Where did you get your phone from?Typical, UK have way more issues on the phone and they roll out a USA update without a UK update :/
Amazon preordered
You can download the entire Chinese ROM for the chinese site (via the terrible Baidu Pan). You have to have either a ZTE or a Baidu account since it's 2.35 GB. Then you can unpack the whole image. I'd have to imagine there device tree would be the same since it's the same hardware.anyone able to grab the url or update file itself from their phones?
EDIT:
URL is here: https://dl1.ztems.com/zxmdmp/downlo...ZTE A2017U/80686/update_P996A01_B18_to_B20.up
And I've uploaded the zip here: https://1drv.ms/f/s!Aml_mAb8_F4zpmIp2nL5ipl1oUOx as it is too large to upload here.
The OTA has a boot.img file, but it looks like it's a patch file; not sure if there is enough in there to pull the stuff needed for a device tree or not. That's the next test.
I think this one was mainly a security update/patch.Don't notice any changes with the update

Nope. There is no US factory firmware posted anywhere. AFAIK, the European one is closer to the Chinese one than the US one, software wise. What's the version number of the European one.Is there any source to download the US rom version and try to install it on the European version??

Don't have the phone yet, just asked if it is possible to flash us rom since having more features than European version like dynamic lock screen or 60FPS video recording that European rom don't have.Nope. There is no US factory firmware posted anywhere. AFAIK, the European one is closer to the Chinese one than the US one, software wise. What's the version number of the European one.
The Chinese has been B04-B07. The US one has been B18 and B20.

I connected my phone to my computer, ran logcat and checked for the update. Digging through the resulting logcat file, I found the URL in my original post that I was able to download directly to my computer versus the phone.you mind e asking how to aage to grab the Update file?![]()
