the bootloader,theme pack evrything is in chinese and the simple apps such as paypal when trying to download from google play store says not compatible with this device?my google contacts do not sync up what a upset,thought i would contact you to see if you have any ideas as what to do. or even send you my phone to let you give it the real upgrade and fix it to be a tricked out phone.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA assist.
I assume you are running the ZTE Nubia Z9 Max? If you are unhappy with the current firmware on your device, there are custom roms (or OSes) for your phone in the Miscellaneous Android Development forum.
I also highly recommend posting in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum as there is no dedicated forum for your device. Please note that in order to post, you will need to create a XDA account.
Good Luck! - gsstudios

Hey, new user here.
Please guys if there is anyone who has found a safe and phone specific rooting method for this phone please help. I recently got it as a gift from China. Changing the language does not get rid of the annoying Chinese text on certain apps i cant even delete. Furthermore, no Google Apps come with the phone (i guess as a result of China hating Google).
Also, is it possible to use other similar Lenovo rooting methods or do i risk bricking my brand new phone?
Hi,
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device. You can try one of the generic root methods at the top of the list here,
XDA Root Directory
If nothing works, you will need to ask for help here,

Good luck!

There isn't much ROM development for your device. However, I would still recommend posting in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum as there is no dedicated forum for your device. Please note that in order to post, you will need to create a XDA account.

Hello, I have a new Asus_X550 (the Pegasus 2 Plus), running Android 5.1.1.
Since I bought it in China, there are pieces of it in Chinese, which I don't want. Therefore, I'd like help with *one* of the following, in order of preference (the best being #1)
1. Can I flash Android 6.* onto it? How?
2. Can I flash some other custom ROM? How? I checked, and it doesn't seem to be supported, at least not by CM. I've seen the one article all over the place claiming to do it, but I'm unsure of the legitimacy of the ROM given, esp since the download requires surveys and such.
3. How can I replace the Chinese app drawer and UI?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello guys, I recently bought an Asus Pegasus 2 Plus (X550) and I wasn't aware that it had only been launched in China.
It has the official rom for android lollipop and since it was released in china it has a lot of chinese apps (launcher included).
My question is: Is there any custom rom that I can use to flash this phone and have the google services, playstore, maps as i want or am I stuck with this chinese launcher?
I've googled a little bit and I oonly found some suspicious threads with the same comments all over and a survey download that seems not safe.
If I root the phone and decide not to flash it, can I uninstall this launcher and install another one instead? I've been doing some research and I think that if I do this, I still won't be able to install the google apps. The launcher is asus shengshier.
Thanks in advance.

Hi There,
I've just got one of these Chinese phones and the stock ROM is terrible, has anyone else had one and put a better version of Android on it? For some reason it is forcing me to install certain apps from some random website rather than the Google Play store, and also if I do manage to install an app it puts the icon in a little box rather than displaying the correct icon. It would be nice to get Cyanogen Mod on it but I can't find it in their supported devices list, I'm hoping that as with most of these Chinese devices it's just a generic device that has been re branded by Xgody and therefore compatible with Cyanogen.
Cheers
