Yes, but nothing changed.
When I go to Samsung service center they just suggest for waiting update firmware....
I tried downgrade Bootloader but I can't, Odin always fail....

Could it be your carrier/plan? Can you try with a different phone to compare speeds? How fast is your wifi on the phone (for comparison)?

This phone is capable of a lot more than 1 Mbps right out of the box. I do not see how a fw update is the solution. If your carrier/plan works fast with other phones, then it's your phone that is the problem...If not, then it's a problem with your carrier/plan speed. If you know it's your phone and apn is correct, then try factory reset with stock fw. If still slow, I would return it if not too late or try to get it repaired.

[UPDATE] v20T for Korea

Hi,
I just checked p970 firmwares and i saw this :
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGKU5900/AKTFTL/V20t_00/V20T_00.kdz
It seems to be a new version of GB, but maybe the battery drain from v20Q is corrected...
Could anyone test it (I can't due to my immediate need of my phone)
but basically, Q version is not an asian fw. so maybe this new T is the same as Q but for asia...
Yes maybe,
But what i've not seen is that this firmware is made for KTF, so i doubt it is open for other SIM cards...
if a device is unlocked, a branded FW shouldn't affect that

FW simlock doesn't exist on Android ?
it's device related, FW version doesn't matter
Ok, i didn't know
Is there something new?
yea, if you would, you may flash a sfr branded FW over your orange FW

I'm testing it this night since i'm back at home !
Will update this thread when tested
I just need an advice, since it's a rom for LGKU5900, can installing this could brick my OB ?

I don't think it would brick your phone as I'm currently using a KU5900, and flashed p970's v20o. just don't flash the radios..

Hopefully. But I won't be flashing it immediately if it does. I rely a lot on stock-based kernels. So i'll wait for either DooMKernel or F(X)TrinityUltimateKernel to be updated. Maybe those who already got the update could share with us any changes or improvements?

The kernel should be the same, I doubt a small update like this will have major kernel changes
When I get home I will update and install Doom's advanced stock kernel to gain root again.
I will let you know if it works, but I imagine it will be fine

BTW, I've posted latest FTF in main thread, it's from Vodafone DE.
Just checked PCC but it's not online for me yet! Now I wait.....
Hi Greg,
Have you tried the .118 ROM yet? If so, any difference from .108?

Hot Hot Hot!!
Hi Guys and Gals,
Been running this on my C6903 overnight, and boy is it hot. In fact my device was so hot too the touch that it was almost unbearable.
Because of this I've had to revert back to the '108' build. Is it just me, or is anybody else experiencing this?
Also, on every boot there is a notification relating to mobile data, is this specific to vodafone?
If anybody has another ftf aside from this German one, I would be extremely grateful if you can post it, so that I test and compare, thanks in advance.
Very strange, I finally got around to flashing this and I stayed on the same version, same kernel, same baseband.
Pccompanion said I was up to date now but nothing changed.
Oh well.

Hi, I am trying to load the default software back onto my P10 Plus, It was originally on the GB software and I changed it to the duel sim VKY-L09C432B160, I did that with no problems but now I have downloaded all the right rom files but when I do the HWOTA method it fails, I think its something to do with the OEM file, It has it for most but not for the VKY-L09GBRC555 and I cannot locate it anywhere, Can anybody help?

That method, The HWOTA way, That's older firmware In the link but give that a try to bring your p10 plus back to normality then you can use that guide with the newer software like I did.

u can flash using odin any pie firmware if same model number, ie n960f/d.
sure u know how to flash via odin since u in xda forum, also whether simply flashing odin firmware will void knox or not.
Funny how Samsung is handling this. Having a Note 9 in Malaysia is like having the best hardware with appalling after sales software support. ... Even Chinese competitors like oneplus 6t and huawei mate 20 pro are on Pie here. No wonder Samsung is losing its ground!!!

Still no love for Malaysia user
Just flash it with the latest firmware like everyone else, there are guides on how to do this. Malaysia isn't the only country that doesn't have Pie yet, not sure what isn't being understood here.
Lost my patience and upgraded manually using SD card. Loving it ?

Hi,
I'm curious and really tempting to do so.
Just wondering - by doing this - will not affect our installed apps, right? Finger cross (as i don't see anything saying required to wipe data / internal / factory reset)
How's the One UI performance overall after you installed it?

i did a factory reset after installation. but that was my choice. i was still able to use the apps without the reset. performance wise.. the phone felt smoother after the reset but that will be the case even if i did not update i guess.

Hello everyone and merry Christmas
I got an S21 Ultra and facing some Issues
Seems to be the Korean version with no esim and caller ID for incoming calls isn't matching the name since I have all my contacts in international format
I am reading this can be fixed by changing the csc but I have it fully updated and patched and stock
Any way to solve my issues, preferably without factory reset?
Thanks
