I bought a Mediapad X1 from China via AliExpress.
I cannot make anything from a limited Chinese ROM.
Anybody who has international ROM or can extract it from the international version, please help!

The international version hasn't been released yet... I bought mine (4G version) through Lenteen from Hong-Kong, and everythings works fine ! I installed google apps, rooted my phone
I know that Huawei was supposed to release it at the end of may in France but any news nowhere on the web... none even from Huawei themself !
So we just have to wait and see...

Does it sync your Google contacts correctly? If so, what did you need to do to get that working?

Thank you for the reply, some questions:
1. So, yours is also a Chinese version?
2. Please post the link for rooting.
3. After rooting, install the GApp, version for 4.2.2? And then we can go for anything, like Nova launcher?

When the phone reboot, after you renamed the file, gapps are automatically installed by the phone.. You don't have to use recovery mode at all !!
And for now, i'm not sure that CWM is available for this model... I think i saw it on a chinese forum but when i translate it's too messy and i have to be registered on this forum to download it so... we have to wait that someone make a post here in english with th e CWM in download...

Okay, I see the point, we just install portions of Google apps we need, starting with play store, the any thing you need.
I do hope we'll have CWM, or at least hardware ways to boot into download and recovery mode.
The KitKat may be far from reality?

We'll get Kikat firmware on this phone for sure, we just have to wait from Huawei to rolling out this version.
It's not portions of google apps as when you do this procedure i explained, ALL the gapps are installed automatically on the phone.
Basically, Huawei made a script in the phone for not allowing these apps to be installed, but when you rename this file, the script is no longer available, then all the gapps are installing after the next reboot !
Mediapad X1 7D-503L
The only deference is the directory:
/ cust / channel / charm_china_l / xml / ( charm_china_l not charm_china_u)
and i use the command as su
mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs /cust
because when It try to rename the UNSTALL_APK.XML I take the error "Read-only file system"
thanks
X1 undetectable by the PC
I have GApps Syncing quite fine without rooting, except the contacts sync which is missing from the sync list. I see your steps are very straight forward, but unfortunately my X1 is not recognized by the PC, although I've installed HiSuite from Huawei website. I've also tried to install Huawei device driver for X1 from this site, but still unrecognized. Accordingly GeniusRoot is unable to detect and root my X1.
I'm Win 8.1 (both 32 and 64 bits), and I've tried to do all these procedures with Compatibility model for Win7, run as administrator, yet the X1 is till not detected by the PC.
Also USB Debugging is enabled in Developer Options.
Any idea what's the reason for this?
More info about my version:
Baseband: 21.529.00.00.000
Kernel: 3.0.8-01317-gcd83a45 [email protected] #1
Build Number: 7D-501uV100R001C233B013

OK I managed to figure out the solution
Used Root File Manager to rename and voila!! Renamed the file, restart device and got all the Google stuff setup on the phone
Now there is this second problem which is a big pain in the arse
I can't add a second Google account on the phone to get all my contacts..........
Under settings -> accounts -> add account -- there is no option to select "Google" !!!!
Have anyone also face this problem and is there any solution??
Thanks in advance for the help
Guys, you do not need root or tricks to install Google stuff.
Open the Huawei app market. Search for Google. Click on the big Google banner at the top of the page. You get a dedicated page of Google stuff. There you have download links for play store, all the Google apps, and if you can figure out a little Chinese, calendar sync and contact sync software too.

I can confirm this is true. I did a search for "gms" rather than Google - tap on the big link you get at the top of the results page, which takes you to a page of all the Google apps and services, and install everything! (You can always uninstall what you don't need later). No root required, and everything is syncing properly - calendar, contacts, tasks etc. Super easy.

Danny here's how to fix it, and u don't need root
if u have rooted and edited the unstall_apk.xml, best is download and flash the stock ROM first:
http://consumer.huawei.com/cn/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=20241 (click 立即下载 on the right)
u can also ignore it but all preinstalled google apps will become system apps, and if u've deleted some huawei bloatware u might not be able to OTA update latest B006 firmware
All the Google stuff can work perfectly even can add multiple Google accounts. Best thing is, u don't need root. Here's how:
1) Go to app centre - all - brand and look for the one with 谷歌 (sorry I've updated app centre and it might be different if u haven't update)
2) Download 联系人同步服务, 日历同步服务, Google Playstore, Gmail and Google plus. The rest can be downloaded from playstore
3) After install, open either playstore or gmail and sign in
At this stage, Google is already setup properly with contacts sync just it cannot add multiple Google accounts. Workaround:
4) Open Google plus. Settings - add account
And voila. The phone is perfect now
There's also an OTA update for the LTE version which updates your phone firmware to 7D-503LV100R001C233B006
Cool new features includes double tap screen on, some control over notification flash light for messages and background battery optimization :good:

Just finished updating....and WOW!!!!
Vast improvement....EMUI 2.3 is polished, quick and very responsive (but probably used Nova)
Everything is faster ...probably due to KitKat 4.4.2.
One MAJOR issue is that Huawei change the DPI...the icons and text will be larger. This change was in response to Huawei's forum users saying text was too small.
Update: Unable to root via current RootGenius 1.8.7en, 1.9.6, KingoRoot 1.2.2, AnzhiRoot 1.5.0
I lost play store after update .... but i just download the apk and install .. it works fine ... thanks
Just installed and the font is too big for me. The performance is better.
Antutu Score : 23637
Can not install some of application like FIFA 14. They said it is not compatible with the device.
I had to install Google+ for second Google account but it also has compatibility issue.
But you can add second Google account on YouTube app.
I've just received the Mediapad X1, 501u firm.
To install the Kitkat 4.4.2, should I root the unit first?
Thanks in advance!
No, you don't have to rooting. Just follow the instruction.

I have some apps that also show up as "incompatible with your version"...it's due to the change in LCD density value from 320 to 400. Hopefully someone finds a work around for this .
7D-501L
Can you update 7D-501L with 7D-501U? Did anyone tried it yet? Please let me know because I would love to upgrade my phone.
whoaw , DL speed is impressive , about ....0bps .... lol
if anyone had DL rom before and can post it on Mega , it will be great ( i need rom for 503L )
for who's tested, can you restore all googles app , by rooting/modify the xml file ?
upgrade by OTA will not work ? ( like from B002 to B006 ) ?

needrom.com has a post for the B007 503L, I haven't registered, so not sure whether its a link to EMUI or a mirror

I tried rooting with RootGenius, but it failed...I was debating weather to use one of the "banned" rooting programs due to security concerns. In the end, I tried it anyways without success. No Root = no modify XML. You can still get Google Play via the Huawei App Center, search for "GMS" and click on the google banner and download google play store, then download apps from official play store . While you are at the Huawei app center, you also need to download both "Google Sync" programs, (1) with calender icon and (1) with contact icon to be able to sync.
To add multiple Google accounts to the X1, you need to download Youtube or Google Maps and add an account through those apps, there is no option to add accounts in settings.
OTA will not update fom B002 or B006 if you are root (from what I read)
Regarding 64GB SD card: B007 will not do NTFS or exFAT...BUT it will automatically format your card to FAT32 (which is a plus) Available storage 64GB card = 59.46GB. I have a 64gb Micro SDHX card, not SDHC...I could not get it to work on B006 even with FAT32.
thank's for your response.
the rom download on needrom is fast ( about 1 minute for the 998mo , lol )
it is not a good news for not to be abble to root the device , i use ESroot explorer many time ( to transfer file directly from my device to my servers ) , titanium backup for ... backup my data and remove ugly apk ( or chinese that i cant use ) and airdroid to control my phone by my mac ( even i forget it at home , lol )
did you try Anzhiroot for root B007 ? ( root genius will not work on my B006 4G mediapad, and anzhiroot yes , i hope that perhaps it will work in B007 )
for the 64GB card, on the B006 , it can be formated in FAT32 only, but it is very slow ( i know that fat64 is more fatest than fat32 )
i use a samsung SDHC class10 , and it is very slowly than my old samsung 32Gb class8 ....
Just upgraded to 4.4 Kitkat, but I can't install TASKER ("your unit is not compatibel with this version")
Anyone has successfully installed Tssker?
7D-501L Upgrade
OP - Thanks for the reply...
I guess I just need some courage and go for it...On the NeedRom website is showing this:
ROM Huawei 7D-501L – ROM Android 4.2.2
Update Official ROM Huawei 7D-501L Unicom version: 7D-501u_EMUI_2.3_V100R002C233B007
It looks harmless enough...I will post if everything went okay or not...*** Wish me luck ***
Since updated my internet connection keeps switching to 2G very often and there is no option to use 3G only. Is there any hidden menu i can use to put 3G only?

OP - Thanks for the reply...
I guess I just need some courage and go for it...On the NeedRom website is showing this:
ROM Huawei 7D-501L – ROM Android 4.2.2
Update Official ROM Huawei 7D-501L Unicom version: 7D-501u_EMUI_2.3_V100R002C233B007
It looks harmless enough...I will post if everything went okay or not...*** Wish me luck ***

Let us know how it goes...maybe all units have the same hardware..but software profile activate different bands.

Since updated my internet connection keeps switching to 2G very often and there is no option to use 3G only. Is there any hidden menu i can use to put 3G only?
Thank you

With 3g preferred...if 3g signal is strong it will use 3g...else it will drip down to 2g. If it was 3g only and 3g signal is weak...you will get no internet at all. Not sure if they changed the modem/baseband files...didnt pay attention to B006.. That may be why ...
7D-501L Failed...
Well the upgrade has failed. Trying to upgrade 7d-501l to 7d-501u. As it was going through the upgrade checks, it was saying successful but around 40%-50% I got this error:
"FAIL" = Detected the upgrade package can not be adapted to your tablet...
Any suggestion??
MODEL: Mediapad X1 (International Version) 7D-501LV100R001C199B003

At this point ... You should probabky wait for an official 501L ROM . I'm assuming it shouldn't be long ...beats having a $400 brick.
B007 is faster ... But the big font is annoying pretty much everyone. I can barely type correctly...the keyboard is literally half the screen !

OP - Thanks.
Yes you're right don't want to have a $400 brick on my desk. Just need to wait a little longer for an release. I hope soon and also hope they make the fonts smaller. Don't want a keyboard taking up half my screen...

I was formatting OS and after reboot I have noticed it:laugh:
New January 1st patch is available :fingers-crossed:
I wonder when they ll release wear2.0 for this watch
I came across this android app from voguemaster which will download a zip and the extract the zip to update the android kodi files, essentially installing a new 'build'.
Now I understand that a lot of the addons etc from the build it currently downloads are probably not supported and I'm not interested in that anyway. I wanted to change it to update my own build (without unsupported addons) for my friends, so when I make an update they can update as well without me having to pop over their house with my USB stick.
Unfortunately, although I worked out what to change in the app via Android Suite to link to my 'build', i wasn't able to sign and pack the apk because the gradle was out of date - and then I had some warnings about some code being out of date as well. I guess that's to be expected from an apk that's had little or no support since 2015.
My question is, would anyone be interested/able to fork this apk so it will work? I had a go myself but I really don't have a clue what I'm doing beyond the very basics!

Change your region via full OTA.
You do everything at your own risk, I am not responsible for any damages. The Chinese version cannot be changed in this way, please use this guide.
This guide allows you to change region within one Android version or upgrade without unlocking the bootloader. Android 13 prepackaged OTA files for India and EU regions will be listed here. If you want to switch to another region, you can ask the author of the post or edit the OTA file yourself according to this guide.According to this guide, user data will not be deleted.
Spoiler: Editing the payload-properties.txt file in full OTA
Download the full OTA from this link Move it to your device's internal memory To edit you will need an advanced device manager that you can download from the Play Store
Through the file manager, we find the OTA file that we are going to edit. Click on the file and open it in the manager, 3 files will open. Click on payload-properties.txt and change the line oplus_update_engine_verify_disable=0 to 1
We save in the upper right and you leave. The edited file will update in about 3 minutes. There may be an update error and there will be two zip archives in the folder, nothing wrong with that! We will keep both files but select the file without tmp to update.
Instructions : 1. Download the full OTA of the desired region and put it in the root directory of the internal memory.
RMX3301_11_C.20_IN
RMX3301_11_C.19_EUEX
RMX3301_11_C.19_RU
2. Installation of the OPLocal_ Update application. Go to your smartphone's settings, then Apps > Management. applications, 3 dots and check Show System ! Look for SOFTWARE UPDATE and clear this app's cache and data! Then install the OPLocal_ Update app for Android 12 or 13 (choose the version that is current on the device)
OPLocalUpdate_For_Android12.apk
OPLocalUpdate_For_Android13.apk
3. Installing an update through a third-party application! Next, open the app we installed and update it through it (gear top right and select the .zip file in the root directory of the internal memory), an installation window should appear! If everything is fine, the process will start and you will be prompted to restart your smartphone after installing the update. Installation takes 20-30 minutes.
After restarting your smartphone, you are in a new region.
It is recommended to flash the firmware file twice to flash both slots!
Many thanks to 4pda forum members KRD_RUS and [email protected] who created the tutorials.
Spoiler: Video instructions
Excellent tutorial. This was the only way possible, I was able to change the Rom from Global (previously Chinese) to INDIA region.
Thanks pal for all your help!
What is the point of changing to India region? Does the india rom have built in call Recorder?
I chose these regions because of the GDPR version and export.
Call recording has RU version.

Only RU has call Recorder?
How does this affect ota security updates?
The RU version has recording for sure.
OTA will run smoothly.
With this procedure I won't need to unlock the bootloader? So does that mean that NFC and banking apps don't work perfectly?
Yes, they will work without problems.
Hello
You only linked India and EU roms, is the RU rom available somewhere ?
Link added
from IN C12 my can't transfer through EUEX C12 this way? Thanks
You can
Does Russia have C 12 or only C 08 because Realme wont update due those stupid sanctions?
The Realme server only offers C.08, but C.12 should arrive by air.
Hi! I'm on GDPR version (GT2 RMX3311) and I wold like to unlock the bootloader by switching region to India, unlock via deep testing apk, and flash back the GDPR firmware, will this work? Will the bootloader remain unlock if I flash gdpr fw back?
Tried it, it doesn't work for GT 2.
@daniml3 tried it
So, I flashed the Indian ROM and all was fine, except that RIL didn't work, so l didn't have a working SIM and neither an IMEI, so I couldn't unlock the bootloader as it needs a working IMEI for that.

Has anyone tried to use the (RMX3311) "modem.img" in the (RMX3312) "payload.bin" and then to flash the RMX3312 FW on the RMX3311 GT2 ?

I have downloaded the firmware file and placed it in the root folder, but the updater still says "Move installation package into root directory".
Help would be appreciated. Thanks.
