Just download the 20c kdz from here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/mobile/index.php?id_mod=62
Be careful to get the right one for your model, 6WN/TAIWAN is for the 16gb variant, while TWN/TAIWAN is for the 32gb. Once you downloaded the firmware, flash it with lg flash tool 2014 and select CSE flash. It will erase all your data, so make a back up first.

Possible to flash the KDZ with normal flash so it doesn't wipe? I currently have the latest official KitKat.

You can do it with normal flash but you will likely have some problems, as they are different OS versions. A full wipe it's always the best way to avoid troubles. Take your time and do a back up first

Tmobile to AT&T

I have the LG G3 on a custom Rom for Tmobile. I'm switching over to At&t tomorrow and taking the phone with me. Can I just install a stock based rom over my tmobile stock rom or do I need to follow a method. Please and thank you for any support or point in the right direction.
Its Rooted with TWRP installed already.

Yes you can. But roms don't affect what carrier there on.

Yeah the rim does not affect the carrier. Why where you running a D851 rom on a D850? Wifi calling?

You dont really need to do anything as TM and ATT use the same LTE bands and share IMEI databsae info. I had a TM note3 that I used on ATT until I got a G3. The ATT sim will register you on the network and you'll want to make sure you have the correct APN settings ( The ATT store can do it while your there or can tell you what's needed) The only issue I had was the TM modem didn't always get great signal and wouldn't place calls in some areas. Not sure of G3 but ATT modem wouldn't flash on my note 3 via odin or otherwise... Cheers!

Lg g3 at&t factory unlocked firmware update question

Hey guys, I recently purchased an LG G3 AT&T Factory unlocked so other network carriers can be used. But when I click software update it already says I'm updated (CURRENTLY RUNNING LOLLIPOP 5.0.1) so I assume you need to have an AT&T sim card to update your software.
Is there like any way to bypass that so I can update my phone to android 6.0? If so how? and would I need to have it factory unlocked again?
I'm new to this, so detailed explanation would be deeply appreciated!
Cheers!

The AT&T model does not come factory unlocked. It's a carrier model and has to be manually unlocked. So if you bought it new it cannot be new as the seller would of had to open it to unlock it.
But no there is no other way to do OTA updates on it without an AT&T sim, go phone sim , or H2O prepaid sim.

Could I possibly download the official release rom and install it manually using a PC?

Yes but the latest is KitKat so you would be downgrading. Since its the AT&T model it's tot method only. And the latest tot file is kitkat.

OTA updates won't work with other AT&T MVNOs besides H20?

No it wouldn't work with that.
H2O sims can be gotten for under $1 on Amazon or eBay. And you don't have to add money to activate them.

So if I got a used AT&T G3, I could buy an H2O sim, activate it, get the OTA Marshmallow update, the remove that sim and put in my CC sim? Even if I had to buy the $10 Paygo plan, it would be worth it

Yes you can. As long as the used G3 was not rooted you can OTA update.

Will an unlocked D850 receive the update or does it still have to be locked to AT&T? A lot of D850s on eBay are unlocked.

The unlocked ones will get the updates just fine. But you still will need an active AT&T sim or H2O sim to get the update.

Hey were you able to install marshmallow on at&t D850 by ordering H2O sim?
Please do mention when you inserted that sim then you were in H2O network range or overseas? (as I am in New Zealand)
and how did you manage to install after inserting sim?
Thanks for helping pal.

Actually, you should get OTA updates on Consumer Cellular. They are my carrier and I have received several updates on my AT&T G3, including one just today. New software version is now D85030p.

Word of caution. Be familiar with how to revert to KK using the tot method. I say this because if the phone has been rooted, and all that was done was uninstall the root app and factory reset, the phone may not take an OTA update as it will read the system as modified. Plenty of discussion on this here in the forums. Also keep in mind that there is no permanent root method for MM as of yet.

I bought a 2015 Moto G instead of the LG G3. Decided to go with something not quite so large and with manufacturer (as opposed to carrier) support for MM. After looking at them "in the flesh" I decided the G3 was a larger phone than I wanted. Thanks for your help.

Not sure why your posting in this thread, CM 13 is not stock or official firmware. You first need to ROOT your device.

LG G3 Lollipop to Marshmallow update

I see this has been asked quite a few times, but I want to clarify a little further.
I'm in New Zealand, so I can't update my LG G3 to android 6.0 as I need an AT&T sim card. I was wondering if I could use an expired at&t sim, without a plan or credit or anything like that, to update my phone.
Thanks!

Stock marshmallow KDZ

Hello I plan on returning back to stock and I would prefer the stock 6.0 marshmallow ROM. I can't find a marshmallow kdz anywhere online, is there someone who can upload It for me?

[emoji52] that's because the AT&T model is TOT only. And you must flash KitKat and OTA update to MM with an AT&T or AT&T prepaid sim. It's brought up here at least once a week. The newest firmware possible to flash is KitKat sadly.

Okay well can you point me to a stock KitKat ROM then so I can flash it and take the ota?

You would follow my LG G3 back to stock guide. And use flashtool to flash it in download mode. You are using the phone on AT&T correct ?
What rom where you running before? If cm or something not based on the D850 you'll first need to flash a rom based on the D850 to avoid any issues.
