Widevine L1 but see as L3 - Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
I didn't use my tablet for 2 years but I launch it yesterday and reset it beause it was very low.
I'm on the last official firmware XEF, android 5.0.1 or 2
When I see on application mycanal (a TV OTT service in France) and the app DRM INFO, I have widevine L1.
But Netflix is in SD and say me I have widevine L3.
Prime Video is also in SD and Disney+ have an error 83 (I see that it only works on L1 device, so it considers me on L3 too).
Well ... I'm a little lost. What can I do ?
Do you (owners of the same tablet) have the same problem with widevine on official firmware ?
Is it possible to solve the issue without flashing a custom rom ?
If not, what custom rom can I choose ?
Thanks a lot.

Netflix in SD

guys, here netflix is showing L3 widevine and with that it supports maximum SD. The device shows L1 in DRM INFO. someone else experiencing the same problem?
Im using last Android 10 January security patch. Bootloader Locked, No Root... ALL STOCK.
That's how it is. Netflix doesn't only require L1, but it also only let's the devices they whitelist to stream HD. Your device is L1 and netflix app is lying about it.
Everything works perfect in the Disney+ app. You'll get beautiful HD and it's clearly using the DRM.

So, good news. I recently installed the a11 update and netflix is now working in HD.
(I updated with the "Rescue and Smart Assistant" tool from lenovo for motorola phones, it offered the 11 update as a rescue image. It wipes the phone but atleast i got it in europe before the schedule)
- it was strange thought that play store didn't want to install netflix or disney+, i had to sideload them from apkmirror.

Widevine L3 to L1

I just downgraded my NFC global from A11 12.5.1 to A10 12.0.9 due to the fact that A11 is buggy and I can't even play with my phone anymore, after successfully downgrading the phone to A10 with the update and rename method I noticed that the widevine certificate is L3 rather than L1 and I can't even watch Netflix because of sd crap. Is there a way to restore the widevine L1 while staying on A10?

Question Restore stock fw + widevine

Hi guys
I just bought my P11 pro from AliExpress with the not so good global ROM and unlocked bootloader. Also, L3 widevine.
Is there a way to put the stock fw back and restore the widevine L1?
Is the stock fw better than the global fw?
Thanks in advance

Thanks! I read it but still got questions.
Is the stock fw fully translated to English?
Re-installing the stock fw will allow for OTA updates?
Is there a downside to the stock fw?
Also, as I can understand, there is no way to restore widevine L1 once the bootloader has been unlocked. Does anyone know anything about that?

English is my native language and the Chinese ROM on this 2021 Pad Pro 11" is actually pretty decent. I have no translation issues. There are a few apps you will want to disable and you will have to manually install the play store but once you’ve done that it works fine. Its fully google certified and Netflix etc shows up in a search. I use Nova Launcher rather than the Lenovo launcher which I would also recommend.
Mine came with the Chinese firmware so I didn’t have to do any messing about and my widevine L1 is intact, I have received x2 OTA’s an I manually flashed to update to ZUI13. I believe other people eventually received those updates via OTA as well.
I’m sure I’ve seen people on the thread who have successfully flashed back to the Chinese ROM, locked bootloader and regained Widevine L1.
I can confirm this.
I recently ordered the P11 Pro from bangood.
This also came with a outdated global ROM and Widevine L3.
After Installing the Chinese ROM with above guide and locking the bootloader I got Widevine L1.
I hope this helps.

That's great! How did you relock the bootloader?
I was able to reinstall the stock fw witch already received OTA update to ZUI 13 (yay!)

I used the script shared by Tropaion in his post on how to unlock/lock the boot loader:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lock-unlock-bootloader-xiaoxin-pad-pro-2021-tb-j716f.4347321/
What is important is that you have to install ADB fast boot and for me I also had to install the lenovo driver shared by zeroflame15 in his reply to the post:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...n-pad-pro-2021-tb-j716f.4347321/post-85850437
When you have all drivers installed all you have to do is run the script and follow the steps.
I hope this helps!
Thank you guys!
I was able to re-lock the bootloader and restore widevine L1
Turns out that even though I have the L1 certification, Netflix , Amazon and Disney will limit the quality of the streaming because it is a portable device. No HDR on Netflix too... Bummer. Still, I managed to install stremio and get the quality I pay for.

That's odd. As you can see in the screenshot attached I do have the option to stream in full HD via Netflix now. You might want to try reinstalling Netflix via the Google play store as this should now also be certified. (At least it is for me) HDR capabilities I am still missing however.

You can get Dolby Vision on the P12 but as you say HD only. Stremio is the way forward. I have kept my subs live for use on the TV but at least we can watch in full quality in bed.

Widevine L3 persists on all roms

Widevine L3 is always their no matter what i've tried (Msm tool, OTA update up to the latest OOS). Perhaps it has something to do with me partions (im on slot A). I also noticed its a widespread problem on multiple brands. Is their a definitive fix to getting back L1 without sending my device to OnePlus?
