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.
I got my new unlocked G7 from ebay. I cannot get any over-the-air software update. I am using it in T-Mobile have no problem of using wi-fi calling, and HD calling.
Its software version is still G710ULM11g, Security patch level is Nov 1, 2018.
The Hardware info: Model number: LM-G710ULM, but the S/N displays nothing in it.
Any suggestion how to upgrade the software?
You need to upgrade manually.your phone most likely was sprint and the seller flashed with ulm software thats why you cannot update ota.
Use this procedure on this thead

No S/N, Its a cross flashed variant. Flash manually. But if you wanna fix S/N you have to send it to LG authorized service center:fingers-crossed:
You can use your IMEI to get the right firmware. https://lg-firmwares.com/series/lg-g7-thinq/ search here. Flash it manually using lg up

Like the others have said, more than likely it was a Sprint phone (g710PM) flashed to a g710ULM. Go to IMEIPro or a similar IMEI checking site, enter your IMEI, and most likely it'll say g710PM. Literally just went thru this 2 days ago with a phone from Ebay, but I'm sending the phone back. Seller never disclosed it and I don't want to bother with some of the potential issues/shortcomings. Like they also said, you should be able to flash other roms on it, but be aware that future over the air updates are not going to happen, and others have had varying levels of success with getting Google Pay to work on the phone. This might be no big deal, but just putting it out there. Good luck dude.

I am in the same boat as yours, got it from ebay said new ULM, it even has sticker with ULM marked on it. But now I checked, it is g710PM. Too bad its too late to return. Next time, I won't buy phone unlock in ebay.

I checked it original is g710PM. Can I just directly flash the latest ULM firmware on it?
Hi,
I also bought one of the PM to ULM crossflashed phones from eBay.
I managed to flash newest ULM firmware, but still have the missing S/N issue and the phone is not passing Safetynet CTS check. So I can‘t install Netflix on the phone.
Has anybody a solution to fix theses Issues? Manual flashing instead of OTA is no problem, but Safetynet sucks.

How did you flash the latest firmware and are there any side effects besides netflix?
Can you provide a link to the thread if there is one for flashing this.

I tried my IMEI its not in the DB 8(
I searched several different imei sites and didn't gain any success. The ulm I got was straight from a reputable distributor(sealed in box) as a carrier unlocked phone. I'm wanting to get back in to development after about 10 years hiatus.
I have however enabled "OEM unlock" in developer settings on the phone, so that's at least a good step forward.
Ok so guyz...

Well---I went back to 20f because of WiFi calling. I had flashed the Canadian 30d (AWM)--worked very well everywhere but no WiFi calling. I live where there is little to no signal, so........
I would be interested if the EU rom has that......

Well---I could backup the phone & try it.....Happy with the WiFi calling right now, so I'll wait a bit. Would REALLY like to see a ULM 10 upgrade though.......Most of the other models have already got it---why not this one?
did anyone ever figure out how these sellers have ‘new in box’ sealed box g7’s that have 710ULm barcode on the box and all
But are sprint g7 variants
Is this something lg did as a refurb type tactic themself and sent them out
Like sprint overstock and they dumped em off to resellers ....

I might have the current Australian csc rom with me and hopefully could share it with you but before that....
How do you plan to change it to Australia without changing the csc of watch via combination firmware which, apparently is not available as of now for the 825F model.

I used a combination file from a paid website and it was a wrong file. It bricked my watch and I got it fixed from samsung under warranty. Can you share the firmware you have? Which one is it?

Man I know the paid site all have the wrong combination files. They are cheating and misleading the people that too after taking money. I know what must have happened you flashed a 825U firmware which was listed under 825F section in that website.
Good for you were in warranty. Rest the firmware i had was the same OLB available on that website. So no use.

Hi Aman, Do you rom for R825F OLB, can you share it?
As title says which version of phone should i avoid on fleabay as i want to buy this phone. No one seems to answer this specifically :/
thanks
bump
You need european version, so G710EM (64GB) or G710EAW (128GB)
i get that i need the european version but the american handsets will work too and i've been told to avoid the Tmobile version at all costs.
i just needed to now which is the best variant from the american/canadian ones!
cheers
Canadian AWM version. Support more lte band (for UK and Europe) then USA unlocked ULM
thanks siley
only g710EM
now im confused???
Get the 710em that's what I got when I brought mine worked fine
I told him EM or EAW is best for Europe, but he want model from America so Canadian AWM is better.
I got the LM-G710EM version

I think is a crossflashed device. Mine is EM too, but came with open EU rom and it is a TIM device (italian carrier). Amazon things...
U can flash any firmw u want with lg_up 14-15, but with no ota support due to restrictions. U can always search ur region with ur imei in internet after a simple search on google, but if the device is from carrier... I recommend u a clean open eu kdz over any carrier firmware.
Hi,
I have tried looking on OnePlus official site and googling but im coming up with very limited info. Im in the UK and want a UK version with a global ROM.
I have seen that there is the CPH2449 is apparently the official UK version but also that PHB110 can work in the UK as it has global rom.
My question is, does anybody know or is there anywhere i can check the differences in models ?
Both the CPH2449 and PHB110 apparently come with the global rom so what's the real difference ? OnePlus recommend the CPH2449 variant but i can find the other much cheaper.
Cph2449 is global/eu and the PHB110 china model what have Stock cos installed and can flash to oos and have than no longer ander the PHB110 in the phone info than when you flash the global rom/eu rom than have it the cph2449 in the phone info

If you buy the China model, you must first activate it if it is not already activated, otherwise you will have a call block on the China model because it is used outside of China

You can buy it much cheaper and then:
Deal with call restrictions
Deal with bricking your device
Deal with losing both your IMEIs
All three are down to changing your ROM. I'm just astounded that you, as a UK citizen, are trying to save what amounts to two maybe three tickets to the cinema.
Good luck.

Im not bothered if i have to spend a little more, i simply did not know the difference, didnt realise all of the restrictions etc. The seller was telling me it will work fine in the UK and its cheaper. It would be silly not to look it up or ask.
