Android 9 Pie has been released da poco and the desire to try the new version of Google's operating system is so great that international developers and modders have already set to work to cook specific Custom ROMs for models that most likely will not see the new OS. Maybe that's not the case with Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro, the best buy in the mid-range 2018 category, which anyway can boast the release of a first customized custom ROM, and that brings the new features of Android 9 Pie. The Redmi Note 5 Pro is one of the most popular smartphone of the Chinese OEM since its release, and then probably will receive support for Android 9 in an official way, but in the meantime who wants to experiment with the new OS can do it thanks to the Pixel Experience, one of the most popular custom ROMs at least in the Xiaomi panorama.
The reporting of the ROM provides us with the site of XDA Developers and in particular fromsenior user @jhenrique09 that has done a lot of work for the community. The ROM is specific to the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro codenamed WHYREDtherefore, do not try to install it on terminals other than the one mentioned. In any case we recommend a backup copy of all data and above all not to improvise modder if you are not familiar with these procedures. Finally we report that being a first release, there is to be expected bug even if it is the same developer to issue a list of such.
