Hello,
does anybody located in Europe using the Middle East Version with 128GB/6B RAM of HTC U11 in Europe?
If yes, are there any technical restraints, like functions unavailable, bands not covered etc.?
Thank you!

European and Middle Eastern dual-SIM U11 models have identical Model IDs and firmware and only differ by their CIDs. You can use them interchangeably, LTE frequency band support is the same.
Thank you, Kisakuku, that's motivating.
Be aware however that the UAE version does not have Google assistant or Amazon Alexa. I even tried signing up to the beta version of Google play services & the Google app to no avail.

Thanks, but as far as I could experience both work. Well, Alexa at least could be installed, with Google assistant I already worked a little bit. So, no limitations here.

My doubt is because I'm in China and I want to buy a phone with Google Services by default. I already bought a Galaxy S6 and even the HK version is with Google Services bloqued.
No one?
I believe it's probably because Google isn't allowed to offer the Google Play services in your country?

Yes, yes, I know this, but... it happen in all brands here? Even on the Google Pixel?? Is completely illogical. And also, my version is from Hong Kong, where Google is not restricted. I don't understand

Hell yes! If possible buy the Indian version, it comes with pre installed Gapps.
Buy Indian version
I have the indian version as im from India, and its an excellent phone.
Phones from china dont usally have google services installed so i recommend to get it from India, as all services are installed.
Unfortunately I was only able to order Chinese version? I had to go with gearbest... What sucks is they put the Global 845 version up for only 110$ more after I bought the phone. I tried to cancel order but it already shipped.

I'm in the US on T-Mobile (sim1) and att (sim2) no issues although I had to fix apn cuase the auto assigned on did have a couple of settings for my T-Mobile SIM. As for the Google play it's works just fine, just take note it's not certified device so some apks you'll have side load ie Netflix etc. etc.
Vivo account is pretty annoying and so is the default luncher. I switched mine to Nova and got a vivo an account made from the seller I got it from.

Nope. Calls bounce back to 3g service.
Hi everyone. I read few post about the EML-AL00 (chinese version). It is right now available for the same price than the international version on Amazon US (L29). But the chinese version comes with 6GB of RAM instead of 4.
I would like to get this phone for my wife but I need to know what will work and what will not.
- T-Mobile 4G
- T-Mobile LTE
- Google Pay
- Android Auto
- Wifi Calling
- VOLTE
- ...
How about updates with that version ?
Basically, as I am not a nerd, I don't want to to rebranded the phone or anything like that, but I do think than 6GB makes a lot of difference in term of fluidity. I know the P20pro could be the the one to go but it's still pricey and the form factor is not the same. THe P20 seems to have a perfect size.
Is your advise is to forget about the Chinese version because it will be a painful experience to use in the US and go with the L29 instead ?
Thanks already!
Hi!
You will have 4G, calling, and all of this, but chinise versions dont have Google Play Services, but you can get Play Store from inthernet, by searching with default browser.
News system will be in Chinise, all of this things will be in Chinise country, nothing for European peoples.
Sorry for my english, i think you understand what i tell you. ?
Hi,
I have the EML-AL00 (Chinese) model and was using it in Australia.
As I'm not in the US, I can't speak for T-Mobile usability. Judging by the network bands it has with T-Mobile, it has bands 2, 4, 5 and 12, but missing bands 66 and 71, so in theory it might work. But I can't guarantee anything here.
However, the device does come with Google Play Services preinstalled, the Google Play Store itself is the only thing missing for some reason. So you just have to install the Play Store apk and you'll be good to go in this regard. The device is Google Play Certified, so Android Auto, Google Pay all work normally. VoLTE was working for me in Australia as well.
Unfortunately, since it's the Chinese version, there are a few restrictions compared to the international variant, such as inability to change the launcher and uninstallable Chinese bloatware . But upside is that it is the first variant to receive software updates; it is currently on stable Android 10 .
I hope this helped you!

hello there, my friend has the same EML-AL00 device, is it possible to install global ROM to this? it has android 10 emui 10 Chinese ROM for now
Hi!
So I am getting a Chinese version of OnePlus 7 Pro with Hydrogen, where I will put latest Oxygen on.
Does anyone know, what is the difference in preinstalled apps on Global firmware, compared to EU?
I live in Europe, so EU makes sense, but I read that EU does not have Google Pay, for example. Also I understood EU soft is the most bloat-free due to EU privacy protection laws.
Anyone knows other differences?

I can confirm that google pay doesn't work because is not supported by google in EU. Only system app that is non-google or non-oneplus is Netflix on EU firmware.
Thanks for the info. But did you have Google Pay preinstalled in the ROM on your EU software, or you installed it on your own from the Play store?
Cause Google Pay for sure works in many Europesn countries already like: Germany, Pomand, Spain, Italy and many more.

It's available in France since 2018.
Google pay did not come preinstalled on my EU Oneplus 7 pro

It is preinstalled.
This is a really elementary question: this is my first smart watch. I have a new Galaxy 4 watch. I was not careful when I ordered and ended up with an "International" version. (I only get Latin American countries as choices for my region.) I'm not sure of what limitations this will cause. E.g., can I use Google Pay or Samsung Pay? Will my apps function properly? Alternatively is there a way to get the US version via a software update or etc?
Sorry for the simple questions, but any help or information would be gratefully welcomed.
Can you tell me if the "internal" version has the Blood Pressure option and ECG? I keep reading that the USA version currently does not support those two options... Something about waiting for FDA approval. I an from the USA but live in Colombia and I have not need for Google Pay or Samsung Pay as no stores except either where I am at.

No blood pressure or ECG functions show up for me. Columbia is one of the countries in the regions listed on the watch.
