You may have changed the rom to WW but did you successfully change the fingerprint? You can check with device info hw from playstore, under system it'll show what rom have, the product id and fingerprint

Did you check with that app what the fingerprint is?
Yes, there is a way...
Use this thread but ignore the beginning, I take it you BOOTLOADER IS UNLOCKED still? Instead of the root img provided there use the one linked below as it's for 1908.21 then follow the steps to change fingerprint...

While you're on WW, have you updated to latest version 1910.35? It may fix some of the issues/things you prefer about the CN rom...
But sure, I'll have a look for CN raw rom and root /stock img's to match to change it back again...

thank you, but my phone was bricked but i fixed it thanks again
How did you fix it and which version ur running...plz I need help
I just got my phone, a VKY-L09 and its running B195 ...
I only seem to see B123 to latest B160 in stock firmware available.
I even tried using the aforementioned firmware finder.
Further, it seems that most of the roms (custom or otherwise) are biased on firmware many versions older.
I really want to root my phone but without a stock solution to flash I'm reluctant to do so.
Anyone have B195 stock or know where to find it?

It's because we're using the Canadian ( and probably be American) variant. Our build number is higher, but European builds are better. Try anything that's L09 B160, battery should improve

Thanks, I took your advice and downloaded a B162 build as a stock solution.
Took the plunge and my phone is now TWRP - Rooted with some small tweaks.

I highly recommend the Genesis ROM by @Blackball , it's really great.
It's what I'm using for now until I can get a working AOSP build created. Hopefully soon, I've been making progress

It seems I screwed up my data partition in my system and cant get the phone to make calls or the camera to work. Not even my backups get things working again.
Was thinking that If I need to flash stock or redo my phone fm scratch, may as well flash Genesis.
Can I just format data, wipe everything and flash the rom even on 192 base?
Or do I have to de-brand and install the 160 base to flash Genesis rom?

You can but he recommends rebranding to European L29. If I still had any FunkyHuawei credits left I'd hook you up but I've already used them

Thanks for the offer.
I tried to install it without re-branding and everything works except themes and phone info is messed up but other then that, everything seems as advertised. Thanks again for your advice and good luck with your AOSP build!

Can someone check the fingerprint for the US and Indian Version?

Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can check the device fingerprint and possibly post a build.prop for the US and Indian versions of this phone.
I've got a CN phone that I'd like to experiment with.
Also wondering if someone has access to the RAW files for these two versions.
I didn't want to clog the CN to WW thread with this discussion.

+1 for this. I have the Tencent CN version on the way and hope to tinker with it right away.
I will be very happy if the US/IN versions are the same hardware wise as the CN Region

Check WW or CN, good to go or modification required?

Hi all,
I am expecting delivery of my Tencent version soon. The seller from AliExpress confirmed that the device is with global rom from factory, i doubt his claim though
Appreciate it if someone could hightlight what needs to be checked to confirm if any modifications such as rom version, locking the bootloader etc would be required.
This will help to check if i need to change anything ir the rom provided is good to go...
Thanks :good:

Install device info hw from playstore, under system it should say ww for rom, product and fingerprint. If it does you can go ahead and update to latest version 1908

Hmm, not sure. I went to 1907 first but that's because I wanted root and followed that guide. But, there's now a rooted 1908 so it would probably be fine to go straight to that version, rooted or not. Do have a read of the guides tho and following posts too

since ur finger print is no longer CN, then u can manually update directly from 1906 to 1908
Asus is warning on their forums about sellers selling modified tencent version with WorldWide ROM and that is not correct ROM it should have and Asus says any tencent versions with WW ROM is not official device by Asus and you should return device back to seller. Since warranty won't count and FOTA would probably not work.

Can somebody tell me what ROM is this?

Sorry for the probably stupid question.
Just bought the Tencent variant (via China obviously), the phone came with Google Playstore preinstalled the firmware version is : pkq1.190414.001.ww_phone-16.0622.1906.19-0
Is this the International fw ?

Yes, it's international WW, but, you need to check the fingerprint is WW too before you can update to 1908. You can use device info hw from playstore, it'll show under system, you need WW Rom, which you have, plus product and fingerprint need to be WW too

Google pay not working

Hi all
I am trying to set up the Google pay but I am getting the error: Couldn't finish to pay in stores. This phone can't be used to pay in stores. This may be because it is rooted or altered in some other way.
I tried to delete the cache and storage but no chance!
Any ideas?
Are you using official Asus Rog phone 2 or a tencent version with ww ROM?
I'm unrooted and have the bootloader locked and my Google pay works fine on my tencent converted to ww phone.

Like other user said it will say tencent on the back if it's tencent version. If you got tencent, then go into settings --> System --> About Phone and look at software I formation if text there starts with WW_ then yours has got worldwide firmware. When it's supposed have Chinese version.
So most likely you bought a modified tencent version and that device has no warranty and FOTA does not work and Asus are stating any tencent version with WW firmware is not official device. Asus do not manufacture a tencent version with WW firmware. So you should either contact your reseller and request a refund and ship the item back and buy a proper tencent version with Chinese firmware or non tencent version.

My came unrooted. I don't see a point of root since it breaks Google pay for me. Unrooted, I just opened Google pay and told it to use the cards I had on file. Can't answer volte question as it isn't widely implemented where I am and 2G isn't being cut off anytime soon.

I'm in Canada using WW firmware. I bought my phones from AliExpress through the ETeam store. Selected regular shipping and didn't have to pay taxes. Just message them to flash the phone and change the fingerprint to WW from CN.
