[Q] LG G3: Flashing Stock Firmware - Errors - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Question: What Am I Doing Wrong?
The Problem:
Yesterday I decided I wanted to Install MIUI 5 on my LG G3 (AT&T, D850). Not realizing that MIUI Doesn't suppport my phone's variant (D850), I proceeded to accidentally install the International version on my phone. (Which is model D855 and Replaced my kernel with the International variant.) When I tried booting it up, all i got was 10 Minutes of the "LG" logo, then a Kernel Panic.
Not worrying about it too much, I knew i had all the tools necessary to Re-Flash stock Firmware.
Wrong.
When I tried re-installing the D850 firmware, I got "Download Failed."
Still not too worried, I decided to download the International Version .tot file, and try flashing that.
This time I got further, but After it reached 6%, I got "Download Failed" again because of a "Partition Change Fa..." (It's cut off, But i'm assuming that last word is 'Fail')
((This "Download Failed" came just after "LAF: Bin_User_mode", If that helps in any way.))
I have no idea what to do. I tried uisng the .kdz Method also, but It failed and then I realized that I was using the LG G2's .KDZ File. Is it worth downloading the .KDZ File for the LG G3 and Trying again?
Please Help!
Thanks! :good:

If you've flashed a KDZ through download mode, then it can't be the improper e980 flash that's causing it. Maybe the KDZ file you downloaded wasn't complete or had an error -- perhaps try downloading again, then reflashing? If that doesn't work, try a different version KDZ for the 240L and see if that one has the same error.

#Solution# Flashed Wrong Model Rom To D852.

So Long Story,
Monday November 24, I Changed Out Battery Go To Restart Phone, Phone Wont Boot Stuck On LG Screens And Constantly Retrying. Tuesday Night November 25, I ReInstall Factory Firmware For G3 D852 – With Success – Phone Working. Wednesday November 26, I Decide To Root & Install TWRP – With Success – Phone Working No Issues. Friday November 28, This Is Where Sh*t Hits The Fan! I Get Crazy & Attempt To Install ChupaChups Lollipop Rom With TWRP – Seemingly Successful Install But After Reboot Wont Boot Stuck In Fast Boot. So I Attempt To Resolve This Following Other Forum Posts Using FastBootOV – WITHOUT Success – Now When Attempting To Boot Phone LG Screen Comes Up Top Left Corner Says “ERROR Boot Certification Verify” Below That Says “590 Secure Booting ERROR!” Then Black Screen With Flashing Red & Blue LED. I Attempted To ReInstall Factory Firmware For D852 With LG Flashtool Attempt Fails Stating Wrong Model Number – Phone States On Screen Near Bottom Now D855 Ver5.0 Below That D85520A.
Finally Success With Phone December 28, After Countless Hours Trying to Find Some Shred Of Info To Resolve This Including Posting Here For Help Without A Response. I Proceed To Attempt To Reinstall Factory Firmware For D852 - Failed Same Result Wrong Model Number D855. Actual Model D852. I Then Decided F**K It Ill Install D855 Factory 32G Firmware UK Version Why Not? At This Point Phones A Paper Weight In This Time Had To Purchase Another Phone (So I Dont Lose My Mind) - All Available Information Points To Send In For Warranty. So I Do So Again Attempting To Install The D855 UK Firmware Failed To Install Using LG FlashTool, This Time Stating Partition Errors. So I Find After Random Searching & Random Reading Of Everything LG G3. I Find A Generic LG G3 DLL File (LGUP_8974.DLL). Using The Generic LG G3 DLL & Factory Firmware D852 With LG FlashTool - This Time Working Up To 89%, Phone Reboots Shows Large 2, Crossing My Fingers Waiting For The Large 3. What Actually Pops Up Is A Large 0. I Attempt To Reboot Phone Goes To Mini OS, Set Phone To Reboot Normally - AND SUCCESS!!!!!! Factory OS Boots Up, The Usual YADAYADA Setup.
So Thats All, A Long Winded Story BUT Now There Seems To A Cure To Flashing WRONG Model G3 Roms To Your Device.
Hope This Works For Everyone - I Have Devoted Coutless Hours Trying to Avoid Sending My Phone In.
Good Luck!!

Man, this was a long story but I am so glad you have posted this. I always wondered what would happen if I by mistake flash the wrong file (diff model), and now I know. Can you please send me the link to the info and the files, just in case I end up where you were (email: elmspace at gmail dot com), I would appreciate it.
Thanks man. I was just wondering what is going to happen to my LG g3 D856 variant if i flash D855 kdz. Now um not gonna do that. Let's not flash any rom. I successfully rooted and am using D858HK twrp ( yeah D858HK) successfully.
hi hi
hi hi same problem after i want to root the phone my LG G3 D852 my phone stuck on fastboot mode blackscreen ,my pc see it like Android bootloader Interface BUT no other programs see it try lg flash tool or lg repair tool or cmd command nothing they don't see my G3 HELP HELP PLEASE
Sorry for the no response on this problem , got the same problem last year by flashing the d850 rom to a d852 model but this solution is not recommended. It works sometimes (was working with mine but I bring it to LG because the motherboard dies for no reason after one month of use lol) but the installation can go wrong and destroy your motherboard.

Holy hell I ran into the same issue and spent countless hours getting my D852 back to life after flashing the wrong ROM. I found this and sure enough it came back!
plss help

LG G3 F400k stuck in boot loop and can't restore to stock

hi guys,
hopefully someone can help, i was running a custom rom for f400k (http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/temaseks-unofficial-build-lollipop-5-1-t3189554), then after receiving some of the nightly updates my phone started to randomly reboot, it gradually became more and more frequent and now im stuck in a boot loop.
i'm trying to restore back to stock using the LG FlashTool (following the instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2772199), i can get all the way to start flashing and then i get the error below:
"CrossDL [F400] to [F400K]. SWversion[D855AT-00-V20p-GLOBAL-COM-MAY-08-2015-32G+0][14:39:29] ¡Ú¡Ú ERROR REASON : LAF_ERROR_INVALID_INPUT_FILE"
i'm using LGF400KAT-00-V10g-KT-KR-JUN-22-2014+0.tot and F400K.dll files
my phone is definitely f400k but from the logs the s/w version is d855
any help would be much appreciated
cheers
so after further investigation,
it appears to be failing due to the check flash tool does to confirm the tot file and dll file are correct for the phone model. i tried using the generic dll file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...de-how-to-restore-sprint-lg-g3-ls990-t2852042 but thats still failing, i've read some people have tried manually editing either the dll or tot file to show the correct version the phone thinks it is, but no luck with that yet,
any experience / info with this would be great.
cheers
bump, anyone ?

stuck on bootloop

Here's the thing, I ****ed up:
Why:
1. I didn't do a back up
2. I tried to flashthe D85530B_00_1217 ROM that's for the 855 model, and I've the 855AR (wich apparently are not the same).
What I tried to fix the problem:
1. I try to restore it: Went to recovery mode and tried to do a factory reset. The phone just restart and I went back to the bootloop.
2. I try to re flash the phone using again the D85530B_00_1217, and then D855AR20A_00, none did work and the bootloop persists.
3. Ask for help (what I'm doing here).
My question:
Can i still fix this or I have to buy a new phone?
Notes:
I used the LG Flash Tool 2014
While flashing the phone, it did reach 100% before the app did, and reset itself (before the app reach 100%).
Thanks
Edit:
Ok, so I manage to fix it. I download LGUP (older version, the one that does not work with KMZ files) and manage to flash a tot file with the D855v10e version. After that my phone was functional again and I flashed the D85520a with LG Flash Tool 2014.
Hope it help someone with the same problem I have.
Ok, so I'm still stuck on this.
I'be also tried to unbrick it using LG FlashTool (the one you have to install) but when I try to flash the tot (the european one) file, I get "Download FAIL", "Model information Check FAIL". I think I may be using the wrong tot file but I can't find the one for D855AR model.
Anyone has any ideas on how to fix this? Or where can I find the right tot file?.
Thanks

HELP PLEASE !! LG G3 D850 - Stuck in bootloop after installing stock ROM

Hello everyone. I am new to Android ROM custom upgrades. Its been around three weeks since I've experimented with my LG G3 D85010F and I would highly appreciate it if I find a useful answer to my query. I wanted to upgrade to Marshmallow so I tried using a CM 13 custom ROM and TWRP. I however ended up hard-bricking my device so I used the BoardDiag tool and I was able to get it out of the hard-bricked situation and then I used the LGFlashTool to flash the TOT file (D85010D, because i could not find the D85010F file) but the phone gets stuck in a bootloop(No Mini OS and FBOOT check ends in failure). I tried flashing the LGD850PR kdz file and the same thing happened. So I reverted back to the D85010D and still the same bootloop. (In case this is relevant I had charged the battery to around 90% before doing the flashing). Now I'm out of ideas and I could not find any solution online. What could be the problem? Thanks in advance folks!!!
