There seem to be a few variant of the ROM depending on the region. Major difference base on what everyone is saying there is that the Chinese rom is horrible and the global/UK rom is better.
Well I have a OPX China version coming this week. It was a decent deal that why i went for it instead of the other version. So how screwed am I?
Is the China version really crippled? Is there a way to at least make it similar to the global rom? I know google play need to be installed and some app needs colorOS apps need to be removed.
How about notification and ram management? And major difference compare to the global ROM? Thanks for any feed back.
People complained about not being able to add a custom launcher. But you could always use adb to remove the coloros launcher to force the device to use the custom launcher. Also, all global variants are exactly the same, there really is no distinction between them.
My GF is using chinese edition and I am using AU edition, and both of us are in US, so I think I am able to tell you something.
Chinese edition is really for China(I am a Chinese so I know it). It will be perfect in China, but a disaster anywhere else in the world. You can always install google play in the original store and also uninstall some stock software and replace the launcher with adb. But three things are hard to change:
1. The background task is limited to 5.
2. Only the white listed app can auto start, other than the app in the list, only 5 are allowed.
3. G assistant can't work well, and G feed for Nova launcher as well. You will never be able to use ok google or hey google.
And for global version. The background management is worse than what I did with Brevent. And there is no great animation when you do super vooc charge. Other things are perfect.
Oppo is working on allowing bl unlock and Wuxianlin bet her own weibo account for it, so you will be able to flash global version soon.
Thank you for the great input!
I guess the China version is really crippled
Can you change the texting app to 3rd party and/mms like textra?
Whats the point of the 8gig of ram if they won't utilize it.

I keep thinking that if someone can find the variant identifiers in the roms we can make the phone think the international or eu rom is the Chinese one and spoof it into allowing it to install.

Thanks for that very useful. If I may ask couple of questions.
Can you please confirm global version doesn’t restrict notifications? You receive notifications as any other Android phone.
Can you get notifications on lock screen?
Default launcher is easy to change

That’s a relief as the whole reason me for getting rid of the Chinese version and buying the global version was due to the terrible restrictions .

Hi everyone,
I got a Dutch Oppo Find X 256GB last friday.
Strangely, there is no theme store available, but when i browse through the system apps, it does show Theme store. Although I can't open it(see screenshot) Does anyone else have this? any solution to downloading/changing themes? I also have no Oppo store, but if i switch region to India for example, i suddenly have the oppo store, but still no theme store.
Also, some have these Iphone X style gesture navigation, but I don't even have that option? Maybe no EU versions have this duo legislation? (see screenshot) Does anyone know how to get it? There are apps but those use accesability service and Oppo decided to make your statusbar orange if you do..:/
Also attached a general screenshot of about phone for the version numbers.
p.s. things like oppo cloud are also unavailable but I didn't intent on using that anyway.

Hi there,
Answering to your question about the theme store:
Am not sure what has happened, but here in Indonesia, that kind of thing happened because we tried to install another theme store apk that isn't compatible with the phone version... The theme store icon on the homescreen somehow dissappear, but the app is still there when you look for it on the system app list...
And we have a solution for this, which are:
Install these apps based on the number
(link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hABakrDiUwl_oJhYpjHi3bKKrR-9rHIR/view?usp=drivesdk), and when you get to number 4, clear data of the theme store, and reboot the phone...
Hopefully these steps works on yours.
For the navigation gesture, am not sure what happened there but I think the last solution for your issues is to go to Oppo Service Center and have them flash your phone...
This will solve both the theme store app and nav gesture issue...
Or you can try to reset your phone to its factory state and see...
Where did you buy it?

Thanks for the reply,
As for the google drive link.. it says google doesn't allow acces to the file due to it not being compliant with their service policy.
As for the flashing.. The thing is there's no Oppo service center nearby, and I don't know if swipe up gestures and such are supported on the EU variants.. as it seems to be left out deliberately.. (Maybe Apple has patented it?) Factory resetting didn't change anything unfortunately.

Another link would be nice, i'd like to see if I can get a way to acces Oppo find X themes, as the regular play store doesn't seem to hold any.
Yea I tried that xda dev app, which works but it requires the accesabiltiy service. On normal phones no problem but Oppo insist on making your statusbar flash orange if you use either accesability service or developer options.. pretty stupid, I know. But I haven't found a way around it.

Thanks for the link, apk 1 and 3 give a 'not installed' error. 2 and 4 work.
and it does change something, now i have a 'downloaded themes' section in 'set theme' where before was only the 'system themes'.
However I have no acces to a theme store. Clearing theme store data and rebooting didn't help, neither did uninstalling updates to the theme store and rebooting...

Wow... Drop an email to Oppo CS, see what they say...
This method usually works for us...
There so many version of these...
So which is the best version to get?
I know the china version is not preferred.
Which version comes with the supervooc charger?
Which version has play store built in and has gesture enable?

Yep indeed,
Mine does have supervooc btw(atleast according to the charger and cable), which I find weird since it's not the lambo version and thus only has 1 battery oppose to the two of the lambo.
but no iphone style gestures.. I'm gonna see if I can find a way to get in touch with Oppo
Most annoying is the no theme store, now there's basically no way to ever change themes. (since andromeda+substratum isnt working either)
anyone with the India or the France version can chime in and let us know if they have gesture and supervooc?
I have EU version from france.
I confirm that this version has super vooc and no themes app and gestures.
It seems that is a software related. It must be some reason why oppo removed gestures from settings.

I have India version. It has swipe gestures but not super vooc. I am now confused...is super vooc software or hardware related?
Ok this is super confusing!! Why so many variant??
So far there's:
China version - 128gb, no Google app built in, regular vooc charger. Gesture enabled. Can't change launcher.
Indian version: 256gb. Google app built in. Regular vooc charger. Gesture enabled
UK version: 256gb. Google app built in. Supervooc charger. No gesture.
Lamborghini version - ???? Anyone who have this??
Oppo said that some regions will have super vooc.. EU variants support super vooc. As far as swipe gestures this is sofrware related not hardware. For some reason oppo did this. Maybe oppo removed this fuction for better battery optimizations as super vooc models have smaller battery 3400.
After reading this thread, I think I may buy the cheap Chinese version with play store installed.
Wouldn't the India version be the better version?
Gesture and bigger battery?
Can you just buy the supervooc charger separately?
Can anyone confirm that the UK version has the smaller 3400ma battery?
I'm trying to decide what to buy. And this is all kind of confusing.

China: right as you wrote but no google play ( esasy to install). Just few languages. Battery 3730 mha vooc and gesture. I have this one
Indian: right as you wrote. Google play inside. Global languages. Battery 3730 mha vooc and gesture.
European: it's uk too. Right as you wrote. Google play inside. Global languages. 3400mha supervooc but no gestures.
Lamborghini: same as EU version but more expensive (more beautiful and a lot of stuffs inside the box)
That's all
Supervooc is hardware so you can't have it just with the charger
Hi everybody,
seems like that since the beginning of September various e-shops have had availability of a Global Black Shark.
Judging from various unboxing/review videos the main difference seems to be that the Global Black Shark uses a stock-ish Android Oreo with preinstalled Play Services, but this ROM doesn't seem to exists on any site.
Does anybody know something more about that?
I think it would be cool to have an official global ROM.
I purchased mine 4 days ago here, I'm somewhere from Asia.
Yes it comes with Stock Android ROM. Although this looks the way it should be presented to the world, I think I prefer the China ROM's JoyUI due to the features I liked from Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x.
It is similar to MIUI and somehow I regret getting the global verson.

does this ROM has the shark space?
do you have the special settings for game mode like HDR and the controller settings etc?
also the china version blackshark got some update that lets you configure the led on the backside logo but its all in chinease even if you pick the ui language to be english, does this exist on global rom?

I have the global one as well and its kind of like lineage OS + the shark space , or the way android looks on a google pixel phone + shark space with all the options to configure the gamepad , extreme mode , etc.
Other than that there is no sign of any other joyui features like screen recording and the other stuff with the led customization.
It only says JoyUi when you go to check for updates even though its not
Doesnt come with any bloat-ware either at all.
Out of the box it had about 15~ apps installed which were most google apps , and it has the play store by default.
To be honest i prefer the the more simple global rom because i read on the official chinese forums on the joyui version that there are some stability issues with the software where it sometimes reboots randomly on its own which kinda sucks if its true.
Dont have any screenshots as there is no need since it looks like stock androind.
If you wanna see the ui check out the unbox therapy video where you can kind of see what it looks like.

i see, well i got the Chinese version since june, i can't deny an occasional force reboot happens but its very rare like once in 2 weeks, and its much better with the recent updates, it was a bigger problem before android 8.1 update arrived, now its negligble.
i also had some issues with google services and facebook force closing in the first FW version but that was also fixed now, im very happy with the phone RN, joyui is also very clean and has no bloatware at all, except xiaomi standard apps like the market and gallery app file manager etc which i like since i had xiaomi mi6 before.
overall its great though, battery life is amazing partly due to the big battery of the phone but i think joyui + xiaomi background managment is doing really good work, when im not playing it can easely last 2.5 days of causal use with around 8 hours of SOT. with hibarnate disabled so i get notifications on whatsapp etc.
there is only one thing that really bothers me i wonder if global version is the same, when im taking a video with the camera, the auto focus always goes nuts and keeps trying to refocus and never does, didn't have this issue with any other xiaomi phone before and its the same camera app. i end up using manuel focus for taking videos which is anoying at times when u try to move the camera around focus gets lost.
I have a chinese Black Shark and it's really great except for the fact that the play store is not built in.
You can add it via various tools but it not being a System app brings some compatibility issues such as Android Auto not connecting properly to the phone (logcat says it misses som authorizations).
It also have some problems with the download manager (Play Store sometimes needs a clear data to start download apps again) and with notifications

Black shark 2 variation
I just notice the the Model ada diffrent
For the china is SKR-A0
While the global is SKR-H0
Is there alot of diffrent?
I think that until the last update, the Global one was too a SKR-A0.
With the last update the name of the model was changed to fit with the "Helo" name of the new model, thus the "H" instead of the "A".

Hey! I'm looking into getting the Oppo Find X. I live on the UK and I realise that I can get it in Europe in France or something but it is €999 which is around £880. I did some digging and found I can import the Australian version because it's cheaper and is around £700. (Note I can only afford around £700 so please don't say just to import it from France anyway).
I would like to know if the Oppo Find X Australian version is basically the international version and if it comes with the following things...
1. Google Play Services
2. Ability to change launcher
3. If the Australian version is missing any features the Europe version has.
4. Will I receive notifications
Thank you and hope to get an Oppo Find X soon!
Hello. First, there's no really "international version" of this phone. You have Chinese version, Spanish version, french version, Australian version, etc.
They all are pretty much the same. The only one that is different is the Chinese version.
Regarding your question:
1) Yes
2) Yes
3) Don't think so, cause they are pretty much the same. What you will miss in all version, except Chinese version, is the navigation gestures. Oh, and the oppo change theme store. But if you're planning to use a third party launcher that won't affect you
4) Probably you will have to make some adjustments to get your notifications

Thank you so much! The navigation gestures not being there is kinda annoying but idm haha. Thank you and hopefully I can get the phone soon (going from Note 8)! Big help, thanks!
You're welcome!
I have the Chinese version and it's good. I'm very used to the navigation gestures so not having it in others version is very disappointed, but that's my opinion. And not having Spanish language is not good neither, but I use more locale and is good now.
This phone with stock Android would be the best phone ever.
Probably the worst thing about this phone is the notifications, not just having problem with receiving them, but I hate that they're not show in the status bar. You have to swipe down to see them...very annoying.
I'm using Australian version 128gb with vooc. I have both gestures, and theme store. We also have 256gb Super vooc and Lamborghini. I can't comment on them.
1.I wanted to know wether the chinese version of the phone have any issues with the telecom frequencies of mobile network operators in other regions.Will they work fine ?
2.Plus what are the limitations of software.
3.If i wanna root to get all access os that possible ?

In regards to your first point; You can view the frequencies that are being used by the phone online (I usually use GSM arena or just a google search) and then compare them with your countries bands (also a quick google away). I am Australian and searched on my carriers website and they had a map showing where their coverage was in terms of each band. So I was able to work out that getting the phone would be fine for me for my daily life but when I leave that and go on a day trip or something I can sometimes get 1 bars in some places. (This is regarding my last phone by the way (mate 8))

that's what I used to do.. but I'm too lazy for that now - I just use kimovil
hmm, strangely I can't find the chinese version there.. it does have the chinese mate x 20 though
basically there is no limitation of software , including all the services of Google, Only thing that can not work is Google Maps Timeline, dont know why , it just cant work on the chinese version of phone
but there is a lot of limitation of software on the global version, huawei messaging app, huawei travel assitance, huawei voice assistant, etc
,
Google feed might not be available too.
My worry would be getting a faulty "green" screen and would need to return it, unless the manufacturer honours the warranty regardless where purchased? I had to exchange mine due to faulty lg screen, but it was an over the counter exchange by 3 UK, whom I bought it from. Luckily got a boe screen and it's fine.
google works fine with my chinese m20p..only issue was no no group message from system app, calendar not linking with system app.
HW Chinese model has some notifications delay problem but it get OS update much earlier/faster than international version and call recording feature

you can install google play store from the huawei store included on the phone - at least some people said that, as well I tried to find it on a phone in the huawei (physical) store (in china) and it had play available for install within the huawei app store. I have no idea about google services, I'm sure someone in this thread must have written about it.
