LG G3 2/16 rooting problem on V30C - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hy,
I own LG G3 2/16 and I have problem with internal memory,its full altough I moved all aps,photos and media to SD card and I decided to root and refresh with custom ROM.
The problem is I'm on V30C ( Croatia ) and there is no root method for that version ( I tried newest Kingroot and previous versions without effect ) so I googled and found that if I flash with LG UP to V30B I can root phone with Kingroot.
Well,I installed LG drivers for G3,LG up recognizes there is LG device on COM port but these messages I get when I choose G3.
Windows 8.1 is operating system,but I tried on Windows 7 Ultimate and no effect.
I tried different USB cables,different ports and differents packs of drivers,G3 is recognized in Windows using MTP mount and in device manager,LG UP recognizes there is LG device but status is unknown so any help would be aprreciated.
Also where can I find V30B internation version for my G3 so I dont have to worry about bricking device ?

Have you tried plugging the phone in while in download mode ?
You need to use the LG mobile support tool from LG website ( LG UP sees phone as unknown model ) run LG mobile Support tool and in option choose UPGRADE RECOVERY
As long as you can get download mode it should recover

Kingroot works with v30c(february 2016 security update). That's how I rooted my phone.

[Q] Weird issue when connecting to PC via USB...

Have the H811 set to MTP mode but everytime I open up Windows Explorer or LG PC Suite, either it doesn't detect the phone (PC Suite gives popup - Your device is not supported Use LG Bridge ??? to manage your device), and when I try to transfer anything via Windows Explorer it crashes.
Installed all the initial drivers, reinstalled PC Suite, and LG mobile support tool, LG Mobile driver etc.
I did run a backup of my D851 - G3 when I first got the G4 before I even connected it to my PC.
Also running Windows 10 TP Build 10125 if it makes any difference, although I doubt that's the issue.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance
A H811? What's that for version? I have a H815?
And there is no pc suite version available yet.

G3 & windows 10

I updated my PC to windows 10 'from 8.1 which I had no problem)
Now my phone is not recognized. (MTP or PTP) --> LG Androidnet phone : driver unavailable
Latest LG USB drivers (from XDA) didn't hange anything.
I think that it's the same old sh*t than win7, when you don't have mediaplayer installed (MTP works once you installed mediaplayer).
I found a package for MTP on Microsoft website, but didn't change anything
Did someone have the same issue ?
This should help :

Hi
I had the same problem. I re-installed the LG drivers for my D855 and still no luck. Then I downloaded and installed LG PC Suite, let update itself and now my G3 connect to the PC. I tried using the LG Mobile Support Tool but Windows 10 says it is incompatible. Hopefully LG will release new drivers and update the tool.

I find the way to do the job :
First : install Microsoft MTP driver
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=48231
Second : install LGUnitedMobileDriver_S52MAN314AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.14.1.exe
http://18d5a.wpc.azureedge.net/8018D5A/tool/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00120120425
And then it works...
But if you wanna use download mode and fastboot this is what you will need to do also

Didn't work for me :/
I had no problems after installing windows 7. I followed this guide for my LS990: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...de-how-to-restore-sprint-lg-g3-ls990-t2852042
I can confirm this method works with D855, followed what the posts and video said to install and do. Flashed back to stock ROM and rerooted worked without a drama with Win 10 64bit.
Cheers
It works well on d855 and D331. thank you
Haha!! Found a solution!
Sorry for necro-ing this thread, but even now I still have the problem (with my d852).
My solution was to go on LG's website for my specific model and install the USB driver in Software Updates -> Way2 USB.
Again, sorry for the necro, but I don't want people in the future struggling with this.
I know this is an old thread but I just had the same problem with my Lenovo T450 laptop. A few days ago it recognized my G3 LS990 but today it wouldn't. I fixed it by installing the latest USB driver from LG's web site. http://www.lg.com/us/support/software-firmware-drivers

Is my LG d858hk bricked?

I think I may have bricked my LG d858hk by using this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=b007.autorecd858hk to flash TWRP. I have Marshmallow 6.0 on phone but may have mistakenly used wrong Lollipop app. Now my phone won’t boot – just get a black screen with red/blue led flashing. Could the problem have caused because I’d use (d858hk) Lollipop instead of (d858hk) Marshmallow app? I’m trying to unbrick the phone, but my PC doesn’t recognise phone now since using Lollipop app. It gives a message on PC screen: “USB device not recognised The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognise it.” I’m using windows 10 64 bit.
Is there any way anyone can help me to solve this problem and get PC to recognise phone again, so I can (maybe) at least get back to factory setup? :fingers-crossed:

1) You can try adding Uppercut from https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/uppercut-lgup-loader-g5-variants-t3511295 Note: Must use LGUP version 1.14
2) If you are not using LGUP-NEW download from https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803 and use that version. Recommended version to use.
3) If you are using LGUP-NEW already, then your alternative will be to use the LG Flash Tool 2014 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2797190 Note: You should be very sure that you are flashing a known and proven KDZ, i.e., one preferably that you have used before with no problems, otherwise you run the risk of hard-bricking your device. If you bought your phone 2nd hand or it is a refurbished model, it is possible that you do not have the model you think you do - only way to be really sure is to pull the phone apart and get the model number off the motherboard.
Make sure that you have the LG Mobile driver installed on your PC/Laptop before trying any of the above - it can be removed in certain instances and replaced with a generic one that doesn't allow full functioning or recognition of your device. Check in 'Device Manager' to confirm.
I ran into a similar issue to what you're experiencing after a harder soft brick with LGUP-NEW not recognizing my phone - option 3 was my last shot before sending it in for repair. The LG Flash Tool was the only thing that worked - it didn't recognize the phone but when I started the flash it worked perfectly - However, I did have a known KDZ that I had used before a few times with LGUP-NEW when it recognized and worked before. LGUP-NEW worked perfectly again after using the tool to flash the kdz.

When u plug in your USB cable to your phone do see in 'Device Manager' on your PC/Laptop: 'G4' under 'Portable Devices' and 'LGE Mobile USB Serial Port (COM_)' under 'Ports (COM & LPT)'?
If not, install or re-install the LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.2.0 from: http://www.lg.com/us/support/software-firmware-drivers
- scroll down a little, you will see 'Popular Software' - 2nd from left below there is 'LG Mobile Drivers' - click/touch there and you will see 'LG Universal Mobile Drivers' again and below there the download links for your PC/Laptop operating system.
Then try LGUP-NEW again.
You could try a different USB cable if all is good in device manager.
If you sure what your phone model actually is what you are trying to flash (using last resort by confirming model # from the motherboard itself), it may have to be sent in for repair.
