(Info) Redmi note 6 pro's ROM on Redmi Note 5 pro - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Flashed the Redmi Note 6 Pro's system.img/vendor.img, nothing else, booted and runs quite well. did this just as a test to see if Xiaomi had improved the camera's algorithm, they both use the same main Samsung modules.
Things that don't work:
Wifi
Front cam
Possibly it'll also boot if you flash the Note 6 pro's boot.img but didn't have time to test.

How to use Wifi and Hotspot at the same time?

On my previous device, the Redmi Note 5 Pro, wifi and hotspot could be kept turned on simultaneously. This was built in for Oreo, but needed a patch for Pie.
I have tried using the same patch on my Redmi Note 7 Pro, but I cannot seem to turn this feature on. I know the device should be capable of doing this, and I've also seen a video on youtube where the device is doing this. But they used the same patch to make it work.
I have tried on Xiaomi.eu ROMs as of yet, with Peter's TWRP. Latest MIUI 10 and 11 were tested and neither worked. Can anyone help?

Flashing & Booting Android 11 Beta 1 GSI (Pixel)

Hey guys, hope you are all doing well. I've been wanting to try the Android R Beta 1 GSI (by Erfan) on our OnePlus 6. However, the ROM did go bast the splash screen only to get stuck on boot animation. I think there's some issue with the vendor/boot/vbmeta. I am using OOS 10.3.3 files to do this.
If anyone could help here, it would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Did you resize the partrition before flashing R beta??.i tried one with PD2 but the pin ran out quickly,on PD3 that did not have signal
You should back to Android 10.and wait for oneplus 6 update to Android 11
Hey, I booted R B1 port by Erfan on my 6T, here's the process:
I flashed Lineage OS on both slots (I was using OOS 10.3.2 as base), wiped everything except vendor, and then I flashed the R img on both slots using TWRP + the permissiver zip.
FOD doesn't work of course (Maybe OP6 users have a little bit more luck and the capacitive sensor works, who knows)
Camera works (Tested with Gcam MJL, stock cam crashes)
Brightness is broken (Stuck at max level)
Flashlight doesn't work
Sound works
RIL works
Performance is horrible, lags and freezes everywhere

Working GSI ROMs on Mi Note 10 Lite / toco

As the title says, here's a list of some GSI's i have tested so far... but first for some story.
Bought the phone in summer, it's quite nice but has its own issues like no kernel source BUT since we can unlock the device and actually play around, oh boy it has been fun.
On the course of few hours and many downloads later I have a small list of GSI's that worked!
Every GSI I have mentioned REQUIRE device specific patch(es)!!!
For that you have to root.
----------------------WORKING GSI's-------------------------
BlissROM - It boots and functions quite fast
Cons: no included Gapps
Flashing any system editing patch results in "Phone is booting" homescreen.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/treblerom/files/BLESS/2020.09.21/
3.5 jack, VoLTE, Bluetooth, ComboFix patches are required, flash with Magisk manager
DO NOT USE FixLagSmooth
HavocOS 3.7 and 3.6 - Work and can be daily driven
3.6 requires FixLagSmooth patch
MUST root and apply all linked patches (don't use FixLagSmooth on 3.7, you can but no need)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...rom-how-to-install-android-10-gsi-mi-t4126223
AOSP Android 10 based - Also does work and requires patching
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...rom-how-to-install-android-10-gsi-mi-t4126223
HydrogenOS Android 10 - Works
Has few bugs
No Google services
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/gsi/HydrogenOS/
----------------------COMMUNITY REPORTED GSI's-------------------------
Android 11 GSI - Reported to be functional by HumptyPotato47, thanks mate!
No Gapps as of now NikGapps exist for Android 11, search XDA for it!
Requires more testing...
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases/tag/v300.f
----------------------MAYBE WORKING GSI's-------------------------
OxygenOS 10 GSI - Seems to work.. sorta
First boot after exiting fastboot causes the phone to reboot
Second boot will loop
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/gsi/OxygenOS/
----------------------NON FUNCTIONAL GSI's-------------------------
You tell me
...I did find a very nice list of GSI ROMs to try out more, here's the link:
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
----------------------FLASHING GSI-------------------------
If you test one then don't hesitate with replying which one, about the experience, bugs and how you installed it.
My method of installing was this:
1. Make sure to have the new adb commandline that supports fastbootd mode
2. Drop the GSI .img file in /adb directory for ease
3. Make sure you're running MIUI with unlocked bootloader and USB debugging enabled
3.5 MAKE SURE you get a GSI ROM with Gapps as existing TWRP isn't fully functional
4. GSI you should have must be AB partition!!!​
Once all set then follow the next commands
>adb reboot bootloader
>fastboot -w
>fastboot reboot fastboot
>fastboot erase system
>fastboot flash system "GSI-ROM-name-without-quotes".img
>fastboot reboot bootloader
>fastboot reboot​
----------------------SETTING UP GSI-------------------------
Once all that is complete it should boot, if not then that specific GSI does not work.
Also a thing worth mentioning! Whenever I boot this phone to fastbootd Windows keeps forgetting what driver it was which requires
few extra clicks in device manager to set it up for fastbootd use. Including an image with simple to follow instructions if you have the same issue.
>fastboot boot twrp.img
Once in TWRP you should be able to access internal storage with your computer, drag Magisk.zip over and flash. Don't forget to wipe cache!
If it boots normally then root was successful, now apply the linked patch and reboot once again. Since we are playing with GSI:
Head to Settings
Find Phh Treble Settings
Misc features
Check Disable audio effect. -- DISABLE IT AFTER PATCHING!!!​
IMPORTANT!!! I only tested Havoc and Bliss for a long period, IF one of my mentioned GSI's or others require more patches then I have linked headphone jack and Bluetooth audio patches too.
Combo fix should do the trick thought so your mileage may vary.
----------------------HELP US-------------------------
IF you find more working GSI's then tell us and I will make sure to add them to the main post so it won't get clogged under other comments!

Bliss ROM GSI
As only a day or two have passed I already encountered few issues.
> You cannot remove screenshot sounds, even when fully muted
> Data drain is something interesting I've noticed, consumption compared to MIUI is higher.
> When using the gesture navigation it is a bit buggy when using quick side swipe for multitasking.
Positive notes!
> It is stupid fast
> Battery life is good
> GCam is amazing
> 99% of the customization options work perfectly
> Fast charging modes and such work perfectly
Neutral stuff...
> No FOD, thanks for closed source
> whenever you take a picture or a screenshot and have Blutetooth audio connected, it pauses and plays out loud via speaker. No music leaks out

Sad truth but won't stop others from working on it. Eventually we might get a kernel source

Havoc OS and Bliss ROM are both quite stable, albeit with Bliss you don't get Gapps which is a huge bummer to most users.
Personally I just installed MicroG services and use Aurora store with anonymous "account".
When I tried to flash Gapps with TWRP I ended up soft bricking ROM so it was required to restore stock and try again. Of course there's no need if you can still use fastbootd.

FOD is not working as the driver sources are not public, reverse engineering is not possible too afaik. Everything else works.
Should i send this phone back to Amazon?
Seriously, last night i bought it, thinking about to install some custom rom, but if there are no developers caring of it, i might returb the phone to the seller...
IMO MIUI EU is better then GSI roms. Everything works. Got rid of most chinese crap. You can use Magisk.
Have nice features (MIUI in general). The only thing i dont like -mine turns on WIFI byitself dotn know how it happens... but it happens when i sleep. china collecting logs?

Literally the main reason I made this post is to help others who are interested to use GSI ROM's on their devices. I do agree that MIUI has some decent features and I did use Xiaomu.eu before but it was so buggy. In the end I love customizing the device however I like it so MIUI is just not for me. Either way I might try to negotiate with Amazon to get a refund as touch and Bluetooth problems still persist. Fun fact, on Bliss the edge detection is pretty good and not as aggressive or straight out bad.

Actually there are plenty of people ready to build ROMs for Toco (Mi Note 10 Lite) and Tucana (Mi Note 10) but there just isn't any kernel source available. Making things worse is the cancelled release of Toco in India and we know that they are one of the biggest Android ROM builders next to Russians. No one there is gonna import a device like this because better phones for money exist. If you don't like it then yeah I recommend returning otherwise give GSI a try for now and see what happens.
You won't lose warranty as there is no E-fuse like on Samsung phones so locking bootloader and flashing back to stock is enough.
Is anyone try oos gsi ?

The mentioned Mi Note 10 Lite for India was supposed to be called Mi 10i or something like that. It quickly disappeared and is not happening.
Of course I might be wrong by this date but looking for now there is no 10i, only speculation videos and threads.
Mi Note 10 Lite for India would've been code named "tocoin", same hardware and everything else so just a rebadge in old Xiaomi fashion... :laugh:

Hello, I am currently using Xiaomi.eu based on MIUI 12 and I would like to know how to flash HAVOC OS GSI. Should I flash back to Global Rom then flash the GSI as indicated? Answer is greatly appreciated.

Question Is there a way to install custom ROM on Redmi Note 9Pro Joyeuse?

I am really struggling... I accidentally installed TWRP recovery suited for 9S Curtana, it kinda works, even managed to root my phone, the problem is it is failing to mount some essential partitions like System, etc... I cannot install any other TWRP recovery via adb , the one I mentioned I installed via some kind of installer...
Moreover I kinda doubt now that even if I succeed I'll manage to find a proper ROM zip file... oh what a head ache...
I know all of this sounds like a bloody mess and it is...
I probably should start everything over again...
I managed to restore stock ROM but I can not even boot into recovery anymore I should probably flash something once again.....
By the way how do I know that mine is Joyeuse? I know I bought it in Europe... is that a clear indication?
Sorry for the mess, I have exhausted my mental resources today...
i can only answer your last question, joyeuse has 64 mp camera while curtana has 48 mp camera, you can see it on the back of your phone, below the camera
Yes there is a costum rom for redmi note 9 pro (joyeuse) Xiaomi.eu rom.
Installation:
Install it from windows cmd given extracted folder of rom.

Stock camera app not working

Hello,
I got a big issue on my Mi 10 Ultra, the stock camera is not wanting to work anymore.
It's black only and then refuses to launch (see screenshot attached).
I've tried third party apps but quality is not as good and I can't use all the camera modules. I've bought the 10 Ultra for it's cameras and really want to keep using it. (I do a lot of macrophotography and the 10 Ultra is amazing for this but only on the wide angle module.)
Did someone encountered the same issue ?
I've tried installing GCam but I do not managed to install apks. Theres an issue during the package analysis... (I've tried all GCam apks I could find here.)
I'm on stock EU OS with TWRP and I just activated root to try to solve the issue.
Sorry for bad english and french screenshots
EDIT: Every camera is working in the CIT hardware tests, I think it's software but I resetted the phone and nothing changed.

If the code name is CAS,there are chinesse firmware only.
maybe try that
Use this tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flash-tool-guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
Unroot before and dont relock the bootloader.

I got the Xiaomi.EU ROM as it was shipped with. It has a TWRP recovery from when I rooted it and got Magisk installed.
My MIUI 12 version is V12.0.15.0.QJJCNXM (stable).

I understand this is a tutorial to change my ROM, which is not what I'm searching for as the ROM works really well. Plus I only see the CAS on this thread's links which is the chinese ROM.
Not sure what you meant.
My bootloader was locked all the time, I just unlocked it during my testing but it did not change anything.

Now in the tests, my 5x telephoto camera does not respond, so I think it's an hardware issue, but I don't think the camera is broken so I'd like to found people with the same experience.
I don't think changing the recovery will solve the problem.
Plus I like having TWRP

Flash this rom to be sure
Mi 10 Ultra ChinaStableFastbootV13.0.4.0.SJJCNXM
Just to be sure of something, I did a test. Thanks for answering all my messages but what I need and want now is info or a way to debunk the issue.
I wont flash a ROM in a language I don't understand on the phone I use every day just to test something.
I already tried resetting the phone (including dalvik cache iirc) and it did not change anything.
Plus I would need a PC and a flashing tool, this would take a lot of time...
Finally, the issue did not came with a ROM change, the actual ROM is stable.
Edit : I changed the camera module, everything works perfectly
According to my repair shop, Xiaomis are just unreliable.
