Is it possible to restore manufacture's OS on my phone?

Hi
I have a LG E973. I installed Cyanogen Mod on it. Right now, it is giving me some problems. I would like to know if it is possible at all to install the Software OS that came with the phone which LG had it pre-installed when I bought the phone.?
I didn't do a back up when I put Cyanogen Mod on it because I didn't think I would need it. Is it still possible to revert to the OS version manufacturer originally put on your phone?
Please advise.
Thanks
Like I said on your other thread just install the KDZ for your country via LG PC Tools...

[Q] Downgrade from 23C to 10C?

I have a newly purchased verizon LG G3 that updated to 23C on its own. I have already rooted the device following a howto on lgg3 subreddit but in order to install Cyanogenmod the Cyanogenmod wiki says the phone needs to be 12B or lower. I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799647 which says I can restore the phone back to 10C (it doesnt say 10C in the gudie but the user who posted on reddit said it) but I need the LG G3 files and I do not know where to get them. Any advice/recommendations how to get this? Is it possible I can perform a full backup incase something goes wrong I can restore the phone (its rooted already)?

Help save a bricked lg g3

:crying:
My issues is quite complicated. Please be patient and read on.
Less than a week ago, I bought an LG G3 D855. It wasn't brand new and definitely out of warranty.
It was on the 4.4.2 Os version but I couldn't update it because I couldn't locate the UPDATE CENTER and after some research online, I found out it was because it was rooted. I couldn't find a Supersu application anywhere on the phone anyways but Root checker confirmed that it was rooted.
I downloaded the stock kitkat firmware in a .tot format and I tried flashing using LG Flash Tool for TOT but it failed because "Device version is different"
I checked the Imei online and it stated that the device is a Sprint LS990 but the details embedded in the phone all say it is D855
I checked online and found a couple of posts about this error and one user said he was able to fix it by flashing the actual Sprint .tot with the lg flash tool. I tried that but it didn't work. It still said "Device version is different. Check BIN or dll"
I checked online and found results pointing to a generic .dll file for G3s and I downloaded it but when I used it on the Flash tool, it resulted to an error "CrossDL blah blah"
So I found a Marshmallow kdz file. LGUP won't see my device model so I was able to flash it after editting the software in my build.prop to D85510n.
***I have always changed the port to COM41 in all the steps I used
The LG UP detected my model and it flashed to 100% but got stuck on a bootloop by loading the lg screen, freezing and restarting by it self. It never gets to the homescreen.
I downloaded lollipop kdz reflashed using LGUP in a form of downgrade and it got to 100% and got stuck at the lg screen while trying to reboot.
I redownloaded the stock kitkat rom and used the Lg flash tool but it failed. It said 'PID null IMEI Null"
I used LGUP to reflashed. It came to my understanding that the LGUP can flash both kdz and tot. So it flashed to 100% but got stuck at the lg screen and I have tried all I can but it is stuck. It can go into download tho. I don't know what to do about the IMEI. I don't know if the last flash retrieved it. I don't kniw what to do.
It no longer shows as LGE AndroidNet USB Serial
Please can anyone help me?
I just need my phone to work again. I was stubborn and now I regret it. I should have just stuck to kitkat. I'm so desperate to get my phone working that I wouldn't mind Android Froyo Os if it was ever possible.
PLEASE HELP!!!
I think you have to repair the IMEI...
maybe this can help

Sent from my LG-D855 using XDA Free mobile app
I think that he forgot to hard reset after flashing the kdz.
i completly know what you should do:
1: force your phone into qualcomm 9008 mod.
2: use board diag unbrick instruction and it will boot on download mod. for unbrick you will need best kitkat tot for your G3 model.
3: flash best lollipop or kitkat tot to make your phone alive
and then flash it with any kdz you want(it should be for your G3 model)

pls help me
Apparently, it seems my bricked phone keeps disconnecting during flashing process. I dont think it the fault of the cable because I have used different ones and they all seem to work fine with other phones. I have tried a different computer and still the same results. it connects as qualcom 9008 but once I try to start flashing, it disconnects and interrupts the flashing process. my phone just shows a grey screen now when I power it up with the battery in. also, I was trying to upgrade from linear os to the latest linear os. I cant fine the tot out there so im using zv6 currently. could this also be the problem? thanks in advance

LG G3 D852 downgrade from 6.0 to 5.0 Lollipop

I have been trying to root my LG G3 D852 on 6.0 mm, i have found that there is nothing out for that yet. I know know that have to downgrade and I have tried but since I'm on virgin mobile so the downgrade file I tried to use bricked my phone so i had to send it back to LG to get it fixed. Is there any other way to downgrade or root without bricking my phone again?
Thanks

Hmmm. I had the same problem as you did with my G3. Same model and everything. Tried to downgrade it using my computer. Can't remember what tool, but it said it completed successfully. When it went to reboot, it would stay on the LG logo for 15-30 seconds, before going to the broken android screen. After a few minutes, it would reboot. Could enter into the recovery menu from the broken android screen, but when I tried to bump the files or flash a rom, there was nowhere on the phone to store it. I think it removed the partitions during the flash, hence why it couldn't store the files. It's not that I didn't have permission, but it showed in the console that there was no directory to mount. Couldn't even charge the phone in the state it was in. Guess it relied on the OS to control the charging. I'll probably try to simulate the phone, with the stock OS, and see if I can find any exploits that could allow for a "safer" rooting method. Tell me if you find anything yourself!

Accidentally Flashed Rom for D855 on to model D852

Hey Community!
I am recently playing around with my Canadian Fido lg g3 phone and was planning to install lineage OS on it. I was strictly following these instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-how-to-install-lineag-os-t3558777 . Everything is fine until step 6. Lineage OS is not booting up and it is constantly restarts the phone. I then noticed that the model number on the back of my phone is LG-D852, so I believe I am flashing the wrong ROM.
I tried to revert back to the stock ROM but failed, I followed https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 as well this https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/solution-flashed-wrong-model-rom-to-d852-t2987242.
I tried flashing the generic dll file using LG FlashTool but that did not help, I am getting an error http://imgur.com/a/CQ5R2
Can you guys please help me out.
