[LG X cam Guides, News, & Discussion] IngJulian_RVLX:
Welcome People!!!

In this Guide I show how to flash a KDZ to the LG X Cam using LGUP

Normally, somebody can put their device in Download Mode (LAF) and flash it with LG Bridge, but it will search the Carrier KDZ with the IMEI of the device.

So, LG Firmware has a lot of different KDZs for different carriers and brands, so in this Guide I will show you how to flash an Open (LG Stock) Software to this device and get rid of the bloatware.

What you need (Links after the Thanks Section):

LG X Cam (K580x) [

Obviously

] {Hopefully can work with another device}

LGUP Store Frame (Recommended the 1.14.03)

LGUP_Common.dll (Very necessarily to LGUP to recognize your device)

The .KDZ of your choice

At lease 1 USB 2.0 Port (Work more stable than USB 3.x for flashing in nearly all devices right now)

Let's Begin!!!

-Download your .KDZ (Recommended an open one, they are more light to download and are more clean), in Latin American Countries, the Colombian Firmware it's the most cleanest one in this moment.

-Download and Install the LGUP Store Frame with the Common LG DLL, as well your Drivers.

-Put the LGUP_Common.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\common (Create the "common" folder in "model", inside the LGUP Folder"), just like this:

On your device, put your device in LAF/Download Mode (Only the Volume Up button pressed while connecting the USB cable until the Firmware Upgrade Screen it´s Displayed)

Then, if you have the USB drivers already installed, open LGUP (your device will be recognized right if you had done everything above):

Select you KDZ (Notice that I have the Original Telefonica Firmware above and the Open Colombian Firmware under)

[Process in Refurbish its recommended, but its up to you to select Upgrade]

Latter, Select Start, and the Phone Will Start Flashing

(It's possible that the Phone when finish the Flashing, it can invoke the Recovery and Delete all data, results vary [In my case, it wont delete the first time, but the second time it Format Itself])

Finishing...

It Boot to Life!!!

As a proof of having the Open Software... (Internal Space it's more free and less Apps to deal with)
