[Q] Rooting Chinese Z3 - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I live in China and I am looking to root my girlfriends Z3. She recently got a Sony smartwatch and needs the app to go with it, unfortunately it needs the Play store to run and that is blocked on Chinese phones.
I have found a lot of rooting guides and it looks pretty simple, the only problem is that they all state they are for versions D6xx whereas her version is L55u (which is the China Unicom version).
Is there a way round this? Will the methods for the D6xx versions work on this version?
Thanks for your time, I'm afraid I'm not a very techy person so please reply as if you are talking to an idiot

[Q] Phone with out Android..?

I am newbie here, and planning for new android phone.
One of my friend got X10 without Android from India for few bucks less, shopkeeper said he can come again anytime to load the OS (which will be chargeable-same amount he deducted while buying). He was using his phone very well without android, unfortunately lost his phone. I really don't know what OS it was there on phone (stock or other).
My question is
1. Is it possible to get a phone without android, and if yes then what will be the OS on that?
2. Is it possible to flash/load Android (suitable to that specific device) on such device by our self?
Thanks in advance.
I think your friend got one of the infamous counterfeit phones.
Perhaps it had the Chinese ripoff version of Android on it.

[Q] Help with an Onda Vi10 Tablet

A friend just bought a tablet here in China preloaded with Android 2.1. Its setup to be used in China, which has given me problems in the past on my Android phone. Is there anyway to go about updating it to the new version of Android and maybe even getting rid of the Chinese app store and adding flash support (right now it says the device doesn't support it, even though it looks like it meets requirements)? You guys have been helpful in the past so thanks in advance for any advice.

[Q]

Hello there,
I took my business trip in China to buy a phone on the spot, my brief was simple: A Dual Sim Android Smartphone in French.
The seller sold me a Huawei G750-T01, I was very happy to me to realize that the second SIM slot was not usable in europe ...
So I bought a G750T20 unfortunately I realized after purchasing it was only in Chinese / English. (I thought that Android 4 was automatically multilingual)
Anyway as I wanted to install Google rooter, do somebody know if there is a French ROM, otherwise can you install a ROM of a T00 or download and install it on my T01?
Thank you for your answers.
By the way, I find these lovely phone to use, stable and fast. I have no desire to use my S4 that I find less.

Lenovo S898t+ Android Version 4.2.2

Hello great people, I am honored to be here.
This is my first real post and I am hoping that it gets a good response.
I recently bought a Lenovo S898t+ (aka Golden Warrior) with android version 4.2.2. I must confess there are quite a number great pointers to these cheap phone which is not limited the awesome 13MP from camera.
I understand that these version of phones were produced mainly for the Chinese, that means there are quite a number of limitation to the operations of the phone.
The major down side for me is that:
It doesn't have the Google Play service pre installed. This means that I can't use Play Store
I will really love some insight on how to root and install a custom ROM on this device.
Thanks guys
Rock on.:good:
