I have just installed Global ROM (V9.2.6.0.NEIMIEK), it looks like there was all fine, but camera crash, it doesnt work, i have reinstalled it again with a wipe from recovery first but same error, fatal crash. I have tried OpenCamera but same problem, so i have returnet to CN ROM.

¿Could it be that Global version will have Sony IMX486 and no Samsung sensor so it crashes when try to initialitate camera app?

P.D: Sorry about my english

5 days since I requested bootloader unlock. no email yet. how long does it usually take on avg?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Chip Liang:
I requested thru this website: http://en.miui.com/unlock/

And i think no email will sent to you as i have unlocked 3 different xiaomi phones before but each xiaomi phone's unlocked time is less than one week.

However, my waiting time for unlocking bootloader for this phone is 360 hours, that's full 15 days, so we just have to wait and does nothing.

I have searched thru the web and there's other way to unlock bootloader manually, but it's considered a dangerous way and will bricked your device especially if your device is on china rom like me. So my advice is just wait and use the safe method to unlock the bootloader:)

Could you suggest the best non miui ROM for rn5 pro.

I am currently on miui 10 8.6.28.

I want a ROM which is

1) gcam compatible,

2) has edge gestures

3) has better battery life and good performance than miui.

Also can you provide steps for gcam flash.

Thanks. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hosssain:
I have tested RR,Lineage and aosip ROM.

Only RR have edge gesture feature.

All have good battery backup and gcam running well for Redmi note 5 pro.

Use BSG version.

If you want customization use RR or Aosip.If you want less feature then Lineage is best for both battery and performance.

For gcam enable camera 2 API and install gcam.?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] azz_kikr:
Since you are using a Custom rom. If you use Gcam, do you also have the issue when recording a video that that bitrate of the aduio is only 96kbps and very very thinny? Or that works fine on a none stock rom?

Hi!

As a fresh new Xiaomi owner, I would like to ask some question:

- If I opened the bootloader, how can I close back (accidently)? What do I need to care about that it doesn't happen?

- My rom version is 9.5.17, and if I upload custom rom (which is

NOT

ARB4), how can I switch back tho the official 9.5.17 global rom? Fastboot method? TWRP install? MiFlash?

- If I allow OTA update to 9.6.2 global rom (which is arb4) and I would like to try a MIUI 10 rom (which is also ARB4), can I downgrade later back to 9.6.19 (the first ARB4 rom) or I need to take care about ARB's version numbers? Example:

From 9.6.2 can I downgrade to 9.5.19 or the minimal version is 9.6.2? Or the only thing what I need to care for is that ARB 4 level (version number doesn't matter).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redweaver:
I have a question, I've been seeing posts from people complaining that they tried to flash an older miui version on their phones and now their phones are bricked because of the antirollback feature, and to recover their phone they need an authorised device id, which Xiaomi doesn't seem to be keen on handing out anymore.

My question goes: is it that you don't need to unlock your bootloader when flashing miui versions? Because I'm wondering that if they can't boot into their phones why don't they just flash a custom rom? Even if they can't access the desired rom, couldn't they just flash a custom rom and continue with their lives?

I don't want to keep the bootloader unlocked. Can anyone please help me that how i can relock the boot loader after flashing Global stable rom in Chinese device?
