Help needed to flash LG G6 [H87110o] - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
Just a month ago I purchased what seems to be an AT&T branded LG G6 from ebay. The seller assured that despite the latter the device would've been usable in the UK (where I reside) and that is true as I can use my sim and make calls and send SMSs. I lately faced the charging issue due to moisture and fixed it by purchasing a new charging cable, but I the view of that I also want to flash my current firmware to a Uk unbranded version.
I visited the following [wesite](https://lg-kdz-firmware.com/download-LGH870-UNITED+KINGDOM-V10l/18642.html) to download a GB kdz file for my device but I was then taken to this other [website](https://lg-firmwares.com/) where I located an [EU Oreo kdz](https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads/downloader.php?fileid=14846&hash=76f0eba64a9f23075d477f64fee0d181) file. I then thought I might as well get this one and flash once for good.
I then downloaded LG UP software and tried to flash my device. Initially, I was facing the 'can't load model' error which I then fixed with the [uppercut software](http://www.**********.com/make-lgup-work-all-devices-uppercut-tool/). Once ready to flash and I get an error message reading "error: kdz file is invalid H871 -> h870".
Can anyone help me with this? First of all, I'd like to say, despite all the props to the developers that created these awesome tools, I couldn't find a single official and complete guide on the LG UP tool. Can anyone please provide me with an accurate guide for LG UP?
If the kdz file that I'm using is the issue, can you please provide me with the right firmware files?

[Need] {Request} - LG Risio aka LG Leon for Cricket Wireless Factory Firmware(QH-USB)

I am requesting the stock firmware for the LG Risio, if anyone can dump it or find it from somewhere and post it here so I can reflash my phone (got it for christmas) that would be awesome, I tried rooting unfortunately and what had happened was I had selected lte vs cdma flash although the phone is lte and the guide says CDMA it still failed, and now it wont boot, and I could have just used kingsroot and purified the system so im kind of annoyed.
Here is a chinese forum that has it, but you need cool points to get it......

Nawww. The link being locked is irrelevant. If you go up one hierarchical level in the forum (LG LEON), you'll see the various countries and variants. All of them have the link to the .KDZ. All of them except one. You know which one is missing the KDZ link. Wasted a few hours on this ****. **** sucks.
Anyone find a way to restore our cricket lg risio's???
I have 5.1.1 but my phone was in 6.0 and at downgrade, came to imei null. If you could flash one of yours, update to 6.0 and obtain your flash would be awesome!

That's a good question I think if you are rooted you can use Titanium Backup

To flash firmware Gear Fit 2

Hi dear friends,
I 'm looking for the firmware of Gear Fit 2 because I'd like to flash that with Net Odin, can you help me please?
Thanks to all
Sorry bud, pretty sure Samsung haven't released it yet. I've hunted high and low with no success.
Searching for firmware for Samsung Gear Fit 2 (sm-r360)
Maybe some updates on the topic? Have anyone succeeded in searching for firmware for sm-r360? I am searching for service firmware files too. Can find only on strange websites with pre-paid download but not sure those files are real firmware.

I was able to flash the Gear Fit 2 with R360XXU1APE4 using Odin in hopes of getting rid of the Activation lock. No success. Is there any way to get rid of the Activation lock or should I just cut my losses and toss it in the trash?
Hi, where did you find the odin files for the Gear Fit 2 that you used? Did you have to pay?

There are two sets of links above:
1 is with the questionable sites trying to charge you money, and the 2nd is for flashing your Fit 2 into retail demo mode which will make it useless as an actual device.
Therefore the above links are useless. I was asking him since he implied he had successfully flashed so I wanted to know where he got his files from.
Hopefully somebody is able to find something, seems odd that there is 0 in the public domain for the Fit 2 still.
How do you know that the rom posted above is retail mode?
I didn't know what retail mode was when I bought one from fleabay and the f------g a--hole wouldn't take it back (even though his listing said returns accepted. Ebay and paypal both sided with him).
Now I'm stuck with a virtually brand new Fit2.....in retail mode.
I had to disable adblock to download the files, but it didn't charge me for them. You just have to close the popups and stick with the captcha verifications.
Hi Guys! This is the information I have found so far regarding gear fit 2 flashing. YouTube video showing how to flash gear fit 2 by Wifi using Odin Net , the firmware "retail" and OdinNet. Hope it helps.

Only as hint...
Best Regards
not been tested by myself, so use at your own risk,,,,, https://taflish.com/EN/Samsung/Download_Combination.php?Cid=291
Excuse my ignorance, but do the combination roms get flash in Odin in a similar way to the three separate ones? If so, what slot do you use?
My GF2 is stuck in boot loop, I can get into boot menu, but only the two download options seem to work, recovery and factory command just go back into boot loop, so a flash seems to be the only thing for it.
Whilst using Odin for phones I've never used it for tizen things - I'm assuming it is much the same.

Root for Cubot HAFURY UMAX?

I recently bought a HAFURY UMAX made by Cubot and i've been trying to find a way to root it and install a custom recovery. I've tried most of the methods that I could find on google like Kingroot, etc.
I haven't been able to find anything compatible because its a pretty obscure phone.
Any help would be awesome!
No information yet
I have been searching for this since my phone arrived and there's no clue about rotting it yet. Maybe installing another ROM but I'm not into cooking ROMs yet.
root software -- Cubot max <-> Hafury Umax
You can find a rooting software for Umax here. It woks on Max and Umax (URL is without :// for I am not allowed to submit URLs)- http guideroot.net/cubot-max-download-android-8-0-o-firmware-nougat-7

I also need root for this device. Is there any kind people who can port twrp? Any help would be most appreciated thanks

TWRP: https://www.needrom.com/category/cubot/max/
After flashing TWRP you could then install Magisk which will give you root.
Have you managed to unlock your bootloader (although it is not necessary to install TWRP using SP Flash Tool) ?
Thank you for your help however the link you posted is for a cubot Max and I need twrp for cubot hafury umax. I don't think the twrp would work for the umax? As I think they have different chips mine is MT6580 and the max is MT6753A
Tried every app for rooting with no success.
I have downloaded every app and program that claimed to root nougat devices (RootKHP too, but it's just a bad coded virus) and I haven't been lucky yet. I have also done the "manual method"(adb push and then moving those files to /system) but this phone it's not exploitable in that way either. Maybe, compilling TWRP and installing it is the key, but HAFURY doesn't give any help to do so (as usual). I sent them emails, asking for help because of the bugs and also asking for the ROM itself. No luck. They claim to be preparing an update or something that will be released in the official cubot forum... but in that forum there isn't any entry about this phone.
Looks like HAFURY will not give a damn and, probably, will shut down in a time. They KNOW that this phone works faulty ( touch-screen problems, Wi-Fi unstable), but they are not doing anything.
I will not buy another phone from them nor from a chinese manufacturer. I have learnt.
I will try to buy a One Plus One as soon as I have money.
I too sent an email asking about an update and this is the reply I received. Dear Sir/Madam,
Sorry there is no update in the near future, the schedule of it has not been connected, you can keep an eye on our forum, thanks!
So it looks like cubot don't care about there customers
There is an update ROM on cubot forum.
Now we have access to ROM an recovery maybe we cud compile twrp?
What I found so far about the Update
As Stumbag said a couple of days ago, Cubot released an update for the HAFURY UMAX. I downloaded it as soon as I found it and, first of all, don't expect nothing. The only change I noticed is the build name, everything else is like the older version. The Wifi is still unstable, the touchscreen still requires to lock and unlock for working fine when it doesn't detect the touches and still, no root for this phone. I searched for a way to root a ROM before installing it but no luck yet. Also, I extracted the system.img and I haven't found weird packages, as I said, there's nothing different from the older build. What I noticed is a weird file called "recovery_rootcheck.bin" allocated in /data/ that contains other 3 files but I cannot read them properly. Screenshots included:
The location of the file: //i.imgur.com/FW9VAKi.png
The code of the file: //i.imgur.com/mNSpCgW.png
I dumped the older ROM before installing the new, but I am not sure I have done it well but, anyway, I have the dump file.
I will keep searching a way to compile TWRP but I have zero experience on compilling so I don't think I will archieve it.
So, CUBOT has released the ROM as an Update.
Guys. I did it. I compied a TWRP Recovery for the HAFURY UMAX. It works but the stock recovery is being reinstalled after a reboot. Tomorrow I will fix it and I will write a tutorial for installing TWRP and a rooted ROM I did. It's slightly different from the stock ROM (I removed bloatware, deodexed every package, zipaligned, changed the bootanimation and a few more things for making the phone truly free). The ROM is being uploaded to my GDrive right now.
Expect a new Thread tomorrow about installing TWRP and this Custom ROM.
Well done nekuake ?
Could you point me in the right direction for the twrp? Thanks
It doesn't work yet.
It doesn't work. The TWRP I compiled doesn't recognize the phone's partitions. I'm waiting for the reply of HAFURY/CUBOT, because if they send me the device tree, it would be quite easy because I know what to do next.

They didn't give a damn. Now, I am working in other things (university and that stuff). As soon as I have time again, I will try to use another device tree and adapt it to this phone.
Also, you shouldn't have bought this phone. You will see a lot of bugs that WON'T be fixed. HAFURY/CUBOT have a ridiculous support.

They released the phone ROM while ago: forum[dot]cubot[dot]net/viewtopic.php?t=1495
You can extract the system.img and take a look inside the System partition.

I've tried to use ported 6580 TWRP 3.1.1 and TWRP from Cubot Rainbow 2, it doesn't cause any bootloop but doesn't seems to work either
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/twrp-unofficial-custom-recovery-mt6580-t3505687
https://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-3-1-0-jemmini/
Both use the same mediatech however, I have no ****ing idea how to boot in TWRP, I've tried the **cubot max (DO NOT TRY)** that used something else then MT6580 and it gave me a bootloop, soo whoever said Max equal with UMax **** him
I'm trying other TWRPs
Well, i haven't tried to compile TWRP again because Cubot/Hafury doesn't want to give me any of the files I requested (as I though). I will mirror the repo of OMNI and, well, pray a little the next time I try to compile it.
For the moment, I have tried to use any of the TWRPs there are in the Internet of similar phones. They haven't work. The phones I tried were Infinix Hot 5 and Infinix Hot 5 Lite. Please, people, try things like I'm doing and we will have TWRP and Root soon.
Hi IV tried doogee X5 and some others but haven't worked I will keep trying come on peeps we can do this

Advice needed - UK Mate 20 Pro flash to non-Vodafone version of Android

Hi everyone,
I've been looking around Google for some way to change the Android version on my Mate 20 Pro from the Vodafone (UK) version that it originally shipped with, to a completely stock Huawei UK version. Mainly to stop the constant want of bloatware app updates that Vodafon want to push to me despite the phone being unlocked and not on Voadfone anymore.
I've followed some directions huaweiadvices(dot)com, and I belive I got the correct firmware download from FirmwareFinder (I can't post links, but will PM them to anyone who can help). None of the methods shown in the above article worked for me, in anyway. I'm either getting a "file not found message" or it just not doing anything at all.
The version I'm on is EMUI 10.0.0.196(C432E7R1P5). I've got a Drive link that I will share that's got screengrabs from the phone with details.
This is the first time I've tried to flash a phone, I'm completely lost and need some help; so if this is on the completly wrong board or has been asked before, I apologise. If anyone can point me in the direction I need to go, or let me know if its even possible, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks
