DDR Type 0
By default OnePlus 8T doesn't come with L5 since the hardware used LPDDR4X unless you use this to other device with L5 or DDR Type 1.

Just wondering cause the lineage fw update page mentions it and I know people were having issues on their 8T's in the lineage rom thread cause they had type 1. Reading through it seems like newer 8T's might come with type 1.

Users should check their DDR type no matter what device it is.
Like,
Checking their DDR type using the following command:
adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type

Yeah but most people don't even know that there's a type 0 and type 1 for the 8T and both you and the guy who posted the FW update on the 8 forums don't mention in the OP that you need to make sure it's type 0 or else the phone will brick. I only know cause I read through the lineageos thread and update guide. I think it's important to mention it in your guide. Might even be able to have your package check automatically and flash the correct files for each type.

I see the EU version has more 4G bands available. Does flashing an EU firmware open up more bands?
On the other hand, the EU version does not have 5G Band 79. Will flashing an EU firmware make that band 79 not available?
Or I won't gain or lose bands no matter what I flash? (This is what I believe, we still don't know how to lock or unlock bands even for the same hardwares, right?)
I just flashed the latest one and the L3 widevine became L1. Is the firmware package responsible for this or just a mere coincidence?

Firmware depends on bands from country based. unlock not possible since based on your case it is Hardware related stuffs.

I have bought mine unlocked and it is "retus". It has the MPJ 24.139-48 fw. Radio is M8952_70009.08.03.45R ATHENE_RETUSA_CUST.
If I check the update it says it's up-to-date.

yup but .9 is the latest. it has fixes for battery and the phone. i flashed it via fastboot on my XT6144 and it works great.
Well, the -49 (not 9) it's not to be found on Moto US website or OTA, it just appeared here like magic and the change log (supposedly) here. So I am not sure about it's provenience and that the fixes are not a placebo.
Anyway, I understand the "itch" to install it. Because I am so tempted myself
LE: Well, I did it. Flashed the MJP24.139-49 on my XT1644, I am restoring the apps now from backup.
Are these TWRP flashable or fastboot?
Yes, fastboot is avail after you unlock the bootloader on Motorola site (loosing the warranty).
I have booted into TWRP to root (SU systemless method), but didn't actually flash it (because I don't plan to switch to CM at this point).

I'm already on CM but there's the bug preventing me from receiving calls unless I turn off LTE. I'd prefer to not lose root and don't have access to a PC, so if I can wipe and flash this in TWRP, that would be perfect.
No, you can't, you need the standard recovery to get back to stock. Then you can root as I said.
As for CM13, I had used it (beta and after that nightlies) on one of my previous devices (Asus, based on Snapdragon 615, 64 bit, 3GB RAM)... but it was too unstable to use as a daily phone. Always something to be "fixed" and very often something else was breaking. Disappointed...
Security Patch Level
Can someone who has flashed the -49 build confirm what the security patch level is? Just wondering if it's the same update India and Europe received OTA.
hi after uploading a new uptade mk 7.1 almost reach and it does not show me the card idea i have moto g4 plus xt 1642 dual sim help?

If you're looking for a stock ROM, here's the Nougat (v7.0, Dec 2016 security update) stock ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-xt1640-43-athene-npj25-93-t3549369 I've successfully flashed it several times on my XT 1642 and appears to be the same build as that which came out on the official OTA update.
If you need Marshmallow ROMs, try https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-xt1643-updated-signed-t3460695 , which is MM 6.0.1, July 2016 security patch. Again, I've been able to flash this on my XT 1642 and received the Nougat OTA update, your experience may vary.
As always, with both ROMs, please carefully read the instructions and be aware you may lose your data, back up accordingly.
EDIT - just for info, I've got a XT 1642, retgb (UK) software update channel with an EMEA baseband. With both ROMs, those details were preserved.

They should work, as mentioned I have a xt 1642, same as you, dual SIM, (32 GB model) just on the UK software channel as opposed to the EU channel. Other members appear to have successfully flashed these ROMs on their EU devices, the only way to be certain is to try on your device.

Uh oh, that's not good, which firmware did you flash? That could be a result of the wrong firmware being flashed onto your device (especially as we don't have an official 7.1 firmware yet). You can try flashing the above firmware to try, there's a couple of other topics on this missing imei, the only other resolution I've seen so far is to service or replace your device.

The phone shows that I have a g4 plus and a g4 computer
Which software should you try 6.0 or 7?
Can I get my imei number? How does that come from?
The IEMI "disappears" when is a mismatch of the radio (modem) files and the system, like if you try to flash a custom 7.1 ROM over stock 6.0 (MM). Sometimes is hard to recover from that.
First, in TWRP, wipe Data. Then, flash in fastboot the official 7.0:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-xt1640-43-athene-npj25-93-t3549369
Follow exactly the procedure, run the "OEM Flash.bat" script. Since you don't seem to be very skilled, stop using un-tested ROM's or you will loose your phone. You can add the ElementalX kernel if you need root on the stock 7.0.

1. If the IEMI are missing, and you still have the original phone box (with printed IEMI numbers), you can try to set new IMEI:

2. If you see the IEMI listed by getvar... don't know anything besides what I have already typed in the first post.

I have a Zenfone 3 Z012DE and I do not know what firmware to install, since I have seen different models in the roms and otas uploaded to the forum, I do not know how to check the correct model to which my equipment corresponds
Is possible update to Nougat?, not link for my Firmware of my model ...
Edit: ZE552KL (Asus Z012DE)
Thanks
First off, as a new user I am unable to supply you the link directly to the page but I can direct you to where you would find your update:
If you search in Google "Zenfone 3 Z012DE" (Without quotation marks obviously) then the first link should be an Asus page. Once the page opens, you will see a bunch of gallery pictures of your device, near the top right under the search bar you should see Support, click it. Then, go to Driver & Tools, select Android as your OS and a few boxes should appear. On the second box, you will see the latest Nougat update for your device (WW-14.2020.1706.53). If you notice in your screenshot, your software code starts with WW, only download firmwares that start with WW off Asus support page since those are the only ones that will work with your devices. Unfortunately, if your phone works the same way as mine, your build indicates the date 09/09/2016 which means the latest update may not work because it will refuse to update on a build that is older than 01/20/2017 (I think that's the exact date) in which case you will have to download and upgrade each version at a time until you get to the lastest firmware.
To install the updates, copy them over to an SD card from a PC or download it through your phone and make sure you know where to find it on the SD card, boot into recovery and hit update from SD card.

Flash WW_13.20.10.152 first.
After flashing, update your device to WW_14.2015.1701.8/ WW_14.2015.1701.13
After upgrading to Nougat, flash the new WW_14.2020.1706.53 firmware.
P.S: These update files can be found on ASUS' website.

After flashing, update your device to WW_14.2015.1701.8/ WW_14.2015.1701.13
After upgrading to Nougat, flash the new WW_14.2020.1706.53 firmware.

Good afternoon, I can install firmware ww15 (Android 8) ASUS_Z012DE?
At the moment I have the firmware WW_13.20.10.152.
Do I have to install the firmware WW_14.2015.1701.8 and then the WW_14.2020.1706.53?
Or can I move from the WW_13.20.10.152 firmware directly to WW-15.0410.1712.31 or WW-15.0410.1801.40?

I have similar question. I can install firmware ww15 (Android 8) ASUS_Z012DE?
At the moment I have the firmware WW_14.2020.1709.68. I tried upgrade to WW_14.2020.1711.75, to WW_14.2020.1711.79, to WW_14.2020.1711.85 but don't work. installation aborted. What should i do?
I m on stock rom unrooted with locked bootloader with built no : NPNS25.137-93-10 (April patch).
So my question is how to switch to NPNS25.137-92-14 (JUNE patch), how to do it ?plz help
Why do you want to change to India/Brazil software, safer to just wait for the US, Europe, Retpac version.
Damn, just noticed retin, just fastboot 92.14.
Then you can update to official oreo
Stable version is releasing soon, wait for sometime.

92-14 is firmware for India and Brazil, 93-14 is for Europe,US and Asia Pacific.
It's possible to flash one over the other but you'll change your software channel and may not receive future OTA.
Better to wait for the 8.1 firmware for your region.
Losing IMEI,volte or 4g most likely only happens when you flash a 64 bit custom ROM.
To be on the safe side make a full nandroid backup incl. EFS and persist with latest TWRP 3.2.3.1

Look at the picture, software channel retin with 193-10 installed.
So should be safe to overwrite with latest indian stock release ?

The name of the software channel doesn't change if you flash another firmware version so it's safe from that point of view.
The only thing that's changing is the fact that you don't receive any OTA updates anymore.
The screenshot of the op only shows that he once flashed a firmware that was meant to be used on a US or european device.

Hello LG fans,
There is an old thread with a similar title, but since it is inactive I started this one. For certain reasons I got this G4 phone only few days ago. The model number on the box and under-battery tag as well as in settings showed F500 (just F500 without any suffix S, L, or K). It came with Android 5.1, and everything was working well. Online search showed that F500X phones can be officially updated to Nougat 7.0, but the phone OTA update said no update was available.
As per LG website, I installed LG Bridge to get the updates. It identified the phone as F500K and found two updates. First it installed 6.0 Marshmallow and then 7.0 Nougat software version F500K30c. Also the model no changed to F500K in settings. I think this probably means it is is a refurbished phone
The Installation was successful, but it installed a Korea Telecom version with some Korean stuff. I uninstalled or disabled all the Korean bloat I could without root, but there are still a few things remaining, and some Korean language here and there.
In general, I’m quite satisfied with the phone. The only thing I wish to get rid of is the KT Wifi manager app which is all in Korean, and I don’t know what it does or which settings to select. It is a system app, and I can’t uninstall or disable it, but my wifi and data networks seem to be working fine, so no complaints. I’ve seen several people here and elsewhere complaining about network issues, boot loops and bricks, but so far I haven’t experienced any. I hope it stays this way :fingers-crossed:
I was wondering about the other variants F500S and F500L, do they also have Korean bloat and is it more or less than F500K? I have read somewhere that these three firmware variants can be interchangeably installed. Is this the case, and if so, is it advisable to install another variant? I have been reading about this phone, but this is my first time to use an LG phones, and I have no experience with their software and tools, so any help, ideas or suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

You could
downgrade to MM,
backup with SALT (CRUCIAL important),
unlock by UsU ,
extract with SALT: system ,modem and boot partitions from a f500 kdz,
root and debloat or (if you like to) install a custom ROM
Check the UsU and SALT threads (you can find both in my signature)

Thank you @steadfasterX for your reply,
It's quite an honor the Guru himself was the first to reply to my post. I have seen many of your posts and replies in the forum before, and now looked at some of the stuff in your signature. Pretty impressive work. I definitely need to spend some time learning about them particularly SALT and FWUL, as I have also started learning and using Linux lately. How come FWUL is not shown on distrowatch?
For the time being, I was thinking to stick to stock Nougat 7.0 as it's a fairly recent OS, and the phone is fine even with the remaining little Korean stuff. My main dissatisfaction really is with the mysterious kt wifi manager app which is all in Korean and has some settings which I don't know what they are. If just replacing the current Nougat 7.0 with another variant S or L is actually possible, and these variants don't have a similar app, this would be great.
I have been searching for information about these S/L/K firmware variant differences but couldn't find much. I hope other S & L phone owners could tell us about their phones. The only thing I could find so far is that each is for a different carrier in Korea, and that they can be interchangeably installed as per a Reddit post. I don't know how reliable this information is!
From a purely technical perspective for G4 F500 , is it possible to flash another F500 variant using LGUP, or is this something that shouldn't be done? I have seen many people getting in trouble for flashing wrong firmware. If this is safe to do, do I need to do any preparation work like downgrading to MM first, and should this be done as an upgrade or a refurbish? For what it's worth, my ARB value is 0.
Thanks

Hi Sfx,
1. to downgrade to MM... use uppercut, right? I'm using latest 20u for F500l is OK for UsU?
2. after backing up with SALT, can I revert back anytime after unlock and with new custom ROM?
3. after rooting, do I install twrp and load custom ROM? and can I extract 30b Nougat's modem from KDZ to use with the custom ROM?
thanks so much in advance for answering...:angel:

Because they are ignorant and/or just arrogant enough to ignore my requests. I even offered to pay advertisements as this should be (according to their website) a way to get listed instant. but nothing. Even not on the waiting list..

ok so one thing first. the most important one: Ensure you keep your ARB at 0. This is crucial important. So never ever flash anything (including QFIL restore files!!!) where you are not 10000% sure it wouldn't increase your ARB.
If you are about to flash a KDZ then check that file with SALT first (simply press extract and it will display the ARB). If you flash anything else.. well ensure that the files offered have that information listed and hope and pray its not wrong (e.g. there are QFIL files around which are labeled for a ARB 0 model but contain ARB2 files..). Never heard about a wrong labeled KDZ file but who knows.
The second important thing is (maybe its even the first): before doing anything, do a full backup with SALT (basic is fine) and (!!) move that to a secure place! (I saw so many ppl who lost their backup through several ways).
So when going on through the UsU process you will have 2 SALT backups: the one before downgrading to MM and another one after you downgraded to MM (tbh the more important one). If you can keep them both.
so about flashing other variants: yes it IS technically possible to even flash e.g. h815 ROMs to a F500 and so converting it that way! but never try that with h811 KDZs or others..
anyways yea you could flash other F500 variants without fear (just carrier bloat is different) as long as you follow the above advises.

1. I dunno the latest MM F500 version but "20u" sounds good. Can't help in the downgrade process but there are plenty of guides here in the G4 forums.
2. dunno that you mean here.. but if you wanna know if you can stay on STOCK after UsU'ing yea sure. flashing UsU does not require to go for a custom ROM. It just gives you the freedom to do so.
3. if you follow the UsU guide you will have TWRP already and that's the place where you install a custom ROM if you like. Sure extract the 30b modem and flash it in fastboot should work fine (after UsU).

Thanks sfx, I'm now on MM and ready to get SALTed I want to flash AEX v6.7 But there are two offerings H811 and H815, and my F500L in SALT say GPT compatibility is H811 /ARB0, so do I flash H811 version of AEX?? If so, is there a H811_UsU_baseband_flash-in-twrp I need to flash as well? thz

if you would flash h811 on yours you will increase your ARB so do NOT flash that.
Use a h815 based ROM even when SALT compat shows different. your partition layout is somehow weird..
for non-UsU ROMs flash the f500(!!) baseband package once
