realme q and realme 5 pro have the same rom?

hi, I found the realme q on the net at around 140 euros, a fantastic price. The problem is that the realme q is only in Chinese and English, is it possible to put the rom of realme 5 pro in realme q? thank you all

Sure it is. They're the exact same device just realme Q is rebranded so they could sell it cheaper. Of course you'll probably need unlocked bootloader to flash global rom(Realme 5 pro) on your realme Q and according to rumors they'll release source code in this december. That means bootloader unlock and root will be possible in this December. After that you'll be able to flash global rom on your realme q. Btw I ordered a realme q as well instead a realme 5 pro because it was cheaper. I'm not bothered by the English language.
Edit.: By intensive testing and some developer help I've discovered that Realme Q has smaller system partition size + different codename (RMX1971 [Indian Realme 5 Pro]) while Realme Q (RMX1971CN) thus this forbids flashing Indian firmware of Realme 5 Pro on Realme Q and vice versa. At least of 2019.10.19. Same goes for Lineage OS since system partition size is 4096 mb on Realme Q while decrypted and decompressed Lineage OS weights 5+ GB.

oh my goodness

price is a too good man. I hope at least TWRP and ROOT will be available for this device. I'm gonna order one soon.

You should be able to flash Magisk already. I've successfully unlocked bootloader via flashboot. It's just that I messed up because I installed faulty, test version twrp that messed up my system, now I can't boot. But you should be able to flash Magisk via fastboot.

Okay

i've ordered one. Specs are too good for this price.
So there is no way to install Original Firmware again?

Yes there is. It happens the realme q fastboot.7z file was corrupted when I first downloaded it that's why I couldn't decompress it to get the flashable .img files. I've been working now from 5 am to 9 am to flash them and now my device works with stock firmware. However as soon as I modify recovery by replacing it with either realme q or realme 5 pro twrp recovery it won't boot since it detects boot modification. Same goes for Magisk root. All I achieved in the past 4 days of intensive testing ane flashing was unlocked bootloader but I can't flash root or custom rom either. It's understandable since we're in a very early period of phone release but I'm envious of Indian users who are already able to have Lineage os + Magisk on their devices.

But both devices have the same model RMX1971.
I just hope there will be some way to install realme 5 pro custom ROMs on it as well.

Sadly no. It happens Realme 5 Pro has codename rmx1971 while Realme q has the codename rmx1971cn thus this causes complications in flashing. We only got to know this recently.

Hi would it be better to but the 5 pro rather than the Q? I dont do custom roms though, can i have your input?

Buy Realme 5 Pro. Realme Q supports lesser outside of China 3g and 4g bands. Global and indian version support more.

Is the difference only on 3g and 4g supports? I live in the philippines and we only have 4g at most

Mostly. Realme Q (China) and Realme 5 Pro (global) have different firmware so updates may differ. They tend to at least, I noticed. Also developer support is bending towards global way more than Realme Q. I've realme Q and overall I'm really happy with it. However I'm annoyed by Color OS for it's limiting me in my so well known freedom that I had on Pixel Experience or closer-to-stock roms. Sometimes settings are reset by the Color OS system for example when I set a different notification sound for an app the system resets it to default within a hour. When you set animation speed to higher or lower Color OS will reset that too to default. Also the RAM management is horrible on Color OS. Aside that it's a very fast system, looks good, feels smooth, battery is fine.

Ooof that reset of color os is a real bummer. I hope that future updates will address that ram management, especially the new announcement of color os 7. I'd probably tilt to realme Q as it is much cheaper than the global version. This is considering a month from now and theyre still the same price. I'd go with the global if the price comes down (hopefully but i wouldnt bet on it coz realme 3 pro's price stayed the same for the last ~6 months) . Thank you so much for your inputs, it puts me at ease knowing that i wont regret the overall satisfaction of owning Realme Q/5pro

hi.i have realme 5 pro with global rom and i cant unlock bootloader.it is possible to flash indian rom from realme q and unlock bootloader?thanks

Anyone try to repartition Realme Q exactly the same with Realme 5 Pro?
Now we had TWRP, root, ADB... I think we can convert Q to 5 Pro easily.
Maybe these guides help:

Did you try to repartition Realme Q? sorry but I don't have a device, I'm just going to buy it.
I think we should do these steps:
1. First use TWRP to backup all partitions to SD Card.
2. Use ADB to get the Partitions Table of Realme 5 Pro.
3. Use ADB to repartition Realme Q to 100% the same with 5 Pro.
4. Restore all partitions backed up before using TWRP.
5. Flash Stock Realme 5 Pro ozip file using TWRP.
If successful, we'll convert Q to 5 Pro.

ZTE Axon 10 Pro 5G a2020n2

Was wondering if anyone is getting anywhere with the A2020N2 or A2020N3 chinese variants of the Axon 10 Pro? I can't seem to find anything aside from the 4g models. I did read a post in my travels that 'Unjustified Dev' was going to release a bootloader unlock for the A2020N2 awhile back but can't find anything more on it.
The phone is great and I was able to uninstall most of the Chinese bloatware but would love to see root so I can push the limits of this phone.
Some info would be greatly appreciated whether it is good news or bad news.
Thanks.

Seem to be making some headway on this.
If you go to this website and translate Chinese to English it looks like someone was successful in unlocking the bootloader and installing Magisk to the a2020n2
https://pianshen.com/article/70191805055/
The claim the tool only works on Android 9 and unfortunately I have already flashed to Android 10 b16 and can't seem to find a way to roll back. I have tried flashing the older zips from the ZTE website to no avail.
If anyone has any other suggestions on rolling back the firmware to Android 9 I would appreciate it.
I found the tool they were talking about on androidfilehost
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962591021
You can only find the firmware for this phone if you to to the chinese site and translate it.
https://www.ztedevices.com/cn/supports/zte-a2020n2-pro/
Anyone on Android 9 that wants to give this a shot? I would recommend doing a full backup so if anything goes wrong you can go back into DFU mode and reflash the original files if you are considering doing this.

Hy! Where did you found the Android 10 update for the 5G variant? Can you send us a link with the update?

Did you actually read the post above... It literally tells you how to find the firmware.

Yes! But the only version that I see it's the v2.2. Is that Android 10? Cause the release note field is empty.

yes, v2.2.0 b16 is android 10. v2.0.0 is android 9.

Hi to all!
I have the A2020N3 version. Someone can explain me what's the difference with the A2020N2 versione?
I'm still on android 9 and I'm wondering if it worths to upgrade to Android 10...some suggestions?

Hey! I found this post but looks a little bit outdated... It's ir possible to update the A2020N3 to Android 10? Is the Axon 10 Pro 5G from Drei Austria.

I received Android 10 update for my A2020N3 (4.6 version), the phone flows like butter! Where I can find a changelog?

INSTALL TWRP AND ROOT X50 PRO 5G RMX2076 (INDIAN VERSION)

Hello Everyone,
I purchased Realme x50 pro 5g RMX2076 (Indian version). I want to know how to install TWRP and root the phone with all the things working (fingerprint etc).
I am Surprised there is no official TWRP or Rooting method, there is no Development at all No custom Recovery Either. This phone has the best Hardware at Quite Reasonable price compared to other flagship phones.
I want to know the easiest method as I don't know much technical details (Newbie).
I am coming from Redmi note 4 SD. There is more than enough Development in Xiaomi phones but no Development in Realme x50 pro 5g or some other Realme phones like X2 Pro.
I hope many developers will see this come to fix this. It's now been a long time.
Thanks.
Best Wishes

I am hoping for the same... TWRP and magisk can do wonders for this phone....

Hello, I have a Stock Indian to Global/EU ROM Flash Query.
Hi everyone, I am planning to buy this phone - Indian version with model number RMX2076. version I intend to purchase is 8GB | 128GB version.
I have a few doubts and need help & answers please.
I intend to flash the stock Indian Rom with EU/Global version of Stock Rom. I am doing this to activate more number of 4G and 5G bands available on this device on the EU/Global variant, as against fewer network bands available on stock Indian ROM version. source: https://www.gsmarena.com/realme_x50_pro_5g-10097.php
I would prefer to keep the boot-loader locked post the ROM Flash and get the rest of the phone working as stock. I prefer, the security of locked boot-loader, and would like all bank apps, UPI Payment apps and Google Pay app working.
My Queries are:
Can this be done on this device?.
Will the device receive regular OTA OS and security updates for the Global/EU ROM post the Flash?.
Are there hardware changes in Global version of this phone that I should be aware of, prior to this Global ROM flash on the Indian version RMX2076?.
any and all help appreciated. Thank you.

thank you, at least some one replied something. can you please explain a couple of problems faced and other phone suggestion are welcome. thanks again.

If you buy this phone Realme x50 pro you are very limited does not support widevine l1 if you want to watch Netflix in HD. After sale service is totally crap. As you can see there is no custom roms or anything else for this phone. I would advise you to buy Xiaomi instead of this phone.

Widevine L1 works fine!

Good luck
Unlock take 168 hours.(maybe not for the age).

I have chcecked an xaomi program and unlock supposed to be done with couple of seconds,but i have no slot on sim card (i have got this phone for free) SIM card is required because without cant add an xaomi account in developer options.
Already ordered,so when It come i will check it.
This phone will be as second one,just in case.
Daily im using s10e with cr droid installed.

On this one i will try Evolution x rom.
Used to have its on a3 2017 and was pretty good.
That xaomi is too large for me.s10e also.
A3 2017 was nice with dimessions ,but for now is inpossible to find an good compact smartfon.
Only an iphones ,but dont like IOS
