Not directly related to this section of forum but I just read an article that Xperia 1's firmware is released and in it, there are three code names of next xperia:
Sphinx
Horus
Bahamut
Since there are in Xperia 1's firmware, they all should have SD855.
I don't know how to open "SIN" file. Can anyone check it?
OK, found new info at weibo

SPHINX (J84XX): 5G model
HORUS: (J82XX) 6.1 inch "Xperia 2" global
BAHAMU: (J83X) Japan only model with LCD

Hello,
I am new to Huawei and wanted to understand more how Huawei was differentiating their devices for each markets. If anyone can comment on the aspect they know for sure, please do so. If unsure, it's ok, but please refrain from misleading.
I just receive a BLA-L29 (C636). Are there many models of the Mate 10 Pro, specifically the BLA-L29? Is the C636 the submodel version number (if so, what is that code called, likely not a submodel). Is there a mapping of those models and the markets/regions they are meant for?
Are firmware deployments by regions only done over OTA? If so, do all devices get them or only when in the region on one of the carriers supported? Any official firmware file distribution, or OTA is the only official method of distribution? Firmware finder is the only other unofficial tool I know of, outside the firmware thread, any other alternative of distributing official firmware for the Huawei devices?
And last but not least, if I know the precise model I have, how is the best way to search for, say firmware 8.0.0.142... Firmware Finder or something/somewhere else?
Cheers, thanks for introducing me to the Huawei hardware variations.
Hello everyone,
my brother-in-law bought a Yotaphone 3 from CECT Shop but he accidentally ordered the Chinese/English version, instead of the multi-language version (he only speaks German and Russian).
Is the firmware for the multi-language version available anywhere, so I could flash the phone with it myself?
So far, all I found was references to the Chinese stock firmware.
I afraid there is no another version of the phone or firmware at all. There is only a buggy Chinese version
Yotaphone 3+ has been launched which is International ROM.
I found on youtube example of International Version. If you search for "Yotaphone 3 Global version" you should find 9:12 video - jump to 2:52 to skip unpacking. However, the guy doesn't show if the pre-installed Google Play Store works. But it is shipped with GPS from the start.
So, the main question is how to install international ROM. And where to find it...
Hi Guys,
I owned my Oppo Find X some months ago. Through a webshop in switzerland.
It was titled as Oppo Find X 128GB Global. I payed like 200$ more for that global version.
As I unpacked it, I saw that there was a transparent case inside, just like in the Chinese Versions. According to my information, i thought the global version has no case supplied.
And also the american standard of the charger was inside and a little adapter for europe.
I started the phone and saw the casual Google setup, same like every other Android. Everything was working, Google Assistant, Google Play so I didn't thought about global or not. There were just 2 chinese Apps installed (some Social Network), I deleted them.
Some days later I noticed, that I'm not receiving Notifications from all apps. So I wanted to add some apps more for background activity (as I had read the global version should support 9 apps at once) but after 5 it told me with a message that there could only be set 5 apps.
I started reading more threads about it and saw that there is an CPH1871EX version (europe?) which should be the global version and mine looks like to be the taiwan version. I was also stuck on ColorOS v5.1 and there was no update shown on v5.2 until yesterday where I used a VPN to connect to taiwan, then I received the v5.2.
So my question, have I been fooled? Did I got an chinese Version with installed google apps?
Do I have now to connect to taiwan, everytime I want to check for an OS update?
Is there a way to switch to EX, does it even matter?
What does the A.12 on the end mean, and why didn't I got directly the A29(which is the newest I think)
Oh and a total different question, do we know if every Find X will get ColorOS 6, or just chinese?
Thanks in advance for your support
You can check your device model from "Setting"=>"About Phone"=>"Model".
If your device is CPH1871TW, you can download latest OTA from following url.
https://oppo-tw.custhelp.com/app/software_update_detail/p_name/Find+X
If your device is CPH1871EX, you can download latest OTA from following url.
https://oppo-in.custhelp.com/app/software_update_detail/p_name/Find+X
Or you can download OTA from my thread in XDA.

Every verson will get ColorOS 6, however Chinese model will get ColorOS 6 first than other model.

Hi. I have CPH1875, when we will have Pie?
I do think you got the global version but it was specific to Taiwan for some reason. I have the Australian version and it came with a case so I don't think that's an issue. I also have the 5 startup app limit. CPH1875EX.

On my version, with last update, the lockable apps in recent app are 7. Autostart app were already 9, idk now if the number is still 9 or more, can't try.
Hi, I recently bought a (brand new) Honor 8X from an online store (I'm based in Belgium). It would not upgrade to the new Android 9. It has rolled out in Belgium, so I'm kinda stumped my device would not update. I checked the system information and saw a line "Custom Version CUSTC432D1". I'm a noob concerning technical Android details, and I was wondering:
1) What does it do
2) How did it get there
3) Is this custom version able to prevent an update?
Thanks so much for your information!

Hi there
1. Would not update: EMUI 9 is still not officially available to everyone, even sometimes within same country. Hard to say why.
2. "Custom version" - this is strange, maybe its a network operator based version. Vodafone for example will add some default apps to the firmware. Not necessarily a problem and should stop updates
3. Try downloading "huawei firmware finder" from Play store and see if you can update with this one
4. What is your exact device model? This is important to know. The model numbers starts with JSN-xxxxxxx

Hey. For point 2) just for the sake of it, I bought another device (from a physical store this time, in my country), and the same Customer Version was on there. So I assume that's normal.. (Afterwards, I returned it)
3. I found firmware, but for my 'code' (JSN-L21C432CUSTC432D1B136') it only goes to 8.2.0.136
4. My build number is JSN-L21 8.2.0.136 (C432)
It's probably just not available for my specific custom version..
Thanks for the info!
EDIT: was too fast on point 3 and did find some firmware
This is kinda a newbie question but I guess I'm in the right forum section.
Are the global/row versions officially released by Lenovo? Or are they released by a third-party? This is just a security concern.
I've been trying to find this model in the Lenovo website, but for some reason it just isn't listed, I can only find it in the china website https://club.lenovo.com.cn/thread-5481078-1-1.html
I even tried different regions: https://lenovomobilesupport.lenovo.com/hk/en/search?query=l38041 weird, huh?
If the CN version has full english support then I guess I wouldn't mind using that one, but if there's an official RoW version then I'll get that one instead.
Is the Lenovo app the only official source for ROMs? It can be downloaded by selecting whatever model... I don't think they have different apps...
I'm also interested in this.
