I'm a newbie having a newbie question:
In my place, some retailer imports O2 XADII from China, which has ROM in Chinese language, then flash the ROM to an English version. After doing that, it claims that the device is imported from Singapore or Hongkong and therefore asks for a higher price. It even puts the chinese deivive into an orgianal box of Singpore/HK one to cheat its customers.
I wonder if there is any (simple and quick) way to identify the the original ROM pre-installed in an XDA?
Your help is very much appreciated.
Thanks

You should be able to flash any language ROM to your phone you want. I looked up the original vodophone ROM on the wiki for a T7272, http://www.vodafone.de/downloadarea....1_Radio_Sign_52.63.25.34_1.14.25.05_Ship.exe, so this should be what you need. Before you flash anything, please continue to read the wiki and stickied posts and HardSPL your phone. It'll save you lots of trouble.
Best of luck my friend.
It does not matter from where you the phone came from, you can flash ROM's of any language, as long as they are for the same phone model
i have a LG G PRO LITE DUAL ( lg g pro lite D686 ) that doesn't have FRENCH as one of the system language ( when you go to settings....>language & input .....> .... there is no option for french, and as a result, i CANNOT change the phone system language to french. i've tried all sort of apps ( locale text, morelocale2, text and locale, etc etc etc ) the only thing that happened was that part of the phone was changed to french, but not the system language. the majority of it is still in english.
I was told that the ONLY way i would be able to add/install/get french as a language on the phone is to either
1- CHANGE THE OPERATING SYSYTEM. the one on my phone is android 4.1.2. i was told that some operating systems like 4.2.2, or 4.4, and even 4.0.2, which i currently have on my htc phone come with french as part of the system language.
or
2- install some kind of custom ROM.
I would really appreciate it if someone out there could help me with either one of those options since I have no clue how to go about accomplishng any of these things, or if there is another way i can get french on my phone, please let me know as well.
I would even consider making a small donation, if you have paypal to thank you for your time.
some basic info about the phone:
its brand new, unlocked and unused, so i dont have to worry about backing up any data whatsoever.. i plan on shipping it to a french speaking country, which is why i absolutely MUST change it to french.
its an LG G PRO LITE DUAL phone
android version 4.1.2
and its already been rooted.
please help.
Looks like you might just be out of luck. There doesn't seem to be any development for that phone. Pretty sure the bootloader is locked meaning you can't install a custom recovery = no custom roms. Doesn't seem to be enough interest in the phone by developers to try any work arounds. Most likely because it is MTK based instead of their more normal Snapdragon processor phones.

I have got the same phone here in Czech republic with Czech language on board. So it seems that yours is from distribution for other countries.
Did you try Custom Locale from Google Play Store?
Yes, it should be some EU distribution, but i haven´t entered the sim card yet. GF has to go to carrier for cutting the SIMcard to microSIM
When the sim card is entered, the phone should set itself somehow by the region of the simcard. If this won´t help, i will try manualy set by #country code#. Today i founded code for my country finally.
so it doens´t work, the custom locale only could set keyboard to "czech" but settings and everything is in english, country code "works" the same way
when i root the phone, can i install there any czech localizated system or FW even if its EU distribution ?
thanks a lot
Hi to all.
Could someone who has the Honor 9 in Chinese rom please give a full description of how it looks like and what are the cons of having a Chinese version device? I heard google apps are missing but that issue can be solved easily. what about the language and menu? If you choose English language would there be a problem with Chinese characters and stuff or you can enjoy a fully English phone?
A side from the fact that you have to install Google Service onto your device yourself. There isn't much of a difference between the Chinese version of the Honor 9 and the international version.
Hallo everybody who is prepared to help me!
I received chinese phone GREE G0215D (Android version 6.0.1, processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 820). It does not work in Europe because it does not support Google, resp. it is impossible to install GooglePlay etc. Evenmore, in spite of choosing an English language option it speaks in chinese language very often. I supose it needs reinstalling of its ROM if it is possible.
Is there anybody who has en experince with such a change and woudld be so nice and could help me, pls?
I am living in Prague, Czech Republic and I appriciate a local contact if any available. At the same time I do not refuse any other advise , of course!
Thank you very much in advance!
