Republic of Gamers update to Android 10

[sirbb]

Hello,

I have just purchased a new Asus Republic of Gamers 12gb/512gb CN version from a UK seller but it has the WW rom listed both for the main rom and for the fingerprint (they are the same - I have checked). It has Android 9 but I want to update it to Android 10.

No updates are available through the automated system update and I have tried manually installing the various roms that are available but it constantly returns "System Update Failed".

Three questions:
1. Is it capable of being updated since it is a CN phone but with WW rom?
2. If it can be updated in its current set-up, which rom do I need?
3. If not, do I need to flash it back to a CN rom so that the rom is the same as the phone (i.e. both CN rather than CN for the phone, and WW for the rom)?

The system specifics are:

Build: PKQ1.190414.001
Java VM: ART 2.1.0
Security: 01.10.2019
Baseband: M3.13.33.31-Yoda_875021,M3.13.33.31-Yoda_875021
Incremental: 16.0631.1910.44-0
Description: WW_Phone-user 9 PKQ1.190414.001 16.0631.1910.44-0
Fingerprint: asus/WW-IO01D/ASUS_IO01_1:9/PKQ1.190414.001/16.0631.1910.44-0:user/release-keys
Device features: 124

Many thanks for your help,

I think you need to update to latest android 9 (.64) rom before you can update to android 10

Thanks for the reply. Where do I find that ROM and how do I do that?

Thanks so much Reg66 - sorted. Did the minor update as you suggested then the Android 10 update. Works perfectly - so easy to do!

Much appreciated!
