No signal, wrong country version - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a problem with my LG G3. The phone shows the well known message "Current version is not available for user. Can't find matched cust for NT-code mcc/mnc[], subset[]". If I insert SIM, the phone won't connect to any network.
This is how it happened:
I bought the phone form Aliexpress as refurbished. It came with Android 4.4. It could not find any update for my ROM. So I decided to root it and install CM13. But during the rooting process the phone got hard bricked. I had to follow the guide with shorting pins and Qualcomm driver to restore the phone. Unfortunately I didn't have the original ROM. So I flashed files from LGD855AT-00-V10e-EUR TOT. Then I was at least able to get to download mode and flashed a European Lollipop ROM with LGUP.
Since then I'm getting this error message no matter which ROM I tried. According to IMEI the phone location code is A6GBTN. So I even tried to install a UK ROM without any success.
I think the fault might be caused by the fact that during unbricking I flashed also do misc.img partition. And now the data in it don't match with my phone. Is it possible? What should I try?
Thank you.

[Q] Am I locked to a specific carrier?

Dear guys,
I'm on E97510H-232-10 now, with stock kernel.
I've been trying to install the E97510H-EUR-XX version on my device, but any KDZ file I have tried so far (10D, 10H, 20A) aren't changing the postfix "232-10" to "EUR-XX".
I think that the 232-10 is referring to a specific carrier's mcc-mnc (austrian), and my device is locked to that exact carrier. However I am using my phone on hungarian telenor (216-01), therefore there are some kind of incompatibles with my network (which causing massive battery drain).
After doing some FreeGee, my fastboot menu says that the phone is unlocked (and of course I bought it unlocked and carrier-free). If I now try to install kdz either with kdz updater, or stock LG pc suite, the software is installing as normal, but my postfix "232-10" is staying every time the same...
I've been researching on forums for the past 2 weeks, and for now I am so tired about that sh**.
Could you please tell me:
Which KDZ file to flash (size too please)
What is the proper method to install (a step-by step guide would be sooooo useful)
Please help me :fingers-crossed:

LGD855 Changed to LS990 after flashing wrong rom.and wont go back

Hello Everyone I have a problem with my LG G3 which I have bought it recently was working nice but it had KitKat so I wanted to upgrade to lollipop but didn't know that LG G3 had different variant.
I've downloaded a wrong flash (LS990 sprint) and flashed it. so I lost the network and I noticed that the imei has changed. and I don't have the original IMEI of the phone ( the sticker on the back of phone is for D855 16GB not for D855 32GB).so I think its not the original IMEI.
After bricking the phone I've opened it and noticed that it was D855 written on the motherboard.
when trying to flash the original D855 rom it doesn't work (flashed it using the crossDLL method and using the Hex Method By changing D855 to LS990 to make the flash tool think Its LS990) the flash pass on both methods but i'm stuck on LG logo.
send it to some repairing services here in my country but they didn't fix it they thought its sprint so they flashed PrimeGSM but still no network.
I think I should change the IMEI before flashing D855 or something.
please Help me I've looked all over the NET but find no solution to this problem.
If you need more informations ask me. Help me as soon as possible this is the only phone that I have.
Did you ever figure out how to fix this? I have a ls990 which was flashed with PrimeGSM and is now detected as a d855... I have been trying to get this working for the last two days with no luck

Hello
What is the problem that you are facing ?
Is it a network problem or what ?
Primegsm is ported from d855 so i think it will show D855 on any lg g3 that does'nt mean that your phone detected as d855.
Make sure your phone is ls990 or another variant
And which country and carrier ? So i can help you.
I basically have a soft bricked phone - no OS as all. I am in New Zealand running on the Vodafone network.
I was using PrimeGSM and it was working fine but decided to go back to the stock ZV8, when running through LG Flash Tool I noticed Download mode was showing the model as a D855 and would not accept the LS990 DLL - I then made the mistake of using the generic DLL with a D855 image which started a boot loop - then made more mistakes and ended up with no OS and stuck at the LG logo.
At this stage I am able to get to fastboot and use fastboot boot to get into TWRP but cannot do much from there, I also have to use the D855 TWRP image as the LS990 fails with a device tree issue. fastboot will not erase any partitions or flash any images manually. Using terminal in TWRP I am able to browse the partition though but cannot mount the SD card or use adb to push or pull (fails with error closed)
I stuffed up quite a few times along the way but sure I can recover from it since I still have quite a bit of access to the device...
I managed to get my phone going again by following a guide I found in the forum, I am pretty sure it would solve the ops issue as well.
Really quick and easy, I just bridged the points with a needle and copper cable.

AT&T LG D850 stuck on download mode (posting after almost all possible ways)

Hello
I recently bought an LG G3 D850 32GB AT&T with version n, that is D85010n and while trying to get CM13 on it, i have got it stuck in download mode.
I have tried all possible solutions, searched on google, to get it recovered but I think its all about the firmware version conflict that the flashing fails.
1. The phone doesn't go into recovery or fastboot mode.
2. Trying to charge while turned off, results in entering download mode
The last resort i thought was the DLL and TOT flashing via flashtool but it failed too saying "Change Partition Error" [3 sec]. The firmware i used, and widely available is LGD850_V10D-xxx-xxx or LGD850_V10f-xxx-xxx. I dont seem to find the V10n version of the rom.
I am asking for help here please. Is there any way to revive the telephone? It was originally on kitkat 4.4.2, unlocked for other networks.
thanks

open phone . take out mother board .. and read plaque model. if sprint flash sprint KDZ and LGUP. if H815 then do that .. thats the only way to be sure.
U have a refurbished model.Go to nearest mobile repair shop & take out your motherboard to see what model no is written on this.Then flash a rom accoringly. Don't flash any other rom just by assuming else you will brick your device.
Yes my phone is refurbished...
But how to flash the rom?
If I found it to be a sprint version and flash a sprint rom ...it will be locked?I am using phone in India...
Any chance to root the phone and install twrp?
Then flash a custom rom?
Please help...

Most probably it will be locked cause most higher Android versions LG has blocked rooting or unlocking..But you can always browse few threads.
Mine is also a refurbished model with F500L motherboard,LS911 body & had H815 global rom installed out of the box.I am currently on F500L Nougat locked & unrooted..I have tried almost every method.It failed to root & even to enter fast boot.
If you get your proper model no on motherboard then just flash the rom with ToT flasher in download mode with respective DLL.

Thanks for your reply...
Your network is locked?
You cant unlock it?
Can we degrade our Os to lollipop to get root?
Even I cant turn on the Enable OEM unlock under the developer mode...
Any more advices?
Please help.....
I have tried almost all h815 ans ls991 roms with all flashing methods but still unable to successfully flash my device...lg tot flash tool always show dl error after 4 to 6 percent of flashing...
Please help
Any idea's?
Pick the phone, and send it to the place where you bought it. If you have warranty the repair is free, if not, then you must pay sadly.
Still no solution, I even cannot enable OEM unlock under developer options...
It automatically disables it...
Please help
Just experienced this issue after changing sim card... Call and Camera stopped working over and over again.
How I solved it: Go to the specific app that is causing you trouble, and clear cache/files (too bad I only found this after 3 factory resets).
Maybe it will help ... LG G4 CAM

LG G4 F500S bricked, stuck with download mode.

Hello Members,
I will start with a bit of a back story. I ordered a G4 H815 off ebay and the seller information showed it is coming from Hong Kong. Upon arrival, I checked the phone's hardware using CPU-Z and everything seemed fine. The back plate and the about section of the phone both said the phone is H815 model. The android version of the phone was 5.1 so I tried checking for the phone update through ota but it said there are no updates available. So I started searching on the internet for a H815 image file to update to Nougat but I found that Nougat is not available for the 815 model. So I searched and downloaded MM build for the 815 model (H81520b). I flashed it and then later bricked my phone. Sometimes the display stayed blank, sometimes it worked but the radio of the phone never worked. Now after flashing, the phone's about changed the model number to H818. After extensive research and digging through XDA I found that the phone I got is a F500 version refurb (LG or someone did a big scam here). So I downloaded the F500L20c image and flashed it and it fixed my phone.
Later when I checked with imei tracker websites, I found out that my model is F500S and although the L built worked fine for me, the network was very unstable. In order to fix this I downloaded the nougat built for F500S (F500s30b). It flashed perfectly on my phone but I got many errors on startup, so I decided to flash it again but with the refurbish option on the LGUP. The flash started like normal but got stuck at 38% and gives the error 0x2000. After that my phone only boots up to download mode. I tried many times using the refurbish and upgrade option, with the previous and other different kdz's but no success to any of my tries. Any help here would be appreciated.
