I installed recently lollipop stock firmware and I want to revert to kitkat in order to install the recovery and flash the future v3.2 rom.
I tried flashing 2 different kdz firmware (10b and 10f) through download mode and the process is completed successfully 100% but the phone goes into reboot loop on both versions.
how can I revert to any kitkat rom ?
Any help guys?
Use LG Flash Tool 2014, select CSE Flash instead of Normal Flash, work for me downgrading lolipop to kitkat without any problem.
follow these instructions
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
to be able to go to download mode,
turn off your phone
wait 10s
press volume up and connect the usb cable (without pressing the power button)
it will work without problem if you have the correct lg drive install in your computer.
I just spent +4 hours how to do it, and was able to. now I am in kitkat

After Downgrade from Lollipop to Kitkat via KDZ:
Remove the Battery and make a Factory Reset with the Hardware Buttons,this works.

Awesome! What can we flash it with though?
We need a custom recovery first then this probably needs to be compiled into a flashable zip

Hi,
and if I wanna try, how to flash ?
grazie
So is there a way to flash the stock rom...
Maybe Dev. Fab985 will be kind enough to give us the steps in flashing this KDZ (stock FW) file.
Yep. I used kdz updater on my optimus one, odin on my samsung devices and nvflash on optimus 2x. Will there be any program like this to flash original firmware.
How about these steps( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060121 )from other LG phone? Will it work on O3D?
Just semi bricked my O3D
Doesn't boot anymore after changing some system files
And can't upgrade via the LG tool because it says my software is up to date already :s
I can get into this nice menu via holding down the volume down button while powering on and releasing it after the screen goes black.
Try this tutorial, i've successfully updated same version
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156549
Your tutorial worked just fine.
Thanks!
Thanks to you for feedback
Just installed a app and it asked to re-boot the phone so i did and now it just gets stuck on the lg screen any ideas anyone ?
I haven't installed this rom btw still on the rom that came with the phone.
Any way you can do this again (upload package) with the latest ROM?
.kdz it's not possibile cause for now it's only OTA.
tomorrow if i can, i'll upload a nandroid backup
Cool thanks
the kdz I get from the LG update tool is V10D and after flashing that I am stuck on Firmware update screen :'(

Hi, I have a xt1032, UL and rooted, stock rom and kernel, Xposed with TWRP. The ota just hit my phone this afternoon and I have been trying in vain for hours to update it because I need the bug fixes badly. I am trying to find the OTA.zip file....either that or the stock recovery.img file. Thank you in advance!

i dont know is there a stock recovery img in the pack of last version but i think there is just read all install drivers then flash stock rec. and then update ota,if you deleted some system apps you will get error then u should flash system chunks only to fix it after that do ota till get 4.4.3 flash costum recovery root and that's it

I flashed the stock recovery and also uninstalled xposed framework..still got an error message and update failed. I didn't delete any system apps but has some frozen thru TB. now defrosted and trying again. I'm on the T-mobile network (I thought it was cdma but I guess it's GSM) should my kernel be the174.44.1.falcon_umts.AWSRetail.en.us? because I noticed it no longer has the 'AWS' part..if anyone could offer some insight on that
So you didnt sucsess to install ota ? Why dont you flash stock rom maybe you have some errors in system and then update.My version is like u wrote (it was before update) xt1034 quote me if u done with flashing and get ota search on forum stock rom images im on phone cant find link right now .

No, no success for me yet- there are links up now in other posts for the xt1034 my friend. I think at one point I flashed the wrong firmware by mistake, cuz I definitely have a xt1032 and the version should show 174.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US but this pic has the AWS version for the xt1034 that is not right for the xt1032
Dude you dont know wich version u have remove back cover and see on battery then install US retail rom im post link in last reply.pm if something goes wrong im not at home right now .

My device was on Future V3.1(Lollipop). I flashed a recovery for 5.0 and installed Drake V1. All went well but model number changed to D838 . I again flashed same recovery in Drake v1 and flashed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pro-2/development/china-g3-v1-d838-t2979376. As per title it is for D838 but someone had commented that it is working fine in his F350. After flashing once i tried to boot the device it refused , after LG logo it showed security error and switched off. Recovery actions so far done by me:-
1. Downloaded latest kdz for F350S20b(Lollipop kdz since v10e is not available on web) , flashed it via LG flashtool 2014 but flashing interrupts at 2%
2. Downloaded tot and dll for v10e eidted tot using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...ssdl-error-t3020455/post59010479#post59010479 but it gives cross dl error.
3. Ph shows USER SO.O ASO.O B99 UHSS LG-D838 04.4.2 Hrev_10 D83810F at screen at the time of flshing tot.
I have tried all possible methods only option left is to flash D838 tot file in it . I just want to know is it safe to do so and what is going to be appropriate tot file for that. Moreover any other helpful option will be highly appreciated.

Try flashing correct TOT file for your model? (without editing)
D838 - D838 TOT
F350 - F350 TOT
Finally unbricked my G pro 2
editing tot was not doing the job , i downloaded latest kdz for my device and tried to install it but installation did not get past 2%. Finally i edited kdz using hex editor and changed F350S with D838. Flashed using Lg flashtool 2014 without connecting to internet and voila.

Hi
Is new update 5.1.1 Downgradable ? Can we Downgrade it to 5.0.1 ?
All we know 5.0.1 has root and 5.1.1 unrootable yet !
So i want to update and try the new software but may be i will not be able to downgrade it again ? AnyBody try it ?

mine is H959, so it might be different from I Series. H series can use LG Flash Tool and kdz files to upgrade/downgrade as you like. just need to make sure you use the CSE Flash method to wipe out everything when you flash.

Okay looks like the ls996 isn't as downgrade friendly. Something about a different bootloader. I basically can't enjoy a phone anymore without root so if a 5.1.1 method doesn't come quick I'll have to sell this one and get one that hasn't been updated.

I have a D800, recently unbricked by shorting pins, and i have managed to install TWRP and download mode is working. I can't run any rom. I need to flash a KDZ through download mode.
But all the KDZ are of 10a/10b etc , does any body know where I can find a 30x KDZ or how to upgrade without flashing numerous FOTAs?
or will my phone boot up if i install http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=13450? i think not, but still need to know.

The AT&T D800 uses a TOT file to flash back to stock. Are you in the right section? If you have a D800 you can use this to go back to KK and it's just one FOTA thru AT&T to go to LP. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663369
