whats the different between all these brand names ...
AL10 -L24 - TL 10 - L21 - L 22
ALL I KNOW IS (TL 10) comes with china mobile label on the back (totally china...some buyer flash it with ROM to be L21)
i check them all regarding Frq and all working fine in my place
the price for L21 -L22 is more than AL10 - TL 10
i think there is something more than bands is different between those All
can somebody clarify me that ....
AL- and TL- are chinesse and come with hiapp store, chinesse voice assistant and other chinesse stuff. I have AL-30 and decided to full wipe to clean up the storage and i ended without anything google at all. BLN-L2X all have different firmware, come with google and all and price varies because some have nfc and gyroscope some have only one of them and chinesse don't have either of. Imo it's a nice thing since i was able to save some money by buying chinesse one since i don't use nfc or gyro. Even if you don't like chinesse stuff, there's a guide to rebrand to a different firmware. I hope you found this helpful.
These are various model series for same phone supporting different bands.
Al10 for China
L22 for India
L24 for US and so on
I'm saw the Mate 30 Pro 5G in a shop this evening and I'm contemplating getting it.
Does anyone see any reason why it wouldn't work ok on Three's 5G in the UK?
It should work well on Three's 5G in the UK. But it is said that Mate 30 doesn't support Google Play.

Yeah, I've switched away from Google Play due to the US blacklisting Huawei (I already use a Chinese Huawei P10). Not having Google Play is not a huge problem, imo, though switching away from Google's products *is* more painful - I had become locked in more than I had realised :/ Still, I don't use many of the Google apps, since I prefer to use their web sites, so I can migrate away gradually. I know to be more aware of locking myself in, in future.
Good to know it should work fine on Three's 5G network. Three also confirm it should work.
Huawei mate 30 pro 5g
Guys we need to pray for the day when they give us international firmware for 5g version.. ?? . I hope it's soon .
Just got this beauty of a phone. 12GB/512GB Version. It is the 2001J1C Version. Only thing I miss about my Mate is that I could buy data from Huawei Anywhere in the world with the eSim, does this phone have a similar feature? This is the Chinese Variant.
Hello all.
Currently i am in china under quarantine. After it finish soon i plan to go buy P40 pro from either a shop or online. I noticed there are 4 model numbers all starting with ELS-
AN00 / TN00
NX9 / N04
from what i see first 2 is china edition, other 2 global edition.
My question is, if i can't find global version to buy in china, what i loose buying the china version?
For example, no local language support, any problem installing anything?.. Or problems changing roms?
I searched net all over hardly found which model is which. Can any tell me cons and pros?
(i would want to use my local language, and install gplay in the future whenever posible)
Hi all,
I am going to buy a new Mate 20 X.
Apart from the used ones, the only brand new I can find are on Aliexpress, like this one
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32970338476.html
There is the option of adding the global Rom as they say
"
if you need global firmware, please order the bundle" add global firmware". then we will install global firmware EVR-L29 to the phone
"
Will this mean that i'll have the AL00 as it was a L29?
Will OTA updates work out of the box?
Will I have problems with bank apps for example?
The rebrand to L29 is something I could do home with the help of XDA community ?
Thanks all
I was able to find a new L29 in the UK from a established vendor recently, but it wasn't cheap. I previously owned a AL00 for a couple of weeks, as it was sold to me in error (a Chinese version sold as global). When I owned that I did find a few independent phone shops online that would change the firmware remotely. So that's probably still an option. All found through Google.
Nothing is guaranteed of course but I would expect that most things on the phone would work ok, if you get it from your AliExpress vendor. But who knows. That's why I paid more, from a known vendor, with a proper guarantee. You pay your money and make your choice
Simply buy the Chinese version, that's by far the best option!
Definitely do NOT pay that extra money for changing AL00 to L29! It will NOT make it a proper L29, they just load a firmware which says L29... and you get absolutely NO benefits (actually, you may get just issues with updates, etc.)
With the Chinese version you get some advantages like enabled call recording, earlier and more frequent updates of built-in apps, or the Harmony OS upgrade.
The Chinese version works absolutely normal, all languages are available, etc.
I found a seller that showed me a EVR-L29 but imported from CHina (in fact the Huawei warranty is for HK and China only).
Since L29 global version is the same everywhere...This one should work ok, I guess, right?
The label on the package says L29 and they said they've just put the firmware with other languages (I didn't get this part, but maybe the one I was talking to isn't a specialist)
As I said, Chinese version simply WORKS without any problems. Plus, has even some advantages.
Absolutely no reason hunting for global version.

What advantages? I heard EVR-L29 is the one to get because you have access to google play store
All versions of Mate 20 X have Google Services... they always had.
Mate 20 X was released BEFORE the sanctions, i.e. Mate 20 X never had any problem with GMS whatsoever.
I own the EVR-L29 global version, which I imported from Singapore a few years ago. I love the phone and have been looking for a second one for my wife. I have some questions about buying the Chinese version rather than the global version. With previous Chinese version phones from Oppo and Vivo, although they came with the Google Framework and Google Play Services, there were some differences between them and the global versions I couldn't get used to. For example, I could use the Google Assistant by tapping its icon, but the phones wouldn't respond to voice activation "OK Google", because that conflicted with their own baked in Chinese voice assistant app. Android Auto wouldn't work, because it conflicted with their built in app, and there were several Chinese apps I couldn't uninstall and some Chinese text in submenus. Is this the case with the Chinese version of the Mate 20 X? The Chinese version has the advantage of more RAM and storage than the global version, and like the post above, I'm tempted to have one of the AliExpress vendors flash the global ROM on the Chinese version, but I have a concern updates won't work, as the Huawei servers will know it is a Chinese version. Thanks for any advice.
I have the EVR-L00 and I need to downgrade to Android 9 so I can unlock the bootloader. How do I do that? I got the special Harmony cable that I needed. Now I'm not sure what to do next.
