This is my very first time actually owning a device with that many Versions, in the past I've only rooted Nexus devices which is easy and straight forward.
I currently own a LG-H815; Main Software Version: V10e-OPT2-HQ; Software Version: V10d-EUR-XX
So do I have a h815 10e or 10d?
Do I have to go from a h815 10e/d to the EXACT same pre rooted image or can I use pretty much every h815 10abcdef Image?
I am sorry if this has been asked before, but the search function seems to not work atm.
Thanks in advance

Hello evryone! I've just bought an unlocked LG Optimus G Pro. This phone is the AT&T version, but since it's unlocked, and i use it in europe, there are lot of useless apps in it, and it doesn't contains the language of my country (Hungary). I want to change the android for the version what the factory unlocked phone has. Can anyone help me? I've already found a link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2438088 but i'm not sure that this is what i'm looking for.

You can flash this kdz file at: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+Optimus+G+Pro/Stock/Panama+E980H/
Thank you! I have some other questions too.
Thank you very much! So this is the international version for unlocked phones right? I just checked the software version in my phone and it's running on E9810p. And one more question, the unlocked software version contains all the default android languages? I just found here a file for my country, its in the HungaryE986 folder on the site what you linked (i can't put there links because i just registered yesterday sorry.) but it's number is E98610E. So i don't know it is compatible with my phone or not.
Hello there, I just bought a second hand G3, it is on the 4.4.2 still, from what the guy said it is from europe and I am using it here on Brazil, also it is rooted.
What I want to know is, should I go back to the original fw to then check for a 5.0.x update, if yes how should I do this? Should I just go ahead and update to a custom fw, if yes what one, what are the options?
Sorry for that many questions, but looking around here there is to much info for a newbie like myself that I am not sure where to start!
My device info:
Model: LG-D855 16gb
Baseband: MPSS.DI.c1.13-00009-M8974AAAAANPZM-1.01701338.5067.1
Kernel: 3.4.0
Software version: v10m-twn-xx
Thanks for the help!
Hi!
Im new to the G4. I am from Austria and bought it online. I got following Version:
Factory Version
LGH815AT-00-V10c-TWN-XX-Aug-18-2015
SW Original Version
LGH815AT-00-V10c-OPT1-YT-Aug-18-2015
When I read right, this is the TWN Version and thats always one of the most new ones?
Would it eventought be possible to, for example, flash the EUR Open?
I'm asking because i got an Update for LG Health but not in german.
Would I have any disadvantages?
Thanks in advance!

Did you eventually find out whether it's safe to flash the Open version or not?
I have boringly used an LG G4 for almost two years now. Just after a few months of using it, I had the bootloop issue, LG gave me another G4 which I've been using for more than a year. But I believe it is time to unlock the true potential of my phone. I've transferred all my pics and vids and similar stuff to my computer, so now it's go time. The only thing is... I don't know what to do.
Model number: LG-H815TR
Android version: 6.0
Android security patch level: 2017-03-01
Kernel version: 3.10.84
Build number: MRA58K
Software version: V20i-TUR-xx
These are the info I think are relevant. I have no experience in rooting whatsoever. What do I do now? (an up-to-date detailed guide also works for me)
Hey,
I still need help for this.
I've checked online and couldn't find anything for H-815TR v20i running Marshmallow.
Can someone come to my rescue?

It's very easy:
You can't unlock your device because LG allows unlocking of the 815 international version and 811 only.
Marshmallow can be rooted on unlocked devices only (so not on yours).
If you really need root you need to downgrade to lollipop.
Downgrading to LL requires a compatible anti roll back version. Search the forum for the code which displays your current antirollback version and the how-to for downgrading and rooting LL
.
Sent from my LG-H815 using XDA Labs
Oh okay.
So I can't root my phone as is, I need to downgrade to Lollipop to do that.
Well I was thinking of flashing some custom ROMs and maybe underclocking for more battery life but given that this is my only smartphone I'd better stick to its current state then.
find the service menu for your phone. Google lg g4 service menu. call that number. check anti roll back version (last entry) if 0 you should be ok to downgrade, if not 0 downgrade will likely brick your device.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803
read carefully and ask a any questions before using LGUP if unsure
after that you can root with https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4-100-root-success-directives-root-t3180586
or upload your img file and kindly ask someone to root it for you and re-upload it
Anti-rollback version is 0.
Hi everyone,
I just purchased an unlocked G7 ThinQ from B&H. I found that instead of the LG startup animation there was one by a company called "Claro." I'm looking for a way to flash the original LG Splash screen or skip over it entirely. I'm aware that I'll need to root the phone first and any guides of the sort are appreciated.
Model: LG-G710AWM
Hardware Version: Rev 1.0
Android Version: 8.0.0
Kernel Version: 4.9.65
tl:dr Please help me install an LG Splash Screen instead of the Claro one.

Try updating with LG Bridge. It will overwrite it

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that didn't solve my problem but now I have a new question;
Could downloading the official LG Firmware for my G710AWM be the answer? And would I have to root my phone to install firmware that came from LG?

Yeah you can use LG UP to install that firmware but it's a bit tricky to install. Also there's no root for your model since it's not unlockable.
Same Issue - Claro Startup Splash Screen
I have exactly the same issue. Only difference is I got my Lg G7 through Walmart. Anybody?
You could probably use of bridge to overwrite the "official" ROM with the one from the website. I got mine from Rogers but it has the lg splash screen. I think the only thing to worry about, if you flash the official firmware from lg, is the APN settings for your LTE. I have the same version as you though, as far as model and firmware and Android version. I wonder if maybe there is a flag you are missing. I've been researching this phone all month, and the best we can do is wait for lg to release pie. If lg bridge automatically downloads your ROM, you can just download the official from LG's website. There should be no reason why you can't at least use the official lg firmware to change the boot animation, cause that's about all we can do with this phone.
Idk maybe when pie is released they will make fast boot functional.

Thanks for the suggestions. While I'm kind of an expert on Windows, I'm not that familiar with the technical aspects of smartphones and android. Certainly don't want to brick the new phone. Might just wait for pie and see what happens. Guess I can live with the splash screen since no indication that it impacts functionality. I was just hoping that there was some easy way different cell phone providers could put their logos on the splash screen since I've seen images of the Lg G7 being powered up with various splash screens showing.
Thanks again.

The lg tools are super easy to follow if you can read instructions, but yeah, it's just a splash screen.
