We will have to wait first for Asus to release the unlock bootloader App, after that the only way to convert to the WW rom manually is by flashing System.img & Boot.img. But doing all this will void your warranty unless you don't care.
So far i am moving away from relying on Google apps and finding alternatives, i think that's the best way moving forward especially if you are living in china, or you could access your Google services through "gplayspace" app or the web which is also possible and battery friendly.
By the way i have downloaded the WW rom and extracted the System.img to get the Google apps; i was able to flash the framework and ContactsSyn apks but the issue is with the Gmscore.apk(Google play services) you can't install it. I think you need to place it manually to the System folder using TWRP(when it's available for our device) or by flashing System.img or to wait for a proper installer for our device. Which means we are back to square one.
In summary it's still early for this device, but hopefully soon we will get more options.
I also now using the phone without google play services and no problem at all... and 99% of my app runnuing perfectly expet bank related app it doesnt install at all!!!!

Are you saying you manged to flash the WW rom on to your CN rom phone.
If so of course you will not be able to get OTA updates. Please state the steps you took to flash the rom if that is the case.
The only way to get the OTA updates is to go back to the state before the changes you made.

Hi all, I successfully unrooted using this guide here:http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-hacks/how-to-unroot-your-galaxy-tab-10-1/
But my problem is that his "stock" file that I flashed is an I/O Stock rom, so it won't receive any official updates after the first 11mb update. (won't update to 3.2 Touchwiz)
I would like to give this tablet to a family member and I want them t receive official updates (Like ICS) in the future, so I basically need to get my Tablet back to the point where it can receive official updates.
I did a little more digging trying to find a stock rom and found this rom "hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip(StockROM)", from this link --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089 but it appears to be the same file for I/O as before.
I then found this link here, to a European Stock Touchwiz update rom, "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167250" But I'm afraid since its european, it is still not my original stock rom I had for my Tablet I bought in the USA.
Can anyone help?
i have the same problem... but i'm from Malaysia..
although from one of the guide, it says Asian Stock TW, after odin, my device doesnt seem to be recognised by KIES for any official update... also notice that the build number is different from actual Asian version (compared this with my friend's tab)
btw, from samfirmware, the zip file contain 3 files (data, csc and bootloader)..
i only flash the data and csc(as suggested in the guide)... do i need to flash the bootloader too? could that be the reason why i cant get KIES update?
btw, if your from the US, hav u tried the guide from "filesfordummies"?
i think thats the stock US version of the tab...
Do you have a nandroid backup? if you have restore that backup and you have an actually.
Sorry but my english is very bad

Hi, I've recently finished the porting of CM10.1 for XT885. A v1.1 has been roll out days ago.
The code was based on the branch for XT910, with modification for XT885.
All functions have been validated to be working up to now. Maybe some minor bugs there, i'm no so sure. :laugh:
This is my first post, so, i don't have the right to post external link. Please remove all " from the following links and replace all "," with "."
The page for ROM publish is here: (sorry, it's in Chinese, i will translate the most important part later)
"http":"//"gopise,blog,163,com/blog/static/102664522201371053354366/
Download URL for v1.1
"http":"//"pan,baidu,com/share/link?shareid=3637467016&uk=587386395
How to flash it:
1. Make sure you're currently using the official 4.1.2. e.g. "fastboot-p0a_yangtze-umts_yangtze-user-4.1.2-6.7.2_GC-404-303-release-keys-ChinaRetail-CN_chn.tar.gz" in China market.
2. Make sure the device is rooted.
3. Install "BMM-v0.3.4.apk".
I've upload one to the net drive here:
"http":"//"pan,baidu,com/share/link?shareid=1896218284&uk=587386395
4. Install the boot menu by using BMM. You can google for some guide on this. Make sure you can boot into stock ROM after this.
5. Copy the ROM (cm-10.1-20130810-GOPISE-v1.1-umts_yangtze.zip) to the SDCARD.
6. Boot into BMM and jump to "Recovery".
7. Flash the ZIP in BMM.
8. Wipe the /userdata and /cache and reboot.
9. Enjoy!
Known issues:
1. USB seems not so stable.
The source code has also been published on GitHub. You can also find details from my blog: (both Chinese and English this time...)

Great ! Finally !!!
Trying this right now and I'll post my comments !
Update : tried anyway with the AU Release and it reboot in BMM at Booting ...
Will try with the China Firmware
update2 - seems like I can't flash the China Firmware due to the fact that I cannot downgrade from the AU & OTA Update to a lower firmware ...
Anybody got an Idea ?

Did you find any solution? I did the same thing, installed it over AU and cant flash the China firmware. Able to find a fix?
cdma_yangtze compatibility
What if I will flash this on my Motorola Electrify 2 (cdma_yangtze) (4.1.2) ?
Will it work ? And will it be possible to roll back my BMM backup in case of boot problem ?
Hmm, after months of having this it seems like something promising finally started... but it also seems like it's died down. Is there any news on this rom whatsoever? Kinda sad to see something like this just drift away... (Google Translate is a fail at translating the chinese site)

As for that I think it might mess up the radios since you have CDMA Phone while the rest of the world with XT885 has GSM Radios in the phone.
I agree. This thread ignited hope in me that is once again fading. Has anyone successfully installed this ROM that can explain how they went about it? (I'm on latest AU firmware)
Didn't work for me. Totally messed up my phone. Mostly my fault though. I installed it on slot one without a nandroid backup.
Please can you give us the firmware? The chinese 4.1.2 for Razr v xt885
Choose one which suits you:

Please being there but cant download any of them. Can you help fella?

Do you have delays occurred in the case of mobile network LTE model it?
I tried two versions of the ROM. G850YDOU2BOG1 and G850YDOU2BOG4 . Both versions have the status of network delay occurred!
G850YDOU2BOG4 This version is slightly delayed sense improvement, but compared to the next version 4.4.4 or smooth enough!:crying:
When the device is in WIFI environment, network status is very smooth. So I had to give an official version of the ROM
Did you solve this?

我目前已經刷了非官方的rom，版本已經上到了5.1.1，感覺有比5.0.2版來的好用！
但是很多三星內建的功能都消 失了唷！因為那個rom是google的原生版本.........

Thanks for responding. My Chinese is not good enough to fully understand your post. DId you end up installing a custom rom then? Can you tell me which one, and how well it is running? This phone will be used by my wife, and I'd like to avoid bugs if possible. Thanks!

This is Rom I currently use, use without any problems.
In addition to discussing strings mentioned camera and Bluetooth in addition to the use of some BUG ..........
This is the native system infrastructure 5.1.1 version, so there are many user interface with Samsung completely different, I hope your wife can use habits.
Hi!
Before attempting anything I wanted to ask this here:
I have a non-rooted, completely stock Mi Pad 4 bought from Gearbest. It is the international version (Model name: M1806D9W) that came with Google Apps, already with english language, etc. It currently runs MIUI Global 9.6 | Stable 9.6.7.0.0(ODJCNFD) (Android 8.1.0 OPM1.171019.019)
I read online that MIUI 10 should be available for global versions which I think mine is? But yet system updates tell me there are no updates available.
So here's my question: What is the simplest most straightforward way to upgrade to MIUI 10?
I see I can download ROMs from threads here and other places online but I want to make 100% sure of which one should I get.
Bonus question: Any way of backuping everything so I don't have to re-install, reconfigure, re-place my apps icons, etc?
Thanks so much!
pretty sure the international version that your reseller claim is false.. there are no international version now.. they probably loaded an "international modified" rom .. highly recommend you to flash xiaomi EU rom already comes with prebuilt playstore if you ur bootloader is already unlocked. if not, flash official chinese miui 10 rom and they are many guides to get playstore on chinese rom as well.

Ok I see! So once I upgrade to MIUI 10 I will have OTA updates then?
This is the one I need right? https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-pad-4/how-to/rom-miui-10-xiaomi-eu-links-t3864882
Also is there any way of restoring my apps, settings, etc like it is on MIUI 9 right now? OR will I really need to start all over again?
EDIT: I don't believe my Mi Pad 4 is rooted. This seems like good instructions on how to root it and flash a new rom? https://en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
Thanks so much!
i just flashed my mi pad 4 . It had the same rom, just modified rom to include the playstore,
The bootloader is already unlocked.
just boot to fast boot. volume key + power
flash twrp - i used twrp installer bat from here en.miui.com/thread-3196420-1-1.html
once boots twrp, then flash miui 10 - androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=281632
job done.

yeah the link is correct, with xiaomi Eu rom you can still get official updates, maybe just slight delay from official chinese stream. but that's the best support we have so far for international miui roms now. the check update seems to be quite buggy on xiaomi eu rom, sometime it downloads but fails on completion.. just try again.. 2nd try is the charm as always haha. if not you can download the rom and dirty flash no problem, i was on beta previously so maybe thats why.
highly recommend you to start from fresh.. migrating over apps may result in bug occurrence.
This is a list of firmware files for vince. Can anyone tell me which firmware relates to which part of the device? Thanks in advance.
U don't need to unpack the zip, flash it only in the recovery
Thank you for the answer but I already know how to flash. I just wanted to know which file is which firmware. For example one of them is probably the baseband/modem but I don't know which one it is. I want to learn all of them but specifically the one that deals with the touch system may be enough. My phone has a weird touch issue. Touch rarely stops working for a few seconds. This is a used phone and It was same in the latest stock rom and continues doing so in a custom rom. It's not that annoying but I'm gonna try downgrading that firmware if there is any in that archive file. I hope it's not a hardware issue.

Answer with short Google
Latest baseband?
Hi guys, I'm still using the first oreo baseband (from 8.4.27 rom), has there been any new one with the recently released MIUI 10 developer roms? If yes, could someone be so kind and upload it for me? Thanks in advance!
