I just received the S5 as a present as my nexus 4 has been busted.
The phone was bought in China and the android version on here is garbage, well, I should say its ANTI-GOOGLE. Seriously. I have tried to install gmail and the play store, both are blocked (among others) I have read that apparently its part of the design to not allow Google access or products. (as a nexus user since nexus 1, google is a big part of my "cell phone life")
Simply, I am wondering if I can erase my current android version and put on a custom rom or another android that is not chinese based. I have looked on a few of the forums here and most roms either don't know if they support my version or if it is possible.
Any help would be great. (I haven't rooted my phone yet but I have no issue doing it)
Model number
SM-G9006V
Android version
4.4.2
Baseband version
G9006VZNU1ANF1
Kernal Version
3.4.0-1716152
Also received this device as a present.
And now I want the same thing, install custom rom or another android that is not chinese based. Because even in English language in every app some text in Chinese and it's not good.
I tried root my phone by using this manual, but it didn't work and I have a message: "This phone isn't currently supported".
This is a new model, that most here won't have any direct experience with. Not to mention you that you are asking about a Chinese language device in an English forum.
There is an existing support thread for this varient with details on a working root. That would be the most productive place to obtain details about alternative ROMs and so forth. It won't be hard to find the thread if you search for it.
.
So yesterday, i made the biggest mistake of buying a Galaxy Edge + (SM-G9280) from China, which of course does not have Google Services and Google Apps (didn't know before i bought it),. Even when i tried to Create my Google Account from Settings, to Sync my Calendar and Contact, Google Account was not there.
Now i searched around and Downloaded Gapps 5.1.1, but when i tried to install Google Services Framework it said "App Not Installed".
Now I am not the tech guru, and haven't played with phones before, and the phone really worth nothing to me without the google services.
Can anyone Pleaseeeeeeee help me fix this?
Thanks guys!!
Sorry but you might have purchased a fake, can you post a screenshot of your About screen (Settings > About device)

Edge plus don't have clone yet. Chinese version are very different for the restrictions of that country, maybe rooting but is not to much info for that model.
It is not a fake phone, in fact i purchased it from Samsung Store in Beijing. Rooting is not a solution here, i think chinese websites have talked about this, but unfortunately, i know no chinese.
Still waiting for your kind support.
What is phone model?
Did you try to flash another firmware for the same but model different country?

Hello,
I own a Huawei Honor 5x (KIW-AL10) and it seems to be the chinese version.
The problem is i cannot sync contacts or get google apps by default. It's really annoying. Plus some chinese words here and there, even if the language is set to english.
My question is : how safe would be flashing a stock ROM, but for a different version of the phone (USA, Europe).
Has anyone did this before ? And if so, what ROM and where to download it from ? I would like to receive Marshallow update too.
Thank you
Hi Sir, you can install any version of the stoock rom just be sure that your model is same otherwise it will not install. And you can install Europe one because MM is recieved by the Europe CSC phones
The LTE bands seem to be fine. I live in Romania and i get 4G. My only issue with the phone is the ROM and all Google features i cannot get. For example, i cant use contacts from my Google account.
Im looking for a solutions to be able to install an international version of software and not to brick my phone. By the way, my phone has 3GB of RAM.
Hello and thank you for your input.
The thing that buggs me right now is that i cannot use google contacts.
I've downloaded Play Store from Huawei thingy presinstalled on the phone and worked my way from there.
Google App, Gmail are up to date.
Problem is that "sync contacts" will not appear on Accounts > Google. I have given all permisions to Google app.
I need to find a way to switch to an European / Worldwide ROM. I am willing to pay for someone's time helping me.
I do love this phone and what it offers and i would like MM update too.
I've done some research and it seems that is possible to change the region code. After that its ok to flash the ROM from that specific region.
However, i dont have any experience regarding this process. Can someone assist me via skype ? I will pay, of course !
Noone did this before ?
(did a search as well as checked the recommended threads before posting)
As the title states, I have just picked up a Verizon Galaxy S5 that was unlocked and have my son's tmobile sim in and working currently, and with the proper APN info also)
It is currently on Android 4.4.4 and I would like to update it to the most recent available software. My questions are:
-What carrier's software do i install? VZW? When i hooked it up to the pc i let it install the proper USB drivers, and it has said there was software available(it was unable to connect doing it OTA)
-Is the software it found Marshmallow 6?
-Will updating through the VZW app on my pc erase any of the settings that are already there? The unlock, APN, Apps, etc?
I bought this for my son who has killed 3 Iphones in that many years and his main concern is that he has Snapchat
I was able to find an older version that works on this phone as the most recent says it will not and he can't get it from Google Play, I dl'ed an old apk from somewhere online and got that up and running.
Any advice or pointing me in the proper direction would be greatly appreciated. I'm just coming back here after years away since i don't deal with HTC or Windows phones any more
Thanks Again!!
hi..
i just bought a new 950F s8 phone as the first thing i see is "there's an internal problem with your device"
on top of that my keyboard cover doesn't seem to be detected .
i also can't do an OTA as i'm getting "your current software version isn't supported"
i had a look around i think all these might be related to the rom, it's PIE.
the build number starts with PPR.180610.011.G950FXXU3DSC7 and ends with DSC7
so is it possible my rom isn't compatible with my country? (it's actually purchased locally)
can i install a new rom from pie 9 that will match?
is it possible that i could remain unrooted so i could play ingress (which detects rooted devices)
