Hi everyone,
I'm having issues with my LG G3 D855! It was originally locked to Optus in Australia, but I have recently wanted to root it. To do this I found I had to downgrade to Android 4.4, which I did successfully using the LG Flash Tool. It worked well, but it messed up at the same time. I actually flashed the European version of 4.4 over instead of an Optus version. As someone with little experience in the field, the European/International version seemed the right one since there was no Australian versions on the site. LG wouldn't replace the firmware unless I coughed up $350, seeing as I voided the warranty. After doing further digging online I found a Telstra version of the LG G3 firmware but the phone repair shop said that flashing a Telstra version over would lock it to telstra and that I would require a Telstra sim to use the phone! At the moment my phone is functioning okay, I'm able to text, call and mobile data and wifi both work. The issue is the missing Australian apps and the many European ones that aren't mine. Also out of curiosity, has the European G3 received 5.0 yet? It didn't show up in the software updater for me. Looking for any advice I can get with this... If you have any further questions about the functionality I will reply as soon as I can.
Thanks!
Hello.
Is there a way to update my G5 H820 to Nougat from outside USA ?
I got AT&T working sim, I tried with it - not working...
Thanks !
there's a few thread who discuss this, it seem that some people need to insert a sim of the same carrier the phone is branded on, in my case my phone is Tellus and I have used a different sim but the update I got was the telus OS update for an H831
Not sure there's an update for H820 and pretty sure H820 are not AT&T
This site is pretty good at listing available update https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h820pr-firmwares/
I'll say it again, you have to have a working att sim and be in the US to get the update. Att can suck a fat one
Hello,
I live in Switzerland and a few months ago I had the very bad idea to buy a second hand LG G5 sim-unlocked but tied to AT&T.
AT&T being AT&T, they don't release firmware updates (nougat, oreo or security patches) outside US ...
In order to bypass this "situation", I thought of 2 "new" solutions, BUT i NEED some advise and info by American citizens :
1) Buy a AT&T sim card that works abroad ... for updating a firmware which is 2gb ?
I really need someone to point me to the right "solution" in this case...
2) Buy a H850 "motherboard" to bypass the "h820" ?
Is this a solution ?
In other words, if I replace the h820 motherboard by a h850 one, will I be to upgrade my phone to Oreo and the latest security patches ?
Be kind, if you know the answer, just give me the info you have !

Just flash the latest with lgup if you have a PC on your hands. 100 percent free and also the fastest.
