Probably because all roms don't have every language pack. It adds a considerable size to have un-needed languages in the rom...

My P605 ITV have all the European languages, so Swedish is included. For Chinese, I don't know how is written in Chinese characters, maybe is the last one from the attached list?

Thanks, yes at bottom 中文 = chinese.
However I think you could flash another 605 rom (like the Italian-itv) to obtain your preferred language also if you bought it from others countries.

Mine Was bought in Italy. I put it in French (i'm in france) but every time i make a google search, the result are mostly in Italian

By the way, thank you for you help.
gonna let you know if now every think is really fine
Hello everyone,
The more I look on this forum and others, the more I am tempted by a flash to solve the problem I have :
I bought a SM-P605 in Hong Kong but the languages available on the device are only English and Chinese.:crying:
So I'm thinking of flashing the device with Odin and install the P605XXUBMJ9_P605OXXBMJ2_XEF firmware to get french language by default.
Has some else done it before me ? Did it work fine ?
I think it should be :good: but still, 5 questions torment me. If someone has answers, I'll be really thankful !
1) Does the 4G works fine after flashing ? Does the modem driver of the XEF ROM (P605XXUBMJ9_P605OXXBMJ2_XEF.zip ) is 100% compatible with my hardware purchased in Asia? How can I be sure? FYI my operator is Bouygues Telecom France.
2) How is it going after for updates ? Will I need to reflash everytime to update the tablet or the OTA update will still work normally ?
3) What about the flash counter ? I realized that the Knox counter would not be affected if I install an official version, you confirm ? But will the flash counter be affected even if it's a official ROM that I install ? And will it also cancel my warranty ? What impact will this flash have exactly on the device ?
4) Is it certain that my CSC will change for sure to French with a flash of my device for the P605XXUBMJ9_P605OXXBMJ2_XEF firmware ? Or is there a chance it won't change anyway ?
5) Last but not least, small detail I need to understand before I flash : what is that strange file " SS_DL.dll " which was in the zip package of the official rom for my tablet I downloaded SamMobile ? What should I do with it ? It must be loaded in Odin or elsewhere before flashing or should I just ignore it ?
Thank you in advance for your feedback. Sorry if those questions seem stupid to you...
And please should I be warned about other potential important problem not mentioned above before flashing ?
Of course I'll take my responsability but If you think of something else, please let me know...
I'm a newbe, ready to enter the Galaxy world, flash my first device and share with you my experience in return but I do not want to ruin everything because I can also just simply exchange my tablet for a multilingual one, even if it would cost me money...
Anyway, here is the descreption of my device. Thanx for your help !
Samsung Note 10.1 2014 P605 (32G - LTE) CSC : P605OLBBMJ2 (*#1234#)
Base Band (CP) : P605XXUBMJ4 - Kernel 3.4.0-1750146 - Build number JSS15J.P605XXUBMJ9 (AP) - Version Android : 4.3
Hi guys,
I'm thinking about buying a chinese version of the mate 20x for cheap, much cheaper than the global version. Was wondering if its possible to buy it and then install the L29 global rom. Is this possible? If so how?
.
Not sure if possible, but i dont recommend to change the original rom.
Appreciate the reply. But since youre not sure, does anyone know if its still possible to do this?
From what I understand (reading this forum), this requires unlocked bootloader and root.

Hi.. thanks for the reply. How do I unlock the bootloader?
.
Buy Chinese version with global rom. It raises price just about 35 to 50 dollars.
My suggestion

But thats the problem I want to avoid. I want to buy the chinese version without having to pay for the global rom so that i can install the global rom myself.
I will save you some trouble. I made the mistake of buying the Chinese version because I assumed the bootloader could be unlocked and the phone could be flashed. The answer to your question is, "no - you cannot root or flash the Mate 20 X as at this time".
Huawei has locked all bootloaders for all their devices and are no longer offering unlock codes. I have been unsuccessful in unlocking my EVR-AL00.
There are a few threads in this forum and there are developers looking for a workaround but there are none at this time.
I wanted to post a quick follow-up on my previous post. The Mate 20 X Chinese version is the first non-root phone I have owned in more than 10+ years. I will say, unlike my Samsung and OnePlus phones I have not found a need for root beyond changing the default launcher. The phone is customized so you can manage DPI settings (in and outside developer mode), auto launch/keep apps running in the background and even includes a good equalizer. If you have any specific questions about the Chinese model of the EVR-AL00 then feel free to PM me. I'm happy to try answering questions.

Hi dogatemycomputer,
Appreciate the heads up. But regarding rooting the mate 20x, there are threads here that show that you can root it and flash twrp. Am I missing something?
.
Yes.
Regarding XDA’s stance on Huawei’s decision to stop bootloader unlocking
Back in April, Huawei’s form to request a bootloader unlock code mysteriously disappeared. Late May, the form returned but with a warning that the service would no longer work after 60 days. As promised, Huawei’s form is no longer available, meaning it’s no longer possible to unlock the bootloader of Huawei or Honor devices. This has obviously been disappointing to many users on our forums, but it’s been especially disappointing for us, the XDA Portal team.
https://www.xda-developers.com/xda-huawei-decision-stop-bootloader-unlocking/amp/
Basically you could unlock the bootloader until May when Huewei decided you could no longer.

If you truly had read and understood threads about this, you'd know that unlocking the bootloader is no longer possible. Huawei shut this down, unfortunately.
I researched this before purchasing, as I too wanted the least expensive version which allowed changing the default launcher. The only solution at this point is a new L29, or a used AL00 that has root. Shame that if we want to change the launcher we're limited to the 6/128 version.

So whats the difference between the L29 and AL00 for someone to use in USA? And did you by chance install Emui 10 beta? If so let me know what you think of it.

1. Broken Google Location History & Sharing
2. No access to EMUI 10 beta
I use the Chinese version and there are some minor differences between the Global and Chinese version but the Chinese version has worked well for me.
Some Google services do not work. The two I have found are OK GOOGLE (always listening) and location sharing via Google Maps.
Outside of these 2 limitations I have not found a difference between the stock Chinese and Global versions. I have been very happy with my Mate 20 X and I have not found a reason to root the phone.

Thanks for your input. I think rooting may be overrated unless you install roms. But even then most roms have issues which convinces me personally to stick with stock.
.
I have no issues with Ok Google or location sharing via Google Maps. My AL00 is on Emui 10.0 & works perfectly, i’m in Europe btw. Of course, the big difference is when factory restoring must install manually the google apps like Play Store, Maps, Google Photos, Chrome, and so on. Otherwise i see no difference between global and chinese version.
solution chinese to global rom
for all those looking for solution to change firmware from Chinese to global, search on Facebook for ministryofsolutions. he can donthe job at minimum costs. had mine changed today, very happy.

Can you change my Huawei mate Xs from Chinese to global? I'd pay you if you can do it
Sorry for posting here but there isn't a MatePad 10.4 forum separately.
I have a Huawei MatePad 10.4 BAH3-W09. I tried to downgrade it to install google apps as many of you have tried as well. I didn't know it was a Chinese variant and tried to install a EU firmware. This resulted in a bootloop. It just bootloops into recovery every time. I tried recovery with histuite, wifi upgrade and via USB OTG. All fail. I tried factory reset and wiping cache. When I wiped the cache, the recovery changed to Chinese. I took it to the official Huawei service and they told me there's nothing anyone can do in Europe as it's a Chinese variant. Could anyone help me to get a chinese firmware for this? USB OTG update might still work with the correct firmware. At this point any working version will do doesn't have to be old enough to install google apps. Although that would of course be preferable, if it's even possible with Chinese firmware.
Here is a picture of the info on the box if it's necessary.
I did PM you, we'll give a try to BAH3-W09 C00 Emui10.1 B108 and B135 dloads.
hello, everyone. I have a tablet huawei matepad 10.4 model BAH3-W09 Chinese, and I want to change firmware by putting the Italian one, and now my question is, can I do it without creating bootloop? can I do that without sending the device to brick? and if I can do that as a program, I have to use? where can I find an EU firmware?
Thanks
@accery's BAH3 devices was finally fixed using paying tools and some time
@Mark887 I did PM'ed you about your BAH3 rebrand.

I'm a new user too (from France...), so correct me if i'm wrong !
This what I understood, the tab has a release date in 04-2020, and we need a firmware from an older date, so we can't rollback enough for a Googlefier install...
The only "workaround" I found is to use Vmos pro (free from their site) and then create a Virtual Machine which can add Google playstore etc...
But I think it's a lot too annoying for a kid...
Actually, I use petal search to find my kid's apps/games.
For Google stuff you have to use the Quick app center...
Sadly, I haven't find any solution for Family link...
Hopefully this can help you until there is a solution...

Hello everyone, by any means, does anyone know what's the stock firmware version for matepad 10.4 from Mexico? I lost the paper where I took the version before downgrading using the firmware from the googlefier post (10.1.0.118(C432E4R1P3)). Now I don't have OTA updates.

NO risk if labelled POCO F3.
Global worldwide standard EURO one included.
There is a case to change version from global to EEA without losing the device warranty? 'Poco F3'
If anyone knows for sure let them write it.
Thanks!
HI friends, I have made a mistake buying iqoo9 from Aliexpress without reading the OS description. I read somewhere that vivo is supposed to be offering the option for owners to switch to funtouch is that true will I be able to do that or was that just a rumor?
Thanks in advance
Hi guys,
same situation for me. I have bought the IQOO 9 pro PD2172A and I would try to flash PD2172F ROM but I don't want to brick my phone.
I hope there is someone expert who can help.
Thank you
Same situation for me!
Bad news guys I contacted Vivo. Switching is not possible as the Chinese version is made for Chinese audience and won't let you flash funtouch. At this point all I can hope for is to be at least able to access USB debugging and remove vivos bloatware.

Hi mate, can you post us the link please? I would try to convince them to give us the possibility to switch to Global rom. At the end we have spent a lot of money for this flagship and if they don't want to lose customers in the future, they should make us happy in someway.
So there's no single way for us now to be able to flash something different onto it? Nobody tried?
the main problem is to find the original ROM so in case of problems you can revert back.

Unfortunately you can't. They won't even let you use root account to use adb debugging mode to remove their crap bloatware. Unfortunate that an incredible phone like this with amazing specs is locked. I would be happy if they let me at least use adb
Do you think it's possibile at least to flash the Global version over the China version?

No the Chinese phone are branded with different model code even if we assume you manage to get to bootloader which they already have locked and when I asked them they said no. We don't allow bootloader access for phones made for Chinese markets
Traying to find the correct stock software to the Chinese version of Iqoo 9 Pro I found instead software to F model not A. I didn't know the F model does exist at all. Recently Vivo released this model (9 Pro) to India market but I am not convinced it is V2172F. Possibly this software could be downloaded to ours 9 Proses after bootloader unlocked. Am I right?

I don't know about the Indian version I looked for the model number but don't seem to find it. Either way there is no point of that. I already tried to do extract the boot file and attached it to magisk here is the catch you can't run that without bootloader unlocked
If you looking for chiness file, you may find on PAID website, such as ROMDevelopers ETC
Quick update I managed to remove a lot of vivos bloatware, not all but most of them using adb appcontrol just wanted to leave this here in case someone may find use of this info
Hi Moe990
I am doing the same and building a list of what is safe to remove.
A few weeks ago I removed an APP that disabled my NFC (Google Pay) - I had to factory reset my phone
Have you managed to remove :
- Music and Video players
- Phone / SMS / Contact APP
Thanks
Nah not everything is removable. But I'm glad with what I removed so far
I noticed I cannot google back up my phone. its greyed out ... so annyoing
