Hi guys,
today i got a LG V10, and I want to update it to Android nougat.
I saw this toturial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/how-to-manually-install-android-7-0-t3624444
Can I use it on my LG V10 H960AY? I don't really know what the diffrences are.
Thanks
Other than regions, I couldn't find any differences. Here are few links for your reference :

I see that the h960ay doesnt have a nougat firmware. I want to try the h960a firmware on my phone. You think it could work?
Most likely it will work. Backup your important data first. Things to be considered :
1. Use LG Up i/o LG Bridge
2. I flash dz instead of kdz, kdz won't flash, it's there in other thread explaining conversion.
3. If you're on L than flash 960A's android L first. Same thing if you're on MM, flash 960A''s MM first. We need to anticipate possible downgrading issue.
4. Flash in proper sequence L to MM to N, Don't skip

Flashing process seems to stuck at certain percentage, don't panic, do not unplug cable or press any button. It'll finish properly.

I have MM (6.0), so first flash the 960A MM?
Can you give me links for those downloads? I don't really understand, kdz, dz...
Thanks for your help!
Edit: Maybe do u have skype or something to help me?
If u have time and power for this of course, if not, it's ok
Requirement :
1. Firmware from above link #1
2. Flashing tool from https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/uppercut-lgup-loader-g5-variants-t3511295
3. Extract dz from kdz https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600575
4. Flash related dz
This is what I did to make things worked :
1. Uninstall LG USB drive, reinstall using the latest
2. COM Port number detected by LG UP must be the same as one in device manager properties, if not switch COM Port # manually under "Advanced" (a guy also change Flow control to hardware) but I didn't do this.
3. I used dz format instead of kdz for successful flashing WindowsLGFrirmwareExtract
4. When flashing reached 99% in download mode, LG Up showed 80% and it will stuck for quite some time, don't panic it's progressing eventually and rebooting several times afterwards until you see the bootanimation and got into the upgraded Android.

Thank you so much!
2 Questions:
1. is it matter which firmware i take? because i see it divided by regions, and mine isn't there. I'm from israel.
2. First I need to flash the MM H960A? is it matter which region I take, does it need to be the same with the Nougat?
Thanks again, I really ap;preciate it
Closest would be middle eastern versiom, either way it'll be painful once you enter android after successful flashing because you have to deal with unfamiliar language. Just search tap the three dots, select, scroll down till you find a row with A where you can switch the language. Anyway, I have more reference (link) on other devices which I can't access at the moment. I'll get back to you later on today. It took me a few days with proper infos before proceeding with flashing. So be patient a bit

About the language, English is good for me.
Anyway, I planned to flash the phone only on thursday, so I have time. If I won't know what I'm doing, I'll wait. I know the risks and I don't want to destroy my phone.
Waiting for your reference.
Thanks a lot!
Well, my LG V10 is f600s (Korean, SKT operator) which surprisingly comes with T mobile software version. So after flashing, the default language is Korean. It is important to flash according to your board type. I finally find this guide, page 1 method didn't work so I use this one instead
1. download AIDA.apk. Find the serial number. For me LGF600Sb56 ........
2. download rom F600S20l_00_0503.kdz / F600S30d_00_0510.kdz https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-f600s-firmwares/
3. download WindowsLGFirmwareExtract.1.2.6.1 https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=2600575
4. In the program, click on KDZ / TOT file OPEN. Find rom F600S20l_00_0503.kdz and click Extract KDZ.
5. Extracted rom must be F600S20l00.dz
6. Download the Common.rar folder. Extract to LGUP to model folder. It works for me. https://uloz.to/!9byYOh354OyJ/lgv10common-rar
7. Connect your phone in the download mode and run LGUP. Turn LGUP off and on again. Wait until a large program window opens. It was small for me.
8. flash rom
9. Done
It can be found here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...h901-korean-board-f600s-update-t3640999/page5
Please also read page 1 regarding how to get into download mode / bootloader for flashing but as previously mentioned method on page 1 didn't work, for me at least.

My serial number is LGH960ba7b93...
So what does it mean? Which software I need to download? This: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h960-firmwares/ or https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h960a-firmwares/ ?
Can you please give me the names of the firmwares? Because I don't understand what are the diffrences are.
Reminds that mine is H960AY, that doesn't have Nougat firmaware.
Sorry for asking so much questions, I want to be sure about this 100%
Thank you so much for your time and help!
Oops, my bad, just copying as it is from original post, firmware to be flashed should be H960A20c_00_0223.kdz which is latest Android M for H960A. Just in case also prepare your current stock firmware from https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h960ay-firmwares/ , one suitable to your operator, just in case.

Yup make sure nothing is wrong with H960A Android M first, because once you're on Android N it's highly probable you can't go back to Android M due to anti rollback

If after rooting and installing CM7, would it be possible to revert back to factory settings and firmware?
Yes, easiest way would have been making a Nand back up BEFORE you installed the custom rom, and stored it somewhere safe, then you can flash back to old rom and just reset your factory settings.
Im guessing you didnt do that though
You will have to download your LG firmware for your country and reflash it.

yup it is
First of all, you need the firmware file updating software, which you can download from here :
mediafire.com/?jkk2dwewjmfz346
Now, you need the LG firmware repository to download the version of the LG ROM that you need. This is a bit tricky and requires some attention. I know this may confuse some of you but be sure I'll help anybody who comments on this blog, but then its better to get it done at once rather than wasting your time and hence I request you to read carefully.
Now first I'm explaining how to read the country codes from the firmware country codes page.
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/ezlooks_model_list.jsp?model=LGP500
This is the list of country codes for the firmware: LG P500 firmware country codes
Here, all country codes are given. Now suppose, I want to download the firmware for India, I'll hit CTRL + F (shortcut for search on browsers) and write INDIA. It'll display the location of the word INDIA on the page. Now the code will read like :
CDMA LGP500 AINDBK IND/INDIA
Here, AINDBK is the code we need. Lookup the code for your country similarly as mentioned above and copy it somewhere.
Now, the prototype of the download link is this :
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/XXXXX/V10a_00/V10A_00.kdz
First, copy this link, paste it in the notepad. Now get your country code, and replace the XXXXX from the above link with your country code. For example, my link would look like this after replacement :
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/AINDBK/V10a_00/V10A_00.kdz
Now paste this link in the address bar and hit enter. It'll initiate the download for your firmware.
If you want a different firmware, like the V10B update or the V10C update, just replace the a and A after V10 in the above link (at both places) with the letter of the version you want. Please keep in mind that the case of the letter should be same accordingly. My download link for the V10B update would look like :
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/AINDBK/V10b_00/V10B_00.kdz
Now when you're all equipped with the requirements, we shall now proceed to the flashing part.
Go to the folder where you have downloaded the Firmware Updater : KDZ_firmware_updater and extract it.
Install msxml.msi from the extracted directory
Connect your phone (don't Turn On USB storage) and run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe.
In the window, select Type : 3GQCT
Also select PhoneMode : DIAG
In the place where you have to give path for KDZ file, select the ROM you have downloaded using the link you made for your country specific firmware.
Press Launch software update and wait for about 10 minutes. The screen will then say "Emergency mode". Just wait and let it reboot.
You're back to the LG Stock Firmware!
I hope this article helps you and if you've not been using a Custom ROM for the reason mentioned above, now is the time to do so!
Happy Flashing!

Actually I have not rooted nor flashed anything yet, which was the motivation for this thread. I like knowing for sure I can revert back to factory for unforeseeable circumstances.
Also, thank you for the concise post cyber_avijit. I had a feeling that was the way to do it but just wanted to confirm.
I have been doing some searches and it appears people are bricking their phones by using the KDZ flasher (it does not appear that they have done anything wrong either). This worries me as I hate taking chances and having no control over matters. Does anybody know why their devices are bricking and how I can prevent that from happening to myself?
I have warranty but its a pain to send the unit away for a month.
Cheers.
this site isn't working anymore.. did anyone managed to save the country codes?

Why would you use KDZ? Since you're on stock rom and you have a normally functioning phone, use Gingerbreak to root your phone! It's easier and I think it's almost impossible to brick your phone with that
After that you can flash your custom recovery, a new ROM, or whatever else you want to do
I have LG P705 (optimus L7) phone, I installed LG pc suite on my computer to update the phone from 4.0.3 to latest firmware (JellyBean). Well the process runs and says your current version is V10C and new version V20B is available, but the process ends in error saying something like error while analyzing the upgrade environment.
can anybody help me with this??

Ok here's what you need to do:
Download KDZ (http://www.android-hilfe.de/attachm...sionen-ohne-datenverlust-kdz_fw_upd_en-1-.zip)
Obtain your firmware: (http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=13)
Install drivers for LG pc suite, I will assume you will know how. (Connect your phone to computer and select PC software or something, and then it will check for drivers and install them.)
Enable usb debugging, should be in developer settings or in security.
On the folder you DL'ed open windows enabler, and go to your bottom right icons (where internet and clock is) and double click on the windows enabler thing.
Run KDZ_FWD_UPD.exe
Select 3GQCT in phone type, and DIAG as mode.
Choose the .KDZ you downloaded, click start flashing. Don't worry if it doesn't respond. This is normal. The phone will say emergency mode.
Wait.....
Wait longer....
If it comes up with an error, you F*** up the download, try again.
PROFIT!
No it won't delete your stuff, but be sure to back up vital info.

Thank you AsianFoodRules for your reply and providing me step by step guide, On the firmware version page i see firmware for each country, which i need to download, im in US, and currently my unlocked phone is on At&t carrier. I do not see US on the page. Also i want to know if these are JB firmware?
One last thing, can you confirm the newer version makes the phone faster then the ICS version i currently have running on phone.
Any V20(a,b,c,d) firmware is JB. Use europe or one you think will be the best. Choose the ones with P700 only, or you might not end up with NFC.
Search and look for stuff that say V20D is best for gaming or whatever.

Instructions :
Extract The .rar
Open The Setup File And Install LG Flashtool
Right Click On The Shortcut Created On Your Desktop And Open File Location.
Copy The .dll Files From The DLL Folder To The Previously Opened Location And Replace The .dll In Flash Tool Folder If Any.
Open The Flashtool,Select The .dll Then The .tot/.bin File And You Are Ready To Flash The Firmware,Connect The Phone In Download Mode When Asked.
Note :
I Don't Know Whether It Works For N4 Converted Devices.I Had Successfully Flashed Stock .20 .bin File With It.But I Suggest To Use This Only When LGNPST Does Not Work/Fails To Flash The FW As For Me.Please Don't Perform Unwanted Experiments With Your Device Or It Will Result In A Hard Brick.
This Guide Was Originally Created By madmack @ Optimus G Pro Section So Thanks To Him.
I was Searching For The .dll File For Our Device And Found It So Decided To Create A Thread.And Those Who Are Thinking That The Required .dll Is The Same That We Use For LGNPST,NO,This Is A Different .dll
It Did Not Ask For Unlock Code When I Flashed The Stock JB FW.But As Posted By madmack there is A Possibility That It Can Ask For Your Unlock Code.So Proceed With Caution.
Again This Is A Alternate To LGNPST And Only I Have Successfully Flashed The Stock FW.It Is Recommended That Unless It Is Tested By 4-5 Experienced Users,Its A No Go For Noobs/New Users.
And Be Advised That This Process Will Wipe Your Internal Storage.
Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing.
Edit: There are many more things to do in his (madmack) thread... Did u follow them all? Or for us we do not need all those steps? Let us know before someone bricks.. I use LGNPST but if anyone tries this.. at least they have a better understanding. thanks again for sharing.
just a heads up.. TeenyBin does not work in LG Flash. There are extra CRC checks which I haven't been able to bypass yet. This may change in the future.
also, not sure if this version of LG Flash is same as the newer one I use but I have to set the COM port to 40+ for LG flash to see my device.. altho maybe I'm missing something. I have to go into windows device manager and manually change the COM port used for the phone ( its in properties ).
LG Flash is no better or worse than LGNPST in my opinion. On the plus side.. there's no dll to register... and options are good

I've try to found the download link for the Lg Flash tool on this page, but i haven't. Can you fix it or explain? Thanks anyway.
Which .TOT and .DLL files will you be providing? I need the .DLL and .TOT file for, of course, the AT&T Optimus G E-970 US version! I flashed my wifes phone cause it boot looped and the .TOT used was SUPPOSED to be this file but it is the Korean FW. Now my wifes phone will not update via OTA because it changed her IMEI number. I need to get her phone back to stock 4.1.2 US VERSION!

Here is the file you need to get her phone back to STOCK U.S: http://downloads.codefi.re/g33k3r/LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013.zip I'm not sure on the DLL file, I use LGNPST so not sure if they are the same but attached it also just incase you can use it.. stock firmware file above is a .tot file so if you need to you can just change it to .bin if you need to.
Thank you blake but no. That is the fw file that turned her phone Korean. So may people are under the impression this is the stock US fw but it isn't. I even had another person here check their phone and his too in fact says "Lg Electronics Korea".

Where do you go check to see if its U.S or Korean?
All settings--> about phone -->phone Identity.
It's under settings-->about phone-->phone identity.
I had another person tell me that's normal because it's only the "manufacturer" info. Which im told this phone is manufactured in Korea. I don't know. All I do know is everyone is saying this is the stock fw for this phone but my wifes phone has changed. The start up screen is different and so is the shut down screen. Example, when her phone would shut down, she would get the AT&T logo and sound. After flashing this file she gets the blue circle and no sound. I do know that 4.1.2 is different depending on the region the phone is in. I don't know anything else that would explain this. Maybe this FW file WAS a different region but it was stripped out and converted somehow?

After a little checking I found out the same thing, It was normal as it was the place of manufacturer. I'm not sure what the problem might be but as far as I know that's the stock firmware for the phone.. You might try this one out http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22901594685177912 you just boot into recovery do the normal wipes and flash through recovery, its supposed to be stock except for being rooted and as far as I know those are the only two stock files floating around for the phone...
Thanks Blake. Can you confirm for me that this phone will NOT get OTA updates if it's changed in any way, including rooting? It's what I was told by someone else. If that's the case then I guess there really is nothing wrong with the phone except those weird unexplained small changes.
I've got all the correct files download and I made it so far as to try to actually flash the phone, but it fails and gives me a wrong model number message because it's detecting my phone as a E960 (it's an E970). Any ideas? I had installed the latest CM11 ROM over some encrypted data and now I'm locked out (old encryption PIN doesn't work) and I can't restore it to stock.
can someone help me with a .tot or .bin stock for lg l70 d320n? cuz i"ve looked for it everywhere but couldn"t find anything
need help bad.
i got this phone from a friend and it originally had cm11 on it. the phone in question is the lg e970. i wanted to get back to stock. so i downloaded the correct firmware and added it to my external sd card. using twrp before i proceeded to wipe the phone via twrp. when it was finished i restarted the phone into twrp and went to install the stock firmware and i could not find my exsd card. twrp does not recognize it at all. so now im stuck with a phone with no os on it. i can ge into twrp and download mode, and when i just boot the phone it goes to lg logo and stays there. i need help in trying to figure out how to get stock firmware back on phone. i am used to samsung phones and odin. so im a noob when it comes to lg. i am very tech savy when it comes to computers. plzzzzzz any help would be great!!!!!!!! and appreciated
I can not add .tot file in LG flash tool
I have unrooted my lg g3 before on another computer. But i can't add the .tot file with my new computer. I am doing everything the same.
Does anyone have any ideas?
hi v10 folks,
just bought this v10 mobile 3 days before. it came with 5.1 android version, so thought of upgrading it and found some weird observations.
1. on connecting mobile to LG Bridge, model shows as H901 but update shows as F600S30D :crying:
2. downloaded lg phone info app and saw the provider name as SK Telecom
i have attached three screenshots of my mobile phone. is this a genuine t mobile version ? what needs to be done to upgrade my phone to Nougat ??? instead of bricking my phone thought of taking your suggestion guys
thanx in advance
Do NOT use LG Bridge, or you will brick your phone. Dunno where you got your phone, but it has an F600 IMEI, so LG Bridge thinks you need F600 firmware.
There is a v20L KDZ floating around here somewhere. Grab it, and put your phone in download mode (pull the battery / put the battery back in / hold volume up / plug USB cable in -- you don't have to hit the power button). Once you are in download mode, you can flash the KDZ with LG UP. That will get you to MM 6.0.1 which is still rootable using the dirtycow method (if you care about rooting). If you don't care about rooting, I am uploading the v30b Nougat KDZ right now. It is not rootable with any currently known methods. If you do want root, root on v20L, and then I will also be posting an update.zip that will take you to v30b and keep root.

My goodness, thanks for the prompt reply buddy, you saved my @SS im seriously not worried for root or bootloader unlock. im ok with stock nougat without root. so which kdz i need to flash ? im confused
As far as I know, no one has uploaded the Nougat KDZ yet, so I am in the process of uploading it. Google drive is being REAL slow. Since you don't care about root, you can use the same method that I described above (get into download mode, and use LG UP to flash the KDZ). I will make a post just a soon as it finishes uploading.
You might want to take this time to be SURE that you don't want root, because once you flash Nougat, there will more than likely never be a way to root this phone unless another exploit in the Linux kernel can be found...

No if you update h90130b your phone will be a hardbrick.
You have to upgrade F600S30d But you might lose the network !!!
@SandyKick If you can return that phone for an exchange, you might want to. As @dodo73 said, (in not so many words) you are boned. You are going to have to take a risk either way, but the safest route since adb sees the device as an F600, is to flash the F600 firmware. If you lose network, you can then try flashing the H901 modem. Let us know how it goes, but you are probably going to have to do SOME kind of fixup -- it will not be a clean flash / upgrade / happy phone
EDIT: If you flash the F600 firmware and brick your phone, that is also easy to fix -- and you will know that you DO need the H901 firmware.

I dont think going straight from 5.1.1 to nougat is a good idea. And after 1 hr of download if lg up is going to say incorrect kdz then why time waste
@SandyKick first we have to upgrade it to 6.0 to see everything goes welll then decide to upgrade it to 7.0
I have been searching for v20L kdz link but which model it is the huge problem
as we can not flash H901 kdz.
f600L?
F600s?
F600K?
There are three model with several updates. :/ Pretty confusing right.

Important tools links:
[TOOL] Huawei Multi-Tool v8 by Team MT by inside!out
TWRP Honor 7X img
Stage 1
Download from here everything you need for the procedure - Download Folder Link
I am testing it on my BND-L21 firmware from BND-AL10
Downloading firmware (from topic). Full firmware must be more than 1.5Gb, all smaller is just
OTA Updates to the system.
After that we must download Huawei-MultiTool (future MT) version 8.x.x (link topic)
and downloading custom recovery. We will use TWRP for Honor7x (link topic)
Last we must prepare OTG Cable, SD Card more than 4Gb. On first stage that's all.
Stage 2
Go to MT and reboot phone to Fastboot mode (while phone off, hold "Volume -" and power)
If you did all correctly, you will see in the down right side your number and "Fastboot".
Now go in MT to the Bootloader and check the status. If you have already unlocked, skip this.
If you have locked phone, you must have IMEI and Huawei account. (if not please unlock your bootloader via the Huawei site)
After that, go to Recovery menu and choose our TWRP image in "Custom recovery" section and
type "Recovery". IMPORTANT!!! DON'T FLASH ERECOVERY, I DON'T HAVE THIS IMAGE!!!
After flashing recovery, we must turn off our phone.
Now we must to prepare base system image. In archive we have UPDATE.ZIP file. extract this
file to custom folder and open "Unbrick" in MT and choose "extractor". Open our file in extractor
and click right mouse key on empty space, choose extract all... and choose custom folder to
extracting.
Go to the folder and copy file VENDOR.IMG to the SD-Card (or USB with OTG). Turn on your
device in Recovery mode (Volume + and power), choose Wipe and Wipe ALL partitions! After
doing this, go to Install and choose "Install img", go to the SD-Card, and install VENDOR.img to
VENDOR folder (Important!)
After installing reboot phone again to Fastboot mode and connect to PC.
Now we must download .zip update to your region. We need this for using LTE (4G) in your country + Localization.
After downloading open .zip archive with our CUST file. archive must be called update_BND-
YOUR-NUMBER_hw_YOUR- COUNTRY.zip
From this archive we must extract .img file from root folder. It can be called cust.img CUST.img
version.img etc.
if name different from CUST.img rename it and put to the extracted UPDATE.app folder.
Last Stage 3
In MT go to Unbrick, choose our unpacked system with our CUST file and we must have at least
4/5 checkbox. And just type "UNBRICK" and wait. NOTICE: at moment of extracting system.img
it will be about 10-15 minutes. It's not a freezing of PC)
After good installing in log you will see like "All ok" Just reboot phone and you will see low level
factory reset, or something else like formatting. After formatting phone will reboot to the system.
That's all
Flashing Gapps method coming soon...

there is a procedure used by EU users to completely revive the phone using the OTA but the procedure is too long which i haven't tried yet and is completely for users who have dead phones for now and yes obviously there is no official firmware available for Honor 7x but the user from an EU forum revived his phone so it is possible from the images.
though i made this thread for users who want to update their firmwares and not the procedure to flash a stock firmware since there is not one available yet but i can point to the thread where this user posted the procedure if someone wants to try. PM me

There are teams who have unlocked a lot of stuff like flashing international FW,
flashing gapps on chinese fw, Automatic Call Recording, restoring the phone.
so i am in contact with them to make our phone better. lets keep our fingers crossed. :fingers-crossed:
i am waiting for firmware flashing to get it translated from one of the users.
This is the full recovery package right? Atleast for the Indian version?

They arent recovery packages. they are full OTA which can be flashed for updating.
but there is a process to compile them into making them stock firmware packages but due to the long procedure i didnt post it here. rather wait for official stock firmware package.

Hello Honor 7X Users, turns out there is firmware available for flashing for the AL10 and L21 variants
but i haven't tried them out and can post the procedure if someone needs it but all credit goes to PRO-TEAMMT for releasing them for us so now if we mess up we got official firmware's latest available to go back to.
I personally haven't tested any but i soon will.

exactly what you want to do?
this is to update to the latest firmware. if you have the latest firmware you dont need it.
the multi tool is used to flash stock with a procedure which is only needed to return to stock or else theres no need for it for the most part..

1) ???
2) Not sure there is always a chance of bricking
3) Yes, if you don't know what you're doing. No if you're not going to be flashing anything.
4) You should be able to and also refer to #1.
5) None available
6) None available
7) You can't, no stock image released = no procedures to unbrick

1- can i upgrade the system at every update (when the device is rooted) with Firmware finder many times even if I don't recive the notification on the phone of the update (or if the device updater cannot find it)?
2-ok but if do all right steps you cannot brick the phone, no?
3-ok i only wanna unlock bootloader, flash twrp and root the phone. If I do all right steps there are no risks, no?
4-i don't understand it (in hisuite there s the option that says "Update device". With the device rooted can I update the phone with this software?)
5-ok but can I do one with a custom recovery, no?
6-ok so we just have to wait, no?
7-ok. Same thing of the - 6 (we have to wait for the UPDATE.APP for the 7x to be able to UNBRICK the phone in case it could happen, no?)

1. yes you can if the app supported honor 7x with their firmware but it doesn't yet, use twrp
2. yes you can upgrade via flashing it in twrp
3. unlocking bootloader itself is dangerous let alone rooting since your waranty is gone since there is still no sign of official stock firmware
4. same as no. 1 ans
5. if u flashed twrp you can do your nandroid backup which can be later restored anytime so it will be obv on the phone at that time
6. manual or local update? in the op main post i guess? by opening the link?
7. Still no official firmware and the procedure i am aware of consists of turning the official chinese firmware into normal by changing settings and stuff which is a long procedure so probably if u brick, u r stuck until honor decides to release stock firmware
by the looks i guess you have no clue about phone flashing, its better you dont try anything until there are guides properly made for newbies. :silly:

I rooted my 7X(Al10) version successfully but while performing the reset, deleted the system file also by mistake. There is no TWRP backup. Is there any way to get the stock OS files again to flash in TWRP ? Or does anyone have a backup file they made that they can share? I tried Huawei e-recovery too, but that gets stuck at 'unable to get package info'. The people at the service centre can't think of any other method to restore the phone, except changing the motherboard. When is the official stock file expected to be available?

I have a TWRP backup not sure if it'll work, https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EntdgNwcJSOTZizqt_W-yWfkd3-YVmCm/view?usp=drivesdk
It's a zip file with 2 backup folder, one with boot and system and one with vendor
Edit: pls thank if it worked, so I have an indicator of the effectiveness

1. In the app firmware finder there are firmwares for the phone but how can I flash a official firmware (OTA I mean) if there are no one (or how can I flash a firmware finder Update)?
2. Same thing in -1 (I mean)
3. Ok. Now we have to wait the official stock firmware, no? (i don't understand this answer, please write it in another way)
4. I don't understand it
5. Okok (obv? Sorry I'm Italian hahaha)
6. It's not the same thing local or manual? Write it in another way please hahaha google translate doesnt help me?
7. Okok, So if I don't use your method I only have to wait that honor release the official stock firmware (UPDATE. APP). And for greater security it's better wait it before to root and unlock bootloader etc, no?
Anyway, I have an idea of what flashing is, in fact every device I have (they are all Samsung, so that's why I'm disoriented) is completely modified. The fact is that I dont have much experience (I'm 14 years old) with non-Samsung devices, in fact my honor 7x I received for Christmas and for the hurry and the want to modify it, I would like to know all these things.
Thank you

OK thanks I'll keep it aside in case of brick
I would recommend everyone to not do experiments over your phone to try and root and flash random stuff..
they only have official chinese firmware for flashing so its better to wait for the official firmware for non chinese version.
the method which i know of to flash on the phone is for people with flashing knowledge cz the procedure is not simple and secondly even i have been flashing my phone for many years on various devices yet i havent got the guts to root this first honor device cz their partitions are different and somewhat secured so dont play with it.
wait for the official firmware for your respective devices. maybe they will straightaway launch the oreo firmware.
