Well it may be nooby for me to ask such question idk but I googled and haven't found answers.
So what is the difference between the both?
I am a Indian User so which one is preferred?
Also my software channel right now in my hardware information is retin. So if i flash a sanders based rom will there be any problems like small problems(crashes,fc) or big problems(soft brick ,hard brick)?
Well "Sanders" is your device code name and "RetIN" if your device channel, Like for India it is "RetIn" and for Brazil it's "RetBr". "Ret" implies "Retail".
Hope this clears your doubt.
Thank you so much! @geekychandu

Hi @ll !
I dont know a skilled community like this so i ask you these question.
There is a Community about Fishfinders and they got a Problem.
Humminbird produces US Products and International Products. The international are multilanguage but the US aren`t.
So if somebody want to use the device in another timezone the zone is locked.
The firmware files are for both versions the same. I guess the device look at the SN# and knows the version of the device.
So there is a software lock in the firmware. I guess the os of the devices is a mini linux because i extracted certain files.
The users will donate a successfull work. ( perhabs some hundred dollars?! )
I am not a pro in modding/hacking software so i ask you to help.
If there is any interest i will give you the the firmware *.bin.
Here the link to the project :

Thank You
Hello everyone,
First of all, I'd like to apologize for resurrecting a topic that was opened by an irresponsible poster, but through my searches, I was not able to find any conclusive information on this topic. I can see that the other three locked threads on the topic have about 1000 views in total, so I believe this topic deserves an open and constructive thread.
The question is, has anyone tried to install firmware for the P880 model on the P880G model we have here in Canada? As far as I know, this model is not available anywhere else. I would appreciate comments from users who may have some insight in the subject, but more importantly, I'd like to hear the results if someone has tried this.
Since the P880G model supports different UMTS frequencies than the P880 model, my guess would be that as long as the baseband firmware does not change the phone should work fine, but as this is my first Android phone there may be other issues that I'm not aware of. Also I don't know whether updating to a new firmware would also change the baseband firmware.
Thanks for your input!

You can be the first one...
As far as I know the flash method is the same, soo, why the new thread?
If you have an issue with different basebands the story is different but, there are some discussions on that. Not about Canada but
related with other countries. You can post your problem or doubt there.
And its enough when you google a little to know the differences about the "P880" and "P880G".
And if I good remember, I already help someone with an issue of that kind.
You have 2 posts, this is one of them... the best for all of us (you, me, and all other users) is that you start to use the "search" option.
Welcome to xdadevelopers, have fun being helped and helping the others.
Thank you. :good:

You can only install the canadian firmwares, so you re stuck with the v10f of windmobile. If you try installing a P880 firmware (like the v20A Euro Open) it will just keep rebooting. I think we have to wait for the canadian update

You don't understand? It's really not difficult and if you actually bothered to read some of the existing threads you wouldn't have needed to open this pointless one :banghead:
I guess you didn't learn your alphabet?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app

A is the oldest(I'm not sure) then B then C .... until we get H .
Sent From LG-P880

Guys he just asked question if you dont want to tell him which one is latest dont,
At OP
See for yourself which firmware is latest,
And here is nice tutorial flashing it.
It depends on your carrier or most likely your IMEI and the region, if you plug in your headphones and it shows " volume turned down to protect your ears" then you have the latest.
Update in order?
So, two questions to which I haven't found the answer, though it may be because I haven't figured out the correct search terms. 1) Why, if they're updating things such as battery performance and camera focus issues, do different regions have different firmware versions. Presumably, the phone has the same issues worldwide, so why wouldn't they just update globally? 2) Do you have to apply these updates in order? I received my 4x two days ago and it has version e. Do I need to go f, g, h? or will h cover the previous two? Sorry if the answers are in here, but I haven't found them. Thank you

just keep up with latest firmare of your region. Don't need other region's firmware. Development is different in every region. They don't work together that much. So no chanche of global update. Even with jelly bean, different regions will get it in different time as for example honk kong may get within 1st half, 13 and in that place europe (euro open) may get in first quarter (maybe next month). But we will be always be able to flash other country's firmware.
I generally realize that if a phone says it's up to date, then it's up to date. However, this phone was never meant to be in my region (USA) so do I try and find the region it was intended for and keep up with the updates for that region or just leave it be?
I purchased a 6/128 global used off swappa. It's set to be delivered in a few days. To be honest, I should have researched a bit before buying because I'm pretty lost. Looking for some knowledge.
I think I understand the bootloader unlock deal, going forward tho are there certain twrp recoveries for certain models? I've read the threads and doesn't seem like any of them are working fully yet, yet I see where people have rooted and flashed other roms so they must work well enough? Are certain roms only compatible with certain models?
I also gather there are 3 different versions?
EU = European
CN = China
? = Global
Yet I see roms labeled eea, eu etc. Basically, I'm just a bit confused and looking for some plain insight.
Every TWRP could be unstable at the moment, but i saw that there is information about compatibility so check the thread comments.
(MI = Global as far as i know)
EDIT:
For global firmware, use this by @randomblame
for chinese firmware/xiaomi.eu use this by wzsx150
I don't know what to use for EU firmware, but i'd try the same as for Global.

With my limited experience with Xiaomi, I wasn't sure if these were common issues or just more so because the phones relatively new. I've been with Android since pre-ordering the HTC/T-Mobile g1 but for some reason, reading on this phone is confusing me. I went with it because of the price to performance ratio and am sure I'll get a grasp on it. Thanks for the reply. My first steps will be unlocking the bootloader and obtaining root, the waiting period is new to me as well but I'm ok with that. I'll most likely want more stock Android but am willing to give MIUI a chance.

You should give it a chance! I thought i'd switch too but with weekly updates, and black themes support, i'm gonna keep it For unlocking you could try my method. Good luck :good:
I really need some help. I am an idiot when it comes to these things. So, I have redmi note 11 4g (china) but there is no single from (apparently because of the mtc chipset). Is there any solution, any unofficial global/eu rom? Only solution I came across is to flash redmi 10 global rom (probably bad idea). Tnx in advance.

Solution for what? Are you bricked?, if you made a mistake, and bought a different device than expected, you at least can flash a GSI, to taste other flavor.
Xiaomi. eu developers don't work on (newer) MediaTek devices, but, rooting, debloating and more, your own stock Miui ROM, you won't find a noticeable difference from miui.eu ROMs though, they're based on China firmware.

Not bricked but as I said, I don't know much except flashing Roms compatible with my model. I couldn't find anything for redmi note 11 4g (as u said, mtk issue). What exactly would I get from rooting except some barely working google services ? Can I flash rom from different model with same specs (Redmi 10) ? Or some method to install working google play... Sorry for bothering...

You may read this https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xiaomi-redmi-note-11-4g-custom-rom.4386685/post-86495567
And flashing from a different device, even it seems to have similar specs, won't work, most likely will brick your device, specially in the IMEI stuff and things around it, so I don't recommend you try it.

Yes, all the ROMs for this device come with Google, just search for a firmware that match your device, I mean, if you have SPES or SPESN, without NFC or with NFC.
