are on if you use miui? Miui no matter the android base is the same. Miui is not just a skin on android but a massive rework of the entire code giving android 5.x the same features as 8.x. Miui also keeps the android security patch fairly updated.
I live in the US and have used miui ported roms since 2013 on gingerbread devices. Miui has always had better features than stock android and never mattered if you had new or old devices new or old android version if you had 2.2.3 miui you had the same rom features as everyone using 2.2.3.
The best question. If developer can port miui10 , our phone can get any version of miui unofficially. If op5T can get unofficially, RN4x can get also . All in developers hands.

Because Android OS version matters, the os upgrade is not a skin upgrade. Miui skins contains features but it doesn't bring os level support from apps and security upgrades.
5T has MSM8998 and Mi6 has the same processor too.
Redmi Note 4(Qualcomm) has MSM8953.
Im working on an MIUI Oreo port from Redmi S2 but im very busy these days so its moving a bit slowly. Ive booted the leaked one from Redmi 5 Plus so i think i can boot the S2 one too.
I personally wanna wait Redmi 5 Plus to update
Ill probably not release it but who knows...

i feel pretty confident that xiaomi will give miui 10 based on oreo 8.1 . Look at all those **** tonne of xiaomi phones with snapdragon 625. Heck they launched redmi y2 (redmi s2) in india which has miui 10 on oreo 8.1 .So it's a pretty big chance that redmi note 4 will get official oreo, and even redmi 5 plus

The modded MIUI 10 for OnePlus which was posted here is based on Oreo 8.0.
And if Xiaomi updated their old phones with new Android versions, people would be less likely to buy new ones.
I'd love to see a MIUI 10 ported ROM on Oreo.

huh xiaomi's been using the sd 625 for abt 2.5 years now. idk how long they will keep using it. there's no point of upgrading a xiaomi to another xiaomi if u won't go for the higher segment.

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 ?

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.
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.

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

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.

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.

Merlin is Redmi Note 9 and it is not "miatoll".

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:
