It might be a good to start reading up about rooting your phone, look in the General forum for many usefull threads. XDA is not the place that is meant for spoonfeeding and roomservice If you have questions after that feel free to ask them but don`t expect others to solve your problem.

Firmware updates

Using an unbranded 32gb d855 in the UK. Got no ota update from eur 10a so flashed v10f. Now on v10f global.
Questions...
Modem appears to be the same, so don't kdl files include modem/radio's?
What is the best firmware to be on, EUR or global? Does it even matter?
How do I know if firmware is for web d855?
Man, do I need custom recovery, screwed the phone and had to start all over sigh!
Thanks

I'm not sure that everybody agrees with me but I think your original carrier stuff is in data/.OP which is not touched by a kdz flash and I believe that they are all the same.

you download the 10c update for you device (see kdz tread in general) and flash it with THIS
just a suggestion don'tt flash 10c but go with 10E if available for your device(same model number)

I am completely newbe here, could you please also give me the link to find a D855 10E file ?
My model suffix is A6FR (france?) does that mean there is no 10E ?
or should find another country 10E? I am ok taking anything that will work
and after 1.5 hours of digging helplessly would appreciate if you can help me finding the proper 10E (if there is one).
thanks much much !

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.

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?

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

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.

Yep, the bootloader unlock from LG is not available for every version of H815... Search the forum about root and bootloader unlock, probably someone with a non-EU version can help you.

You don't have any solution with MM firmware. But if you downgrade to LP, you can get root with the inject method.
You can downgrade with the app LGUP for MS Windows (search more information in this SubForum).
And you can get root with:

[LG-H81220U] I want to downgrade from MM to LP so that I can root my LG G4 (H81220U)

Hello, I want to downgrade my LG G4 (Software Version: H81220U) from Marshmallow to Lollipop so that I can root my phone. Could anybody guide me to achieve a downgrade AND a root? My carrier is Telus/Koodo in case it's relevant information.
Thank you in advance

first you need to nkow if tou can as in some models antirollback changes and makes it imposible to downgrade. so first make sure that antirollback versions they are if the same then you may if different then youll hard brick phone.
Hi @syphlect
Did you manage to downgrade it?
Have searched all the forums, did not find a way to root the LG G4 H1220u Koodo version.
let me know if you found any links
Use ...
Use ... LGUP - NEW ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803 ) to downgrade from MM to LP. You want H81210 for your Lollipop KDZ. Once you've done that, you can install a pre-rooted image (easier) or root your own extracted KDZ. Note: You will not be able to obtain root through any of the Root-Apps - check out the link in the next paragraph for the general how-to for the H812, if you have not already done so.
Refer to [Canadian Guide] - Complete Source for the LG G4 H812. Linux VM/Root/Tools&Files at: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/canadian-guide-complete-source-lg-g4-t3212449 for the how-to on rooting the H812.
Follow the Root ANY LG G4 Variant 100% Success Directives | Root Injection | Less Bricks (https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4-100-root-success-directives-root-t3180586) ONLY for installing the rooted image and use the command for the H812 model in the 2nd post here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...ot-lg-t3164765 found in the following box: Command to Flash System.img (All Variants):
Once done, because you still will have a locked bootloader, you will not be able to install a regular version of a custom recovery or flash a custom rom (that may come eventually when efidroid is managed to be ported to the locked LG4's). However, you will be able to install a non-regular version of a custom recovery with TWRP-in-FisH that has been tested on the H812 and is working just fine with Version 3 Beta 4 and 5 (you can find those links in the later posts in that site): [LOCKED][G4][TWRP][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP-in-FIsH for all locked G4 devices at https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/locked-twrpinfish-locked-g4-devices-t3573048

Yeah could not find specific to koodo Canada. Need to see if its safe to go with something similar to it.
Also I see my current software version is H81220Z. It got updated overnight even though I un-checked to install updates automatically.

Koodo is on the ... Telus network. You can use Telus KDZ's (doesn't specifically have to be H81210Z and they seem to be available (check the Canadian Guide) - others have indicated you can use other Canadian providers (read the Canadian guide). I can't confirm this personally.
Use LGUP-NEW for sure as you are less likely to brick from what I understand if an anti-rollback provision has been put in on the latest firmware upgrade.
