Question [DOUBT] Sync Google backup and Edge S chinese rom - Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S

I bought an Edge S already running global rom (retbr now). I want come back to its original chinese rom retcn. So:
- Can I restore and sync my Google backup (contacts, sms, password and other infos) in the chinese rom, like G100 global roms? If yes, how to do it?
- Can I run Android Auto, Netflix and other global apps in the chinese rom?
- Will I lose (or gain) something using Edge S chinese rom instead G100 global roms, like camera quality, features, performance?

I've used both retcn and reteu official versions of rom for this device and here what I can say:

Yes, all this work as intended, but you will need to install:
"Google Contacts Sync" by Google LLC, search for com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts
"Google Play Store" by Google LLC, search for com.android.vending
"Google Services Framework" by Google LLC, search for com.google.android.gsf
and choose latest stable version for android version on your phone.

The only problem I've encountered is on both firmware there is now Multi-volume but on reteu it works on retcn - not.
Also here a post states that you should Disable or user uninstall Moto dialer, contacts, Lenovo AppCenter and LeCloud before installing above apk's as they seem to interfere with contact sync, cannot say the same off my experience, you can user uninstall almost anything using this command:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.motorola.contacts.preloadcontacts.overlay.vzw
This will user uninstall Moto Contacts.

How to restore Apps, Contacts, ... from Google account on Mi Mix 2S Chinese version ?

As I know, we need to download 谷歌安装器 (Google Installer) first then follow the steps. But everything seems a bit different now when we come to MIUI 9.5 (Android 8). I got "can't install system applications from unofficial channels" error on the first tap on Google Installer, and there is no "Unknown Sources" option in privacy setting anymore, instead it's "Install unknow apps" section with a list of installed apps . I turn it on for 谷歌安装器 (Google Installer) but still got that error. Am I missing something ?
Hello, why don't use EU rom ?Xiaomi offical just posted them.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi.../files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-WEEKLY-RELEASES/8.4.12/
Do I need to root first ?
you would need to root your device first to use the EU rom, waiting for a global rom would be the key .. not sure how long though
Few days ago the Global rom has been released along with TWRP to flash this rom. Here are the links
TWRP
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850507462
MIUI Global Multi language
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850507699
Thats fine but Xaomi change the unlock time and i shall wait 13 days
I have now playstor installed but cant access my contacts, there is no sync entry for contacts in google settings. Any idea?
This is not the official global rom. It's a custom rom by xiaomi.eu based on the chinese rom. Xiaomi.eu belongs in no way to xiaomi! However it's very popular and you can installit as soon as your bootloader is unlocked, many people prefer it over normal global rom(which will be released on 26. april
@tasar, just install google contacts you will get the contacts synced.
Will I still be able to use the "find my device" feature if I install the Xiaomi.eu rom ?
The google find my device feature works on every rom as far as I know. Or are you talking about a miui specific feature?

Install Google Play into China ROM for Redmi 10X

Why this long story?
It is easy to download the Google service from the official xiaomi app store by searching for Google and install the app in the picture!
what about whatsapp backup?
does whatsapp recognize added gmail account to take backup ?
usually google play is in prev-app in /system

Is there any downside of running Chinese firmware for a user in Europe? I usually flash Xiaomi EU on phones from Xiaomi. However, since Redmi 10X 5G runs on a MTK-chip a EU-rom will probably not be released.

Looks like we'll be resigned to the Chinese variant I can't see Xiaomi releasing a global variant of this phone. It's a caveat but one we'll just have to get used to

Right, because the processor from Mediatech might be late, and we might not be watching a global rom, it's possible.
Hi, i recently got the 10x 5g pro and installed google services though mi app store. Still there are some issues for example i dont get push notifications on gmail or i cant make whatsapp have access to camera.
Does anybody have to deal with these and had solved it?
Thank for any help.
update: i em on miui12.0.5 ,i installed google play services 20.50.66 , play store 23.9.35-21 and framework10-57771379. Now things work notifications come, maybe with little delay but they come on messenger apps and emails.

Hi there. I am wondering if you were able to remove Breeno feed and browser. I am thinking of a CN version Find X3 Pro, as it is almost half price of the global. version. But after a Realme X50 Pro CN, despise the Breeno and other related apps not even being able to disable them. Thanks.

Yeah I've done this on the chinese ROM, can't remember exactly what i did remove (it wasn't exactly that list), I used an app called 'Package Names' from the Play Store to help identify which ones I wanted to remove.
It is a bit risky so I targeted the Breeno voice stuff and apps that I knew wouldn't be system critical, has been a success.
Google assistant now working. Also google feed now comes up instead of the breeno feed thing.
Nearly feels like a european ROM, my only remaining niggle is how to get location tracking turned back on for google maps timeline.

Yes same here as well. DId you manage to get the google feed to display English instead of straight Chinese characters as well?
As a bit of information, IDK if you've played around with defaults aswell:
I have been trying to get past the default app limits arbitrarily placed in the OS. I followed similar instructions to above to get a working SMS app other than the stock Messages. For me personally, I enjoy using Textra.
First I backed up the stock messages app and then removed it via the method above. Then I reinstalled it. Next I deleted Textra and then reinstalled it as well. I set Textra to default in the Textra app itself. Finally I removed Messages. I can message in Textra, but every time I receive a message the entire system has a hint box that appears that suggests to change preferences. It is important to note that the OS does not recognize Textra as the default, but it functions as one since the default is removed temporarily.

I think this is a sytem app,
So as to remove it ,you need root previlage ,
AS the twrp for realmex50pro is not availabe,you need to do this,
extract your bl of your current rom,
install magisk ,use magisk to patch the bl
boot to fastboot mode,flash the magisk patched bl,
boot to system,and complete the magisk install,
In magisk,set adb root previlage,
In adb command,type su,
then you type the correspondence delete command,
This time,Things will be done
Anyway,extract the bl of the current rom may be the most difficult task.
Try this website,I got it from another post,

Can I Flash Gapps over HydrogenOS to Replace the Chinese Incomplete GMS to Pure GMS?

HydrogenOS already have Google Play Services & Google Services Framework in it, but it's a modified version, you just need to install Play Store apk and you can install all app with play store, without unlock bootloader and root. If you root, use magisk hide, you can also download like Netflix with Play Store.
It can nearly fit all your needs, but there are many other problems, mainly about Google features and sometimes network error, because China bans access to Google. All the problems arise when used in China. Whether there are such problems in other countries remains to be confirmed.
The Play Store can't auto update itself
The Play Store open or update app with a forever loading
You can't allow Google Location History
You can't Use Google Map Timeline
Your device can't display on web Google Play
You can't use Google Feed
You can't use "OK Google"
Some apps that rely on Google services sometimes experience network connection errors
......
The HydrogenOS Google Play market will connect to the domain name services.googleapis.cn, which cannot be opened, controlled by the /system/etc/permissions/services.cn.google.xml file (root is required to access
There is a line in the file, <feature name="cn.google.services" />
Someone made Magisk module Unlock CN GMS to solve this problem, by deleting or replacing this file, but it is still not perfect, there will still be a problem of network connection error. Another Magisk module can also help, Location Report Enabler.
You may ask, why not use OxygenOS?
Because in China, HydrogenOS have some useful localization features
Call Recording
NFC bus card
Call attribution
Harassment call interception
......
So, Can i flash GApps package to turn the built-in incomplete Google service into a full version?
Will this affect my subsequent system upgrades? I will upgrade through the full OTA package every time.
Do I need to flash the Gapps package again after each system upgrade?
This way is, use H2OS, import some OOS feature, only needed is pure Gapps.
_______________
There is an opposite way.
Use OOS, import some H2OS feature, the most needed is call recording, see this thread.
But if you are Cyberpunk edition, HydrogenOS is the best.
_______________
I don't find any solutions now, the TWRP is not out, so we can't flash Gapps, totally we have 3 ways to try with h2os.
1. Replace the h2os GMS to oos GMS, very difficult, don't know to replace what, may cause crash.
2. When TWRP comes out, flash Gapps, like Open Gapps, FlameGapps, may cause crash.
3. Use Magisk Gapps, like Weeb Gapps, may cause crash. This thread talked about this.
We discussed this in many places, all advice that don't try the 3 ways, because may cause crash, for a normal user, crash means you may face boot loop or lose data, and have to factory reset.
Still waiting for an expert guy good at flash phones to give a clear way.
Dude. We don't have a TWRP yet. So you can't flash gapps zips. The simplest and the best way would be to download the EU/IN full rom zip, do a local upgrade, then format the data. Your phone will have full GMS and will get updates for the OOS variant you flashed (EU/IN).

Thanks, i know what you mean
But as mentioned in the question, I still need to use some of the characteristics of Hydrogen OS, so I can’t directly change to Oxygen OS.
If 8T TWRP comes out, is the solution I mentioned above feasible?

Same problem here from China. Could install play store,but cantbconnect to my google account. can't install google play services or google services framework, not sure if its because they're the wrong version apks or because hydrogen now comes with a hard blocking on those.
It really sucks because on my 5t I didn't have to, hydrogen allowed google services too provided you use a VPN.
Let me know if you find a solution ! I also would rather not try to flash another is and lost warranty..

I was successfully able to install services framework. play services already exists so need for that. although play store show that the device is certified yet i am unable to install netflix. this is the only issue so far
Guys, flash oxygen os zip that is higher than an older h2os base. Then install it again with local upgrade, then use the msm h2os tool, that puts it only on one slot. Then, install 11.4.5 ota zip, it reboots to opposite slot and that is the slot oos will be on. Should be oos with the Chinese apps but difference is google installed. I do the opposite to run my normal 8t cyberpunk as oos

r u sure? u say u run oos but have all chinese apps, such as the dialer is not google dialer and can use call recording...if so, i think u do the opposite way is better.
It is convenient for you to describe your operation steps in detail, like how to flash oos, what's your oos country version, etc. It is still not clear from the above reply. I think this will help many people, including the problem that OOS can’t use call recording. I am not very good at flashing the phone.
Do these operations do not need to unlock root, can OTA work normally afterwards, and the chinese apps still there, or can normally update these apps?
In addition, can the normal 8T also use all the features of the cyberpunk version?
thks!

What I have done is not for inexperienced users. I am in USA, bought the global 8t. I said the phone is converted so that's why I have oos dialer and apps. Chinese apps I have uninstalled. But I also have Google apps. You can also use Weeb Magisk Gapps or micro G. Both work.

ok, get it.
So, for me, base on h2os with pure Gapps is the only way, until now many guys say that don't flash Gapps directly on h2os, may cause crash, you provide a new magisk Gapps way, thks.
You use normal 8t with full cyberpunk features, right? It's a goods news for all.

Controlled by the /system/etc/permissions/services.cn.google.xml file (root is required to access
There is a line in the file, <feature name="cn.google.services" />
Someone made Magisk package Unlock CN GMS to solve this problem, by deleting or replacing this file, but it is still not perfect, there will still be a problem of network connection error
You may ask, why not use OxygenOS?
Because in China, HydrogenOS have some useful localization features
Call Recording
NFC bus card
Call attribution
Harassment call interception
......
So, Can i flash GApps package to turn the built-in incomplete Google service into a full version?
Will this affect my subsequent system upgrades? I will upgrade through the full package every time
Or do I need to flash the Gapps package again after each upgrade?

In addition, google and it's associated apps are blocked in china. Facebook, instagram, YouTube, twitter are also blocked.
When and before I go to china, I make good and sure my VPN on my phone is updated.

Guys, flash oxygen os zip that is higher than an older h2os base. Then install it again with local upgrade, then use the msm h2os tool, that puts it only on one slot. Then, install 11.4.5 ota zip, it reboots to opposite slot and that is the slot oos will be on. Should be oos with the Chinese apps but difference is google installed. I do the opposite to run my normal 8t cyberpunk as oos

ok, get it.
So, for me, base on h2os with pure Gapps is the only way, until now many guys say that don't flash Gapps directly on h2os, may cause crash, you provide a new magisk Gapps way, thks.
You use normal 8t with full cyberpunk features, right? It's a goods news for all.

Same problem here from China. Could install play store,but cantbconnect to my google account. can't install google play services or google services framework, not sure if its because they're the wrong version apks or because hydrogen now comes with a hard blocking on those.
It really sucks because on my 5t I didn't have to, hydrogen allowed google services too provided you use a VPN.
Let me know if you find a solution ! I also would rather not try to flash another is and lost warranty..

As i know, HydrogenOS already have google play services & google services framework in it, you just need to install play store and you can install app with play store, it can fit your basic needs, but as my thread said, there are many other problems, because the Hydrogen GMS is not the same as OxygenOS.
After all I managed to update from the original hydrogen on my Chinese model directly to a european oxygen quite easily.
I downloaded the full rom EU version here: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8t-oxygenos-11-0-4-5-update/amp/
Then moved the downloaded zip file at the root of the phone's internal storage. Entered the phone settings, system, system updates then hit the settings icon displayed in top corner to reach local update.
The downloaded rom shows up here as an update.
Quite easy procedure, no problem accessing play store and adding a Google account after that, provided you already have a VPN app to bypass the usual blocking in China.

Can you explain what the point of the 2nd part is? What is the msm h2oos tool?
I suppose it's about two partitions in the phone storage, but is that something already there by default?

I noticed a few Chinese apps have disappeared such as the default web browser or the one plus market app. I managed to reinstall market through an apk site, didn't get to use the nfc card app you're talking about though. But I think you can always use alipay or we chat for bus payments. Or maybe that nfc app can also be reinstalled from a Chinese app store?

Yes. I downloaded it from here http://m.2265.com/down/5615.html
By the way I do have the "card package" app installed since upgrading to oxygen, is that the same app you were using on hydrogen?
