Hi, did you rooted your D838 HKG 10d phone? I've the same and towelroot doesn't work.
Did you flashed your D838 HKG 10d to e.g. Singapore firmware version? Which root tool you used?

Ok @tainka, last question:
How do you flash your D838 HKG 10d with Taiwanese firmware without root and where you get this Taiwanese 10d rom?
This is my first LG phone so sorry for noob questions.

Thanks for your answer @tainka - again . But, you see, this wasn't last questions - sorry.:crying:.
Could you share this Taiwanese kdz file? On the cloud? Will be great...
Or maybe you can provide exactly name of this file because I found one kdz file with 10d firmware but there wasn't write is this for Hong Kong, Taiwan or Singapore, so I'm scary to flash it.
Or, another question cool, how did you know that this firmware was for Taiwan not for Hong Kong or Singapore? Or maybe you can give me exactly size of this file or md5?
And again Q. When you flashed your Taiwanese firmware over Hong Kong, you are using LG Flash Tool 2014. But when I looked on the first screen of this app I found very scary me option says: CDMA (but not GSM). Why this scary me? Becoz I'm from Poland, and here we only have GSM networks, not CDMA.
My question is: did you use your flashed phone with GSM network or CDMA? Or, maybe you know that this option has no differences with flashing GSM or CDMA network and I should't scare about this?
Sorry for this investigation, but, you know, I don't want to brick my expensive phone...
Edited: 21:20, 16.11.2014.
For someone who want to know and how - I made it.
1. Bought LG G Pro 2 [16GB 838 model] with preinstalled firmware D838v10d-HKG (that's mean Hong Kong). In this software I didn't have LTE working, but I know I should because of this nice piece of hardware.
2. I tried to root my LG by towelroot from beloved @geohot, but it says - "Device not supported"
3. I dug a xda forum and realize, also thanks to answers of @tainka, that maybe, when I change my firmware, I can root my device in simple way? (bcoz is hard way and harder too).
4. So, with heart in mouth I downloaded some kdz firmwares, even didn't know for what country those was, and try to flash...
5. I used great new flashing tool which works with LG G Pro 2 too and flash D83810f_00.kdz file. Newest firmware, but I didn't know for which country it was.
6. After going flash procedure from page above (you should change language for your preferences bcoz if not, you will see Korean signs as communicates) I get phone with 10f firmware with marker D83810f-ESA-XX. AnyOne know for which country it is?
7. After flashing I realized that my Mobile Data not working. GSM/Voice coverage was ok, but connection to Internet was possible only by WiFi.
8. So, I scared and tried back to my 10d version but I didn't have my original kdz file from Hong Kong, only one from Internet, D83810d_00.kdz - this is this name. Of curse, I didn't know for which country it was too.
9. And after second flash I found that this version was for Taiwan - D83810d-TWN-XX, and 4G (LTE) is working in Poland, and, better, now I rooted my LG G Pro 2 by towelroot with one touch!
10. I almost forgot - CDMA in LG Flash Tool 2014 didn't change anything for me. I got GSM network only in my country (and about CDMA network no one heard in Poland), I used CDMA option in LG Flash Tool 2014 and after flash my mobile works in GSM network. Voila.
So, making summary:
Hong Kong version of 10d firmware not working with LTE in Poland, and can't be rooted by towelroot.
And opposite for this, Taiwanese version of 10d working with LTE in Poland and can be rooted by towelroot.
And both can be flashed on my device without scary. Now I know it [emoji14].
Last but not least: thank you @tainka for your help.
I hope this story help someone and prevent from mistakes.

I have LTE on my device, same firmware and version than yours without flashing anything.
You just have to change something on the build.prop once rooted. I read here on XDA the procedure, find out a little bit. Once done, LTE won't show on the settings menu to choose it but device will get LTE and icon on statusbar will show it.

You can try to reflash native baseband of 10d version firmware. But I can't guarantee it help you (bcoz of your country code), and of course, I'm not responsible if you brick your phone.
You can find native baseband file inside archive of Gpro2 CN V6 rom, in ,zip format, ready to flash through recovery - at least, I found it inside that file (Gpro2 CN V6.rar) - you must ask uncle Google. And I flashed it on some v10f rom, and it worked.
But, again, you will do it at your own risk.
And please, report if working!
Hi,
What is the difference between F350 & D838 ? What is the frequency for F350 ? is there a difference in performance between the 2 models?
I am from Egypt and wanted to buy the D838 from eBay but there is someone in EGYPT who want to sell the F350 so i want to know is there a difference or is it better to get the D838, there is no 4G in my Country but i think it will be available in 2015, thanks.
Any help please.
not many differences. F350 has an aerial for Korean TV and the LTE frequencies are different.
F350: 4G: 700/850/1800/2100/2600; 3G: 850/1900/2100

So for my country know we didn't have 4g yet, so i think it is safe to get the korean version for more frequencies but i do not know if i will get a problem for the updates as it is a carrier version.

I am talking about the F350 version if it will work here in EGYPT, as i do not know the frequencies for F350, so my questions
1-is it easy to update the F350 like the D838 as much as i know that F350 is a carriers version, it has Olleh or SKT logo?
2-Some sellers on eBay said that Some of function might not be used out side of Korea (DMB, MMS ETC), so anyone facing any limitations to use the F350 outside Korea?

The pro 2 is certainly more exclusive , I 've yet to see one here in egypt. The specs are very similar between the two, but lg's screen is bigger. Regarding the battery the note 3 is a little better but not by much.

Hi.
Having gone through a lot of searching, downloading etc, the phone I bought from an online shop is based in Hong Kong. I have an LG G4 H815T which I have been told by LG is derived from HK so is localised there, which means some android apps wont work here in the UK.
I flashed a rootedsystem last night successfully from the tomes of your great site and was wondering if the same could be done to flash a rom image local to a European one. At the moment I have software version V10c-HKG-xx android 5.1 but not sure if I can ever become re-nationalised as it were.
Would a flash of a Cyanogenmod do the trick or is this not possible to achieve ?
Thanks for any help.
Jubbs.

Does that mean its ARB=0?
Maybe is my kdz file is not complete? Mine software is SEA version. You can try update via LG Bridge by entering download mode.

It is possible. I also installed the V20A SEA and my H990DS ARE does not start. I downloaded the V20a TW and noticed that the file is 2.85 GB and the V20a SEA is 2.8 GB
I went back to 7.0 with LG Bridge and tonight I will try the V20a TW.
Just got it installed iam also in australia with a taiwan variant...lots to go through one thing i dont like is you cannot seem to hide the home buttons on thw home screen.
Thwy dissapering on apps booting up but not on home screen.
Ive installed on the indian variant....Ram management is pathetic...in idle its 75% used...and using cleaning apps is not letting it to clear the ram.
I would roll back to 7.0 and use it....Except for the UI, i dont find any much difference in the device performance.....
I would wait for indian update...cus JIO VOLTE stopped working in this rom
Can I flash any of these KDZs on my AME variant?

I am from IDN (Indonesian), and I am able to using the SG (Singapore) version without any hassle
Ok, I downloaded the TWN variant...and it works! Haven't done much other than boot and look at the software version, but it is there!
Does anyone know yet what will happen if the ota update is applied on a rooted device?
Like will just root be gone or also TWRP

It is multilanguage, you can change it or use whatever you want.
For instance I'm using this build in English and my sister uses it in Croatian. We did in place upgrade using Odin to keep all our data, but I'm thinking of doing full flash with Factory Reset soon.
P.S.: Using it for almost 5 days now, it is stable and don't have issues for now, need bit more testing out.

Currently it is going by regions and providers. Example is Vodafone which got it few days ago in Germany, Ireland, UK, Czehc Republic and Romania, but there is also for Baltic and Poland unbranded firmware.
Another example is GN model which got it in Vietnam with another update and F model which got update in UAE, India and Saudi Arabia.
As somewhat experienced user of Odin I flashed on my Croatia (A1/Vipnet) firmware this Poland release and for last week or so it is working perfectly, no hiccups and battery life is bit better. Plus One UI 2.0 is more optimized then One UI 1.0 that we got on Android 9.

You can check via SamMobile site where it is released, but as far I can see from link below you need to check what is your PDA or if it available to you using OTA, which might get you your firmware updated no matter of country where it is bought. I highly recommend if you are not savy with flashing firmwares using unofficial tools like Odin then wait for OTA, it will be released soon enough.

Hi, I just checked Bluetooth in my Golf Mk7 with Discover Media systems and it works fine for my usage which is streaming music and accepting phone calls. My car is from 2016, so that might help to know more. Plus I'm connected with Android Auto which works fine aswell.
