Redmi Note 5 pro - Camera not working and Sim card not getting detected

all miui 10 have abr 4, only old version of miui 9 have arb 3, i also own this device, so i know what im talking about, latest oreo for fatboot https://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.3.1.0.OEIMIXM/whyred_global_images_V10.3.1.0.OEIMIXM_20190426.0000.00_8.1_global_8fe177760d.tgz, also you can try this [UNOFFICIAL BUILD] A Pi/e/ test ROM for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro "whyred" but better flash oreo than insyall official /e/ so you can get otas

i forget to ask what version of redmi note 5 you have? global or indian? if indian (with Pro in its name) previos link wwith fastboot rom will not work, you can search here https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/ its not officiall website, but links for roms are oficiall.

Right, mine is global Redmi Note 5 (Whyred), thanks!

indian version also called “whyred”, thats why im asking.

I know, I also suffered a lot trying to find latest Fastboot ROM for my device when I bought it, what a mess of names Xiaomi did :stuck_out_tongue:

Pie -> Oreo or Nougat does create issues . Had a similar experience while testing on the Xiaomi MiA1. Sim not getting detected. Had to revert to Stock Pie and later test /e/ Pie ROM.

Finally! After a lot of trial and error found Oreo based miui then flashed /e/

Sim and camera working.

I will post about the overall experience in a month or so.
