AL10 - how to change browser language? - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have had this phone for a week and the English support is fairly good so far, except for one thing - the browser defaults to Chinese. Is it possible to change the browser language, or would I have more luck trying to install a different browser?

Browser - Opera

Hi,
You can try Opera (not opera mini). It is really good, fast, blocks ads and data savings. It has phone, tablet, classic mode. I use classic mode as the exit button is closer to my right hand thumb.
Since it is difficult to make head and tail of that chinese language in the built-in browser, it is better to choose another. I hope Opera satisfies your needs. If it doesn't then there are other good browsers you can try CM5, UC browser or firefox for android.
Cheers!
Sam

Google Chrome Mobile and Flash

Ok, I'm totally confused by all of this.
I do know that Google Chrome is disabling all plugins and things like flash, but I need to access a website that uses flash (My own speedtest running on my network) to test wifi speeds etc.
When I visit the page on my S6 it says "update your client", and the link goes to Adobe's Flash Player website which tells me it's not supported.
I've tried the Flashify app, but that does not work either.
The desktop Google Chrome works fine.
Any suggestions?
Cheers

Update on MT7-TL10C00B561

Hi Guys, really need ur help here. This morning I just get notification that there's an update for the software to MT7-TL10C00B561, I download it and then installed, but just realize that this is the chinese version and my browser turn to chinese (I think it's baidu).
Is there any way for the browser to turn like before and change the search option in browser to google.com?
Thanks.

Hi Robbow..Which Gapps do you mean?
I don't get any preinstalled Gapps from this…can you recommend any good browser? or is Opera is the best out there??
So the ROM is fully Chinese then. They aren't allowed to have google over there. I find that incredible. This is 2016 FFS. Talk about government censorship.
IMO, ditch that ROM and get one meant for your area. Which area? Someone may be able to advise which ROM would be suitable.
Yes the app that came along is also Chinese.. I think it's because this phone is specifically for Chinese customer..
But I find it hard to believe that in this time, we still have this kind of limitations.. ?
If I get the new Rom, do I have to downgrade it first or just installed it?
I tried to download Rom from the official site of Huawei, but it can't be installed as it failed.

I use b561 in English and set google as default
I'm a Chinese user who has also updated my MT7 to b561.
I can use Google Play service and Default Browser with google (in fact I use Chrome more)
The default browser in b561 is a specially modified version of UCWeb, a popular browser in China which is famous for fast rendering.
The language for that browser follows the system setting, so if you want to change the language:
1. -Go setting, an app named "设置". You may find it by its gear-like icon.
2. -Advanced Setting, which is "高级设置".
3. -Language and Input, which is something like "语言".
4. -Choose English.
The browser and system should be in ENG now.
Then change the default search engine.
1. Go to browser.
2. Press menu button (three bars in the bottom)
3. Setting (gear-like icon on the bottom-left
4. Browser setting
5. Default search engine > "谷歌" (Chinese name for google)
Plus, if you want to install Google play,
you can simply install it from HiApp (the Chinese version of app store), simply search "google play"
* You may need to sign up a HUAWEi account to use HiApp

Using this thread.
After the same update, push notifications from Gmail, eBay and others now arrive only occasionally, while before they arrived online.
What to do?
Ummm, I think you need to pay for it.

You can have a vip service for trial. But you need to pay for it then.
My suggestion is to use other music apps, since the built-in one is optimised for Chinese customers. I think the non-Chinese songs are not so abundant.

Android web view issue

Hi, wonder if someone can help me with my old TF101.
I want to have it on the wall in my house just for a home assistant display. The app I want to use is fully kiosk browser or wall panel. I've tryed a number of roms and currently got katkiss 6.0.1 installed without play store.
I can brows the internet with the default app, browser, but some web sites don't display and is states "please update browser". I can install the fully kiosk browser but it states I need to update Android web view I've downloaded and installed lots of different virsions (one at a time) with no luck.
I've installed Xposed and run webviewgoogle but it won't allow any web browser to run.
So my question is how do I get a new version of web view to install correctly so I can view current web pages.
I would appreciate help on this and give a good old device a new purpose.
Many thanks in advance
I'm exactly in the same situation, I didnt flash the tablet yet, Just took it out after few years and realized that I can't install anything through playstore nor while downloading an APK of Fully Kiosk Browser . I was thinking of flashing the recovery and installing à new rom but after seeing your post, it sounds like it's not enough..
But when I see

Hey i fell on this thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...t/app-chromium-m56-optimized-tegra-2-t3550210
Download the latest apk, home assistant works very well with that chromium apk.
Okay there is no full screen like full fully Kiosk but at least the browser works very well and if you install that with tasker and the mqtt plugin, you can manage to have cool automations with this tablet !
Hope that helps.
Cheers.

Samsung Internet Browser Global Version

Is there a way to install the samsung internet browser (global edition) where you can change the search engine to google, yahoo, etc.? I use a Chinese version of ROG Phone 5 and it's only installing the 'chinese version' of the browser regardless of its source (apkmirror / google play) and I can only use chinese search engines like Baidu and Sogou.

Maybe the Samsung browser app detects your regional settings.
Have you already tried with a different browser?

I have never installed the Samsung internet browser. But I am sure that you can use some search engines such as Google and Bing in the Firefox browser.

Although its usefulness is very questionable.
Samsung browser has just been relased. Works great
Hmm, it did load. And it does work... more so than the hacked Chrome app I loaded, for sure. Hard-coded bookmarks?? That is a bit strange- how it is a bookmark if you can't change or add one? No way to directly go to a URL. No way to have it remember preferred search engine (always goes back to google). Feels very much "beta" right now. Hopefully it will improve.
Just discovered this browser.. I think adaptation was just made for GW4 or something... It's excellent though.

Lol I've scoured the Play Store and Web for more hours than I care to know... There isn't a list of compatible browsers available for GW4 right now...
-The split Chrome Galaxy Watch 4 bundle linked above.
-Samsung Internet Browser
-Odd Browser
THAT IS IT in terms of browsers that are even remotely useable for continuous web surfing. Take your pick.
Own risk... untested.
