Hi everybody,
seems like that since the beginning of September various e-shops have had availability of a Global Black Shark.
Judging from various unboxing/review videos the main difference seems to be that the Global Black Shark uses a stock-ish Android Oreo with preinstalled Play Services, but this ROM doesn't seem to exists on any site.
Does anybody know something more about that?
I think it would be cool to have an official global ROM.
I purchased mine 4 days ago here, I'm somewhere from Asia.
Yes it comes with Stock Android ROM. Although this looks the way it should be presented to the world, I think I prefer the China ROM's JoyUI due to the features I liked from Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x.
It is similar to MIUI and somehow I regret getting the global verson.

I have the global one as well and its kind of like lineage OS + the shark space , or the way android looks on a google pixel phone + shark space with all the options to configure the gamepad , extreme mode , etc.
Other than that there is no sign of any other joyui features like screen recording and the other stuff with the led customization.
It only says JoyUi when you go to check for updates even though its not
Doesnt come with any bloat-ware either at all.
Out of the box it had about 15~ apps installed which were most google apps , and it has the play store by default.
To be honest i prefer the the more simple global rom because i read on the official chinese forums on the joyui version that there are some stability issues with the software where it sometimes reboots randomly on its own which kinda sucks if its true.
Dont have any screenshots as there is no need since it looks like stock androind.
If you wanna see the ui check out the unbox therapy video where you can kind of see what it looks like.

i see, well i got the Chinese version since june, i can't deny an occasional force reboot happens but its very rare like once in 2 weeks, and its much better with the recent updates, it was a bigger problem before android 8.1 update arrived, now its negligble.
i also had some issues with google services and facebook force closing in the first FW version but that was also fixed now, im very happy with the phone RN, joyui is also very clean and has no bloatware at all, except xiaomi standard apps like the market and gallery app file manager etc which i like since i had xiaomi mi6 before.
overall its great though, battery life is amazing partly due to the big battery of the phone but i think joyui + xiaomi background managment is doing really good work, when im not playing it can easely last 2.5 days of causal use with around 8 hours of SOT. with hibarnate disabled so i get notifications on whatsapp etc.
there is only one thing that really bothers me i wonder if global version is the same, when im taking a video with the camera, the auto focus always goes nuts and keeps trying to refocus and never does, didn't have this issue with any other xiaomi phone before and its the same camera app. i end up using manuel focus for taking videos which is anoying at times when u try to move the camera around focus gets lost.
I have a chinese Black Shark and it's really great except for the fact that the play store is not built in.
You can add it via various tools but it not being a System app brings some compatibility issues such as Android Auto not connecting properly to the phone (logcat says it misses som authorizations).
It also have some problems with the download manager (Play Store sometimes needs a clear data to start download apps again) and with notifications

I have the Chinese version , would much rather have the global one
Black shark 2 variation
I just notice the the Model ada diffrent
For the china is SKR-A0
While the global is SKR-H0
Is there alot of diffrent?
I think that until the last update, the Global one was too a SKR-A0.
With the last update the name of the model was changed to fit with the "Helo" name of the new model, thus the "H" instead of the "A".
Can i change the chineese rom to the global one?, and if so, how?
Pls help

At the moment, this seems impossible.
There are no chinese or global roms online and there is no known method of unlocking the bootloader on the chinese version.
I got the global skr-ho 6gb ram 64gb rom..... the best phone I've used coming from a snapdragon fan works vary well with AT&T and cricket u.s
China version just got the firmware update from blackshark helo, 60 fps ui, more backlight led options, and cool gaming mode stats tool showing real time fps cpu temp etc.

Just got a update to support 2.0 controllers but the tool alot away in the global ROM the changed ao to ho in update I would love to go BK to the original ROM more options and customization
does anyone here have an idea on when the "pie" version will be available in global rom?
my apps not running on background after clear ram and not showing notification before we open the apps..its just my problem or same for all black shark global user?
(sorry for asking here coz cant open new thread)
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 for confirming buddy

Also do you have global version yourself?

Is the Xiaomi Mi 10, and Mi 10 Pro, capable of call recording?
I'd like to know if call recording: is available out of the box as standard or if call recording is available via rooting the device (if rooting is even possible?)
I'm in the UK and hoping to purchase the Mi 10 Pro (although no call recording would be a deal breaker) . I'm pretty certain any UK, or EU variant, will have call recording disabled, so I'm more interested in the global and Asian versions (although any phone must have all bandwidth ranges, so probably global is best?)
Thanks in advance
Oliver
Ps please don't make this into a debate about the legalities of call recording. There's already loads of threads about that and it isn't helpful to me. I just want to know if and how.
Xiaomi is now pre-installing the Google Phone app on phones sold in Europe: https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-pre-install-google-phone-messages-global-european-phones/
The Google Phone app currently lacks call recording capabilities, but this functionality is in the process of being added: https://www.xda-developers.com/google-phone-app-call-recording-hands-on/
As far as I know all Chinese version Roms ( the only ones available atm) have call recording by default. (This is not xiaomi exclusive).
I am making a purchase and I asked about this I was reassured that it is available.

As far as I know the global version is not out yet. I don't want global version, I don't really use google. I just need GMAIL otherwise it simply doesn't matter.
Thanks for the upvote.

I was, perhaps incorrectly, under the impression that the Chinese version doesn't have all the bandwidths. So it could have issue connecting to 5g in the EU?
Anyway once your phone arrives I'd be interested to know if you're able to record calls? Please keep us updated

I have a one plus 7 pro and the only reason I have it rooted is for call recording. But I asked couple of times to make sure. It's very normal for phones meant for China to have call recording.

Recording phone calls is possible on the chinese version of the Mi 10 out of the box.
I already unlocked the bootloader and flashed the Xiaomi.EU ROM.
Now I have my native language (german) and it's still possible to record phone calls without a problem

Thanks a lot for the feedback, it's good to know the can recording works on the EU rom.
I suspect all the Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro varieties should also be able to record calls.
I'm waiting for the Mi 10 Pro global version, with rumoured release date of 27th March.
Looks like an amazing phone, and a big improvement in my aging (but trusty) LG G6.
Thanks again,
Oliver

You're welcome!
But you know, with the global version you won't be able to record calls.
You will also have to unlock the bootloader and flash some Custom ROM.

I understand I won't to able to record out of the box, but I. Believe my own call recorder app by Skvalex will work (hopefully without rooting)?
Apparently the Chinese version is missing a band that is used for 4g in the UK, and I've heard it can have issue with contactless payments and Netflix (but I don't know much about this)
Storage location of recorded calls
My Mi10 is Indian version.I have enabled Beta version of Google Dialer.Now the Call Recording works.But I cannot find out where these recorded files are stored.So anybody please advise me where I have to look for these recorded files.

I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying with the beta version of Google dialer call recording is enabled? That's great news if so.
You should hopefully be able to find the recordings in a file manager by searching for the latest files immediately after recording a call?

Call recording is enabled in Beta version.The recording button in dialer screen is active in the dialer screen.When a call is active you can opt for recording by pressing this button.But I can't see recorded file with the use of a File Explorer.That's why I am asking this question.
Hello everyone,
I have the global realme gt 5G rmx2202 and I've been searching ways to enable the deactivated call recording feature on my phone, I know it is disabled in EU due to regulations.
I would prefer not to root the phone or change the stock rom. is there any other way to enable this feature?
Thirdparty apps are useless i have tried both free and purchased ones.
The system call recording is so superior I just cant live without it I used to have it on my korean thinq g7.
I would like to thank XDA forum developers for their hard work and dedication we all appreciate you.
thanks again.

I too would like this feature, in UK it's not against regulations if recordings are not made public. I can also say it's for training purposes.
For some, rooting is not an option as some Financial apps will fail security.

Have you tried "Cube ACR"? I don't know if your particular regional ROM has an internal lock that disables it or whatever, but this at least works for WhatsApp calls.
Edit: I bought Chinese version, flashed global on it.
