Stock Images for RETLA and RETAIL updates channels.

Here is the link for the stock images for those 2 updates channels. Due to HW changes in those models, I recommend to not try to flash RETAIL on RETLA devices, you can end no NFC, because of the lack of this on USA variant.
RETAIL
7.0 NPN25.137-33 LINK
RETLA (Mexico-Brazil-Chile-etc...)
7.0 NPN25.137-15 LINK
Hope it is usefull for you guys.
Bye!
My device is retin channel. Im from india.
Are Brazil models and india ones different.
We have 2 versions here 3gb ram 16gb rom and 4gb ram 32gb rom.
I guess that indian and latino variants are the same... NFC and no compass. If you want to risk, you can try installing. first verify your latest version. I noticed that USA variant is on 137-33 and we al others are on 137-15.

No, you cannot. The bootloader is locked and the Amazon version has a different signing key. The amazon version even has a different software channel than RETAIL.
retail version works on EU version?

My firmware version on the Amazon version of the g5 plus is NPN25.137-33.
Maybe a possibility to flash a modified version of the OEM.img in rsdlite to remove Amazon branding?

The bootloader is locked and will not accept modification to any image on the device. Modifying OEM.img or applying a different OEM.img will not work. This is because when your bootloader is locked the images need to be signed with the proper key that Motorola only has. When a file is modified in a signed image it changes the signature of the image and causes it to fail the preflash validation checks that the bootloader performs for any file that is written during flashing.
Sorry to break it to you dude, but you're kind of stuck until someone finds a juicy exploit that allows you to assume root permissions. Once you have root, you should be able to debloat to your heart's delight.
Hi
i wanted to ask if someone flashes the RETLA image, except for the NFC is there a possibility that the compass will work ?
Because the EU versions they don't have the compass and have the NFC and for the US version it's the opposite
which one is indian version??

it is not a software thing, it is hardware, any variant but US lacks of compass sensor. In the other hand, US is the only than lacks of NFC hw.

The Amazon version in particular has a locked bootloader, so software is also an issue if and only if you have the Amazon Prime version of the G5 Plus...

What software channel do the Amazon variants have? I'm on "lra" so I'm wondering if this might be the Amazon version. There are no ads though. I bought it from eBay.

Zs620kl is global version. (Like mine, produced in Brazil)
Zs621kl is indian version(specifically produced in India). That's all.
I am considering buying a rerurb'ed ZS621KL. Is there a fully unlocked bootliader, TWRP, etc for it? Or would it simply use the same ones as the ZS620KL?

Actually, there is a method to root most G7 models, except the T-Mobile one at the moment (G710TM/G710TMP/G710TMO/G710TMP).

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.
