Codename for the device.
I'm on. Miui 10 developer rom 27th update on vince. I have flashed region fix with twrp treble, eventhough default region appears China, I have to manually select India after each reboot. Any solution?

I've done the installation through orange fox and that issue didn't persisted anymore so, you could try that too.

Just got this phone after some years off android and I find myself being confused by so many terms. Would love to start flashing roms like I did 5yrs ago.
Can I know the process to follow? (already unlocked my bootloader)
Thanks in advance

you can use xiaomi tool kit (search on google) to flash any custom recovery. then flash a good rom (currently miui 10 is best for me.) flash magisk if you want root stuffs or go with flashing lazy flasher after miui rom. reboot, done!

I have downloaded miui 10 global fastboot rom. What is orange fox? I already unlocked bootloader..
Hi @ridersam
Need some advices from you. I am interested in installing Custom Rom on my Redmi 5 Plus. The one I am referring to is Android P Vince (already got hold of the step by step instructions). My concerns :-
1. Waiting to unlock my bootloader in the next few days (Redmi 5 Plus) with root too and to install Red Wolf Recovery (fastboot to install the standard twrp). The default is OrangeFox-R6-Beta-vince.zip recovery
2. From standard twrp to flash Red Wolf Recovery instead of OrangeFox recovery. Can I do that?
3. Going to install Android P Vince custom rom in Redmi 5 Plus (serial of steps instruction from the devs). Done and reboot as my daily driver.
4. Can this Red Wolf Recovery be used like normal twrp recovery for other custom rom or backup and/or restore not only Redmi 5 Plus?
5. Through fastboot I can also install Red Wolf Recovery, right! Do I have to rename the file like recover.img rather the actual name RedWolf-Unofficial-vince-2.img? Another method to install recovery.
Thank you
I have a question
Does the aosp ROMs, pixel experience and such are using the open sources of Vince that Xiaomi released months ago?

[ASK] [MIUI 10] Install unknown sources apk
I've installed MIUI 10 via updater app today, following a factory reset from MIUI 9.6.4. I didn't use fastboot method bcs I'm just lazy lol.
Today i tried installing Sony Music App apk which I had on my previous MIUI.
After finished installing, the screen says "App not installed"
Any idea how to work around this? The install permission setting of unknown sources is confusing as you need to allow each app you would like to open apk from. And no, this is not because screen filter app which restricts you from pressing the install button, I don't use such app and i get to press the install button.
Then i tried enabling it from all my file explorer app, even manually enabling the PackageInstaller system app to install from unknown sources. The problem persisted so i try downloading other apk from another mirror site, and nothing is working.
I'm currently on the 8.8 update of MIUI 10.
Help appreciated.

Yes, you absolutely can. Even in ARP3 you wouldn't have any problem. Only ARP4 is a headache for us. So be careful not to upgrade your bootloader to ARP4.

If you have twrp recovery then just flash 9.6.2.0 fw less rom
Hi. I have a Redmi Note 5 (pro) Global version. I hate MIUI 10 too and want to roll back to 9.5.19 (which seems less buggy than 9.6.x) . Got the ROM from a great thread from miui dot com which I can't post being new here
The updater app tells me that I can't flash older versions
Recovery mode doesn't even offer flashing ROMs.
I can't unlock the bootloader now (have tried once, now have to wait 360hrs to try again??)
Am I stuck with MIUI 10?
THanks

You can roll back to Miui 9.6.4.0 with no problem from Miui10.

Redmi note 8 randomly restarts

I am running pixel experience (Android 10) on my redmi note 8 (ginkgo).
The problem started recently. I think it has to do something with the audio because I noticed that the restart is triggered when there is a sudden audio spike like a call ringtone or something. Is it a bug?. What can I do now?
What are some of the best stable ROM out there. Any recommendations?

8.7.0 on Xda
8.7.2 on TG

I am not a power user. Just wanted a change from buggy MIUI 10.
PE was kinda better for me than the factory ROM
I am going to try your recommendation
Resurrection Remix 8.7.0​Clean Flash right?

Clean flash of course and flash DFE to stay decrypted
you can backup app+data (if you are still on PE) with O&backupX (root)
and restore them after if you don't want to config every app ...
@loopypalm Sorry, I didn't get what are you suggesting?
What is PE?
Change ROM, Use RROS (Do you mean, when we take the phone to the service center ask them to replace ROM?)
Please clarify

PE = Pixel experiance = i never suggested that rom, i suggested RRos (Resurrection Remix)

i mean wipe the official rom and replace it with RRos (you can do everything yourself)
@loopypalm sorry I am little illiterate in android world.
What is RRos?
How can I install it?
Can I install it on Redmi Note 8?
Is this a reversible process just in case something bad happens to the phone?

Yes, you can download the official miui and flash it
Last thing, there are many ROMs available here https://c.mi.com/global/miuidownload/index
Would "Redmi Note 10 Pro" from would work for "Redmi Note 8" ?
What if during the flashing process phone become brick (bricking)?

Those are "Fastboot" Roms
it's better to look for recovery flashable to keep the custom recovery

Even Redmi Note 8T will brick Redmi Note 8 because the firmware is differant

If you follow the steps carefully it will not brick

There are threads here with custom recoveries for Lisa - please take a look and find/read.
Hint, SHRP or Fox - but they work fine with A11 (MIUI 12.5)
There is no custom recovery that works properly with A11 (hence with MIUI 13 as on your screenshot).
This is generally a known situation - you can go to TWRP.me and find what they say about support for A12 (all other custom recoveries take essentials from TWRP and mainly repack to different UI, add some UI features and so)
To unbrick, flash the stock recovery (hopefully, you will not need to use MiFlash to flash the whole stock firmware)
Generally be careful, do not install custom recovery, ROM, etc for Renoir to Lisa. Phones are 'similar' but they have different chipsets
