Hi,
That version you're trying to buy is most probably the EU global version, which comes with all Global languages pre-installed. If you insert your SIM before the first time setup (first boot), your phone should automatically recognize your region and adjust itself accordingly.
If your language isn't included, you can unlock the Bootloader, flash official firmware from a different reigon and then Re-lock it again.
Also, as a Seasoned Xiaomi device enthusiast, here are a couple tips before buying/deciding:
There are some complaints and many reviews that the proximity sensor is sometimes defective on Arrival from seller, making calls extremely uncomfortable. Make sure to check its functionality before the Return window closes.
I own the Poco X3 NFC, which has the same snapdargon 732g chipset. Trust me when I say this, MIUI 12.5 is not optimized quite well for them. Games also don't recognize the right graphical settings for it. (Unless you plan to run a Custom ROM/Root immediately)
If you can sacrifice having a 3.5mm jack/sdcard, I would suggest buying the POCO F3, which is practically the same price but with the sd 870 chipset, an 200% increase in performance. Making MIUI actually usable.
If you must have 3.5mm/sdcard but can forgo an amoled screen for an LCD one, I would suggest the POCO X3 pro. It comes with the snapdragon 860 chipset and is cheaper in price anyways.
More answers can be found in the device sub-forum. Have fun with your new purchase

I cannot flash note 10 pro after I installed arrow rom , I guess it happened after the update of arrow rom. Before it was working fine.
Try everything from Twrp .. like cleaning
a.dalvik cache
b.System
C.metadata
d.Data
e.Cache
And even format...
arrow rom shows up again after reboot .....any help?

I also think it must come with all Global languages pre-installed.

Hello all! Quick questions for you :)

Hi all guys!
I am considering to get the Nokia 7 however I am still not 100% sure because of the non-localization it provides. I would appreciate if you could answer some of my questions to help me out decide:
1. Is the stock rom multilanguage? If not, is there a multilanguage rom to be flashed?
2. What about the band 20 (800mhz)? Did anyobody realize if it is a hardware limitation or only software (i see that in a few Xiaomi devices like the Mi 5c they managed to unlock it). Is anybody working on it?
3. What should one do to localize it in Europe? Installing Playstore, G services and gapps?
Basically, would you recommend it as a good buy in Europe? I really like it more than the Nokia 7+ because of its form factor.
Thanks to all of those who will help me out
Hi Andy, I bought it on LightintheBox, I did not know the phone, but I got it anyway because I liked it. Now I need China Rom to enable updates from HMD GLOBAL. They told me it's Global version, but it's really raw as an operating system. This Global version does not update. For now is not good for Europe without updates. I'm living in Italy so there is no band 20 (800mhz).
Hi Andy,
I brought mine from coolicool last month and
1. yes, it does come with a multilanguage rom... which cannot be stock because that is chinese+english only. upon startup the phone lapses into an endless "checking for updates" cycle but it can be circumvented (see above topic) after which it works normally.
2. B20 (800mhz) does not seem to be supported by the hardware. that said, the phone works flawlessy on both 3G and 4G (vodafone), handles wifi and data well, comes with google's basics installed and downdoads/updates apps via playstore as it should.
3. based on my (limited) experience, i do recommend it.
pros: well designed and built, runs smoothly, no bloatware, bargain for USD 250
cons: not exactly international (might not see the android 8 update already out for the chinese version), system takes up 17GB (!) of internal memory
nokia 7

hi i bought a nokia 7 global rom from china and the rom causes a lot of problems .So i advise you to go for the chinese/english version and get ota updates and install google play apk file.Now i have flashed back to stock firmware(chinese/english) and now the phone works properly on android 8.1.0. .About band 20 i think is working
here in sweden as far as i know.I think it is a good buy if it is on stock rom(chinese/english) version so good luck

How to know if a Realme phone has Chinese ROM or Global ROM

How can I know if my Realme phone has the Chinese ROM, or Global ROM, (besides the label on the box)?
Is there a section in the settings app that provides such info?
Also, if a malicious seller installs Global ROM on the Chinese variant hardware and tries to pass it as a genuine global variant, how can I identify such fraud?
Or, can I just enter the IMEI on a website fo check its ROM edition?
P.S. I have never used a Realme or OPPO phone.
( In Xiaomi phones, Global version phones have "MIUI Global" written in their phone settings' About section. Also, these phones have ROM codes ending in ***MIXM. While Chinese version phones have ***CNXM. Is there a similar info to be found in Realme ColorOS Settings?)

There is barely any difference between the two but Chinese Rom is different because it's codename isn't Realme 5 Pro but Realme Q. It's almost impossible not to notice. If you had Chinese rom in settings about phone there would be Realme Q under model label, not realme 5 pro. Furthermore in case you didn't notice that there would be preinstalled Chinese market and apps and less or none Google stuff.

If the seller for some reason put global rom on your model which was made for Chinese market (which I highly doubt for it's no easy feat and takes time+effort furthermore it'd not worth it from the perspective of the seller) then there's no way you could notice that.
Except if you're a very advanced user like me. There are tiny differences between Chinese model hardware and global hardware so you shouldn't worry. There are two key differences (which I think are rather hardcoded than hardware limitation). One is that Chinese Realme Q has smaller system partition size for Chinese rom uses less storage because missing Google stuff. Other is global and Chinese variant modem antenna seems to support different 4G bands. Obviously Realme Q supports bands that are frequently used in China while global supports bands that are used in worldwide. This means Realme Q hardware is limited thus doesn't support European B7 and B20 4G bands.

Yes. And more obvious.
Chinese market>Realme Q (RMX1971CN)
Global>Realme 5 Pro(RMX1971EX)
But don't bother trying to find device codenames with non-root apps. They don't make a difference between RMX1971CN and RMX1971EX.
Some extra info and details:
I ordered a Realme Q from China via AliExpress last October. Since then I'm using my device in Europe, Hungary and I'm in love with it. All the technical details I shared are results of personal testing and debugging. I'll tell you why you shouldn't worry about a Realme Q sold as a Realme 5 Pro.
If a seller wanted to do this for some reason they'd need to ask for official bootloader unlock from Realme. After getting the unlock approval (which isn't nearly sure for monthly unlock cap is 1000 device) they'd need to flash a custom recovery on it and clean flash a Realme 5 Pro global rom on the device. Fastboot flashing doesn't always work with this method. Furthermore because Realme Q system partition isn't as big as Realme 5 Pro's there would be complications.
After successfully flashing Global rom on the device the seller would need to flash back stock recovery and relock bootloader. This would likely confuse the device and cause bootloop. This whole procedure is timely, lots of effort required and some serious skill. As conclusion it is totally pointless and not worth it for any seller. The procedure is nearly the same on Xiaomi devices. So such logic applies there as well.

In some South/Southeast Asian countries, Chinese versions of phones sell cheap, but obviously people want the global version. That's why sellers used to do such scam. It seems unbelievable but it used to be very common in countries like India. But after makers like Xiaomi locked down their devices (e.g. bootloader unlock waiting period, anti-rollback protection, ROM flashing requires unlocked bootloader even if it's meant for the same device, etc.), this practice has all but disappeared. I wasn't really sure if a newer brand like Realme would have similar protections, but seems like they do have them. So I guess I'm covered.
And thanks for your comprehensive answer. It's really helpful.
On a side note, does ColorOS/RealmeOS have these features built-in: call recording, screen recording, dual-apps/clone-apps, second space/parallel space, etc.?

Xiaomi mi 11 Pro

please a question, the xiaomi mi 11 Pro will not be released globally? I researched and would like this information please.. a seller Aliexpress said he can change the language, because the chinese version has only chinese and english .. maybe flash another rom. he said that doing this will take another 15 days to send. saw a tutorial that make the global flash rom in minutes. work 5g in Brazil?
There is another problem, when you use not global version, chinese changed soft you will not have netflix on HD etc
Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro can be very easily converted from Chinese Version to Global or EEA.

Hi,
All information you can find at this forum but first you must unlock bootloader (official unlock through Xiaomi) and it takes 7 days. After that you can choose right for you ROM (Global - hevily based on Google Apps, EEA - less Google Apps, EU Custom - close to original Chinese ROM). I sold my 11 Pro but now I regret it.
Just buy it and after that contact me again. In meantime you can register to Xiaomi.
Regards

Why do you regret it? The camera it's awful, no Desktop Mode, USB 2.0 instead of 3.1....

Camera isn't awful - most flagship smartphones have similar cameras now, they all perform really good
Which global Xiaomi smartphone has desktop mode? MIUI+ is still in beta and only available in China (MIUI+ doesn't even have english interface)
And no Xiaomi phone has USB 3.1 - they all have USB 2.0, including the recently announced Xiaomi 12 phones..
That's why I've said that Xiaomi phones are awful. About the camera, I can disagree with you, even a P30 Pro that's a 3-year-old device is performing better than a Mi 11 Pro....

Sorry, You are wrong about the camera. Just got my 11 pro which I also had before and then sold it (just had to return to it ) In the meantime I had p30 pro, p40 pro, S21 Ultra, Find x2 pro...The Xiaomi is better than those smartphones, at least in my eyes.

Why do you say it's better? The zoom's awful, night photos are pretty bad, and daylight photos are not ok. Also, no Desktop Mode, USB 2.0, and software with bugs, you need to complicate with Xiaomi.EU rom to solve this...
I really hate that Huawei doesn't have GMS anymore, otherwise I would pick a P50 Pro/Mate 40 Pro with my eyes closed cause my S20+ sucks.
I have the Pro-version. Have also had standard Mi 11 and Mi 11 Ultra. For some reason I get clearly better battery life on 11 Pro compared to both 11 and 11 Ultra. Not sure why. I think the better battery life is the biggest advantage for me with 11 Pro over the standard Mi 11. The GN2 sensor on 11 Pro is really good but not that much better than the HMX-sensor in Mi 11. Sometimes I think that the 27MP binned photos from Mi 11 may be preferable since I like detailed photos.

Question POCO X5 5G

Maybe i should
I want one too, just seems like no one has been interested in developing after the Poco x3 pro was dropped, being to do with the SoCs being used or something. I don't want to be forced to use garbage miui :'( or whatever the Poco reskin is called.

so there will be no custom roms for x5?
Would help if Xda opened a sub forum for the non pro model.
Yeah. I know this device just launched 5 weeks ago, but if I'd suspected the X5 5G would get so little love here at XDA, I might've gotten the X4 Pro instead...
I'm actually looking into compiling my own TWRP recovery for it, and an AOSP ROM when I've learned enough about custom ROM development.
Is there any way to request XDA consider opening a forum for a particular phone?

Well I guess you could PM one of the admins/mods, but final decision would be up to their goodwill (or lack thereof), evidently.
It would make a lot of sense to create a dedicated forum though, as the X5 is powered by the Snapdragon695 and not a 7xx series as the X5 Pro is, which *probably* means that ROMs for the latter wouldn't be flashable on the former -not without incurring risks anyway...

There's usually a firmware, boot and vendor img difference which does make it incompatible, in most cases, and would need some tweaking to make it work right. But you're welcome to give it a test run, learn from experience. There are times with OEMs are lazy and it does actually work.

even for custom ROMs? Incase the X5 does't gain popularity (which seems to be the way it's going), I was wondering if we could use custom ROMs for X4 pro in the future.

Yep. It's uncommon to be able to use a different device's ROM even when the specs are similar. Unless you're using a gsi. It takes a while before custom roms start appearing after a phones release. Debloat and use as is would be my recommendation till then, if you already bought the phone. The Pro version is also likely to be more popular, among the enthusiast community, from what I can see.
So there's likely to be some trickle down effect of roms from the Pro versions to the non-pro

Which is ironic, because the X5p does not have any kind of possibility of storage expansion by SDcard (while the vanilla X5 does provide a shared SIM/SD slot), making even the 256Gb version utterly useless for my use cases...

To be fair, it's been a while since I've seen anything that has the 7 series chipsets to have a hybrid or dedicated SD slot. Just how the market playing field is, once you enter the mid-high range. Not great for the customer but that's capitalism for ya.
The Poco X5 5G may not be as popular as the Pro, but it's actually a very smooth phone if you don't play demanding games. Just received Android 13 update last night. My biggest gripe is the MIUI, which I don't like. After installing Nova7, the user interface is a lot more familiar and better.

For daily use, it is quite smooth, the camera performance is trash though. GCam fixes most of it but the videos are still grainy. The X5 might be catching on now as it has received a big discount on an e-commerce platform recently. Nova or Lawnchair makes the experience pleasing but you miss out the gesture navigation which is a bummer.
Hello!
Is it possible to turn off the images of the camera settings in the Portrait mode of the Poco X5 5G/Poco X5 Pro 5G?
If possible, then it would be possible to shoot video in video bokeh mode.
My phone turned itself off today. Has anyone had this issue before?

Seconded !
I've used the Microsoft Launcher for a long while before I bought the X5 5G a week after its global launchdate, but in the long run on MIUI 13 it turned out to be just too goddamn much of a battery hog...
So upon reading a comment from another member here that he was very satisfied with Nova I decided to give it a try, and felt so at ease with it that barely 20mins passed before I bought the Premium version. xD
But I do sorely miss the MS launcher's leftmost pane tho (the one where you can take quick notes and display your Outlook calendar, which is what I used it most for). :/

Yup. I traced it down to a dirty fingerprint sensor : some oil or grease traces would make it wrongly detect a long press or multiple short presses and trigger a shutdown.
A good, energetic cleaning with a rubbing alcohol-imbibed tissue then a thorough drying fixed it right up!
Any new news on custom roms? I want to get the phone on sale but I dread using MIUI

Hey bro. I bought a Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro, 12gb ram and 256gb rom.
Its running chinese Miui pad software. After removing bloat (Some chinese apps) its absolutely the best ive ever had. Ive been using Xiaomi phones with miui for a while, and never used chinese roms.
But this one, on another level.
1) There are not too many issues i faced. Google play store was even pre-installed! (never had that before)
Its smooth, english works fine, can remove most apps that are chinese, and all runs fine.
Only thing i can think of, is that when using other launchers, like Nova, some animaltions/dualscreen shortcuts work alittle less easy.
But for most, the normal standard launcher (With a smart dock) works fine.
2) since I live in Myanmar,I get them straight from china, so cant say much on places elsewhere,for this version i paid about 450usd. cant match that im afraid.
3) not that i can think of. There is a Xiaoxin lenovo tablet, that has the 870 snapdragon, but again, where would you get it from..
If you have any questions regarding the tablet, let me know,ill do my best in answering!
I bought the Mi Pad 6 Chinese version. I unlocked the bootloader and installed the global ROM (Indian version). Extremely satisfied. I hope there will be more custom ROMs available for it soon.

i just read a guide on unlocking bootloader. it requires a sim card and a data connection to work. and this device doesnt have that. how did you bypass this?
Which guide have you read? It's simple, just use Xiaomi's unlock tool and wait for 7 days.
I appreciate you guys for the advice, I was afraid before but thanks for giving me the advice.
I like the tablet very much. Speed, battery life, feel, quality.
But MIUI is absolute sh*t, especially the chinese version with its preinstalled keyboards and bloatware.
You have to put the GBoard on it ASAP and disable / uninstall a lot of apps.
In the chinese version some messages are not translated and therefore displayed in chinese.
I'm currently waiting for the bootloader to unlock and then install another ROM.

1. Some of the messages will be in Chinese, but apparently installing morelocale solves a lot of problems
2. I bought me a pad 6 pro from tradingshenzen and it arrived in Poland in 10 days from China - I also know other people who bought from this portal. I had no duty or added tax.
The second reliable source is giztop gives a link to xiaomi pad 6 and xiaomi pad 6 pro (it's not much more expensive).
3. this is the best offer I've seen on giztop LENOVO XIAOXIN PAD PRO 2022 - but I don't know if it's worth it because previous versions were a drama when it comes to unlock and root, or watching netflix (problem with certificates).

1. Some of the messages will be in Chinese, but apparently installing morelocale solves a lot of problems

The answer is obvious. Why will there be a ROM specific to a country where the product will never be release?

Obvious for an Indian person living in India
In my case I am just looking for a Rom other than Chinese one
Hi
Bought the Xiaomi Pad 6 (6gb/128gb) Chinese version a week ago via eBay from EU for £317. Great tablet, came with Google play installed and filled it with required apps. Only problem is that some system Chinese apps cannot be uninstalled. Am waiting until a Global rom is available and then I will unlock and root . Don't mind MIUI as have a Xiaomi Redmi note 12.
