flashing MTK6572 device - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I recently got 2 mobile devices labeled "Lenovo" I doubt if its genuine but I dont care as I got them for free. The problem is that the phone have no options for languages other than english or Chinese. I would like to flash the phone in order to install android and use Greek language. Is that possible? Do I need a custome ROM for doing this?

Xolo Lava A1000 Language

Hello, I'm new here and I hope I am not in the wrong topic. I want to flash or install a new Language. The phone is from India and I'm from Germany.
I need the German Language. Can I flash any ROM to my phone or I need to wait still a ROM for my phone appears or got released?
I installed the "morelocale2" but it didn't traslated completely my phone.
Hope you can help me.

Which rom should i install on a lg g pro lite that supports french?

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.

change chinese firmware

Hello there!
I bought a Huawei Honor 5x from an Australian website (I'm currently living in NZ). When I got my phone, I noticed the box/instructions were in chinese. When I turn the phone on, it was the same thing. I tried to change the language but there were some sections like logs from update and some menus they were in chinese. I tried to change the firmware but it didnt work (probably because my model is KIW-TL00 and I downloaded a different firmware). Now, a stupid question: there is a way to change the model of the phone to be able to install a US firmware? and if it's not possible, there is a way to change the firmware to a english version?
Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem and question. I bought one of these and it turned out to be the Chinese version. Even after changing the Android language to english there are still many chinese messsages. Any advice how to load a different firmware, or at least change all the Huawei messages to english? Thanks.

As far as I know , there will be no language packs for Android phones . it should be available in the native way . if u want above feature ,then u at least have to try a ROM which includes it or else flash a stock ROM of same model which includes the requested language . (don't flash full ROM , flash only system , boot.IMG )

Advice on Getting the Chinese Ver.

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.
