[Q] D802 can version be changed? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone
I recently purchased this unit in the store as unlocked international version. Since from that time we did not get out, for me more important update I never paid attention to the actually version of my phone. One time i got an update and install it ower the LG PC Suite. After that update I noticed that my phone installed a lot of applications that were on the Portuguese language, but since I could delete them I was not too worried. But today when came out official lollipop for D802 I went to the official lg page where I have seen that my device actually: "6MP / TMN (Portugal)". Is there a possibility to change it, because the last update that I received for this device was v20c?
I do not want to lose the guarantee on the device.
I apologize for my bad english.

n900-w8 Updating Rooted Device

Hey guys, so I apologize if this is a stupid question or if it has already been asked before (did a quick search and didn't see anything relating to the w8 note)
My girlfriend has a n900-w8 too and she has got 3 updates since the day we got them (she doesn't root her phone) but I rooted my phone the day we got them, am I going to have to full unroot my phone, then update, then re-root? or is there a 'patch' type file i can use or something more a long those lines?
Don't get me wrong I hate touchwiz, but the only ROM's I like are cyanogenmod and PAC-rom which neither are released for the note 3 yet... *sigh*

[Q] OTA update

Hi everyone. LG G2 is my first LG phone with android, since I have had only samsung phones untill now(S2, Note2 & Note3) and I 'm new in flashing LG phones.
Well, when I bought G2, it was from T-Mobile, it had 4.2.2 branded. Since I'm living in Greece, I flash 4.2.2 d80210e (open Greece 16GB) and I had no problems since.
Then kitkat was releasted. I ve waited and waited but OTA update never came. I folow the guide in xda forum and tried to flash it, but I was unsuccessful (I have win7 on virtual server in mac os 10.9 so its a little complicate). I plugged the in a friend of mine's pc with lg pc suite and automatically the phone updated to 4.4.2, but my phone was again t-mobile branded!!
After that in my friends pc I successfully flashed the phone to d80220b 4.4.2 open Greece. Yesterday, there has been releasted an update to my firmware in Greece, but no OTA update for me!! When I put my phone in download mode it states "rooted"(!?). Ive never rooted my phone.
Is there a way after I flash the g2 to the latest d80220d open Greece to have OTA update capabilities or is there a way to unable OTA updates now so that my phone will recieve the updates?

[Q] Is it possible to go form KK UAE to KK UK?

I'm currently using kitkat on my international LG G2 which was bought from Emirates so it has software version D80220a-AME-XX (got this on air like 2 months ago) but I want to install a fresh new copy of KitKat UK on it. Before downloading that hefty update file for the Kikat version of UK, I wanna know if the updater will allow me to update from Kitkat UAE to Kitkat UK without any problems or it will deny it for whatever reason(s)? (e.g. a reason such as that it allows only updates from an older version to a newer version but not from newer to newer...etc)
Thanks in advance!
The reason for trying to escape this version is that I issue some weird stuff with network coverage being faulty for some time and I realize this only by coincidence by trying to call any one on my list but I get a message like "network error" with any number I attempt to call so after I rebooted and restarted, the error disappeared & also got a bunch of text messages informing me of missed called from people tried to call during that error which I realized by coincidence!

The answer is "yes, it is possible, as long as you do it manually".
The official LG Updater will not flash the UK firmware to your device, there is no option to tell it which firmware to install or upgrade to. It picks the firmware according to your IMEI.
You have to follow this guide. Good luck.
Cheers.

Be sure if you are using the same version as you mentioned. Now a days refurbished phones are being sold on online stores. In which they usually change the parts of the phone , like motherboard . Suppose you are downloading software for 320L but motherboard being used in your phone is from sprint model then you can get into trouble .
got infos using lg phone from,should they be sure no? plus i think phone it's new.That arrived to me with original packaging and really perfect inside and outside

Upgrade android on a chinese phone

Hey guys, first time posting so I hope I'm in the right sub.
Here is the thing:
- I bought a phone from a reseller which was sold to me as an SM-G930F with Android Oreo
- When it came home, I noticed it was running Marshmallow, and with further research it appears that the phone is actually the chinese SM-G9300 & it doesn't allow OTA updates
- I got a refund but I could keep the phone
The actual firmware is G9300ZCU2APG2
So the question is: am I able to upgrade that SM-G9300 to Oreo? If so, do I have to install a custom ROM running Oreo, flash a european firmware (or custom?) to allow the update?
