Hello,
I just received a refurbished phone LG-d855 and checked it really is this version using http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/refurbished-fake-lg-g3-check-available-t3254928
But the problem is that i'm stuck on androiv 4.4.2
(build KVT49L, software V10N-GLBAL-COM, if this helps )
What can be done to show the update "check for updates" or something like that.
I want to get the OTA for marshmallow
Thanks,
Eli.

There is no ota for mm. You have to flash kdz file. Instructions can be found all across g3 xda network.

thanks, but what i saw looks like i have to have some background knowledge.
Is there a guide for dummies to do it? (step by step)
also, I need an option for Hebrew and Russian on the phone operation system (android) language.....
by the way, if there is a way to install some kind of mode that will make the phone take OTA i'd prefer it so I won't have to deal with it....
p.s
what if I use this method: http://lgg3root.com/lg-g3-root/how-to-unrootunbrick-lg-g3/
will it work? will it get the OTA of android 5 now and when the marshmellow arrives, it will get it as well?
Afraid to do it before I know it'll work. please advice
Anyone?

lol can someone help please can I get a clean stock rom on instead of this? Should I take the phone back?
Root your phone with Purpledrake. Download System App Removal from play store (red icon) and uninstall what you want
Install bumpd twrp and flash AndroidHD or Cloudy

Kind of new to LG "sorry"
Took it to the store earlier they said they have a new clean stock ROM that has nothing on.....Ran an update that took a few min then after wiping I got the same customization stuff back once the data start to sync I'm also now at 4.4.2 instead of 4.4.3 tried OTA sw update it says I have the latest. How can I get 4.4.3 update now?
Thanks!!!!
As far as i know there is no 4.4.3. And for the bloatware, it's firmware independent. That means the bloat is already on your phone in a hidden folder.

LG G3 will not have 4.4.3 update, but by the end of 2014 will receive 5.0 update for D855 international version.
You can either flash a stock .kdz by entering your imei and download it from LG's website here:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=IMEI HERE
Or flash a custom rom like CloudyG3. Please see the forums for more info on that. Also you can get rid of it by atleast rooting your device and throwing the APK's away, or as I like to do I root my device, install Titanium and batch uninstall all the apps at once and ta-da a clean phone

Weirdly that doesn't work, I had the same issue before and when you flash any kdz as soon as it booted it downloaded a **** load of carrier apps from Germany xD There is a folder that the flash does not erase, if you delete that it gets rid of it for good. (Hopefully)

Hi guys i'm new to all this soo here is what i did.
I recently rooted my lg g3 V10l-EUR-XX and now i want to unroot it ... but the problem is that i found only the kdz file without the dll file ...
Can you please help me find it or if it's possible to downgrade it from v10l ? Sorry if i said something strange or impossible but i'm a complete newbie with the roots and stuff
If you download the LG PC Suite and click on "Restore Upgrade errors" it should reflash the current version, but i'm not sure as it might download the latest which is lollipop.
You could also flash your KDZ file using the LG Flash Tool. Without the need for a DLL file.

Because i have been reading a lot of post this week and everything messed up. That's why i didn't see that the LG Flash Tool doesn't require .dll file. I just brought my LG to stock and everything is fine ... Thank you for ''enlighting'' me ! :good:
In fact i have one more question ... probably a silly one but still. When the LG was still rooted i got an update for v20e i think but i didn't install it because i assumed that it will be bad and it will ''brick'' my phone ... and now when it's stock i don't have that update. What should i do or it is just a matter of time the update to show up ?

Since you device in now unrooted there will be no problem in updating. The update may show up some time, but you can always flash it if you want to.
NOTE: Lollipop CAN NOT be rooted.

Hello
So after foolishly updating to Marshmellow and discovering that all my apps no longer update in the background, i flashed my device to the LG G4 V10D-226-01 software version, the 10D Europe Open from the LG g4 "Go back to stock rom" thread.
Problem is, everytime i open my phone i get "Warning: Current version is not available for user. Cant find matched cust for Nt-code mcc/mnc[22601],subset[ff]. I have looked both on google and here and everything i found was for the G3 model and it involved using a "custom restore" image. but no explanation on how to use it, its not a KDZ so i cant flash it.
I'm pretty new to all this and everything i wanted was to go back to my Lollipop variant after seeing how Marshmellow behaved on my phone. (not auto updating my background apps).
I appreciate any help you guys provide.
Thanks
u cant downgrade once u go to Marshmallow. Its a security thing tht was updated in the latest firmware b4 Marshmallow came out. Ur gona hav to start all over again wth the latest KDZ b4 Marshmallow
I reformated into a Lollipop KDZ by flashing my ROM from the "Go back to stock" thread. Problem has appeared after i did that. I am currently on Lolipop v10D
nobody has any idea on how i can solve this issue?

download the kdz file for your device from here and flash it using LG UP here. all will be fine. i downgraded from MM to LP after MM had big battery drain. many people have downgraded using this method.

bump to the top again, anyone knows what i should do?
Just got my D851 with stock 5.0.1 preinstalled.
Its telling me to update the phone.
Has anyone updated via the air method?
Not sure what it is but wanted to be sure if its MM or 5.1.1 before I moved forward

As a rule of thumb if you plan to root, you should NEVER update. Updating will usually patch any exploits the devs use to root our phones. It depends on what you want to do with your phone down the line.... Update at your own risk.
@tiguy99, also it's definitely not MM. I'm not even sure 5.1.1 was ever released either.
I know the D851 has been unlocked from the get-go (didn't need bumping like the others in the past) but as the previous post alluded to, the OTA just might lock it down. Be sure and be careful.

Sorry, my post was not helpful. Here is something you can do: long press on the update notification and click on the "info" icon and disable the notification. This way you are less likely to accidentally update, and it won't bother you as much.

If it is a stock D851 running on Tmo, then the update is probably the recent update of 20e (released back on June 9) to 20g (released back in October). There has been a lot of that just within the last 60 days. However, it is still Android 5.0.1. Tmo has NOT upgraded our G3 to anything beyond 5.0.1 yet, but has committed to updating us to Marshmallow Android 6, probably sometime in the next 3 months.
As for the update, all 20g did was patch the Stagefright vulnerability that had been discovered back in August. That was a vulnerability in Lollipop wordwide on all carriers. Look at your phone info under settings. If you are on 20e, it will not hurt at all to upgrade. But in any case, the update you are seeing is DEFINITELY NOT 5.1.1 and it is DEFINITELY NOT Marshmallow. It is still 5.0.1. Good luck.
Please hit the THANKS button if I helped you.
I got mine week ago and updated it didn't root but used Newest Root Method in general section and finally got it.

That being said, I made the mistake of updating. Now I'm having a very hard time trying to root my D851 20g. Can I restore to Kitkat for the purpose of rooting?
Dude this is the wrong forum for a question like this. Should be in Q&A or General. You'll get better answers there.

No need. Google 'Newest root method' D851 xda download file thru your browser double click on windows batch file. Follow prompts. Hope this helps you out.
I too got my D851 last week. It had KK 4.2.2 and wanted to update. So I decided to go ahead and do the OTA. The final result was 5.0.1 D85120g. I don't think there are any higher updates yet. Rooted without issue using Newest Root Method mentioned above, again, without issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3129197
However, if you are still unsure, you can always downgrade to a lower version. You will have to do a search for D85110r in the KDZ file version and find the loader for that file. Took me a little time to find it but I have both the KDZ file and loader.

I tried that 1 click method and it failed. I have the &D851 20g Lollipop 5.0.1. Any idea why it's failing other than error on my behalf?

I believe it's because you've downloaded 20G. Probably got patched. Did the method I mentioned work out for you?

Hi all.
I bought a used LG G3, where the guy said this phone had been used to pass around reviewers, so I don't know if this has any factor as to why I'm having issues.
So, issue is, I'm on 4.4.2 atm, and want to upgrade to at least 5, and possibly 6 if this is possible (which it seems to be from what I've seen around the web.) I tried to do it via the phone first, through the built-in update center (current version is V10g-EUR-XX) It sees there is an update for the phone, which I then select to download and install. It then tells me it will download it, and shows the object under my notifications. But then it simply says Cannot download, and just stalls at this point. I've tried both options with wifi only, and over 2g/3g as well.
(At this point I added some screenshots I took, but can't add them, as external links are not allowed for the first 10 posts)
I then tried to go through the LG PC suite, installed the USB drivers etc. When checking for updates, it simply says "Cannot Proceed Upgrade. LG PC Suite upgrades unavailable on this phone."
Where do I go from here? Can I manually update it through the flashtool 2014, or am I looking at rooting this phone, to get be able to upgrade it?
In advance, thank you for your help.
Best Regards,
Dozer.
