Newbie ? I'm sure... - Nokia Lumia 1020

Ok so I would like an unbranded ROM for my 1020 but when I put in my product code etc the only ROM I find is the standard one from my carrier, so how does one install an unbranded ROM and how do you know which one to use as they all seem linked to carriers? thanks

All is explicated.

thanks but when I put in my product code I only see the standard ROM from my carrier, how do I get a 'naked' ROM?

[Q] Am i doing this correctly?

Hi i have a HD7 which somehow itgot relocked out of the blue and i can't unlock it because my bootloader version is 5.11.2250!
I saw this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411904
I know I'm quite annoying with questions but i don't know how to find a stock rom from europe!All i want is to flash a DFT custom rom on it after i'm done with this process. Ty much will be appreciated
I found a link here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_HD7/Shipped_Roms
OS:7.10.8107.79
Radio:5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U
BootLoader=5.11.2250.0
Bought from Hong Kong
Can i flash a europe rom onto my asia bought HTC HD7? will it work the same but with different region rom?
Can i pick any of the Europe ones with boot loader below 4.xx? eg
Operator/ ROM / Model / OS / Firmware / Radio Software / Bootloader (SPL)
Europe/ 1.16.401.01 / HTC HD7 T9292 / 7.0.7004.0 / 2250.09.11601.401 / 5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U / 1.16.2250.0(110866)
Also i live in New Zealand and my Phone operator is Vodafone , if i flash a europe rom am i still allowed to use vodafone's services?
If my flashing is successful how do i install DFT custom roms on it and make it mango 7.0.8107 with interop unlock as well?
see the tutorial i wrote. first link in my signature.

you bought your device from/in HK, which would most likely make it have Asia branding. in which case, ansar's SLSPL will not work because it is for Europe only.

My official sgh-m919v thread about rooting and backup.

I'm Just sharing with people that got this phone and doesn't know where to look for useful information's.

I don't understand why this thread is in the AT&T forum, but anyway as to your question, go to either http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ (you have to register to download) and enter SGH-M919 in the search box or go to http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-M919 and download the firmware for your phone. This is version M919UVUAMDL which should be the pre-ota version. Flash with Odin.

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Not the same number as what? I understood @ferlogan wanted to downgrade to original firmware so he can use the motochopper root method.
The firmware I linked is taken right off of the Samsung Kies servers, and since the phones are so new, it will be the original firmware that is on the phone when the phone comes out of the box. I don't have your phone, or carrier, as I'm still on SGH-I777 and AT&T. But you should be able to verify in the T-Mo forum that the version number is the same as the original firmware. The version number for the ota update will be slightly different.
I think he mean to say that the number you put is for SGH M919 (T-mobile version) and we are on canadian Videotron or wind which is SGH-M919V and doing *#1234# give a different version M919VV....
I am also in same boat I want to know which firmware to downlaod to downgrade in order to Root my videotron canadian version, I don't want to brick my phone.

yeah i was able to bring it back to original state with the official rom and it even show offical rom in the odin menu now. the only problem i got now is, when i connect kit to wireless network, my speedtest is around .3Mbps and .34 for the upload.
The rom i used is the one available in sammobile and it not exactly the same number as before. Even with Skies it upgraded to this version and it so slow on my network now.

how did you brick it?
I too have a SGH-M919V, mine is with Wind Mobile and I just recently got it.
I am assuming there are no stable or compatible roms with this model yet? I want to try rooting it how you did it and then I suppose wait for a stable rom. I'm anxious that our model isn't on sammobile.. yet.
Just curious, is yours also with Wind Mobile? my AP, CP, and CSC came up with the same numbers.
I wish there was more information and light on this particular model, thank you for having this thread.

How To flash N920P with international firmware version?

Hmm not sure about the theme store but you don't need to use an international rom. You can use a Sprint rom. Although all Note 5's are essentially the same (there might be some variants with differences), the kernel might be different for each. I would stick with the Sprint rom. Maybe try some of the roms posted in the development section to see if the theme store would work on those roms.

nope. i have flashed "sprint" custom rom!
Thing about sprint is...it has its own network. So unlocking it is not the same as tmobile and other networks. Example 1, sprint unlocked only works on sprinit network and other networks by sprint. Example 2, any other company, tmobile, verizion, unlocked can work with a different sim card, internationally. If you put a different sim card in the sprint phone it wont work for some reason, but any nonesprint phone it does if unlocked
This is not true. The N920P can be unlocked and used on domestic GSM carriers. I'm currently using the N920P on straight talk (ATT) with LTE on stock/rooted rom.

How you did it?
I used idoneapps for the unlock (works great, kudos to those guys) .You will have to make NV changes for LTE (directions are on this site). You also need two APN's (one with LTE as bearer). Network Mode needs to be GSM/WCDMA/LTE. Handcent with manual APN for MMS keeps from having to reboot nearly everytime you receive an MMS as well.
---------- Post added at 09:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------
NV edits can be found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56577252&postcount=455 . You do not need the storage patch for this device, obviously.

[Q] SM-R765A - Is there any way to change the phone number that it shows?

Hi guys, pretty much straight forward question... I have the S3 SM-R765A (LTE). I don't leave in the US... so basically i cannot use the LTE functionality as in Brazil the operators still does not have implemented eSim to the network.
However, i would like to change the phone number that it shows at "About device".
Is it possible?
Thanks
If you have not been able to activate the eSim how does it even show a number?
The first owner did activate it.

what is the point of unlocking the device? the OP is about changing the eSIM ICCID/existing phone number associated with the device. How can this be done? It does not seem to be actually related to an unlocked device which just lets it work on another carrier.

For this kind of adventure... research... SM-R765S SM-R765L SM-R765K from Korea is wrongest choice...
No Combination Firmware nor normal Stock Firmware...

About eSIM hacking I found only iPhone info... from Chinese users...

G955FXXU1AQH3 unlocked, bloatware grabage problem.

Hey fella's, and ladies. I just got my G955F, bought inside of the US off of the same person I usually go through. Turns out It's a UK model that came with Vodafone bloatware and shows 4G instead of LTE (even though it IS LTE). Is there a US variant? And if so can I flash the phone with any G955F variant software using odin? So I guess I'm asking, what is the best, and purest firmware if I am in the US. I have T-Mobile and I'm in Cali. Thanks ahead. (Sorry, but I posted this in the S8 section originally, like a dumb-dumb)
Also, could I flash with G955U unlocked firmware?
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?exact=1&q=SM-G955F
Here you can download the US ROM and use Odin to flash - these are official ROM's so Knox will not be tripped
NO
You CANNOT flash a G955U rom to a G955F device
It will definately soft brick or even hard brick your device
You can flash this rom ( https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955F/EUR/download/G955FXXU1AQH3/184528/ )
No bloatware, multilang and fast updates.

Do you know the difference between the G955U & G955F?
If you did, than you would have known the answer!!!

He has a G955F phone with a UK ROM on it... he wants a US ROM so the link takes him to the US ROMS for a G995F phone
I didnt answer the last bit about the G955U as I only just saw that - and just to clarfiy the G955U is the Snapdragon version so no, a Exynos ROM will not work

You CANNOT flash a G955U rom to a G955F device
It will definately soft brick or even hard brick your device
You can flash this rom ( https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955F/EUR/download/G955FXXU1AQH3/184528/ )
No bloatware, multilang and fast updates.

This will be great if I can't find a US variant.

Got it. Couldn't find any US firmware on that page. Part of my question about the US firmware, or multilang firmware comes from the fact that Walmart sells G955F's. I would imagine whatever firmware is on there would be what I would want. Just don't know what that is.
-Thanks for all the replies so far. If I can't figure out what firmware comes on the US Walmart G955F phone, I suppose I will go with the variant listed above.
-Also, will VoLTE work on the multilang rom? Or is there a rom that works with T-Mobile and VoLTE? And if anyone is wondering, I wanted to Exynos variant, that's why I didn't buy G955U.

Well, I went ahead and used this firmware. Really like it, no problems at all and its exactly what you said it would be (hopefully its got great support as well). Appreciate the direction. Thank you.
If anyone finds out what comes on the US released (Walmart) G955F, I would really like to know. I've been searching and searching, and can't seem to figure it out.

No problem. Im sure that you will like it even more
If you can, please share a pic from the device info to see which CSC do you have
Hi guys, I've just got a G955F as an upgrade from Vodafone UK with lots of their bloatware. Can I flash any other firmware over it without tripping Knox or invalidating the warranty? I'm in the UK btw.
