edit: ok this is not right driver, for that LG KS20 USB modem driver is needed
Are these now the drivers to flash the LG KS20 and can i make a backup of my old rom?

As far as I know there is no KS20 usb driver at this time, but it is only matter of time when somebody get one (I hope)
So answer to your second question is no - unless somebody found this drivers.
As you can see this is very different way to reflash devices from htc solutions.. We must be patient.
well, let's then hope someone founds these drivers. I've searched the internet, but no luck......I've looked in the service manual which is really great with so much infos about the KS20 and there it is written that you definetaly need the KS20 USB Driver and not the normal LG USB Driver.
Hello,
has someone found the required lg usb driver for flashing the ks20?
And what about the advantages of a newer rom?
My device has a rom version 10b. The rom posted in another forum is version 10e. What are your rom versions? I'm especially interested in a bug fix for the directdraw problems for which the most nice applications do not work. (PointUI and so on). It would be interesting to know if there's someone who has a newer device where this problem would be fixed??
+1 on the directdraw bug.
Another question is wheather the flashed device will be branded or not.I suppose it really depends on the rom one uses to flash it.In Greece there is atm only a Vodafone branded device available and I would love to unbrand it using a rom from LG Greece.
ks20 driver
hi,
someone has found the correct driver? i really want to flash it with a lite rom
Maybe it is bossible to make some physikal adapter to connect it to COM-Port?Or use the Bluetooth COM-Port?
where to look for the ks20 usb modem drivers?
Hey guys I think the consensus is that all we still need is the usb modem drivers, where would we find them? From an LG service centre? Who do we all have to sleep with ?
I will have another read of the service manual but whoever found that surely would have the contact for the usb drivers?

LG service centre have NOT this Flash Driver too !
WBR !
This is so ridiculous
This 10B ROM version has so many bugs and LG is not possible to deliver a fresh new rom with the tools/drivers so we can update our device.
My ROM version is from Oct-07
I have rom v09d dated 2008-01-09 with 5.2.1626 (build 18132.0.4.6) but I think all the roms are the same, no matter on rom version..
i don't think all roms are same. Depending on the localisation. You have 09D from czech i believe. Germans have 10B, but there is 10E version out for german devices.

sorry you had problems
the error is one of the drivers lg
you should plug it into one of the main USB ports on your PC.
or rather entering device manager and re-assign drivers to ports.
Have you downloaded the lgup for lg g3 and g2?
Drivers are installed, USB debugging is enabled, LG PC Suite OK.not sure what else there is missing.
Download : lgup-g2-g3.zip
Solve it FIX
good after I found the problem LGUP
roms apparently change the model of the device as it changes cm11 to build Cyanogenmod 11 xx
AOSP - to AOSP rom 2 etc.
the solution would be to install a stock rom clean no matter if v10 v30 etc. The important thing is not having changed the model number and manufacturer.
I hope I have helped and sorry
that includes cloudy fa's roms

Hi !
How do I do all the above ?
My PC recognize the phone without problem, but LGUp won't start unless I "select a known model"... (LGUp window shows : Model = Unknown ; COM Ports = [COM5, CloudyG3] )
Problem is that my phone is softbricked after installing a new ROM, and I can only enter download mode (not even recovery). I just want to downgrade it and reflash a LG's stock ROM (or whatever ROM that would make my phone actually work !!! )
Can you help me do that ?

LGUP "UNKNOWN" and FlashTool failure with LG G3 (and possibly others)
When I downloaded and installed LGUP with the DLL installer stated to be for the LG G3, the program did not recognise the phone, reporting it as "UNKNOWN". The LG FlashTool also failed, reporting the IMEI and PID as NULL. After spending a lot of time on this, I twigged that the DLL file in the LGUP model directory was for the 8994 processor; but the G3 has an 8974, quite different and incompatible. I located the DLL installer MSI file for 9874 devices, uninstalled LGUP and the DLLs from Windows add/remove programs, ran the 9874 DLL installer and reinstalled the LGUP program, and everything worked.
The file is, amongst other places, on https://uptoandroid.com/download-lg-up-tool-for-lg-smartphone-latest/. Do not download DLL files for LG G4, LG V10, LG G3, LG Stylo, filename LGUP_Common_DLL_Ver_1_0_28_5 .msi, but instead For LG phones based on Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 SoC, filename LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5.msi:.

23 Aug 19: I find that I've rediscovered the wheel. Exactly what I said was posted in 2016 - if I'd found it, it would have saved me a lot of time!
Hi,
Have a strange situation with my device LG G3 D855 32G.
The device keeps on loosing connection to the sim card. In the hidden menu, when I run a basic test I see "Usim - Pass" and then switched to "Fail" back and forth.
I don't get a message that there is no sim card.
This started couple of days ago, my device crashed during Android version update and was bricked (with no download mode).
I followed this thread below after downloading LGD855AT-V10e-EUR-32G.zip (tot file).
[GUIDE][FIX][DISCUSSION] LG G3 Hard Brick Recovery.
I managed to get a download mode only after restoring also Cache, System, Userdata.
Then I used LGUP to install D85530B_Global.kdz (Marshmallow).
Anyway, now the device is installed and working but there is the sim card issue.
During the unbrick process I noticed that the Main Board is D850 while the sticker is D855 (I purchased it from an Amazon seller as new).
Also, the retail box of the device show IMEI and S/N which in a look at the internet doesn't fit but the android menu show me the IMEI on the box.
Does it mean it is refurbished?
Can it be possible to install D850 and Forge the IMEI so it will look like D855?
Can it be that the device is looked after the update and there is a SIM verification issue?
In my differential diagnosis:
1. One of the partitions didn't write well when using the BoardDiag_v2.99a tool and then LGUP.
2. SIM socket issue. which not correlate to the fact that the device is new and SIM appears and disappears constantly, even with out moving the device.
3. There is a conflict of board and android version which cause a sim verification issue.
Your input will be welcome (Technical terms are welcome)
Thank you all in advance.
Insert a 4-ply paper with SIM, for me works!
You have a faulty modem installed on your device which is giving you problems.
Try flashing Modem 21C, everything works perfectly with it for me.
Use lg g3 test point on board and force it to go in qhsusb 9008 mode.
Then use smart boot diag v1.3 and its AP_CHIP folder and select d850 model in that app and select yes and yes and yes.
It will booting. Now flash last d850 rom for your country and remember to use flash tool 2014 and cse mode. And flash the rom twice.
It will be fixed.
Hello friends. I got the LG G3 D855 and it was dead. When flashing with LG Flash Tool, the same is 4% and gives connection error and asks me to remove the battery. Or else it reaches 15% and it's the same, I've tried everything. The S / W version is D85521A, Spain. Any solution?
hi, I have it working but not sure what made it work.
- get LG flash tool 2014
- flash file I used for Android Marshmellow D85530C_00_0211.kdz (more here http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda%2FLG+G3%2FStock%2FD855%2F
- when you have connected your phone change the com port in device manager to 41 (I had done that yesterday)
- install the LG USB driver
well I had really troubles getting it work but somehow today it did it
oh one more thing, leave internet on as you need to select country and language in flashtool, ones a new windows opens, let the first step finish, then pull your lan cable off or disable wifi whatever..
ps: bmatney posted 3 posts down this link, may help too https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
I have LG G4 and I flashed (upgraded) it through LGUP from 5.1 to 6.0 a couple of days back. This is what has happened.
Before Flashing:
Hardware - LG-H815T
Android - 5.1
Software - H81510p
Baseband - MPSS.BO.2.5.c3-00072-M8992FAAAANAZM-1
Kernel - 3.10.49
Build Number - LMY47D
IMEI - 357766060879504
After Flashing:
Hardware - LG-H818
Android - 6.0
Software - V20a-OPT2-HQ
Baseband - MPSS.BO.2.5.c3-00101-M8992FAAAANAZM-1
Kernel - 3.10.84
Build Number - MRA58K
IMEI - Same
This is what the problems are:
1. The phone turns on but the screen stays black all the time. There is one way to turn on the screen and that is by removing the battery and plugging it to the usb cable and when the screen blinks for the missing battery indication, holding down the power button and inserting the battery. This way the phone turns on as if it has no issues.
2. The internal storage is showing 22gb instead of 32gb.
3. I am unable to flash (upgrade or refurbish) the phone through LG Flash Tool 2014, LGUP and LG Bridge. All softwares partially work through the process and according to my analysis give an error at the point after establishing connection with the mobile when its the time to access the internal storage for writing system files on the phone's storage.
4. I am unable to conclude the model number of the phone because before flashing it was H815T, after flashing it is H818 and when I connect it to LG Bridge, it shows the connected phone as F500K.
5. I tried to unlock the bootloader of the phone by visiting the LG Developer site and when I came down to filling in the information of the phone like IMEI and Device ID derived from the instructions outlined, it does not accept H815 as the model number against the Device ID of my phone and secondly does not list H818 and F500K in the dropdown options.
I don't know what wrong have I done in my life to end up in a situation like this???
Hello there,
To solve this you need to edit a H815 tot file(if u dont have one download here https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24723757092307739) in a Hex editor(here a portable version of HxD wich i prefer http://mh-nexus.de/downloads/HxDde.zip, just download and run).
Open .tot in HxD, then you CTRL+F for "xVLG-H815" and replace H815 or whatever your tot have along with 'xVLG' to the model your phone is being recognized as(F500K in your case).
Almost done, just save and flash in LGUP using refurbish option
