If i change my 4x firmware to another countrie (ex: update to austrian firmware , a 4X bought in honk kong), will i still get the Austrian firmware future updates via OTA or just KDZ ?

No idea... you can downgrade to an older Austrian version and see what happends, how the phone upgrades...
If you do, don't forget to give feed back

didnt understand what you mean.
You reverted back to 10c and after that you updated to 10f via OTA and it was only 7,6mb? But did it update to 10f via OTA?

I didn't understood... can you explain?
After update you're not getting what?
After upgrade from V10C to V10F, you went back to V10C, and now you don't have upgrade notification to V10F?
Is that it?
I think you will. The .kdz file is a complete image and the FOTA program is included, so it should not stop you from getting those updates. However i've never needed to flash a .kdz, so can't tell exactly. But why worry? If the OTA doesen't work, you can still flash it manually.
first phone was on 10c and ota found update with 7.6mb
i decided to update 10f kdz and updated to 10f
and thenn want some persian lang and rtl support so i re falashed v10c and tried ota but found nothing

by flashing manually, you mean with the Lg Mobile tool? does it wipe your data/games?

Using LG Official software will delete everything, at least with me...
You can upgrade using the tradicional unofficial method to keep the apps that you have.
I use to flash with the web upgrade/ official tool but, when I'm just "playing" with the "flash" (using the unofficial) all my apps, setting, everything remains, no matter if I upgrade or downgrade and if I downgrade and upgrade again...
But if your goal is to see if the official software upgrades, its better to do a backup!!!

What do you mean with "continent firmware"? The latest in europe (open, all languages. To be honest I don't understand why there are open_portugal; open_italy; etc... if the firmware is the same) is V10F, in Brasil V10B...
But there you can use the europe V10F

There is no Brazilian portuguese language on europe firmware, only portuguese from portugal. thats why im moving to brazilian 10a firmware. after that, i will check if OTA update itself to brazilian firmware 10b.
If NOT, than updating the firmware from one countri/continent like europe for example, to another countries firmware like brazil for example, affects the OTA update.
thats what im going to test tomorow. Im shure people here changed their`s firmware to another region one, but no one told if it still receiving update.

I know that the european version only have PT-PT, but the difference is that big? The improvements in the firmware are not better than the language issue? And that issue it will be in a few cases cause in the keyboard for example, if you choose SwiftKey 3 you can choose PT-BR and in a lot of other apps...
The update OTA... probably you'll see here posted the update first than in your phone.
Is just an opinion, you do what you think its better of course.
Anyway, enjoy your phone and wish you good luck whatever you decide
i tried to update via OTA , but it says, phone not registered. I registered in lg web site but still gives me the same emssage. Should it take a while, or where do i need to register in order to check for updates?
OK, it happened what i suspected:
the phone update itself (not via OTA because it didnt worked for me) to the latest firmware by CHECKING YOUR IMEI. It means that if your original stock firmware is EURO for example, and you install Asian firmware for example, it wont update to the latest Asian firmware, but to the latest EURO firmware because it will check your imei that is Euro, not the firmware you have.
Can i get the ota update simply or will it brick my rooted phone
Secondly if i delete all the unnecessary apps and unroot my phone then can ota update the phone and new Android version will be there without bloatware
Ps when can i expect 6.0 update

If you are rooted right now you will not be able to get ota updates. The only way to update is to go through odin and update or flash a rom with the newest update or unroot your device and then update.
I'd like to answer your second question but I would like some clarification on the question.
And the update to 6.0 could be from a couple of weeks to a couple of months or even longer. It depends on you carrier and samsung of course.
The phone is the international variant 920c dual sim
I have not rooted yet but will love to do it.
If marshmalow is near them i will wait
No rooted phones of Samsung will receive OTA updates. Unroot by flashing the stock rom with ODIN and look for OTA. Or else, download latest stock firmware from samobile or similar websites and update with ODIN. Then re-root if you want.
My PD6 is pretty buggy so I'd liked to get to the official one I guess. Has anyone on PD6 received the update OTA?

As far as I'm aware, there is no OTA from PD6, simply because PD6 is the same build as the OTA. As far as the update server is concerned, you're running the most recent version, so it won't offer you an OTA update. I would say try a factory reset, or if that doesn't work, you may have to wait until we have an Odin file for PD6
I have not seen confirmation, but I assume you could ODIN back to OJ7 and then get the OTA.
As we know OTA update ZV6 coming out with Android patch sercurity level is at 2016-09-01 few day ago.
Let download and try:
ZV5: MEGA
ZV6: MEGA
And you know what, we can downgrade from ZV6 to ZV5 without any problems.

Thanks for the files! Can you please tell how to properly downgrade to ZV5? I tried to do it but every time I hit Start in LGUP, when the bar reaches 9% it shows an error 0x2000 CEFS: Initialize(). I'm trying to downgrade to ZV5 as I unlocked my G5 but there's no data working. Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Could you, please update the links for LS992 ZV6?
Thank you
