Hi
I want to buy a chinese Mate 20 X but i read on alyexpress this :
"Because the Google company prohibit the user installing GMS by themselves,for chinese firmware, after upgrading to EMUI9.0 (Android 9.0), the Google Play services will stop working,we suggest you don`t update the new firmware to EMUI 9.0 (Andoird 9.0)..or choose Global Firmware,Global firmware no problem."
Does it mean i can t have Gapp with android 9 on chinese version ?
Can i change firmware to global version ? if i can i need to unlock bootloader i presume ?
Thx

Rubbish
Google is working on China and global version.
China version stick with China region on setup in appgallery, then search for Google play, it'll show up, then update it. For some annoying reason it's installed but hidden it china mate 20 X version
Maybe OK Google won't work properly on China version. That's about it really
so why they write this thing ??? if we can udpate to android 9 and playstore works fine ?
Im using chinese mate 20 X phone. Every Huawei phones has gms by default. There is no need to install anything. Just login in your Google account from settings thats it

Buddy, mate 20x default comes with Android 9.0 (Pie); EMUI 9 buy Chinese ROM if you have the patience to do a lot of modifications etc..
else, please buy the international variant and use it as out of the box.

Mate 20X isn't Honor 8x!! I have the China version 20x (EVR-AL00) and as stated earlier it comes with EMUI 9.0.0 pre-installed and had to install playstore via Huawei's app store then install thw Google apps I wanted. And everything worked. That was before I unlocked the bootloader (jumped on getting a code early and before code db got closed) and have been running globalized custom rom ever since. Now Ressurrection Remix rom just released this morning for 20x and will give this amazing phone the AOSP support it deserves.

Someone said that the GMS has been installed in expensive phone of Huawai, such like mate20,p20.... . But not for the cheap phone - honor 8x. So Mate 20x can install google play directly.
My honor 8x /emui 8.2 can install google play after I installed the GMS . But I can't find the GMS installer for emui 9.0.
Hi
I'm a proud owner of a BLN-L21 but it is stuck at EMUI 5.0.3 since last year.
How can I update to EMUI 8.0, so I can install ROMs such as Lineage 16.0/Android PIe ones?
Kind regards

Look for BLN-21
Then try the right package for your region.

bln-l21 (nfc) -> bln-l22 (india/chinese variant) = no nfc
Anyone can summarize how to upgrade BLN-L21 UK version (firmware BLN-L21C432B382) to EMUI 8.0 other than converting to Chinese/Indian first please?
If anyone have converted to Chinese from BLN-L21, then let us know how its going? I want to upgrade so that I can put one of the latest ROMS as this is the prerequisite of most ROMS. Thanks
Would this do it - at least its European (German)?

Hi
It seems that the convertion is mandatory. But some more feedbacks than "loosing nfc" would be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Dont think we are loosing anything apart from NFC because that is the only difference we had in region specific models.
BTW there was one more guide to update but that will convert to Chinese version i guess. I guess it was by Khan.

I suppose forcing the nfc flag to true in the dedicated file .prop doesn't work to regain nfc on Indian or Chinese rebranded ?

I've seen both guide to rebrand to Chinese or Indian version guys, I still wonder which one will offer me more Android 9 custom rom versions. If you have any advice?
Any custom roms will work with nfc? (Android 8 ones?)
Thx for the hard work, your advices and guides are still very helpful in 2021! Just bootloader unlocked and rooted a EU honor 6x. Only paid DC unlocked version get me the unlock code in 2021.
But stick to the thread.... BLN-L21 is losing just nfc to be rebranded, OK. Now any advantage Indian VS Chinese version? Any custom rom for directly the EU version?

I would prefer Indian lme because there are more chances of bricking while moving from Chinese to other versions as there are no custom bin. Once i rebranded to i shuffled easily to EU, US and other variants + custom ROMs

Goog to know about the the Custom bin.
Indian will so be the choice, even if a user had some troubles some days ago using the guide to Indian debrand, maybe it should be updated/corrected :
[ROM][Treble][9.0]AOSP 9 for Honor 6X

I'll copy his post in the dedicated guide thread for Indian de brand, if he didn't yet
European versions start receiving Android 10 beta stable, the final version before full release. It also brings February patch.
Source
I haven't recieved the update yet.
Here is the download link. What I don't know is if I can flash it over a non beta ROM, I am on European version but not in beta program. Also, If I can flash it, is it as any OTA, in Update menu, or in recovery. Thanks
wait for OTA !

It's not in the changelog but i think miui themes are supported again in Europe after the upgrade. I'm not getting the 'Themes are not supported in your region' message anymore but this instead;
Stuck in dark mode..anyone else?
The good news is that they fixed widevine to L1. Netflix finally works in fhd

I think you had to read the lettres too
In PGGEUXM 11.0.3.0...the P may be for Pie - Android 9
In QGGEUXM 11.0.2.0...the Q may be for Android 10
Got the update this morning in Germany.
I had to uninstall Netflix to get it to work but I finally have HD videos.
The Themes app now works too.

If you have the a505f model you can try the indian firmware (google this :A505FDDU4BTC4) but i advise you to wait for your region's firmware since it may be impossible to go back to Android 9 after the upgrade.
Here's the link F India firmware
https://sourceforge.net/projects/samsungfw/files/SM-A505F/INS/A505FDDU4BTC4/
I flashed the INS firmware, no issues so far. Camera is still crappy, and the fingerprint sensor is still the same.

Looks like Samsung is about to push out a revised package for the A505F for India.
A505FDDU4BTC4 original release, A505FDDS4ATB6 is what is being reported on Sammobile today.

Technically speaking, the first package was the Update and the second is a Security update.
I'm a little rusty on my Samsung naming convention, but I just went through my old files from my Note 8 days and it was consistent.
U for version update, S for security update.
Also the 4th letter from the end is another indicator of the version. A = OS at release, B = 1st version upgrade, C = second and so on.
So I have a feeling this new file is still Android 9, and is just a security update.
A505FDDU4BTC4 indicates Android 10 version upgrade.
A505FDDS4ATB6 indicates Security update for release OS version.

It's a shame and completely unacceptable that an Android 10 build released in 2020 doesn't have full camera2api support. It's something that was introduced with stock Android Lollipop 5.0!
Why is camera2api not working. Is there any telegram group of devs where I can request for the same?
Well I'm not getting the update... From India
Does it differ depending on manufacturing date or is it always the same? I'd assume it's probably different for global and eu versions for example.
Is it Android 11 straight out of the box or could I avoid updating it if it's android 10?
Have you done any research before? F3 came with Android 11 out of the box, but the MIUI depends of the date when the F3 is manufactured.
I was confused since I own another xiaomi device which is running MIUI 12.0.5 and it's android 10.
The articles I found for the F3 state that it came with MIUI 12.0.1 but said android 11 which made no sense to me. That's why I'm asking.
It came with MIUI 12.0, which is Android 11.

It really doesn't have much difference, the only thing that really can be interesting is the memory extension.

I also have Memory Extension on my Xiaomi.eu Weekly Custom ROM, but I don't use it because 6 GB RAM is plenty for me.
Munchy has noted about that feature, that it doesn't do much and that there's no indication of it being on, and the Recents still showing "6 GB". He said that in that same video I think.
