[Q] Region code firmware - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have a G3 D855 16gb; european version. I flashed my Phone with the new v10L firmware but by accident I took the global version instead of the v10l-EUR-xx. But even using Flash Tool 2014 trying to get it back to stock firmware, no matter what I try, any firmware will say it's global now on my Phone. I'm sure I downloaded the EUR-KDZ file. Anyone has any idea how this is possible, or how to fix this?
Thank you in advance!

Not sure it matters. I thought it based version suffix on imei number. I flashed international/european but it says SEA.

I really hope so indeed! I just can't find a way to fix it...

[Q] Where is my G3 really from ?

Hello all, I have a question. I would like your opinion. I want to return my G3 to LG Official stock with OTA working etc, just like it was when I first bought it. So I'm looking to flash the proper and right kdz, but I came across a "problem" .
I have the International 16GB D855. The sticker on the box says that it's " 6SW(Switzerland) " , but when I'm searching on http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php the firmware based on my IMEI, it says that the firmware is 6ES ( Spain ).
So what firmware am I supposed to really flash? Is the IMEI one the right one since it searches the phone on LG's Servers?
But then again , the 6SW version hasn't gotten Lollipop update yet, the latest 6SW firmware is version V10L, while my G3 got the Lollipop OTA version V20F before I downgraded it, root and flashed it custom Firmware.
What is your opinion? Sorry for the long post and thank you very much.

You can flash any compatible EURO rom on to your device, like the latest German D855 rom ending with 20H. Link https://mega.co.nz/#!AMoUjCQY!llgH-KlTB4J0paynnnGpIq0ANCAEtXjmUvpx8G8ApQM and flash with LG Flash Tool.
BTW: did you backup your EFS folder?

[Q] Want to flash 4.4 on my D855 - what does 20H or 10A mean at the end of kdz?

I intend to flash 4.4 on my d855 which is currently running 5.0.
This site (csmg.lgmobile. com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=35xxxxxxxxxxxx) gives me the following info when I search on my IMEI:
<model>LGD855</model>
<sw_version>D85520H_00</sw_version>
D855 is the model number, right. The 20H part, I'm not so sure of. The rom I assume I am going to flash is named Northern Europe D85510A_00.kdz. The same, but with 10A at the end.
So I'm wondering. Does 20H at the end of the KDZ file simply mean Android 5.0, and 10A means Android 4.4? I need to know so that I don't flash an incorrect rom. If it means what I think it means, it is the right ROM. Right?
Link to the ROM: storagecow .eu /Xda/LG%20G3/Stock/Northern%20Europe%20D85510A_00.kdz
Thanks! :good:

D855 is model number.
10/20 means 4.4.2/5.0 respectively.
A-Z letter at the end of firmware version means subversion. 10A is first 4,4,2 firmware, 20A is first LL firmware and so on.

Thank you. Do you have any idea where to acquire this info on the net about the layout of Android software model names? Have googled without any success.

Nowhere. Each OEM names them in his own unique way.

on 10b SEA and want the upgraded EU

hi guys im on SEA singapore 10b, and im seeing a few people who flashed the EU version and upgraded to 10f or 10e. can someone post which varaint exaclty to FLASH? what is alowed? maybe post a link? . im afraid to flash the wrong one and to brick my phone.
also after flashing will i still get OTA updates from that variant?
thanks for helping
My advice
If you are inexperienced, Simply don't flash any coz it isn't worth
I cant test myself because I already have EU variant so whats the point for me?
Otherwise flash an entire EU build if there is SEA stock ROM available to flash back if you mesh up
Yesterday I flashed 10e version I found here, my main goal was to get rid of the missing tapas problem I experienced.
Well I think it's better but not 100 %. I'm thinking now maybe 10f will fix the problem. Searching for a download of eu open

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?

LG Wing from KOR to EUR

Is there any way to convert my Korean (KT) LG Wing to EUR firmware? I really can't stand all the bloatware the KT version has. I tried some quides but no luck
I'd be interested in learning how to do this too
Hi,
Did anyone get any success in changing the rom to EUR?
Hi,
I have a LG WING LM-F100EMW , Indian variant. I have been tracking the software updates of the phone and found out that, there have been atleat 4 updates in other countries like in Germany, Poland, Spain, each having the same model no, just different regions, and here in India we have received only 2 updates.
I had been searching several forums and have been trying to install other region firmware on my LG wing, but have been unsuccessful.
I had been using LGUP software 1.16 with LGUP_common.dll 2.1 .
The error which I am getting is , UNABLE TO CHANGE REGION FROM COM55_EU5 TO COM5_EU1
I have searched through other forums and have not been able to find anything.
If someone have the idea, how this can be avoided and I am able to install other region firmware on the phone, as i have read at many places that you can install other region firmwares till the model no is same.
hi,
it would be intresting if anyone can share the guide to change from Korean firmware to EU
Hi everyone, someone find solution ?
you would use LG Up for this. Korean models should be flashable, but be careful. This is how I bricked my LG Wing
Thanks for your answer, but i tried and i get message says impossible to do it. It's stop automatically. I have others option, I'm scared to brick the phone. Is it irreversible ?
