I GSM unlocked my Sprint LG G3 to use on T-Mobile. Everything worked great until I tried to load a stock T-mobile firmware. Phone hard bricked. I ran through a guide to unbrick the phone. The last step is to load the tot file using LG Flash tool. Every time I try to do this I get a CrossDL D581 to LS990. From reading the only solution I've found is to change the hex in the first line of the tot file to make Flash tool think it is loading the D581 tot file. Does anyone know what this change would be or another method to get this phone up and running again? Or...since phone is unlocked and was working on T-Mobile with H+ speeds a way to load a T-mobile firmware? Thanks
any solution to this question?
Heloo everone i am from INDIA
recently i purchased and refurbished lg lg3 within setting i could se it was D855 but on body it was D850
so i thoguhts its D855 because software it was running was D855 but then i flashed D855 firmware to update it and it is soft bricked i direct goes to download mode and nothing works
I took it to a shop he tried sevelar firmware at once i got it boot up but no camera wifi no modem, so it was not the correct one,
So is thier a way i can get it working?
How could i figure it is sprint at&t or verzion??? because it was an cdma set,
Cm13 or stock rom anything could work for me
Anyone please give me a procedure will b thankful to U.... :crying:
I you are able to access download mode, try and flash the latest marshmallow KDZ for D855. My device also has D850 on the back but it has the D855 software.

long time lurker here.I bought a g4 second hand.it was advertised as h815 unlocked.the imei checked out online and all stickers said 815 as well.but in hardware info it showed h815T(HK variant).thankfully i knew how to flash firmwares so i downloaded a KDZ and flashed it with lg ft 2014.for some reason (i dont remember why) i flashed 2-3 times with other kdzs and ended up in the current state.the phone now shows H818(dual sim variant) in hardware info and doesnt
detect my sim card(same sim works fine in my G2).I never downloaded the h818 kdz.
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||((TLDR))||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
phone shows wrong model in settings and doesnt detect sim card.flashing stock kdz doesnt fix this
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

i think is was misinterpreted. its a h815 but a h815t indeed and unlocked mean carrier as you know theres no way to unlock bootloader.. you need to flash the h815T KDZ. i hope that you didnt mess your imei.
inject only works in LP not on MM. also youll need to find out if you can downgrade to lollipop. as this phone have antirollback wich means once you are on a version you cannot go nack or youll hard brick phone.

thank you for the response.im on lollipop right now since ft 2014 doesnt flash MM and lgup and ft 2.0.1.6 stop flashing after checking phone info(they stop flashing as phone shows h818 but kdz is for h815).I flashed h815T kdz multiple times(twice just today)but phone still shows h818 in lgup and in settings.the phone cant be h818 as it only has 1 sim slot.
imei is ok right now.SIM issue happened to be a ****ty sim cut job by the customer service guy.only remaining issue is the wrong version showing up in phone settings. cant flash MM due to that.
also,is there anything good about upgrading to MM???

Actually MM isnt an upgrade. Lollipop is best(maybe nougat will be worth anything). I think you should flash uk v20g kdz with lg up(or LG firware flash 2014). I suggest using LG UP also you can give TOT method a try

Do they check in build.prop? If so just change build.prop value and you're good to go. I think that there is also possibility to fake your software version and then flash anything you want

Hello i need help with my LG G4. Am trying to find the offical firmware but i have failed.
The phone model number in the settings says H818, the back sticker under the battery say H815 and the model number on the mother board says F500L.
Before it had lollipop and was working well so i tried to upgrade to 6.0 and thats when issues sarted. After upgrade it works but the network is not working.
I tried to use the LG Bridge to get the firmware and it got me F500K so when i tried to install it failed.
I have tried to install several firmwares using the LGUP but all fail bringing me an error of kdz is invalid.
I have tried the LG Flash Tool and it have failed too.
Can anyone hlep me find the stock firmware for this phone.
Check your box

I bought the phone from a friend so it has no box
If it's a single SIM and not from America, probably H815.

franken phone.. mean phone refurbished by other variant parts.. even they can edit software .. best thing to do is... open up phone and look at the motherboard model.. what ever the motherboard says thats your variant.. you have to phisically see it with your own eyes.. not by looking in software they also edit that..
Wen i checked the mother board, thr was F100L MAIN

The board version is F500L. But the software is of H818. Therefore flash tools would see the phone as H818 and generate invalid file error for any firmware other than H818. So you can recover it installing different firmwares of H818.
You can get its LP 10e here and 10b here.
By the way, how did you upgrade from LP to MM? Means using which tool?
As you have read in the FAQ sometimes when you send your phone away to be repaired (under warranty in my case) you may get your phone back where what is flashed on it does not match the actual hardware. In my case the motherboard was an H810 and the software claimed it was an H812, even SALT thought it was an H812.
Well the good news is just flash on what your motherboard says it is. In my case the H810 unlock and roms both work great. Everything except for the flashlight works but that is a known problem with the LineageOS 15.1 rom as of writing this. The phone has been in use for over a week with no freakouts, reboots, excessive battery drain, overheating or otherwise.
REMEMBER! caveat emptor, this worked for me and might not for you!
TL;DR you should disassemble your phone and make sure the hardware matches up to what you are using to root it with. And also make damn sure you carrier unlock it first before flashing on a custom rom. The custom roms will not carrier unlock your phone and in my case claim to be successful and fail silently.
One additional thing to note here, I do not know if this was incorrectly flashed by the tech or if putting on the H812 rom was intentional. I did not use the stock phone whatsoever so I do not know if all the hardware (calls/camera/flashlight/etc) even worked properly.
@steadfasterX per request.
Hi, I too have a frankenstein h810 device, but I only realized it after I unlocked flashed a custom rom and everything. I bricked the phone, but I'm using the sd card unbrick method to run the phone. With that said, you mentioned to use h810 files and everything should work fine. I've tried that, but with little success. Either there would be no sound or LTE or no video. I'm currently running h812 roms/modems and my lte does not work and my battery performance is less than stellar.
My question is, what are the current builds of the files are you using? Also, what can I do to unlock my phone? I got the code, but it does not work and you mentioned that its best to unlock the phone before installing custom roms.
One last tidbit, when I go into download mode and try to use LGUP to unbrick the phone, it says my device model is unknown. Is this something to do with the frankenstein motherboard?
Thank you
I have a 810 board flashed with 811 software

Is that where you got the files? Then I can just extract them from a stock KDZ from the internet myself. I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to unbrick my phone. LGUP cannot recognize my phone model while it is in download mode. Even salt is all over the place with its information. I bricked the phone a while back so I forgot exactly how I did it in the first place.

Ok, I managed to get LGUP running with an edit to the build.prop of the device. LGUP says the phone version is H81220x. I checked the motherboard and it is the same model as baconbacon's LGG4, h810. What are my choices on flashing a proper KDZ? I've read certain things about ARB, but I'm not 100% sure how it works. Looking at the LGUP tool, it wants to select a .tot file. Any suggestions?

You should be able to.flash 812 software on it then. Google 20v kdz for 812 and flash it with lg up. If .kdz extension isn't available select refurbish....it can be tricky but eventually it will give you option to flash kdz
My phone is a 810 with 811 software. So when I used lg up I flashed it back to 811

Yes from there you will need to install twrp custom recovery followed by ROM.of your choice.
Go ahead and flask the 20z 812 kdz first. See how it goes

Flashed the phone and LGUP says it was rebooting the phone but it never did. Now nothing comes up, not even when the sd card is installed. The only feedback I get from the phone is when it initially opened it vibrates, but no screen nor recognized in windows.
