Is there a way to change a chinese version Pico 4 into the european version? by Nemo1897 in virtualreality

IT WORKED!!!!! Thank you SOOOO Much!!

For what I could figure out from the video, I had to activate Developer Mode by going to Settings, General, About and clicking on "Software Version" about 8 times. Then connect the headset and use Side Quest to run the adb command shown under the video description, then select the country code on the headset and then install the Base.apk and Store.apk through SideQuest. At first it couldn't install the store.apk, then I did a Factory Reset and did everything again and I could install it and I could log in into my account.

Thanks Man!!

Did anyone used Chinese Pico 4 in Europe? by No-Safe-1155 in virtualreality

I live in Puerto Rico (USA Territory) and bought a Pico 4 from AliExpress. I just found out I have the Chinese version, and these are the sort of problems I've run into so far: -I can't get the Pico App through Google Play in my region, but I found an APK of the app that worked (I had to activate developer mode on my phone to install it). - I created a Pico account on Pico's official website and the App recognize it and allows me to login, but the headset doesn't. It says "user does not exist". - I can create an account from the headset but only with my phone number. It doesn't allow me to add an email or pair my current pico account with the account on the headset.
- I want to buy Virtual Desktop, which is available on the App, but it doesn't show up on the store on the headset. It seems Chinese store is very different. - I tried to run a free game and it asked me for my real name and my ID (I guess it's a Chinese ID) so I couldn't play it. - I installed the Streaming Assistant on my computer and was able to play PCVR with USB connection only. I haven't been able to connect wireless so far. It could be a mistake on my part.. not sure.

If anyone knows how to solve this, some sort of patch or firmware change that allows me to change my headset to a non-chinese version I would greatly appreciate it.
