hi all. my new Mi5 just arrived and on trying to set it up, found there is no United Kingdom, Great Britain, England or anything similar as a region for me to select. i am obviously a bit unhappy about this and wondered if the phone doesn't have a genuine rom on it. it is supposed to be an International model. i have attached an image of the phone specs/details and hope someone can tell me if it is or not. if it is not, how do i go about getting an official global/international rom on to the phone that has UK as a region? i have NOT even attempted to unlock the bootloader (not particularly good with phones) but used Algiers as a region for setting it up. it is the same time zone as the United Kingdom. i would like to keep the phone but this region thing has annoyed me very much.
if i want to return it to everbuying, will i be able to do a factory reset of the phone so no details of mine are on it? how do i do that?
