Hi Guys,
As a UK based Android game developer we have recently had a few games released on China Mobile and 189 stores via a publisher/distributor who have a presence in-country.
For our future titles I'm currently investigating the idea of submitting to these Chinese app stores ourselves in order to hopefully bypass the ‘middle man’ so to speak.
Lots of links to the app stores 'developer centres' exist, however it seems I've failed at the first hurdle. During the registration process I am being asked for our Chinese business license number and Tax registration number. I cannot seem to bypass this section or submit our UK business details in order to continue. Either that or I'm being asked to input a Chinese mobile number in order to receive a verification code.
Just wondering if anyone else had any experience of self submitting to these China stores? It seems as though anyone outside of China is not allowed to submit apps? Is that correct?
Thanks in advance
Mark.
Hi Guys,
By the lack of replies it seems this might not be the correct forum for this type of subject
Does anyone know of any other good forums which may be able to help me out.
Thanks again.

Hi there,
You could try this makingmoneywithandroid dot com. They have a very good forum.
Out of curiosity - which distributor did you work with there? We worked with Tencent and the whole experience was / is a bit difficult, to say the least.

Hi Tom, Thanks for the link.
We went with a publisher called Thumbstar, who are based in the UK, who work with a company from China called Viva Red. Currently they are getting us on the state owned stores like China Mobile and China Telecom.
I have heard of Tecent. Aren't they a massive 3rd party app store? So did you apply through their website or did they send you an invite to put your games on their store? Have you had much sales success with them?
M.
I know Thumbstar, they have quite a lot of games for Android in their portfolio. How was your experience with them?
As for Tencent, yes, their are a massive company (games, web, WeChat, etc.). They got in touch with us regarding one of the games we've published. We also had two titles published in China with The9 but it was quite a long time ago and I'm not sure if they are still in the business.

Will send you a PM Tom.
I can give u really advice because i am from china .here in china there are too many store
but ,you can choose some big store just like 360.cn ,91,wandoujia,and myapp.com .you can contact me by [email protected] .i may give u some help .
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
From my own experience it is easy to submit to Wandoujia (Peas Pod), takes about a week for them to approve everything, you need to prove you're the copyright holder of the the app (scan of company certificate) when you submit along with a signed "owner" form from their submission process. Registering is pretty straight forward thanks to Google Translate (for best results install the Google Translate addon into your web browser and/or use Chrome):
http://pmt.wandoujia.com/apps/dev/home
I've only submitted a free app, not sure but suspect things are more complicated with paid apps.
Other Chinese app stores are harder to submit to but usually only because of translation issues or also having to install their apps first and create an account - the apps are always Chinese too.
My app is on many stores in China, but I never uploaded it, they are just distributing a cracked version... :-/
What about Xiaomi? http://app.xiaomi.com/
$10 publish fee for each China app store
I check the website called www.app4chinese.com and they provide service to publish app in China. $10 per store and they list 19 China app stores on their website.
Hi Maineyak,
We actually help developers to promote globally their apps in different stores (not just gPlay) and increase efficiently the number of downloads.
Send us a PM if you need more information or check our website

there's lot of 3rd party android marketing in China, it will be much a better to have a partner there. the marketing potential is really big.
I am looking to find stock firmware for the Galaxy Camera 2, but seem to have come to a dead end.
I live in China, and have bought a new Galaxy Camera 2 here. I love the camera, but the firmware installed is obviously region specific, and is missing many things that come as standard on Western stock firmware (such as all Google apps including the Play Store etc.) and Facebook for example.
I know I could just use Odin to root the device, take off the Chinese bloatware and side load the apks I wanted, but I would prefer to use a new stock firmware from somewhere like US or UK.
I've been searching for several days, including on xda, but can't find anywhere reliable with the firmware. Would anyone here be able to point me in the right direction? I'm pretty sure no ones asked this question before on the forum, but if I'm being stupid and have simply missed it, I hope you'll forgive my ignorance.
Otherwise cheers, and I appreciate any help offered. :good:
SamMobile has the US(Cellular South) firmware:

Hello in China! Unfortunately due to the fact that I'm new in this forum, I'm not yet permitted to place links in my posts and/or replies Which is no fun, especially when you think that you might have the answer for someone! BUT, hopefully you can find the page I'm talking about by doing an online search for 'regional firmware for ek-gc200' which should lead to the link I believe you're looking for on the very 1st page of google listed as 'Samsung Updates - Firmware Download Page' . OR you can always try Samsung's main site and search for an 'updates' section on there Hope it helps!
I received official update for ALP-L29 C185 to version 119.
now everything is smooth and stable, no crash or hang anymore.
Thanks huawei for the update
any other improvements you noticed regarding battery and camera etc? btw i have the exact same region fone with alp-l29 8.0.0.115(185) in Pakistan but no update notification for me

I am trying to get it through apps Firmware Finder and DNS changer. See screenshots.
Steps how to do it:
1. Install Firmware Finder;
2. Install DNS Changer
3. Open Firmware Finder;
4. Find your firmware (matching model No and C###) and click on it;
5. Click "Get update through DNS (beta)";
6. In DNS Changer change DNS to 81.177.139.39
7. Go to System update and check for updates.
8. After all of this you will get the ability to download the latest update, but server connection fails when I click install (with set DNS address you get the message "Server temporarily unavailable) or authorization fails if disable DNS changer..

What's your location ? I wonder if I can force that update through VPN/IP change.
The question is, have you been able to install this update?
You can only install with FF if the update is approved by Huawei for your device (in which case you should be getting an OTA update anyway).
If it's not approved by Huawei for install, you can use FunkyHuawei.

So does anyone else here have a problem seeing this spam for expensive paid services on XDA?
Remember when this site used to be about sharing the love with fellow members, rather than making cash by simply redistributing firmware.
I don't imagine Huawei would like this guy selling their software, even if XDA is taking a cut of his profits.

just got my mate 10 pro, first time huawei user and did not expect to pay for a firmwareupgrade.
i get that he discovered a method to authenticate the firmware so the device recognize it and thats a nice accomplishment but why charge other users for that?? he just injects some code through his dns server.. in my opinion every thread should be deleted that covers funkyhuawei and the user should be permabanned..

If the infrastructure to install firmwares were as simple as you describe, it would be available for free. Unfortunately, it's not nearly as simple as you describe.
FH incurs costs to provide things that are charged for, including the authentication of installations, the unbricking, the rebranding, and so on. On top of that, maintenance, R&D, support, and so on is a full-time job. That's why users need to be charged. Things like rooting the Mate 10 which don't cost FH are provided for free, even though R&D was necessary to accomplish it. Same goes for the TWRP versions we've released. It's nowhere near as profitable or as evil as you presume it is. The service could not possibly run if the users were not charged.
Regardless, there's absolutely no reason you'd need to use the service to install updates. You can wait for them to be released by Huawei and get them for free. It's simply an alternative for people who want to do things they otherwise can't, and it's not FH's fault that Huawei created this problem in the first place.
Maybe it's time to get this post back on topic, no?
hello you can maybe offer a 1 credit to xda people for one free flash that will be christmas gift

Xda developers are getting their $$$ through donations and it’s understandable that most users will not like what you do
I am all up for donating my heard earned money to devs @XDA. I ain't no Warran Buffet (net worth 77.7 billion USD), but I donate about 25-50 EUR to each and every xda developer whose services/ROM I use and since I am switching between phones like every 5/6 months I donate quite a lot of money, but as soon as I saw your FunkyHuawei support thread/ https://funkyhuawei.club/ I was like naaaaaah I ain’t using it, especially because the way the credit system is built – before I bought ALP-L29 which I don’t need to rebrand to, I was thinking of buying ALP-L00 instead and rebrand it through https://funkyhuawei.club/ which would cost me 2 credits, but in that case I would have 3 credits left, since the minimum you can buy is 5 credits for 31 USD. That already looks like a rip-off.
I wonder whether if you would get more $$$ through donations than you do through your FunkyHuawei credit system..
Don’t get me wrong. It’s cool that such service exist (I’ve had one xiaomi phone for quite some time without the option to rebrand it/re-flash it and remove all Chinses stuff out of it, so I have been "there"), but you should either limit mentioning your paid service in every other topic and stick to one thread (FunkyHuawei support thread) or change your pricing policy enabling the option to buy a single 1 credit/single service (rebranding, for example), otherwise hate-posts will go on
Take care

So check out the longstanding Forum rules :
7. Do not spam, sell or trade on the forums.
If you wish to advertise a product, simply contact us. We can provide ads but you are not permitted to just post it in the forums. If you do, it will be removed and you're likely to receive a ban.
11. Don’t post with the intention of selling something.
Don’t use XDA to advertise your product or service. Proprietors of for-pay products or services, may use XDA to get feedback, provide beta access, or a free version of their product for XDA users and to offer support, but not to post with the intention of selling. This includes promoting sites similar / substantially similar to XDA-Developers.com.
Do not post press releases, announcements, links to trial software or commercial services, unless you’re posting an exclusive release for XDA-Developers.com.
Off-site downloads are permitted if the site is non-commercial and does not require registration.
13. Advertising and Income Generation
Commercial advertising, advertising referral links, pay-per-click links and other income generating methods are forbidden. Do not use XDA-Developers as a means to make money.
And most importantly, The one that embodies the mindset of this forum to me : the sharing of tools and knowledge and not charging other members for services ..
12. Sharing
XDA-Developers is based on the principle of sharing to transmit knowledge. This is the cornerstone of our site. Our members and developers freely share their experience, knowledge, and finished works with the rest of the community to promote growth within the developer community, and to encourage those still learning to become better. There are those, however, who take advantage of this model and try to make personal gains from the hard work of others.
I think it's just disappointing that you've seen XDA as a way to make more money by simply charging high rates for redistributing Huaweis proprietary firmware, rather than embrace the spirit of all the other Devs who put in a lot of hard work and time to share their creations freely with other passionate members here.
It's like the exact opposite ethos of ROM development and the intention of these forums.
Sorry you view this as off topic.

I noticed that both Germany (upated to 127) and India (face unlock) have had updates but after talking on chat to the UK Honor rep there apparently is no information about any updates/features for UK customers.
Additionally tried to register for club.hihonor.com and the 'Country/Region' selection does not even include the UK at all.
So apparently we're ok to buy them and pay full price same as everyone else, but not ok for the same level of support or customer service.
I'm putting this here because I bought this phone after the positive reviews from many commentators but it's now obvious to me that these commentators don't all do their homework properly and some just concentrate on the product and forget about the other differentiator, which is the after-sales, customer service and support.

Yes I'm aware of project treble, but that has absolutely nothing to do with honor, several other android phones support project treble indeed it is a must by google that any device with Oreo out of the box has to support it. The point i was making was particular to honor support not android in general. Additionally project Treble requires you to unlock the BL, OTA updates by manufacturer do not.

Apologies but your quoted project treble so i assumed you were familiar with what that entails. You can read up on it if you need deeper info but what it comes down to is to use project treble you replace your system.img partition and you cannot do that without unlocking your bootloader. A manufacturer provided OTA update is signed and therefore updates your system normally without having to unlock anything just a standard system update. That is why the point is that if honor does not provide updates you have to resort to some custom update which is not the same. Now Honor has already updated both German and Indian honor 9 Lite (read threads here and you'll find reference to that) but UK ones are not even scheduled according to their own customer service who i chatted with. Try and register on club.hihonor.com and you'll discover the UK according to them is not even on the planet since they list most countries except the UK.

As far as I understood Project Treble is more related to the vendor partition. Never ever heard before that you have to unlock the bootloader to get updates from Project Treble. Are you sure about that? Any links?

go here https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659 and search for 'vendor partition' and you'll realise what you say is partially correct. Some vendors integrate the vendor partition inside system.img some have A and B partitions some only have A partition (like ours). You can never overwrite the system partition without unlocking the bootloader because it is set to read only, if it wasn't the whole of the android community would be in a heap of trouble. Imagine users (who don't know what they're doing) gaining access to /system and amending stuff, the result will most likely boot loop or soft/hard brick your device.
Anyway, this is taking us away from the point I was making and apologies but will not be adding anything further, if you do not agree with it that ofcourse is your prerogative.

I'd say, this article makes a very good description of what Project Treble is in fact:

@xzyk thanks for the info.
Im based in the UK also and was going to purchases the 9 Lite but i'll hold off for now. If custom ROMs pick up that may change.

Actions speak louder than words and by its actions to its UK customer base huawei/honor is showing how much it truly values us. Since there is absolutely nothing we can do about it i suggest best course of action is to vote with your feet and next purchase will be anything but a huawei/honor. At least that is still within our control. Huawei/honor give you some great value on hardware side unfortunately evidence shows that doesn't carry over to the software.

Actions speak louder than words and by its actions to its UK customer base huawei/honor is showing how much it truly values us. Since there is absolutely nothing we can do about it i suggest best course of action is to vote with your feet and next purchase will be anything but a huawei/honor.

Which is what mine said till i used the Firmware tool on this site to upgrade from 8.0.0.128 to 8.0.0.131 so now i am on the latest. If you do the same i suggest you use the Full OTA update.
Huawei UK also said that 8.0.0.128 was the latest for the UK as well.
Hi at all. I don't trust in a strange program finding in Google "root honor 10 lite".
I've always root,mod and more here.
So in wanna ask if there is a tested way to do it,or aren't available

There are no methods to unlock bootloader at the moment, neither paid ones, so not possible to root. This smartphone was a flop, nobody bought it, and now that Honor View 10 lite 4/128 costs almost the same it will be even worse, so don't expect too much activity on this forum.
Ok thanks.

Sorry I don't know anyone that can do that, maybe if you search in the forums of other honor devices you find a developer available for it. Tomorrow I'm changing smartphone though, and I'll sell this one, I'm done with Honor and Huawei brands.
