I can't update my phone - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I'm making this thread because Im having some trouble updating my phone to the latest version of Andriod.
I have an LG G3 D850 factory unlocked. This means it's an at&t phone, so I'd need an at&t sim to update it. The problem is, I dont live in the US, Im from southamerica, Uruguay specifically.
As I dont have the sim or anything, my phone is stuck in Android 4.4.2.
My question is, is there any way for me to update my phone? What happens if I download and install the D855 version for this phone (the international version) will it block my networks?
Thanks for reading!

It will block your network most probably brick your phone

[Q] From which country is my LG G3 ? 10L-EUR-XX

i want to update my phone to lollipop but seems like i never get the update no the phone, i am trying to figure out from where is my phone ?
in the software version it says 10L-EUR-xx
on the phone box it says NEU
can u help me understand from where is my phone ?
when i enter my IMEI on a website i cannot post the link because i am a new member
it says Model:LGD855
Latest Firmware85510L_00
why cant i get lollipop legit? without bricking my phone......
thanks in advance
The software version "10L-EUR-XX" means you have the European variant of the LG G3 D855 which means you can flash a Lollipop kdz as long as it is matches your phone. And if not, you can wait until your carrier releases the updated lollipop version. This means you won't run the risk of bricking your device if you just wait.

Lg g4 us911 10a (us cellular lg g4) what are my options after root

I got this phone off ebay for a deal 330$. My plan was to root and install an aosp rom.
I have rooted the phone but cannot find anyway to install twrp. Seems like all the twrp recoveries and custom roms are for tmobile and international versions
i was not aware when i bought this phone that it would be a us cellular version the ad did not say
anyways what are my options? Is it possible to get an aosp rom on this version of the phone any advice would greatly be
appreciated
Unfortunately there are no options as of now. The bootloader is locked and there hasn't been a workaround discovered for it yet like for other devices.
At best you can root and flash xposed on the phone as long as it has Lollipop, but as it looks now, you won't be able to keep root if you upgrade to Marshmallow.

thanks for the reply, i can stop searching like a fool lol
will i even get the marshmallow update, i have a us cellular version running on att network
The US Cellular model will most likely get MM soon, but if you're on the AT&T network, you won't get the OTA. I'm not sure if you would have to put a US Cellular SIM back in temporarily to get the OTA download, or if you could just remove the AT&T SIM and download it over WiFi. Otherwise, you could just get the kdz when it comes out, plug into your computer and force the update that way.

yah but even with the mm kdz file comes out it will be for us cellular and the phone will become carrier locked and i will have to go thru the hassle if getting unlocked. btw my firmware version is us99110a i bought it off ebay. the seller did not specify it was under any network just said network unlocked. but like i said my firmmware version is us99110a which i believe is a us cellular firmware

I asked around and they directed me to http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803

LG G3 d85521a

Hi, i am from Serbia, and i have Lg g3. The problem that i have is about updating my phone to marshmallow 6.0. I can't find appropriate version of marshmallow for my mobile. I do't want to root my phone, and i found few videos on youtube how to update without rooting your phone,but there isn't kdz for this model d85521a. Does anyone have solution? People who bought phone from europe, or to say models for european market, got update in Serbia. PS. I downloaded lg pc suite, but it says that i already have last version of software.

Yep - http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?exact=1&q=SM-A520L
LG+ U is the carrier apparantly.
Forgive me, but is your device even available in North America?
You may be as well to search around and confirm if another device firmware can be used on your variant (ie. A520F on your A520L)
