[Q] Nokia XL important questions - Nokia X

Hello!
I need some informations about the Nokia XL:
-Is it possible, in some way, to install Whatsapp? (Normal whatsapp client, not whatsapp plus)
-Is it possible to add google services with root.. but without troubles in the device's working?
-I saw there is a Cyanogenmod for Nokia X, does it work on Nokia XL without troubles as well?
Thank you!
PS: Sincerely I'd like to buy new Nokia XL 4G, but it's exclusively for china and on jd.com ecommerce only. Do you know if there is some way to buy it from china and receive it in Europe?

1. Yes. You just need to edit your build.prop and it should be working.
2. Yes. It is. And it works without any problems.
3. No. For the moment, it doesnot support XL.
Yes, there are some sites that may export it to you for a price.

There is no specific forum for nokia XL. I've been using this nokia x forum . the devs are friendly and most roms and mods for x work on xl too. So this is the right forum

Galaxy Note II Dual Sim N7102

Hi guys
I'm going to China next week for 2 weeks, I wanna buy the SGNII dual sim, somebody can tell me If this phone work fine in all places in the world?
I live in Italy.
Is it a big deal for you?
I have a SGSIII with a dual sim card and i love use only one phone with my personal number and my business number
pls let me know guys

This shows the primary networks (sim 1)
& secondary networks (sim 2)
Dual sim is important feature for me also.
It's quad band on both radios, so it will work fine in Italy.
It costs around $915. Not a good price.
Thnaks guys
is there any section here dedicated about this phone, for custom rom and other mods?
I think that with the dual sim feature I can't flash the custom rom with omega and more, right?

No, you can't flash existing custom roms. Whether there will be dev support for this phone is what I can't tell. since its only to be sold in the chinese market, I doubt if it will receive as much community support as the international counterpart
Android question for China GNII
I'm also in the market to buy a dual SIM phone and am quite keen to buy the N7102. I heard however China Android phones have limitations to access Google services like Gmail, Google maps etc. I also heard there is no way to access the Google Play store to download apps. Can anyone verify this? I don't live in China so these limitations will keep me from buying this model. Thanks everyone.
Mochiware, your gonna use the phone outside China? No problem downloading those apps & using western internet access.
Yes, i want this phone also, I'm happy to have dual sim & DC HSPA+ & forget LTE for now
$890 is alot of money & its going to be cheaper than that for me to buy it, 3rd December release date onwards should see it reduce a bit hopefully.

Pat, can you provide more details about access Google Play, signing into Google accounts etc? I heard from a friend living in China that there are restrictions that prevent Google access. Do you mean outside of China these restrictions don't apply over wifi and/or 3G? I can live without LTE so long as I can use dual-SIM so both my work and personal numbers can be on the same device. I carry 2 mobiles now and that can be annoying sometimes. Thanks in advance.
I've been using dual sim adaptors for many years & can't imagine only having one sim but i would like to have calls & SMS coming in from both numbers as well.
Yes your Sims wont be Chinese will they so your network will give you the same access you get on any other 2g/3g phone you currently use.
If you think about it, the Chinese restrictions are going to be applied through the network/carrier otherwise nothing would stop them buying non Chinese handsets to avoid the blocks, it would be to easy.
Any apps missing on the software you can download. "Play store" is a downloadable app ...

I just got an n7102 tonight, and gonna root it tomorrow to get my google service back: p
BTW , you could not just install google play, you will get fc. You need to install googleserviceframework.apk as well.
Ok, thanks for correcting me, can i ask about where you bought & price?
i understood the 7102 to be available for delivery only from 3rd Dec.
Thanks guys let me know the questions I'm going to china next week I can ask to my friend and I will go in a store for test the phone
Thanks buddy let me know about root and many other info about the phone that u got it
Inviato dal mio GT-I9300 con Tapatalk 2
U should be able to flash the GAPPS to get all google services back from http://goo.im/gapps, once it's rooted and custom recovery installed. The 3rd Dec delivery is for some online retailers only, from what I heard its already available for sale domestically in China.
Hi there,
You mean i need root access for the phone to enable all western functions?
Isnt it the normal samsung UI?
I need german language, google play, gmail and maps.
If not working out of the box i better not spend this ammount...
Thanks for help!

It won't have the standard google apps out of box. The software is a modified version of android with pretty much all google service removed. There s no way using gmail google play maps or YouTube apps without root.
I can't verify this but I don't think it comes with German language UI either.
I just rooted my N7102, and reinstall back from my GSG3 backups. then removed all the default apps.
All work fine! Google account, google play, google map....etc.
thanks a lot for your prompt reply!
Will this beast then launch in Hongkong with full functions out of the box?
Got my Tab 7.7 there which works perfectly without flashing etc..
Thanks!

Ivan
yes, I use the normal N7100 odin and cd-root to root N7102. It works fine! I didn't re-install CWM but recover from my backups.
and CWM shows that N7102 is not supported! So I uninstalled it.

It's not clear that will happen.
There s no indication this model will be released outside mainland China.

[GENERAL HELP] Post Your Questions Here Instead of Making a New Thread

Many people are joining xda on daily basis. Some of them join the forum to get custom ROMs while some join in order to get some of their problem that they are facing with their phones solved.
There are dedicated threads for ROMs but what about HELP/QUESTIONS??
People generally straight away start a new thread to get their doubts solved. But this can lead to chaos in the forum.
I'm creating this thread as an alternative to *New Threads* that aim to resolve a question.
Not only this, this thread can also become a Database kind of place where people can look if their question is already solved or not...
I request all members of the ASUS ZENFONE ZOOM sub-forum to help and answer some questions posted here if they can.
I hope you guys get the idea behind this thread...

Was inspecting my box of my Zoom again when I noticed the CN at the end of the model name. However my Zoom came with the WW rom out of the box (sealed). Anyone else had the same thing?
Found out another issue. Running a software version from Nov. Tried to update (via SD or internal storage) to the newest version (tried both WW and CN) but not working.
Checked some of the Zenfone 2 threads for solutions but so far haven't gotten it to work. It won't go in to recovery mode.

Seeing how there is no android development threads yet, is there possible community support for this phone going forward? Such as Cyanogenmod? Also do you think there is a possible zenfone zoom 2 in the works?

Since it's basically a Zenfone 2 with better camera, you can have a look in the Zenfone 2 forum. Some tutorials there also work for the Zoom (ZX55ML).
Don't think we will see a new model soon because the current one only was release dec 2015 / jan 2016.

Do you know if any ROMs actually work from the original zenfone 2?
From CN to WW?
Hello everyone,
i bought an Asus Zoom with CN Firmware from tradingshenzhen.com 4 weeks ago.
I installed the Google Apps and switched to German Language and Keyboard. Everything works fine and
the pics are very good.
But sometimes it loses the connection to my mobil provider Swisscom. (I live and work in Switzerland).
Is this a bug or a feature ? Is this an error from the CN firmware Version CN_V2.26.40.83 ?
I have no longer 4G or 3G.
Can i switch to the WW_V2.26.40.82 For WW SKU only ? WW means Worldwide? Or what stands WW for?
Do i have to root the device first?
Please excuse my english, it is long time ago, that i have to write complex question in an american/english forum
Thx and Greetings from Switzerland,
Steve

Root Vivo X Play 5?

Hello. I'm in China and I need to buy a new phone, I like the look of the Vivo X Play 5, but I want to be able to root it. I can't see any information on here or on any other sites (I'm having some problems connecting to vpn to use google, no results on bing). Does anyone know if there's a way?

Yes, it works great. Only thing is the live tile is Chinese instead if English but that's not a problem. Just glad I have it back. Don't know why Tencent did nit just leave it in the store for us and end support instead.

Yes, I am in the Uk and the UK and the app has been withdrawn from the Microsoft Store by Tencent a few months back. And I don't know why. They should have left it there and just not supported it with updates. Mind you, I cant remember the last time they did even update it!! But, this version works just fine. It installed on my phone no problem and works perfectly. I work with a lot of people in China and WeChat is an invaluable app for me. Has this beta version worked for you ok?

Ok, so I have a Lumia 950. And, before I even downloaded the app, I went to phone update and in to developers. There, I set the button to "developers mode" and then downloaded the app from the link so kindly given. Maybe you could try the same thing after you uninstall. Then try to reinstall again.

Don't want to replace Lumia 640XL -- Any fix for WhatsApp after 2020?

Hello everyone! My mom is currently using a 640XL. She's very happy with it. The phone works well, looks good. But there's a problem. WhatsApp will no longer be supporter after 2020. I'm looking for a fix, some way that she can keep this app. Does that exist?
Worst case scenario, can Google store be downloaded into the phone so she can access it from there? I know there's a way to do this with Kindle tablets but unsure if it applies to windows phones.
I'm not a programmer or even programming literate but will try and follow instructions if there's anything to be done.
Thanks for any tips.

Hi there,
I tried it on a Lumia 950XL WoA, and it works. Not sure, that notifications will come with a new message.
I tried the same on a Lumia 710 (WP 7.8) and it sent me to the Store and recommanded WhatsApp. When I tried to install WhatsApp (knowing it can't be installed anymore), the store told me to update my phone.
So you allways will need an Android or iOS device to install your WhatsApp and keep it running, and you can hope that WhatsApp will update their Website in order to prevent you from getting to the App store.
Best wishes, Joachim

If someone is interested, whatsapp web works in windows 10 mobile using Monument Browser, which is a very good browser you can find in the store.
You'll need a master phone with android or ios app to setup the link.
It seems to me that notifications won't work, but maybe changing some setting in the browser can also fix notifications.

If yes where can I download it and how can i install it ?

That sounds great... Could you please tell us how to patch, or provide a download link?

After a hard reset of 950 XL Whatsapp no longer works.
After a hard reset, for me a new installation, I would not get WhatsApp any more. If WhatsApp would run once more, I would suggest to make a WpInternals Backup...
Just to read old messages: Turn on flight mode and reset date to January 13. Do not try to answer an old message...
So for me, patching WhatsApp would help.
Regards, Joachim
I've been using that method for a few weeks now, but needed a few tweaks to get it working at it's best (which isn't perfect!). I've put a guide HERE https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/whatsappweb-w10m-t4036235

Thank you, it works for me as for you. 65% zoom was a good suggestion. Pinning to my home screen did not work, but I use Monumentum only for WhatsApp, so there is no problem.
