Hi, I have a question maybe someone can clarify.. If I buy a LeTv directly from them in China does the ROM come with English, like Xiaomi's, or just Chinese?
Gearbest, AliExpress
Hi, I just bought a Le 2. I was wandwring the net for a while because I was concerned with the question of the multilingual ROM. I was only able to find two places were they offered that possibility: Gearbest and AliExpress. I bought it from Gearbest and it came as advised.
Unfortunatelly I'm experiencing a lot of trobles becayse de ROM (the EUi) has come with tons of bugs, some of them really importants.
That's my experience. I hope it will be usefull for you

Hi!
I want to buy a P780 from AliExpress, and some stores told me the versions they use, which you recommend I buy?
I use the Portuguese language.
VIBEROM_V1.0_1347_3_ST_P780
P780_ROW_S110_130629
You bought from a store in Aliexpress and can you recommend any?
Thanks a lot!
In my opinion the ROM version does not matter, because you are there can give any custom ROM that suits you the most (on the net or this forum are many guides how to do it). You chose differently by price and chiefly by the seller of positive feedback. Distributor who has about 99% of the positive-going feedback can be measured reliably. I bought this phone from pandawill.com (etotalk is good too). On alliexpress may be some fakes.

Hi!
Thanks for the reply.
What you bought in Pandawill.com came with which version?
And, I really wanted a pure Android ROM, it exists?
What ROM you use?
Thanks a lot!

I dont remember which ROM was there when I bought this phone (but I know there was some ROW multi language ROM) because now I have changed to custom ROM because I preffered pure android.
I am using ROM : LiFe 0.7 (Its a pure android). http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/development/life-rom-lenovo-p780-t2666626 This ROM is in English (not problem for me, I am Slovak, but understand english) , but when U use app more locale most of installed app will be in selected language.
VIBE rom feels like an IOS ripoff (at least VIBE 1.5)
The interface is not Android-user intuitive, and the icons look childish.
Also, I noticed that VIBE doesn't work with a magnetic case.
If you prefer the more standard Android interface, don't choose VIBE I'd say.
But it's very easy to flash anything else on the phone
Good luck!
Lenovo P780

My sister bought a silver one from lenovo-lephone.com and it seems in good quality. The ROM version is more universal.
Hello XDA community.
I have doubts about what model of watch to buy. I saw on a online store a Stratos+ model, on the description i can read the only notable difference is a leather strap, the sapphire screen and that english laguange was not available yer for this particular model.
Now my question is:
Can i use all the methods on this forums to unlock bootlader, load a new room on the stratos+ model? or this is a totally different model that need new methods to upload customize rooms?
Greetings.
Yes, you can!
I have one.

stratos vs stratos+ is just the saphire glass, otherwise all the rest is identical, as far as i could tell.
i was also playing with the idea getting the + version but for a gadget which will need to be replaced in about 2 years due to a bad battery or other defects, it was not worth the approx. 70 € ( 140€ vs 210€ )
Do we have any info is this device coming to Europe ?? Or where to buy in china ?
tx
I don't think it's will come to eu (read that meny time on internet)
I bought mine on TradingShenzhen
Delivered less than 2 weeks
700€ ?? Well, that is close to asus zenfone 9. Hard to choose
I also bought mine at TradingShenzhen. Took just under 2 weeks to arrive.
How's the experience on Xiaomi 12S? I'm planning to get one too.
Issue I found so far with the Chinese ROM
1. Android auto - communication error 22, previously worked with my old phone ( thinking to flash to xiaomi eu rom)
2. Android home - casting to Chromecast, tried once didn't work
3. Whatsapps - choppy video when sharing with others. I think that's a Whatsapp issue
Otherwise it's been very good

According to some information, 12s series are only available in China, because the Leica authorization is currently only open for Chinese. Leijun says that the next generation of flagship will enter the global market.
Maybe you can try to buy it on Taobao (a Chinese online shopping platform), some of the shops support overseas delivery.

If you're not like Chinese and plan on using this phone as a daily driver than you are probably out of luck as this phone does not sell out of China. Even if you managed to get hold of it warranty and other benefits would not work outside of China.
If you are like me who simply wants to try out Chinese hardware and flash Custom roms than I suggest you wait a bit for devs who manage to get their hands on this device or when Xiaomi releases enough code for custom rom developers for them to churn out a good aosp-like rom.
Of course there is still the issue of this device being Chinese-only so non-Chinese custom rom devs would not pay much attention to this device.
The latest device that supports a mainstream AOSP custom rom (I regard LineageOS and pixelexperience as mainstream) is the Mi11, and that has been out for two years now.
You of course can choose to use the stock Chinese rom, With all the Mi bloatware and ads, other Chinese bloatware, Play services bugs, and you would have to sideload the Play Store.
With the money you are paying for this phone (and the added shipping fee to ship outside China) along with the fact that warranty (or even general) support is only in China (which means if you run into issues with your phone you would have to send it back in China to fix the issues) I suggest you look for a different phone that is officially sold and supported in your region.

Did you manage to get it flashed to English? I like to know as well. I bought from a Chinese website and it arrived in Chinese firmware. Using it outside China, it doesn't have the blood pressure function enabled (my main reason for buying it). It does not have Alexa as well. I don't understand half the texts. The vibration is so weak I missed all my workout goal notifications and morning alarms even after I customised the vibration patterns. I need to flash to Global firmware at the very least to lower my increased blood pressure from buying it.
I have been thinking about buying a Lenovo Legion y70, and the truth is that I have several questions.
The first is that if the cell phone allows the transmission of screen and sound in the discord?
Also, what is more recommended? Buy a version with the global rom installed on aliexpress, or buy it new and sealed and install it myself?
And also how is the experience with this cell phone? Is it recommended or are there better options?

1. Yeah why wouldn't it? You can do this on any android phone.
2. There is no global rom version. Some sellers off to install google play for you since it doesn't come with it. Either option is fine, but if you don't know how to do it and are going to have trouble figuring it out, having the seller do it will be more convenient, but otherwise it's not too hard to do. Keep in mind you are still using the CN rom, which while it does have English, and other languages, will still have the typical chinese rom bloat.
3. Mine hasn't arrived yet so I cant speak from experience, but if your budget isn't more than 300ish USD, you won't find anything with better hardware. However, this doesn't make it the best option, unless you don't mind being stuck on the chinese rom with no future updates. I think its worth spending the extra for a phone with a good global rom, especially if your carrier is supported (a lot of the alternative options didn't support my carrier), but I personally couldn't afford it which is why I've purchased one of these. If your carrier supports it, I think the Realme GT Neo 5 SE, and Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Turbo are better options. They cost around 330-340 USD, have similar performance, better body weight/size, and much better software. Only thing they're really missing is dc dimming, and good frequency bands/carrier support.
I have a discord server for Legion Y70 information, and discussion here https://discord.gg/r5VMszTGVr, look in the #interested-buyers channel for more info.
