This is the first time I'd be using a Xiaomi device(Redmi 3 Pro). It's cool and kind of odd when people ask you the kind of phone you Use and you say Xiaomi (most people do not know jack about it).
I just want we using this device regardless the model to meet here and share tips on how to get the best out of it eg. Rooting, unlocking, flashing, Upgrading, etc.
Please lets make this work and Shout out to @elijahdre for getting me this wonderful device.

Good day.
A friend brought redmi note 8 pro for me from china. But the problem is that is the China ROM. I can't see any Google services like Gmail, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and co. All I see is qq. Baidu, 163.com and all the writing and Apps are Chinese. Even the whatapp I saw is whatapp plus.
Please how can I convert it to global rom, because I can't use it like that. Any suggestions and way forward how to change it will be appreciated Pls. Fibonacci2526 jboixxx embrace and co
Thanks

First off, unlock the phone's bootloader. Then download, and install the following on a PC:
- MiFlash tool
- ADB and Fastboot
Finally, download the appropriate Global ROM for your Redmi note 8 pro.
You will use the MiFlash tool, with the aid of Adb and Fastboot commands to flash the Global ROM onto your Redmi note 8 pro.

I would strongly advise you to visit xda forums, and YouTube to read, or watch comprehensive guides.

You might have to root the phone then, starting with :
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Install twrp or any other compatible custom recovery
3. Install any English ROM you want
Cc: olayinkajnr, grandmufti, genius43

@dulaman, you'll need to unlock your bootloader and then flash a global ROM via fastboot mode.

Oops, it's Redmi Note 8 Pro. You can't use mi flash tools but sp flash tools.

You can download Google Apps using Gapps Installer app,uninstall the Chinese apps you don't want or disable them and place in a folder..

Then go ahead and install the apps you need and use your phone like that,you don't need to start flashing anything to enjoy the phone..

Try the following link for an idea on how to proceed..

And use this link to download the Gapps Installer..

The Redmi Note 8T is also a Global Version made for the European market.

NFC(Near Field Communication) is not for notifications but for digital payments and we don't currently use that here. You can also use it to connect wireless speakers with the support.

So your theory is wrong.

Redmi Note 8 has Notification Led while Redmi Note 8T doesn't

Good evening all.
I got my Redmi note 8 3 weeks ago and i have discovered recently that it has screen sensitivity issue, the keyboard presses keys i didn't on its own, sometimes when i try to press and hold the screen to view whatsapp status it doesn't work, instead it moves to the next status.
Any other person experiencing this?

Did it fall at any point? What you are experiencing is called ghost touches
