Users wanting GApps permanently with a stock firmware, please follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/guide-d857-to-d858hk-g3-dual-sim-google-t2906602
Hello everyone,
I just installed GApps on my D857 after rooting it and installing a custom recovery.
But now I am constantly getting a Google Play Services error, sometimes .acore as well. Tried to remove the account, clearing the cache, clearing google apps data, but I'm still getting the error messages.
Any ideas?? Does anybody know if I can flash D858HK firmware in my D857 and if it contains the google apps??
BTW, I installed the FULL modular package from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
Thanks.
Solved. Install and root with StumpRoot, the install immediately SuperSu, set it up, and install it in /system (under its settings).
Install this recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/lg-g3-f400-recovery-6-0-4-9-t2825865
WARNING: you can use it only once! When rebooting it will ask you to protect and mantain the custom recovery, answer NO, otherwise your original recovery will be deleted and the custom recovery won't be bootable anymore since it's not for the D857! If you want to use it, you have to install it again. Don't keep the recovery, but keep the root!
In the custom recovery install the CM11 GApps:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
All other GApps won't work properly.
Tested with D857 v10b original firmware.
WARNING: DO NOT UPGRADE TO v10c, you will loose root, and so far it's impossible to obtain with any tool out there!
To go back to stock simply use LGMobile Support Tool, starting from firmware v10b it will download and install the kdz for you (v10a was NOT available).
I followed your directions and got it to work so thanks!
However, StumpRoot doesn't work on D857 v10b firmware, so I had to flash back to v10a stock first, then root and was able to get Google Services working.
But now the LG OTA firmware updates are not working because it detects a rooted device. Do you know how to get OTA updates to install? If I flash the v10b ROM to unroot I'm sure OTA update will work but then lose root and lose Google Services. Any ideas?
Dude as I said earlier, I did that procedure on the 10b firmware, so if Stumproot works on mine should work on yours as well!
Please note that before doing all that I updated the phone with the LG tool and did a factory reset.
Cheers.
BTW: does anybody know if the D858HK firmware contains the GApps? Apparently the firmwares are switchable!
[Q] D857 and GApps - Root and Custom Rec - SOLVED
Hi! I order D857 in Australia.
they assured me that he had the 800mhz frequency ... can you confirm? And do you know what's difference between D857 and D858? thank you
Maybe has something to do with the update. I updated from v10a to v10b and the Stumproot failed multiple times. Also found on various Chinese forums that Stumproot doesn't work on v10a. It sounds like you flashed a full TOT or KDZ v10b firmware and the root worked. I couldn't get it to work on the OTA v10b update.
So I guess you don't know if OTA updates work because v10b is the latest firmware?
D858HK does contain GApps (confirmed by Chinese forums) and I would also prefer to use this firmware. There are several Chinese forums where you can find D858HK and I tried several times to flash it using TOT method but it just wouldn't work. If you can find the KDZ of D858HK to flash with LGTools that might be possible but haven't found it yet.

not for now I do not know anything because I still have not received the phone. I ordered it on an Australian site that makes it even come from HongKong. Here is the link : http://cameraparadise.com/LG-G3-Dua...ed-+-1-Year-Door-to-Door-Warranty)-49222.html

D857 has these bands FDD-LTE(B1,B3,B7),TDD-LTE(B38,B39,B40,B41),WCDMA(B1,B2,B5,B8),TD-SCDMA(B34,B39),GSM(B2,B3,B5,B8)
GSM B5 is the 850MHz band
D857 is dual-SIM China International version (FDD-LTE/TD-LTE/WCDMA/TD-SCDMA/GSM)
D858 is dual-SIM China Mobile version (TD-LTE/TD-SCDMA/GSM) so it should only work on China Mobile's 4G/3G network
you want the D857. Also note that all these dual-SIM versions have one 2G SIM slot and one 4G/3G/2G SIM slot. You cannot have two 3G/4G running on the phone at the same time.

If you use LG support tools, simply choose fix firmware install or something like that, it will simply download and flash a full kdz of v10b on the phone. Do a factory reset after that.
I don't want to flash a TOT, I'm still looking for a full kdz of the 858HK! I'll let you know if I find it!

My questions is: if you flash v10b, root and install GApps, thereafter will OTA firmware updates work? Because right now, the firmware updates detect a rooted device and fail to update. It seems like that for D857 the only way to update the firmware is to download the KDZ and flash it every time a new one is released.
So getting the D858HK is really key, because if it can be flashed on D857 it already has Google Services, and OTA updates work for future updates...
Sorry but what's the kdz?

You're right: OTA won't work when rooted. It's actually a pain reinstalling the firmware every time, but at least you get a clean install...
That's why I'm looking like crazy for the 858HK kdz, unfortunately I don't speak Chinese and those forums are quite messy!
Do you know if the 858HK firmware is customized in any way by China Mobile??

By the way, the 858 gets way more updates than the 857, another reason to find that bloody kdz!!
v10c is out for 857:

I read in some Chinese forums that the D857 and D858HK firmwares are interchangeable but again I wasn't able to flash the D858HK. I tried with TOT and it just failed. So it is possible that D858HK is different from D857 firmware. I think there may be some modification need to make to the firmware for it to install on D857.
I too am still looking for a D858HK that works on D857...

Just updated with LG Support Tool. Unfortunately Stump doesn't work, IOroot doesn't work, nor does PurpleDrake.
I'm sick of this.
Do not update 'till I find a good working method!
Do you see my link above ? Do you think it's possible for the 800mhz ?
I'm also trying to figure out how to install D858HK stock rom on my D857 32GB.
Found on chinese forums, it seems that it's necessary to change the model number in build.prop to match D858HK model to be able to install it. Have anyone tried that?
Does anyone know where to get the D858HK firmware?

Rooted with STUMP initially just fine. Then had to factory reset due to a malfunctioning app.
Stump does not (yet) support re-root after reset unless you flash back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906
Thanks for all the helpful posts in several threads. I Rooted using IOROOT, using ADB no problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2776198
Now running BUMP TRWP recovery too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...pment/bump-unlock-lg-g3-twrp-verizon-t2900590

My phone does NOT work so I'm not sure why the change log states 12B.
What was upgraded, fixed, etc from 10B to 12B? Not really a fan of downgrading.

I don't think you can, but, if you download the kdz from a trusted place, you are actually back to stock without "china apps".
You can download the kdz here: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/
but be sure to flash the good one

Hello
So after foolishly updating to Marshmellow and discovering that all my apps no longer update in the background, i flashed my device to the LG G4 V10D-226-01 software version, the 10D Europe Open from the LG g4 "Go back to stock rom" thread.
Problem is, everytime i open my phone i get "Warning: Current version is not available for user. Cant find matched cust for Nt-code mcc/mnc[22601],subset[ff]. I have looked both on google and here and everything i found was for the G3 model and it involved using a "custom restore" image. but no explanation on how to use it, its not a KDZ so i cant flash it.
I'm pretty new to all this and everything i wanted was to go back to my Lollipop variant after seeing how Marshmellow behaved on my phone. (not auto updating my background apps).
I appreciate any help you guys provide.
Thanks
u cant downgrade once u go to Marshmallow. Its a security thing tht was updated in the latest firmware b4 Marshmallow came out. Ur gona hav to start all over again wth the latest KDZ b4 Marshmallow
I reformated into a Lollipop KDZ by flashing my ROM from the "Go back to stock" thread. Problem has appeared after i did that. I am currently on Lolipop v10D
nobody has any idea on how i can solve this issue?

download the kdz file for your device from here and flash it using LG UP here. all will be fine. i downgraded from MM to LP after MM had big battery drain. many people have downgraded using this method.

Hi.
I purchased a second hand LG G3 quite a few months back, only to find out after trying to update that my version was the D858HK, which does not seem to have any official way to update past KitKat on the phone. After some digging around, I did find some methods, like flashing the KDz file. However, none of the KDz files I've found on the internet seem to match the model of my phone, which is D858HK10d, or v10d.
I was wondering if there is any other way to get rid of KitKat and move on to the newer versions.
It is rooted.
Thanks in advance, XDA Forums. You guy's do the Android God's work.

LG PC Suite doesn't recognize the phone. And the kdz files there dont include the model of my phone, which is a D858HK10d.
Where are you getting the model #? The 10d part may refer to the ROM as 20x would be LP, and 30x would be MM.

10d is the Software Version of Android KitKat..
Your device is D858HK.
So you can proceed installing that kdz file.
