I want to flash a custom rom to my LS980.
I have the new ZVC update, and have TWRP due to flashing the ZV8 Bootimg.
Is it now possible because I did this to flash Roms compatable with ZV8 and up?
I have a .tot file, but would rather not have to go thru that again..

Hi,
My LS970 works fine with the stock ROM (4.0.4) but as soon as I install a custom ROM with Kitkat neither 3G, 4G or Wifi work. I have tried CM11, JellyBam and SlimBeans but all show the same behavior. Does anybody have this working or an idea what could be wrong?
Cheers!

If your on Stock 4.0.4 that should be ZV9 and that radio won't work for JB and any CM Rom's. You need to upgrade your radio.
There are a few options:
Let your phone upgrade to ZVC. It should be trying to do that already.
Or, if you are rooted and unlocked already and have TWRP, then you can flash the radio/modem. I would also recommend using a Stock based Rom to start.
The flashable radio/modems are here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40169203
The Stock Rom I would use is here. http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23212708291680187
So in recovery, flash the radio, then the ROM. It might not hurt to flash the radio a second time before you reboot.

I couldn't go back to stock and use the OTA because I have been told that using the OTA stock update will brick the phone if the bootloader is unlocked. So I have downloaded the file LS970ZVC-M9615A-CEFWMAZM-3.0.10646 from your link and flashed it.
WIFI works now. Thanks! But I still don't have 3G or LTE. Any ideas what else could be missing?
Thanks again! I was already ready to throw out the phone and get a Nexus 5.

Try flashing a stock rom, the one linked above. Then go to Settings>System Updates and update profile and prl. You can also go to Settings>Activate this device after those 2. This is the only way we can update those. CM/AOSP can't do that. That should get you going.

Sometimes I have to dirty flash "flash rom zip again over top of original flash" without wiping dalvik or anything to get signals to pick up and I'm current on Zvc , prl , ect. Never hurts anything and always seems to work if the traditional way doesn't, if you see this problem again might try.
Now i want to downgrade to zv7 or zv8 to get cyanogenmod. Is there any possible way were I dont need Lgflashtool and i can just go back to stock from twrp or ClockworkMod?
Download the ZVA radio and then flash cm in recovery.

I want to try out Grola rom but i really dont want to go through the process of having to .tot just to go from that rom to another. Is there a way to flash another rom without having to .tot back to factory.? I have the ls980 variant

Read the directions very carefully. If it is aosp or cm variant. You need to flash the zv8 radio after the ROM.
Primary thing, make a backup first. If you have newest TWRP, it will backup radio. So when you recover you can have no issues.
If it is stock based no problem. You only have to tot if you really needed something up or going back to zvd or zve radio.
Ok so i just boot into recovery, flash correct radio and flash the new rom i want. Unless its a zvd or zve stock based rom then i would have to .tot right.?
Right now I'm on resurrection remix. Which is cm based. So I have already downgraded boot loader by getting TWRP installed. I flashed zv8 radio for the ROM. If I wanted to go back to stock based because I didn't backup my radio. I would tot.
This way my radio is back to what it needs to be.
Or if I screw something up on flashing I can tot.
I am coming from a G2 where we had to flash a baseband then flash CloudyG2. I now have a G3 in hand that is stock and on 4.4.2 and the model is D851. I only have to root, install custom recovery, and flash CLoudyG3 2.2 and no other baseband/modem/zips? Is that correct?

CloudyG3 2.2 is Lollipop i think
So i would think that you would need to flash the lollipop baseband if you are currently on KitKat

Thats what I thought too, but there are vague references in the the main thread that say it contains the bootloader in the zip file for the rom.... I just wanted to make sure so I thought I would ask here.
I decided to live dangerously and just give it a go after backing up my current rom. Works just fine. No need to flash a baseband first as I believe the zip file includes it.
