Hey all. I am new to this scene and have been seeing lollipop builds for the D855 variant of our phones. would anyone know if there will be a lollipop build for the D852 Canadian variant of our phones? I am guessing it is unsafe to attempt to use the D855 build on the D852. Cheers.

I think so, i'm fairly new to the LG scene but hardware wise we're exactly the same as AT&T models aside from a locked bootloader so I can't see it taking very long for a port. Its been that way for every HTC/Samsung I've had here so I see this being no different.
I've tried flashing both the D855 and D850 builds onto my D852 with no success. After modifying the updater-script and build prop the best I got was getting to the LG splash screen then it would reboot into recovery. I'm really interested to know how to port this over. If there is a process to be learnt we could use it for all the builds coming out for the other variants. I hope a dev steps in to help us out!

Unfortunately it cant be flashed or ported due to the fact that the kernel signature has to match your exact device so it must be compiled for your device from source. I know @Ariesdroid is working to get some stuff going for your device, though I have no idea if it is CM12 or not.
Absolutely we will.
Awesome, thx for the info guys, looking forward to the update.
Thanks for the info guys, i can't wait to see some cm12 come out for our device

Our team is getting all the nexus/moto devices and others going first unfortunately....I am just the graphics guy on the team. They are trying to get Validus and Tesla Kitkat ROMs to boot for my d852 so i can at least use our ROMs on the g3 for now....but 5.0 versions will follow with time....
Some cm 12 would be nice as well to play around with....I heard a rumor that it might happen soon... :laugh::angel:

Will it be compatible with d852G?
Cm12 lg g3 d852
I flashed the Unoficial-CM12 one on mine last night, and so far so good, no problems yet. Everything is working fine. Let me know you want to know how I did so, and I can put together a list of how-to. Also, if you want I can report any problems or bugs.

Hey guys,
There are absolutely no posts on G3 AT&T android development, and I am an extremely impatient person. I grabbed the bump'd unlock the day of its release and I was wondering if it was possible to flash a D851 AOSP rom on the D850 :fingers-crossed: . What would happen? Would it run or are we talking about an immediate soft/hard brick? I figured both the D851 and D850 are super similar, having the same hardware and being GSM... however, the slight differences in radios and what not might be an issue. What do you guys think?

Please re-read the thread for Bump. In order for you to flash a ROM it will have to be Bump'd for your device. @thecubed and @Shelnutt2 (perhaps others) are currently working on finalizing the Bump process so that ROMs can be Bump'd. Just hang in there-these guys work fast, but they also work methodically to prevent issues.
thanks for the piece of mind. I figured the devs just didnt want to release a sloppy product. I cant wait for cyanogenmod for my att lg g3. Im knew here so id like to show my support with a pledge of $20 to a dev working on my model phone. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Just saw the leaked screenshots of Android L on the LG G3. Really dissapointed in the fact that you can barely tell the difference since the home screen, again, is filled with all the LG theming like Optimus UI. I was just wondering, is it possible to install Android on the device without all that? Like, near stock Android. Same goes for KitKat, is it possible?
When the bump tool is released probably. Until then depending what variant you are on no.

If your only issue is the homescreen try a different launcher
If you want a new rom, well every rom has an how to install in the op but close to stock roms are tethered so you will have to load the kernel via fatboot every time you reboot (for now) but that should also be covered in the op's of the roms
i have the lg g3 vs985 already rooted
my recovery is TWRP 2.8.0.0
i been running stock for a bit cause i couldn't find a rom that has these 2 apps, i have the first one that is the lgq remote, i like my modded camera stock app, and non of the roms i tried dont have what i want in the camera app,
dose anyone have the stock camera app to be flashed or something that matches it or better
please and thanks
i am planning to use CM12 on my phone
also one more thing, is there a modded kernel for the vs985 or is someone still working on one, thanks

If you want official, last one is KitKat - 4.4.2 r2. If you want unofficial, pretty much all development is dead so you'll have to go around development threads and find what you like. Last Android version this device (unofficially) received was 5.1.1.
This device is bit complicated for flashing, because there is no standard bootloader unlock. But, it's all really well described in the forums, just use that search button up there...

Is there 5.0.2 to my LG? Which recovery should I use?
I have this Lg Optimus G Pro just laying around and I want to update it from Kit Kat to Marshmallow or Nougat. The problem is I'm a newbie and have no complete idea to do this. So I want to use this phone to practice with. Can someone help with a tutorial or some links to custom ROMs, Recovery anything would be helpful. Thanks
Better first try building officially supported ROMs that already exist for this device (Kitkat or Lollipop ones) instead of trying to port it to newer android versions if you're a newbie. This device is helluva hard to maintain if you don't know what are you doing - Jellybean libs and firmware require lots of hacks and fixes to make it run on Nougat, there are issues with drivers and lack of proper maintenance/updates since CM11. Locked bootloader is just another thing to think about.
