What is the differences of v20e, v20l, etc rom? and how to know on what board i am? - T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry for asking a dumb question but I really don't know the differences of LG KDZ roms like V20e, V20L, etc., and I didn't found any of information of it.
I didn't know how to check our board too. I'm on H901 with 5.1.1 ROM with software version H90110c. On LG Bridge it's detected as lg f600k. what rom should I use for my devices? or stick with current and flash TWRP? Is it safe for me?
Thank you all.

Take out the battery and see what model it's says and if it says h901 the board might be from the f600k variant.

Lg k7

This is sort of a dumb question, but I've been looking into this for a while now, and i was wondering if it would be safe to install exposed on an LG k7? I would also like to know if it has any special requirements, since it is running lollipop 5.1.1, and the risks of doing it, please

Maybe have a look at the LG K7 forum here on XDA.

How to flash a stock LG G5 rom

Hi there !
As a LG newbie, I'm a little afraid about rom flash...
I already flashed rom on Samsung devices, Oneplus devices, HTC devices, and that always was in recovery, or with easy to use softwares (Odin is pretty easy, actually).
And there are tons of tuto about those devices.
But right now, I've got my G5 (h850) with unlocked bootloader, twrp and root, but a V10a. And I want to get up to date rom, with systemless root.
Looking for tuto, I'm finding things talking about LGUP and LG Flash, KDZ and TOT, and I'm lost
So can someone link me a explicit tuto to flash my G5 back to a stock and up to date rom, without root ?
The goal is, of course, to get what I want, but also understanding what I'm doing.
Thanks in advance.

Hum.
My bad, I forgot to said I'm a linux user.
Thoses threads are for windows users, right ?
Do I need to get a windows computer to do it, or is there a way to achieve it with linux ?

You can use a virtual machine, but the tools work only with Windows and afaik there are no tools for Linux

H831 - Revert from nougat to marshmallow?

I have an LG G5 H831 from WIND/Freedom mobile which I recently upgraded to Nougat.
For some reason I don't like the new update and I'd like to revert back to the stock firmware. Is this possible?
I've looked around this forum and I couldn't find anything helpful.
Please help.

I agree. Android v7 is the Windows ME of mobile operating systems. Too many great features removed, excused by positive sounding mumblings and overbearing rhetoric.
If you can find the LG-H831 DLL for LGUP then you can flash a H83110d_00_0711.kdz ROM image (you can find or I can put up for you). I cannot find a H831 DLL for LGUP anywhere though so if anyone has one please let us know.
I'm a complete noob when it comes to flashing LG phones.
Is there a tutorial I can follow?
Where can I download the files needed?
I'm very happy with this phone btw. It's very snappy, works well and the camera is simply awesome!
It seems to me that Nougat is using more RAM than Marshmallow and that concerns me a bit.
I forgot to mention something.
Few days ago I was able to find the KDZ files here, but they were for Rogers/Fido. I was very cautious and I did not flash them.

Need to downgrade from N to MM

Hey yall! I hope this is in the right place, if not my apologies. I got myself a G5 and I love except i made a terrible mistake...I upgraded the system from Marshmellow 6.0.1 to Nougat 7.0 and my phone has had nothing but problems and glitches. I want and really need to downgrade this phone to 6.0.1 but I have no idea how and id rather not brick my phone. I have been over several forums already on this site and none of them have the same procedure. One says i need to download this another says i dont need that etc etc.I would like to downgrade to 6.0.1 easily and with minimal risk if possible. If someone could give me a clear easy to understand step by step guide that would be much appreciated. I have the Canadian H831 running android 7.0. Software Version is h83120a. If you need anymore info please let me know.
Thank you in advance

I use android 7 on my H850 and it's smooth, as I can see here, you're using the initial​ version of android 7 (20a). Have you try to check if there's any newer Nougat version of your model (H831) through OTA or LG brigde or kdz?

You need to download the Android 6 kdz. You can check here for one specific to your model https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/list-lg-g5-stock-kdz-firmware-t3365941. Once you downloaded the kdz use LGUP or uppercut to flash it to your phone. If you're unable to successfully flash it (like it errors out every time), it may be that you can't downgrade to MM from N. I'd try to use LGUP first, but if you can't get it to work try uppercut. Read those threads for instructions on how to use the tools. Feel free to ask more questions if you have any and I'll try to answer. Hopefully this helps.

Here's another source for H831 KDZ files: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h831-firmwares/#more-1685 Links to a number of MM ROMs can be found there. I have no experience with the H831, but I have successfully downgraded from N to MM on my H850 with LGUP. You should be aware, though, that there have been a number of reports of downgrading problems with the G5.
Make sure you read instructions carefully! Downgrades are easy to hard brick aka all bad.

can not boot into recovery .. i tried many time .. but one time it boots and says (erasing) and then reboots and continue normally !!

Need Help with 4 core Fix on LG V10 VS990 Verizon

Hi, Ive been looking into the core fix and the steps are very complicated. The OP lists variants like H601, h960a, etc and I was wondering where I can find that info in my settings. I have a Verizon LG V10 VS990. I cannot find anything that remotely looks like that. OP also states to flash the correct kernel for software version, 20e, 30b etc, and I also cannot find that. There is no fix listed for the VS990 so can I flash a kernel from H601? If anyone could please give me assistance I would really appreciate it. Just trying to get the ol V10 workin again.
OP's thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/v10-bootloop-fix-lengthens-life-t3694064
