Already signed up. When the beta will roll out? And how I know if I'm selected?
If you meet the criteria, i.e build number, model number, country etc and you are picked from the list you will get the OTA and also an email invite to the community.

Are A2017(Chinese) , A2017U(US) and A2017G(Global) three different device model numbers (hardware wise)?
OR
Are they three different firmware numbers that can be flashed on same hardware device?
They are different devices for different regions
And with the locked bootloader they aren't able to be flashed to different region.
Each have different bands for phone too...

Thank you for the quick response.
So I presume the A2017G global firmware cannot be flashed on c Hines model A2017.
I am planning to buy the chinese model A2017 for use in Singapore. I Have verified that it does support the LTE network bands used by Singapore telcos. The seller on aliexpress confirmed that it will work in singapore and has English language and all Google apps
Would that be a wise thing to do or should I buy the global device model A2017G?
Would you happen to know out of A2017 and A2017G, which model has better
Dev support on xda? (From the perspective of rooting, unlocking, AOSP Roms etc)

Both.
Hardware-wise, the three models are banded differently, and support different cellular connections. For example, the US and China models have CDMA support, while the Global model is not banded for CDMA. The three models have differing LTE bands as well (US model tailored to LTE bands used in North America, Global model tailored to bands used in Europe/Asia, etc).
Software-wise, they're pretty similar, but there are some differences. For example, the Global model has lowered audio output (compared to US model) potentially due to EU regulations. On the flip-side, the Global model has a special menu option for "Glove Mode", to make the phone easier to use when you're wearing gloves, which is omitted from the US model. The US model has an included theme called "Stock Android", which is missing from the China and Global models. The China model does not come with Google Play services by default, because China.
Support-wise, ZTE USA has a community forum that employees participate in to answer questions and whatnot, as does ZTE China. ZTE Europe, however, does not seem to, and can only be contacted via phone/email.
Someone here on XDA was able to flash the Global model's ROM on a US model, but had to specifically flash the US model's modem in order to get cellular working. However, it might have been because the US model can be bootloader unlocked, so the US model can be flashed with other ROMs. The Global and China models don't have official bootloader unlock yet (I'm not entirely sure if the unofficial method posted here on XDA works on the Global and China models)
Thank you for the detailed response. Much appreciated.
Does anyone has any pictures with that stock Android theme?

Search for Axon 7 reviews on Youtube. Any review that shows a white Android app drawer icon in the middle of the nav bar is a US unit using the Stock Android theme.
Damn I'd love that stock interface. Now I'm running Pixel Launcher.

From Zte.
I've got a nxt al10 mate 8 coming (first android) what are the benefits of flashing it. Also what's the choice version to flash it to comsindering mine is 64gb in Australia (3G,4g and lte networks) and I'll be using the dual sim function.
Cheers
As far as i know al10 has chinese firmware without google services and play store. So that's why you need to flash it to international firmware l29.
well, either that or u can install the google services manually good thing about chinese firmware is it gets frequent updates whereas L29 users are somewhat left behind...
Sent from my Huawei Mate 8 NXT-AL10
What about English for some of the Huawei proprietary voice control stuff?? Is all in Chinese on the AL10....is it good enough and in English on L29 to possibly be handy??
If flashing a different version ,lets say l29 to al10, will unlock some of the lte bands?
unlock LTE bands? theres just one band difference betweem the two they both have the same number of bands, just that one differs...

Hello,
what is the difference between X720 and X727 ? Is the hardware the same ?
720 international, can be 4gb or 6gb ram, bootloader unlockable
727 usa version, only 4gb ram, locked bootloader, additional frequency band for US.
Rest of the hardware same, AFAIK

Yeah just received the 727 and the bootloader is locked. That really sucks

LTE Bands 1/2/3/4/5/7/8/12/17/29/30/38
720 is also a dual sim phone
Somekne knows the lte bands of X720?. In some websites it says it has 1/3/7 and in others 1/2/3/4/5/7/8. Which one i believe?
FDD-LTE: B1/2/3/4/5/7/8/20
TDD-LTE:38/39/40/41
WCDMA: B1/2/4/5/8 TD-SCDMA: B34/39; EVDO:BC0/BC1
GSM：2/3/5/8; CDMA: BC0/BC1
from cn lemall ,it should be x720
Baseband is suspected to be the same for both models. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/help/x727-baseband-t3508884#post69837688
X722 - No NFC, Snapdragon S820
I just bought Le Pro 3 Elite (x722) for only $191
https://m.joybuy.com/ware/detail/2099074
It is a new product, first phones came out just two months ago. It is still on EUI 5.8 020s but the price/features/name is unbeatable
Wow great price, does it have English?

Can you root it or change the ROM? There's no information about this device currently.
I didn't try root and there is no support for it. But I don't mind after playing with over 50 china phones and flashing roms on them and releasing adjusted china roms on Modaco forum and elsewhere.
The only software I have found by now is a generic unbrick rom:
http://forum.telekineza.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1353#p39774
Google apps can be easily installed through Google Installer v2 apk

I don't care if you can't root as long as you can change the rom or debloat this, but seems like there's NOTHING on xda, not a single tool or rom for it, that's why.
P.S. Also debloater is not working for X727 as far as I know, so you have to stick with the chinese bloat, and just use nova launcher.
You can debloat most of the China stuff in EUI, like:
- Turn off that video service screen on the left of Home screen
- Settings, app management, Installed apps - Uninstall
- Phone manager, App warehouse, Disable
- You can disable notifications for some apps, like calendar
It isn't a proper debloating but it moves china apps from the sight.
Well, good news for x722 owners.
There is an update to EUI 5.9 v 026s showing in my phone this morning
@dakok Let us know how it works... apparently nobody owns it so for now it does not have any community support. I don't know if it comes with gapps, but I think it's now on EUI 26s.
Still wodering, have they released Nougat beta for the US / Unlocked s7 editions? I have seen theres updates for the G935F/FD 's (exynos) getting the nougat updates, but no sign of it on the G935U/T/A/S 's (snapdragon) ones. Have they released the nougat only for the exynos edition? or for snapdragon too? If theres no beta for the snapdragon, are dirictly going to release the final for them? Please clarify me anyone..
They have released for carrier versions, search the respective forums for update zips. But not for unlocked version.

I've got it on my US Sprint S7e. Go to the Samsung Apps and download the Samsung Galaxy Beta Program app. Once you do so, when you update you will get the option to install 7.0 in your System Updates.
