Hello,
I recently flashed my Sony Xperia Z5 Compact (E5803) with the UK firmware (E5823) to unlock the fingerprint scanner. While looking at the available E5823 firmware list via Xperifirm, I noticed there are a lot of T-Mobile branded options available (Austria, Hungry, Macedonia, etc). If I install one of the T-Mobile branded firmwares on my device, would that give me access to T-Mobile features such as WiFi and VoLTE (HDVoice) Calling?

Hi all !

build version 32.1.A.1.185
And now i want to upgrade to Ntt docomo rom .
how does i do it ? is any idea for this
thanks so much !!
Short answer: You can't.
You bought the E5803, an international model, but Docomo version's model name is SO-02H. That means they have fundamental hardware differences. Unless someone makes a custom firmware that ports Docomo ROM features to the international model(which is unlikely), you're out of luck.
Thanks you

Hello! Good Day!
Is it Possible that when you Change your Firmware from the original firmware to my region firmware, it will unlocked and be compatible in any sim courier that is available from my country. Looking forward for any comments! Thanks in Advance!
I have a LG V20 H990ds International variant, Taiwan firmware, rooted.
As the V20 was never released in the UK or Europe I'm trying to change the localisation / region to the UK / Europe.
I would appreciate any UK G5 owner - preferably on O2 or Tesco Mobile - uploading a copy of their /cust/ folder so I can make some comparisons and see if I can get anywhere with this.
TIA
I tried to search for the topic but couldn't get a definite answer - is it possible to flash the G8341 firmware onto a G8342 device? I expect the SIM2 function would disappear but I do not use it. Will the SD slot still be readable, and are there any other lost functions?
I am on trip to Hong Kong and here the only variant they sell is the dual-sim G8342 and I will be flashing the single-sim UK EE firmware. I am weighing up options to see if it is worth buying.
I have flashed older devices many times FYI. Cheers!
Or, is it possible to extract the OEM.sin from EE G8341 firmware, and flash onto the customised HK G8342 firmware? Would I get OTA from EE in the future?
I am planning to get the HK set because the xperia in my country don't have the 512GB variant. I read that for Xperia 1 IV, when original firmware is overriden, they lose OTA updates or don't have VoLTE if they used the original HK firmware.
is it possible to know beforehand whether the VoLTE function will remain intact? Can I just use my SIM card from my country and plug it in to the HK set when I am there and see if I get volte functionality while I am overseas?
i can only tell you that my Chinese mainland version could flash HK version with a working VOLTE.
