No Google apps in L39h?

[RuBuS]

I need help regarding my Xperia Z1 which I just bought today. It's L39H and I see so many apps with chinese or Japanese written on it. The biggest problem, I can't see any google apps, no playstore, no Gmail, no Facebook, no nothing. Just some of the Sony apps and some chinese apps. What do I do now? I need to download so many stuff but there is no Playstore plus no Gmail to log in. Please help.

Seems you have the Chinese version. You have three options. 1) live with it 2) side load the apps 3) flash firmware from a different region.

I've told you this in a Pm and explained with links how to do it but guess you took no notice

Update: Problem solved, I contacted my dealer and he replaced that phone with C6903. It's all good now, everything is working fine on the other phone Thanks for the help BTW
