How to update the application on the phone MEZ. How to flash Meizu, installing the official version of the OS. If applications are not loaded in Google Play or gives an error

While everyone was waiting for the new smartphone OnePlus. Two, few people drew a very interesting fact. In the new update of the firmware dated July 26, 2015, with the index "A" (the Chinese version of the smartphone), the Russian language disappeared for M2 Note.
All would be nothing, and someone thought that perhaps it was just a mistake if not a statement of the official representative of Meizu:

On the this moment The Russian language is supported exclusively in the International version, which is not so easy to find in China, with the exception of MX4 and MX4 Pro.

You can put the MORELOCALE application, but this does not solve the problem with the translation. If earlier users had the support of the Russian language from the "box" and updating the firmware in two clicks, now there is no choice. Either buy a smartphone from a local distributor with an extra charge of 25-30%, or refuse to Russian or not to update the smartphone.


It would seem that the problem can be solved by the firmware of the smartphone by software from the version "I", but everything rests on the fact that the MEZ smartphones have a closed bootloader. Romodelas have not yet been able to circumvent this blocking.

Of course the motives this solution Clear. Meizu is trying to protect his market in those countries in which Mase representation is open, but such a move may also scare buyers from the CIS, which will prefer cheaper Lenovo type brands.


Chinese shop Coolicool, Gearbest and sellers with Aliexpress are very unhappy with this turn of events, because they understand what it can end for them:

• a) refusal to receive parcels
• b) refusal to buy smartphones
• c) disputes on a partial return of funds (enough to update the firmware, open the dispute, get refund and then return to the old firmware).

If Gearbest cooperates with the largest stores on Aliexpress (ETERNAL TIM, SBT, Gold Wei), as well as with COOLICOOL, it is possible that they will be able to enjoy the company MEZ to return support for remote languages.

At least Gearbest promised to figure out and contact Meizu.

Carved Languages:

Update 29.07.2015:

a) A group of stores with AliacPress in the amount of 25-30 sheets combined efforts to submit a complaint to MEZ.
b) The owner of Gearbest will also complain about innovations:

Update 07/30/2015:

I post a conversation with the manager of Gearbest (after the Gearbest owner talked with the owner of the MEZ)

* Let's hope that Russian is still adding.

Smartphones OT. chinese manufacturer Meizu conquer enormous popularity among users from Russia and CIS countries. They are more productive, they look good and not very expensive. And this is the mixture that is capable of attracting a potential buyer.

In the smartphones, everything is good: hardware filling, firmware with branded shell, clean battery. But there is one disadvantage: they are supplied without pre-installed Google Play..

As a result, the smartphone will be installed outdated versionWhat is fraught with consequences. What are these consequences? Other manufacturers of smartphones, they are usually not frightened. Be that as it may, "Market" is not. And it returns us to the question of how on Meizu.

As for "gray" devices, those that are not intended for russian market, then on them "Market" can not be a priori. If you are the owner of such a device, then you have something small.

In some models, devices will have to even reset the device to factory settings. Be careful! This action will delete all personal data of the user: contacts, images, music and so on. You may also need to restart the device to apply all changes. So, how about Meizu? Let's go to active actions.

You can do it in the settings of the store itself. If you do not have an account, the application will kindly suggest to create it. Another common error is the inability to establish a connection with Google servers. Here you need to check the permission to download when connecting using mobile network. Sometimes it helps a discharge of a smartphone to the factory settings.
