I am coming from a G2 where we had to flash a baseband then flash CloudyG2. I now have a G3 in hand that is stock and on 4.4.2 and the model is D851. I only have to root, install custom recovery, and flash CLoudyG3 2.2 and no other baseband/modem/zips? Is that correct?

CloudyG3 2.2 is Lollipop i think
So i would think that you would need to flash the lollipop baseband if you are currently on KitKat

Thats what I thought too, but there are vague references in the the main thread that say it contains the bootloader in the zip file for the rom.... I just wanted to make sure so I thought I would ask here.
I decided to live dangerously and just give it a go after backing up my current rom. Works just fine. No need to flash a baseband first as I believe the zip file includes it.

I want to flash a custom rom to my LS980.
I have the new ZVC update, and have TWRP due to flashing the ZV8 Bootimg.
Is it now possible because I did this to flash Roms compatable with ZV8 and up?
I have a .tot file, but would rather not have to go thru that again..

HI friends,
I updated my G3 D855 to lollipop( V20e-IND-XX) from computer using LG mobile support tool, But i cant find rooting for the same hence decided to downgrade to kitkat, but got a doubt can i flash any prerooted lollipop using LG flash tool, cant use Zip file because dont have root at the moment ..
Kindly help with some links which are suitable for flashing & downloading d pre-rooted stock lollipop.
Thanks in advance..
You have to downgrade from Lollipop to KitKat. Just use LG Flash Tool with right KDZ file. Then you root G3 and flash bump'd TWRP. After that, flash pre-rooted Lollipop stock ROM through TWRP. That's all.
which kdz to use?

Hello, if I have a A6RE D855 16GB and im having issues with lollipop. Could you please tell me if I could flash it to EUROPE COMMON 16G D85510A_00 .. I was taking a look on mylgphones.com to see the history but I'm really confused with all the letters. In on site see d85510g and on others I see d85510A. Does it make any difference if i flash the europe common?
Thanks in advance!
As written in subject, i am currently on Androidnow 20f 8.0, i want to flash a stock 20f firmware but i need root, so what are the steps in order to reflash stock 20f firmware and save root?? Thanks
1. Flash stock Kitkat firmware
2. Root it and flash custom recovery
3. Flash prerooted stock rom
But I believe you will not find prerooted 20F, just older versions.

You can flash CloudyG3, it's basically stock rom, without bloatware, stable, much faster and much smoother. I have flashed this ROM as I wanted a fast rooted stock LG ROM on my G3 and I am very happy with it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-cloudyg3-1-0-t2917467
This is what I want - A stock LG G3 D850 lollipop rom, does one exist yet?

How do I downgrade JUST the modem back? I'm on 12b and I think that modem is giving me issues as far as texting goes. Thanks
Hello.
I kinda would like to try the LG G3s Lollipop firmware but I have a question, if I upgraded to lollipop and then root and installed TWRP would I be able to return to KitKat using my 4.4.2 nandroid backup (In case I didn't like it or battery was poor) or would the baseband have a conflict and not work. Also I am currently rooted now on KitKat with TWRP installed, if I were going to update how would I do it without bricking? Do I have to unroot and uninstall xposed?
Anyone?

Okay, and this wouldn't cause a baseband conflict with stock 4.4? Or cause modems to not work anymore?

It depends on the backup you have.
You can definitely downgrade the G3 using kdz or tot files, but they contain the baseband and modems within themselfs.

The backup I have contains: Boot, Cache, Data, EFS, and System partitions... A full Nandroid backup... I have almost all the KDZ files for the US990 but need the 10c firmware for it as that is what I am on, I have been unable to find the 10c firmware and that's why I want to know if a full Nandroid backup can get me from stock lollipop back to 10c kitkat

If I'm not mistaken the EFS partition contained the modem but not the bootloader.
Custom ROM zips shouldn't affect the EFS and bootloader anyway, but you should have a backup of the EFS just in case.
And you'll always be able to downgrade using a flash tool and KDZ or TOT files.
Also I recommend trying a 7.1.1 AOSP ROM, performance is much better than stock plus you'll get the latest security updates.

Unfortunately the US990 only has two ROMs and getting 7.1.1 is very unlikely as nobody really owns that device anymore....

Here's my experience, I'm currently on a stock version of 4.4.2 Kitkat with TWRP 3.0. I went up to MM when it first came out, not enough of what I needed was compatible at the time (mostly xposed stuff) so I reverted to my 4.4.2 nandroid backup. Everything worked except the modem. I ended up finding one, installing and everything was the exact same. It's been a long time and I use 10R but i'm assuming the process is the same.
You don't have to uninstall TWRP, just backup everything, wipe and install new rom. If you don't like it, revert to backup. Make sure you don't delete the backup and make sure you have the latest TWRP.

That sucks. If one of them is AOSP based, I've always been getting better performance on good clean AOSP ROMs compared to stock.
