G4 china motherboard - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I recently replaced my italian G4 monosim motherboard H815EU updated with nougat with a new chinese unlocked monosim motherboard. Every thinks is ok but now I have MM 6.0 operating system. I want to know how I can update it to nougat even without knowing the model example H815EU, H815TR, H815L, H815P. Can I read on my phone with some hidden menù/phone code the exactly model? Or it doesn't matter and can I upgrade with my previous nougat rom image H815EU downloaded on xda just last year?
I downloaded the image here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/h815-nougat-stock-locked-bootloader-t3709119

In short, can I update to nougat with this procedure https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/h815-nougat-stock-locked-bootloader-t3709119 choosing the H815EU rom even if the motherboard is Chinese or I need to find an alternative system?

You can check the model version with SALT. Its part of the UsU method, which you probably don't need, but the salt tool will tell you exactly what model you have

You probably don't have to do the whole process, just the verification part with SALT

If you have no idea what you're doing, don't do anything.

One only learns by doing ?
I would recommend caution, however ?

Then thats your problem
Theres no current explots for Lollipop
Downgrade back to KitKat and you can root it and install bumped Lollipop if you wish
Ahh ok. Many thanks. I bought the phone with 5.0 already installed. I think I might just wait for when 5.0 root becomes available.

Pretty sure you can downgrade it if you can find the right KDZ
1) What does it say under software version?
2) Is it carrier branded?
3) What part of Europe are you from? I might be able to find the KDZ for you
Software version V20f-EUR-XX
and I believe it's not carrier branded.

How can I update my lg g4 from VERIZON to marshmallow?

My LG is on 5.1.1 , but I saw some persons with marshmallow on this device, or im wrong?
I can't download an OTA, because the phone said it is already up to date.

its your G4 bootloader unlockable.? not all are.. with locked bootloader you cant on MM.. but you can root it if you are in LP... but you also need to make sure you can downgrade to LP as some have antirollback that will brick if downgrade..

20-i its tmobile right if yes then read the reply and click the link.
You should wait for the OTA for 20-0 because once rooted OTA will cause bootloops. But if you dont wanna upgrade then follow below link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...ck-guide-h811-20-o-bootloader-unlock-t3421589
This is very strange because I have H815, not 811
I unlock bootloader via official Lg page
Install TWRP also no problem
But when I wanna install coustom room, phone bootpool and I must use LGBridge to back v20i

on G2 all variants have different names.. you cant mistake... but i remember someone said 20i so i assumed he meant for h811. and they said i was misleading information.. that it was for H815.. i then hover mouse over link and in fact had 20i H815... so am i right.. all variants in G4 are different names letters..

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.
