Hi,

I ordered a Xiaomi 14 from China and which it will be delivered in next month, but i found out that there is no possible way to unlock the boot loader like I used to do it in MIUI era, unless I got lucky to be selected in Mi Community lottery or pay few hundred CNY for the unlock services. But there is an alternate way that i can side load Google Play in the phone because Google actually, build in their services inside HyperOS China ROM!. I just found out here in the listed supported devices: https://storage.googleapis.com/play_public/supported_devices.html

After all, my daily apps, WhatsApp, Maps, banking apps, ewallets, Android Auto... all works and updated in China phone.
 
I'm not sure what you are saying here, I suspect Houji in the list is the global phone so yes, the global phone will have everything working.

You can use Google services on almost any CN device. This is really nothing new. You can do it for a while, but it's not long-term. Why use CN ROM when there is the eu.ROM?
