Hi can any one help just got this phone and did not know it was Chinese version. Is there any way I can change it in to European version or near as. Every thing is in Chinese and I don't seem to be able to install google or firefox unless its in Chinese. I have changed language to English and have key pad in English. But it wont let me download google firefox to install. Any help would be well and truly appreciated .
Look around in this forum and you can find ways to rebrand this phone to European or whatever.

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
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!

Can you run the script that is located here and post your results
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.
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.

Ok. Let me be specific. The Phone is in Chinese Language (default system language). Can any one point me out which icons I should click (in Chinese) or the location of the menu, specific menu item #, so that I can change the language without having to learn Chinese or find someone who knows Chinese. I happened to enter somewhere where I can change the keyboard somehow, but I have no idea where the "Language and Settings" is (in Chinese).
Best Regards,
In setting go for the last one enter it than the third it's language enter and now the first one is to change language
On the Mate 10 - settings>bottom icon>3rd icon>1st icon>bottom icon>then select language
Hey guys. Im interested to know what restrictions you have on your Chinese Mate 10 pro’s. Its my understanding that google play no longer works. Could you let me know what if any issues you have faced with the Chinese firmware.
Regards

Since Huawei stopped providing bootloader codes , it could be done only by some paid services, search in google
