I don't know for sure but think there is no actual difference. I've unlocked my bootloader and rooted being on latest 1CUA3 (11 Android) TGY without any issues. Then flashed 10 Android just to check some things and then flashed 11 Android back. Why do you want to use 10 android firmware? Want to stay on that version after root?

Yes currently on Android 10 and want to stay on it.
Will uogrwde once all bugs have been smoothed out.
Kinda like Android 10 stability and battery life
I got it. Then I would take the latest upload just in case. By the way, what's the name of app you use for this? I'm usually downloading to my PC using Frija app for Windows.

I am interested on this as well.
Interested too.
And of course, also interested in 4.4.2 if available.
I'm interested as well. Need stock SL.en.EU version, preferably 14.91.11, but older ones are also good. We need a method to extract stock firmwares.
Please, consider all you people asking in the Firmware Team forums, both for method and new uploads on sbf.droid-developers.org

Hey guys,
I have a big problem with my Mate 8. My build number was NXT-L29 C636 B170 and I never got any updates, because I was using this asian build with a european SIM-card. Because of these annoying notification bugs B170 has and because I was about to factory reset my phone I thought about updating it manually.
Tried to understand how all this works and started to do a small OTA update first to test if it's that easy. With the B180 from the screenshot of FF below I easily managed to update my phone.
What I tried next is to go to Android 7.0, so I used the selected blue FullOTA-MF-PV. My phone updated successfully and works really smooth, but now I see "NRD90M test-keys" as build number. I read a lot of bad things about this version because it seems to be a really early and bugged beta version and thats not what I need. I already wanted to try a factory reset but also read that you should completely avoid doing that.
I want to go back before anything unsuspected happens to my phone. My updater has gone, so I cannot install anything else. Can anyone explain for a newbie how to get back to my previous build?
Was it wrong to use the PV version?
What I want to reach then is an updated version of my phone software as a stable version.
Hope anyone can save my phone
Thanks in advance

I have this phone known as an i13 Plus. System information states its an Alps i13 Plus. It has Android 8.1 but would like to upgrade it to 9 or more. I dont know if this is phone is known as any other makes or if it can be upgraded at all. Screen shots included.
What I cant work out is that the phone information in settings states that it is running Android 8.1 Oreo. Hitting that repeatedly brings up the oreo cookie pic. However, Device Info HW is stating that it is Android 4.4.2 so Im a bit confused!
Update: Phone is running Android 8.1 but is running a system UI of Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat!

IMO basically every phone's Android can get upgraded ( keyword: Custom ROM). Of course a matching Custom Recovery ( like TWRP ) must get flashed before.

Trouble is I do not know what brand this phone is. Alps does not come up under any of the phone listings in the TWRP site. I have also looked under Welcome brand. Can not find anything.
That's your cheap Chinese low-end phone

IMO you shouldn't waste your time trying to upgrade it.
Id like to try.. it was free after all. LOL

So i suspecting my ota update not working so ive done some search.
IMEI info shows my phone region is CCT.
But service provider software version shows SAOMC_SM_G996U_OYN_GCF_RR_0010 GCF/GCF/XXA
Which tells the phone CSC is XXA right?
But from website https://samfw.com, firmware for CSC: XXA is for model SM-G996U1.
So the question is, since my current software version from the CSC: CCT list in the website, if I update to latest firmware for CSC: CCT, will it relock my phone?
Or should I choose the firmware for CSC: XXA? Thanks in advance.
If it's running well... I wouldn't update anything.
Updates tend to break things.
It's the first apk I package disable.
Many apps including system ones I leave at their factory load versions particularly Gmail and Gmaps. Playstore will need updating eventually or it will fail.
Two months ago the forced Wearables update screwed up my Buds+ sound bad. That was a pain to fix... now Wearables updates are firewall blocked.
Be careful what you wish for

There are Russian websites that have obscure firmware for cloned devices. Use a translator and post in those forums to get help finding a firmware that will work or can be made to work on your device. Cloned devices don't really have true support here at XDA, most users here focus on flagship and upper tier mid ranged devices.
There may also be a way for you to install a Linux or Ubuntu OS on the device to replace the stock firmware.
You need to see about opening the device to verify what motherboard and CPU series it actually has because you can't always trust that the installed software is showing the correct information.
@manlgonzlz92 hello OP, I have removed your first picture as it contains your device IMEI.
You can read further: https://security.stackexchange.com/...k-of-leaking-imei-imsi-numbers-over-a-network
I am also looking for a firmware that can be used with this model, as the device is relatively ok build but the original firmware is full of bugs
