My friend buy reno 10x from china and he sell it to me i Thailand.
Anyone know is that possible to flash thailand rom(CPH1919EX) in to chinese phone(PCCM00)? I need to convert Chinese to Thai.

I found how to update firmware with SD Card from oppo website here..
https://oppo.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/6636
Will it work? Or I need other flash tool?

and I found
The oppo website Thai version are for CPH1919EX
https://oppo-th.custhelp.com/app/software_update_detail/p_name/Reno+10x+Zoom
After I download it I got a file are .ozip format?!?!?
http://downloads.oppo.com.s3.amazon...9/CPH1919EX_11_OTA_0110_all_JPm1xztqBeum.ozip
I'm not sure it need to use "ozip" or webmaster mistake for zip!??

From oppo australia website firmware for same model link..
https://oppo-au.custhelp.com/app/software_update_detail/p_name/Reno 10x Zoom
But it different file and version?!?
https://downloads.oppo.com.s3.amazo...19/CPH1919EX_11_OTA_0100_all_I8XnaGpC4zXf.zip

So I confused.Anyone ever try? update flash rom CPH1919EX to PCCM00? Should I try?
And is that Aus version different from Thai version? can I try them both?

I was call to oppo thailand office but,they don't help me any thing,Just said buy from china no support in thailand.
Hope I can get help here.Please..

I also have a PCCM00 Chinese model Oppo Reno 10X Zoom - which I bought simply because it has awesome features... although I do currently have an iPhone XS Max from my carrier. I was hoping it would be able to replace my iPhone - which I hate. But the Chinese customizations on the phone make it quite a pain to use for me (no offense to the Chinese, I am sure those customizations are super-useful to them, just not for me).

I downloaded the Australian, UK, Indian versions of the firmware from the Oppo support sites (I visited each individual country's support page) - they were all having the extension .zip and the exact same file names so I am assuming they are the same firmware with possibly some minor localization customization.

I copied these .zip files (added country name to the file name) each one to a SD card. Powered down my phone, inserted the SD card into the phone and rebooted in the safemode/recovery mode for Oppo (volume down and power button pressed for 4 seconds).

I went to the install from SD card option and selected the India file first - it started installing, but midway gave an error saying unable to install/failed.
The same happened with all the other countries with the .zip extension - with the installation erroring out midway.

I am now going to try the Thai version (.ozip file) will let you know how it goes.

I think downloading international ROM and trying to install on the Chinese variant is not working. You have to wait for official bootloader unlock. Oppo Reno (non 10x zoom version) is open for unlocaking the bootloader officially, so I am assuming official bootloader unlock is coming for 10x zoom version soon.

How do you know Oppo Reno is open for unlocking? Source please.

I asked Oppo official and they said they won't release unlock codes for the Reno because it opens up too big of a security risk. (I can post the quote later). They implied that they will never release them..

Here is the link, however, it is in Chinese website only. Sorry about this as I don't have permission to paste an external link right now.

have to download the apk for Reno of "deep testing" and then submit application. The bootloader can be unlocked once your application is approved.

Yes, unfortunately that is correct.
I tried all the stock ROMs available - only the Chinese version of the ROM can be installed on the PCCM00 model using the stock loader. None of the other localized ROMs will work on the PCCM00.

interesting, to clearify, here is the translation:

The OPPO mobile phone depth test has already supported the official version of the Find X/R17 Pro/Reno series. Users who have successfully joined the deep test can unlock the mobile phone. For the information of other models, please pay attention to the latest news of this post.

[Apply to join the depth test conditions]

The application must meet all of the following conditions:
1. Published time must be more than 3 months;
2. No application record within 60 days;
3. OPPO account has been last login for more than 60 days in this device;
4. The number of deep test users has not reached the upper limit;
5. No Customized, government enterprises or companies mobile phones;
6. Support listed mobile phones in mainland China.

[Application to join the depth test instructions]

1. Joining a test plan may have unpredictable impacts on the phone;
2. The three-party firmware may cause some functions of the mobile phone to malfunction, such as taking a photo with the camera. And may cause damage to the equipment;
3. Personal security and privacy on the mobile phone may cause leakage, and security is not guaranteed;
4. Some system functions may be modified after joining the test plan, which will affect the system version upgrade and cannot experience the latest ColorOS service;
5. After joining the test plan, the status of the mobile phone is equivalent to restoring the factory settings. It is recommended to back up the data in advance;
6. The phone after joining the test plan cannot be repaired for free.


[Unlock tutorial]

1. Download the installation depth test APK, enter the depth test APK, connect to the OPPO account, click the “Start Application” button, and follow the prompts to complete the application process. If the application is successful, the following interface will be displayed. (Successful partners who submit the review must switch the version back to the official version and upgrade to the version that supports the deep test when the OTA detects the latest version, otherwise the verify will not pass);
So yes this program will allow to unlock your bootloader but only if you make it into the program, and even then people don't get their phone unlocked, if you read other posts on xda about "oppo depth test".

I may be a new victim of the PCCM00 version. I did apply so now I got to wait 28 days, but then I am not quite sure what to do, to be able to achieve better android experience.
