Any good roms for this device? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

So I'm planning on buying the Redmi Note 3 with 3gb of ram and the snapdragon processor. My question is, is there any good roms for this device? I hace checked the threads here and most people seem to have quite many problems with the few roms that exists.

There are some good ROMs like CM13 or RR, using RR since a few days and I have no problems.

I'm sure CyanogenMod Team is currently working on our device:

I did see that rom, it seems rather nice, but I read that camera isn't that good on the custom roms? Also it doesn't get any updates. Any news on a ASOP MM build?

So if I buy this phone, I'm pretty much stuck on LP. I don't like MIU at all I'm afraid.

Will Nougat roms bust our speakers ?

So I've been trying a number of Nougat Roms lately and have found curiously that all of (atleast the one based on strix cm base) have insane volume output (like 50% more at least from stock) through speakers. I was wondering if the devs did this knowingly or is it some software amplification hack which will eventually damage the speakers

This is how it used to be!! Atleast on MIUI ROMs. This is one of my favourite things of CM14, I no longer have to press my ear toward the speaker.
The reason for this is I think because TheStrix added back the MIUI LP edits to the kernel, so it's similar to MIUI kernel now. He mentioned this in the CM13 thread.
So yep, I'm pretty sure it's normal, and hey, enjoy it!!

Here, I was talking about this quote.
TheStrix said:
I have already moved on to cm-14.0 dev. You can follow it on CM gerrit: here
Also I have rebased kernel to N CAF tag and added back Xiaomi edits from LP release. (Camera, battery drivers are 100% from Xiaomi kernel release with no edits regarding adding/removing any new support)
Keep calm and wait for it
Also, wanted to know ov16880_f16v01a and ov16880_omida05 camera sensors are present on some devices too? Anyone with them here?
On CM, I just now added s5k5e8_z5e8yab thought it was the only one missing. If those two exist too on fewer RN3, let me know so that I can add support for those 2 sensors in CM.

Will the RN3 get support from devs for more custom roms?

So...
I currently have a Nexus 5 and I am was very close to buying the RN3. Now see the Nexus 5 provides stable pure android which I love so I dont need to flash custom roms on it. However I recently did that just to be able to get Android N. I've enjoyed my experience with custom roms so far. I'm using CM14 and I do like it even though it does seem just a little unstable and having a few bugs here and there.
I decided to upgrade to the RN3 because of the pure battery life offered by the N5 these days. I had decided that I would flash CM on top of it as soon as possible because I hate anything other than vanilla android. Now however, CM is dead. I have already done my fair bit of research to know that they are moving to Lineage now. I also read that the popular phones won't really be affected. However the RN3 isn't very popular. At least that's the idea in my head.
The point of this post is Will the RN3 receive the support popular phones would? Will I be able to have the latest and greatest in Android?
That is the one question which will affect my decision on whether to go for it or not. I think I need to make a decision by late this week on this so yeah..
Can any devs say that they plan on working on the RN3?
Is the RN3 as popular as the N5 was for the sake of development and stuff?
I plan on supporting the RN3 once I purchase one. However, I don't think it'll receive the large array of ROMs Nexus 5 has, but I think it'll get plenty of ROMs all the same.

You see, there are now much more RN3 users around the world. So, no need of worring about development.

Could you tell me where you downloaded your rom from and also link any guides you used?
How stable is the rom you use?

I have unlocked bootloader officially, tried most of the N roms available. As they are not quite stable as of now, using Xiaomi EU rom. It is debloated version of Miui based on China dev rom with weekly updates. Very Stable

I m using Aokp from 10 days with various custom kernel. Stable and fast. Only bug is the instable camera (using google camera apk mitigate it).
RN3 has miui roms, cm based roms and good development. Definitely it will be worth purchasing. Android file host shows 3to4 roms for RN3 daily.
Need some other roms except CM based.
If any devs port Color OS, Cool Ui, EMUI Etc...
It will be great.

Should i buy note 3 pro in 2017?

Hi guys
I want buy this device.
Is there a better choice at this price?
I want buy kenzo model. 16 Gb and 2 Ram
How can i understand that is kenzo?
Sorry for my bad english
Yeah it's still a very good choice, especially if you are into budget phones.
I would go with the Kate model however as it has LTE band 20 support, that helps a lot when traveling through (or living in) Europe (which I do).

Note that if you have goodix fp scanner, you may have problems with custom roms, but I believe someone already made a patch to make it work.

Development support is identical on both kenzo and kate models as they have identical hardware.
The only difference is the modem firmware, and given that none of the custom roms come bundled with a firmware package (that could potentially override your own firmware), that means that all roms that work on kenzo, will work equally well on kate.
Long story short, no development support difference between kenzo and kate. :good:

Not really, the only difference between Kate & Kenzo is the firmware for the modems. Kenzo has a better selection of cases and such but Kate has more bands that it supports. Kate is 2mm taller than Kenzo.

My Kate has the FPC102 one, works flawlessly.
If you're buying the phone, I would recommend going to the 3GB RAM version.
Honest suggestion:
I would recommend Redmi Note 4 (SD version). It'll gain the same (maybe little less/more) popularity like Note 3. It'll also have official Nougat update. So, there'll be bugless Nougat custom ROMs. While, Nougat will not get released for Note 3 and there are chances that we'll be stuck with these camera/flashlight bugs for months. So, i would suggest, Redmi Note 4. Yes, it has SD625, which is inferior to SD650. But if you're not a gaming guy, it's fine to go for Note 4, which has also better battery life compared to Note 3, because of the chip being made on 14nm architecture.
If you're not in India, I would suggest to wait for Note 4 to popup on international selling sites.

Haha. Nope. You're talking about that geekbench leak? Lol. That was false info. right there. Someone ran that benchmark on custom ROM based on 7.1.1 and news sites reported it without thinking twice.

Well, that can be because it's still in testing and app doesn't detect some specs right. I have seen such things happen in the past.
I just checked, the app actually says 5.7 screen (latest version from Google Play)

Then do it already. RN3 won't get official Nougat update. Period.
Redmi series only get one OS update. We got it months ago as Marshmallow. No more updates now, even if it was best selling phone of India.

Flood Of Android 8 Based Roms

I'm just wondering if we are likely to see a flood of Oreo based roms as we did with Nougat, or are Devs moving to Mido? I ask because i see that development of Oreo roms aren't much compared to Mido.

[Q] No Pie based custom ROMs?

I expected at least Pixel Experience or any other AOSP based ROMs for our device but since it looks like both oreo/pie development is in grave. Anyone planning anything or it just stays like dead?

Will do. Hope its true
Custom ROM development for the Redmi 5 plus was essentially dead the moment Redmi note 5 released, I suggest selling it and buying either the Redmi note 5, Poco F1 or anything else
Follow the instructions in the video. Working LOS16 (although barebones so similar to AOSP), fully working GCam and smooth. There's the error message on boot and the USB bug - both not big deals. Really nice ROM.
