[Q] New on LG , and i want to know some things about the softwares

Hi:
My brother have bought an LG G2 , and i am learning about it's modes , software , and other things.
I knew that the official softwares came like KDZ files , and i have downloaded the LG Flash Tool.
But about the softwares i know nothing.
In SONY softwares , every software came with all languages but may some will be hided depend on the software region.
In SAMSUNG you have to download the software that represent your region so you can get your language.
Please help me answer those questions:
1- Can i flash any KDZ on the Phone like all D802 softwares?
2- Does the all softwares include all languages like SONY?
3- How do i know the software build number and the android version? like "D80220C_00" what android version does it stand on? and how to know if softwares like "D80220A_00" and "D80220D_00" is newer or older?
4- I saw a links like those: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=358635050100008
Does those links view the lastest new software of my phone that it's 100% compatible with it? i mean if i exchanged the IMEI with my real phone IMEI.

1. You can flash any KDZ for your g2 D802 model so dont flash other model kdz on your brothers phone, dont break it
2. I believe that it also has all the languages.
3. Build number is 20C and android version you can find in about phone. As far as I know LG higheres the build versions from like v10 to v20 if they update to an higher android version. So v10x is jellybean and v20x is kitkat.
I am not sure how to know the older and or newer ones, I just recommend to update your phone with lg pc suite or with that link from 4.
If you enter your imei then the link should appear with the latest software version for your phone.
5. Like I said before its your brothers phone so take it carefully, read everything good and keep it safe :good:
Btw, there are 32gb and 16gb device kdz. If you flash an 16gb kdz on an 32gb then it will only show 16. Vice versa I dont know what would happen, I think it will not be good or it will even not go.

Thanks!
You helped me so much
the only thing that still didn't understood that the version , because like what you said , 10x and 20x are the version so higher number is the newer software , but what about the x? in my brother phone it's 20C that shown on the link after entering the IMEI , so 20A and 20D are for other models or regions? or older and newer?
And what does SUFFIX number do? is it important?

I dont know exactly or 20 A is newer or D just watch the release date of it. With the x I mean like some version D or A.
I dont know really about the suffix number if it is on that url but I can tell you that you dont need to change your stock to another version since the most versions are like fixing small things, just wait for ota's.
Again the x I mean like this.
There is android 4.4.1 4.4.2 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 and gapps are for 4.4.X so also for the sub versions which mostly contains some bugfixes. But as far as I know on LG stock there arent so many bugs, on the g2 I am not sure since I dont even own that phone.

[Q] Updating firmware and software

Hello, I am very new to this and to the forum so i hope you will vear with my lack of knowhow.
I have just bought a Redmi Hongmi Note 4g LTE 2Gb single sim which is really nice except it has come with Miu 66.44.22.00 and Android 4.4.4. It only has 8Gb internal memory and kitkat doesn't allow the phone to read or write to the SD card. I believe Lollipop does allow this but probably it would be best to update the firmware first as I am not sure if it is an original version of Miu, otherwise I think it would update automatically wouldn't it? Also many of the options are in Chinese so it would be nice to have an English version.
I would really appreciate advice and guidance please. I really don't want to ruin the phone. Thank you.
Jill

Search the english miui forum (miui.en) and find the international version of miui and flash it. Maybe flash a custom recovery first, it's better than the stock one.
From the middle of nowhere to the center of everywhere...

Thanks very much.

Sure you have to flash? I saw v6 in my updater and just downloaded it, officially.

I don't think my firmware is original. It has strange 66.44.22.00 version so I don't think the updater is working.

I will appreciate if someone can provide me latest version on mega. Co. Nz or other alternatives.

Best is STOCK always. Samsung fixed somethings in this latest firmware. HERE we go :highfive:. You don't need install anything before, only flash this firmware via ODIN like always.

no custom Rom for M9+ plus ?

i actually tried to find it under m9 developers section but there is nothing so i guess the only place for M9+ is (m9+ general ) but there is nothing here i could find so if there is really no custom rom for M9+ so why i need to unlock the boot loader (which i did) or root the device ?

no one knows ?!!

I guess it is just bit too early for having a lot of options. There is one custom ROM atm that is in fact just a crutch for those who have imported phone with no support for EU languages.
Unlocking and rooting has nothing to do with it... especialy rooting...
But for example I had to get S-OFF to change the internal CID identification so that the phone things it was made for EU and download EU based OTA updates. And for S-OFF you need to unlock and root the device first anyway.
Maybe it is just because all the people are waiting for Marshmallow update and they are generaly satisfied by HTC software?

a.s.j thanks for ur replay i think im waiting too for marshmallow hope it comes soon i have the Taiwan version and thanks again

We have CleanSlate
Apart from CleanSlate which is an improvement, we don't have anything else like AOSP which would be a good framework for further development. Hopefully some devs will pick up our phone.
CM13 is supported on the M8 and M9 so it may be possible to port it to ours in the future
