[LG LEON] Can I update my phone firmware properly? - Android General

My mobile is an LG Leon H326TV. Unfortunatelly, LG sent updates just till Android 5.1.1 and I'd like to enjoy at least the Android 6.0.
There are 3 or 4 models and I've read there is an update for Android 6.0 for one of them (don't know exactly which of them) : pocketnow.com/2016/12/08/t-mobile-lg-leon-android-marshmallow-update
My questions are:
1 - Can I update it?
2 - If I can't update, can I use a non-stock ROM? If yes, which would be the best?
Thank you all in advance.

[Q] Android 5.0 Lollipop Release?

Hello.
I wanted to know, if Google posted yesterday release version of Lollipop https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/+/lollipop-release is it possible now to flash Nexus 5 with the same image which will be sent OTA? Are there any of completely original images at the moment, without derivatives and ports from other devices/versions?
Thank you.

[Completed] Lenovo A7000 update from Lollipop 5.0 to 5.1

A couple of hours ago, I downgraded my Lenovo A7000-a From Android Marshmallow ( can't remember what version it was cause it was hell of a **** ) to Lollipop stock Android version 5.0, Baseband version( A7000.ROW.V15,2015/11/27 ), Build number ( A7000-a_s153_151127_ROW ) as described in the ( Device information ). The reason for that is that Marshmallow is a **** garbage and made my phone ****, laggy and the UI was full of bugs. When I bought my phone out of the box was Lollipop 5.0 and I got update from Lenovo in the system update to 5.1 Lollipop - Before the Marshmallow was officially released in the system update - and just until the official update for Marshmallow came out, and I wish I had not updated it.
I used the SP Flashtool and the version found on this Link : https://cloud.mail.ru/public/HiQB/FY5XGcn89 . Everything went fine and I was able to downgrade to 5.0. The thing is, I want to update to 5.1 ( the most stable version, and avoid the ****ing Vibe **** UI ) and the update I have in the system update of the device is directly to the **** Marshmallow and of course I want to avoid that at any cost. I have some questions about that : Will I be doing the same process ( with the SP Flashtool ) to update to 5.1, hence it is no more available in the system updates ?. and I'm not an Android geek so I do not where to find the Lollipop version 5.1 ( it is not mentioned the Lollipop version it just states like that : A7000-a_S152_150917_ROW_TO_A7000-a_S153_151127_ROW_WC1E.zip ) on this website in the OTA section : https://boycracked.com/2016/03/07/official-lenovo-a7000-stock-rom/ .
So where to find the most stable version of Lollipop 5.1 ( without the **** Vibe UI ) for Lenovo A7000-a ? and How to properly update my device from the current version 5.0 Lollipop to 5.1 Lollipop ( without loosing applications and of course without ****ing up my phone and losing it forever ), if I'm going to use the SP Flashtool ?
PS, I want to do this update because Lollipop 5.1 felt more intuitive, Not that Lollipop is bad in any way - oh God Marshmallow was the only and most ****ed up experience - , but 5.1 felt better for me.
Thank you in advance for your help

Some question about flashing a ROM for my Samsung (newb here)

So I have the Galaxy S5 SM G900F, running Android 5.0 , no more software update for this device, well at least in my country.
It has become very laggy, many apps crashes such as Spotify and Snapshat and it just sucks overall. I'm planning on installing the 6.0 marshmallow ROM following the steps from this thread hoping it'll fix the problem. https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...m-official-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-t3319376
1- Does it matter which country I should download the firmware on sammobile? Because in Lebanon, there's only the 4.4.2 version, even thought I have the 5.0
2-In the thread, the OP said " flash stock Android 5.0 Lollipop firmware first before upgrading to Android 6.x.x Marshmallow firmware to avoid any issues." What does he mean? To do a backup of my existing firmware? If so how should I do that?
3- Would my data such as pictures, contacts, apps be affected?
Bump
Anyone?

Updating old S7 To latest stable version

Hi
I Received some old S7-930F Device.
Currently it is Rooted with custom SuperMan ROM, Running over Android 8.0.0.
Basically, I want to make sure phone is up-to-date as "much as possible" in terms of:
1. Is there any android update newer than Android 8, which is stable, for Galaxy S7?
I know there's beta by lineage based on Android 10, but looking for only stable version.
If there is - Can someone please share some guide / thread with updating instructions?
2. Is there any update to baseband version?
Currently the phone runs with G930FXXU2ERG2
If there is - where can I get it, and how to install it?
Much appreciated
Thanks
No theres not sorry

Last version of S7 firmware is FXXS6ESGD, get it of sam mobile or Samfirm tool. There's some good roms based on that, de bloated that run really well.

Will anyone have Android Pie ROM for my device?

Hi, I have a LG X Power device model K220, its Stock ROM is Android 6.0.1 and since some important Apps for me no longer work for that version, I have been looking everywhere for modified ROMS from at least Android 8 or 9 onwards, but I do not get anything, I already checked the compatible devices for Lineage, Resurrection RMX, among others and nothing, if anyone has the knowledge of any modified ROM for LG K220 that is Android 8 or 9 onwards it would be of great help to me
