At least Lineage 14.1 and AICP are, don't know about the others.

I think the only differences between the two are in design.
top: IR/Mic location.
bottom: 5 speaker/Mic holes in N4X / 6 holes in RN4, and the two screws on RN4.

Both devices are (mido)
RN4x have more bands...
RN4 SD LTE bands 3(1800), 5(850), 40(2300)
RN4x LTE bands 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500).
and bluetooth i think on RN4 SD is 4.1 and in the RN4x is 4.2, only that.

the Xiaomi Note 4X have louder speaker but the plastic at the bottom and the top make it feel cheaper since the original Note 4 was full metal/aluminium...

Redmi note 3 different versions

Hi,
I wanna order my redmi note 3 but i don't know what phone is the right one. there are so many models...
i want to flash a pretty clean AOSP or CM rom on it that is stable so im required to buy the right model.
When i look around i usually see pro's, with 3GB ram and a octa core but i have seen some with hexa core both claiming to be snapdragons...
I want to use this phone in europe.
which one is the Kenzo model with snapdragon and alot of custom roms etc?
are there a lot of 'fake' xiaomi's on ebay?

You get the snapdragon. It is a hexacore SD 650.
What LTE bands do you need? There is a Kate which has more than the Kenzo.

I think B20, will probably not get 4G unless in bigger city's but i don't care for 4G that much anyway.. 3G is fine by me.
Doesn't kate have less rom choice?
Which is better kate or kenzo? and how do i know which one am buying??
Kate is newer than Kenzo, so yeah it has less support and even some people don't know it exists!
Kenzo is the Redmi note 3 Pro. Has LTE band 3 (1800mhz) only.
Kate is the Redmi note 3 Pro special edition or international edition. Has LTE Band 3 and Band 20 (800mhz).
I ordered the Kate one although I know it has less support, but I need all international LTE bands!

Redmi note 4 lte support in usa

If I buy a Redmi Note 4 in India, will it run LTE in USA? If yes, which carriers?
If you say India then that would probably mean the Redmi Note 4 or 4x. I am not sure so I will answer for both. The main difference between the two is the LTE band support anyway.
So what the 2 versions support:
RN4: 3(1800), 5(850), 40(2300)
RN4x: 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500)
Now in the US there are a lot of carriers so if you want to have a more general idea of which bands are in work in each case then you can check the list in wikipedia. I will list only the 4 major carriers.
AT&T: 2, 4, 5, 17
Verizon: 2, 4, 13
T-Mobile: 2, 4, 12
Sprint: 25, 26, 41
Short answer is more or less no, no LTE in the USA.
HOWEVER, if you don't mind tinkering a bit then you can actually unlock bands for your chip. Just google "unlock lte bands qualcomm" (sorry I am not providing links, cannot do so yet). Be careful and read a bit before trying the methodology though because you can cause permanent issues to the phone.

So this means that it *might* work on AT&T, right?
And I meant RN4. Thanks!

Sorry didn't color that.
Your possibility, with RN4, is AT&T because of that 5 band. Problem is you cannot know if all areas are covered by that band. But yeah, AT&T takes a "might".
Get the Redmi Note 4 Global Edition (Yes this is another variant of the 4X from what I can see, confusing, I know). It supports the same as the Redmi Note 4x, except it also supports Band 4 and Band 20, which will work on most major carriers in the US.

+1 from me. Just found that the "Global Version" (go figure at this point with versions!!!) actually supports B1, B3, B4, B5, B7, B8, B20, B38, B40. So if you manage to get your hands on one of those then you will have no issues!

note 4 and note 4x

Hey guys I saw to threads that have almost the same questions and answers that I am looking for but it's not being specific....
My question is if I was to buy right now Qualcomm 4gb 64gb note 4 will the 4x (mido) ROMs work on it?
Yes
Buy Redmi Note 4 Global (Snap 625) if you need B20 LTE Band. If you dont need it you can get 4x.
And yes, Snapdragon 625 SoC = Mido , Mediatek SoC = Nikel

What are the Model #'s for Snapdragon 625 [Note 4] & [Note 4x]?

Good day, everyone
TL;DR - WTK Model Numbers for Snapdragon 625 [Note 4] & [Note 4x]
So far;
2016100 = Redmi Note 4 4Gb/64G (credit: @sachin n)
2016101 = Redmi Note 4X 3Gb/32G (credit: @Delkapone)
2016102 =Redmi Note 4 3GB/32GB (credit: @krasCGQ)
I am about to finalise the purchase of a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 OR 4X.
I am trying to find ONLY the MODEL NUMBERS for;
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 - 4gb RAM, 64gb storage (Snapdragon 625 Variant; might be 2016100 or 2016102, need confirmed)
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X - 4gb RAM, 64gb storage (Snapdragon 625 Variant)
Some threads have said the SD 625's of both the 4 and 4x and identical, yet others go on to state physical differences in feature/hardware placements.
I just want to ensure that I get the Snapdragon 625 version, I do not want to end up wit a device that has the Mediatek CPU.
P.S.
Please don't turn the question into an argument for the Mediatek Variant and/or the 3GB models and your experience with them, I've already decided on the Snapdragon 624 4gb/64gb and I'm just trying to ensure I get the correct product.
I understand that the model numbers may vary slightly, possibly dependent on region and storage configuration.
I've looked for the questions/answers in the forum and others as well and can't seem to get a straight idea.
Thank you everyone, any relevant constructive help will be greatly appreciated.

Double post, sorry :c
SD 625 is octa-core while Mediatak Helios X20 is deca-core. Some shop list it, I think it's a good indicator to buy the right version.
And I also read something about that the differnt SD 625 versions have difference only in supported network frequency.

Thank you for responding.
I do know the SD625 is an octa-core vs the deca-core of the Mediatek version.
I've already decided on the SD 625.
The problem I am having is that I was told in passing that the NOTE 4 SD625 (4GB/64GB) is identical to the NOTE 4X SD625 (4GB/64GB).
I am just trying to find a way or confirm if there are physical differences or not.
They are identical, the only difference is that the 4x doesn't have b20(800 MHz) band...But some shops
report It in the specification, I think it's an error...
I don't remember where i red this, but another difference is in the Quality of construction that in 4x is lower than 4 ( I don't know if it's true)
The Redmi Note4x is the global (or international) version. It has 4g lte radio bands that will work on either AT&T or T-Mobile in the U.S. The Redmi Note 4 will not work on any 4g lte band in the U.S. It will work on 3g band 1900 which is supported by AT&T and T-Moibile but you can forget about 4g lte in the U.S. with this version. The 4X was released about 10 months after the 4 version was and there are some hardware differences because of that (different brand sensors and camera's) but don't confuse the the different SOC options (MTK or Snap) with one version or the other. You can find both of those SOC options on either version. Even though there are some brand differences in the internal hardware the X of the 4X version is simply meant to signify that it is a global use phone with additional radio bands that the 4 version does not have. BTW, the IR blaster is not in the same position so if you are buying a case or other accessories, buy the case that is specifically for the 4 or the 4X version.
This comparison chart came directly from Xiaomi....
The Differences
Redmi Note 4
Bluetooth 4.1
Network Bands
4G FDD-LTE B3 / B5
4G TDD-LTE B40
3G WCDM 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100MHz
Redmi Note 4x
Bluetooth 4.2
Network Bands
4G FDD-LTE B1 / B3 / B5 / B7
4G TDD-LTE B38 / B39 / B40 / B41 ( 2555-2655MHz)
TD-SCDMA B34 / B39
3G WCDMA B1 / B2 / B5 / B8 (850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100MHz)
CDMA2000 / 1X BC0
2G GSM B2 / B3 / B5 / B8 (850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900MHz)
The Note 4 is made in India and the Note 4x is made in China. The differences in bands on the chart above reflects the needed bands to work in China. Since they posted this chart they have also added lte bands that work in the U.S. (band 4 and whatever AT&T uses) but did not update the chart to reflect that. All newer Note 4X's are global 4G capable though.
