Yes to all. However, I just got it fixed by restoring via the LG PC Suite. Nothing else seemed to want to work.

LG UP got it to start going to the firmware update screen but wasn't able to do anything else.

LG Flash Tool finally started doing something more than waiting for connection but it was just a saying I failed the Model Verification.

I was worried about using the PC Suite since I was rooted but it worked great and I am already rooted again and in the process of installing CM 13.

Thank you for the reply though!

Edit: Looks like it may still have issues with booting into Recovery. It's stuck at the TWRP Splash. It worked fine when I first flashed TWRP though.

[G3 General] duytuan665:
Hey guys, i unbricked my d855 with this tot method. After 87% my phone booted into AT miniOS what is that? Never got this factoryreset 2 screen
[G3 General] hyelton:
Remember anything after 80% is done. Just pull the battery and put it back in. If that don't work then choose reboot on the miniOS
[G3 General] duytuan665:
hey so i want to flash something again but on the device manager instaed of saying lge mobile usb serial port it says lge androidnet usb serial port. so what is the problem? could it be the reason that i use board dl when i unbricked my phone?
[G3 General] hyelton:
No there's no problem. That just means newer drivers or happened after a software update. But andrioidnet lge mobile etc it's the same thing.

Hi

I have an LG G3. D855 32gb/3Gb running stock MM and i need to go back to LP because i appear to have lost connection to my provider (EE UK). I tried LG UP but it shows my D855 as "Unknown" Anyone know how to get LG UP to recognize my phone so I can downgrade . TIA

Stransky
[G3 General] hyelton:
If your running stock there's no reason for it to have lost connection. Other than hardware or your SIM card. Have you not tried a rest?

With the issue with lg up are you using a USB 2.0 port?
[G3 General] Stransky:
Thanks for the quick reply. I tried a reset but that did not work, also tried to downgrade using LG tool 2014 to CSE D85521A but it stopped at 9% and then threw up an error. So then tried LG UP and got Unknown. Used USB 2 port through-out. Even tried different one. Am using a Win 8.1 Laptop as my main PC is running Win 10 and will not recognize my G3 with LG tool 2014. Sees it for everthing else but when it comes to trying any of the rooting or modding tools it does not work.

Stransky
[G3 General] hyelton:
Lg flash tool won't work if your on MM so that's why. LGUP is the only choice once your on MM
[G3 General] Stransky:
Thats strange because my son has a G3 16gb which was on the Polish MM release and I was able to downgrade it using the D855200L .kdz.

How to get LG Up to see my G3 is what i need now.

[G3 General] R.akeel:
HI my LG G3 at&t 4.4.2 I want to update it on lollipop suggest me the easiest way to update? Where I can get the exact firmware files to flash ?
[G3 General] hyelton:
The only way is to OTA update it with an AT&T sim. As there's no firmware sadly.
[G3 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
I'm responding to this, as I had a Failed as well.

Device model - D855

tot method - check

COM port 41 - check

phone crashed from failed upgrade, so yes, all I have is DL mode

unplug/plug in - check

in the flash tool window it shows the following

Before I started any of this, my device was on 10e. Not knowing the origin of my device I can only asume I should be using the EUR tot and dll

Suggestions?

Thank you
[G3 General] hyelton:
That error can be related to phone not being in download mode or using USB 3.0. You must use a USB 2.0 port and the cable that came with the phone.

Also choose board_dl on the tot/dll selection screen.
[G3 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Yes on cable

Yes on 2.0

changed to board_dl

Im rather sure I'm in DL mode. What does the screen say at the top when it' goes beyond the small image? It says Firmware Upgrade, correct?
[G3 General] hyelton:
Yeah, What happened after you changed it to board_dl? And have you tried restarting your computer? As well as rebooting the phone?
[G3 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Same as above. Yes restart. Gave up after serveral hours of trying.

What I'm looking to do is dl your files, in case the ones I had were corrupt. You seem to have many more then I would expect.

I would like a tot/dll for UK D855 30b (for 32gb version), as this would be the newest. I see a D85530B_00... kdz but not tot and dll.
[G3 General] hyelton:
That's because only older tots are available. Tots are not commonly available like kdz files are. Why not try an older tot ?
[G3 General] bender_007:
^ older tot but a new dll file(take the one from lgup package) or the one extracted from a fresh d855 30b kdz

What does the device show once connected to computer? (When it's not in dload mode)

[G3 General] shahriarthe1:
How do i chose kdz file using lgup? it only searches for .tot files.

Need urgent help as my signal drops constantly after flashing MM.
[G3 General] bender_007:
^ delete the tot fileMask and type *.kdz and hit enter,it will show kdz files.

Poslano sa mog LG-H815 koristeći Tapatalk
[G3 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
lol, it only has DL mode;)
[G3 General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
as I tried to say, I'm not sure whcih ones to use from your list. I have a UK D855 32gb
[G3 General] hyelton:
As long as it matches your model you'll be fine.
[G3 General] bender_007:
I thought when the device is off and you connect it to PC, does it go to dload mode straight?

Try lg flash Tool if it's d855 indeed

Poslano sa mog LG-H815 koristeći Tapatalk
[G3 General] hyelton:
I don't think they were having trouble flashing. I think they were just wondering what file to use in the first place.
[G3 General] bender_007:
Oh, I got the idea there was an error actually :)

[G3 General] ferdieses:
help please..

I have LG D855 32GB, but when I tried to flash it using LG Flash Tool tot method it's always failed [14 secs] (can't change to DL mode) otherwise it's stucked on PRIMARYGPT,MODEM,LAF memory size and We can't communicate with phone [977 sec] appeared and also when I use 32GB tot version, it says that the laf memory is 16GB and memory is not matched. My phone is bricked, it can only enter dl mode, even though you're turning it on normally.. it's showing Firmware upgrade blabla 0%, same display when you try to enter dl mode (just LG logo and then skip to firmware upgrade). I don't know what the hell is wrong, I'm using USB 2.0 port, I tried to changing my pc, changing my usb cable. Nothing is work.

and when I use kdz method, it stucked on 10% S/W Upgrade process and the phone is turned off automatically. and then failed again.

the port driver is fine.

btw, I'm using EUR version of file.

Did I miss something? or my phone couldn't enter the DL mode? I think so, and is there anything I can do to fix it?

lg g3 ''not registered on network'' error after flashing stock firmware!!!

i flashed the stock firmware on my lg g3 ls990 using tot method. Phone booted up fine but i am getting not registered on network and service disabled error. I tried re flashing it with stock firmware, reinserted the sim but no luck it is getting no service error...:(:(:confused::confused:
[G3 General] hyelton:
I'm assuming then your not using the phone on sprint? That model is meant mainly for CDMA networks like sprint. That's why your having that problem. You'll need to downgrade or use a different firmware that doesn't block use of the sim slot.
[G3 General] malik7676:
yes i am not using the phone on sprint network. How to fix the issue???
[G3 General] hyelton:
I said in the post above^^. You'll need to flash a different old version most likely. Just go look in the sprint G3 forums for the best awnser to that.

[MENTION=2607037]hyelton[/MENTION]

Further to my previous post，am now on D85521D. As I stated previously I was able to downgrade from MM using LG Tool 2014. I first rooted MM and installed TWRP and then wiped the phone using TWRP shut down and restarted in Download mode and carried on from there

BTW for anyone who does not know which country their phone belongs to thereis an app on Play Store “LG Phone From” which will tell you and also what the latest firmware for the phone is.

Stransky
[G3 General] hyelton:
How does the app know what country and latest firmware? Most of the apps I've seen will tell you but only tell you what's current installed not what's original to the phone.
[G3 General] Stransky:
The app gives production info i.e. in my case ATWNTN Taiwan which is where my phone came from. It also displays the phone Ime and will confirm if the phone is original (Not fake)

Oh okay that's great!
[G3 General] KiaTheKing:
So i ran into a small problem, i've had fulmics rom and i wanted to revert to stock 30b, so i flashed it via recovery and everything was great, i realised that i pressed install SuperSu after installing stock rom, SUper SU Installer app came on app drawer and i pressed it and went to install (lol), after that i've runned into bootloop and some weird blue/red lights was flashing and something about boot verification was wrong, then i did full wipe and installed rom again, it didnt worked well so i gone to PC and runned Lg Flashtool and started flashing new firmware, then it was not working for a few times and after all it stuck at 2% i guess that battery was drained and i disconnected my phone from pc, putted battery away for a minute and after that i connected my phone to charger, phone is now on charging for about 15 minutes and it doesnt seems to be alive, when i press power on nothing happens, i will wait for a while and connect it to pc, any suggestions?

Allright, sorry for double post, phone is regonized as LG Android USB Device but still dead... Any suggestion? [MENTION=3279781]bender_007[/MENTION] (majke ti, pomagaj, crce mi g3)
[G3 General] hyelton:
Can you not put the phone into download mode? Or fast boot? If not its dead. Not sure what you meant by you wanted to revert it back to stock and you flashed via recovery? There's no 100% stock way of flashing via recovery.

I used TOT method on my LS990 using on Sprint, now I cant get LTE/4G. Is there any partitions that don't get wiped out using this method? Maybe something containing network settings? Thank you
[G3 General] hyelton:
so your using it on Sprint? Did you check the apn settings and network settings to make sure? The flash wouldn't take anything out.
[G3 General] curtvan:
Yes I am on Sprint. I found I can look at APN settings using NOVA Launcher's shortcut action, but I cant edit them, and if I could edit them I wouldn't know what to change them to. Before I went back to stock, I flashed Resurrection Remix and it bootlooped. Ever since then I haven't been able to get LTE/4G. I wonder if that messed with my APN settings? And I wonder if I tried going back to Res Remix if it would put the correct settings back?
[G3 General] hyelton:
Well when you flash a stock firmware it puts everything back to stock including the apn. Check with sprint to refresh there side?
[G3 General] curtvan:
That's what I was wondering, maybe I will try again. I am actually on TIng using Sprint network so I don't know if I can get the other side refreshed. I think I will try Res Remix and if that doesn't work go back to stock again. Thank you for all your help.
[G3 General] hyelton:
Ahhhhh maybe it would be apn related then since your using ting. But never really messed with that so that's over my head

Nope it wont got to dl mode, it wont turn on at all, it seems that battery is not charging at all so it wont power on.
[G3 General] KiaTheKing:
So i've bricked the phone obviously (my first time to brick phone, yayyyyy) . Phone is showed as LGE AndroidNet USB Modem , any suggestions?

[G3 General] BlackLeader787:
Hello :)

Any mirrors for the TOT'S file ? (LG G3 EUR 16GB)

Thx :D
[G3 General] hyelton:
What's wrong with the Op links?
[G3 General] BlackLeader787:
It's very slow downloading :(
[G3 General] hyelton:
Strange,

Are you using a download manager? No speed issues here. The links are hosted on a server which is on a 2Gbps port :p
[G3 General] BlackLeader787:
Only downloading at 100 ko/s ... Anyway

I try the TOT's method because I tried the first one but it failed many times (I was on a Fulmic 6.0 rom, wanted to go to a stock one) ; will the TOT's one work?
[G3 General] hyelton:
Won't know till you try. Both methods work just fine. Depends on what you mean by failed? Are you putting the phone into download mode? And using a USB 2.0 port? USB 3.0 won't work.

If it's slow try using a download manager. Speeds are normal here Eastern US and on my 2nd server in the Netherlands (which may be closer to you)
[G3 General] BlackLeader787:
Waow didn't think that the USB port would be important ... THX MAN ! Just boot in Marshmallow :D

Now, I flashed the stock rom to have a clean base for reinstalling Fulmic : what do I have to do ? Root + TWRP ?
[G3 General] hyelton:
Glad it worked :). Yes using USB 2.0 is important :). I'd assume so lol. Sorry stock only here :) too many LG devices I manage to keep up with custom roms , root, etc.
[G3 General] BlackLeader787:
Yeah ok I will take a look ;)

Thanks again ! :)

Hi,

I'm trying to flash my D855 (Europe, 32GB) from the installed stock 30B down to something below 12B so I can root and install CM (required as per their instructions and purpledrake seems to agree). I have tried both the TOT method (with LGD855AT-V10e-EUR, LGD855AT-V10b-HKG & LGD855 V10b-TWN, on different usb 2 ports, always aborting with "Model Information Check FAIL!") and the KDZ method (with Germany_D85510A, Germany_D85510L and Northern_Europe_D85510A all failing to connect/install and Europe_D85530B installing fine, but that is the version I'm already on and it is too high for my purposes).

I have read both this thread in its entirety as well as searched the forums, but while I can find a few people with the same problem I cannot find a solution and would be very happy for a couple of pointers (No, not the C kind ;) ). I'm not afraid to use minicom and hexedit if need be, just haven't had a non-nexus phone before and am a bit dumbfounded by the difficulty in rooting this thing :P
[G3 General] hyelton:
Model info check failed is related to phone not being in download mode, or not using a USB 2.0 port. Did you make sure your USB ports your trying are 2.0? 3.0 won't work and will cause that exact error. Also make sure your using the cable that came with the phone. If all else fails reboot your computer or try a different computer.
[G3 General] toothbrushqt:
Hi, I rooted my lg g3 back when I got it almost a year ago and I haven't been able update it since so I'm using this 2015 ToT method to roll it back so I can do updates again, the problem I'm having is after installing everything and pulling my battery after shutting down my phone, when I plug in the usb while holding volume up, I get a screen that shows an phone/battery with a usb plugged into the bottom with a "?" caution triangle sign. When I look in Device Manager it doesn't show up, there's one that shows up with the same yellow caution triangle but that's it. If I keep holding the volume button it makes a usb connected noice on my pc but that's it. How can I get past this?
[G3 General] hyelton:
Is the battery removed when doing this? From what you said you never said you put the battery back in the phone. There's no reason to take the battery out, and the battery has to be IN the phone. Also are you sure your using a usb 2.0 port?? USB 3.0 will not work and won't put your phone into download mode.

Your computer is not detecting it cause it has to be in download mode first.
[G3 General] heaphu:
Just used this method on my Sprint LS990. Everything went according to the instructions, but when it restarts I get a blue "Factory Reset Status" page with a red "2". I can't get past this. Going into recovery mode and doing a factory reset doesn't fix it. What am I missing?
[G3 General] hyelton:
On the tot and dll selection screen choose board_dl and reflash
[G3 General] heaphu:
Ok, done. Now I have this AAT - Mini OS 3.1 page, and it ran a test. Not sure what to do with it now.
[G3 General] zan.:
I have a korean version lg g3 f400. I want to go back from an AOSP MM custom ROM to stock lollipop. Can I do that with the flash tool?
[G3 General] hyelton:
Pull battery and put back in and your done :)
[G3 General] hyelton:
Yes, it's the only way
[G3 General] heaphu:
It just boots back to that same Mini OS 3.1 screen.
[G3 General] hyelton:
Then select reboot on that screen.
[G3 General] heaphu:
Can't select anything on that screen, does nothing.
[G3 General] hyelton:
Use volume and power button to scroll and select? That screen is normal and a reboot the correct way it will boot into android.
[G3 General] BlackLeader787:
Hello hyelton,

Tried to flash the MM 30B kdz with LGUP (from Lollipop), but now I've got a bootloop ... What can I do ?

Thx !
[G3 General] hyelton:
You chose refurbished right?
[G3 General] heaphu:
The volume and power buttons don't work/do anything on that screen.
[G3 General] hyelton:
There's a way to choose reboot by hitting it. The screen responses are slow but do work. So pulling the battery didn't work? Have you tried holding down power and volup to reboot the phone that way? Usually a battery pull takes it away.
[G3 General] BlackLeader787:
Yep, but still it bootloops
[G3 General] hyelton:
Did you finally get it?
[G3 General] heaphu:
No. I can't get it to boot into Android.
[G3 General] hyelton:
You have to select reboot on that mini os screen.
[G3 General] heaphu:
I finally got it. Had to press and hold the power button while pressing "Normal Boot". I really appreciate your help!!
[G3 General] hyelton:
Your welcome :). Glad you got it!

Im freeaking out

I accidentally flashed a ROM that wasnt made for my phone. I have and LG G3 d851, and i accidentally flashed the wrong one. Subsequently it has haed bricked my phone. I cannot get into TWRP or even d/l mode,, i see there is a method where i would have to take the phone apart and i am not ready to do that. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated
[G3 General] hyelton:
If you have a "hard brick" thats not fixable. device You'd need download mode.

If there's any possible way you'd HAVE to take it apart for a test point OR change out the motherboard.
[G3 General] vance74:
will the download mode become available after the 1st part? i ask because i am not near a PC at the moment
[G3 General] hyelton:
What first part? This guide only works IF you have download mode. It doesn't enable it.
[G3 General] Littledutch62:
When I download D85520i it downloads with txt extension what can I do
[G3 General] hyelton:
That would be your computer changing it. Just change the ext back to kdz.

[G3 General] mistororange:
I've used this tool to restore my LG G2 plenty of times, I just purchased a G3 and soft bricked it trying to root... so I restored using this method, and now my imei number has been changed to a generic one I guess? I don't understand how this happend or what im suppose to do to fix it any help is appreciated it
[G3 General] hyelton:
That happens if you flash an incorrect firmware / wrong model.
[G3 General] mistororange:
I downloaded the firmware and dll from the OP, the ls990zv4
[G3 General] hyelton:
And you have an LS990? What's the IMEI all zeros?
[G3 General] mistororange:
yes the Sprint LG G3, no not all zeros, its just a random imei, it matches no devices when you check it on swappa or anything its 35XXXXXX0000004 (X'S just to block the full number didnt know if its illegal to show or w/e)
[G3 General] hyelton:
Strange. Did you buy it used? That seems like it's had a "fixed" IMEI.
[G3 General] mistororange:
Yes I purchased it off eBay, it came in original box, that has the correct imei, it was activated on ring plus working great, then decided to root it, soft bricked, and used LG flash tool, an noticed it woudln't reactivate or show any signal, an I looked an it shows that as the imei, which doesnt match the one on the box
[G3 General] hyelton:
That's really odd. The IMEI would only change to all zeros if it were to change at all. Try and reflash?
[G3 General] mistororange:
I forgot to mention, that following the exact steps in the original post, gives the blue screen in mini os with giant red 2, and from reading on a post on reddit and few other places, the fix or work around, is your select board dl, and run it that way, an once it goes into mini os, you can then choose to boot the phone normally, an that fixed that restore issue for me.. maybe that could have had something to do with it? i'll try an reflash and see.. thanks for the help
[G3 General] hyelton:
Yeah that's normal. You don't always have to use board dl but if your phone gets stuck at blue screen 2 then you use board dl I think i said it just a day or so ago here. But no that won't cause that issue.
[G3 General] mistororange:
I just flashed again, this time choose the lollipop tot, instead of the kitkat, one, same diff, icc id reads correctly, but still gives diff imei, im so confused
[G3 General] hyelton:
That makes me think somehow the IMEI was faked.
[G3 General] mistororange:
I searched the imei, and this thread comes up, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2696939
[G3 General] hyelton:
Yeah but that's if the IMEI goes to all zeros. But it seems like for you it's going to a randomly generated IMEI. Which I've never seen before.
[G3 General] mistororange:
no if you read down a few a guy post that he now has wrong imei,, and the one he list is the exact imei that mine has now changed to

LGUP not working
[G3 General] heirfister:
I want to downgrade from marshmallow back to lollipop so I tried the LGUP method, it detects my phone but the model is unknown tried both on download mode and when the device is turned on and also tried to restart while its connected and LGUP is running. LG Bridge doesn't recognize my device either. Is there any other way to downgrade to lollipop?
[G3 General] hyelton:
Are you using a usb 2.0 port? Usb 3.0 doesn't work. Lg up and flash tools are the only ways.
[G3 General] heirfister:
I'm using usb 2.0 port, and my os is windows 10 should I try on windows 7?
[G3 General] hyelton:
That shouldn't matter for LGUP. I think when it's unknown with LGUP you may need to do a build.prop change. I haven't had many issues on my own side with LGUP so it's hard for me to troubleshoot.
[G3 General] heirfister:
what do I need to change on build.prop for LGUP to detect my model, and I need to root right? to change build.prop.
