HELP D858HK Downgrade to L from MM then root - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, there is alot of info about flashing and rooting the LG G3 on here. So much that I am confused. i have the D858HK dual sim variant i just want to make sure that i am going about it in the right way. I dont want to do something that was meant for the D855 single sim.
I recently flashed my D858HK to MM however i want to root my phone. I read that I can downgrade to L then root then flash with a prerooted zip to MM. I just need some assistance please to make sure I am doing the right thing and if my model is compatible.
Firstly, I downloaded the L firmware from the LGs site http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=41
however 20D is not available to download so i downloaded 20e (D858HK20e_00.kdz) for my phone. Will this one be ok for rooting?
Secondly, since my phone is D858HK which step should i use to downgrade using this guide? Should i use the LG Flash tool Step 1 or LGUP Step 3? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=64624353#post64624353
Thirdly, to root will the guide here work for L D858HK20e_00.kdz One Click Root? http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951
Finally, after rooting I would like to flash using Artshell's prerooted MM zip or Fulmics Rom. Which one would you recommend?
Advice and guidance will be much appreciated.
Edit. Solved. Delete please

root (stump) , re-root (IOROOT), BUMP, TRWP,
Rooted with STUMP initially just fine. Then had to factory reset due to a malfunctioning app.
Stump does not (yet) support re-root after reset unless you flash back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906
Thanks for all the helpful posts in several threads. I Rooted using IOROOT, using ADB no problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2776198
Now running BUMP TRWP recovery too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...pment/bump-unlock-lg-g3-twrp-verizon-t2900590
BUT, since i'm somewhat of a n00b, i used Flashify from the Google Play store to flash the image. Worked flawlessly. http://www.droidforums.net/threads/...ock-and-install-recovery-on-any-lg-g3.275056/
(in flashify, pick 'choose file' and navigate to the .IMG file)
Thanks!!

My phone does NOT work so I'm not sure why the change log states 12B.
What was upgraded, fixed, etc from 10B to 12B? Not really a fan of downgrading.

[Q] [Help] Downgrading from Lollipop to KitKat

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
I've read this post like 100 times now, and i still don't know what to do.
http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda%2FLG+G3%2FStock%2F
I know my model is D855, but there are a lot of versions with the same name, i'm not sure which one is the right for me.
I'm running 5.0 Lollipop on my G3 and wanting to downgrade back to Kitkat for root. (I don't even know why i updated to Lollipop in the first place).
Also i need to download the correct software version that i need to downgrade to (ie. KitKat), but i cannot tell the difference.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Do some research into the LG Flash Tool.
As long as the software is compatible with D855 you''re good! There can be different builds such as (last 3 digits) 10r or 10c, but they are essentially the same thing with just minor changes. If it's cleared for the D855 you'll be good.
There is setup that must be performed on the Flash Tool, so make sure you follow the steps in various guides attentively. I would tell you what you need to do, but I cannot remember every detail.
A lot of the guides for downgrading will be found in the same areas as guides for rooting because downgrading must be done in order for some root methods to work.

Any kitkat build for the D855 will suffice. I remember doing TOT, but I'm not familiar with Kdz so I cannot answer that.

Lg g3 can't update to lollipop

Hi guys last month i have bought a lg g3 (d855) and its have the 4.4.2 kitkat version and when i try to update it is says that i have the latest version, and when i try to update it using lg pc suite its troubleshooting and cant update, please can someone help me how can i get the official lollipop update?? ☺☺
use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2797190 to upgrade.
should be able to get LP in some form from http://lg-firmware-rom.com/ by inputting your imei . it will be a .kdz file.
it will likely not be the most current version available for your device, but LP nonetheless.
best place to get up to date firmware is from http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/stock-t2961073
to use this link's software, you need to be rooted and have a custom recovery (twrp) installed, which is seamless. follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/root-root-lg-g3-easily-purpledrake-lite-t2821000 to root,
and install http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lg_g3/bump/ via flashify. (make sure you choose your correlating mdoel, in this case d855)
following this, you will be able to make your way to LP
