[Q] Lg g3 as985 - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I've been into rooting and installing custom ROMs on android phones for a while now. I have an LG G3 AS985. This is a phone through a local Wisconsin carrier called Cellcom. They use they're own CDMA network and then use Verizon's network for data. I am having some trouble finding information about this specific model phone and have noticed that a lot of the ROMs for the G3 seem to be model specific. Does anyone know if other ROMs will work on this phone without destroying my carrier data. The phone is stuck on 4.4.2 and I would love to have Lollipop on it. Thanks for any help guys.

Were you able to flash KDZs from VS985 on it?

[Q] Flash a LS990 with a D855 T-Mobile rom

Hi guys,
In a pickle here and need to "convert" a LS990 to a D855 for carrier compatibility. Can this be done? Hopefully without any carrier customizations...
Thanks!

You need to SIM unlock it. Look in the Sprint G3 General thread, plently of things referring to this. Hope I helped

Thanks. Tried some of the sim unlock methods with varied success here in Tokyo. We only got one CDMA carrier here. Since the hardware is the same I thought I'll just flash the D855 rom and pay the $5 for the sim unlock without wrestling with it much. Would that work or would I end up with a brick?
succumbtothegreater: Are you in Tokyo? Did you manage to unlock the LS990 successfully? My attempt to flash it with a D855 rom was short lived
I'd like to know if this is possible as well, I've not been able to find out much information on if the LS990 actually has the same hardware and thus would be able to use AWS-1 bands after an unlock/flash.
Magixxx : Check my other post on how to nlocl the LS990 for any cdma network. Not sure whether it would work for gsm but maybe worth the try?

[Q] Installing F400S firmware on D850 hardware possible?

I would like to install the Korean (specifically SK Telecom model) variant of the firmware, the F400S, on my AT&T G3, the D850.
Reason I ask is because I brought my AT&T G3 phone to Korea and was able to get on SK Telecom's network. But little quirks like not being able to use hotspot tethering, visual voicemail, and access to SK Telecom specific appstore is becoming a hassle.
Would it be advisable to flash my D850 with F400S firmware? Anyone ever tried this or have any insight into this matter?
Much appreciate it. Thanks.

LG G3 D855TR (turkish) issue

Hi guys
I bought another LG G3 from eBay and it turns out it is a D855TR, so a international Turkish variant of the phone.
It is currently only on version 5.0, and there are no OTA updates that can be applied.
The phone does not even let me connect to the LG suite as there is no option to change the USB type!
I want to upgrade to marshmallow as I did with my previous G3, but all the sites that I have visited are in Turkish and I am having trouble finding information if it is safe to use the same rooting/flashing methods as the normal D855. My previous phone was just the standard international D855 and I have rooted it before and successfully flashed different roms onto it without any problems.
So I just wondered what root can I use for the Turkish variant, and if I am able to still flash different roms such as Fulmics onto it like I would with just the normal D855?
Thanks
