Hi all,
Today, I proudly present GomdoLight KitKat for KOREAN LG G / G2 / G3 / G3A / G3cat6 / Gflex / GK / Gpro / Gpro2 / LTE3 / Vu2 / Vu3 / Gpad7LTE, one of the most widely used (with 20,000+ users approximately) stock-based custom firmware in South Korea.
GomdoLight is more than 3 year old already (first version released on 19th December 2012), and is very mature.
Technically speaking GomdoLight is NOT a complete ROM, but rather a large-scale patch, which modifies official stock firmware to remove all the unnecessary components preloaded by operator/manufacturer, and reorganizes key system parts to 'basic' Android OS with manufacturer's flavor. For some devices GomdoLight's own specialized tool 'GomdoLight Sideloader' can make it possible to install GomdoLight directly over the stock firmware, even without rooting or flashing custom recovery!
GomdoLight is compatible with the following devices (BOLD indicates GomdoLight Sideloader support - no root required)
LG Optimus G: LG-F180S, LG-F180K, LG-F180L ("G")
LG G2: LG-F320S, LG-F320K, LG-F320L ("G2")
LG G3: LG-F400S, LG-F400K, LG-F400L ("G3")
LG G3A: LG-F410S ("G3A")
LG G3 Cat.6: LG-F460S, LG-F460K, LG-F460L ("G3")
LG G Flex: LG-F340S, LG-F340K, LG-F340L ("Gflex")
LG GK: LG-F220K ("GK")
LG G Pro: LG-F240S, LG-F240K, LG-F240L ("Gpro")
LG G Pro 2: LG-F350S, LG-F350K, LG-F350L ("Gpro2")
LG Gx: LG-F310L, LG-F310LR ("Gx")
LG Optimus LTE3: LG-F260S ("LTE3")
LG Optimus Vu2: LG-F200S, LG-F200K, LG-F200L ("Vu2")
LG Vu 3: LG-F300S, LG-F300K, LG-F300L ("Vu3")
LG G Pad 7.0 LTE: LG-V410 ("Gpad7LTE")
A very thorough and extensive (probably, the most extensive on entire xda) manual is provided at the download page, which contains literally everything you need to know to install GomdoLight. FAILURE TO READ THIS DOCUMENT BEFORE INSTALLING WILL ALWAYS LEAD TO VARIOUS UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. Needless to say, I WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ALREADY ADDRESSED IN THIS DOCUMENT.
Due to xda forum's limits (in functionality) I am posting a link to the separate (external) DOWNLOAD PAGE. There is no way I can link to each section in the document in xda posts, since xda does not support HTML tag. However some portions of the document are also introduced here.

i have all lollipop firmwares already, but lollipop support is not planned yet. however, if lge shows more dev-friendly attitude in the future, i will definitely support lollipop. however it will NOT be soon.
For the Jellybean version, a nandroid was provided in the OP for non-Korean model G Pro users to restore in recovery before flashing GomdoLight. It was a modified version of the Korean stock firmware. Any chance a modified stock Kitkat could be provided for us E98x users? If not, what kind of mods were made to make it compatible?

All compatibility problems with GomdoLight rise from a single factor: incompatible APKs.
GomdoLight JB had a lot of APKs to overwrite, and they were modded from Korean stock APKs. These were sometimes incompatible with foreign (non-Korean) stock firmware. Obviously, the more APKs in the rom, the higher chance to conflict.
However, KK version has only 2 APKs - SystemUI (status bar) and Camera. The rest are just shell scripts designed to work universally. And due to LGE's improvement on their development cycle most KK APKs has common code base across many variants.
So now,
1) There are less APKs included in the GomdoLight KK ROM (more dependency on already-well-working stock firmware)
2) LGE's improvements, with commonly shared code base helps 'foreign' firmware compatibility
3) Universally working shell scripts does not have compatability problems
→ these all, combined together, give GomdoLight better compatibility with non-Korean variants.
The only problem left is 'debloating'. Because GomdoLight KK does not know what files are bloatware in the non-Korean stock firmware, it cannot delete them. However you can always root the device with internal 'enable.root' GomdoLight Flag, and delete them yourself.
If your variant is PROVED INCOMPATIBLE with GomdoLight, then I will consider providing Nandroid of Korean stock firmware.
Sounds pretty easy. I'll take a swing at it. My guess is there will be less chance of conflicts if I delete those 2 APKs before installing GomdoLight, so I'll try it that way first. Thanks for the info.
EDIT: On second thought, I think I was misunderstanding where you were going with those 2 APKs; I was thinking you were saying they might be a problem, but you were really just saying that they're the only 2 APKs in the ROM (that's what I get for reading this before having my morning coffee.) I flashed the E980 KK TOT file, I'm going to make a nandroid of that to have something to fall back on in case anything goes wrong, and then I'm installing GomdoLight. I'll post a follow-up on how it works out.

It worked out great for my E980. I didn't have to do anything special, but I did do it the Custom Recovery Image way. Once in the Aroma installer, I chose the F240S model (not sure it matters.) I chose the components I wanted (I'm gonna guess to make sure you uninstall the TV feature, as we don't have the internal tuner that the F240 models have.) But otherwise, just follow the instructions... they really are some of the most detailed instructions you'll ever come across. Seriously, anyone asking questions about the install, isn't reading the instructions, and there's more than enough info already on the forums about installing recoveries in Kitkat. This is a nice buff to keeping it stock. Primo work, thank you!

Even if you leave the TV feature enabled, it will not install TV, and have no negative effect: what these options do is just to decide that 'to what apps should GomdoLight send the pm disable shell command'. If you leave the TV enabled GomdoLight will just think, 'oh I should not send the pm disable command for TV component'. Since you do not have the TV app in the first place, it will have no impact whatsoever.

They are stock-based ROMs that reinstalls the OS. This one is a large-scale patch that modifies the exiting stock firmware, and add some very unique features. It has a very extensive startup script set made my me, and the script set gives GomdoLight unparalleled flexibility and disaster recovery capabilities.
GomdoLight does not focus on hacks and tweaks, but rather on usability and stability.
Can be ported to other variants?

Hold on your horses, first of all this is not a ROM as stated and I guess you own the D803 variant once you're on Canada, I wouldn't try it once it plays around with the system partitions and those are quite different between Korean and worldwide variants. IDK much about these scripts for the KK stock but I definitely would not try it.
If they're just a bunch of scripts they could be Open Source for contribution, couldn't they? It would also be better for contribution and porting to other variants although I think we rarely have people here that use the pure stock KK once we have a lot of custom AOSP and good LG based L/KK ROMs.

1. partition layout is usually not important with gomdolight.
2. it is not just a bunch of scripts. as of now, the script set EXPECTS the full gomdolight system installed and it is specialized only for gomdolight. however anyone is welcome to port the script set to other devices.
gomdolight is developed to unleash the true potential of pure stock KK, and prove that stock KK can be indeed useful without system tweaks or such apps if aided by just some specialized scripts.

choose f180k. if status bar is proved compatible everything will be good.
gomdolight kitkat is more script-oriented, so not many apks are replaced from the stock firmware. so there is a quite high possibility that it will be compatible with many variants.
however, you may need to 'debloat' the stock firmware by yourself, since i do not know what bloatwares are preloaded in non-korean stock firmware.

@juniecho thanks for your contribution, i have F300K branding is Olleh, now it is in recovery mode i have downloaded 2 file f20l.kdz and f20f.kdz but all stop at 50% or 54% when flashing, does F300K need to be flashed by its own specific branding? do you have links to these F300K Olleh firmware? (to flash before going to Gomdolight)
i would like to try using this Gomdolight ROM

sorry for late reply. by f300k you mean vu3. in the manual http://gomdolight.com/?page_id=518 you can find the 'firmware compatibility table' at 4-2.1. when you look at the table you will find download links for 20F stock kdz, which is proven safe. f300k can be flashed via lg flash tool 2014 (without specific branding or utility, etc.), and since the kdz file i provide is not a CSE-type kdz, you can just flash it with 'normal flash' mode. (by contrast, CSE-type kdzs should be flashed with 'CSE flash' option, and if you choose 'CSE flash' mode it will force a factory reset upon flashing)
sumup: 1) download the kdz file from the firmware compatibility table in the manual, 2) flash it with 'lg flash tool 2014' with normal flash mode.
did that already but stops at 40 or 50% when flashing, downloading the kdz file with IDM is not a problem? but i think when preparing the kdz file if any error occur, the LG flashtool should have notice it right?

UPDATE - Wave 2, revision 9
UPDATE LEVEL: MAJOR / IMPORTANCE: CRITICAL
UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS:
Use the clear.root flag to unroot before upgrading if you're rooted (IMPORTANT)
You can always re-root using the enable.root flag (SEE http://gomdolight.flags.usage.gomdoli.us for details)
You do not need to revert to stock, but choose the 'FRESH INSTALLATION' option at the Installer's main menu even though you're actually upgrading. (You will go through the reconfiguration process)
CHANGELOG:
Greatly improved GomdoLight Engine scripts
Added support for a new flag: reboot.recovery - reboots into recovery environment (automatically into 2nd-init recovery if installed)
Added support for a new flag: auto.install.xposed.framework - automatically schedule installation of Xposed framework when the Xposed Installer app is installed but the Xposed Framework is not.
Improved stability and battery efficiency
Automatically restores GomdoLight Engine functionality when GomdoLight Engine can't be initialized
Removed IM+ from the Update Center
Added 'LG Tag+', and 'Privilege Terminal' to the Update Center
'Update Center' components updated
(G2, Gpro, Vu3, Gflex) Now the clock/date indicator shown when the status bar is expanded will NOT do anything if you click on it, instead of taking you to the Date/Time Settings screen.
(G2, Gpro2, G3, G3A, G3cat6, Gflex) Now you can choose between stock navbar thickness and reduced (by about 25%) navbar thickness
(Gpro2, G3, G3cat6, Gflex) Better DualWindow (SplitWindow) app support
(G3, G3A, G3cat6) Improved QuickRemote (Q Remote), now you can control some air conditioners and audio systems.

Droidkit OnePlus One Windows
Hey guys iTechy21 here and I am glad to announce I have a NEW project I'm working on to make an open source toolkit made from c# to allow easy development for other devices. This project will aim to support as many devices as possible with different toolkits for different devices therefore unifying the experience between them.
This will also be 100% open source when fully complete and is released under the GPLV3 licence (apart from the stuff I did not develop e.g. Custom Recoveries, root.zip, adb / fastboot and stock software all rights go to their respective owners).
Features
Support for any android version and Rom
Full Backup and Restore of apps + data (Nandroid is in the works...)
Unlock / Lock your bootloader (removed locking due to possible issues)
Flash a custom recovery (all supported including stock)
Shows attached device(s) in status bar
Advanced CMD mode for power users - type any ADB Command you want!(Will be reimplemented!)
Booting the device into and out of fastboot with a button click
Flash back to stock (Lollipop!) and keeps your bootloader unlocked
To come
Flash 100% stock DONE!
Save backups with custom names DONE!
Install APK's through ADB DONE!
Flash zip via recovery commands DONE!
Improve UI to make it look cleaner...
Backup the EFS Partition (will be coming Soon) DONE!
Log screen to help amateurs with adb learn (and also output errors to be more verbose) Abandoned due to too many issues
Ability to change colour theme from light to dark and the colours (coming Soon™)
Improve OTA system (continuous)
I am accepting requests if they are not too obscure to find out (even better if you find a way to do it as it cuts down on my research time which I don't have a lot of )
Legal
This is an unofficial toolkit made by an independent developer who has no association with oneplus apart from the fact that he owns a 64gb Sandstone black phone. I cannot be held responsible for anything that may happen to your phone! Even if it is just exploding, catching fire or just voiding the warranty.
Changelog
Material 0.0.1.5 ) - Major Milestone! - Untested Oxygen OS flashing. Do-so at your own risk! (Might not work not fully tested)
Improved theming
Updates to internal .dll's
Stability improvements
UI Tweaks
More verbosity via dialogue messages
System requirementsTo run this needs an x86 or x64 based system (Not supported on Windows RT)
And version 4.5 of the .NET framework (which is installed upon install if missing (needs testing!) and requires Windows 7 or Higher (sorry XP users )

I found a Bug!
Great and thanks for finding one! I can now hopefully track it down and fix it if you provide the following:
The Computer's OS
What you were doing
How you can reproduce this
Your device
The code from the message that appeared
This will help me track down and hopefully fix the error. And once open sourced these can be reported via GitHub!

I knew that would be an issue. That's due to the fact it includes all the stock files for CM11S. However I will make it possible by downloading it within the app unzipping it and then flashing the device. But I'm fairly novice at c# and I don't have a lot of time to develop at this moment in time...

Thank you I'll finally get noticed for something XD
... It works great but the size is a big deal.
Also, i suggest that ... you show what version of recovery you will flash - TWRP ( is generic and the filename does not gives you clue, the same for the others )
Also, for the Stock firmware ( wich version is it ?! )
SuperSU is not updated ... you could improve and use the last stable from chainfire
all the other things looks great so far.

Thanks for the feedback. I may improve that make to another form with information on the specific versions (along with a built in download tool). Along with updating the SuperSU.zip
The first thing I'll do is work on that once all the basic features are there. But generally its the latest version of TWRP that is stable along with the other recoveries...
As for the stock I think the one I included was 44s but it may be 5Q (ew). Ill be implementing a downloader for the stock images to download whatever the latest version is from cyanogen...

I'll see what I can do but the size will be reduced in the next update as it will remove the stock zip and replace it with a downloader which will download the stock images and then flash them reducing the size massively... (but I use Gdrive as its easy to find the download link unlike with Dev-host...)
I can´t flash twrp with this toolikt any one have a clue?
Do you have the adb drivers installed? Or is it throwing an error?

===============================================
READ READ READ!! WARNING OTHER MODEL PHONES READ READ READ!!
Only for D-802 - Model 805 - Model 806
Do not install under no circumstances in other phone. It contains partitions for version KITKAT D-802, D-805, D-806.

**************************************************
READ READ READ!! FOR MODELS D-802 D-805 D-0806 READ READ READ!!
** By installing this ROM you’ll have the official version of LG Kitkat bootloader “G”. This is necessary for operating the new lollipop’s kernel. The last step is an absolutely necessary and sooner or later you will have to do if you want to use versions Lollipop. Whether from a custom rom or official OTA.
** Changing means that all kernels to install form this time must be bumped, If you want to install a new one after going through this ROM.
** All installations required Kernels bumped Lollipop ROM. To install bumped Kernels never use recovery Philz. This recovery patch the kernel and recovery, making your phone useless after a reboot.
**************************************************
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
READ READ READ INSTALLATION FOR MODELS D-802 D-805 D-806 READ READ READ
First and before installing this rom change the recovery immediately. Always use TWRP recovery, is absolutely necessary for avoid installation problems. If you are using Philz you may lose the recovery and the boot.
Second, perform a complete backup of your current ROM in order to back at any time. As long as the kernel version to recover is bumped.
If you want to install a new ROM after installing this one remember also to install a KitKat modem and a bump kernel. If you don’t you won’t pass the LG logo.
If you want to operate a Kernel that use Loki you must downgrade the bootloader to Jellybeam for D-802, D-805 and D-806.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE ROM:
* The ROM is official based of PRO2 D-838-20H. It’s adapted to operate in our phone and our model. But everything else is Pro2.
* The ROM have a “Fix” for me in binary code, to avoid the loss of signal and adjust the band to Europe. This binary is activated from the kernel. If you use another kernel or remove the binary signal can have losses and FC Phone.
* In this version everything works.
IT INCLUDES:
- LG official version Pro2. 20H. Including icons based L.
- All LG programs, you know that I like STOCK ROM, including LG HEALTH.
- Dual Window.
- One hand operation.
- Hiding keys.
- Ten Themes.
- Adaway.
- Task Manager.
- Compass (Arde Dev Team).
- EasyHome.
- Added call control to see from the window in the Official cover LG.
- The camera records and works in all formats without changing the build.prop as D-838. Now your phone will always be D-802, D-805 and D-806 work all the extras included.
- Automatic detection of OTG, headphones or USB connection.
- More…
CHANGE LOG:
- Repaired all bugs of previous versions.
AROMA MODS SELECTABLE FROM NOW:
** Select models 802/5/6.

** You can select Clock in the center or left and battery 1%.
** NavBar from 39Dpi (Series) to 24Dpi.
** Choose between 3 sound modes, Series, medium and high. Repaired, the average middle and high sounds without distorting.
** And many other details
** More…
KERNEL:
The kernel is the same for all models of the G2 include the ROM. It unifies all in one kernel to avoid questions of different models on the same thread, so we can avoid confusion, not to mention that everyone can enjoy the advances regardless of your model.
* Source Code Official LG Lollipop for LG G2.
* Modified parameters to save battery.
* New governor Acura is included. With this governor is achieved a good performance with a good consumption. If you want it even more battery save, but less performance, change to OnDemand.
* The kernel does not include overclocking.
* Optimized use of the GPU to make it more effective speed changes.
* Selected idle speed 200Mhz GPU. 320Mhz stock.
* Fixed GPU simple ondemand governor.
* New options for Governor.

Great stuff! @
Nice, I'll test it tomorrow as it's too late to make a backup now.
I'll report back if I would find any issues. Thanks for sharing:good:
Edit: well I installed it and I could just upgrade from optimusg3 to it and thats nice without any real issues. The only thing that sucked was that the installer waa not in english. So I thought like okay, lets just press this. And I guess that that change made my widgets different :l so I have to reinstall the whole thing again to have it normal. When it comes to kernel you also have 3 choices but I will use google translate I guess for installing next time.
But further no bugs. Only thing that I miss is dorimanx[emoji14]
Instructions are a bit confusing, but i'm going to try it. Hopefully it works better than GRola
I installed the ROM and everything work just fine.But some of the themes have bugs after changed some icons become pixelated...But overall great rom..Need to test more if i found any bugs i will report.Gj developer..

[Custom Rom]
[K-Rom M8-V5] [Magisk](all regions) Huawei Mate 8 -
NXT- B592 - EMUI 5.01 - Android 7 -
Based on Huawei Firmware
B592 (China) and KankVip B592 V3
On TWRP backup basis.
Developed and tested on this device:
Huawei Mate 8 (NEXT)
Model number: Huawei NXT-L29
Build Number: NXT-L29C432B581
-OTA updated
without branding, with root and root access.
TWRP recovery
Mods:
- Call Recorder
- KangVip Advanced Settings
- Autostart administration in the
telephone manager
- Viper 4 Android FX 2.5
- Ad Block Plus
- Immersive Mode
(hide Navbar e. t. c.)
For topicality:
The Google Patch is from 2017-10-05 and the firmware is
Version B592 (Asia)
The deviating specifications in the device information,
have been taken over by the B581 and
guarantee the OTA eligibility for subsequent updates."
Please make a backup of your data with Huawei Backup and TWRP.
The Rom will be installed as if you were trying to restore a TWRP backup.
All your apps remain intact.
Prerequisites:
Firmware B581
TWRP Recovery (from download)
Root is not necessary.
OEM and FRP unlocked
USB Debugging on.
You are familiar with the matter? Then let's go!
Preparation/ Installation:
Download:
Please do not download the MEGA 2017-11-09-M8-K-Rom-V5.rar as "ZIP".
The backup is already compressed.
Unpack and the backup directory:
2017-11-09-M8-K-Rom-V5
to the TWRP Backup folder on the ExtSd.
Installation:
Uninstall these apps, if available:
SuperSu and Busybox.
Restore and reboot the backup in TWRP.
Please do not perform any wipes immediately before and after the event.
In the future, never do a factoryreset.
Depending on the configuration of your existing B581,
the following may still have to be done:
install ************* v5.3.0.apk,
flash in TWRP BusyBox-Magisk-1.25.zip,
flash in TWRP Magisk-permissive-script_v1.0.zip,
for the Kangvip advanced settings.
For Ad Block Plus first install the app and
then the zip's flash.
If the flashing fails, please add the modules in the Magisk Manager App.
Don't experiment with Xposed!
The SafetyNet is lost."
The Rom is partially debloated. Some Google and Huawei apps have been removed.
They can be installed by you if necessary.
That's what you can do with the HiApp.
In the Kangvip Advanced Settings do not use the Addblocker and
"hideNavbar". Both works only on China Roms.
I recommend to fully charge the battery after installation and carry out a calibration.
Since the rom runs with the stock kernel, you can only take a few options
in the k-advanced settings / tune cpu.
With the app in the attachment, you can check it out.
See also the screenshots.
....... and remember: A custom ROM is never as perfect as a stock Rom.
You have to teach him something in between.
Depending on the configuration of your devices, it can of course also be "stuck" somewhere.
I give full support for this, because there is a lot of support between rooted nougat devices and the EMUI
there's no real wedding.
Good luck!
Subsequent rooting with SuperSu is possible with the V5:
Restore the stock boot partition (kernel) from a TWRP backup.
SuperSU.EMUI5-K-Rom.zip flashing.
finished.
Threadupdate: 2017-11-17:
Increase battery life:
I have tested some settings on cpu performance.
By turning off individual cores, the others have to do the work.
It is difficult to predict whether this will cause permanent damage.
Lowering the frequency distributes the load evenly balanced.
The performance loss is only 6% and not noticeable
and the battery life is considerably longer.
You can easily see this on the graph in the appendix.
Test environment:
V. 5 with SuperSu Root
Ex kernel tuner app (beta).
My configuaration is: max power big cores= 1306 / little cores= 807 MHz.
You can create individual profiles and put a widget on the home screen.
I recommend a calibration with "Battery Calibration" from NéMa. It also optimizes the consumption of all available apps.

If available, uninstall these apps: SuperSu and Magisk.
A unroot is not necessary. Please do not download the downloads as "ZIP".
Installation:
1. Replace existing boot partition:
"2017-12-M8.B582.stock.kernel.boot"
copy in the TWRP backup directory to the ExtSd and restore.
2. Install update:
"2017-12-M8_B582_AdvS_Xposed_SystemUpdate"
also copy to the TWRP backup directory and restore."
3. Rooting:
- In TWRP mount Internal storage/ system,
- go to: Install, system/ k-rom/ set and install the SuperSU.zip.
- Reboot.
- After starting, take the BusyBox App from the download.
Then please use it to install its binaries.
- Install the PM+ app and bring the autostart administration to the phonemanager.
Iggnore the incompatibility warning.
Do not reboot between steps 1 to 3. Do not wipes before and after.
That's all. The installation is complete.
If Viper or Xposed have not been installed with it, this can be found in the
Advanced settings can be made up for.
Xposed is already active. In case the framework gets disabled,
in the Advanced settings. There's no way use other Xposed versions.
This also applies to SuperSU. They are not compatible with this system.
Both are optimized for this system.
Of course, you can also use Magisk to root later with the instructions
in the v5 thread. (loss of ota authorization)
Xposed does not run under magisk rooting together with the Advanced settings.
It must be used for a successful SafetyNet test, must be completely removed before rooting.
In the Kangvip Advanced settings do not use the Addblocker and "hide Activate NavBar".
Both works only on China Roms.
Hiding the NavBar can be done comfortably with the App "Tiles" from the playstore. (See v5)
In the K-Advanced Settings /tune cpu, some of the following are available.
Modifications of the computer performance possible. Those who need more power can do so.
Testing out the "Power save" options is useless. Did a lot of it.
The Huawei's own energy saving settings cannot be topped.
Good luck!

I saw this rom abit ago on the euro net, all kang roms will work on any mate 8 version b580 and up all models , all it takes is the custom multi version kernel , I found a few online , but I run dl0017 because I feel its the best and all the diferance is with google framework is install thegoogle apps package. There r multiple ones available , just be sure to remove autonavi location services from the phone too to get proper gps and remove hi suite.

My rom is a pure system update. It's tuned to the stock kernel. All other partitions remain unaffected during installation. It's not just Kangvip Rom. There are no problems with the Gapps. They do not need to be reinstalled. Many Devs adapt the kernel to the rom, I do it the other way around.
Well the kernel is what differentiates the phone from the OS LOL. U do know u can take the newest b592 kernel and just patch a few lines for it to be accepted and not trip any security features , eg: fingerprint dev opt.
@ChinHon
One question
Do you can overwrite a normal B560 with this backup (v2 or v3)? I saw nothing about of which firmware we can have to install your custom rom.

The B581 is required, but it does not work with the B560.
I have now successfully rooted the V3 with magisk and stock kernel. Substratum no longer works. We can do without it, too. There are no EMUI themes for this. I didn't keep Xposed with magisk, but the previous installation with K-Settings. Stable here too. Antutu's good at 95,850.
Would this work on asia/ Pacific l29 b585??
i have a mate 8 with b581 can i flash v3? and do i need to wipe?

Yes you can. Not flash, but as TWRP backup restoring. No wipe, please. It's all in the manual.

If you mean the ROM, Pacific definitely. Maybe the 585.
Make a TWRP backup and then test it. If it doesn't work, you just have to restore "boot and system" of your backup.
