        Hello,
        I have Redmi 5 3 gb and 32 gb rom which is in good condition.
        Now, I want to upgrade the memory specs to 4 gb and 64 gb without changing the phone.
        Is it possible to remove the old motherboard and replaced with a new Redmi 5 4 gb 64 gb rom motherboard???
        Please kindly help me with upgrading my memory specs instead of buying a brand new phone.

          Yes if all hardware is the same except amount of ram/internal memory, that should be no problem.
          But you'll have to reinstall uTouch as if you change motherboard, you loose OS that is on it (and all your data with it, so save your data before).

              I don't know, and when i don't know, i search the world (very) wide web ^^
              You can do that or wait for someone else, who knows, answer.

              All i can say is on MX4, you can do this between 16 and 32 GB memory motherboard, all the rest's the same (but MX4 is particular, because you can't install uTouch on the majority of them, 16 or 32).
