Each and every smartphone comes with a particular model name, model number, and a unique codename as well. Now, you may ask when an official model name and number is available, what is the need for device codenames? It really differentiates one smartphone model from another under the same kind of series or OEM. It also prevents the real model name of a device before its official announcement. Therefore, developers create a unique codename for the devices that will also help to understand the specifications, software on a device.
Even developers can easily build custom ROMs, a custom recovery like TWRP, and more compatible with each and every Android smartphone. Here in this article, we will share all Xiaomi and Redmi Devices Codenames.
The Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi is known for its value for money smartphones and its custom skin ‘MIUI’ across the globe. In a few years, Xiaomi has also announced so many accessories, mobile apps, laptops, daily-life items, other consumer electronics, IoT devices, and more.
Now, if you’re using any of the Xiaomi or Redmi handset and want to flash any third-party firmware or TWRP, then you may need the codename of that particular model.
How does the Xiaomi or Redmi Device Codename look Like?
If you’re an avid user in terms of the flashing Recovery or Fastboot ROM file on your Xiaomi or Redmi device, then you may have noticed a codename inside the Fastboot ROM download link. Such as:
platina_global_images_V10.3.1.0.PDTMIXM_20
There is no device model name mentioned here. Only the MIUI version, device codename, Global/China version are mentioned. That ‘Platina’ codename denotes to the Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite model. So, you should always know the codename of the device which you’re using. Let’s take a look below:
