I tried to install on chinese model, but i get error ''The upgrade software version installed is lower than the current usage version'' Chinese model is here on PD1805_A_1.16.5.
Where did you download it? That firmware27 page doesn't have a proper link
1.16.5 vs 1.7.14 ... No idea why you cannot flash it. I didn't try.
But hardware wise they are they same right?I asked Vivo about firmware change. They said it is not possible, if I want to have firmware from India I have to buy phone in India, phones from China can have only Chinese firmware.
Before changing to the global version, is it not better to wait return from some indian customer ?
Until now i'm pretty happy with the chinese version.
Me too after uninstalling some 20 Chinese bloatware via settings menu + 25 further via adb I’m completely satisfied with smoothness,stability and great battery life.
Don’t actually need global version as I don’t use google assistance and bloatware issue being resolved 100%

My main motivation for a global rom is to replace Jovi with Google Assistant; also would like to get rid of Vivo account altogether.
I would probably wait for the HK version though; Indian ROM might have some other localisation features I don't need.

"I totally understand your feelings. As I said previously, the phone you purchased is designed for Chinese users. Actually, we don't encourage our Vivo fans who live outside of China to purchase Chinese version phones."
Yeah i know thats how it works.
Vivo Rom is great even chinese one but i would prefer more Oxygen style
But as a said i realy like this phone that's why i'm keeping it as i found all the tips to work as i want and behaves more like a western standard OS than chinese one
I'dont even have any kind chinese app installed(completely remove them)and only theme store watching chinese staff but that's no issue at all.
All notification manage to work like a charm and really enjoying Vivo Nex(yes it has some few disadvantages more hardware relited(no wireless charging or no NFC) but hey nobady perfect right??)
Every device out there has it's own disadvantages.
The rom file downloadable in this link:
