HI,
I have an Honor 6 Dual Sim (H60-L12) here in China. The ROM is mostly in English (as set after start), but there are many massages in Chinese. Is there a possibility to change it to an international Rom?
Thanks

how does rooting help me?
Rooting itself none. But it allows you to freeze / uninstall not needed Chinese apps.
Which ROM? Where Chinese symbols?
If info on lock screen, switch it off. See this post and response:
I am on B313 ROM and very few Chinese symbols - some in Contact (some countries).

Yes, I also have the B313 ROM, but at present I live in China, so that might be a reason for some messages in Chinese.
I will check the link you sent and see if it improves.
thanks
Same here. I have the H60-L02 and the B313 and a lot of Chinese messages and apps. I know that I can uninstall these apps via Titanium Backup.
It would be nice if someone could backup und upload the international stock apps from the H60-L04.
Hi
I have purchased the Honor 6+ from 3 UK.
Currently my installed rom is as folows:
Model Number PE-TL10
Build Number PE-TL10V100R001C900B141
Android Version 4.4.2
Custom Version CUSTC432D141
Fully Stock / Unrooted
I am looking to upgrade to 4.4.4 stock unrooted.
I have tried the B160 update from this page http://www.needrom.com/download/honor-6-4g-pe-tl10/ but the update always fails.
Any Idea what I'm doing wrong or the file I should be using? Also this pages says that Gapps are not incleded, does that mean I have to root in order to flash Gapps through a custom recovery?
Thanks

All honor 6 and 6+ stock roms are based on android 4.4.2.
You dont need to root to install gapps, just install the apks

Sorry of the confusion, that page lists the rom as "official Update" and "Android Version 4.4.4" and says to flash through the huawei update app on the phone.
Does that mean the only 4.4.4 woudl be a custom rom that rrequires a custom recovery?

Yes but I don't think that there is any custom rom for the Honor 6 plus. For the honor 6 there is an ufficial cm11 but it miss some basic features like dual sim support.
International ROM

Not to hijack the thread, but I would be interested in getting an International ROM like you seem to have.. I have the Chinese version, which do not allow me to join Huawei cloud, and pops up messages in Chinese now and then... If the ROM is not tied up to 3UK in anyway, that is.
I have the latest build PE-TL10V100R001CHNC00B173

Seems my answer didnt get posted:
If you e.g. Open HiVoice, charachters are English & Chinese, so I guess this app are of no use, voice command I guess.. Most annoying is pop-ups warning me of backups. Since I'm not allowed to use Huawei Cloud+, it's of no use( "service unavailable in your country"). Phone is set to Norwegian language, and most apps is in Norwegian, some in English. I use other clouds for backup, but the 6+ defaults to HCloud+.
Some themes use Chinese also..
Small things that are annoying...especially when the phone is released in Europe now...
Did you manage to find any ROMS which worked on the 3uk version. As i could not find the orginal rom ( PE-TL10V100R001C900B141) anywhere to download I have not risked flashing using a ROM not based for this phone.
Hey Jusumgeezer
Did you solve the problem with a local update Honor 6+
I have a feeling the rom we have on our 3uk handests are specific for 3. ......maybe i am wrong. Would be good to se if someone has better knowledge that I do.
I bought my 6 plus from Amazon UK not 3 and I have the same versions as you, so not specific to 3. Hope this helps!
Interesting. Have you managed to load a diferent rom on to it yet success? and if yes which one?
Still no joy with updating yet. I have a feeling that the page I quoted is actually showing roms for the 6 not the 6+ that's why they won't work
NO. The page you quoted is correct. I have a feeling that our "European" models need specific ROMs for them. Which is annoying. ANy one had any luck yet?

ore use multi-tool and use the unbrick option.
but the Sim card is not detected and updates also do not work and my phone keep restarting.
I suspect that the PE-TL10 partitioning is different divided than in the Chinese PE-TL10.

Hello,
Just got this watch here in China, everything is in Chinese (ofcourse) but i find it really hard to use this way, i asked Huawei and they claim that this version (DLXXE) doesnt have an international rom - is this true ?
Again - its not the Pro version, its the 2018 version
owde.180707.001.H1
If someone please direct me to an international rom it would be really appreciated - at the same time, if someone know what will i be missing if i switch to this version ? would i be able to use Wechat pay/Alipay still ?
Thank you

I have the normal sport watch and yours LTE version. Before buying the watch in China i had confirmed with many Huawei stores that watch can install English OS but alas after buying the watch it couldnt be done via the chinese OS. You have to unlock the bootloader then install the English rom then close the bootloader again. Once on English rom you can update to the latest OS. Instructions are there in the forum. However i got lazy after years of rooting and hacking and being on IOS mostly and took the help of Sunny mention below. He will charge a fee and remotely installed the English OS.
PS. Dm me for alipay apk which i downloaded from some chinese website its an earlier version but works. It works beautifully from phone for paying with English. Care to tell how you got the wechat pay on the phone? While i had the Chinese rom for a day i cant remember i had wechat pay installed then.
Thank you for your answer - but to confirm, you have the version of the watch with the SIM slot ? this version im talking about is the Esim version and i suspect this is the reason why no int ROM was made for it, as it would render the Esim useless.
Do you think that if i try to put the rom as you suggest it would work on this watch as well?

I am not sure if there is an Esim English version. So yes if there is no English E-sim version then could be an issue.
My bad i didnt realise that wasnt the case. My watch is normal BT watch.
I am not sure if it would be advisable to install a rom which is not for your watch and even if it does work then probably you wont have the E-sim function. Just my guess. Sorry if my reply didnt help you further. Wearos scene in China and worldwide is a mess. I cant install the huawei market app on my phone or cant find 1 apk for it.

Hi, can you share rom for me??
I have read that the indonesia version of the ROM for Poco F2 Pro is more stable than the EEA one.
I also read that the indonesia version has the call recorder.
Are there any other differences? Network management type?
Thanks.

Use the INDO V12.0.4.0 version which is super stable
I am now on INDO V12.2.2.0 and it has many bugs, GPS does not work, recent app, battery discharges fast ...
I will return to INDO V12.0.4.0 and disable the update so as not to update.

Will I lose anything by going from EEA to Indonesian ROM? Like bands or languages or anything?
I'm in a process of unlocking the bootloader and downgrading from Android 11 to android 10 and I'm wondering which ROM is the best. I think a call recorder is a nice feature to have. I had it in my Zenfone 6.

I'm using a very strict banking app and I'm afraid they wouldn't like each other. Many users of my bank's app complained about that, but their developers always know better. Sometimes it doesn't even work with stock ROMs on some devices stating that they are rooted.

The main reasons why I'm going back to Android Q are:
the full screen not working in A11 (status bar always visible),
phone not streaming audio to the car head (stopped working after upgrade to A11)
and annoying animation when minimizing an app and going to the home screen (can't be switched off)
Are these bugs fixed in the eu ROM?

Couldn't find the answer there, thanks anyway.
I guess I'll stick to the stock Android 10 ROM, so the question still stands: what is the difference between Indonesia and EEA ROMs except for the dialer and message apps?

good afternoon, i did try to unlock the bootloader of two devices I bought and unfortunately i was unable to. i watched a few videos regarding the unlocking, downloaded the unlocking app and the waiting time doubled after my first try.i must have done something wrong but i dont know what. the only thing I am wondering is if i have to leave the sim in the device while im waiting for the 7 day period for example? have any of you got any suggestions and would you guys mind helping me and guide me step by step on what to do. i dont understand much and this is my first try. the poco f2 pro is with two SIM cards and the global version 12.2.5.0(rjkeuxm) and the redmi k30 is again with two SIMs with 12.1.6.0(rgicnxm)

Hi all,
So I am interested in buying a Realme GT Neo 2, however I will likely buy the Chinese version as it is easier and chaeper for me to find and purchase (Aliexpress).
I see most stores say they will open the box and flash the Global ROM for you before shipping. Not sure how true this is, but anyways...
I wanted to find out if with the Chinese ROM, does it have the same issues as Xiaomi / Redmi with the Chinese ROM where when the device is locked you do not get messages.
For example, with the Redmi Note 11 Pro (Chinese ROM). If I am using Whatsapp or Telegram, it works fine but once I lock the phone after a minute or so when the phone is in sleep mode I do not get messages or any whatsapp / telegram calls.
I have to unlock the phone before those messages are downloaded and come through to my phone - is this the case with the Chinese ROM on the GT Neo 2?
If so, will this be fixed by flashing the Global or Indian ROM? I know with Xiaomi, if you flash the Global ROM then this is no longer a problem. It seems that the Chinese ROM for Xiaomi is very aggressive with how it manages apps when the phone is sleepings or when the apps are running in the background.
This is my main concern and the only thing stopping me from buying this phone now.
@KD6-3.7 Maybe you can give me some advice, you seem to have a lot of knowledge with Realme and the GT Neo 2.

I do not know about that kind of screen off issue. But my Indian Variant one has no issues whatsoever. [ edge lighting is also great! ]
TBH, the neo 2 with Chinese Rom is getting frequent updates + it has access to the RUI 3.0 Beta application.
Whereas the Indian market users of neo2 are stuck on an update which is 2 months+ old...
Also, with chinese rom, you can unlock the bootloader! No such thing as of now in global/Indian ones...
So it is on you entirely, if you want updates faster or not. Also, from what i have seen, MIUI CN usually is always better than the buggy global one. Not sure how realme works.

Alright thanks.
MIUI CN is great, just the way it handles apps in the background / when phone is locked is a problem for me. No Global ROM for the Redmi Note 11 Pro, only expected sometime in Q1 so I had to sell mine unfortunately. My girlfriend has the Redmi Note 10 Pro, global ROM and works as expected.
Tempted to pull the trigger on this Realme, thinking I might ask the supplier to flash to Global ROM just incase. I imagine they'd need to unlock the bootloader and I could always flash back to the Chinese ROM to play around with if need be.
I just cannot afford to have a phone which does not allow for IM apps and their messages / calls to come through when the phone is locked.
This will be my first Realme device, so not familiar with how they work and do things.
If I am able to flash between the various ROMs, I might even flash to the Indian ROM if that has newer updates compared to the Global ROM.
I assume Indian ROM & Global ROM are quite similar and both have Google Apps and English as a language?

Indian is, i think global only, heh.
Also, i dont think that you will be able to unlock the bl once global rom is flashed, although i can be wrong.
If you do use google applications, then yes, you indeed need the global rom.

Hmm, I was thinking and hoping that the supplier will unlock the bootloader, flash the Global ROM and then the bootloader will remain unlocked for me to flash the different ROMs as I wish?
It seems there is really not a lot of info available and most people who are on forums and using these phones seem to be using the Global or Indian version and not the Chinese version - which so far seems to be able to do more and has newer updates.
I can order the Chinese version and ask them to not update to the Global ROM, but then I run the risk of maybe still not being able to unlock the bootloader and having a phone I cannot use properly.
If I can get confirmation that Realme does not have the same issue as Xiaomi do on their Chinese ROMs then I am more than happy to stay on the Chinese ROM.

CN variant will always be ahead in terms of updates.
As for your supplier, he will lock the bl. He has to, cuz if he doesnt, then your play store wont be certified. He will flash and lock most probably.
you can i think ask the seller himself about such stuff, he knows much more , heh.
Im currently using GT Neo 2 China varian rom.
Maybe this is my first time using Realme UI, so some of my problem may not really a problem
Here are some of my experiance for using China variant rom
1. A lot of China bloatware, most of it can be deleted
3. Unable to backup system setting, sms, call log at google account. It will showing error. You may need to backup your data to the realme chinese cloud. Contact and Calender are able to sync with google account.

Actually is depend. If you very rely of Google ecosystem, the China variant rom might not your best choice.
So I have not pulled the trigger yet and was wondering what the latest software is on the Global ROM vs the Indian ROM?
I am wondering whether I should speak to the seller and see if they cannot put the Indian ROM on for me instead of the Global ROM as I may get updates sooner than on the Global ROM?
I assume the Indian ROM works fine with apps running in the background and when your phone is locked you can still get Whatsapp & Telegram messages and do not need to unlock your phone in order to receive those messages like with the Chinese ROM?

我得到的唯一问题是 CN 应用程序，但您可以卸载/删除然后使用 ADB 或手动卸载，呵呵
这就是为什么CN版本是所有版本中最好的！

Hi all,
So I am interested in buying a Realme GT Neo 2, however I will likely buy the Chinese version as it is easier and chaeper for me to find and purchase (Aliexpress).
I see most stores say they will open the box and flash the Global ROM for you before shipping. Not sure how true this is, but anyways...
I wanted to find out if with the Chinese ROM, does it have the same issues as Xiaomi / Redmi with the Chinese ROM where when the device is locked you do not get messages.
For example, with the Redmi Note 11 Pro (Chinese ROM). If I am using Whatsapp or Telegram, it works fine but once I lock the phone after a minute or so when the phone is in sleep mode I do not get messages or any whatsapp / telegram calls.
I have to unlock the phone before those messages are downloaded and come through to my phone - is this the case with the Chinese ROM on the GT Neo 2?
If so, will this be fixed by flashing the Global or Indian ROM? I know with Xiaomi, if you flash the Global ROM then this is no longer a problem. It seems that the Chinese ROM for Xiaomi is very aggressive with how it manages apps when the phone is sleepings or when the apps are running in the background.
This is my main concern and the only thing stopping me from buying this phone now.
@KD6-3.7 Maybe you can give me some advice, you seem to have a lot of knowledge with Realme and the GT Neo 2.

I am CN that this is not the case, there are several options in Settings-Notifications, one of which is to receive messages and reminders and display them on the lock screen, if not, then it is probably because the process of app has been forcibly stopped by the power protection system, to solve this problem, just select not to optimize in the battery optimization interface. The relevant solution may also be in the long press of the icon in question-Application Details-Power Consumption Management)

Well its the whole packed up rom. Depends on how it was compiled.
Interesting
I have Chinese version too.
I think the only deal breakers that i have with the Chinese version are missing notifications and bloatware. I am not sure how it works but it never delivers notifications on time, either they are delayed for 5-10 minutes or hours
I flash global version and really happy with it. Gpay doesn't work but my bank app does
