Somehow I'm not able to display chinese characters in the music player except only if I switch the region settings to Taiwan. My question is how do I display chinese characters while in the U.S. region? Anyone know?

Try some vpn and changes your location to UK
I'm not sure, but I don't think you can, can you? Wasn't this answered recently elsewhere?
I'm in the UK and I just set the locale to Italy. Appears to have made no obvious difference... although the thought of pasta suddenly seems a lot more appetising
Hello,
Just bought a global Pocophone f1 (made in China) 6/128gb variant but for some weird reason there is no option of face unlock? Is it supposed to come with a software update? Any help you be appreciated. Screenshot attached. Thank you.

I can only get it to work when I select India. Nothing for Italy or Hong Kong and I can't even select China.
All a bit of a pain since I'm in Ireland. I'm getting served up Indian versions of websites whenever I search for anything.
I'm on miui 9.6.14.0 fwiw
Anyone know of a different workaround?
It has more regions now after update
Switch to Xiaomi.eu is has it enabled by default

I opted out of that at set up. Just had a search through the frustratingly disorganised miui settings menus to try to confirm this, but couldn't find it. Could you give me a pointer as to where it is please?
To clarify, I'm not getting any adverts, just notifications about Indian sporting events etc

Search will not help you. Open every xiaomi app, go to its settings and you will find somewhere personal adds or something like that

That is not the problem.
The problem (and it's not a big problem) is that I can only use face unlock when I select India as my location - that means I get loads of Indian sports news, which I don't really want.
So, back to the question I was asking, is there another fudge that can enable ir face unlock regardless of location setting?

Oh OK, sorry I cannot help you with that I moved phone, and it will pass some time before I get another one. I am curious where do you actually see those news?? In a app, or you just receive them as notification? It has to come from somewhere

Apparently nope. The best hit is to update to 9.6.22, then face unlock will work while having Poland, Spain or France set as a region. News choice should be a bit better
Switch to xiaomi.eu no ads, also those news you are talking and it face unlock works on all region, actually there's no region on it. The only downside is that you need to unlock bootloader if you don't have it yet

There seem to be a few variant of the ROM depending on the region. Major difference base on what everyone is saying there is that the Chinese rom is horrible and the global/UK rom is better.
Well I have a OPX China version coming this week. It was a decent deal that why i went for it instead of the other version. So how screwed am I?
Is the China version really crippled? Is there a way to at least make it similar to the global rom? I know google play need to be installed and some app needs colorOS apps need to be removed.
How about notification and ram management? And major difference compare to the global ROM? Thanks for any feed back.
People complained about not being able to add a custom launcher. But you could always use adb to remove the coloros launcher to force the device to use the custom launcher. Also, all global variants are exactly the same, there really is no distinction between them.
My GF is using chinese edition and I am using AU edition, and both of us are in US, so I think I am able to tell you something.
Chinese edition is really for China(I am a Chinese so I know it). It will be perfect in China, but a disaster anywhere else in the world. You can always install google play in the original store and also uninstall some stock software and replace the launcher with adb. But three things are hard to change:
1. The background task is limited to 5.
2. Only the white listed app can auto start, other than the app in the list, only 5 are allowed.
3. G assistant can't work well, and G feed for Nova launcher as well. You will never be able to use ok google or hey google.
And for global version. The background management is worse than what I did with Brevent. And there is no great animation when you do super vooc charge. Other things are perfect.
Oppo is working on allowing bl unlock and Wuxianlin bet her own weibo account for it, so you will be able to flash global version soon.
Thank you for the great input!
I guess the China version is really crippled
Can you change the texting app to 3rd party and/mms like textra?
Whats the point of the 8gig of ram if they won't utilize it.

I keep thinking that if someone can find the variant identifiers in the roms we can make the phone think the international or eu rom is the Chinese one and spoof it into allowing it to install.

Thanks for that very useful. If I may ask couple of questions.
Can you please confirm global version doesn’t restrict notifications? You receive notifications as any other Android phone.
Can you get notifications on lock screen?
Default launcher is easy to change

That’s a relief as the whole reason me for getting rid of the Chinese version and buying the global version was due to the terrible restrictions .

I’m looking to buy global version as the Chinese version is terrible phone. Limited notifications, unable to change default launcher
Can anyone confirm if global version receives all notifications like normal android phone?
Also default can be changed?
Which model no to buy?
Thanks
Yes. FCM working. Au version preferred for the price.
Thanks for confirming buddy

One person has implied that global restricts notifications to 9 is that true?
Also do you have global version yourself?
Thanks
