Hello,
My phone is a SM-G920F w/ 5.0.2 installed. The Baseband is G920FXXU1AOCZ build number LRX22G.G920FXXU1AOCZ . The only reason I'm asking is because I've seen others get an OTA for 5.1.1 but I haven't yet. I was wondering if I could Odin the phone to a UK variant?
The seller from the shop said it was a phone from Isreal flashed with a Region Free Firmware? but when I check the knox it was still intact. Is there any way to find out more information about the phone?
Thank you!
I have the exact same question. I have the G920F international unlocked model as well, using it on AT&T here in the USA. Phone's working great, but no update to 5.1, despite reading reports that Samsung has pushed 5.1 to the international variants. Is it because we're using the phone in the USA? Will we even get the OTA update, or will we have to update manually using ODIN?
Here you go UK ROM 5.1.1 BTU ready for you to flash:

I didn't ask the original question, so my apologies. But I was wondering if you had any advice on how I should proceed to update my device? I have the G920F that I bought unlocked off of Ebay and using it on AT&T here in the USA. It's working fine, but it says there are no updates. I don't even know if it'll even get an OTA pushed to my device since I am not in the originating region?
Should I just wait, or is it safe to go ahead and flash one of these 5.1 roms with ODIN that are for the G920F? If so, which one should I install? I think the first one available for the G920F was the France one. But now there are others. Does it matter which one I install? Or would I have to wait until a North American rom is available?
Thanks!
For reference, my build is G920FXXU1AOCV and my CSC is G920FOJV1AOBL. Not sure what those mean or how it applies to my situation?

Ita still best to stick to your working 5.0.2 ROM and wait for official 5.1.1 OTA update which should come soon. Flashing exposes you to risks like bricking your S6, tripping Knox and voiding your warranty. If can't resist the itch then flash away.

Thanks for response, I assume it's the same risks as me? I also wanted to get rid of the Israel edition and make it UK, will I hit any risks?
Risks are still the same. You can also consider flashing this Israel 5.1.1 stock ROM below:

Hey guys. I recently bought a US unlocked Sony XZP from Best Buy. I want to flash the right firmware to enable fingerprint. Take a look at the list in the screenshot. For G8142 Dual Sim, there are lots of options available. I am not sure which one is best to flash. Have any of you guys tried and if so, which firmware? Thanks

If it's available for the this model then I see no problem in doing it. If you find something not working you can flash back to the other firmware.

That should be fine if that's the firmware you prefer.
Also any particular reason or advantages that you are planning to flash that over CE1 or others on the US model?
Nothing as such I'm just trying different region firmware other than CE1
Which firmware is best for faster ota updates and with Android Pay working? I'd flashed CE1 and there's no Android Pay. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

not by default, but you can download it and it works. I use mine all of the time
Which of the firmware available is best aside from CE1? It seems to be the slowest to receive security patches :/
The Customized FR one seems to get updates pretty quickly, but the CE1 hasn't been that late recently, it was only a couple days behind this time I think. I ended up using the combination of US and CE1 because I couldn't get group messaging to work with CE1 or FR with android messages.
Which files you mix to make.this combination? If i flash a Ce1 it keep going in auto reboot.
I bought a Samsung J7 Nxt(India)/Neo(USA and Other countries)/Core(Middle East) (Model - SM-J701F/DS) from a middle eastern country and brought it to India. And the problem is that the device is enabled with Volte services but I cannot use the Volte (displaying 4g but not Volte) in here. Ive searched a couple of forums it says that the middle eastern countries are not using Volte services yet thats why my device cannot use the 'Band' (I dont know what it is) which is compatible with the Indian Bands. So please can anyone help.

I should state that I'm up in Canada, so we're using a different set of regional codes. Nevertheless the latest avialable build I see is: G965WOYV1ARC1 (I have no idea what security level this is). My carrier is still on a February security patch level with build number: G965WVLU1ARBG.

I would be very careful in attempting to load another regions firmware on your Canadian variant. There have be some users who have reported ending up with a bricked device attempting this sort of update. While you can find stock Odin files for our devices, it's still on the v1 bootloader. Not worth the pain...

Let me know if you successfully flash on your device then I'll do it as I'm from Bell mobility
I got the downloads to go through. Will report once flashing is complete. Not sure which firmware will be on the phone when it arrives (att variant) but I'm gonna be flashing u1 then newest rc6 TMobile firmware. Hoping to have full features working as if originally a TMobile variant.
On a side note (mods please excuse) but Samsung. Com has the att variant on sale $639 ($200 off) and since I'm trading in my old s7 I'm getting an additional $200 off so $439 ($466 after tax) for a brand new s9+! Once i flash the TMobile firmware I'll be happy and for $400 off!
Anyone know if i need to sim unlock before flashing this? I've read about having to flash the unlocked rom before flashing the T-Mobile Rom and that's my other question. Can i just flash this tmobile firmware to the phone fresh out of the box or do i need to go to unlocked first (doesn't seem right) and put my TMobile sim in and be good?
My thoughts were that i could just sim unlock thorough a 3rd party then Odin the TMobile firmware and be done. Thanks

You have to unlock your device first, before flashing any other firmware besides your carrier firmware. Flashing unlock firmware, will not unlock your device.

SIM unlock has nothing to do with firmware/rom flashing. You can flash to any U/U1 firmware you want and your device will still be in the same carrier lock/unlock state it was before.
T-Mobile does do things a little differently, however. Flashing a different firmware won't SIM unlock your phone, but I do believe you need to be on a legitimate T-Mobile firmware to unlock the device via their built in unlocking app.
Awesome thanks guys. Will just get a 3rd party unlock service then flash.
If you got it from [email protected] they will unlock it free of charge. And if you didn't I would still try with them first before paying
Will use it to update my converted s9 plus from att to tmobile firmware.
I tried to search for updates in the menu but it says phone is already up to date. But version is RBG.
Latest one is ARC6

Im just waiting for Rogers in Canada to push out their latest update, which they say is now available, and its not. I want to see if they have updated from U1 to U2 before taking the plunge with this firmware.
What's the benefit to having T-Mobile f/w over unlocked? Or what's better about having unlocked? I'll be using it only on T-Mobile.
Does not work with t-mobile! Sorry.
Hello!
Good news for everybody! The new LG-UP v 1.15.06 not only allows us to install Pie, but also Cross Flash between devices.
Example: I live in Europe - Romania and I wanted my language for my LG G7+ EAW. Unfortunatetly this model is for Hong Kong and does not support most of european languages. No problem with this new LGUP. I just crossflashed my LG G7+ 6Gb Ram, dual sim to LMG710 EM. Maybe I can unlock bootloader with a little help.
I also flashed 2 diffrent LG G710N korean firmwares. All working fine.
The only problem was with the Korean open firmware, not supporting sim network, but I reverted back and it worked.
Easy commands for this new LGUP v1.15.06
If using powershell from win10:
1. Install USB drivers and put G7 in download mode
2 Open powershell from C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP (shift + right mouse) and type cmd and hit enter.
3. Type this command: lgup_cmd.exe comX "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\common\LGUP_Common.dll" "(path to your kdz firmware)"
Example: (if your phone is under com5 and your kdz is located in D:\ and has this name G710NO20c.kdz)
lgup_cmd.exe com5 "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\common\LGUP_Common.dll" "D:\G710NO20c.kdz"

I found G710N20f_00_LGU_KR_OP_0308.kdz https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lRJHBqqXEIpGsV3Eyrqqnkk3lCvq2AIM from chinese forum. Test it!
dual sim on the G710N (korean version)
Hi to all,
I own a G7+ (Korean version G710N) but the dual sim service does not work (since in Korean is kind of impossible and incomprehensible to have more than a sim card.
I'd like to install the Pie for the G710EMW (dual sim).
Have you ever tried to install different firmware on your model? Have you ever get any issue? (sim not working, bootloop, etc...).
Moreover, in the LGE developer webpage (developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev), seems like is not possible to unlock the bootloader of the korean model (I also tried by adb commands but I didn't success!).
Hope to read back from you,
Thanks in advance,
Benf
I was flash G710NO20f_00_OPEN_KR_OP_0308.kdz , my 710EAW ask insert USim and no service with no IMEI but clean firmware. Again with G710N20f_00_LGU_KR_OP_0308.kdz have 1sim slot 1 to call and 2sim received.
Have any way to flash G710NO20f_00_OPEN_KR_OP_0308.kdz with G710EAW10f_00_OPEN_HK_DS_OP_1126.kdz modem partition, i'm think this way to have Korean Pie for dual sim.
