Hello,

I have a question is it possible to install MI 8 roms on the MI 8 pro? As far as I know the two devices are completely identical except for the fingerprint scanner and battery. I could live without the fingerprint scanner, but the facial recognition should be also the same on both devices. Only the explorer edition uses a different face detection (please correct me if I'm wrong).
I'm to scared to brick my phone so I would be interested if someone already tried this and could explain me what they did to get the rom running.

Thanks :).

I had tried flashing Mi8 ROMS (Official) on the Mi 8 Pro - neither the fingerprint scanner nor the camera worked. There must be differences with the camera also I believe.

this is still a relatively new phone and if anyone knew how to change those issues and since the rom is freely available, hopefully hope is not lost eh?
