I am unsure if the note 5 pro forums are right for my phone as I have the redmi note 5 (not pro) m1803e7sg with 3GB RAM,
the ram and storage seems to me being the only major difference, so are ROMS compatible?
if not, is there another forum for my model?

Yes the PRO and Global use the same ROMs. Even for official MIUI ROMs. I also have the same model number because I have the global model as well but 4GB RAM with 64GB storage option. As long as the codename is whyred it'll work just fine. I know Xiaomi's model naming can be really confusing. The ROMs on this forum will work on your device.

Hey, yes it is. I have it and I've flashed a lot of roms like Havoc or PE. In Europe the redmi note 5 pro is just called redmi note 5. You have the global version btw. (B20 working on this model).

Hi guys, no idea if there are still active people here but I have a redmi note 5 (3gb RAM, SDM660, model M1803E7SG. So same as above but with SDM660 instead of 636. Will these roms work for this model as well?

Yes, it should work. The Snapdragon 636 and 660 are very similar, so some apps may display it as sdm660. Whyred ROMs will work on your device.
