[Q] H910 to F800 using Mod-LGUP - LG V20 Questions & Answers

As the title says, has anyone tried to install F800 firmware on an H910 using modded LGUP?
I'm no expert or anything, but as far as i know, an H910 can accept many kinds of firmware, I'm just not sure about F800, i don't want to risk my phone being permanently bricked for trying without making sure

Any chance to flash unlocked LG G6 H872 with H870 firmware?

Hi everyone. I've got a fully unlocked T-Mobile LG G6 H872 and struggling to find a way to remove T-Mobile boot / splash screen and bloatware. Is there any possibility to do it without any risk? I'm thinking about flashing 10T firmware for H870 but afraid of bricking the phone. I see no hardware differences between these two devices. Thanks in advance.
If you flash the H870 firmware you will brick your phone. Try using adb comands to remove bloadware. Search one post in xda that explain the procedure and it is 100% working.
LG Package Disabler will let you disable any app, including TMO and other crap that does not allow you to Disable in the App section.

1) How did you get your G6 (H872) fully unlocked (PLEASE SHARE)?
2) Can you download your stock ROM and post it here so the devs can work on the ROOT and/or the vanilla ROM version? Thank you!!

LG V20 H918 TMO using US996 ROM

Hi everyone,
Do you know if it's possible to install the US996 variant ROMS into the H918? (perhaps tweak the US996 variant ROM to have H918 drivers) so that we don't brick it.
(BTW, I tried it with desolation rom US996, but it only resulted in a screen bootloop) (ON/OFF bootloop)
That's why I'm asking.
reverted back to stock using the LGUP method.
Thanks!
I'd like to know this too.
Thanks!
I'm guessing no one knows the answer?
What I do know is that you must never flash a complete firmware or bootloader from any other variant.
Only H918 firmware for H918.
But if you can use system partition from another, IDK. Presumably there would be some problems with this, considering the developers make separate versions and your own failure.

Help to convert LS997 in to VS995 or US996

Hi guys, My question is simple. How can I convert an LS997 (in ZVA version) to any other variant?
The real pourpose is get it unlocked, but I heard that other phones had success.
Thanks

First this should be posted in the questions and answers section. Secondly there's numerous threads related to root. You should use the search function and do some reading
Sent from my LG-H910 using XDA Labs
ZVA is ARB 2, there is no other V20 that is ARB 2 -- you can't flash the firmware from any other model right now.

Yes basically Sprint and LG don't want us messing with their V20. After LS997 V20 ZV8 the ARB is raised to 2, ZV7 is the latest that can be changed to a VS995 and rooted. It can't be rooted now, but hopefully laf exploits, kdz exploits, and LGUP exploits will allow us to flash anything (promising).

Will be nice to root this phone in hight versions, for people like me who need to get unlocked.
Dunno if this helps, but I just bought an LS997 that had been flashed with US996 software... and it works fine... (except idk about root and bootloader unlocking)

H910 --> H915 ?? Can the Oreo update be installed? Are they the same hardware?

I am tired or fighting with AT&T over getting the Oreo update, and the H910 being the only V20 that the carrier doesn't allow OEM support for... What is the difference on the hardware between the H910 and the H915? I am having difficulty finding specs online for the H915, for instance it is not listed on the GSM arena website: But from what I can find out, they have the same radio and encryption keys, and therefore are able to be mutually flashed in either direction... I have seen rooting tools that recommend flashing the H910 with an H915 rom to install custom recovery, then use the custom recovery to install stock H910 with root... But has anyone just left their H910 with an H915 rom? I want to finally have KDZ support for this phone if possible...
Your help and answers are greatly appreciated...

Yes you can using the patched LGUP

Is it possible to change Ls997zvb firmware

Hello all,
I'm really new to the phone modification scene. I tinker around with computers mostly. I have an unlocked sprint version of the LG v20, the only problem is I am not receiving data on my new carrier (even with the correct apn added). I'm pretty sure this is a firmware issue. I was wondering if there was a way to flash the us996 or verizon version of the phone to get data to work. I know the sprint version is super locked down. I just didn't know if using a modded version of LGUP and the us996 kdz would brick the phone or not, or if there was a way to flash different firmware on the version I am on.
Thanks and cheers,,

Your firmware has anti-rollback enabled (ARB1), and the US996 and VS995 do not (ARB0), so flashing any KDZ (Sprint does not provide KDZ files at all) will surely brick your phone permanently. You're pretty much stuck with the Sprint firmware you currently have, and the only change possible is taking an official over-the-air update to Oreo, but that could re-lock the phone to Sprint only again.
If you're getting into phone modification, then you'll be much better off with any other LG V20 variant as they are all rootable, unlike the Sprint model with ARB1.

That really sucks, yeah I don't really want to try and hassle with sprint customer support, I got the phone second-hand from my step-brother. So, i'm not sure if they would even unlock it again for me. Thanks for the information. I wasn't sure if there was a way to flash certain parts of the software to possible fix the modem issues or not.
