I believe the only difference is d821 is for international carriers and d820 is for US carriers only. I don't think it matters which model you use for the rom.
Edit: I would check with the rom developer and see which model is compatible with model.

Absolutely no difference between a D820 and a D821 except the LTE bands they access. They share the same firmware.
There is a thread in the General section for activating one or two specific bands which aren't officially supported, but only do it if absolutely necessary.
Can u link ?
I have d820 and i need to access 1800mhz LTE

[Q] LMY47D or LMY47I

Hey guys, quick question.
In this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/ref-nexus-5-stock-ota-urls-t2475327 it says "Current firmware: Android Android 5.1, Build LMY47D or LMY47I, depending on country.".
What's this depending on country? What countries have what versions?
In this site http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-5/hammerhead/ it says "LMY47I was only released to LGD821 devices with SIM cards from certain countries and carriers.".
My question is what phones should install what versions?
The D820 is the North American version, and the D821 is the Rest of the World version right?
Thanks for your attention. :good:

Either should be fine. Everything in the D821 is the same as the D820 with the exception of which radio bands they can access.

OK. So, even the D820 can install the 47I version? I thought that the software was different because it has to "control" different bands.
Thanks for your answer! :good:
D820 and D821 are nearly the "same" devices but sold in different regions ( The only difference is the supported bands ).

So the software that controls the bands is the same although they are different?

Yes. The same applies for bootloaders, radios, kernels...

OK. Thanks. I always thought the software would be slightly different on the two phones because of the different bands.

Mexico and USA model

I'm from Mexico and I have FRD-L04 model. It's supposed to be the USA model, but the firmware (in compilation) says: FRD-L04MEXC567B121. The USA model says: : FRD-L04C567B122 (without Mex and with 122)
I have read but I don't find anything about the differences or if they are the same. I hope you can help me because all about Roms and updated talk about the USA model.
MEX is for mexico, it is normal
As long as your device works perfectly in your region and you can get LTE/4G reception you should be good.
the version numbers are similar so there wont be much if anything changed between the two

SM-G930V or SM-G930P ?

Hello, I bought S7 in internet. It was sold to me as Verizon version (SM-G930V). Actual software (G930VVRU2APB5) means that it's Verizon version indeed, but IMEI check shows that it's Sprint version (SM-G930P)... So I have few questions about this situation:
1. Is it bad that box and phone says that it's Verizon but IMEI says that it's Sprint? What may it cause in future? Or maybe phone is not original? Download mode works and Antutu checked confirms that it's original...
2. I wanted to upgrade my soft but how to do that? Update function shows me error while downloading so I wanted to do it via Odin but again - which version should I download? The latest from Verizon or Sprint?...
3. I live in Europe - will this phone work in our network? I mean 4G etc
My 930P has been flashed with 930V, 930A, 930T1,and 930U firmware all snapdragons are universal in that they can be flashed with all other USA carriers firmware

930U is unlocked and debloated firmware but gets updated less frequently. The rest is really up to you on which bloat you prefer. If you are wanting to root I'd suggest 930V

Honor 8 - FRD-L02C432 < India & Europe ?!?!

Hello everybody. I am from Europe (Bulgaria) and I am going to buy Huawei Honor 8. I found a guy who bought Honor 8 from his mobile vendor (Telenor if it matters) and now he is selling it but the strange thing is that the model of his phone is actually for India. FRD-L02C432. I know it sounds strange because the phone model is for India (L02) but the build number is for the European region (C432). Do you think it is a good idea to buy this phone? I need a suggestion.
PS: Another bulgarian person bought Honor 8 from Telenor BG and he also got L02C432 and he is stuck to Android MM.
Is there Nougat update for this specific model?
LXX in Huawei does not specify regions, it does specify the number of production series. L02 would mean it was in the second batch produced, nothing to worry about.

There is no logic in your words. So L19 which is the european model with 64 gigs means it is the 19th batch produced, isnt it?

You asked, I answered. Sorry, you don't like it. Ask Huawei directly if they even care to answer your adolescent question buddy.
L02 definitely does not stand for "For India ONLY", that's for sure.

Well, sorry then. Be happy.
Pretty sure it is for region not batch number and I have yet to see anything else.
There seem to be only assumptions about this though, as far as I know.

LXX is indication for the number and kinds of bands the phone supports. It might be region-related but not necessarily. https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...nor-8-standard-edition-dual-sim-lte-a-frd-l09
That would definitely add to the confusion. I'm assuming C432 is the region code then. That doesn't make sense then though since the supported bands differ depending on region only.
Well i guess they do lol.
Huawei isn't exactly very straight-forward in their naming process.

Here you have the specs for L02.
Your Firmware is European.
Note:
1. L02 has nothing to do with India. Yes it's the only selled Honor 8 in India but has nothing to do with the country. It's because the frequencys of the signals is compatible in india.
2. Your device COULD be debranded. Check online with your serial number if it is a L02. (Maybe there's a webpage that does that)

I found a B380 FullOTA update for the L02C432 in the Firmware Finder app. I am not sure if it works, though. I have my phone from carrier in Slovakia.I hope the update comes soon officialy.
