Chineses P8 Max flashing - Huawei P8max

hi all
i've bought a P8 Max from china. actually its on build DAV-703LV100R001C233B029.
It is possible to flash an europe version? When yes, could you please post a link?
Thanks in advance and regards from switzerland
SWATTIE

nope, and the international version doesnt have all the features that that chinese one has!

Which features do you mean? I missing the possibility to sync my Google contacts

Double Tap to wake I think, but not sure some people here talk about thinks that they are missing on the 701 Version that I have on my 703 Version.
I have unlocked my Bootloader and flashed GAPPS so I dont have the problem to sync my Google Contacts.
But some people wrote here you can download these APPS from the Huawei App Market too...

Ahhh, i forget, call recording, no problem i copy the huawei dialer from my chinese P8 to my int. P8 Max, it works perfect.
Any other features from the chinese 703 ?

Just asked the same question to Huawei UK, here is their reply
Dear Customer,*
Thank you for contacting Huawei UK Customer Care.*
Regarding your query, unfortunately we will not be able to assist. However, there should be several forums that cover this process. Moreover, I can tell you that there is a chance that the phone will not work within optimal parameters even with a changed ROM because the hardware itself is a bit different than the one European devices have.*
Best of luck and may you have a great weekend!*
Kind regards,
Tony
Huawei Customer Care Team.*

Any official update for mediapad x2 GEM-701L to 5.1.1 or 6.0 ?

Dears
I am running the official 5.0 sw/GEM-701L, is there any new official sw like 5.1.1 or 6.0 , i tried to check with referent regions in Huawei website but no hop,
they released the device and left it without update
many thanks in advance
There is no official Update for 701.You can unlock the Bootloader and flash the China Firmware from 703 or the international 702 Firmware.
Many thanks for your feedback
Hi
Actually it's a bit tricky but you'll find tutorials on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-x2/general/how-to-flash-rom-x2-gem-703l-gem-702l-t3228915
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-x2/general/how-to-flash-rom-gem-701-702-703-t3293795
But anyway, I think that 701L users now need a more simple, clear and updated tutorial for " how to install a recent 703L rom on my 701L", dedicated to this precise model.
If someone with this experience would read that...
Does anybody know the market shear between 701, 702 and 703 models? I am wondering what are the reasons of being no updates for 701. Maybe it's becaus it only represens a few percent of the X2 market?

I agree. It's definitely needed a dedicated tutorial for 701L on how to convert to 703L.
I hope AJ can spare some of his time for this..[emoji16]

no 701L update blues
Got em bad.
This seriously sucks for what is otherwise a fabulous device.
Certainly puts me off Huawei for my next phone.
Save a maximum of personnal data and settings (with for example : huawei backup app, helium backup, titanium backup...).
Then flash directly on your 701L this official international rom designed for 702L:
http://consumer.huawei.com/tw/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=92804&key4=GEM-702LC158B203
It will install, and your device will be on android 6, and designed for international users.
Please note that it is recommanded to unlock your bootloader before flashing anything. In order to unbrick your device if something goes wrong.

Chinese to English

Hi,
Sorry newbe here..
Just want to check if anyone had my below issue when buying phone from china to save few quits
1) Phone comes with all preload chinese apps (which most of the can be ignore once google play has been installed)
2) I've cannot register to Huawei ID from the phone (even after had login details when registered through web)
error message
"Service not supported for your Location. We apologise for the inconvenience."
I am trying to register phone from UK.
troubleshots done (from search engine)
1) Installed tunnelbear and tried registering no luck.
2)created new account from huaweis chinese website still no luck.
Any help much appericated, also can i install UK rom on this phone?
Phone details
Honor 8
model : FRD-AL00
Let me know if you need any further details.
Try switching the launcher from System Launcher to Huawei Home although not 100% sure this will work since we aren't living in China
Much appericated for your prompt response.
Not sure how to do that
Sorry how can i do that?
It si set to Huawei Home
If that's the case I suppose it won't work. I picked up this phone (from China) and got rid of almost all of the apps that were installed by default. I can't see a reason I would want a Huawei ID....
thanks I've manged to register to Huawei ID here i've done
Created Account thorough PC -> went to setting from from the phone ->

The best way would be waiting for HUAWEI to release a stock Englist ROM and flash that...
All the chinese variants comes with preloaded chinese apps, I think you should be able to uninstall them easily from Settings > Apps. I never really tried a chinese ROM, so don't know if they are uninstallable, but most of us gets bloats in our /cust partition, from which we can uninstall them.

Some of the default apps can be uninstalled, but I am hoping that at some point there is an English version of the rom for FRD-AL10 released.

Yes, maybe, if some dev makes it.
I get the same Huawei ID location error on Europe Honor 7. I don't think its anything to do with the rom being Chinese.

Thanks for this. I downloaded it, but I will wait to hear if someone else has flashed it on a FRD-AL10 first! Right now the phone is too new and I don't want to risk bricking it.
EU ROMs works on EU variants only, don't try it on Chinese variant, unless you debrand it.

the other side of the problem with the chinese rom is that has a lot of bugs the biggest problem is about the notifications im not reciving them(Not getting from whatsapp , messenger , instagram etc, i have tried everything and nothing it only works when i open the apps i get the notifications)

Debranding wihout flashing oeminfo and custom.bin of global model can stuck your device at NRD90M-test-keys.
Dead notification is not a bug actually, its rather characteristic of chinese rom.
After set a few settings, you may get push notifications.
1. device manager-permission - allow all permission of the app you want to get notification.
2. settings-app-settigs icon (lower left)-specific access ? (i translated my korean language to english...maybe differ in native english)-ignore battery optimization-add the app you want to get notification
3. device manager-screen lock (or off) optimization-protect the app you want to get notification
4. devace manager-autostart -set the app you want to get notification as autostart after bootup
5. turn off all of emui power saving mods like... power usage notification turn off power intensive apps....
kirin 655 is essentially power efficient chip so this silly settings does no good.
try this.

You can do this to enable dual sim on single sim devices but has two slots. It is also used to remove chinese characters with chinese ROMs.

I've done quite a bit of research into this. It's not a simple process as for example Xiaomi.
It will involve resizing the system partition among other partitions.

File manager detects that it is an update package. For reference it's the 17/6/2020 RMX2076EU_11_A.22
Currently on RMX2075_11_A.20

Just as an interest, what's wrong with the CN version?

As per my first analysis, RM2071 (CN) did not bring the majority of the languages (in my case, I need PT), just CN, EN and other two or three asian languages. It does not have Google Play store although it is possible to install it separatedly.
Finally there are many CN apps that comes together and when using EN, some untranslated texts in CN are still appearing in many screens.

Disappointed with Chinese Rom
I also own a RMX2071 version.
To be honest I'm disappointed as my expectations with this phone were too high.
Here are my remarks:
Breeno is only in Chinese and you cannot download EU voices,
Global search is only retrieving Chinese news,
Impossible to fully replace Breeno with Google Assistant (shortcut will still launch Breeno instead of GA, GA will not produce notification sound when activated...)
Some software and some rare options are not translated in my language (I set the FR language and still Chinese texte)
Security check is done for all app you are downloading from Google store (which leads sometimes to Play Store crash)
Google Chrome is freezing from time to time
I need to switch mobile data off and on to get back internet (specially after leaving the phone locked for a while).
I need to switch mobile data off and on right after a call or I'll not be able to get Internet...
