Good video congratulations, I am thinking of buying the tencent version because it is cheaper, but if I move to the global rom is it safe? and I have all 100% phonational features? and am I able to use the SIM card?

Hello dear Bobby. I got my Rog 5 from Etoren and it came already flashed.. I download the latest firmware then i restart the phone but it does not see an available update.. What should i do? I can always send photos or videos to help you assist!
Depends what you refer to as base model. The base model rog 5 (non ultimate/pro) comes in tencent (chinese)and non tencent (global)version. the base (global) model already has the global firmware. only the tencent has the CN (Chinese) firmware.

Hi Bobby, I live in Italy I am already a happy owner of Rog Phone 2 12 / 512gb Global version with Rom global and I would also like to buy the new Rog Phone 5 12 / 256gb white.

I want to ask you what is the procedure to update this device with Rom different from the original? Thanks in advance for your availability and cooperation. Sincerely .
If it's a tencent version with global firmware only manual updates can be done. Though it's pretty easy. Just download the update file and save to internal memory and restart. That's it. If it's still on CN software auto updates will work
