How did you downgraded the device? Any recommended guide?
I think we will just have to wait for the official SEA bootloader unlock, I'm in the same situation as you. GODDAMMIT.

Hi
I'm attempting to root my LG G3 model D855 with the PurpleDrake rooting tool, but every time I try to do it the tool comes up with the following error.
Any idea where I'm going wrong and how can I fix it.
I'm running MacOSX.
Thanks

Theres no current explots for Lollipop
Downgrade back to KitKat and you can root it and install bumped Lollipop if you wish
Ahh ok. Many thanks. I bought the phone with 5.0 already installed. I think I might just wait for when 5.0 root becomes available.

Pretty sure you can downgrade it if you can find the right KDZ
1) What does it say under software version?
2) Is it carrier branded?
3) What part of Europe are you from? I might be able to find the KDZ for you
Software version V20f-EUR-XX
and I believe it's not carrier branded.

I just wanna ask if there's a marshmallow update on HK version (H815T). It always says I am using the latest version OS but still my android version is 5.1 and my Software version is V10e-HKG-XX
Thanks!
I didn't hear anything about the HK variant. It seems that Europe should receive the first MM batch alongside South Korea.

If you don't want to bother waiting you can flash the H815 MM kdz through LGUP. I've been on it for weeks with my H815T and everything works as it should. When the official H815T update is released it'll be pretty easy to swap over as well.

You're talking about this thread here, right??: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803
I'm on the the H815T on v10c-HKG-XX with root and Xposed. Were you able to upgrade your firmware and keep your apps/settings/data, or did you have to do a full wipe before you flashed?
Can you explain to us exactly how you did this and your steps? Nobody in that thread with an H815T is sharing their details. Do you have a link to the kdz you used? Did you have to modify your prop file? Were you rooted before?
Nothing fancy needed, just download a H815-20A/B kdz (I used the one provided by autoprime's thread) and then basically decide if you want to upgrade or wipe (refurb). I've tried upgrading and it'll work, you'll keep all your apps and settings from 10C; personally I like to start fresh so I wiped my phone and then restored apps through LG Backup. That being said you'll lose xposed and root either way until someone figures out a way to unlock the bootloader.
Marshmallow is now available to download from LG bridge for H815T. Enjoy

I think you are mistaken! LG Bridge is not showing any updates aside from v10e. I'm guessing that you're confusing it with the H815 Taiwan edition???
---------- Post added at 06:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:03 PM ----------
It's not showing up on Bridge, but take a look at this: http://opensource.lge.com/osSch/list?types=NAME&search=h815
Is that the H815T rom or is that just useless code???
Yeah, i just rechecked. its showing v10e now instead of v20a.
See my screenshot. Its an HKG version.

Hello, how are you? i have few questions to ask, i have H815T
1 - Can i install KDZ MM for H815 from autoprime thread to my H815T with LGUP refurbish option?
2 - Which method is required to root this MM rom
3 - After rooting if i want to go back to stock to receive official update, should i install V10e with LGUP to downgrade and lose root.
4- Which rom you are using? are you rooted?
5 - Any chance of CM13 for H815T without bootloader unlock?

I can answer #5 for you. For now you need to have an unlocked bootloader to flash CM13. In the future something may come out but its not guaranteed.

Let it be then. I don't see any real needs to flash V20C. I am now using V20E on my H815T HK version which is very good in terms of battery life and performance.

Download a stock lollipop kdz from the links provided in the OP of this xda thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
Look into the folder "Canada D852". Those roms that have "20F" in their name are lollipop.
LGUP should have no problem flashing the above kdz, thus returning you to lollipop. From there, you then root then upgrade to MM.

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out all of this. I have D852 with Fido (pretty sure I'll need the Rogers' files) on MM Stock and I want to get back to Lollipop to root and install CM12.1 ou CM13. When I go to le links provided I can't find a Lollipop file for Rogers. The ones listed are v10 so I assume those files are the Kit Kat ones. What should I do to go to Lollipop? Can I use the Telus one that is listed as it is a V20 so Lollipop?
Thanks

Hi There,
Can you point me to the procedure and the files that you choose for a Fido D852 to downgrade from MM to Lollipop and the Root method used?
Thanks
I was able to grab the kdz from the repository on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 (they have one for Rogers/Fido which appears to be older but I suspect you could use it and upgrade once rooted).
Flashed it with http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G3/LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5_CODEFIRE.MSI (as provided by gwizerd in this thread).
From there, I installed TWRP, rooted and upgraded to stock MM following Toronto Henry's instructions (http://www.torontohenry.com/2016/03/lg-g3-d852-teluskoodo-version.html) although these are more for the Koodo crowd.

If you just got stock G3, do other mods (band mod, etc) first before flashing ROM. I waste a lot of time having to revert back to factory state as I couldn't get into diag mode.

To download to lollipop I flashed a kdz from the OP's link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089). Under step 1, look for the storagecow link. As Ahoroba mentioned, look in the Canada D852 folder and 20F in the name indicates lollipop.
To flash it, I needed the LGUP linked by gwizerd: http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G3/LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5_CODEFIRE.MSI
If you are doing this to get root and then upgrade again to MM, once on lollipop follow the instructions on http://www.torontohenry.com/2016/03/lg-g3-d852-teluskoodo-version-rooting.html

Last one in your screen shot. Starts with Telus.
Well, I thought buying this phone would end my terrible relationship with ATT's Note 4 for good... Hell it's even an H815 for christ sakes....
But it seems like it can't be rooted on MM due its bootloader being locked :/
Yes, I did try using the official unlock tool but, as some of you know it doesn't work for the Taiwan version (Just my luck).
However, I looked around and saw that the Lollipop version can have root/twrp installed WITHOUT unlocking the bootloader.
In conclusion, my question is............. will I be able to downgrade from MM to Lollipop?

From what I know the H815 model can be unlocked. But I think it's only the International one. There's an unofficial unlock in the works, just look around on the forums, haven't been that interested 'cause I'm rocking an International model
