UK Three stock ROM - Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers

Does anyone know where to get hold of the UK stock ROM.
P2a42_S056_161130_uk
Made the rookie mistake of not backing up before change to the stock Row rom.

Could do with this too, the Row rom is proving to be really buggy and unstable despite factory reset. I've read it's difficult to downgrade though?

4GB Super Voice
I would also like a copy of this, I think the stock firmware contained settings for 4G Super Voice which made 4G reception better. - three.co.uk/Discover/network/4G-Supervoice
I am finding myself on HSDPA allot more since going to the ROW ROM.

On the stock Three firmware there were no settings for VOLTE/4G super voice.
I flashed the ROW firmware and it been running really well. No crashes, no bugs and the 4G reception is very good.
There are also now settings inside the network settings for "Enhanced 4G voice" or something along those lines which is VOLTE/Super voice.
However it doesn't appear to work and it still switches to 3G to make calls.

Because the UK is better than the ROW rom? They are the same with the only difference than the stock Three UK rom has a preinstalled bloatware!

My only reason is that my LG urbane on aw 2.0 connected fine with that ROM, But does not seem to the ROW Rom.
If i could get a resolution for that i would be happy, but can't seem to get any other advised than reset both and try again, which has been done a few times.

Which bloatware?

All I found were the 3x Three apps. My Three, Three in Touch and another one which I can't remember (Three suggestions or something).
They can just be uninstalled if you don't want them.

I need this too as my device has to go in for service. Anyone have access to the stock Three UK firmware?

The nougat update.zip file in developer section is an official firmware i was using it for about 2 months untill i rooted. Now i am using the Nougat deodexed version which is also the same rom but with a few tweaks here and their and all bloat removed and i seem to get volte in even more locations now.

Thanks, but the Three UK FW is customised. need this version installed before I send for service.

oh sorry i didnt realise it was for sending in for service what happened?

Actually, I have resolved the issue now but I still would like the FW for the future if anyone has access to it. As for the problem had: I foolishly set the band to USA in the service menu. This made it impossible to make calls or connect to a 2G/3G network. I tried resetting the handset, rolling back to MM, upgrading back to N but nothing resolved the issue until I came across a post earlier today on an old Moto thread. A simple modem erase using ADB resolved the issue. All back to normal now. Phew!

Anybody got a link to this firmware ?

Finding the right stock firmware

Hi,
I have a galaxy s4 mini gt-i9515 lte on the three network on the UK. I'm currently running cyanogenmod nightly but wish to flash back to stock for gear compatibility.
I'm having trouble working out the right stock rom.
The only one that matches my baseband is the Spain movistar rom.
Is that right? Will that have me all Spanish? What would happen of I flashed the rom for three? The baseband doesn't match, but I don't know if that's an issue?
Thanks.
I have the same as yourself and after looking on SAMMOBILE and other places I would be wondering what to use too. I'm not sure what the last update 3 have released in the UK but it looks like it might have been XXUAMF5 which you can download from here. I have a copy of it I downloaded last year as a go to stock ROM if I needed it. You can always use Kies to check for updates after.
Excellent, will give that a go. The movistar one appears to have "issues"
RIght, so the H3G one didn't work as I've got an unlocked phone from Carphone Whorehouse. So I had to go with the BTU I9515XXUBML4, and that "works" only my NFC won't turn on and my wireless is INCREDIBLY unstable, just stopping providing any network connections.
Is that likely to be a "Wrong Stock ROM" issue, generic Stock Rom Issue, or an "I've messed my phone up" issue?
Ran just fine on Cyanogenmod, and I had /some/ wifi issues on the original ROM, but not like this...

I doubt you have messed up the phone. There is a collection of ROMs here. Perhaps you need to flash a compatible kernel rather than the CM one. Sounds like you don't need a branded ROM or anything.

I bought a similar refurbished phone from Aliexpress and the system information is the same as yours. I think they just messed with the build.prop so the build information looks ready for Europe. I will advise you to install the kdz so you have the Stock ROM and firmware. That was what I did anyway. The only porblem is that you will get some Korean apps but the phone is stable anyway. And when flashing, use "CSC" not "Normal" flash.
By the way, my phone was lagging very much before I installed the Stock ROM.

[Australia] HTC 10 Australian

Hi guys,
I got my HTC 10 last week - phone is a big improvement from the m8.
I am running Telstra's latest firmware - Have s-off already...
Telstra's latest firmware is 1.53.841.6 with Leedroid ROM - have been trying to get VOLTE.
I never got VOLTE with stock because I rooted so fast and S-OFF and installed custom ROMs.
So I had to install stock system image 1.53.841.6, reinstall stock recovery and factory reset and VOLTE icon shows up instantly. Install TWRP and VOLTE remains. But if you install a custom rom and do a full wipe seem to lose VOLTE. Also have to have the telstra firmware to VOLTE to work, I tried with WWE and no go. Also had to ring up telstra as it wasn't activated. So if you are having trouble getting it - might be best to double check. Even though my provisioned flag was on. *#*#4636#*#* to check - tap phone info.
@xlrate reported not wiping data and installing VIPER was able to keep VOLTE. (Updated the customize folder in the rom with my Telstra back up, also the build prop to do this) Also TELST001 cid has to be on.
Has anyone got VOLTE working on a custom ROM on WWE Firmware?
So Aussies... Who's got their new HTC 10?

Telstra OREO update
http://fotadl-az.htc.com/secure/OTA....48.841.31_release_519847tp9bagwfkglchg5u.zip
@Sneakyghost isn't doing the firmware updates anymore.
If you need to use the firmware.zip out of the OREO zip and need to a custom recovery either replace the recovery.img with twrp.img (rename it of course) in the firmware.zip - or flash one after installation.
I got mine about a month ago.. All I've done so far is root it.. (even after all these years, it still sounds wrong)
I normally run ARHD, but, Mike hasn't mentioned developing for the 10, so, I'm stuck atm, not really interested in running a massively modded ROM. But, last night the OTA notification popped up for 1.53.841.6.. So, I'm going to have to do something - the notification is annoying me. So, I guess I have to work out how to update it.
I hadn't even considered the VoLTE requirements.. I just assumed it would all work, even on a custom ROM. 4G did, I didn't think this would be any different.
Is VoLTE worth hanging on to? I don't really get it.. Is it like VOIP for mobiles?

I have had VoLTE working with Leedroid after I used the telstra 1.53 system/customize & parts of the build.prop on the 1.30 base... Haven't been able to get it working on 1.80 base.
Have had to use the telstra firmware for it work, doesn't work on WWE. So it is kinda a pain to get working.
VoLTE is better call quality and if you are on a call you can use LTE/4g to use the internet... Without VoLTE when on calls your phone 3g
EDIT - don't think OTA will work since you are rooted unless you went systemless root
I guess I don't 'appreciate' VoLTE as much as I should, because I rarely make phone calls..
Sadly, not Systemless root. So, I think I need to go back to stock, update and re-root. It's not something I've had to worry about before. So, it's kinda frustrating, and a little too complicated for me to totally understand.
I was going to de-brand it, and just run the WWE RUU.. But, maybe I'll wait for the 1.80 Telstra update and worry about it then.
I got rid of the notification

Anyone experiencing an issue with NFC? While on stock 1.21.841.8 (and locked), worked without issue. Since updating to 1.53.841.6 (and unlocked), can't read my Opal card now ie no vibration, no sound, no anything. Haven't tested my tap & pay banking app yet (which did work without issue prior to updating).
Yes I also had and issue with NFC. Would not read opal card and was an absolute pain to try and read my Amex and Visa card.
Ended up getting another issue with it and returned the phone under warranty for NFC and the other issue.
Still waiting to get a phone back ?

Yeah NFC doesn't work with mine now on 1.53.
I did get a vibrate and a sound when I was on earlier firmware but not now.
Just hoping that the 1.8 update fixes this stuff.......

Tried reflashing the 1.53 firmware again (twice) to see if it fixes it, but it's still not working ie Can switch it on and off, but it does not respond to my opal card.
It's only taken Telstra until this month to push out 1.53, so who knows when (or if) 1.80 will happen. Now I'm trying to decide whether it's worth sending back for another handset or waiting to see if the next OTA will fix it. My biggest concern is that the replacement could be on 1.21 and I could possibly end up with the same issue all over again!

I just tried to NFC on 1.53 and it isn't working very well, hardly at all. I got it to work 3 times in about 15 mins...
Previously I think when I was on 1.30 firmware it was working well before but just had to hold it near the head phone jack.
Any Telstra users want to test out the Telstra firmwares

Make sure you back-up the rom & back up internal storage refer to later posts in that thread.
https://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/Device-Updates/Software-Updates-01-07-2016/td-p/585953 Telstra 1.80.841.8 firmware is coming 25-Jul
Leedroid is the best rom for Telstra users. Running it myself and working perfectly, now supports Telstra with carrier support & VoLTE working - thanks @LeeDroid
*Only works on Telstra firmware.
Install Ice yesterday (only got my phone Friday ), really like it over the stock rom.
Some people complained about the LED but I like it. My only complaint about my M8 was how bright the LED was specially in the dark when you're trying to get to sleep.
Another problem I'm having is file transfers freeze when using a USB 2 port on Windows 10.
I like my new M10 but not sure if I like it over the M8 as of yet. I preferred the speaker arrangement on the M8 and having the home, back buttons etc on the screen rather then down the bottom.
I have to admit I'm not a fan of the "Samsung" look at all which is why I bought HTC in the past to begin with. I didn't want to be a part of the flock.
Hey guys,
I'm looking to get the 10 but imported, could someone (especially looking for someone with Optus) check their box to see what specific model it is (e.g. 10h or 10u)?
Thanks guys
The Telstra model is a HTC 10h
ICE (InsertCoin) v2.0.6 supports Telstra also now too. Thanks @baadnewz

Found out that Telstra's policy for DOA/ELF replacements are within 30 days of purchase. Since a return will result in a repair, I'll wait to see if the OTA will fix the NFC issue first before sending back.
Has anyone experienced an NFC issue on Telstra stock, only to have it disappear after switching to a cusom ROM?

Latest G930U firmware (PL2) on G930V is a success.

I decided to try the latest U-firmware on my G930V. I had issues with previous G930U builds having SMS/MMS issues. I gave PL2 a shot yesterday and I've been really happy with it. The phone is very snappy and everything works as designed. Verizon visual voicemail can't be used, but it's not a huge deal. VoLTE works well. You can download My Verizon from the Play Store. I'd highly recommend this firmware compared to the previous builds. Make sure to enable the Verizon APN in APN settings after install.
I'd like to note that my phone is completely stock at this point, NOT ROOTED, so I didn't need to apply any fixes to make things work. You should be able to root without issue if that's your thing.
Downloading the firmware from Sammobile takes FOREVER, so I uploaded it to my AFH account to cut down on that download time for you guys.
G930UUEU4APL2
Backup using Smart Switch, then use Odin and flash ALL 4 files. Do yourself a favor and don't use HOME_CSC. It'll make things much smoother if you don't.
Let me know if anyone runs into any issues. I know in the past, some have had great experience with the U-firmware and others had issues with no reception. I want to see if the same holds true for this build.
Is this update in January?
Update: Yup, I took it last month and everything was OK. I am on Verizon Rom now just expecting it receives Nougat earlier than U furmware, which updates quarterly.

I was hoping Verizon would see the official Nougat by this point. I liked the feel of the U-firmware, but reception was a problem for me on Verizon. I decided I'd give the latest U-firm a shot since waiting for official Verizon Nougat seems like a lost cause at this point. I'll stay with this until Nougat is officially released. This firmware is the December update, and since they update it quarterly, an update should be around the corner. Maybe the next U-firmware will be Nougat. I think Nougat-U would be damn near flawless lol.
I've been running it since beginning of January no Issues
What exactly are the benefits of flashing this? Do I get 7.0? How is the reception? What are the cons?
I have a pretty big problem. I attempted flashing the 4 files with Odin 3.09. After a couple of seconds the operation terminated and now my GS7 is stuck in a bootloop. Whats worse is that when i attempted to boot into recovery, now it shows a blue screen with the android logo that says "installing system update" for about 2 seconds then shuts off, then tries again. Does anyone know how to fix this, at least so I can flash stock back on it?
Update: Fixed it, was able to get into download mode and use odin to flash stock. The flash failed but it was able to trip the OS and recovery back to normal for some reason.

No carrier bloat and a very smooth OS. The reception is great. The cons are that you don't get any of the carrier features, like WiFi calling, visual voicemail, ect.

Odin 3.9 might be too old. I've used Odin 3.11 or higher on the S7 and have never had any issues.
thanks to you it works perfectly but HOME_CSC failed and caused recovery bootloop after that i tried other CSC and it was successful. I've got very upset on V firmware because they deleted a lot of features on galaxy S7. they are worst

I'm still having issues with this latest firmwire. I do get LTE but not network connection. I still have circle with a line through it indicating that I don't have service. the service will come on for a second and then cut out. Service is called "123456".
Did you choose the APN to use? If you are using a Verizon SIM card, then it should give you the option to use Verizon, but you need to select it.

So there's APN settings and Network Operators. I'm actually using a verizon MVNO called boom mobile. If I selected "verizon" network, I get a notification that says " no service - selected netweork verizon not available". The other one's that show up from the selection are ATT, T mobile, and some 310830 thing. None of them work. I use automatic network detection.
As far as APN settings, I do use Verizon and I get LTE data from that. I just don't get the phone service connection.

Hmmm. This is passed my level of experience then. I'm only familiar with setting up and using authentic Verizon service. I can't speak for other services that use Verizon's network.

Everything works well on Verizon and it feels great to have a clean phone & freedom to switch. I think it's worth waiting a little more for Nougat.
p.s. Anyone has an idea on when official G930U Nougat will be released?
Will this work for my AT&T S7 on PJ4 firmware?
jOdin3
hey guys,
this is the first non-nexus phone i've used, and I am excited about flashing the U firmware to get a clean stock experience on my g930v. I was wondering what files i should input in jOdin under the PDA/Bootloader/CSC/Phone fields after I extract the zip file SM-G930U? I have searched tried to watch some insufferable youtube videos on the matter have had no luck finding an answer. Also since I'm asking, is it possible to flash this firmware with jOdin3, sorry for the newbie questions, didn't know where else to go.
Thanks in advance to any helpful replies.
Solved the above, no need for replies.
Next though is when I try and flash using Jodin3 the pit file is acquired, the phone reboots and then it stays disconnected and I am unable to start the process after the phone reboots. Any suggestions?
Solved the above by using heimdall to extact pit.
I am close to giving up and flashing anything via jOdin3 I have tried pretty much everything to flash new firmware with no success, latest error is that there is a corrupt file, need to use Odin file...
HAS ANYONE had success flashing a Verizon S7 on macOS? if so please tell me where to go.
How can I get 930u to 930v?

Flash the Verizon firmware from the Verizon threads

Official T-Mobile Nougat ROM on Verizon Galaxy S7

Right now you can flash official T-mobile nougat rom for Verizon galaxy s7 (G930V). It's seem everything work fine. Here's how to do that:
- Download official T-mobile nougat rom from updato.com (search for T-mobile nougat rom by enter "G930T" in search field - sorry I cannot post link because of XDA's policies)
- Flash rom to galaxy s7 G930V with odin (like any other 6.0 roms)
Done! Now we have final Nougat on Verizon Galaxy S7 G930V
I've been seeing threads on this and the G930U firmware working as well. Has anyone else tried the tmobile rom this way? No root?
You can flash any rom to any snapdragon S7 as long as you match the correct model. ie don't flash Edge firmware on a regular S7.
Does LTE and VoLTE still work after flashing the tmo rom?

I'm actually pretty excited about doing it this way... Are there any downfalls to flashing the T-Mobile ROM? LTE still working data working no dropped calls? Considering flashing over to this when I get off of work anyway just to try it out would like to know if anyone can confirm everything will still work
Don't we have to flash the verizon csc
If you flash the TMOBILE rom your phone will not work with Verizon and you most likely will not be able to flash back to Verizon until there is a Verizon nougat factory image. With the S7 you cannot flash back to an older bootloader and I would think the TMOBILE nougat rom has a newer bootloader.

I flashed t-mobile rom on my S7 G930V and seemed everything works fine. But I'm not in US to try some Verizon features. I then flashed back to G930U rom on my S7.

I was reading the s7 edge forum. They have a 5th file called boot recovery image file tar. Do we not need that one also. Just asking before I flash this
I think it might be helpful if I address a few things. After using this image for about a day, I decided to go back to the U firmware
- Cellular does not work (duh). Renders the "phone" aspect useless.
- The T-Mobile logo is sickening
- Reverting back to stock is very simple. Just flash the V or U firmware and you're good to go. Same process as flashing the T firmware.

Agreed. I flashed this last night, and I must say the official nougat really looks and feels a lot smoother and prettier than the beta. LOL but I agree to a certain point about the mobile cellular network not working only mine was working, I just had terrible cell signal... And only connected to 3G. No LTE. Also wasn't showing my network, network name was 12345678 lol moral of the story I reverted back lol.
On a side note yes you can flash back to the Verizon firmware. I flash back to the API3 and then back to the nougat beta from there. Smart switched everything back and it's like I never left. Lol

Now that I think about it I didn't flash the CSC file because I read somewhere that it would not work with a Verizon (MNVO) sim

Not using verizon, i live in Mexico and using movistar i really love this nougat update and hope the U nougat be ready to stsrt roll out and no bloatware at all! xD
I wonder when/if the official update comes out, will it work with Gear VR? I understand the "betas" do not work with the Samsung Gear VR under Nougat. Just curious.

Did you have Wifi Calling after installing new firmware? I got a S7 (SM-G390V) on verizon and switched carriers to tmobile, however i can't send/receive images in text. "wifi calling" has been disabled by evil verizon (doesn't appear)..... i want to flash the firmware to enable it to "hopefully" solve my issue. Just wondering if that will appear afterwards....

ugh...ok. i thought that putting tmobile rom on verizon s7 would display/enable that feature (apps/setting/advanced calling)....need to find another solution for mms images
If i was one of you on the flat screen version i would flash the CSC file and the boot recovery image file from the S7 Edge setup and follow directions there. What can it hurt? If it doesn't work you just oden back to whatever you want. You cant use it as it is anyways as you have no real Verizon data with out those files. It's soo much better than the beta! Only thing i haven't got is WiFi calling and visual voice mail.
