Hisense A2 Pro with the Google Play Services?

The phone sold in China doesn't come with the Google Play Services and there is no way to install it.
However, I saw some Hisense A2 Pro on Aliexpress and their sellers claim that the phone come with the Google Play Services. One of the sellers even told me it comes with multilingual support rather than only Chinese and English.
Has anyone bought one on Aliexpress? Does it really come with Google Play? How is the stability of Google Play? Does this version get regular update as the Chinese version?

You can install Gapps.zip via a custom recovery to get Google applications working. The only restriction is Google's recent move to block Google apps from working on unauthorized devices but you can always whitelist your IMEI

Bought one few weeks ago. Arrived today. Everything working fine with play store. Without tricks. Seems to be a normal working Android phone. You can choose every language you want. I set it to german and delete chinese in the settings. Most is in german now, only a few things are in english anyway. buts no problem. On the e-ink is working everthing, not just apps written for. You can 1:1 flip to e-ink. Bought the smartphone for navigation on bike tours. It's the only navi on this planet with e-ink for use in the sun

where to buy?
hi, I am looking at this phone too, but it seems originally it supported only english and chinese. So probably you have found a shop providing latest version
would you mind sharing the shop you used, if Aliexpress which one vendor exactly?
thanks a lot

I bought it from Hongkong Telling Communication.
It has international support (French, German, etc.) and fully functional GAPPS until now. But it also has two big bugs:
1. Two Playstores. One is working fine, the other is just "there".
2. I cannot get my mobile data working. Phone works, Wifi works, to mobile internet it won't connect.

Just received mine so here are the first impressions. I set language to French, almost everything is translated and good quality translation. Only few things in english like the base clock application, but all parameters in French. Mobile data is working no issue. Google apps working and there is single store.
Eink screen I am a bit disapointed I find the contrast is too low. There are also 2 modes smooth and clear. In clear mode the fonts are indeed better looking but there are 2 issues contrast is even lower, and there are continuous screen flashes to refresh/reset the eink as soon as you scroll the page. Since you scroll often to read on such small pages (on a smartphone screen quantity of text is not big) it is a pain for the eyes. So I use smooth mode which is ok (no flashes) but fonts definition is not very good to say the least. It is my first experience of an eink screen, I will continue the experience a bit, but in the end I find there is chance it is not convenient for me. The issue is the contrast, for dark text on white screen I prefer a high contrast.

Hi. After try flash rom by sd card and show error, reboot and have black screen when connect to the pc appear how a qualcom device for flash with qfill. I don't found any rom for qfill for A2 Pro or A2T or A2 S9. Anybody can help me?

Could you please tell us, where you bought it, so we can get information about how to root the A2 pro correctly.
I bought one at the cect-shop which is not usefull in Germany.

please i would to find a twrp and a custom rom but i sppose it is just a dream. i've just discovered this phone.... sold at onlu 120euro and at this price is incredible but i could not live without a twrp and possibly a custom rom......

Hi, i would like to buy this phone, can anyone give a review? does it work only with chinese apps? or is it truly multilanguage?
Thanks!

Hello guys, I see that some of you got the A2 Pro with multi language and Google apps, please can you share the ROM and a method to flash it?
I bought mine and it came with only English and Chinese, without Google services. I tried every single rooting app/software (to install Google stuff) but no luck. I'm really sad as I can't use the phone without Google apps..
I tried to install them manually as APKs but they don't work.. Unlocking the bootloader didn't work.. Open Gapps need to be installed as system app or by having ROOT access..
Please, I'd appreciate any help!

Finally! I've got a ROM that costed me 100$ from someone in China! Google Services and apps are working! Here you can see some of my screenshots attached. (link didn't work so I attached them as zip file).
Contact me if you are interested, maybe we can share the high cost together

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, but it's not buy unlocking the bootloader, it's a full ROM contains Google apps and services. You flash the whole ROM by putting it on the SD card.

La rom que comentas era la que tenia mi teléfono. No permite actualizar ota, por que no habrá actualizaciones, tiene bug de brillo pantalla automático (no va muy bien).
Instalé rom oficial LA8627E1-Hisense-A2T_L1413.6.08.01.00.zip que tiene actualizaciones con mejoras, pero que no deja instalar play store google. Es por eso que quería cambiar el rocovery para ponerle la aplicaciones google.
El vendedor de Aliexpres no me falicita la rom que comentas tú L1413.6.07.04.GMS. Si fuera gratis te pediría el enlace..

I don't have a bug with screen brightness, it works fine, I just tested it now. For me it doesn't matter if they update the firmware or not in the future. I just want it to work nicely as it is now (working google apps and a working E-ink screen).

Ok. Lo del brilo automatico va (pero podría funcionar mejor). No entiendo que cobren 100$ por la ROM. Me gustaría conseguirla gratis..

I wanted my phone to have Google Apps so badly, I spent days and nights trying every ROOT app even paid remote rooting services, but nothing worked. The firmware is rock solid and impossible to root/unlock. I asked everywhere, called every Hisense support, until someone from Hisense China offered me this. I accepted because I love this phone (for its high speed and of course the E-ink screen).

It'll be great if someone can unlock the bootloader, but I guess it's impossible. Tried every single method. Paid for a remote service 40$ and the technician couldn't do anything.. But who knows, maybe a real hacker can do it.

Teclast T20: Are there custom ROMs and ROOT guides?

Hello everyone! I'm considering to buy this chinese tablet Teclast T20, but before I do so I wanted to check if there were custom roms and/or TWRP/root available for it. So far I have been unsuccesful (at least suing Google)
Does anyone here have it and know this info? Thank you!

nope ?

Well that's exceeding disappointing.... ?

Agg.. I need root to for Teclast T20 too.
I wold like to adjust the display colours with kernel auditor or something like that, because my screen colours are awful with a greeny tint and high saturation, Kingroot doesnt want to work.
I did the procedure showed in Youtube /youtu.be/LDDaP2eY7M4 by Teclast Official, but the ROM available to download from official website is not rooted...
I sent an e-mail to Teclast let see if they answer.
Thanks ...

№709 in the list - Teclast T20. But you can make your own choice or TWRP, or PhilZ recovery on these techniques: Mediatek (MTK) Auto TWRP recovery porter, MTK Auto Philz recovery porter, specifically for revision of iron your tablet (E1 or E2). All actions are very simple and clear. TWRP is controlled only with mouse, PhilZ recovery - using the volume keys and power button.

Here's TWRP 3.3.1 with a working touch, for revision T2E2 and Android 7. Install the latest version of Magisk and you get root access.
p.s.: other versions TWRP be here, but need to register.

NFC does not work

Does someone have problem with NFC?
I'm using MiUI 12.0.4 MI, but I can't scan NFC tags.
Do you think flashing the EU variant or a custom ROm will change anything?

I have Xioami.eu rom and NFC working fine in my banking app, I use it for payment in stores

OK I will have a try as soon I found out how to flash something without Windows on this device…

Just in case you don't know, the NFC sensor is on the back of the camera, not on the back of the battery.

I installed it, but it's definitely not a stable solution. The app won't open unless you call the watch number, and then you can't chat with anyone else but the number who called you!

If it's true, that's why I clarified it well in the post. It is a test and needs to be tested. What we can try is with an older version of WhatsApp. For example Google Assistant Go version 2.8 (Old) works perfect, but the latest version of Google assistant Go 2.9 does not work. So these days I was going to try an older version of WhatsApp to see if it works better. Greetings

So you just side loaded Go 2.8?

I just installed 2.8 (the newer out of the two) from APK mirror. It installed ok, but is not very responsive when you open the app. Set to double pressing the top button to open GA but it doesnt.

Please, before giving your opinion, I respectfully ask you to read or watch the videos, since your opinion is totally wrong. The idea of the tutorial is to use a WhatsApp totally independent of the Smartphone, since you must install and use WhatsApp with a different phone number from the Smartphone. Again, it is a Native WhatsApp, and totally independent from the Smartphone. Please be clear, and if you have any questions before giving an opinion on something totally incorrect, you can consult everything you need that I will gladly answer. best regards Miguel

Thanks mate. I tried it, but in WhatsApp no keyboard/input is showing up. So I am not able to enter a number . But thanks for the tipp

what about a web.whatsapp.com on smartwatch which doesn't send user forced to computer browser ?

Question I have some questions about the TB-J716F

Hello friends, I bought this tablet at the beginning of September and I like it very much, however I have some doubts which are as follows:
According to its specifications, the tablet charges at 20w, but mine goes up to 45w using a 66w multi-phase charger, I do not know if it is correct, I have not made any modifications.
On the other hand, some apps that I need to have them open in the background, are disabled, no matter how much I lock it or disable the battery optimization.

As for the wattage I can't help....
But the background apps closing is just ZUI... It sucks....
I'm thinking about switching to a GSI rom.

No actual major bugs with ZUI. I just don't like and certain things don't always seem to work.

If I find any that are usable I'll let you know

press and hold the security app and it will come up as ram booter option, that way you can enter and disable it.
