All variety are suitable for custom ROM, just some amazon version are not available as they bootloader is can't be unlocked.

Thanks

Do you think that the global rom is going to work also?

Yeah we should be able to flash the global ROM.
But in the meantime, you can unlock your bootloader.
I don't know if it's necessary.

Update:
I unlocked my Bootloader. Yesss.
Sadly, I can't get it to boot after flashing a patched Magisk_boot.img.
Just keeps bootlooping, as soon as I flash the stock boot.img, its fine.
Its MIUI 10.4.8 China version.

Hi for Fastboot flash you need this:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.4.1.0....XM_20190920.0000.00_9.0_global_4d1cf1401a.tgz

Nope, can't get it flashed either.

Hi,
Will this ROM work on Rerdmi Note 8 Pro with 6GB/128GB storage?

People say that relocking the bootloader while you have global rom on chinese version would brick the phone, is it true for Note 8 Pro? Aliexpress sellers are selling CN phones with global rom with no warning of bricking.

I've just unloced mine but after flashing, device still into bootloop and no fastboot mode allowed........

I have absolutely no way to know if this model is compatible with your carrier. But if it's currently working fine now, then it should also work after you do the flash

I took the phone from a good price market I don't know if it is blacklisted or if the sim card unlock is temporary for fear of flashing an Android 12 update and seeing the phone locked by Samsung

LG Wing 5g (LM-F100TMW) Dual Sim Variant

Hi! I need some info on how will i be able to find the correct kmz or firmware for this variant. As what the title says, it is a LM-F100TMW with Android version 11.
When i try to check via IMEI on LGROM, it says that i am using a LM-F100EMW variant from TAIWAN or TWN. I already downloaded the recommended firmware from that website but I'm still not sure if it is the right one.
Just needed to make sure, you know? Haha! Thanks!

If it's not the correct firmware,LGUP will give you an error saying you can't swap firmware from region_x to region_z as an example.

Is there a problem if I install Indonesian ROM with NFC on Globlal model without NFC?

Will the phone get hard pricked or something?
P.S I change ROMs using miflashtool.

Most probably yes! I have seen cases when devices got hard bricked die to flashing ROMs of different model even when the change in model was not huge. Why do you want to flash a firmware of different model on your device in the first place?
