[Q] How can I flash a different country firmware?

Hello guys!
I like cm roms very much,but I can't flash any cm 11 rom because my phone is from china, Samsung have update your phone to 4.2.2,but not the devices in china. As you know,cm 11 won't work on 4.1.2. I fell very very sad about this:crying:.
I try to flash a different country Firmware(4.2.2) through odin3. but it did't work.I know your phone can do this.....:crying: I just want to know why? Is it because my phone's bootloader is locked?
Many friends of mine are also want to flash cm 11....but we can only use cm10.1......:crying:
Baseband:
I9105pzcami1
Andriod vertion:
4.1.2
PLZZ help me and my friends....
(PS:sorry for my bad English)

Have you tried flash cm 11 directly from 4.1 bootloader??,may it works most dev write on their op to use 4.2 bootloader, but none tried and tell us may it works too with 4.1bootloader
Edit#
Or you mayvtry this cm10.1 build from @LuK1337 which stabler and more fluid, say thanks to him

You should only flash "PDA" and not have the "Re-partition" option ticked. For flashing official firmware, follow the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428753
Also, flashing Note2 firmware on an S2 Plus is probably not a very good idea.

oh ,I‘m so sorry,I think my poor English makes you misunderstood,the screenshot isn't of mine...I mean my case is just similar to the picture,I'm sure I flashed a s2vep rom..I tried just flash PDA too...I think it is because my phone's bootloader is locked that what makes the failure..:crying:
I have tried many many methods according to the internet....someone said that I should use mobile odin pro app,but this app won't work in s2vep...I almost feel desperate about this ,I think it's time to buy a new phone...
PS:I can successfully flash an offical 4.1.2 rom...

It's impossible...download 4.2 official stock firmware...use the link given by AmoledIsBetter, follow steps, make sure u use the right firmware for ur phone (P version or no P version), and if something goes wrong come here with screenshots from ODIN. If all its OK u can flash CM11 easy...

Never heard of a locked bootloader on a S2 Plus.
Silly question maybe, but are you using the correct Samsung USB drivers for your PC? Did you flash CM 10.1 from the same PC previously?
Which 4.2.2 file are you trying to flash? I know that many have flashed I9105PXXUBNG1 from Germany.
Is your device genuine Samsung?

I think you are still factory locked. (Still locked to a carrier)

Something I read in a thread in past couple of days is that if it's a Chinese handset they can have their own drivers, so search for them, rest of the world drivers may only part work.

If the ROM you flashed is Marshmallow then you need MM modem, it would be better to flash a 5XX MM firmware then flash Alexis Marshmallow ROM.
In case it is nougat, then update your modem and BL

Can you link me latest bootloader and modem for nougat i want to go back thank you.

It will be better to flash the latest firmware then flash the custom rom, to start from scratch. Download a nougat firmware from sammobile and factory reset your device then flash the rom

Looking for Official Support [Mate 9 Lite - BLL-L23]

Hey, everyone,
I just bought a new Mate 9 Lite [BLL-L23] and would like some help with how to make it my own. I am familiar with other devices - but, not the BLL-L23.
I am very appreciative, my friends! Here's what I'd like to know:
1. Does anyone know when we'll get Android Oreo (or, at the least, Android Nougat)?
-- I am currently running 6.0; EMUI 4.1.
2. Is there an official support forum for the BLL-L23?
3. Does anyone know how to root the BLL-L23 using Magisk or Chainfire (which is better)?
4. Is there a recent TWRP recovery available?
5. What else should I do to take full advantage of my device?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING, EVERYONE!

I am currently downloading the latest full firmware, and I know it's not a problem to install it - but, when I check the Firmware Status, it says that the firmware is not approved for installation. Is there still a way to install it? What does this mean? Thank you very much, PalakMi ?

No problem

Mate 9 Lite is a rebranded H6x, OpenKirin's TWRP works fine. You can also use Firmware Finder for updating. Magisk works fine too. I think all Custom ROMs on this forum should work. I'm planning to flash RROS but I'm waiting for some bugfixes.
The only thing I suggest you is, if you want to update your Stock ROM, you MUST flash the right ROM for your device.

FF update may not work all the time. But for twrp, check and you should get the openkirin twrp from 6X thread working.

Indian ROM download

Hello,
Just got the RN7P from china and I was wondering where can I find the Indian stock ROM (a.k.a. Global ROM)?
Also I live in the EU and from what I've read with the new MIUI 10.3 we will have EU ROM as well?? Is it out yet?
Can't find anything on both my questions in the ROM section of the forum.
Thank you in advance!

Yes we have got Eu ROM too. Here is the thread for it-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7-pro/how-to/rom-miui-10-xiaomi-eu-t3930319
And if you wish to try developer version of Eu, here is the thread for it-

Hi, thank you very much for the provided links. I think it would make things easier, if there are threads created in the ROM&Karnel section for this phone.
What are the main difference between the stable and the developer version of the ROM? Do you get updates if you use the Developer version? Any know bugs?
What about the India Stock ROM? Is it possible to get that one as well?
Thanks in advance

Indian Rom and some info related on the whole thread.

If you flash with miflash (which wipes everything) you can update with system updater. if you flash via TWRP you have to update manually . The beta will be having little more features and there are no major known bugs. I would suggest you stick with EU rom rather than Global(Indian) version.

Thank you for the reply, I will most certainly give the EU a try. One last thing - will both Stable and Developer ROMs get frequent updates? Regarding to MIUI / Android ?? And are those updates pushed vie OTA or do you need to manually flash them?
Thank you again in advance!

Yes, Both will be getting updates. If you flash it through miflash you can update it via OTA else you have to flash it through twrp.

Hi,
Apart from OTA updates, is there any other significant needing on Flash with TWRP instead of MiFlash?
Thank you
