Hi all, this is my first ever thread and today I was looking at the sw version on my thinq and noticed it is V10o-222-01. This doesn't seem to match any of the current versions available here in Italy for any operator and no brand phones. Mine happens to be branded TIM but I'm using an Iliad sim. The android patch is dated november which should be correct... I think there's not much I should be worried about but I thought I'd ask here if others have different sw versions. Thanks

It's normal but if it's branded TIM then it's not EM. Most models have their own way to number the updates
A.k.a some goes 10b, 10f, 10k etc. While others use for example 10o

noob questions sorry in advance!
I would like to know if the baseband version, kernel and build number of the NG sold by different countries varies
If it does so will the difference affect the OTA update process?
Also, can anyone bought from the uk confirm that the warranty by samsung is 2 years and the international warranty is for UK only or EU region or anywhere?
THanks
anyone
All the current ones have been sold in the UK. There might be different regional firmwares bu we don't know for sure until they start showing up.

Does everyone get the same regional market place on this phone or is it different regions different market place ?
I was wondering because someone over at galaxy note said his phone came from another country and he could do a firmware update, I now firmware and apps are different but for any chance anything like this happening with a google device ! just curious

tks!
I know that the nexus went on sale in Korea on the 28th. I have not bought it but i do know that the model number is SHW 420S/K, which is different from the GT I9250 sold in the UK. I am also wondering the same thing. Will the hardware be the same? Will you be able to run I9250 roms on this?

else we'll have GSM problem trying to figure out which model is which as it happened with Nexus S i9020T vs i9020A
Hey guys, I have 2 one x's to choose from, one a euro version with the software update and the other is a Hong Kong version without the update avaible yet. besides the update is there any discernable difference between the 2? is the update really that much better? just asking because the hk version is brand new and the euro version is slightly used but cheaper. hope someone can help! thanks
Get the euro version if you dont want to wait for updates, as euro get updates first and then the rest of the world follow. I had a HK version and got tired of waiting for update to fix my issues, went back to store I got it from and they replaced it for a euro version with update and now all issues gone.
The HK update is now available. I have 1.28.708.10 installed now.
I tested both by running several benchmarks, it seems the Hong Kong version blew away the Euro version by quite a large #. Guess it was just a slightly better device as no two are the same.
Yes my HK version got around 11000 score and then when I got the euro version it got around 9000, but after I got rid of some bloatware (mainly 7digtal) and run test got same as HK version 11000.
I would choose the eu version too, but if you are going to root and stuff it doesn't matter much

Anyone have any idea or hear any news of when Android 8.1 will be pushed to UK Nokia 6.1? News online 4-5 days ago that it started rolling out OTA in India?
Nothing here on my UK model. Stuck on February security patch.
I got the 8.1 update with the april patch a few days ago (april 13rd) in france
Is yours a European spec model or from Asia?

Good to hear it is being pushed in Europe. Hopefully get it this week!
I got it from Carphone Warehouse here in the UK, they got exclusive rights to sell it. Model TA-1050.

Its annoying. Hopefully get it rolled out ASAP.
Mine is from Carphone Warehouse too. I've tried using a VPN to spoof that I'm in India and France but nothing is coming through.
I'm hoping that 8.1 will allow me to use the more recent Google Pixel camera APKs as I'm currently having to use an ancient one in order for HDR processing to work.

My only criticism of the phone is the camera, like you say, hopefully the update will allow us to use the updated camera apps.

What's your model number? Mine says TA-1050
I've tried using a VPN to spoof being in France with no luck. I wonder if it's tied to my IMEI.
Any suggestions as to something else that might work would be good.

Mine is also TA-1043 version 5
According to https://nokiapoweruser.com/variants-nokia-7-plus-8-sirocco-6-plus-1-emerge-various-certifications/ there are 5 Nokia 6.1 variants : TA-1050, TA-1043, TA-1045, TA-1016, TA-1054
I bought a TA-1043 from amazon.de (shipped to ireland) and i have not gotten the 8.1 upgrade either....
Does anyone know what the difference between the various models (1043 / 1050) is?
I just got the TA-1043 in Hungary from Germany (Amazon) and got 8.1 on first boot.
Anyone with the TA-1050 model got this update yet? I'm not very impressed given my security patch is from the 1st Feb... It's nearly May.
Anyone know what model lauched in USA the other day? Be interesting to see if they also got the update out the box.
Carphone Warehouse have exclusivity in the UK - not sure if my model is 'their' brand and therefore has slowed updates. Bit annoying that the brand new Nokia 6 is behind the old Nokia 6 with updates though - kind of makes me wonder what the real point of Android One is.

Yeah I don't think that makes a difference. They are sim free/unlocked devices.
As an android one phone, the updates are pushed directly from Google OTA (supposedly). Just find it strange that it's still not pushed in the UK.

You don't happen to be with EE do you? I seen someone complaining about Nokia phones not receiving update due to EE... On an unlocked phone... I don't have another sim to try.

Considering i have a TA-1043 (same as a user above who also ordered off Amazon Germany but is based in hungary and received the update on first boot), i'm guessing the updates are just country limited. UK/Ireland seem to be down the pecking order.
Has anyone tried connecting over a VPN to do the update (or at least download it)?
I’ve tried. No luck.
I have an LG G7 ThinQ phone that won't get the android 9 update.... it keeps saying that I'm already using the latest version of the software... well, that's frustrating, 'cause I know other LG G7 ThinQ owners that got the android 9 months ago... please help...
Your phone is probably crossflashed.
Did you by it from ebay amazon etc or secondhand....

Romania, but I don't think that that affects the pie update... I know someone that lives in the same neighborhood as I do, has a phone just like mine (LG G7 ThinQ), we bought the devices only a few days apart, and he received his pie update in june + other updates since then (security patch and others)... and I haven't received any of those... does it have anything to do with the model number or the telecommunications company? My model number is LM-G710EM... the company is Telekom... I looked up my IMEI on imei.info and everything seems ok, no counterfeit or anything like that...
Check your ime number and Se if its not crossflashed
Som retailers is shady country's like rumania crossflash sprint phones and sells them as 710em. Thay will nog get security ore pie updates. U whold be surprised what company's do to make money.

I checked my IMEI on imei.info site and it seems to be valid... the PhoneInfo app also indicates that the IMEI is valid, everything looks fine, but I still can't get the android pie update... I even tried the LG Bridge and it doesn't work...
Having the same problem here. Wrote an Email to the LG Support via the LG Website with my IMEI. Turned out that i got a Demodevice that can´t be updated. Did you try to flash a Pie KDZ ?
The phone I have was misrepresented as an unlocked phone, come to find out that it was a cross flashed Sprint phone. I sent it in to LG to have it repaired. They wanted $365 to fix it. I got ripped off as the seller sold it as an unlocked phone. Now I'm stuck with a phone that won't update and cannot use Google Pay. LG isn't going to help either.
Hi,
I bought a Note 10 + Today in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Long story short - After a brief search online, I found the best price available on a website. It's only later when I realized that the phone is imported from Taiwan given that the Phones Model is SM-N9750.
What I found really frustrating is that some applications display the Taiwanese language. I check Sammobile for the same model and found that the only two countries supporting this particular model is Taiwan and Hong Kong. The rest of the phones from different countries have a different model number. So, is it possible for me to flash a firmware from any other country ( Preferably from USA, UK, UAE or India)? If so, which one is compatible?
Thanks
I have the N9750 (TGY/Hongkong) and it's in full French, I don't have app in Chinese.
maybe make a factory reset and reconfigure your phone in your language

Thanks. Regardless of the language. Is there any way I can flash firmware from another country? Is there any compatible ones for this model?

No Im afraid you cannot. N9750 is being sold only in two regions as far as I know. Hong Kong and Taiwan. I also have a N9750 TGY/Hong Kong. And I love it. Absolutely no bloatware, dual sim and SD855. Only con I see is its updates are slow compared to other models. No Android 10 beta or stable till date

Well, that's sad. I was hoping that it might be compatible with any firmware that running on exynos.
Not that I don't like Taiwan and Hong Kong based fw. It really is rock solid.
Here's hoping that someone might test out alternative fw for this model in the future and let us know.
Thanks.

S10+ Hong Kong version took whole one month over international model. So Im pretty sure the same formula will apply to our model aswel
I expect Android 10 update to arrive on 15 January at earliest.

I also have a 9750 (shipped with BRI, then I changed it to TGY using Samkey) and found that during the OOB setup, some app titles were in Chinese, but as long as you chose English on the very first screen, everything including those with Chinese app titles will end up being in English. As a last resort, you can do a full reset and make sure you select English on the first screen.
If you need help navigating, try using Google Translate's live camera translation from another phone to understand what is displayed on your screen (I had to do that once since my S9+ shipped already on the home screen--in Chinese.)

The Chinese government is probably vetting it to make sure there's no hidden code meant to subvert their policies and make it easier to organize pro-democracy rallies (j/k).
Taiwan model note 10 plus
@Rocks1991
Same thing here. Wondering if we can do anything to change the language.
More serious issue i am facing is that the bottom speaker doesn't work at times even after the factory reset. Does anyone face that issue? I guess i should replace the phone as this issue persists. Can i get advice on this?
