Good day,
I have a Vivo X30 Pro (V1938T), and I would like to know what custom ROM I can install to it, as I am not the biggest fan of the Chinese ROM.
The device is not Google Certified. I only found this out after I got the phone along with the Chinese only ROM. I can however still use the Play store and services fully. Is the certification a requirement for custom ROM?
Thank you in advance.

Hi all,
I am planning to buy oneplus 7 pro from china that comes with GM1910 CN version in a day or two. Once i get the device, i plan to flash it to global rom using local upgrade method.
After it's flash to global rom, can anyone who have tried this local upgrade method confirm if :
1. google play protect status shows that the device is certified?
2. Does it pass SafetyNet verification and shows that device is not rooted ?
Really appreciated your help to provide me your inputs
Thanks and Best Regards,
Alim
i got my phone GM1910 china version today. i do a local upgrade to Android 10 beta.
And FYI, google play protect says that this device is certified. And it passes safetynet test.
Amazing. For those who wanted to try out the CN version and flash to global rom, this is worth trying.
Hello XDA forums,
I've recently required a global version of the mi 10 ultra after a phone swap. I'm not flash/bootloading/ROM toting gunslinger and have no clue about this software installed on the phone called TWRP.
From my research I've found it's a bootloader that allows the device to be used in other countries and gives access to Google play store.
But I just wondered whether going back to stock is an option, and if so, would that present any issues i.e. lose assess to play store.
If there is a simplified guide or any guide in general I'd be more than happy to look at it
Kind regards

TWRP or Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery meant to add custom roms, root the rom or make any modifications to the phone's software.

Thank you for clarifying that for me having spoke to someone via the Xiaomi forums, they stated that it is used on the mi 10 ultra to by pass the Chinese stock ROM and allow Google play store.
The thing I'm lost about is what ROM am I currently using and how do I update it? Would you be able to direct me to some information to troubleshoot this?
Kind regards,
Alex

Ah no I was wondering whether TWRP is vital to it's operation, as I've tried to factory reset and for some reason it is still retaining the previous owners information. I'm thinking it's due to TWRP

Basically Yes, you will lose access to the playstore as China does not allow it on their phones. The 10 ultra's sold to people outside of China had a cutdown version of Google services put on but it did not have location history or find phone and other parts. If you do go back to stock Chinese, you can find playstore app in their version of appstore and if you install it, you can get full Google services again.
If you have the Xiaomi EU ROM installed and you live outside of China, then that version is your best bet. It comes in 2 versions, weekly or stable and both are still updated, so make your choice, stock ROM is available here.. http:/mifirm.net and do a search for cas or mi 10 ultra and install the latest fastboot or recovery ROM if you have twrp recovery installed ( you probably will if you have the EU ROM) or pop over the Xiaomi EU forum for the latest info here.. https://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/xiaomi-mi-10-pro-10lite-ultra-10t-pro-lite-10s.204/ and here for the weekly ROM.. https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-12-0-12-1-12-2-12-5-stable-release.56191/ and the weekly ROM here.. https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/21-6-16-17.61822/ .
All the info on twrp and the ROMs are on the Xiaomi EU forum but there is lots of help and advice here once you make your choice of where you want to go. The 10 Ultra is a dam good phone with the latest EU ROM installed.

Hello, I have a phone I ordered from China and received it two weeks ago with working google services - I'm really happy with this phone and the ROM(even though I tried unlocking the bootloader in order to change ROM to eu. but that didn't work).
Does anyone have experience with updating a Chinese ROM phone and not losing google services?
would love for some help or direction to some sources on this issue

In ROM China you will have problems with Google
The best way is to install a custom Eu ROM
The new version of the custom ROM is very easy to install
Just need to unlock the bootloader
Google Services works fine even in China beta. Basic Google Services are included as with all Snapdragon 8xx phones with MIUI. You only have to install Play Store manually and also calendar sync.
Hi all,
I'm looking to replace my Huawei Honor 5 tablet, which have been an absolute disaster with the lack of google play and any attempts to install apks fail to get it working consistently.
My question on Lenovo P11 Plus tablet is what is the difference between the Chinese and Global ROM?
I'm looking to buy the tablet off the official Lenovo website from taobao directly. (no Global ROM) The spec says Android 10, not 11.
My essential requirement is the ability for OTA updates, full google play support and certification. Just don't want the risk of having any issues with google play as my son will be using it and certain apps need connection with google play. Or is it regional locked in that if I use the tablet in Australia, I can't use certain features?
I am presuming streaming service will work with the Chinese ROM?
Thank you!
Hi,
I own a P11 Pro (former CN). Because of Plus have different SoC I can't tell you how easy it is to change ROM. For Qualcomm it is easy.
The CN ROM on my P11Pro does NOT have Google Apps on it. It was complete chinese. App, Store everyting.You can change language to english but it remains all china.
After flashin ROW aka Global ROM it became fully international WITH all Google services as we non china people know Android.
BUT Lenovo can identify whre the device comes from, based on the serial number.
If you try to register it, you will fail with CN serial an overseas.
So there is no guarantee that a re-flased device keeps certified.
Before re-flashing you should backup everthing.
I have missed that so I lost device certification an Widevine.
On Qualcomm you need to backup seqveral partionins (better all) and a so called QCN with EFS.
Don't know how this works on Plus with Mediatek SoC.
Best regards

.In your version does not bring Google Services? How weird, in mine yes, but I needed to install the apk from the Play Store to make it work.
Maybe it depends on each Tablet
Hello everyone, my friend has this phone (Honor magic V and I would love to know if is it possible to port a rom from another phone with the same soc to this one, I once have ported rom from Mediatek to another Mediatek device but I have never tried porting on Snapdragon based device, can someone please enlighten me?
The main reason for this is to get Google services working on this device as I have searched everywhere for the way to install Google apps to no avail
Anyone?
To the best of my knowledge, it's not possible to install Google Play Services on that phone.

I have honor magic vs (chinese version sadly) its still on android 12 magic os 7 and cant install play store but for sure global rom(magic os 7.1 ) has gms integration possible. Now the problem is if chinese devices will get an update based on removal of global restrictions or not. chinese people don't use google for obvious reasons.
ping me if you have any update. I am also trying my seller to get international rom for mine.
