Tell the seller to only flash latest China Dev ROM or leave the factory installed ROM as it is.

When you install GooglePlay, other services would be provided, I believe.

Dude slow down.
Before you start thinking about flashing everything 'flash-able', make sure there is continuous development for your said device. The Redmi 5+ is still a very late comer and as such, development is still in the early stages.
Check XDA for development on the Redmi 5+.
I will advice you'd be patient till the device gets better recognition.

The update works fine here.

One other thing I noticed is that QC2.0 has been enabled on the Redmi 4x after the update.

Battery charges faster (if you use a QC2.0 charger) and last well too.

Performance has been smooth also

QC 2.0, seriously? shocked

Don't panic, the phone comes with Chinese rom from the factory, you can flash China developer rom on it through the updater app without the need to unlock bootloader. Tell the seller he shouldn't flash any rom on it.

Don't think there is anything you can do to fix the broken button. You can just let the seller know what happened, just in case.....

What do you mean by not curved earpiece?

Tried to talk to the seller when protection was running out.... that I haven't seen the earphone but I was answered by automated machine twice. Got to find out later a lot people had the same issue....about him not answering. Was fortunate to get the earphone after protection ran out. Not about to waste my time trying to talk to him again

Na all d stores mata.. Dere is no official global rom for redmi 5 plus. Only china rom..

I know, I have a reason for asking. If it's global rom they advertised and the seller used a vendor rom, then he has a case and can open a dispute.

Then use the phone as it is for now, until you get more feedback from people. Meanwhile, were you notified that a fake rom will be flashed by the seller?

Well, this was an unfortunate incident, if it came broken then that robot would have been made to refund you.

Your fastboot files and the twrp image have to be in C: folder

Not in a sub folder

You open the fastboot with elevated privileges to flash. ......


Or just use mi flash tool .
