Can you be more specific on your problems? All the Google apps I've tried, including Google+, work just fine for me.

I use the device customized for China, without any Google service and apps preloaded. I install by manually and want to install G+ in play, but failed. Another try is copy the apk file form another Note 2, also failed.
Could you please send me the apk
?

Note 2? What? Did you mean Note 8? it all works just fine.
The Chinese stock ROM does NOT support apps that depend on google service. So google+, gmail, drive... all NOT available in that ROM.
You can flash a Taiwan version stock ROM or ROM for other countries. There are some known issues if you just flash the gapps to the Chinese stock ROM, eg, google map won't tell where you are...
Chinese Note 8
Hi,
I'm also stuck with the Mainland China Version of the Note 8, besides being not able to use google.play and other google stuff it seems to be a bit slow on lot of other things.
I tried to replace the chinese version with other ROM's , but sofar it alsways failed when it came to loading/writing modem.bin.
Luckily sofar I was able to recover the unit via Kies.
What I did :
1.download of another stock rom i.e. german
2. install Odin 3 , run it as admin
3. connect the Note to an Windows 7 pc , USB driver works
4. follow the various instructions found here
5. also tried the Note 8 toolkit
6. everything looks fine until it reaches the modem.bin file.
7. failed .....
Also tried it with rooting the Note 8 first via the toolkit
For good order sake pls note the following : Model Number GT-N5100
Android Version 4.1.2
Baseband Version N5100ZCBMD2
Kernel Version 3.0.31-1087838
Build Number JZO54K.N5100ZCBMD2
Any suggestion what else to do ? Or which Rom to use ?
Tks

You can try this one. Simply copy it to internal SD and flash it with CWM recovery.
I'm not the owner of this ROM. I think it is based on the rooted ROM published here earlier.
OH... I'm too new to publish a outside link... try use baidu.com and search for " 新欧版rom（奥地利 3 Hutchison通讯）汉化修改版发布！！！" ... Hope this helps...
Internet access
Hi,
that was a bit premature : the statement it works. Basically it does, however I can't get any data transmission work when not connected to wifi.
Using the phone as a phone is ok, Internet access does not, it says "No network connection available"
With WiFi no problem
Has this something to do with the non chinese Firmware ? Which I would find a bit odd since I never had any problem with importet phones in china sofar.
Anybody has a clue ?
