Hello dear community.
I own a huawei ascend mate 2 L01 (the chinese version..)
Sadly it seems substantially different from the L03 which is the only one that appears to be supported hear and in the western part of the internet in general...
I'd like to try custom roms and upgrade my android os version in particular. Atm im still stuck on kitkat.
So does anyone have any tips about where to search for this one? Perhaps in chinese forums? Assuming that google can handle automatic translation from chinese, may anyone direct me to a good place to start looking on chinese forums? I tried google but with no success. thanks!

Greetings everyone, before I made this very first post on the forum I can assure that I used the search option. So this is my little problem. A friend of mine just bought a phone made in China with Android OS (sounds pretty stupid to me). The problem is that the menu contains several sections where the english language is not available, but only chinese.
The most important thing I would like to know is what softwares should I use to upgrade the phone to a better version with full English menu, it would be nice to have Romanian language too but the main issue is to get rid of the chinese thing. The phone is using Android 2.3.6, if anyone could help I could provide all the information about the software versions of the phone. Also I can post a picture or the phone name if this helps with something. Many thanks!
Hi The phone make and model would definitely help. I'm sure you can't be the only person that would need english on that device!
What's the name of the cell....and intalling a new custom rom will solve your problem
Using XDA premium through A5
Press thanks on help
MCT 666 is the name of the phone. Another phone that he just bought is a Daxian XY 100. To be honest I've never heard of them before.
Search for their custom rom
Using XDA premium through A5
Well I did but I couldn't find anything so this is why I'm asking for help. Would Cyanogen help me with this matter?
Hi,
I recently found a tutorial on a chinese board about how to dual-boot Nubia Z7 Max, but I can't understand it since it's Chinese... Even Google translate is giving me bad translation, and I don't want to mess with my device. Here's the thread I've seen there: http://www.tdbeta.cn/thread-187418-1-3.html
Does anyone who can speak Chinese help me with that? Have you ever done this?
Could be nice to try some roms without messing with my CM12. Thank you!

I'm waiting for this tutorial too! Hope there's something to do! :/
You aren't likely to find your answer on XDA. There is no free method for unlocking the bootloader on Huawei phones (which might not be an issue on the Chinese version). There also is no simple way to manually flash firmware on Huawei phones because they don't want owners (or unscrupulous Chinese merchants) to modify the software.
You would probably need to rebrand your phone to run the international ROM on it and I don't know if rebranding is even possible on this phone--it wasn't on the P20 Pro.
You might want to contact Funky Huawei. It's not a free service but they might at least be able to tell you if running the global ROM on the Chinese hardware phone is possible.
If that isn't an option somebody said there was an unnoficial build of LOS for the M20P. You might be able to flash that which wouldn't be an ideal solution but it would give you access to most Google apps.
Only issue so far is WiFi calling missing on my Chinese version, Google map timeline can't working properly.
I can use okay Google, Google feeds etc...after deleted some related Chinese softwares.

Hi everyone,
I've been looking around Google for some way to change the Android version on my Mate 20 Pro from the Vodafone (UK) version that it originally shipped with, to a completely stock Huawei UK version. Mainly to stop the constant want of bloatware app updates that Vodafon want to push to me despite the phone being unlocked and not on Voadfone anymore.
I've followed some directions huaweiadvices(dot)com, and I belive I got the correct firmware download from FirmwareFinder (I can't post links, but will PM them to anyone who can help). None of the methods shown in the above article worked for me, in anyway. I'm either getting a "file not found message" or it just not doing anything at all.
The version I'm on is EMUI 10.0.0.196(C432E7R1P5). I've got a Drive link that I will share that's got screengrabs from the phone with details.
This is the first time I've tried to flash a phone, I'm completely lost and need some help; so if this is on the completly wrong board or has been asked before, I apologise. If anyone can point me in the direction I need to go, or let me know if its even possible, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks
Hello,
just got this box and i'm really impressed.
Just wondering if it's possible to install android 10 on this box. If not what other customs roms people that have this box use?
Thanks in advance!
I have the same question.
Official support told me that "Amlogic S905x2 is not compatible with newer Android", which is a technical bull**** wrong answer.
If someone here has info, please let us know !
