Whyred on Redmi Note 5? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I have a Redmi Note 5 and a number of months ago I installed CrDroid Whyred on it. It's working fine. However, I see that I should be using Vince...or should I?
Thanks.
P.S. Just to be clear, it's not a Redmi Note 5 Pro.

Oh...found my answer, I think:
Redmi Note 5 - Whyred or Vince?

phone model incorrect or have I been tricked?

hi all,
I bought (at least what I thought I did) xiaomi redmi note 4x and I just niticed that the phone info says xiaomi redmi note 4 and note xiaomi redmi note 4x... have I been tricked?
Thanks for the help..
Re
As long as you got the Snapdragon (Which is the Octa-core) you own what we would call the 4X, but better the MIDO.
Xiaomi is inconsistent in its naming scheme.

Redmi note 4/4X is code named mido

Or easy use CPU-Z app from Playstore and check its SD variant

MIDO is the code name/production name of the Xiaomi Note 4 with snapdragon, NICKEL is the codename of the Xiaomi Note 4 with Mediatek Chip
Xiaomi released Redmi Note 4 in china with MTK. Then, because of legal problems they released Redmi Note 4 in India with SD. Since the global Redmi Note 4 was already MTK, they named the global SD variant Redmi Note 4X.
My model number is also written as Redmi Note 4. I bought it from Flipkart. I am not aware what is 4X! I just knew that Note 4 has two variants Mediatek and Snapdragon.

Xiaomi Redmi note 5 (China)

Hi everyone,
is there an seperat forum for China version? Because the Camera setup is different.
We need Indian and China Version separeted, dont we?
Thank you.
Nobody has an answer?
This forum is for the Redmi Note 5 (In India)/ 5 Plus with the codename Vince, both of which have a single camera setup. I assume you are talking about the Redmi Note 5 (International)/ Pro with the codename "Whyred" which has the dual camera setup. If you are talking about the latter, then head to the forums foe the Redmi Note 5 Pro.
How can we know which version we have?
My supposed to be China, how can I confirm?
Thanks

Redmi Note 5 or Mi A1 ?

Hey guys im looking to upgrade my Redmi Note 4. So im torn between RN5 and Mi A1. I like the screen of Note 5 but I also like the A1 dual camera :/ . Besides bigger screen RN5 is not much of an upgrade... So i guess I just need second opinions
Mi A2 gonna launch in few days. I think you should wait for that
RN5 cameras are far better than A1's. Look at some reviews on YouTube. I would go Rn5, no doubts
Instead go for RN5 pro.
Combo of both bigger display and camera...
RN5Pro , definitely good development and best redmi.

Hello what do You mean by redmi note 5? Vince (sd 625) or whyred (Sd 636)
Ye I wasnt informed well. Redmi note 5 pro china edition is awesome. 5.99 screen, dual cameras.. I think ill go for it
Ok new question? What do you think about redmi s2 ? Is it a good upgrade from redmi note 4? How much better is note 5 from redmi s2? In my country Redmi S2 64/4 is a lot cheaper than Note 5 64/4

I think redmi s2 is just another redmi note 4 with different design, nothing is upgraded except dual camera bs
You could just stay with redmi note 4 . IMHO nothing wrong with it.
I myself just bought a redmi note 4 a week ago. I had the option of redmi note 5 pro, but I decided that 4 is better for my needs. 16:9 aspect ratio (yeah I don't like the 18:9 trend), physical navigation buttons, and camera that doesn't stick out of the phone are somethings that note 4 has and note 5 does not.

Custom roms for Redmi 5 Plus

Hey Guys. Sorry for my ignorance on the subject and haven't really found an answer yet, but I've been noticing all custom roms are for Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus? Does that mean, they're compatible with the Redmi 5 Plus? Or are they referring to Note 5 and Note 5 Plus? Thanks!
There is no Redmi Note 5 plus. Redmi note 5 is called Redmi 5 plus in China.
Redmi 5 Plus is called as Redmi Note 5(SD 625) in INDIA....
REDMI NOTE 5(SD 636) is Called as Redmi Note 5 Pro in India....
Fantastic guys, thank you! That totally clarified the confusion. We have Redmi 5 Plus and Note 5 Pro in Pakistan.

The best way to avoid confusion , ‘Vince' stands for Redmi note 5(india) and whyred for Redmi note 5 pro(India).
Great I feel I graduated again today lol.

Please recommend a good phone for Rs. 10000 for rooting with great custom ROMs?

I am looking for a cheap phone for rooting purposes as well as installing custom ROMs. I have boiled the choices down to 3 phones.
1. Redmi Note 7s
2. Mi A2
3. Redmi 7
I like Redmi Note 7s a lot. But there probably isn't a thread on this phone on XDA. Are the Indian Note 7s and the global Note 7 the same phone? Are they both codenamed Lavender? Basically, can I run ROMs designed for Lavender on a Note 7s?
If not, should I go for Mi A2? Redmi 7 does not appear to have a lot of ROMs.
Should I consider other phones for this purpose?
Sorry if this question sounds like a noob, this is my first time. Thanks in advance for your help.
