Hey guys, i bought the Korean version of the V50 Thinq, what im wondering is can I flash another firmware, specifically the australian version, over to get rid of the Korean options and bloat? Im assuming if you can, that the dual screen will still work? As there is an Australian version of the phone with the attachment. And ideas?
Now, there is no suitable dll file for V50 to flash KDZ using LG UP.

Hi there,
I just bough an LG Flex 2 (H955), but the phone is Vodafone branded, thus the firmware is a little behind (still has V10c).
I tried to flash a North European version 10e, but the firmware did not change, although no errors showed up during the process (except a server error but the process continued). I tried to flash using LG FlashTool 2014.
What am I doing wrong?
The phone is running on Polish Orange network, on the box I found that is is a H955 VFD2 variant (whatever that means?).
New firmware wont help. Its piece of **** and nothing will fix it. I wish I never bought it.

It is normal.
The branded phones always indicate a less version, but this is the same version of software.
normal --- branded
V10c --- V10b
V10d --- V10c

Ok, but can I actually debrand the phone in any way?
Is there actually a point to do this? Will I get the software updates faster?

You can delete programs/start screen of Vodafone, but no the version. (system/op directory? I not sure. backup!!!)
When LG launched an upgrade, you upgrade with LG FlashTool 2014 and you do not have any problems with OTA
I assume I have to wait for a Vodafone firmware to be released?
I tried to flash one of the firmwares from the first post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/official-lg-h955-phone-firmware-t3090920
The process went fine, but the firmware did not change. Can there be a lock of sorts in place?

Sorry, I did not read well the versions.
I followed these instructions with the version V10E (NORTHERN EUROPE Edition) as shown in the phone as V10D. My phone is Orange Spain. You don´t need wait to Vodafone version.

Sorry. I do not know what to say. it sucks
I acquired a lg v50 (LG V500n) recently and it came with this version (u + 5g), at boot time this name appears, I was wondering if I can switch to the OPEN version, belonging to the lg v500n from korea.
From what I get reading threads on XDA, crossflashing even within the same region is blocked by LGUP. Of course I would be very happy if someone would correct me as I also own a Korean model with SKT and would like to get rid of the annoying boot screen as well as the bloat.

What I understand is that you need to be in Korea or use a vpn to receive the updates, you can still find them to install from Lgup
if i install any android 10 FW in LG UP (open or branded) it won't boot, I installed hola vpn but it doesnt find any ota so i´m in last fw of android 9....
send me files (lg up, configs and dll)

Hi all.
I just bought this from eBay
It has some SK telekom FW installed, and it is annoying, almost unusable
Can anyone tell me if I can flash european FW on this? And how to, if yes?
BW: G970NKOU5EUA4
Thanks

its a Exynos chipset, you should be able to flash any euro firmware on it
You say that is safe to flash FW for G970F ?
I assume still ODIN is the way to go
Thanks
SK Telekom? Are you sure it's not the Korean Variant SM-G970N?
SK Telekom is a Korean Cellular Operator.
In any case you can flash any firmware you want as long as it's made for your model (SM-G97XX) however in order to change the CSC you might need to root the phone and use the CSC Change Tool because flashing firmware does not guarantee change of CSC.

G970N is the Korean variant, you need to install KOO Rom, you can download from Sammobile however if the SK Telekom won't disappear, ease read my last post.
I bought an used lg g4 H815 with someone. After sometimes I realised that it stucks and does bootloops. Then I decide to flash it according to websites which host firmwares for downloads. But, after that, It says "current version is not available for user. Cant find matched cust for NT-code mcc, mcc, subset". Now the network doesnt work on it. I'm a newbie and in spite of my reasearch I cant do anything to solve it. I flashed an european rom, android 5.1 according to my model. The first time I flashed it, in download mode I saw there were only words written in Korean.
Please I need your help. Dont ignore!
