Hello,

Following my previous question (see Redmi Note 5 topic for e/os installation) for which I had only link for Lineage OS I ask again : can I install e/os on it ? If yes where is the documentation knowing that I am not a specialist of these matters ?

Same question for my Redmi Note 12 Pro +

With AID64 Icould know the name of the 2 devices :

  • Redmi note 5 is whyred,
  • Redmi note 12 Pro+ is rubypro_eea

Hoping to have good news from you.

I made an unofficial build for Redmi Note 5

Not fully sure but this should run on the Redmi Note 12 Pro

Merci / Thanks

As Isaid I am not very skilled for these manipulation, so I would like you or somebody guide me a little bit more because the tutorials are so completethat I am a little bit lost.

This why I use first my old Redmi Note 5 whyred

On my redmi note 5 whyred :

  • I am on the developper mode
  • I have downloaded ““Official TWRP App” but I do not understand how to continue with

On my PC under Linux Zorin Os based on Ubuntu

  • I have downloaded e-3.1.4-t-20251007-UNOFFICIAL-whyred.zip

But now : what to do ?

This is useless…
What you need is Download twrp-3.7.0_9-0-whyred.img

That’s a good thing.

First, install fastboot on your PC

OK, done and unzipped in my home directory.

And now ?

@piero Le drapeau français pourrait signaler que nous pourrions converser dans cette langue, ce serait peut-être plus simple pour moi :thinking:

Je n’aime pas la procédure exigée par Xiaomi pour débloquer le bootloader.
