Hi there bro.

Thanks again. I was putting the folder in the wrong directory.

I have installed my stock LL Rom.

The overheating issue is less.

The battery duration is just 3 hours .

So I can admit that the problem wasn't the firmware .

The same with KK would happen.

I don't even know what would be the problem even with the new battery it's the same.

So I am resignated that my phone will not work like I wish.

The last thing I'm gonna try is with another charger . but that is much more difficult to me to get it.

Thank you so much .

I know when LG will release officially Android MM for my device ( d858 lg hk ) so that you can install without root or otherwise without other steps ... thanks
[G3 General] Abdul Wahab Abrar:
Did you receive Android L for your G3 D858HK?
[G3 General] waqasr:
Brother please dont assume you will have the same issues on KK with out

trying it out. Like I said many people when they upgraded to L from KK

experienced over heating issues!!

I myself tried L but reverted back due to having bad battery times!!

If you are using the original charger there shouldn't be a problem.

Are you using original charger? take a pic and upload it here plz.

My charger is white colored and has a big LG sign on one side.

Output is 1.8A.

You are most welcome, most people with our model are still sitting on KK waiting for

official Lollipop OTA release so please don't hold your breath while you wait!!

I have KK and I just checked my update center, It says I am on latest software version :)

For your kind information, official MM has been released but you will have to take some

additional steps to upgrade but since you know it all you should wait for OTA!!

All the best!!!
[G3 General] fedepalla:
thanks again the answer ... unfortunately as I read a little above I noticed that my device tells me that I l`ultima version of the software but did not make me upgrade to Lollipop ... even then I fear that I will make with device update never software ... what do you say ? it's worth it to spend a lollipop ? and to MM ?

Hi friends any one have idea when we get lolipop update?
[G3 General] razers:
Me too :(

the downgrade worked like a charm, but no f***ing way to receive the 10f OTA update..
[G3 General] Celso1974:
Dont wait for it just into your update center and update or General/aboutphone/common/updatecenter/software update
[G3 General] razers:
I tried the manual update a million times..
[G3 General] razers:
Hi gingerbanana,

sorry: you cannot receive pvt, so I'm writing you "in public".

Have you found a way to solve the "10f OTA issue"?

Ehmm.. my mistake! Found it, going pvt..
[G3 General] MingMing64:
How do you solve this? I can not 10F OTA for my D858HK after downgrade to 10D.
[G3 General] razers:
I didn't.. still no way to have the 10f OTA update.
[G3 General] mariosm1cy:
Here you can download and install it by yourself if you like

[G3 General] razers:
I still do not understand why, using my IMEI, I can't download the new firmware.

Maybe is for the same unknown reason I cannot have the OTA update?

[MENTION=804688]gingerbanana[/MENTION] [MENTION=6384406]MingMing64[/MENTION]

Are you able to download the new firmware using yuor IMEI on http://lg-firmware-rom.com/ ?
[G3 General] mariosm1cy:
I can using my imei, that is why i pasted the link, to help out

It is weird why you cannot
[G3 General] BsofBordeaux:
How do you install this?

I downloaded the ROM contained in the link.

How do I install this?
[G3 General] topet2k12001:
Hm...the problem is, if you install the full ROM directly (version 10F) you will lose root.

This is because version 10F cannot be rooted yet. You have to be at version 10D (lower version) because the older version of ROM can be rooted. The only way to have a rooted 10F is:

1. Downgrade to version 10D

2. Root the phone

3. Update to 10F via OTA

In any case, I would say that it's okay to stay at 10D and just enjoy having root. As I have mentioned in my previous post, the only update of 10F is "call enhancements" and the addition of the "T Action" feature (which I don't use, really).
[G3 General] mariosm1cy:
Guys, do we have anything official even an estimate, at when are we getting lollilop?
[G3 General] davelyh:
you can try update 5.0 through your computer by using LG software

i just update 5.0 (20B) last night by LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL
[G3 General] mariosm1cy:
How is that possible? It means lg released the firmware for d858hk. Where did you get the rom? Another question, do you still have root?
[G3 General] unze:
no new version through LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL :(

Also tried country setting 'China'
[G3 General] GraeWood:
I'm the new owner of a G3 D858HK, had to join to ask a question or two!

Couldn't resist the 32gb /3gb version, and found it for a bargain price, at the gamble of having it shipped from China.

I too am having issues with upgrading to lollipop 5.0

No option to do it via LG suite, or whatever it's called.

My imei (neither of them) gives me the option to download the firmware from that link.

Clicking the link to download that losenti posted, currently downloading it. But I literally have no clue how to install it, all this rooting or not rooting, or general phone tweaking business is pretty new to me.

Only really hoping to update in the hope that it aids my slightly intermittent signal connection. It just doesn't seem as strong as it was on my Galaxy S3.

Otherwise though, the phone is amazing.
[G3 General] :
fake

lg-firmware-rom dot com is just to steal IMEI and fake, don't enter your imei there
[G3 General] waqasr:
Brother it looks original please also take a picture of the other end with all

the numbers etc etc!
[G3 General] eddyhiggins:
Este es el otro lado . this is the other side .
[G3 General] waqasr:
Brother this looks pretty much same as mine.

You can try to charge your phone via USB port on your computer to

test if your charger or bad or not. It will take longer to charge but at least

you can rule out of your charger is good or bad.

You are running out of options, Trying out KK is pretty much your only

option left. I am afraid if KK gives you same issue then what are we going

to do :(
[G3 General] eddyhiggins:
Yes I'm running out of options.

I think KK will give me the same problem.

Before I installed MM the problem that's why I returned to LL but nothing seem to work . im seriously thinking that is a harware issue bro.
[G3 General] waqasr:
I am sorry but I don't understand your question.

Giving out some general info:

If you never got an update for Lollipop chances are you won't get MM update either.

Only way update your phone to L or MM is via flashing it via LG Flash tool, LGUP, and

Flashing the Pre-Rooted Zip!

All the best!

---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:17 PM ----------

Bro there is a good chance KK might resolve your issue.

That firmware may contain older drivers/radio or something I am not sure but

it gives me the best battery timings!!

Please don't assume and just give it a shot, its very simple straight forward

procedure.

Also you can try Carbon Rom and CM which are both based on Lollipop 5.1.1!!

[G3 General] tampitzel:
Some dude un GSMarena is saying something about CSE flash. I think it's a method of flashing the phone other than "normal flash". I am guessing no one here waited for the OTA and we all flashed our phones.

I am thinking about trying the CSE flash later tonight, but I am not sure what that means. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Quoting the guy: those having battery issues. guys have you tried CSE on flash tool. if not try that and make sure you have SDcard/sim card removed. if problem still exist, then try to factory reset your phone.

Can anyone more experienced confirm what does the CSE flash do extra, rather than a normal flash? Maybe wipes battery stats or something? Can anyone confirm? Thanks!
[G3 General] waqasr:
Bro CSE Flash is simply fresh/clean install, meaning it formats/wipes your data/phone!!

I have always used CSE Flash when I installed Lollipop and KK.
[G3 General] dinamo1975:
it is possible to reinstall stock LOLLIPOP over the stock MM on this LGD858HK??? How brothers?
[G3 General] adaml12:
Use the LG FlashTool V1.*.* instead of Mobile support tool.

Extract the last lolipop kdz with KDZ extractor you 'll get a .DZ and a .dll file.

Use these in LG Flash tool

EDIT: Here is a google drive folder with files all you need.

drive . google . com / folderview?id=0B6N7CC6Wm0hzank0eHVTVkN4OU0&usp=sharing

My phone can't boot to mini OS it's started normaly. If you get that problem just unplug the USB cable before the flashtool starts again the flash.

Use the factory cable!!!!!!! (Or other LG!!! cable). I tryed other cable (Samsung and Huawei). It's not working.

If you get problem reinstall the driver version.

Ask me and I 'll help.
[G3 General] dinamo1975:
i need a pass
[G3 General] adaml12:
I used this method to go back to lolipop.

It's working

You can use the DZ file instead of TOT

:)
[G3 General] bender_007:
You can flash anything you have, tot or kdz, LGUP.. (refurbish only if you´re going down)
[G3 General] dinamo1975:
With LGUP i can flash only .tot file
[G3 General] dinamo1975:
pass???
[G3 General] adaml12:
Use the pogram that in the shared folder.

It can flash a dz file

(Delete the spaces from the link)

Replace the megalock.dll in C:\LG\LGFlashTool with uploaded dll

CM 12 have issues with Wi-Fi . can you give me some screenshot of the carbon Rom in the LG g3. I?don't know how it looks. Thanks. Is it true that I have to do a complete flash wiping system. Cache. And dslvid cache
[G3 General] topet2k12001:
Hi [MENTION=4920939]dinamo1975[/MENTION],

Some notes about LGUP:

1. If you choose "Refurbish", the only selection will be .tot

2. If you choose "Upgrade", the .kdz selection will be available (as well as .tot)

Therefore: if you are flashing a .kdz file, select "Upgrade" even if you are downgrading to a lower version of Android. This will allow you to select the .kdz file. After that, you can now select "Refurbish".
[G3 General] eddyhiggins:
I'm a little confused this Rom for my d858hk weight only 273 mb. I mean all Rom a downloaded till now weight more than 1 gb

*** Here is the fix for Wifi for CM 12 that I found in the forums ***

*** This is a fix for changing the wifi Mac address 2 the correct one ***

I can confirm this rim changes your MAC, and we all have the same wifi MAC.

In order to fix it persistent through reboot.

1. Use a root explorer app with root permissions.

2. Navigate to system\etc\wifi

3. Open bmcmhd.cal with a text editor.

4. Change the mac address listed and save

5. Profit

**********************************************************************

*** Now about Carbon Rom ***

No, It's not true. I was able to install and use Xposed on Carbon Rom.

Let me know if you need help I will guide you how to install it.

I didn't try CM12 but I did install Carbon Rom and liked it a lot.

I am attaching a screenshot for you, give it a shot and see if you like it.

Maybe your heating issue will be resolved, Make sure you calibrate

your battery after your install Carbon Rom.

Yes it is true you will have to do a full wipe so make sure you backup

everything before you proceed!!
[G3 General] waqasr:
I think you are talking about Carbon Rom right?

Carbon Rom is based on CM and if you check CM for most

devices the size is between 250MB - 300MB so don't worry about it.

Even my previous phone which was HTC one M7, The original Rom was 1.2GB

but all the custom roms based on CM were more or less between 250MB - 500MB

depending on whats included!!

Another reason why the Rom size is so small because GApps are not included

so after you flash Carbon Rom please also flash GApps.

You can download GApps from the following link:

https://opengapps.github.io/opengapps/

Choose: Plateform -> ARM, Android -> 5.1, Variant -> Pico (This only contains play store so u can download

whatever u like minus the junk)

Go ahead and give it a shot, you wont regret it!!
[G3 General] eddyhiggins:
Wao Man you are really inside this ... My respect if all for you.

Well I think I'm gonna take the carbon Rom. Another question I use always the quick remote. LG backup. Knock code too. But in the list I don't see any of them.
[G3 General] S.Reza:
Downloaded Lg Flash Tool 2014, Marshmallow 6.0 V30a and Lg drivers for my D858HK... But i searched google and saw there is Marshmallow 6.0 V30b available.... Confused which one to install, currently on 4.4.2.. Please help....
[G3 General] waqasr:
Brother I am not sure since I have never used LG Quick Remote or the knock Code.

Maybe you can backup Quick Remote via Titanium Backup and try to restore it

in Carbon Rom but there is a chance it won't work in Carbon Rom but you can

give it a shot. Knock Code is only specific to LG's own favor of the Rom so maybe

you can find something similar on play store!

Under Hong Kong region I only see V30A so I would recommend you stick to it!!
[G3 General] sameh86:
hi guys i'm having a problem my phone sometimes it charges like forever (sometimes 5-6 hours) what could be the problem???? i'm on v30a and reset the phone recently and still have this problem can anyone help me????
[G3 General] waqasr:
I tried Rooted 6.0 Zip and reverted back to KK in less than half an hour.

I think it's plagued with problems. I kept losing my signals, that's when I

decided I wanted to revert back.

I had charging issue once, I think there was power surge when my phone

was being charged, My phone was under warranty at that time so I changed

my charger the issue remained, I changed my battery the issue remained, and

then I changed the USB cable of my charger which resolved the issue.

You will have try all the above one by one to troubleshoot and hopefully

resolve your issue as well.

Start with:

1. First try to replace the charger's USB cable.

2. Try another charger altogether.

3. if you phone is rooted, try battery calibration tool and see if that helps.

4. If all the above fails, Try to revert back to KK or Lollipop and see if that resolves your issue.

For now try the above and then lets determine what to test next!!
[G3 General] sameh86:
thank you but i used to have normal charging time after marshmallowing the phone about a month ago and it (the phone) started to do so about a week-10 days ago and if i'm having wifi open while charging it can take 4-5 hours to fully charge and my phone is operating for just less that 3 months so probably the problem of the charger is not existent and i can't bring official accessories so what should i do???
[G3 General] waqasr:
I told you I had the same issue I had not upgraded or tried any Rom at that time.

I was on KitKat and all of a sudden phone kept charging for hours and hours but

the counter remained at 69%. I tried the steps I mentioned to you in my previous

post and my issue got resolved. If you are not willing to troubleshoot or try the

steps I asked you to try then maybe some other member can help you!

All the best!!!

Gapps version???

One more thing to ask before i flash my LG G3 D858HK. Which version of Gapps should i flash on my phone as i am upgrading to MM. i searched Open Gapps and found many versions there. It has different platforms like ARM, ARM64 etc and varients like Aroma, Stock, Full, Mini, Pico etc.

Please help which Gapps version will suit with Marshmallow 6.0 V30a on LG G3 D858HK dual sim???
[G3 General] Abdul Wahab Abrar:
I too need it
[G3 General] waqasr:
You don't need GApps for any of the official LG versions, GApps are already included.

You only need GApps if you flash a custom Rom like CM or Carbon Rom!!

Let me also guide you about GApps just in case if you feel like trying a custom Rom.

Choose: Platform -> ARM, Android -> 5.1, Variant -> Pico (This only contains play store only so u can download

whatever u like minus the junk)

PICO is minimum packaged and Aroma has everything(it lets you choose when you flash it).

Android: if its KK go for 4.0, L go for 50/5.1, MM go for 60.
[G3 General] S.Reza:
Marshmallow 6.0 (V30a)??

Thanks for help,

I downloaded Marshmallow 6.0(V30a).KDZ from LG website and LG Flashtool with LGunitedmobile drivers. All these were guided on xda developers.

Now given the info, can you please confirm me that this is Official LG version??? If it is official i will not need Gapps or anything else like Root tool etc...

I never updated any phone before manually. That's why getting confused at small steps:)

Please help
[G3 General] waqasr:
Yes, GApps are included in V30A which is an official LG release so don't worry.

You can try and use the LG Flash Tool as well but some people reported having

issues installing MM V30A via LG Flash Tool so it's recommended you try LGUP

tool to flash V30A onto your phone.

[G3 General] S.Reza:
The best and stable version for D858HK is Marshmallow 6.0 V30a. Use LgUp tool to flash the device and the rest of the procedure will be done easily. I didn't use any Root tool for this updatation.... Try it
[G3 General] eddyhiggins:
Hey bro wait for another version of MM the current one the v30a is very buggy. The battery is the worst I've seen in years . only 2.5 hours. I will keep draining the battery even in safe mode and even with the display off.

The overheating is fatal.

I decided to go back to stock lollipop.

And everything goes right.

I like MM and I didn't want to go back. But to be charging the phone 5 times a day it's really annoying bro.

Now I have been back to my 4?hours screen. And my phone doesn't keep draining while the screen is off.

So just like me. Wait for another version of MM but don't make the same mistake as me. Going for the v30a
[G3 General] mhroozbeh:
is it the latest version so I just use update function in the setting or its a special version which is not the latest?
[G3 General] waqasr:
Unfortunately you are on the best version of Android for our phone which is 4.4.2.

I have tried them all even V30A (MM) which had a lot bugs/issues for me so I reverted

back to KK.

KK/4.4.2 gives me the best battery time, everything works but its not super smooth.

[G3 General] rk2612:
For me, MM works the best in terms of speed, smoothness and battery life. I spent 6 months on KitKat, then 6 months on Lollipop and now have been on Marshmallow for the last month or so. Undoubtedly, MM is better for me. Not sure why some of the others have poor battery performance on MM. In my experience, that's often the case when you've tweaked some ROM / App setting which causes conflicts and causes some apps to drain battery by preventing the mobile from going into deep sleep. There are several apps available for finding out the apps which are causing frequent wake up of devices and / or preventing it from going to deep sleep. Once you've found those out, then you can change the settings or deleted such battery draining apps. And, of course, you could also use Greenify to hibernate apps that you do not want running in the background and conserve battery.

---------- Post added at 06:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 AM ----------

Doubt if you can install custom recovery if you're stuck at the boot logo. Think you'll need to flash to stock first in which case you will lose all data and also the files on internal SD card.
[G3 General] waqasr:
---------- Post added at 03:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 AM ----------

I get better battery time with out Greenify, I have played around with it on multiple phones

and decided to do away with it long time back. When I installed MM I didn't tweak anything.

I was having just too many issues, battery drain or bad battery time was not one of them.

I am very happy with KK, I have tried Lollipop on multiple phones and tablets and switched

back to KK on all the devices I own. "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" I absolutely see no benefit

of upgrading to Lollipop and MM at this point!!

I will probably wait for the next version of MM for our phone and see if all the bugs are fix

or not.
