From Global firmware to Chinese Firmware (Meizu Pro 7)

Hello everyone,
I'm in the inverse situation of many people on the internet (Can't find any solutions on Internet) so I came to you.
I'm looking to go on the beta flyme os for meizu Pro 7, I've tried the 3 differents ways :
- normal solution (phone awake, click on update zip) = power off and reboot but nothing changed
- the recovery solution = firmware corrupt (I've try older version of beta AND redownload the the file).
- Finally I've also tried to flash the beta rom and chinese stable rom with flashfire, it works but I can't lock the phone by password and fingerprint sensor (locking and back button).
Please note that my model n° has been changed to Model : Pro 7-S probably by the sellor who installed the global firmware on the chinese phone before shipping it. Plus flashing the chinese stable version 6.1.3.5 works perfectly => fingerprint and lockout works find.
I'm open to any solutions
Thanks
Hello what version is your meizu pro 7? Is it the x30 processor?
best regards
peter
Hello,

Sorry my friend but there is no solution for that at this time

Amazfit Stratos Model A1619 Cannot find the Himalaya and Mi-Home app on the watch

Model A1619 arrived yesterday, prior to the update of its rom, I could see all the app in the watch,
Then I updated its ROM to the latest version 2.3.2.7
After the update, even I enable all the apps, it doesn't have Himalaya Radio, AliexpressPay and Mi-Home app in the watch anymore,
I suspect this has something to do with the update that was given to this Model, and A1619 is the international model? the latest rom 2.3.27 removed these three feature for some regional reason.
Checked with their tech support team this morning, the chinese version A1609, has the latest rom version of 2.0.15.0
I am waiting for the unlock code, thanks for the awesome website of boot loader unlocker, once the code arrives, I am thinking to either go for the Pacefied rom or install the Chinese version with all the functions enabled.
Am I heading the right direction to resolve this issue?
Thanks guys
Yes, if you need/want these apps you have to go with the CN or a CN-based custom ROM. You probably will have to use a CN Amazfit app too (or AmazMod). Be careful when you flash the ROM, make sure you know what you doing. If you've never did this kind of stuff, maybe it's better to avoid it, or you may end with a nice dull bracelet.

Unreleased ROM for my region

So I have ordered my Pocophone F1 a few days ago and found that you can install google camera on it, but the most updated one needs a certain ROM version or higher to be able to use it, so I went searching on xiaomi forums and found that, that specific rom version Global Stable ROM V10.1.3.0.PEJMIFI i'snt released in my country Kindly Note- This update V10.1.3.0.PEJMIFI not released to SOUTH KOREA & PORTUGUESE so this is where my questions surge...
Is there any way that this update shows up OTA, like per example, if I change my region, will it make the update show on the ota update app?
If not, can I flash it and will I still get OTA updates ?
Why is the ROM not released in my region ?
And can me getting this ROM on my phone affect anything ? Like data connection, language or apps ?
Thank you!

Oppo Find X with CPH1871TW_11_A.12 Global Version or not?

Hi Guys,
I owned my Oppo Find X some months ago. Through a webshop in switzerland.
It was titled as Oppo Find X 128GB Global. I payed like 200$ more for that global version.
As I unpacked it, I saw that there was a transparent case inside, just like in the Chinese Versions. According to my information, i thought the global version has no case supplied.
And also the american standard of the charger was inside and a little adapter for europe.
I started the phone and saw the casual Google setup, same like every other Android. Everything was working, Google Assistant, Google Play so I didn't thought about global or not. There were just 2 chinese Apps installed (some Social Network), I deleted them.
Some days later I noticed, that I'm not receiving Notifications from all apps. So I wanted to add some apps more for background activity (as I had read the global version should support 9 apps at once) but after 5 it told me with a message that there could only be set 5 apps.
I started reading more threads about it and saw that there is an CPH1871EX version (europe?) which should be the global version and mine looks like to be the taiwan version. I was also stuck on ColorOS v5.1 and there was no update shown on v5.2 until yesterday where I used a VPN to connect to taiwan, then I received the v5.2.
So my question, have I been fooled? Did I got an chinese Version with installed google apps?
Do I have now to connect to taiwan, everytime I want to check for an OS update?
Is there a way to switch to EX, does it even matter?
What does the A.12 on the end mean, and why didn't I got directly the A29(which is the newest I think)
Oh and a total different question, do we know if every Find X will get ColorOS 6, or just chinese?
Thanks in advance for your support

Hi. I have CPH1875, when we will have Pie?
I do think you got the global version but it was specific to Taiwan for some reason. I have the Australian version and it came with a case so I don't think that's an issue. I also have the 5 startup app limit. CPH1875EX.

Unknown "LAO" firmware, please help noob flash

Hi,
I bought a G850EMW from China to work in the UK. It has Android 10 and works perfectly. However I would like to update to Android 12. I have seen guides for this involving downloading a Rom from LGRom.com.
My current phone is running "V20a-LAO-COM". LAO seems to be hard to find information about, and there are no LAO roms on the site. I saw on one forum a reference to "Latin Amercian Region".
My question is can I go ahead and flash my phone with a Rom from say Germany (DEU) or will this cause a problem (is this a "cross-flash") as I'm supposed to find a compatible "LAO" region firmware? I don't want to brick my phone, but I would like the latest security updates, battery improvements, etc.
Thank you.
