I have just bought a 2nd hand phone. Seems like it was originally EE (UK) its on MM and Sense 7. Try as I might I can't seem to find anything on this baseband version. 3.35.61.14
Anyone else have this?
I am going to S-off next week as I want to debrand it, but just curious as to why I can't find this anywhere.
Edit: Ignore my ignorance. This is just the carrier suffix.

My Desire was bought from O2, so has it's firmware.
I'm moving abroad next month, will I still get an update to 2.2 ?
I won't be using O2.. will that stop me ?
Would I be better flashing it with a generic rom ?
Thanks

It's about choice...
Why you need flashing? if you Desire daily usage for Phone, SMS, Chat and Check Email and little bit Browse the net.. I think wait until official release for Desire much better than Rooted/Flashing your phone
Thanks for the reply.
I'd prefer not to flash or root it if I can help it.
The question really is will a UK O2 Desire automatically upgrade to 2.2 if used in New Zealand, with Vodafone ?
Thanks
Probably not. My understanding is that receiving updates is dependent on your current version. I'm on Meteor in Ireland, for example, but I won't receive any specific Meteor updates, because I have the generic HTC firmware.
So if you're on a kiwi network, with the O2 software, you'll get neither the HTC update nor any update your new network rolls out.
So either debrand now and get the HTC update whenever it's released, or wait until it comes out and flash the 2.2 rom directly.
One other thing you could do is take it to Vodafone in New Zealand and ask them to flash their own software on it. Since you're a new customer, they'll most likely oblige.
But that's if they even stock the Desire, btw. If they don't you'll have to do it yourself.
One thing to keep in mind re:carrier specific firmwares is that it may take an awfully long time for upgrades to trickle down. You could be looking at an additional month or more between HTC releasing it and your carrier releasing it.
And even when they do, they might disable certain features (wi-fi tethering, for example, isn't too popular with mobile operators)
Thanks
that is what I'd thought..
I suppose the only other thing would be if O2 released it for download, then I could manually install it !!
Are there still issues with wifi and the generic rom ?
Yeah, that's another way. Bookmark this link:

The only issues were with people who people who debranded their phone and flashed to the generic rom. But for anybody else, there's no issues whatsoever.
Thanks
If I change the ROM is there any risk ? I'm not bothered about root, but would like to have the option of 2.2 when I'm not in the UK.
can you point me to a firmware flashing guide ?
Thanks again.
Well this is the latest (generic) rom update:

Very easy to install. Just download the .exe to your PC, and open it while your phone is plugged in. The installer will walk you through.
I don't know if it's that simple for branded phones though. You might have to debrand first... I honestly couldn't say. You might ask in that thread and list your FW number. Maybe somebody else will know.
You're sure it's a branded phone, yes? There's no .405 in the version number?
My firmware is : 1.20.207.3 CL171460 release-keys
I'll ask in the other forum.
Thanks
Hi everyone , sorry to bother with this totally noob question but i want to be sure about one thing , my lg g3 model number so that i can find the right roms and root guide. I bought my phone unlocked in taiwan , i was wondering if someone could tell me what i would use as my model number when searching for compatible custom roms.

First of all, 10m is your software version, not model number. The 10m just means you are on firmware version 10m. Seeing as you bought your phone in Taiwan, you most likely have an Asian variant such as the F400 or F400k. You may possibly have an international D855, but it's impossible to tell from your picture. Take your battery cover off and let me know what model number you see on the sticker under the battery. The same model number should be plastered all along the inside edges of the phone once the battery cover is removed as well. Like I said, it should be F400, F400k, D855, or something similar. Please let me know.
Thanks for your help. I looked behind the cover and its a D855. So when i search for compatible roms and stuff i should look for that model numer? Thanks for patience with ny ignorance man lol
Ok so thanks again for ur quick help. Ive done alot more reading now and im ready to root my phone, one thing ive had trouble finding is the stock firmware for my device if anything should go wrong or if i want to dl the OTA lollypop update i just received in the future. My current firmware is v10m-TWN-xx and i havr d855 16gb, i could only find the 32gb version. Would really appreciate it if someone lets me know where i could get the 16gb. Thanks guys!
Hi,
getting my hands on a 520M - I cannot find info for twrp/recovery info stating specifically a given version works on the M model. (this is a latin american regional model as I understand it), but the phone comes unlocked, assume it is 6.0 though I can upgrade to an early 7.0 version (avoiding the u2/u3 bootloader issues).
Can/might it work with https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...fficial-release-twrp-recovery-galaxy-t3648152 ? Or looking at it another way, are there any hardware differences that might make it likely to have issues?
Any insight appreciated,

From my understanding the letter behind the SM-520x just marks the region, the hardware used should be the same however. I would try it, but make sure to download your stock recovery, so you can fix it, just in case it doesn't work out correctly! Hope i could help
well, thing is my device has a firmware from a carrier form mexico and i wanted to change it to get rid of those MANY apps it comes with. however, i ended up with some questions, i want a version that can give me OTA updates as they come out (this carrier takes a lot of time to realease updates) so as far as i could find the lm-g710em10b was a good option, but my model is a lm-g710awm, so...
1._ can i flash the g710em10b kdz on my g710awm model without having to worry about something in specific?
2._ Is that kdz version a good one or do you recomend another one for me?
3._ as far i know i do not need to unlock my bootloader to change my firmware, am i wrong?
hope you can help me, and thanks in advance hehe
Copied from the OnePlus forums - no response yet so far
I recently got my new OnePlus 9rt, however I've ran into a few perplexing issues with the handset.
The first issue is that it is just outright missing the manual update option. No cog, no nothing.
The second issue which compounds to the first, is that every time I try to update the software to MT2111_11.A.07_2022031423170148, it fails. My current version is 11.3 according to the phone. Manually updating through the oxygen OS installer also fails. Which brings me to the next point..
The third issue is that under the model section of the phone, instead of saying the model of the handset, it says the model is Lahaina for arm64, which I'm quite sure it's not meant to be there. Everything else, build number, baseband version, kernel version (provided below) match the other handsets. However a cursory examination on this forum says that there were/are people on this forum with a similar issue to the second point.
So I'm wondering, is this ROM official? Or did I get a corrupted pre-install of the software on the phone? Or am I overthinking this?
Also messages don't delete completely in messenger app. You delete them, and then a second later they return.
For reference, here is the information..
Build number: MT2111_11_A.03
Baseband version: Q_V1_P14,Q_V1_P14
Kernel version: 5.4.96-qgki-g449ba87830ff
Thanks in advance
Where did you buy the phone from and what country are you in? Currently the handset is only officially sold in China and India.
Was the package completely sealed, or has it been opened? It sounds to me like you have been sold a handset from the Chinese market and it's had the unofficial Indian ROM flashed on it.
ie. this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...xygenos-a-04-a-07-for-mt2110-devices.4404719/
I bought the phone from Kogan, and I'm from Australia. This isn't the first time I bought a OnePlus from there, but this is my first time with these issues specifically.
As for the package, it was sealed yes. And yes, those issues are practically identical with a few asides - such as the cog button missing. Such as that one..
Device name in settings displayed incorrectly "Lahaina for amd64" instead of expected "MT2111".
Yeah, that's 100% what it is.
Issue resolved, thanks!
