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.

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

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.
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

I think you get me wrong, I only managed to work google authenticator.
Still cant add a Google account. Also many apps not properly working. If you still want to apks I can write the versions of these apps.
We need a new rom, also a way to unlock bootloader.
Any news?
Hello,
Based in France, I also bought the Nova 4e with Chinese android that is blocking most of Google apps, I couldn't even use Deezer and Whatsapp at the begining.
I have been trying all the possible scenarios that I found online, when arriving at the point of installing and launching the Google play store app (any version), the app was crashing and the phone was then becoming really unstable.
the only option I finally found, is to press *#*#2846579#*#* and do a factory reset, then restarting the phone and choosing to clone with my previous android phone (HTC desire 10 pro), after doing that download and install only these 3 APK of (reminder: at this stage you have to download APK files to install apps, from your phone directly or from a PC):
Google Account Manager.
Google Services Framework.
Google Play Services.
DON'T INSTALL GOOGLE PLAY STORE!
You can use APK Pure that is a neutral play store where you can download all popular apps just like on the classical google play store.
If you have a Gmail email box, you can use the Huawei email app that is really good or use a great alternative named myMail.
To substitute Google map you can use Waze or Here WeGo, as you need to log in with your Google account to use YouTube you can use as a substitute: Play tube app.
Google chrome is working so you can also use some Google apps like Google drive, Gmail , you tube or Google agenda from chrome.
All the other apps work fine, Facebook, instagram.... actually being in such situation make you think that Google is really everywhere in your phone and make you think differently forcing you to search for alternatives.
I bought this phone on a Chinese website, in the item description it was written "Huawei P30 Lite Nova 4E" actually if you encounter the same problem as me and you have received a NOVA 4E the seller is wrong and if you open a dispute with reason "parameter not as described" the seller will probably refused to refund but then the website should intervene and say you are right, in my case they offered me the solution below:
Option 1: Return goods Full refund (Seller pays the returning shipping fee)
I think that I will keep the phone, I will probably try to root it but It seems the bootloader code for this phone is not available at the moment, some people even say there is no code for this phone so I don't really know how to root it.
If somebody manage to do it I would be interested to have the procedure.
Many thanks @Tib-fr for sharing this procedure, it's been the only useful hint that worked for me so far after trying multiple alternatives. My Google Chrome doesn't work but I can use Firefox. I cloned a P30 Pro into my Nova4e. Appreciated your help very much, keep well ?

HEllo @edbfkn you are welcome, by cloning a p30 pro in your nova4e can you use some other google apps ?
I haven't tested it extensively but noticed: some apps could not be properly installed on Nova4e (probably due to lack of GMS) and I didn't need to install the 3 Google APKs as you described. Other Google apps such as Play Music work but obviously I can't log in with my account. The non-Google 3rd party apps are so far working normally ? I'll continue testing and will let u know of any new finding!
Hola a todos.. Igual que ustedes tengo un nova 4e..
Hay alguna solución?
install rom
I saw that you can put a rom, it's called MAR-LX2, even so I don't know how to put the firmware.
MAR-LX1B should work with gaps without issues in EU atleast, I am not sure if it will work to flash firmware between different variant codes however

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.
