Redmi 2/Prime Lollipop MIUI 9 ROM is released for all

---

Update 10/ 2017: MIUI 9 links added for redmi 2 based on android lollipop.

Update 08/2017: New links added of MIUI 8.1.3.0 of both recovery and fastboot ROM. In July 2016, MIUI released MIUI 8 for Redmi 2 and prime.

Redmi 2/ Prime users waited longer for the official Android 5 update. Redmi 2 lollipop official update arrived now.  Miui team recruited some forum members to test the Android 5 build on their Redmi 2 devices.

While it’s for Redmi 2 prime, but you can still install this in 1GB variants too.
The ROM is still in beta phase so that you might run into some bugs.

While if you need screenshots, I would like to tell you that they are just similar to old MIUI builds.
