Hi.
Is there any way I can change the firmware/software of my h910 V20 to H915, US996, F800 or other non-carrier-branded stock firmware?
Pls recommend a good guide if you know one.
If yes, can I still update the phone to newer versions of the firmware I switch to (eg future Oreo releases for the firmware/device version I converted into), or would I have to flash something in between?
Please advise, I'm relatively new to this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi M3 users,
I would like to kindly ask you if it is possible to flash european(C100) or chinese(C233) version of the ROM to US version of M3(C128).
I successfully unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP(by greatslon) and rooted my BTV-W09. I managed to enable 5G via the build.prop modification too. But now I was thinking to flash over my US ROM(C128B003) with european one(C100B006) - is that possible and how difficult is it? I downloaded latest european build C100B006(1.8GB file) from Huawei's italian webpage and would like to flash it, unless there it may damage my M3. Is there any fool-proof way to do it safely?
Looking forward for your replies, many thanks and with best regards,
Tomas
Hi,
I have a BTV-DL09 (LTE version) EU C100 version.
I have successfully flashed C233, C199 and other versions. After this I reflashed the C100B009 and got my M3 like new.
Usually (with Huawei at least) the localized versions are interchangeable.
Best if you have also your original ROM, in any case

Many thanks for the info Nicolap,
so what is the procedure of flashing euro/chinese rom over my US version. Can it be done with TWRP? What is the safest way to do it?
Many thanks in advance

Want to flash C100 firmware
Hey all, Just got my M3 from China.
Model No: BTV-W09
Build Number: BTV-W09C233B030
Was wondering how should I proceed if I wish to flash to a UK version of the software? Any guides out there?
Many thanks for your help!
Not quite the same tablet but i had issues with updates on my EU flashed C100 (LTE version) rom as my hw vendor an oemregion partition was still asia.
To get things working properly i had to install the EU oeminfo partition THEN flash the correct firmware. Before that auto updates picked up nothing and on upgrading to Nougat things like bluetooth broke.
That was for the LTE version though.

I have an LG V20 H990 & I understand in order to unlock the bootloader & root the phone the security patch needs to be pre 2017. However, I'm unable to find the correct firmware & region for my V20 that predates 2017. Any help is appreciated.

Yes not much advice or help for the H990 V20. I wouldn't meddle with it if I'm honest, especially if it's your daily driver. Just install a firmware from a different region but same model number.

I know it might be a trivial question, but recently I saw a new update for the G6 OREO (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/lg-g6-oreo-g600-download-t3784263) , and was wondering if I can flash this update on my H870, or am I going to take a risk of brickning my G6?
This is for G600 variant so obviously you can't flash it.
Sorry for the noob question, it's probably been asked on here, but have not been able to find a solid answer. I have a US Cellular LG G6, which by now I know bootloader can't be unlocked. But, is there any way to update to Android Oreo? Currently on Android Nougat 7.0. thanks in advance.
I need the stock Oreo firmware for Moto G5 Plus Indian variant (XT1686) to relock the bootloader.
I know that the Nougat stock firmwares were different for different variants of potter.
But I read from a post that this is not the case for stock Oreo firmware and it's same for all variants. Is it a fact?
If yes then I have no problem as there are links available for fastboot version of stock Oreo firmware.
But if no then please tell me where to download the specific one for XT1686.
Reply at your earliest convenience.
Model is not needed, original software channel (Country specific) is required.
So if you can give that info, someone can point you in the right direction.

I found it myself.

This firmware can be used for any channel as starting from Oreo Moto doesn't create different firmwares for different channels.
this guy says he can downgrade ls997 to zvc to unlock and root.

Can you guys check and tell me if this is real? is there a way to root ls997 oreo now that I do not know?
kindly let me know.
thanks in advance.
Looks like that's just for SIM unlocking the phone. The LS997 is known to carrier re-lock itself when upgrading to Oreo. Software version ZVC is still ARB1, so it's still unrootable as far as I'm aware.
