Question How to change my OP9 pro indian firmware to european ? - OnePlus 9 Pro

So my OP9 pro is a Chinese variant that came preloaded with oxygen OS out of the box but Indian variant, the phone works well except for one problem, it doesn't support 5G where i am ( Dubai using etisalat) while my wife's 9 pro came preloaded with the european firmware and 5G works fine on the same network, is there a way to switch to the latest european build ( C.62) and will i need to do a factory reset ?
thanks in advance.

I've seen these before, the phone does support the frequencies of my carrier, but for some reason it wont connect to 5G at all.

Global rom has 5G I don't think EU rom does. I could be wrong though. I had to switch to Global when I converted before to get 5G. But maybe it has changed since then.

How to distinguish between China and global version of whyred?

No, no ,no
China and Global verison are very similar. After installing LOS 15.1 it's going to be even harder to guess which one is it. 3 GB of RAM tells that's it's definitely not a Pro verison, that is available in India. So It's China or Global
Global version supports LTE B4 and LTE B20. So if You are able to connect to those bands, than You have a global version

THanks MikiGry. Is there any good app that helps me find out which LTE my phone supports? I tried several but only one of them show that my LTE band is 3, and sometimes 7. But I probably need the LTE band capability and not the current band connected.

No I don't have the box. But I checked the IMEI online and it says my phone is MEC7S, which seems to be the Chinese model :crying:
But that IMEI checking website might be wrong, since my phone got only 4GB of RAM.

Differences between European/US/International ROMs?

Hi
I haven't found anything regarding this. Could someone tell me the differences between the ROMs?
I actually use a Chinese H1900 variant with international OOS and I was wondering if there is any benefit for me to use EU as I'm in France.
Thanks

Not really, eu rom lacks equilazer settings due to European laws. India rom have some specific benefits like cloud service 5gb. Other than that only hardware changes is band difference. Tested all on my hd1900. Using international

Just about to get a 7T and will need to flash either Global / Europe - do you think the equalizer settings are worth going with Global (currently run Bass Booster as 5T doesn't have equalizer either) or stick with Europe as UK based ?
Was there ever a full stock 10.0.6 International ROM posted? I flashed the European version when it was found but want to do a clean install and use International. The OP website only has 10.0.3 in the support page.

Since you have the HD1900, if you flash the EU or International rom, does it unlock the other lte bands? I'm considering buying the HD1900 version but everything I've read states that it lacks the lte bands I need (61 & 71).
Thanks!
Its definitely lacks those bands. Use Oxygen updater app from play store, there can be downloaded all latest updates. Just see in the startup menu what rom is currently on the device. Under my dwvice menu oneplus 7t is for international version, oneplus 7t( eu) is for European version and last will be oneplus ( India) India version. Then go to 3 dot menu and choose version you like to install same naming as the step before. Then select in update method full update, or try incremetal update if you don't see latest version of software now will be 10.0.6. Just follow instructions in the app and you will have new android version faster than the others. Using international version for two weeks no problems on my hd1900 Chinese verion of the phone.

Don't worry those bands are needed only in rural areas in Usa from my knowledge by far. If you live in Europe flash international you will have equilazer unlocked. Some users seem to don't have equilazer unlocked, so you will find only if you flash yourself.
One more thing before flashing. you will need to have (older) or the (same) version rom varian. No posible to downgrade.

I discovered it won't let me flash from the EU version to the International version (both 10.0.6). It sees the International version as being older than EU and prevents the flash. If anyone has an idea how to force it I'd love to hear!
Indian version have call recording, cricket scores, cloud storage, caller identification, sms visualization and few more i guess.
Not sure which of these features have reached other versions now.

You will need to wait for full version of international in app. Now is available only incremetal and thats the reason you can't flash.

Hi, i have the 7t hd1903 model. Can I flash through the local updater the European firmware over the global one with a Locked boot loader? (of course with the same firmware version) thank you
I always thought it was mostly hardware variations rather than software - mostly due to the LTE bands differ depending on the region.
OP's made it so it's not as attractive to buy a phone outside your region due to that. For example, on the original OP7, they left out a few critical bands T-Mo and AT&T needed here for full LTE compatibility. It would still work on the other bands, of course, but it may not work everywhere the US version would.
I think that's stupid, personally, but it seems to be more for marketing than anything else. I think it'd be less hassle to just have one phone with as many bands as possible, then just put different software on it to comply with the legal requirements of those markets.

The OOS native recording module gives you call recording on the US ROM, it's what I use.
Save the zip to your phone
You need to uninstall the module prior to any oos update. You can reinstall after the update.

Question Can I change my Indian Software OOS to the International/European OOS?

I posted this on OP9 forum but OP9 Pro forum looks more active, sorry in advance.
I bought a OP9 chinese model LE2110, my software is oxygen OS 11.2.3.3 LE25DA (indian)
I want global version because this one has some bloatware and indian company cloud notifications that i dont want.
Is it possible to change it to international version? i downloaded the global one but i cant install it (local) because its a downgrade or equal to my current one. i updated to the latest version when setting up my phone.
The chinese version/model doesnt have wireless charging, so if there is a problem with compatability, can I change back to the indian variant?
note: I dont care about my data i can format everything, my old phone still works and I can transfer all data later.

i think u can as i have changed from EU to indian OOS - i couldnt wait to try 11.2.4.4 lol
But the key is it must be later version that yr current OOS which means u are on 11.2.3.3 to EU 11.2.3.3 it will not work - that was based on my experience.
Agree with u the bloatwares are annoying.. perhaps i will go back to EU once a newer than 4.4 is out.
So far, all seems to work. I cant comment for 5G as its not available in my telcom

Wait so if a new update comes, and I DONT update. I can manually download the new international version from Oneplus website and do a local update? Then It will switch to the international version?

5G, 4g+ (carrier aggregation), volte, google pay? and in which country are you?
Oh I just did local upgrade from India 4.4 to eu 4.4, it works.. So I think u can downloading and do it. Worst case, use oxygen updater and change back to global and revert
I see.. when you switched to eu 4.4, did it remove Cloud Service (indian version has this advertisement)? or Red Cable Club?

Check Signals/Bands for each phone version, and the signals and bands that your carrier use. You can find them in the specifications for each phone

Question LE2120 Chinese variant has Indian FIrmware ((LE15 DA). Is it possible to change it to global firmware?

I got my 9 pro yesterday and it has indian firmware which i don't like. Is it possible to change it to global one. I'm on 11.2.5.5.
Also is it possible to use msm tool for Indian variant on this handset?
Thnx. Really hoping to get some answers
It should be, you should be able to download the global firmware from OPTeam's list of them and just flash in local update.
Yes, you can.
The only problem is 11.2.5.5 is too new, there is no full upgrade package yet. You can try flash an older global version rom, but with the risk of brick your phone. Through I think worst could happen is you have to wipe your phone.
You can find download link for global rom in this thread.
Q: How do I switch to Europe or Global OS?
A: Wait for the new version, download the #Full package and Local Update it. If you have Magisk installed, you can try to Local Update after entering the following command (need ROOT access).
resetprop ro.build.date.utc 1400000000

That's my case too.
I'm also in the 11.2.5.5 Indian SW.
So it's better to wait for a Global 11.2.5.5 or newer to flash over it? Right? It's not necessary to erase all data?
Does someone know what are the benefits from Global over the Indian? It seems that OnePlus is giving more attention to Indian market (updates, features, etc)

From what I can tell, there is no discernable difference in the firmware other than bloat directed at the Indian market. I'm also on LE2120 in the U.S. running the DA firmware. Everything on my device is fully functional as far as WiFi, 5G connectivity and all that. I debloated all the Indian specific bloat (red cable club, cloud storage and the like, especially since it doesn't work here in the States). I expect you can flash other regions firmware without issue or data loss so long as the other regions firmware is "newer" than what you're already on, otherwise it simply won't let you using local upgrade.
I'm also on LE2120 in the UAE running out of box coloros, then downgraded to the DA firmware, today I have updated to Global 11.2.5.5 . Everything on my device is fully functional except 5G (ETISALAT) and Invalid VIP NV's:2500 at every restart

Question which oneplus 9 pro version do I have

I have oneplus9 phone.
Oxygen updater says my phone is India version
when I look in setting->about phone the model is LE2120 which is CN version AFAIK. thats what the Oxygen updater also present.
But the OxygenOS version is 11.2.10.10 LE15DA which is India version according to google
so which version do I have?
2120 is the Chinese version, but you can flash Indian or EU/Global firmware anytime, hence why the Oxygen updater app thinks you have the Indian version. Afaik, it doesn't affect the functionality of the phone.
Right, model number and firmware version are two different things because the model number (LE2120) is your hardware, and the firmware version (DA) is your software.

I don't know a lot about ColorOS or its differences, but it's probably just a matter of personal preference. The two are going to be unified at some point in the near future anyway.
Right?
I am from Germany and I have
phone LE2120 (Chinese) and
build LE15 DA (India)
So i can flash the Europea build...
Will this reset my data?

What OOS version do you have right now?
If you download the full update (not incremental) that is the same version or newer than your current version and install it via system update, that method does not wipe the phone.
If you have to downgrade/rollback due to no full update being available for your version or newer, that would wipe the phone. Or just wait for the next full update to be released.
Actually i have
