Remember these points

Before applying the rename trick 2.0, you have to remember some main points. Global, EEA, India, Turkey, Taiwan, Russia, Japan and China ROMs are available with HyperOS updates for multiple devices. We can flash any regional ROM by this method. So first lets check some points which we have to see before applying the method.
  1. This trick works only for update, suppose you want to update to lower security patch from higher (January 2024 to December 2023), so this is now possible. If you try this, so you will get the Timestamp error in the updater.
  2. If your bootloader is locked and you want to flash China ROM, so you can easily boot it after resetting your device in the current ROM then use rename trick. But after flashing you can’t come back to Global and other regional ROMs with this trick. Even you can’t unlock the bootloader in China ROM.
