I was just given this as a gift. I have AT&T, but it is sim locked to China Telecom. It says 4G is locked by China Telecom. Phone calls, text, and EDGE (2G) work for me with my AT&T sim. If I were to sim unlock it, will LTE then work for me? It is the CRR-UL00 version.
Also curious about rooting and installing google play services. Any advice?
Does anyone know where to purchase one of these in the states? Been looking all over the place with no luck.

i want to buy this aswell (living in USA).
I found the 128gb version availible here. http://welectronics.com/gsm/HUAWEI/...Dgx7U-pfjmFq25GnZoF_EUOocEIn1wvMPsaApEc8P8HAQ
$999.99
At that price I might as well just pick up a flagship phone here and save some money. Haha

Yeah the Mate 7 is a killer phone and I have been contemplating it. Let me know how you like it and I'll really consider it. I just want something better than my Note 4.
@ogre del - The above website has ps2 for $219. Wtf!!
That site is insane lol
Found on amazon the 64gb version for 850, or on alliexpress the 64gb version is anywhere from 675-800. I'm contumplating ordering it from allie, but have never dealt with them. Anyone here ever use alliexpress?

Anybody able to order yet for international delivery? Trying to get one here in USA... aliexpress & other seem not to have any yet Even though on sale......
Clove has it and carphone warehouse.
Hi,
I bought a P30 pro, 256GB with a Huawei Watch GT (a "gift") , at 3.dk in Denmark for DKK 5.160 i.e. ~ $ 775 + ~$7 a month more than I used to pay for the network. It is to be delivered next week.
I know nothing about the version no., but hope it is European 432. Dual-sim should be included.
I have been quite happy with my P20 pro, but unhappy with slow very slow updates. But after a year of updates the camera i absolutely faboulous now, which it was not to begin with.
According to our DXO friends in France the P30 pro is the absolutely best on photografing, so I am looking forward to see if they are right there
Good luck
Kurt
So Amazon UK has it for pre-order with delivery by April 6... was able to place an order here in the USA... Funny enough, Amazon France has it as well but won't... I'll see if they scrap my pre-order but in my recent experience with the Xiaomi Mi 9, if the order is in, it charges ok and then its golden... fingers cross. Should get it before April 9th!!!!

It should go through. I ordered the Huawei super car charger from there and it said couldn't be delivered to the US. I got it a few days later. Already placed my order for the P30 pro from Amazon UK.

TMobile of course but yes no wifi calling since its not a phone available in the US even though I heard TMobile overseas has it as an offering. I haven't dig into that aspect to see if I can. I do know that you can always do the the Google voice workaround but really isn't a factor for me currently :angel:

I purchased mine from TechnoLec U.K. and got the unlocked Global / U.K. version for use in the USA. I did not get the best deal, but I didn't want to mess with some of the other people on eBay that seemed a little sketchy. These guys are authorized and they had 100% ratings. Hopefully it works out.

Can you confirm the phone has VOLTE on TMO US?
Place a call with wifi off and see if it still says 4g LTE.
Or download Network Cell Info Lite from playstore and go to the Device + Sim and see if VoLTE capable says "Yes".
Screen shot would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

I believe one is International (VOG-L29) and the other is U.K. (VOG-L09). The bands are the same. Th VOG-L29 is "hybrid dual SIM"

You can after unlocking the bootloader. Also keep in mind the Chinese version don't work on certain LTE bands in some parts of the world. I bought a Chinese one and the LTE didn't work on O2 network in UK. I had to return it and get the global Mi 9, hope this helps.

The shops selling the Chinese one should have the global one as well, also check online and ebay most of the sellers selling this phone on ebay are from China, they can send you a piece on a quick delivery, keep in mind global only comes with 6gb ram and has a global rom, in order to check go to settings..... about phone and look at MIUI version it should say global, mine is "global 10.2.1 stable", hope this helps
Use the search function is the answer. It has been answered at least 10 times.
Hi folks,
I'm interested in buying this phone. It looks like a good option.
However, I'm not quite sure that there is a global version. Anyone got this phone already outside of China and can approve that the AliExpress 'global' version actually works?
Thanks,
FM

No, there is no global version (with band 20) and it is very unlike that it will ever be. If you can live without band 20 you can buy the chinese version and flash Xiaomi.eu.
yesterday some aliexpress sellers have began to offer mi 9 lite, it's rumoured it will be cc9 global version
there's an antutu score for mi a3 pro matching the cc9
i hope they'll release it with android one
It's really a shame. It has NFC, and is a verified device for Google services, but it still can't run Google Pay with latest Google Services.

Apparently, they are selling the 128 GB version on INDIA too. And it isn't the Tencent VErsion. It is the global version one, with the aero case, but with the 18W charger and no cooler.
Here's the proof.

If it actually comes with WW firmware natively, I'm planning on buying that one.

The Indian model is listed as having VoLTE and the only retailer I can find that has it listed is Flipkart. They list the model number as
ZS660KL-1A017IN
I'm guessing India is getting their own special version. IIRC Indian law requires a certain percentage of the phone to be manufactured in India.

I checked Kimovil yesterday regarding tencent version's supported bands for India, and it has all the necessary ones. Which leads me to believe that the phone will be very similar to the tencent version, with some better stuff like aero case and global firmware, but not that far off. For those without a ROG 2 yet it seems worth it to get it form there, but without expecting any additional bands IMO.

I didn't say it is.
I said that the tencent version already has all LTE Bands for India, so the "India version", however different it may be with the aero case, global firmware, etc., most likely won't have a change of LTE Bands. At least that's what I think.

Thanks for the link, I ordered one directly from Asus. Wasn't crazy about $70 in tax but at least I know I will have a valid warranty and I can return it if I need to without a hassle.
