And this application is absolutely necessary for any user. How to install Google Play on Meizu? This question is now and we will analyze.

Why doesn't Google Play install in Meizu?

It happened that the company's engineers decided not to supply this application integrated into the firmware of the device. The reason for this looks completely reasonable: until the device reaches the end user, the application will already have time to update several times. As a result, an outdated version will be installed on the smartphone, which is fraught with consequences.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 the "gray" devices, those that are not intended for the Russian market at all, then they cannot be a priori "market". If you are the owner of such a device, then you have something small.

Next, press the "Start" button, after that the installation process will begin new firmware.

4 - Wait for the end of the firmware update process - the phone will restart automatically.

The process of installing a new firmware takes some time, then you need to conduct the first settings as when you first turn on the smartphone: Select language, network connection and acquaintance with the terms of use.

The modern world of technology is increasingly developing, and new models appear mobile deviceswhich are becoming increasingly ergonomic and powerful. Smartphones become part of our lives and become increasingly important.

Today the market is filled with models chinese manufacturers, such as Meizu phone. They have pretty good characteristics and in the future can compete with famous brands.

In order to carry out this procedure, you should first find good firmware For your model. It is very important to understand that the developers produce several basic types of updates data, which are characterized by functional and other technical parameters.

You can upload the firmware file on specialized sites or forums where you can find the necessary data. The installation procedure can be divided into several consecutive steps:

1. The first step is to copy the firmware file to the root of the phone.

2. Turn off the phone.

new version

We update by air

Update phone Meizu can be using special applicationwhich is responsible for this feature. To do this, go to it and allow it to search for new updates. It is very important to have a wireless connection so that the smartphone can load the desired files.

When the device defines the current version software updatesYou need to click the "Install Updates" button. You can also specify in the service settings the ability to synchronize and search for new versions in automatic mode.

Install updates you can manually after the program downloads all files. The data algorithm may depend on the version of your phone. If you have errors, you can find out in more detail about them on thematic forums, where there are possible solutions.

It should be understood that the quality of updates depends on the phone itself. If you install a bad firmware, you can fly the Russian language and will need to roll back or flashing. Therefore, be very careful when performing this procedure.
How to update the Meizu phone shown on video:

While everyone was waiting for the release of the new OnePlus Two smartphone, few people paid attention to 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:

At the 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 software From the "I" version, but everything rests on the fact that MEZ smartphones have a closed loader. 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.

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)
