How to flash back from H790 to H791 - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

sorry for poor English first
since having a bootloop issue, I sent my H791 16GB version to China for repair followed those has the same issue,
and I upgrade ram as 4GB and rom as 32gb,
now my phone is back and looks everything works fine.
the only thing confused me is the variant in bootloader shown as LGH790 , which is US version...and IMEI code also changed
since my carrier in Taiwan needs band 8 for LTE...
if someone can teach me how to flash as H791?
at first I think I only needs to flash radio but I found the description in bootloader for H791 and H790 has no difference...

I have the H815, it says the network code is "SEA"?

Okay so I want to root my phone but I checked on imeidata what H815 variant it was and under Network Code it says SEA. So what exactly is that? I googled it but it didn't really come up with anything related to the phone.
Also, is this variant even rootable? I hope so, I want the cool stuff. D:
It also says SW Version : H81510B_00, carrier says ARROW. If any of this is relevant I have no clue.
you are using the SEA version of the H815. It's identical to the European counterpart, but basically still considered a "variant".
You can apply most of hack/root/exploits that can be applied to the H815, only that you can't unlock the boot loader, and thus can't install TWRP on it.
So just to be sure if I follow the "Low Effort Root" for the G4 on this site, it should work properly correct? I downloaded the files that said it was for the International Version.
yeah, as long as you use H815 files (not h815T, or H815P) then it should work.
case in point I flashed 10D open EU on my h815 SEA, no problem.
Though actually the easiest way for you to make sure your stuffs work is to flash a stock EU rom on it, then flash the rooted IMG for that EU rom on top.
SEA stands for Singapore version

Flash 16GB Stock on 32GB D855

My network (Three UK) has started offering 800MHz LTE with VoLTE but only to people who have particular phones (S5, G4 so far) using their branded firmware, with the radio being the important bit assumedly. The updated D855 firmware is expected in November so I want to be all ready for the OTA.
I've got the 32GB/3GB HKG variant which I've flashed to standard EUR.
Three UK only ever sold the 16GB version, so I expect the updated ROM will also be 16GB, and this doesn't fit well on a 32GB phone, I read in places that I will lose the other 16GB of storage.
Ignoring the option of extracting the magic radio and flashing that on its own, is there a known method to recover the missing 16GB if I just flash it as stock?
I've googled and XDAed but haven't found the right post yet.

G4 H815 now a H818N after Warrenty Claim, Incorrect Software Version now installed

Hello,
Long story short, I have obtained my phone back from repair in Hong Kong (I am located in Australia). Originally the model of G4 was a H815 using software version H81520D_00_0115 I believe from memory. This phone died because of it overheating causing to do a boot loop/stuck on LG Logo screen.
I ended up getting the phone back from Hong Kong, they replaced the mainboard as I thought and now the model of the phone thinks it is a H818N Dual Sim card LG G4 – Running software version V10c-DS1-HQ, which it clearly is not a dual sim card G4 because there is no additional sim card slot. Anyway, phone seems to be working well except the rear camera does not focus (I have had this issue in the past and I resolved the issue by installing the correct software version, eg 20A, 20C, 20D etc.) Trying to update the phone using software update does not reveal any updates. Using LG Bridge reveals an available update for it, it thinks the software version was 20F or 20H not sure, however when it goes to download it does not get past 0% tested on two PC’s.
I have installed the images I have found for the H818N now which are:
Hong Kong H818N10b.kdz (this one worked the best as it didn’t come up with that error message when you reboot if it’s an incompatible kdz image)
India H818N10d_00.kdz
India H818N 10F.kdz
With no success in fixing the rear camera issue. I have not factory reset though as I don’t think it would have much of an impact.
Have tried to loading: H81520D.kdz image but the LGUP utility (which I have been using for the above process) says KDZ file is invalid, I assume this is because it detects the phone as H818.
Does anyone have any suggestions or locations where I could download more images to try like H818N 10A,B,C etc? Or if there is something I should do cause I have had nothing but issues with these phones
Kind regards

Help on G4 H810 AT&T in Europe - can convert to H815?

Hello all,
I bought on ebay a couple of G4 at a good price but I discovered only at the arrival they are H810 and not H815 models. It was stated in the description but I did not understood the difference, so it's my fault.
The main issues are two:
can't update from Android 5.1 to 6 without an AT&T subscription
doesn't support LTE band 20 that is used by my carrier Vodafone Italy so I have almost no 4G coverage
For the first issue I tried the forced FOTA method using ADB: I put the 20N.up file (using the specific AT&T MarshMallow for H810 foung in XDA) in the internal memory but the process does not complete after the reboot saying that the update service is not available
==> The second one is the worst one and I think I need either to enable extra bands or try to convert the phone to a H815, if the modem hardware is the same. I tried the hidden menu but under Field Test->Modem Settings the Band selection is not present!
So I ask to you experts if I can use a flashing tool like LGUP to flash my H810 with an H815 software and how.
Thank you!

Edit: looking at your other posts, your issue looks like an imei issue. Sorry can't help. Ignore below if already done. There is an imei related thread in ROM section. Ask those guys for help.
First of all you need to stay with your own model firmware. Korean kdz is again a single sim firmware. Next in the unbrick tutorials it says to backup your partition before flashing. If you did that, the files will be at c\user\.....\appdata\roaming\qualcom\comport...\ .
The files will have really long filenames. Just check if they are backed up and flash them back.
I also experienced tish issue . before this i bought phone from ali express after i received it sudden restart itself automatic like 2 or 3 times a day. It was dual sim phone. Today i thought it is a software glitch. I checked my software version then i downloaded pie version of indian region. When it flashed successfuly it shows only one sim and also shows only one imei number. But sudden reboot issue fixed. I dont know what was then and what is now. It was before g710aew and now g710ulm. I think it is refurbished phone. So em saying you should flash pie version from indian region.
