Hi everyone,
I have been looking high and low for the original rom for my phone.
I downloaded the v10e TOT file and flashed it but it doesent seem to be the one I had on my phone.
It used to say V10E-EUR-XXX under software info but with the TOT files I flashed it now says V10E-GLOBAL... Which doesent make any sense.
Tried all sorts of Diff TOT versions and it always ends up saying global.
And as soon as I install my sim card it installs apps from every carrier known to man, its over 200 apps and I have less than 1gb of storage left after its installed all the crap. Meaning I cant even install whatsapp.
The problem seems to be that all of the sites currently hosting roms for the G3 are not the original versions from LG, and the lg site itself seems to no longer exist.
My phone wont update either, even with V10A running, under software update is always says its running the latest version. Im assuming its because the rom is pointing to the older LG servers which are no longer online?
I used XDM to pull some of the roms from the old LG servers and these are working fine. It shows as EUR and not GLOBAL and it doesnt install a million carrier apps. But I can only find 30C or newer, I cant find the V10E. Seems its not up on the server anymore.
And only these KDZ files actually show as EUR and dont install other apps. All the ones from mylgphones.com and storagecow.eu etc etc all show up as GLOBAL and not EUR and install unwanted apps. Oh and almost all of the apps it installs cant be removed. So the phone becomes unusable due to lack of internal storage.
SO my question is, does anyone here have the V10E German 32GB Original LG KDZ file??
I would Greatly Appreciate it if someone could upload it for me!

so had the OTA update LOLLIPOP for my g3 D885 uk version and the first one gave me UI errors
so used the lg flash tool to get me back to V10A software using the kdz file a few of the OTA updates later and i am on V10L all good so far
i then apply the OTA V20E for lollipop again all installs fine and no UI errors so great then i notice no home buttons so near off impossible to navigate around i also noticed when i clicked WI-FI it just hung there i was able to go in and out the screen but it would just stay on searching
i am very new to this so am being cautions on what i am doing so not to screw it up
so i decided to flash again using the lg flash tool to get me back to V10A again via the kdz file and do OTA updates to get back to V10L
could some advise or show me the file i would need to at least get to V10L as cant seem to find it and also how do i tell what carrier its on and if its for UK and 16GB
i have read loads on here but not 100% sure as i am trying to take to much in so a little hand in the right direction i hope will help me
once i have the kdz file for a 16GB UK v10l i will then try again with getting lollipop on my g3 as would like to at least have it to try it if there is also a file that will work for me is it worth trying that?
1 other question when i download the kdz file from online how do i tell its the correct one for the UK
eg i have 1 with a file name of D85520e_00 i know its the lollipop as its 20e but thats it
so sorry but wrapping my head round it and need some help
i hope the above makes seance and someone is able to help me out
thanks for your time
cheers baz
Hey, friends. How are you all? I have lg g3 d855 (16GB and 2 GB version) in Pakistan. Software version is v20h-Global-SI.
LG PC Suit says that I have new update but due to low internet speed it takes forever to download new version of software which is D85520L.
I installed an app "Lg Phone From" from play store. It also shows new firmware available to download for my LG G3 is "D85520L-00.KDZ". I have downloaded this file.
I want to know a few questions.
Is the file Downloaded from "Lg Phone From" correct? I don't want to brick my phone.
Will I still be able to get OTA or update with LG PC suit after flashing KDZ?
Sorry for these stupid questions. This is my first LG smartphone. Due to alot of variants I am confused. Please guide me in this regard. I will try to explore forum for more help. But your answers can save my time. Thanks
Yes it is the correct file for you and you will still get ota updates.Basically you can flash any kdz from different regions that are for d855.
E.g i was using v20u which was for U.K but my phone was from australia(optus network) and was working fine.Now i'm using a custom rom based on stock.
Aslam O Alaikum Umari bhai.
Thanks for help.. JazakAllah.
Hi,
I purchased the phone in the UK from the network carrier Vodafone. I have done a fair bit of research on the rooting and unrooting process mainly via videos and reading tutorials on XDA.
I would like to root the phone and gain super user access and install some Xposed modules but would also like to be able to unroot and flash back to a stock Vodafone firmware encase I need to claim under warranty. I have been trolling the internet to get the correct KDZ file and found this site (ttp://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/country.php?country=United+Kingdom). I believe that the correct firmware may be on here but am a little confused on what the suffix and software version means to be honest.
The reason for my confusion is that I updated the firmware to 6.0 Marshmallow through the LG bridge but when I now check my phones software version it states v20b-234-15. I assume this is right but from memory the first software version when I got the phone was something like H81510B_00.
I cant remember exactly what it was before unfortunately but the KDZ files I have found state H81510C_00 (Suffix - AVDFVK) and H81510C_00 (AVDFLR) and this does seem to make sense but I'm thinking it was B instead of C but and not 100% on that.
Do you think these KDZ files would be the correct one to flash back to encase I run in to some problems rooting?
I am also assuming that this KDZ is Android Lollipop and not Marshmallow so is it OK to use this to revert back from Marshmallow?
Thanks and any help would be much appreciated.

The 10X version are all Lollipop, 20X is marshmallow.
When flashing a KDZ on your phone, what's important is what model your phone is. H815 in your case.
If you want to restore to stock in case something goes wrong, you can find everything here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/guide-lg-g4-stock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848
In there is a link to this directory: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G4/ where you find pretty much all KDZ files for G4 phones.
I'm not that experienced myself, but I rooted my phone just recently and I can share my experience with you.
I have a H815. It was a V10c-TWN-XX version (Taiwan). I updated to Marshmallow with LG Bridge also and the new software version was V20b-TWN-XX.
Marshmallow rooting is not possible on my phone because I can't unlock the bootloader on it. And Marshmallow rooting is only possible with an unlocked bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader is only possible on European phones (http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryTypeCode=ANRS). I asked autoprime (renown user and developer here) if I can unlock bootloader after flashing an European KDZ on it. He said no, having European software on it is not enough, it has to be a phone manufactured for the european market. Dont know why, guess because of different hardware.
So, not being able to root MM, I had to revert back to stock (downgrade) using one of the KDZs.
I chose the most recent one in the directory I linked (which is the Poland H81510E). In the "Go Back to Stock" thread I linked the OP says to use LG Flash Tool 2014, which unfortunately doesn't work with Marshmallow. But fret not, it works with LG UP! http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lgup-install-kdz-mm-lp-t3249803
When I tried flashing the KDZ with Flash Tool 2014, the process failed with an error at 5%. It worked flawlessly with LG UP. Here's more information regarding downgrading, but it really isnt hard. Just download + install LG UP. Launch it. Connect your phone. Choose KDZ file. Select option "upgrade". Hit start.
NOTE: after the firmware update was done, the phone rebooted automatically and for me it stuck at at the LG Logo (bootloop). But a simple hard factory reset did it, the phone booted and my new version was 10e-something. With Lollipop 5.1 of course.
After that, I rooted my phone using this pre-rooted image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/h815-eu-l-p-t-sea-twn-t3176195
and this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765/
I now have a "H81510e-EUR-XX" Lollipop 5.1 with root (SuperSU 2.49).
I don't really know about Vodafone and if carrier specific firmware is necessary in this case. If not, you could use any 815 firmware.
From the site you have linked with the KDZ files..... it seems they are all the same.
If you check the table for H815 KDZs from Vodafone, there are some 10C and 10D versions. Now I compared the fileKey parameter in the URL to the 10C files and the 10D files and also the bytes of the files.
All the 10C version are identical to each other, same for 10D.
Check out this screenshot I made for you: http://i.imgur.com/Ie0w4us.png
Bytes are also identical, so it's pretty safe to say those are the same files.
Dont know why they are listed several times there. The suffix doesnt matter.
I'd grab a 10D if I were you. But I think the Poland 10E should work, too. Better confirm it with somebody else though.
If you flash your system to 10e, you can use the pre-rooted image I used. Otherwise you will have to inject root yourself: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4-100-root-success-directives-root-t3180586. In this method you create an image of your system and inject root into the image, which you then flash back on your phone.
Where can i find any Firmware for this Tablet.
Tablet stuck on bootloop.
Any version would be great
Thank you
No V930 firmware has been distributed, to my knowledge. But another user reported successfully using the V935 firmware -- that's the European version:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g-pad-10/help/g-pad-ii-lte-v935-kdz-compatible-t3359878
Currently available to download here:

I wonder what broke if anything and what the benefits would be other than getting rid of the AT&T bloatware.. I'd love to get rid of the bloatware and mine is carrier unlocked so maybe I should just go for this and see what happens. I don't even use it with a sim card, I just use it on wifi... decisions, decisions...

Having used the V935 stock image to recover a fouled V930, the main things I notice that are broken using a V935 stock image are that the rear-facing camera doesn't work (since it's different between the two models), the size of the system files is misreported such that it significantly reduces your available storage (since the V935 has 16GB and the V930 has 32GB, I'm guessing), and the gyroscope seems to not work.
Have seen some kludgy fixes for the system file size issue, and one can always throw in a micro SD card for more storage. If you just need it for browsing the web, reading books, video chat, etc. the front camera works fine, and there are a few apps out there that will allow you to manually rotate the screen. For me, though, the lack of a rear camera and gyroscope really limit my use of this, since I use a few AR apps, and this renders the tablet useless for them. So -- unless there are patches for these issues somewhere that I'm missing -- if a V930 stock .kdz DOES show up, bloatware or no bloatware, I will be all over that.
could you help me to fix my taplet

The first time I flashed it, it did that. It turned out to be a bad USB cable. Flashed it again with a different cable, and it worked.
If you're following the instructions for using Flash Tool 2014 step-by-step by-the-numbers, have tried a different cable to re-flash it, and it's still doing that, then I don't know what to tell you. Maybe re-download the KDZ in case the first download attempt was corrupted somehow?
Sorry to not be much help!

A year later, and I'm left presuming that's very unlikely.

How to Download Firmware for LG V930 G Pad X 10.1?, how to - HardReset.info
www.hardreset.info
Hey everyone, this is a carryover post from the LG G7 Reddit. As of now, there are a number of people out there with US model firmware flashed phones that don't allow updating via normal methods (most commonly PM/Sprint phone flashed with ULM/Unlocked firmware). The only way for these users to update their phone is to flash an updated kdz with LGUP's refurbish option, which causes the phone to be wiped (while it's possible to backup most elements of the phone, it'd be ideal if a normal FOTA update could be obtained and executed on these devices). I used to own one of these phones, before obtaining a factory ULM version. The phone I bought was running the October (10g) update so I was hoping I could just capture the 10i update and share that to users that needed an alternative way to upgrade with the FOTA update.
However, LG apparently has their phone updates in a cumulative/rolled up package (in this case, my phone downloaded this 522MB file when updating, even though I'm sure only a small portion was ultimately needed). When opened with a program like 7-Zip, only one, much smaller file is shown (I don't know if this is actually a kdz file or something similar since 7-Zip is unable to correctly read the header/contents). This could very well be the same file one would download if using LG Bridge (although the PM/Sprint model => ULM/Unlocked converted phones are not detected by that program). I've only worked with HTC/Samsung/Nexus+Pixel-branded phones in the past, so I know little to nothing about LG's packaging and update methodology. Any assistance in creating (or explaining how one might go about creating) a FOTA file that could be sideloaded or flashed with LGUP would be amazing. Cheers!
Hello, updating with lgup doesn't need to be with the refurbish option. There is an update option witch keeps data.
Usually other kdz models can't be flashed on other models (but certainly possible). That also goes for update files.
FOTA updates can't be extracted with simply opening it with a 7zip. Btw how did you get the link to that update?

Thanks for confirming the information about using the update option. Another XDA user, tycrek, was able to do the same with the aid of a modified dll file (which seems to be a requirement for getting official apps to recognize modified phones; LGUP Dualmode is nice too, even if you don't need to touch the dev side). I'm unsure what type of modifications their phone had from stock though (if any).
The used market is flooded with a lot of G7 phones that were originally Sprint models that have had the unlocked/Google Fi firmware flashed to them (there is an active thread here about the subject; one of the most prolific sellers of these phones is even actively posting replies). If anyone is unsure, go to the phone's Hardware Info in the Settings. If the model is LM-G710ULM but the S/N is blank, then it's likely one of these phones. OTA Updates as well as using Google Pay are both unavailable to these phones as well (flashing the Verizon firmware to the phone can supposedly fix both of these issues, however, I didn't know about this at the time and so I couldn't test it before getting a replacement).
As far as my use of 7-Zip, I was hoping that the file was, in reality, a zip file that just had its extension removed, but obviously, that's not the case =). I still want to figure out the format of this file and extract the contents from it (I'm just waiting for some free time to appear!) As far as obtaining the link, I was fortunate, in that my phone was due for an update that had already been released. Using the 1st method in this tutorial, I was able to capture the URL that my phone was updating from (LG seems to be making use of Limelight Network's CDN to give users faster downloads... I'm sure other files are being hosted as well, but I'm not sure how they could be located aside from trying to find a pattern in the naming scheme).
