I don't have it right now, but I have ordered one. Meanwhile, check this thread from MIUI forum.
Keep us posted if you find any other working ROMs for Prime.
just launched in Indonesia, looking forward to have these info aswell
thanks
Tried several CM 12.1 based Roms and having troubles with calling. As soon as I dial a number, it shows call ended and I can't even place a call.
Please anyone help !!
AOSP 5.1.1 Rom
You could try this rom, if it works perfectly do let us know. I dont see a reason why it shouldn't. The box of the phone says redmi 2.

Hey Guys Some one Explain it on MiUI forums.....
As many of you are aware, Xiaomi released the Redmi 2 Enhanced Edition (or Pro Edition as it is known elsewhere) with 2GB RAM and 16GB Storage back in February. However the only model released was the HM2014813 China Mobile version. Funnily enough this phone fully supports global GSM/HSPA frequencies and even has better LTE band support as it works on both 1800 & 2600MHz across Europe and Asia. Not only that but many resellers are now selling this device to international customers.
Whilst Xiaomi has released other Redmi 2 versions across India, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia etc they are all based on the standard 8GB model with 1GB RAM. These are built off the China Unicom HM2014811 model and as a result the MIUI 6 Global ROM works across all of these versions. However previously when attempting to flash the Global ROM onto the 2014813 model, the installation would fail.
Initially most users and moderators believed this to be due to the difference in RAM across the models, with one having 1GB RAM and the other having 2GB RAM.
Some users though speculated that this actually wasnt the reason as the Xiaomi MI3 and Xiaomi MI4 share a ROM under the Cancro model name. This is despite a difference in RAM (2GB & 3GB respectively) and even a different processor (Snapdragon 800 and Snapdragon 801).
It was therefore believed that it had something to do with the different radio frequencies and LTE band support. I decided to take a closer look and recently I managed to get a hold of the Redmi 2 (2014813) Enhanced Edition. I started by downloading the latest fastboot ROMs available. Firstly I downloaded the fastboot ROM for the 2014813 model from Chinese MIUI webiste. This was version 6.5.2.0. I then dowloaded the latest Global fastboot ROM which was version 6.4.4.0 (as the 6.5.2.0 ROM hadnt been uploaded yet).
I extracted the TAR images fully and opened the flash scripts. In those I found the file corresponding to the cellular modem known as the NON-HLOS.bin. I thought that if I swapped the modem file from the Global ROM with the one in the 2014813 software, I would be able to successfully install the ROM via fastboot.
I tried it and it worked! I managed to get the ROM to fully install via fastboot on my Mac. I unplugged the device and set it up. Everything went through fine, even setting up my Google account. However the most important part to test was still left. The phone functionality. Did my modem swapping solution work?
I plugged in a T-Mobile SIM Card and straight away got HSPA+ signal! I tested with a telephone call and got crystal clear reception on both ends. I then turned off WiFi and tried the mobile data which worked fine. I have now tested every single part of the phone including Camera, Gyroscope, LED, Bluetooth, GPS, Compass and Loudspeaker. They are all working. The phone even shows 2GB RAM in the multitasking menu.
The only function not working is the OTA update. As the update zip will try to replace the modem, it will fail during installation. However this is very easy for Xiaomi to fix. All they need to do is provide a Global ROM for the 2014813 model with the correct modem which as seen is just a single file. They should easily be able to add a download link in each future update for the 2014813 model, both as fastboot/recovery packages and as an OTA zip. Hopefully they add this soon, especailly as more and more users are buying the Redmi 2 Enhanced Edition. Other than that everything else works.
i have flashed redmi2 prime using remix rom i am getting red screen on my phone please help me further
Flyme 7 Coming to Older Phones Like Meizu PRO 5.. to see click here :fingers-crossed:
It's good news, currently only 4.7% of mobile phones have Oreo.
The trouble is until Flyme gets stable
And if there are new drivers maybe someone (@faust93) is able to port it to Resurrection Remix 6, which is still in beta on most phones
You just have to wait and all the pieces are put together
They just released the Meizu 15 with Android 7.1.2. and Flyme OS 7, does not even come with Oreo.
I'm very disappointed!
Meizu is one year behind in the design and software of its mobile phones. They pass the fashions without offering anything.
I expected them to catch up, but nothing. He's going to win a bad name forever.
They will end up putting the sign closed for vacations, which we already know what it means.
Above, they do not pay Google for having Google Play well. The International Version is a fake, they aren't Certified
And they also have blocked the bootloader so you can not install any ROM (there are none in the Meizu Pro 6, Pro 7).
My next mobile will not be a Meizu is clear. In 2015, they competed with Xiaomi, I thought that they would get over them but they have chosen very bad strategies, such as making several versions (China, the International), moving away from Google, problems with apps, very similar designs for all their phones, prices that are too high compared to the competition , many software failures in Flyme, without Android updates ...
Luckily I have it with RR and Android 7.1.2 (in 3G and without finger print but this does not matter at all). And I'm happy with him !!
You do not need another Android if you have it well customized (Substratum, Exposed, Magisk Manager ..).
But it would be cool to have RR with Oreo..
Flyme 7 is out since 22.04.18 and IS NOT BASED on Oreo
It's again based on Nougat 7.0
I've tried 7.8.4.22 A, not soo bad, some little bugs with camera and other things but overall 's good
in 2022 i bet they are going to have oreo
or meizu will die
Meizu has disappointed me so much that I bought another mobile (not from Meizu). I have endured so much thanks to the Faust93 ROM but I could not do it anymore, it was a little on a whim, more than other things
Meizu was downgrading ever since 2015 and their strategy to focus on the Chinese market with dozens of new devices every year led to abandoning all their previous flagships and lack of focus on software updates. Obviously providing regular up-to-date upgrades does not bring in too much revenue compared to the new devices ranging from budget to flagships that bring in millions. This fact showed their real face - hunt for money rather than for creating an outstanding product and attracting even more customers. Pro 5 is my first Meizu phone and is definitely the last one. Even with running RR 7.1.2 and fully and smoothly functioning hardware, I do really lack fingerprint option and I don't like having any sacrifices on the device. which once used to be a flagship and still has pretty powerful insides to date. I like trying different roms and flashing firmware, but for the testing purposes, not because I am forced to in order to have more or less up-to-date Android version and properly working Google Services and Play Store. This is just ridiculous and disgusting.
Did someone tried flyme 7, this version 7.8.5.8?
hi everybody.
I'm surfing the internet.
https://www.getdroidtips.com/flyme-os-7-meizu-pro-5/
I came across this site.
I downloaded and installed the Meizu pro5 Flyme 7.0.2.0A from the https://www.flyme.cn/firmwarelist-23.html#3 link provided on the site. I got backup of my phone. I've installed wipe cache. And it works.
I wanted to share it with you.
Notes:
- I had a flyme 6.3 rom.
- I installed vipe cache from the first installation. sim network did not work. vipe cache cleaning and installed all functions worked.
-Flyme has added facial recognition and works very nicely.
- Press the power button. I installed the version uplink type. As described in the first link. (https://www.getdroidtips.com/flyme-os-7-meizu-pro-5/)
-I've been using it for two days. very nice. Flyme7 is the original system board and stable.
- Before loading, change the ro.product.locale = zh-CN line in the zip file (update.zip/system/build.prop) to -> ro.product.locale = en-US.
- Bad news - I use English. Problems can occur in other languages.
The pro5 really got android 8.0!?
Maybe I should (after switching to the global version a year ago) back to the chinese roms...
Are the google apps all working? Incl. contacts etc?
Thanks already for the update!
pro 5 now is with oreo??
i´m speechless lol
Unfortunately nope, Oreo was only a dream for us

Hi all,
Since it seems there are not updates coming for the global version of pro5 anymore I am considering to switch to the Chinese ROM.
Is it possible to install the latest Chinese version to a GLOBAL Pro5?
If it is a more complex process, do you have instructions a link that shows how to do it?
Thanks a lot!
Jan

i think you have to change the product label to chinese ( i tried without doing so and i failed miserably )
it's depend on what recovery you use to update, stock or TWRP. If with TWRP, you need to replace bootloader and recovery in zip to be unlocked bootloader and custom recovery.
Hi All!
I am using Redmi Note 4 (Indian version) since March 2017.
I updated to MIUI 10.1.1.0 through system update 2 days ago.
Earlier, my phone ran on MIUI 9.6 Global | 9.6.2.0 (NCFMIFD).
My phone is not rooted.
Like many others, I installed Google Camera as I was unhappy with the camera app provided by Xioami. I have been using the version Google Camera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2 v8.3b for quite some time.
To install Google Camera, I unlocked the bootloader. After installation, I again locked the bootloader just to be safe.
There were no issues with the Google Camera app and I was happy with it.
However, after update to MIUI Global 10.1 | 10.1.1.0 Stable (NCFMIFI), the Google Camera stopped working. All I can see is black screen, when I run the Google Camera app. I am very disappointed with the update. I've searched a lot and realized that Google camera doesn't work in MIUI 10. Is there a work around for Google Camera on MIUI 10.1?
Camera2 probe app displays 'Level_3' under 'Hardware level support category'. 'Full', 'Limited' & 'Legacy' are all marked as 'X'.
Is it fine?
As per what I read online, I need to downgrade to MIUI 9 to be able to use Google Camera app.
Now, I have a doubt as to which version of MIUI 9 I need to download.
The official website of MIUI says the latest version of MIUI for Redmi Note 4 as V9.5.3.0.MBFMIFA (MIUI9), whereas the MIUI version on my phone prior to the update was 9.6 Global | 9.6.2.0 (NCFMIFD).
Which version of MIUI 9 do I need to download for a successful downgrade from MIUI 10.1??
Also, I read that the entire 64 GB of my phone storage would get erased during the downgrade.
So, is there a way to backup and restore all my phone data?
Request for kind help so that I can get back my phone to the desired configuration.
You need to search for a fastboot rom for it. either 9.6.3.0 images
Download 9.6.3.0
The one you saw I think is for Nickel(MTK Variant) yours is SD variant
U should download rom for Redmi Note 4X which is Indian variant!
Thank you. This worked.
Unfortunately, the mi backup & reset tool in MIUI didn't take the backup of my contacts and some other apps. However, I exported my contacts as a safety measure before flashing and it saved me.
From last 3-4 weeks Xioami not providing regular weekly update for Redmi Note 5 plus for global beta users.
Even low ended phones gets update weekly..... This is very bad behaviour from Xioami....
I think it's best to stay at "reliable" rather than "bleeding edge" OS because that's all you need. This is my very personal opinion btw

1.- There's no "Redmi note 5 Plus". Do your research and define if you have a Redmi 5 Plus (Note 5 in India, codename vince) , or a Note 5 (Note 5 Pro in India, codename whyred). This forum is for vince. If you have whyred, go to its forum and post there.
2.- Xiaomi always focuses it's development teams mostly to the china ROMs. Chinese developer ROM is constantly updated and then some of these freatures are ported to the global roms, but even in chinese developer roms updates are not always weekly. Why do you need a weekly update? You need a new freature every week? Do you want an unstable system or a build full with untested freatures?
3.- Xiaomi "uses" users that are running developer roms (betas) to test new freatures, bugfixes and to get feedback. They (and almost all OEMs that provide soak tests, previews or beta roms) only update these branches with new builds or OTAs when there's something to test or fix, and internal tests (fast rings or closet betas) have been successful.
4.- The lack of beta OTAs doesn't mean that your device is abandoned or is lacking support. It isn't equivalent to bad behaviour. You're not entitled to weekly updates, you don't even need them.
If you need constant updates or new stuff i suggest you to use an unofficial ROM like Xiaomi.eu
I am in beta global ROM

Actually I am global beta ROM user. I got weekly updates. But from Nov 22 I not am getting any beta update. Also checked on mi community there is no update for Vince device. They are releasing weekly updates to lower version. Eg. Redmi note 4, note 3....
My device code name is Vince..
Sorry for bad English.
Hi, my mi10 is currently running global v12.0.6 QJBMIXM stable. I have now started to get an OTA message saying v12.2.1.0 RJBMIXM is ready to d/load.
I have read on here some horror stories about the 12.2 version in general, so my question is: Have Xiaomi sorted the bugs in v12 yet ? or should I just keep clear of this 12.2 version altogether.
I also read on some other sites that Xiaomi are telling users not to d/load 12.2. because its so buggy. If this is the case then why are they still pushing it OTA
I returned to Android 10. The Android 11 version currently has many bugs and many software is not compatible. It is recommended to wait 1 month or 2 before updating.

Thanks,,, thats what I was thinking, I've heard a lot about Xiaomi's Android 11 & none of it good. Its just daft that they're pushing an OTA version with so many Known bugs in it.
As far as I know, there were two versions of 12.2.2 OTA updates - one that was quickly revoked and the second one which is suppose to be fixed. If you mention the problems and bugs, it would be nice to give some precise infor for other users to understand what actually is not working and to decide.
I am personally using a XEU ROM, and am getting ready to move to A11 build, after many users confirmed that it's running fine.
12/20/10 is not good.
The gestures don't work well. After exiting google maps, the gestures generally do not react. You have to put the phone to sleep and wake it up again.
The battery wears out faster.
Any problems with charging when the phone is turned off.
I do not recommend it, it's better to install earlier versions, but application cloning and OK Google do not work in them
Mate, you're talking about a weekly beta build. @markcoopz was asking about last stable build.

Did your 12.2.2.0 OTA say if it was a stable or a stable beta.
My 12.2.1.0 OTA says that its a "Limited release for pilot testers". Thats why I was asking if its worth the hassle. If I ignore this update, will I automatically get the next the next ver. or will the OTA system expect me to install this 1 ist.

I have same rom. No problems.
On android 11 both stock and miuimix version is there a decent twrp for it? I have the one chinese variant from littleturtle that works somewhat and none of the other variants of twrp even boot to twrp on 11 they all go back to fastboot. If you do fastboot boot command you get a black screen. The littleturtle build boots on reboot but not on fastboot boot... does not show data to even be able to mount, will flash both stock and miuimix roms and canary magisk but is quirky.

It says Miui12.2.2.0 Stsble
Have the global edition UMI R was solid as long as I did not try to root it,, TWRP (little turtle edition) was buggy and would flash but was limited on what it would do, had to use canary magisk and it was buggy, LR TWRP would loop if you flashed on R but would boot if you waited a while.. literally have a black screen and think its bricked then it comes up... So I downgraded to Q (used MiFlash) was able to flash working twrp (LR edition) and magisk (latest) then went to miuimix Q also with same TWRP and Magisk. Waiting for development on R as I the workarounds for R for the most part did not work on Miui global R. Would reboot phone sometimes ok others to fastboot. Even with Q some reboots go to fastboot and TWRP is still there and working but it will say no OS installed. Dirty flash over it and it comes back like nothing happened even current magisk persisted. Love the speed and phone until it does this. I did not see a great deal of better features with R over Q to justify continued effort until more development occurs. Still not risking Viper4Android on it, Wavelet does work though and offers some of what is in Viper4Android.
I have the global edition and I am on 12.6.0. Had an ota a few weeks ago and went to download but it comes up not found. Now when I check updates I don't get any new one. I assume they have pulled these updates?
I received 12.2.4 EEA this morning. Seems better than 12.2.1 but fonts don't work anymore
My phone is still on MIUI V12.2.2.0 RJBMIXM, i am facing so many issues in this version, system errors, miui crashs, application crashes, cant share anything between applications, and i have been waiting from beginning of December for a new version to be released, but no luck untill now, i wish if i can downgrade to MIUI 12 A10 based
