[Q] Model of LG G3 - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear All
I am trying to determine the model number of my LG G3 so that I may install stock android on it.
I went into the Software Version and it says that my model is:
Model Number
LG-D855
Build Number
KVT49L.A1408602401
Can anyone tell me which stock rom i should download? I apologise if this question is stupid I am very new at this!

The clue is in the model number... D855...

I didn't mean the model number, but I meant the variant of the phone so that I may find a suitable stock android rom for it. I bought it in the UAE.

Where is my phone from?

Hi Guys
I am using software version V10g-SEA-XX
Its a 32GB with 3GB RAM which I have checked out.
I am in the UK and know its not an official UK version but was wondering where the phone was imported from originally.
I know its not Korean as it doesn't have an antenna.
Thank you in advance.

If it says 20a, that's a no go mate! You'll need to downgrade to KitKat first, then root, than you can have whatever you want.

If your model says D855, then the any EU firmwares should be OK, the Generic maybe? You won't find your 3 branded there.

number is v20f

Regardless which V20 - version you have now, just follow the guide and flash one with V10 (KitKat). If you don't see the 3 (three) version listed, go for the generic one (16GB or 32GB - whichever you have).
Once you have flashed V10, you can root it and go on...
However, if you feel uncomfortable with the process, or have never did it, or don't know exactly what you're doing, I'd suggest to get help from someone locally, who has experience mate!
Ok i'll try it!!! Wich one I've to download? Can you post it here?
I have 16 GB can you link me the file I have to download

There is difference as one is release 10A an d the other is release 10L, but for your purposes, it is irrelevant.
As advised, Flash either KDZ by this method :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2785089
This is a good guide to Downgading - Rooting and Bumping, just Flash SuperSu:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133 and the Rom you are wanting instead of CM12. :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-downgrade-root-bump-t2997824

Any way to convert US Cellular G3 to anything else

Hi guys I have a practically new US Cellular g3 and would like to completely flash it to a different one or just unlock the radio and use it on Tmobile. Is there any way to do this as I have read somewhere this version has an unlocked bootloader. I dont ever plan on using the phone on US Cellular.

What is:
Your Android Version?
Your Model Number?
Software Version?
Model US990
Android 4.4.2
Baseband MPSS.DI.4.0.c2.1-00007-M8974AAAAANAZM-1
Kernel Version 3.4.0
Build KVT49L.US99010c
Software Version US9010c
I see that there is some sprint way to unlock it to Tmobile merely by changing the build.prop
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55373282&postcount=66
Do you think this would work. I really like this phone and would really like to have this functioning on my service provider. It just says Invalid Card when I put an ATT or Tmobile sim in.

It might be easier to just take it into the store and tell them you purchased it and wish to use it on your current plan. They should be able to do it for you.

815 are "international" version. Yours specifically I could not say. This is the spec sheet from PDADB for that model, but according to that it has a link to Telcel. Telcel is Mexico..

Thank you for the info, it's weird to think that it's Mexico as I am in South Africa. Will have to see once we have root etc what I will need to do and use but thanks for the info. Been weird as my G2 was the D802 international variant. But now I can't find much about the 815P model.

LG-815P is for LATAM, South Africa versions, check it out here: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g4-6901.php
What parts are you looking for 815P, at most of times, parts of different variants in the same model are interchangeable, except for frame, housing and loudspeaker assembly.

Hi xymay,
I've also got a H815P (also from South Africa).
Do you know - Is it OK to use any H815 Rom on this phone?

I have the version for Mexico and no, you need a ROM for H815P.
The root system can be flashed over any 815 version.

Thank-you Pakitos.
I just want to ask to be sure that I understand you.
Are you saying 2 things.
One is that I must find a ROM for H815P.
The other is that I can use any H815's system inage on my phone.
Thanks,
Hotfingers

Yes there are 2 different things.
1) For the H815P you MUST flash a H815P ROM in order to not brick it. If you flash a H815N, H815TR, etc... your phone will be in an infinite boot loop best case scenario. Not really sure what happens if you flash a different ROM. It may not even boot.
2) When you root, you need to flash a system image that has root injected. Basically a hacked official ROM with the root installed on it. This system image works for every H815 version, so you dont have to worry about which variant you are on as long as it says H815 and matches your current ROM version.
Hope I made myself clear. If not, feel free to ask :fingers-crossed:
I thought 815p was pacific or puerto rico

This is the wrong section, but you need to do *#06# to get your IMEI, and enter that number to the end of this link: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=
It'll tell you which is the latest firmware for your phone.

Yes that is lollipop. It depends on what carrier you're on, which appears to be O2, and it doesn't look like it's getting it yet.
