So I received my device yesterday. It's already unlocked with global rom. So I tried rooting it and it works. Today I tried to install the CN rom.. What I did is flash the CN rom, re-locked the bootloader to receive update, updated to newest ZUI version then tried to unlock again to the bootloader to root it. Turns out, u need to flash an image file which u need to request from Lenovo using this website https://www.zui.com/iunlock. But for some reason, it won't accept my IMEI1 numbers.. yikes. Any idea guys?

Aitolu, 20 Dec 2019Oh well... Guess I'll continue my search.IF U buy a phone with unlock bootloader ( when u turn on phone, first thing will show to u under powered by android name its unlock word)
with this situation
if u r not interest to root the device & other things
someday if u faced with hardaware problem, lenovo center will not fix ur phone, never ( of course if u have lenovo center in ur neighborhood or in ur city) otherwise doesnt matter
bcuz lenovo devices, if unlock them u cant back them to lock mode
anyway...its so much better to buy new phone with LOCK BOOTLOADER

Aitolu, 20 Dec 2019Oh well... Guess I'll continue my search.just stick with the stock rom there are tutorials provided on how to flash it back to the stock rom and relock the bootloader to get system updates. I bought this unit and so far the performance is very smooth, the only problem would be the 3350 mah batt, but it supports fast charging so welp easy deal.

I was mind blown when I saw the price for this device on AliExpress... I mean $200+ish SD855 phone. NO F*CKING WAY (I'm sorry guys). But I have doubts concerning softwares. I've read through some articles in the past and Lenovo don't provide software OTA updates regularly for their mobile devices. I wish it was Android One tho, and a real global ROM. I'm considering getting this or Redmi Note Pro, I'm a gamer the socs and connectivity matter a lot to me. You guys using it (with the Chinese ROM) how's your experience? Please be genuine!

Seira, 16 Dec 2019I bought this phone last week.. expecting it to arrive this... moreno custom rom for lenovo at all in global
u know for example lenovo made motorola one power for global
& also made motorola p30 note (rebranded) for chinese.
people who buy p30 note will use rom of one power & will install it manually.
z5 pro gt doesn't have rebranded for global
so a group or some one made global rom for it(not official) just unlock bootloader & translate 50, 70 or 80 percent of other languages & of course with other lags
so just buy it with this condition from seller
lock bootloader & china stock rom

Anonymous, 15 Dec 2019the phone already have ZUI 11
just flash CHINA original ... moreeven in lenovo z6
bcuz it made for chinese market
sellers to sell it with global rom tag
they unlock bootloader to install global
after install u will faced with these problems
GPS does not work, satellites do not get caught at all, location only depends on local networks, no ota update at all
use lenovo devices that made for chinese market only with china ROM
bcuz with unlock bootloader u will lose some functions even nfc will not work or will not work well, ota will stop

Maxxed, 03 Dec 2019Lenovo should update this phone to ZUi 11 immediately &... morethe phone already have ZUI 11
just flash CHINA original rom with ZUI 10 & will Works well & then update it to ZUI 11.
one advise
don't buy phone with Global Rom
bcuz the seller will unlock bootloader to install it
if you wanna have good exprience with Global Rom
you must buy Global pack of lenovo brand
like lenovo z6 lite, people buy it with global rom but its wrong, bcuz its not original & have lags
the global pack of z6 lite its lenovo k10 note, without any lag in Rom
unfortunatly z5 pro gt, doesn't have Global pack
so just buy it with orginal china rom without unlock bootloader
bcuz you will get OTA update normally

I got mine from AliExpress too. Good phone, good price, but I am not receiving any notifications with the Global ROM installed on it. Does anybody know if the original Chinese ROM has the same problem?
