I just got a G7 from eBay. On the back it has sticker says LG-G710PM but when I check under the hardware info in setting it says "LG-G710ULM" and the S/N is blank. It has a weird software version too

Does anyone know what is this firmware? I'm guessing they installed some custom ROM onto the Sprint LG-G710PM to unlock it.
Yes, this is legit. Someone flashed the European firmware onto the device.
Is there a way to update the phone? or what KDZ can i use ? got one also and have the same security patch?
Hey I have the same one from ebay. Won’t work with sprint, doesn’t have bars. Could this European firmware have something to do with it?
I think its not the European version software these phones have, it must be US version ULM (Unlocked) FIRMWARE software, But the phone is a G710PM (Sprint) Hardware model. There must be an issue with sprint i think and that's why you have no BARS, If not contact the ebay SELLER.

Have you tried sprint with yours? Is it working?
Why would it have different firmware from the hardware and will this cause issues?

I followed Radha09's post https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/how-to/lg-g7-thinq-lgg710pm-to-g710ulm10g-t3861962 and magic! Sprint voice and text is now working.
Data actually isn't yet, but I imagine that I just need to fiddle a bit.
Anyone else have thoughts on this phone? I also just bought an LG G7 (USA Unlocked) from eBay seller yywireless and it has the exact info as the OP has. Price is great, but I'm concerned about the Security Patch Level showing "1 May 2018" and when I try to update the phone OTA it says it's already up to date. Wondering what are the risks if I keep the phone? S/N shows as blank also. Other that this it seems to work perfectly! Do we think the bootloader is still locked like other US phones or maybe it's unlocked and will allow a flash to an alternate ROM? I'm a newb, so looking for advice here on whether to keep the phone or not. Lots of these still listed on eBay as we speak... thanx.

Yes, it's now working on Sprint fully. Unfortunately I don't remember exactly what I did, but I think it was mainly APN settings, I was playing with the "secret menu" to select correct bands etc. but again if I remember correctly it was the APN settings that did it.

Got this morning the 4.4.3-update for my N7 2013 LTE; now it WON'T connect to Vodafone NL anymore...
More people have the same problem, that it won't connect to the provider anymore?
Can you try the previous radio and see if it is working?

I had exactly the same thing, and also with Vodafone NL. Although, I assume that's only a coincidence: when I try to search for other networks, I get a toast message with an error saying: "Error searching for networks".
Therefore, I took the radio image from the 4.4.2 factory image, flashed it to my N7, and then I got my mobile network connection back.

I flashed an older radio image, and that one's working. However, since I see only 1 other person who has reported this problem over the past few days, I am wondering whether we have a defect in our hardware that emerges when using the new radio. If it would be purely software, I would expect a lot more reports about this defect.

If everything works with the old radio, Im guessing its most likely software. Cant test LTE right now, so I cant give you guys more feedback. But the fact that you both use the same provider might also be a factor. I would recommend trying out someone else's SIM (different provider) on the new radio and see how that goes.

It seems, that our N7 have received the wrong baseband-version during the update!
Left is the update we've received in the NL, right is the update received in other countries!
Have a look at the baseband-version: the only difference is the "letter"! We should have received the "G", but we got the "H"!

Confirmed, I went several times between the 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 factory images and with a vodafone sim inserted on 4.4.3 it can even scan for networks anymore!
I have the same problem here and using Ziggo mobile. Smalband version DEB-H00_2.42.0_1204
Dont have a rooted Nexus or anything else, just standard. I'm pretty new with android so i really dont have a clue what to do.
Google support is not very helpfull just the basic thinks like deleting cache, restore.

live with it, until an update comes along, or unlock and flash the 4.4.2 factory image
I have the same issue. Nexus 7 2013 LTE, tested with both Vodafone NL and Ziggo Mobiel SIM-cards: same issue.
What is the easiest way to revert to previous Android version (4.4.2)? I'm also non-rooted. Dataloss is no issue, since I just wiped my device to see if there was a user setting messing it up...
---
To downgrade:
- I needed to unlock my bootloader ("fastboot oem unlock"). This voids the warranty, which I don't have in NL anyway.
- I downloaded the files on this page: http://www.androidbeat.com/2013/11/flash-factory-image-nexus-device/
- I followd the steps to run 'flash-all' (after unzipping everything). This wipes all userdate (which was already gone).

Ziggo appears to use the Vodafone network, so the bug could still be related to the interaction with Vodafone only.
Anyone on KPN or T-mobile? (I have the same problem and also am currently on Vodafone...)

I was thinking the same, but still it is a software bug. I noticed that I was also unable to 'downgrade' the network type to '3G' in the buggy firmware. I could only select 4G. Just tested in 4.4.2 and I can select the lower version there.
If it is a Vodafone-only issue, I am very affraid that this will never be resolved...

Somewhere else was reported that the same device works with a Lebara SIM but not with a Vodafone SIM. Lebara uses the KPN network in the Netherlands, so somehow the bug is related to the Vodafone setup in some way .
I am back at 4.4.2. Vodafone NL and android 4.4.3 are not a good combination .

If you install the recovery from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...elopment/recovery-galaxy-a3-sm-a320f-t3562302 you can flash SuperSU zip and get root on A320FL. For some reason Samsung has updated the A320F to nougat a month ago but the FL variant is still not getting it. It's pretty frustrating praying for 7.0 when 8.0 is already officially out
I have not changed anything yet because I was not sure. I would like to use it only root to lucky patcher or xposed.
I make it then as it is in the guidance of the linkhttps://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series-2017/development/recovery-galaxy-a3-sm-a320f-t3562302 or?

Does it mean that the A320F is exactly the very same device as the A320F/DS?
I'm asking because, according to the box, I've bought the A320F/DS (DS stands for dual sim), but then when I check "model number" in the settings it reads just SM-A320F (without the DS). And I'm crazy looking for FW updates and/or custom ROMs specific for the DS variant without any success. All I can find is for the A320F (besides the FL and the Y, of course), and even in Samsung's stock downloading pages I can only find the A320F, as if they had totally forgotten the "DS". If both devices are exactly the same, this would explain the lack of results in my search.

It seems to only be upgradable to Marshmellow via the stock rom. You have to install a custom rom. I've been using android Pie lineage with this phone for months, and it works great.

Stateside is coming next, for the "open market" US998 -- hopefully within the next month. That US998 isn't even released yet.
Took 3 weeks from time European H930 was released (early November 2017) to be placed on LG Bootloader unlock list (November 27, 2017).
Well, the the North American "open market" US998 will be released December 5. (Ordered mine yesterday, and going to order a 2nd LG V30 in about a month.) So, maybe December 27 it will be added to the LG Bootloader Unlock list?
Earlier this year, took SIX WEEKS for the LG G6 North American "open market" US997 to be placed on the LG bootloader unlock list... So, let's hope it's only the same three weeks (like the H930) for the LG V30 "open market" US998* !
______
* NO, not the U.S. Cellular model. The "open market" US998, non-carrier branded model. The OFFICIAL carrier unlocked model US998.

that's weird. they decided to unlock the LG V30+ model (Italy - H930G) unlike the G6+ which wasn't unlocked.

I'm hoping LG will release a V30+ variant of the "open market"'US998. And of course placed on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.
That will be my 2nd LG V30. My wife will get the first one (64GB), which I pre-ordered yesterday from B&H Photo.
Since LG has not officially announced the open market version US998, we really don't know what they're going to release, other than that pre-order page on B&H Photo. There will be other authorized retailers for the US998...but only B&H Photo seems to be offering pre-orders.

that's a good option - but i also want to have insurance for my phone, and it only covers the H930G Israel Varient, so i will have to stick to the unrootable model unfortunatly.
Hi ,I am a newbie at Android and XDA forum (and it's my first post), sorry if it's not the correct way to ask you a question.
i was wondering where did you find your H930G model ? I was on LG Italia and they do not propose yet this model either via shop nor Internet. orders are yet not possible. But they do advertise for this model !
Will be there a way to order the H930G in Italia for a French resident ? I precise that I m only interested in V30+ (128Go), I know that H930 is admissible for unlock bootloader.
Thanks for your precious help.
Hi,
Im more curious if the carrier version of the V30 from A1 can also be bootloader unlocked... Its an Austrian Provider, so it should be a H930. I asked in their community forums but got no answer, just "try it yourself"...
I might consider buying it there, in some time, but only if i can do with the device what i want ?
If someone might know something, i would be glad if you could let me know

No I mean, it's online only, you can't just pick it up there?
Import fees would kill me if they shipped to my country.
I'd save money by going there on vacation and buying it there, lol.

Use the right firmware for your hardware
So I am using AT&T version Zfold 4 model SM-F936U/DS in India and my software version is as follows:
Build number
SP2A.220305.013.F936USQU1AVGA
Service provider software version
SAOMC_SM-F936U_OYN_GCF_12_0003
GCF/GCF.GCF/XAA
Its stuck on android 12 May update.
I want to flash Indian firmware to make it Indian version of Z fold 4 for faster updates and enabling the call recorder.
What do I need to do? Any help will be appreciated. If this is answered anywhere please provide links to that thread and I will delete this one.
I am totally confused about CSC, firmware version, carrier version etc.
Not gonna happen without root, even then might be difficult.
The Indian model is a F936B model. Trying to flash the firmware on it is like trying to flash IOS on an android.
Did see a way to change CSC in the forum however I believe you needed to have the compatible variant as it needed the OXM ROM flashed 1st.

Thanks for the reply. I am browsing the forums for a solution and so far have got nothing. I don't want to root the device as of now.

Your phone, F936U, is carrier locked to the U.S. network, AT&T, and if genuine, can only receive updates when connected on their network as unlike other models, AT&T issue their own firmware updates.
This model also has a locked bootloader which prevents the flashing of alternative stock firmware.
Also, it seems strange that a phone that was only launched in August 2022 would have a, "May", update. Install DevCheck, free from the Play Store and check if you have a clone phone.

Seems genuine. Your mention of a May update threw me.
It is running the F936USQU1AVGA firmware which it was launched with and therefore, has never received an update.
However, it is still a bootloader locked model, even though you have it carrier unlocked. The only way to update it is to insert an AT&T SIM card and connect to their network in the US. Other than that, you will need to do a search to see if there are any custom ROM's that utilises the locked AT&T bootloader. Alternatively, just carry on using it as it is

Thanks for clearing these things for me. I appreciate it.
No experience with AT&T but if they release their firmware online then you should be able to download & flash latest using ODIN.
Good Luck....

i dont think its possible, India phone comes with 2 physical sim slots or an esim option for the second sim where as the AT&T which you and I have, comes only with single physical sim.

Hi Chirag,
were you able to update your phone? I have the same model(SM-F936U/DS) and stuck with an old update and no new updates show up even though Andriod 13 has been rolled out for the Indian variants.
if there is no possibility of updating the phone then I might consider selling it! any help woud be appreciated.

There is no way I could find online to get the updates. Nothing works. The only way is to have US sim and be connected to AT&T network in US to get the update which is impossible. So I guess we are stuck with the old os version.

Hi Chirag,
Thanks for the revert. Thats a bummer that we can't do anything with the update. I can still make my peace with the slow updates but having no updates especially the security updates is very concerning.
I will keep you posted in case I happen to come across any solution to this.
Regards,
Amit.

Hi, Do you mind listing out the csc version that you used? Also any tips on how to flash it would be appreciated . The lack of software update is really driving me nuts man.

Hi Chirag,
I can confirm the method mentioned shorty9210 indeed works! I just changed the CSC to T-Mob and the updates have started flowing. Just use the samFw.com tool to change the CSC, you will get T-MOB logo once you have changed the CSC but the updates will come by. It didnt delete the data too. Couldnt be any happier!
Give it a shot!
Cheers,
Amit.

you are a life saver sir! Thanks so much! I changed the csc to T-Mob and the updates are flowing! A quick question though do we need to change back and forth to GFC everytime theres an update? For now mine is at T-MOB.
