Is this Note 4 or Note 4x or...? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Quick question!
Is my device Mido? May I flash custom roms for Note 4 Snapdragon?
I am asking because my phone have case which look like Note 4X (no screws on the bottom, 5 speaker's holes etc.. ), but in settings and on the box I can read that it is Note 4. It is version with: Snapdragon, 3Gb Ram and of course 5,5". I'm waitin to unlock bootloader so I want to be sure that I will not brick my phone after flashing RR or Lineage
So many versions.... Wtf Xiaomi
Please tell me it is Mido, I need custom rom :laugh:

if its snapdragon it should be mido
and I have a Note 4X as well and in the settings it is also described as Redmi Note 4, so I guess it's normal

That Ez, just download CPU-Z app and you'll see if it's snapdragon Soc, that's Mido, and yeah, Roms are compatible.

So...
SD = Mido and MTK = Nikel?
I know that I have SD so everything is clear now
Thanks!

Redmi 3 Pro: most purer-stable rom out there?

Hi
Whats up?
Bought the Redmi 3 Pro 3GB/32GB version.
After read a lot and especially the ROMs suitable for Redmi 3 Pro thread
I read that the MIUI's rom is onerous the phone with so much bloatware apps(cleanmaster, antivrus, Micloud and so more).
So, what is the most stable rooted rom w/o bugs at the area? (Read that the CM13 still have some annoying bugs)
I'm totally noob at the beginning after buying a new device
Saw the MIUI 8 V6.7.7 -BUT- still prefer more "puerer" rom and ofcoarse - with the least Lags as possible.
Prefer a rom that comes rooted comes with twrp + gapps installed that keeps the great battery life of the RN3 PRO.
Is there a "tut's" for how to?
Thanks very much for your help
Been using nehz's CM 12.1 for weeks and it's been pretty stable, some small bugs but it's not that bad. Battery life is almost the same as MIUI, I get a 6.5 to 7 hours SOT.
I'm new to MIUI also have a Redmi 3 pro for two weeks now and I have to say I'm quite happy with MIUI so far. Im currently running the MIUI 8 spaceX rom which is rooted so any apps I don't want to use I have frozen or uninstalled using titanium backup. Before this I've always had some form of CyanogenMod on my older phones and thought that I'd have to flash cm again but so far I'm happy with MIUI

Thanks for your replays!
I always prefer a ROM without bloatware, that's why I think I would prefer the CM.
Is there a way to flash the ROM and and root it at the same process?
Thanks again.
There's no bloatware in the either of ManHiT's MIUI roms. Maybe 6 or 7 system apps that you won't want to use but these are easily uninstalled once you have root.

I second this. In SpaceX/Manh_IT bloatware should not be a problem. I've rooted and removed the ones that I do not use. Just make sure you NEVER remove the MI Account and Find Phone applications. IT WILL render your phone unuseful and needing to flash again.
Thanks very much for your help.
I got the MTK Helio X10 version.
I understood that this is a sub-model for the Chiniese market.
I plan to root it and in case i wont be satified with the MIUI, would flash some clean rom that would be as close to a stock android.
Is there any GLOBAL rom for this model?
Have a good weekend!

Redmi 3 is a model for the Chinese model, there is no submodel. You probably got a fake.

Hi,

http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Xiao...7-16-0MP-TOUCH-ID---Silvery-White-362395.html
Are you sure that there is 1 global model?
Cuase, I read that there is 2 models with 2 different proccesors:
1) MTK chipsent (Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 Hexa Core Helio X10)
2) MSM chipsent (Qualcomm MSM8956 Snapdragon 650)
So there is must be a defference with the roms for the 2 sus model's, arent?
Would love to be more clear about that.
Thanks!

Sorry, my mistake when typing.
No matter if the forum is about NOTE 3 or NOTE 3 PRO. You bought a NOTE 3 version.
Here on this forum we talk about Redmi 3 / PRO not Redmi NOTE 3 / PRO.
You need ask for help on this forum.
Regards.
Thanks alot guys :highfive:

I am not buying or have 4x so again question is;
Can roms for Snapdragon variants be flashed on to international variant with Snapdragon ? Would that effect band 20 in any way?

Hmm....
If you read this post , you'll get it.
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/mido-rom-for-global-international-version.39385/
I guess 4x is called "Mido" and somebody on the link abov said all Mido roms works with i ternational variant...
For anyone wondering , i bought and flashed mido developer rom, stable roms they work and my band 20 is not touched.
But camera is really bad (samsung sensor)... My old jiayu s3 was way better...

Is there an android stock rom for Redmi Note 4x yet?

I can't understand if roms for Note 4 are compatible with 4x.
Probably not. Don't flash rom for other phone.
What version of the redmi note 4x do you have? The one with the snapdragon cpu or the one with the mediatek cpu?
If you have the version with the snapdragon one (mido), and you talking about flashing AOSP stock Roms, then there are some of them.
I had before the "redmi note 4x 3gb ram 32gb, snapdragon/mido version" and I could install all the Roms created for the "redmi note 4 Mido/snapdragon".
You can find them here:

I see, you haven't bought it yet.
I would suggest you the 4gb ram, 64gb internal memory.
They have become quite cheap, see for yourself:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/-/32831724445.html?spm=a2g0s.8937460.0.0.eCtmLZ
Or you can spend a bit more and get the global version of the note 4:

It's the same phone, so every ROM will work.
But do yourself a favor and buy the phone with 32GB internal storage.

none have it afaik but you are free to recompile the kernel and modify the firmware
Try your best to get the 4gb Ram/64gb Snapdragon global variant.
I got mine off AliExpress.
I use AOSP extended (pie/9) with Englezos kernel.
Brilliant experience thus far.
both definelty same XD

Can i install redmi note 5 oreo rom on redmi note 4 (mido)

As both these phones share similar hardware , can I install redmi note 5 miui rom on rn4 or any way to mod rn5 miui so that it can work on rn4 ?

Never flash a rom that isn't for your phone or you will very likely brick your phone
Android isn't like windows, you can't simply install the same version on every phone, each rom is only meant to run on a certain device with a specific configuration.
You can install pixel experience for rn4 mido version with Qualcomm cpu here:
https://download.pixelexperience.org/mido/
And TWRP from here:
https://twrp.me/Devices/Xiaomi/
Thanks for the reply
However I am not a newbie here , I have been tinkering with android devices , even with earlier mediatek based devices.
I have had my fair share of bootloops and stuff.
The only reason I asked this was that these both devices are literally same. Just different screen sizes(which doesn't matter much in software side of things).
They share same ram, rom, cpu etc.
Edit : Plan dropped
Just found out , theres no portrait mode on redmi note 5/ redmi 5 plus , whereas portrait mode on rn4 works perfectly on both cams.
Beta of rn4 is more like stable , however it is not the case with note 5/ redmi 5 plus.
