[Q] F180K Firmware Update and Other Problems

Hi all.
I've recently purchased an LG Optimus G (F180K) through an online reseller. The phone was unlocked and works on my local carrier. Please excuse me if the following problems have already been answered in other forums but this is my first smartphone (moving from a Nokia XPressMusic 5530) and I'm having difficulty understanding all this talk about flashing and basebands and what not.
I want to know how to update it to Jelly Bean since Android 4.1.2 has already been released for the F180K in South Korea. Software Update reports that I'm using the latest update available. I see that there are stock 4.1.2 ROMs available for the F180K in the forums. Would installing that be different from updating through official channels? Also, my lockscreen shows the dual roaming clock and I am unable to change it as the settings are greyed out when I check under Global Roaming. Does anyone know how to change this? I've searched around and someone suggested to manually edit settings.apk or something similar to that but I don't know how to go about it. Lastly, I want to get rid of the pre-installed Olleh apps and remove the Korean characters from the dialler. It would also be nice to get English versions of QVoice and the other LG apps.
I would really appreciate it if someone could walk me through these things. Thank you very much in advance.

Flashing Stock ROM

Hi!
Im new to the G4. I am from Austria and bought it online. I got following Version:
Factory Version
LGH815AT-00-V10c-TWN-XX-Aug-18-2015
SW Original Version
LGH815AT-00-V10c-OPT1-YT-Aug-18-2015
When I read right, this is the TWN Version and thats always one of the most new ones?
Would it eventought be possible to, for example, flash the EUR Open?
I'm asking because i got an Update for LG Health but not in german.
Would I have any disadvantages?
Thanks in advance!

Did you eventually find out whether it's safe to flash the Open version or not?

Which Version do I have?

So I bought the LG Optimus G E977 from Amazon. I dont know which version I have. (Brazil, Chile, etc etc). I dont know what determines that. I need the info so I can upgrade to Android KitKat. If someone can find me the official upgrade link, that would be greatly appreciated (I looked myself to no avail). Thanks in advance!!

Did you try Application for download Original LG Firmware?
Info: this tools needs .NET Framework 4.0 is installed just in case you use Windows 7 or below.
Edit:
You also can use "KDZ_1_4" to download your Firmware but you need to search it at Google because i dont found it on XDA.

Do LG G3 D855 international version needs to be unlocked

I was checking on internet that my phone is unlocked or not but it is in my mind that it is an international version and also global update for it is also available so can we use it in any of the countries which are meant for international version without any problem

No, just use dumped TWRP ( find them in G3 Android Development )

Is this a question or a statement? What are you looking for?

Put another carrier's sim in it and see if it asks for a code; if so, you'll need to unlock it. You can buy your code for @ $3.99 (US) on ebay.

I used different carriers on it and they worked perfectly ....

Except in this case the EM version is the only one aside Italian TIM version which can currently be unlocked.
You don't have to take our word for it, check supported devices and see for yourself.

EM version is not international, it's European market version. It's available only for European markets so it's understood that it can be unlocked, each and every LG model in Europe were able to unlock up from G4
International are those versions which are selling outside of USA and European markets, namely for Africa+ AME, CIS, SEA, Latin AM

the Latin g5 840 doesn't even have the same 820 chip it's the 652 I guess jcadduono was wrong to when he made the International version twrp for 850 I included a pic so we can start working together on root also nimax rom we worked hard and had to drop the international version because ceaser or I had the International version we went to 20m 2 updates
