not sure about D802 , probably not a gud idea ,
i have a sprint ls980 in india , im running 2faced rom and have rooted and unlocked it..
You'll brick your phone flashing firmware meant for another version of the phone. You can only use firmware specifically made for this device.

i want to know why the phone gets bricked when we flash some other version's firmware , is it some deep hidden hardware difference as gsmarena.com says specs are same only names are different (and possibly the firmware ).
is there a work around.
because in ideal case if hardware is same then software can be of any version.

"Specs" are the same but the actual settings/hardware used is different. VERY different. Everything is region specific and carrier specific. That is why.

Here you'll see clearer why they are so different.

so it means if we have the original kernal then other rom's can be flashed , in this case if LS980 have original kernal then D082 rom can be flashed .
Did you try it?

Did you go through with it? I have the same Q. If Only the radios are different, and i don't use cdma or lte, should t it work?
Any one tried this yet ?

The US variants wont have the multitasking bar. Can we root then flash the cooked international ROMs which provide this instead?
I've been meaning to ask this as well.
just picked up my Note 2 for T-Mobile and would like to know as well. i'm assuming yes since internally the US variants and international are the same except for the modem. i'm itchin to flash a rom on this...
i read post one thread they try flash G7100 rom over G7105 and got stuck in boot loop. You can search in general thread and find out
i specifically want to know about using a TMOB variant on AT&T
Ditto on the OP question...waiting in front of TMO US tore now and hoping to get ARHD 3.0 on this bad boy ASAP!
I sure do hope it would work...

I am sure some dev will cook something up, since all the phones have the exact same hardware (for the first time!), Can't wait...

I'm itching for root...and a port of paranoid.
Root is fine In my exp, but flashing international ROM gives you the wrong baseband and you loose cell services.

just don't flash the radio (modem). probably needs some RIL fixin' and what not. then i think these roms will work across most variants.
I believe it has something to do with isis. The rep told me that all SIMs are isis now.
To maintain security, I am guessing it has to be the TMO baseband.
I could be wrong.

that's easy. just flash the correct modem from the carrier. this is going to be fun.
Yeah, this should work just fine. Does anyone have the modem files?
I have a request into Samsung for a complete dump for recovery, but no word yet.
I flashed Omega 4.1 which had a modem in it. :/

you might be able to extract the radio out of one of those OTA updates. not sure if there is one or not.
Hi,
i do not know computers or mobile phones that well, recently i got my G3, its the korean version F400S.
i notice theres lots of bloatware , just wondering is it possible to flash to a different region stock rom like the D855 HongKong international version.
and yes i do have the 32gb version.
And if its possible, can i still get updates on the phone?
thank you
You cannot flash firmware for one model number with firmware for another model number. Any D855 software will not work on an F400 and vice versa.

Even if we are going to root the phone still cannot flash the D855 software?

I installed ROM VDT V6 on my F400K and now my software version has changed from F400K10g to F400L10g. I am afraid it might cause an issue later down the line esp in super user access. Any idea how to fix this?

Hello everyone!
I'm reading all the guides on the net but im confused.
I have a d855 vith v20a, and i want to install custom rom for remove the lag and other nice things.
BUT.
I've seen that lollipop isn't rootable so i have to Downgrade to kitkat and then use PurpleDrake, right?
And after this i have to flash with Flashify a Bumped TWRP?
I've download this file : D85510g_00.kdz. I have to flash this with LG FLASH TOOL 2014 Right?
Wich setting should i have to use with this program?
And..there isn't something like a bootloader to unlock or something?
Thank you a lot all.

It is important, to download the right firmware. Here is another site to choose from, hust to make sure its the correct one: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/
The correct settings are in the LG Flash tool thread, you don't need do divert from those.

All of them are named like that what you need to pay attention to is the prefix it has, which in your case will be either A6IT or AHIT (surprisingly with a country code at the end), depending on which version of the G3 you have.
The A6IT is for the 16gig variant, downloadable from here, and the AHIT is the 32gig variant, downloadable from here.

Yeah I know the stock software is far from perfect. I used the original vodafone for about an hour, then got fed up with the bloatware, and moved to AndroidNow, which, as of now, runs decent.

Any at&t roms work on t-mobile variant?
no they do not work.flash an att rom to an tmobile g3 and you will brick your device.the only way i believe it could work is if someone port the rom first,but i don't think is worth it since att and tmobile has pretty much the same stuff.but porting an international rom to the lg g3 tmobile thats something i would like to see soon

Older version works still but not the updated lollipop for obvious reasons. Not bad running if you are still running kitkat.

Guess if you don't read and just start flashing, yes, could be an issue. If you read before flashing you would see the faq section that says don't flash the latest on xxx devices but use the older version, exactly what I said.

Cloudy 1.2 works flawlessly & yes that new lollipop version will brick your device.
i have bought S6. Phon i bought was sm-g920p with sm-g920f rom(6.0.1). I upgraded my phone, It changed to sm-G920P usa version. My phone is now compromised. I tried lot of things. Is there any thing that can change to international device. My phone has 3g network only now.
That's because like mine, the s6 you bought is actually an S6 Sprint model (G920P) and not the international model(G920F). If i remember correctly the rom was modified with G920F baseband. I'm guessing your cell provider is using Band 3 LTE like mine. That's why u cant get LTE to work. This is link to that firmware. Its android version 6.0.1. But i cant remember if you need to flash by odin or twrp. You can check the zip after you've downloaded.

My phone is now 7.0 Nougat
Is it ok to install this rom. btw is my device no longer compromised? i didmt root this phone, but samsung internet says your phone is rooted??
I have the very same device although I didn't nothing yet..
i found another website with a rom to convert to G920F. Tried on my phone. it was successful. now my G920P can get 4G band 3. If you are brave enough and know what you are doing, then you can try. But still, its marshmallow (6.0).
https://tricksdoctor.com/samsung-galaxy-s6-g920p-convert-g920f/
You sure you are getting lte with your G925P ? as I know the G925P doesn't have the hardware support to receive the band 3 (1800mhz)...it supports other lte bands like band 4,5,12 etc.
Changing G920P to G920F can fix Hotspot option to show on settings?
Plz help me i need this rom for g920p convert to g920f fix rom this rom UAE

Sorry. What you meaning use mini space rom?
just thought i should update everyone. i did a bit of digging. and guest what, i think the convert rom are all fake. Even the one i use is actually a modded g920P modem. the 4g signal is actually just a system ui mod. Just out of curiosity i contacted 1 of the converted rom seller out there in the internet. and he admit that its actually just a rom with modded system ui that will show h+ signal icon as 4g. it wont actually allow you to use band 3 lte.
