Hello
I just been out verifying my phones stock firmware for h918TN 8668 elsa
So Ive been torn between 10i or 10j. I vaguely remember doing a test in the past that did a test on hardware or was it software.... i chose Kdz or was it kdz? in the test and it couldn't find any kdz or krz... vaguely recall it.
Anyways. im looking at the information that's on the phone directly under the battery.
Model# LG-H918 FCC# ZNFH918
H/W 1.0
S/W: V10c|
Do I install V10c as my stock?
Information that was in the about phone before I rooted
SW: H91810j
build: NRD90M
Kernel; 3.18.31
amdroid securitu patch 12.1.16
security software version MDF v.20 rls 4

Here's what I got:
Baseband: p6800xxla1
Build number: htj85b.zsla2 p6800zsla2
Any ideas?

I get the same thing. I'm not sure if my radio is supposed to be ZSLA2 as well.
I installed the ZSLA2 firmware from the official firmware thread. The tab never finds any updates even though it did when I first bought it (was on ZSLA2 originally too) and Kies said it's not compatible with firmware updates.
I think the baseband version may be the same. Other than not updating officially, have you had any problems? Im surprised to uave gotten my device and it was already rooted, debloated etc. I pit cwm on it and backed it up first thing.... but have been hesitant to flash roms until I can successfully get this thing back to stock. Having trouble getting mms to work. In the US and had to import this model. Wanted it over the verizon version for telephonics and the original samsung processor.
To what degree does it matter what firmware version you use? Been reading through the firmware thread and have only found partial answers.

Hey, I'm from Brazil and I own a H342 model of this phone.
I was thinking about installing the v20b marshmallow kdz released for H340 because I'm done with the ***ty, ugly and laggy 5.0.1 build that I'm stuck in, but I know that even if the processor is the same for both devices the baseband will still differ because my model is dual.
You know how can I install 6.0 and flash the baseband from the H342 after?
Sorry for any concordances errors and thank u for your time
Hi all I have the LG V20 the VS995,, when I bought the phone it was google frp I used Dirty santa to unlock the phone, software version VS99514b build NRD90M android security patch level april 1 2017 , kernel version 3.18.31

Yes. If you use LG Bridge, or take an OTA, your phone will be locked and there may not be a way to root it again.
Hi There !
I have recently bought LG V20 H910. It is on android 7.0 and its further details are as below:
Android security patch level: December 1, 2016
Build number: NRD90M
Software version: H91010i
Whenever i try to update the android, it says that there is no further update available. I tried both OTG as well as LG PC suite methods. When i tried searching for security patches on LG site, i got this info that latest patch is from March 2018.
I wanted to know how can i update my phone and why it says that there is no update available, when there is update available as per this LG site
My device is not rooted. I tried to root it earlier to install lineage OS (by following the guide). I am not a tech savvy kind of person at all.
Please help me with this.

Looks like you've the att model, are you actually on ATT? I've seen reports that if the att model doesnt have an ATT sim it wont find updates.

Well it seems so. I tried rooting it with kingoroot and it failed. Then i searched online for rooting solution and came to know that v20 cannot be rooted by these software because the bootloader is locked.. It needs another method (told in forums). Well i didn't try them.
I need some further help in this regards. I have few questions. I hope you can answer them.
1. If i unlock the bootloader and install twrp and then install the stock rom, CAN I INSTALL ANY stock rom, for example, stock rom of international model instead of at&t version?
2. I am using h910 but not with at&t sim. I am on other network. Will installing with official rom (other than at&t version), keep the gsm working>?

You could possibly flash the US996 which is the unlocked version, as far as updates you'll have to check and see if there's updates for it from LG, but the big concern would be determining what bands are available with that variant to see if they are compatible with your carrier, you can also check this forum and see if there's updated 996 roms that you could flash to get the latest security patches. But as the previous poster stated as long as you are on 910 rom and using another carrier's sim you'll never get an update from AT&T

Aight, so a couple of weeks ago I decided to finally accept the update that I always skipped, that pesky Android OREO (8.0) update was always harassing my notification panel and I finally decided to accept it and just update. What could go wrong?
After I updated, and saw that a few features were cool, I noticed something...
My phone was not charging even though it was connected to the charger. I tried airplane mode, I tried maximum power saving mode, I tried safe mode, I turned it off and nothing happened. It just didn't want to charge; some might say that it's just a battery issue, but I'm pretty sure that's not the case.
This happened right after I updated my lovely Nougat to Oreo.
So now I need help.
Here are my phone's specs:
*Build Number: R16NW.G930PVPU6CRE7
*SE for Android status: SEPF_SM-G930P_8.0.0_0008
*Fri May 25 20:35:22 2018
*Knox version: Knox 3.1, Knox API level 25, TIMA 3.3.0
*Security Software version: MDF v3.1 Release 2, WLAN v1.0 Release 1, VPN PP-MOD v2.1 Release 1.0, ASKS v1.4 Release 180123, FIPS BoringSSL v1.2, FIPS SKC v1.7, FIPS SCrypto v1.0, SMR Apr-2018 Release 1
*Android security patch level: April 1, 2018
*Model Number: SM-G930P
*IMEI: 353562085155911
*Software version: G930PVPU6CRE7
*Hardware version: REV0.6
*Android Version: 8.0.0 Oreo (I want 7, Nougat)
*Samsung Experience version: 9.0
*Baseband version: G930PVPU6CRE7
*Kernel version: 3.18.71-13585094, [email protected] #1
My phone is a SPRINT unlocked version, 32 gb. You can check out those specs; probably understand them a lot better than I do.
The thing is, I know that I'm going to have to root it in order to install a previous Android version (downgrade). I just don't want to take any risks with flashing the wrong firmware for my specific phone; I don't want to brick it.
So, can y'all please help me with choosing the right -my phone specific- firmware and stuff?
Giving me a step-by-step on how to successfully downgrade back to my 7.0 nougat would be a blessing too.
Thank You!

I cannot believe the charging problem is caused by Oreo. Try different chargers, and new USB cables. Google the issue to see if it's related to Oreo. If you are absolutely sure this is due to Oreo, then you may change it and root is not required.
Since the phone is still on bootloader 6, you may be able to downgrade to Nougat with the same version of bootloader. Flashing firmware is a complex process and phone may be easily bricked if anything goes wrong, so you need to understand what you are doing exactly. I would suggest to read thoroughly information related to Samsung Galaxy firmware update using Odin software. I usually get s7 firmware from two sites:
https://updato.com/

Switch off your phone then try charging?

Well, ironically, my mother got a new -android- phone a couple of days ago and my phone charges pretty fine with her charger. I guess it WAS a charger problem, but my charger works perfectly fine on my father's phone and not on mine; strange.
The thing is, although it can now charge, the super battery drainage is still there, and yes, I'm convinced the quick battery drainage problem came along with the Oreo update. It lasted hours and hours on Nougat, but now on Oreo it barely gets to 3 hours and 30 minutes.
