Testing Android ROMs since 2019 — started on a Redmi Note 5 Pro, overclocked its Snapdragon 636 from 1.8GHz to 2.2GHz, and tested every ROM ever made for it. The Whyred is still in my hands. Excellent condition. Never quits.

The name titiansxd started as my in-game name. It stuck everywhere else too.

It was 2019. I had a Redmi Note 5 Pro — the Whyred. Snapdragon 636. Stock clock: 1.8GHz. Adreno 509 GPU. Mid-range on paper. A beast in my hands.

I didn't just flash ROMs on it. I overclocked its Snapdragon 636 from stock 1.8GHz all the way to 2.2GHz using custom kernels — essentially unlocking Snapdragon 660 speeds on a budget phone. Qualcomm locked it. I unlocked it.

On that one device I tested everything possible — Corvus OS, OxygenOS (unofficial), Mint OS, unofficial MIUI ports, Pixel Experience, Arrow OS, LineageOS, Evolution X, Havoc OS, crDroid and more. If it existed for Whyred, I flashed it, broke it, and reported every bug I found.

Every log I pulled. Every report I wrote. That's what made ROM developers trust me.

I'm not the one who writes the code. I'm the one who makes sure the code doesn't embarrass the developer.

That Redmi Note 5 Pro from 2019? Still in my hands. Excellent condition. Still gets flashed. Some legends don't retire.

Currently a BCA 1st Year student at DSVV, Haridwar — but my real classroom has always been the bootloader.
