i wana 30f for d800 tot
I am thinking it is a curse trying to get to lollipop on the G2. I have bricked my phone a few times with this process, once a hard brick and that was no fun. I can use a TOT and get back to d80020c but then I am stuck.

Yes you can. The LGH631 and the LGMS631 are both the same devices essentially, same exact hardware on the same exact network. I personally used the 5.1.1 T-Mobile bootstack and the returntostock zips which I flashed via TWRP after rooting. Stay stock unrooted 5.1.1 and then jump on your wireless network and wait for the update. I was able to keep my Metro apps this way.

Thanks for your contributions to the Xda Community and also helping us Stylo Owners even though you jumped ship to the G4 but i dont blame you for advancing to better technology im the same way, I was a Boost Stylo owner but switched to the Metro variant because it has better specs. Anyways Thanks again Draken

And does anyone have a link to the current drivers I should use when flashing with this tool? Thanks guys

I don't believe LG Flash tool works anymore, at least not for our phones. I was lucky enough to get Marshmallow through the OTA after reverting back to stock, but when I first got the phone back in October last year the first thing I did was try to root it and bricked it. If you download LG Bridge there's an option for "Update error recovery" on the bottom right of the software update tab and you can sideload a kdz file there.
Here is where you can get USB drivers for the Stylo.
Thank you. Just trying to get this figured out in case Draken is unable to get his zip fixed. I'm currently rooted on 5.1.1 and trying to go to marshmallow
Not a problem. Happy sideloading, but keep in mind that a kdz is a full return to stock and you'll lose everything on internal storage and you'll be setting it up like a brand new phone. Then again if you're going to root it using the guide on here you'll lose all internal storage data anyway so...
Regardless, good luck!

There is a method to flash the T-Mobile kdz file 10j and then OTA update to 10L and then to MM.
I was rooted on Lollipop/Katana ROM and did this method and am on MM/T-Mobile variant, then rooted after MM update.
LG Flash tool was used to flash the Tmo kdz 10J file (lollipop).
http://androidforums.com/threads/metro-pcs-lg-g-stylo-users-update-to-marshmallow.1011917
I have the metro stylo
I haven't been able to flash the MM kdz with flash tool only able to recover using earlier kdzs. Has anyone been able to use the 6.0 kdz in flash tool?

Your Program Files folder is "C:\Program Files (x86)".
@DrakenFX are you still around? you dont have this phone anymore right? does that mean you wont be able to make a flashable zip of the metro mm kdz that is finally out? heres the link just in case http://www.mylgphones.com/metropcs-...receiving-android-6-0-marshmallow-update.html
just another question to anybody that might know regarding that lg up tool...i just used the lg flash tool to flash back to stock so that i would hopefully get the metro mm ota...well it worked perfectly and i was able to get back to stock just fine, but now i still havent received the ota...so im wondering, if the flash tool worked for me, can i use it to install the metro mm kdz instead of using lg up?

Hey,
LG UP is a new and easy tool from LG Official. It can flash kdz/tot/dz files.
You can use "LG flash tool 2.0.1.5 or above" to flash kdz/tot/dz files.
The LG flash tool 2014 is a tool modified by some one from Vietnam, I did not test it.

LG g4 correct kdz ????

A while Back i tried to update my LG g4 H815T to marshjmallow using the LGUP method. I followd the thread on XDA.
When I was finished with it my phone got soft bricked. ( It booted up bu tgot stucj on the LG logo and blue LED flashed continiously.)
I tried using the same method but this time LGUP was not even recognizing my phone. Then I started searching for other methods i.e LGFlashTool but that didn't work either so I gave up on the phone.
The other day I was just sitting and realized thatthe issue may be that I flashed the wrong KDZ. Since the link that was provided to all the LG KDZ didn't have a file named just H815T.
Now I searched the internet but couldn't find out what KDZ to use. Any help would be really appreciated. Also, If someone thinks there could be another fix please do share as I'm not a 100% sure that i'll unbrick my phone even if I do find the correct KDZ.
here are the links i reffered to
the tutorial I used:

LG F510l Downgrade from marshmallow to lollipop and root,tweaks

THIS IS ONLY FOR F510L
SO AS YOU GUYS KNOW THERE IS NO MORE LOLLIPOP KDZ FOR US,, AND V20B KDZ IS MARSHMALLOW
BEFORE WE CONTINUE JUST LET ME TELL YOU THAT THERE IS NO BUG OR PROBLEM AND H959 HAS THE SAME SPECS AND WE WILL USE
LG FLASH TOOL 2014 NOT LG UP WE WILL NOT USE LG UP BECAUSE IT WILL SAY INVALID KDZ AND THERE IS NO WAY TO TRICK IT
SO WE WILL BE USING H95910C KDZ https://mega.nz/#!ncQHiIoT!ypxWaYIigtKhzNCcArh9IBaUMbQf9oIcajJzBb5B1Ng IT IS ONLY WAY FOR US TO DOWNGRADE TO LOLLIPOP,
ANYWAY BOOT THE DEVICE TO DOWNLOAD MODE OPEN LG FLASHTOOL TYPE CDMA, PHONEMODE DIAG AND CSE FLASH
{{{WARNING NORMAL FLASH WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE,SO USE CSE, ALSO CSE FLASH WILL DELETE ALL YOUR DATA}}
AND WAIT IT TO BE DONE I DONT KNOW ABOUT OTHER DEVICE BUT MINE WAS VERY FAST AND ALSO
{{ WARNING DONT DISCONNECT AT 90% WAIT FOR 100% ON PC,NOT PHONE!!!}} SO YOU GOT 5.0.1 GREAT RIGHT!
{{ WARNING I DONT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR PEOPLE THAT FLASH KDZ OF H955 OR EVEN LS996!!!!!!}} LETS CONTINUE TO ROOT
ROOT, FOR ROOT WE WILL BE USING LG ONE CLICK ROOT IT WILL WORK FOR ALL LG G FLEX 2 MODELS SO OPEN SETTING THAN FIND BUILD NUMBER AND TAP IT 7 OR 10 TIMES THEN GO DEVELOPER OPTION AND TURN USB DEBUGGING {{WARNING DONT TOUCH OTHER THINGS IF YOU ARE NOT PRO AT THIS}}
{{WARNING ONLY TESTED ON H959 5.0.1}} DOWNLOAD IT FROM https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxHZt3I9BpoZRjMwN3Uzdm1rbkk/view
AND OPEN THE PROGRAM AND WAIT FOR THE MAGIC {{WARNING WAIT FOR 100% JUST REMEMBER ALWAYS WAIT FOR 100% ON ANYTHING}}
SO YE WE GOT ROOT, ANYWAY LETS CONTINUE TO TWEAKS
TWEAKS FOR PERFORMANCE AND BATTERY WE WILL USE https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...od-ultimate-performence-blazing-fast-t3482317
AND FOR BETTER SOUND WE WILL USE XTREMEMUSIC https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-beatsaudio-e-xloud-installer-t3029951
AND WE WILL ALSO USE HIDDEN MENU OF OUR DEVICE CALL *#546368#*959# AND THEN GO SVC MENU THEN MLT THEN UNCHECK MLT
{{WARNING UNCHECK MLT NOT USB DEBUGGING!!!!}} THIS WILL IMPROVE OUR BOOT SPEED AND BATTERY AND MAKE SURE THAT ASSHOLES FROM LG WONT SPY ON US!
FOR WHO IS WONDERING WE WILL USE FLASHFIRE TO FLASH ZIPS AND WE WILL USE 5.0.1 BECUASE IT IS FULL SYSTEM NOT UPDATE LIKE 5.1.1
, YE 5.1.1 KDZ OF H959 MAY WORK I DIDNT TESTED IT BY MY SELF ANYWAY BUT I AM SURE IT WILL HARD BRICK AND ANOTHER REASON OF USING 5.0.1 IS 100% ROOT
I WILL ADD HERE BOOTLOADER UNLOCK AND TWRP AND LG G6 ROM HERE VERY SOON
SO ANYWAY WISH YOU GUYS LUCK
Hi. If you are making the INSANE and BEAUTIFUL things to our great device, PLEASE could you do for H955 too? Cause I am fed up with LG's Marshmallow S***. I can't buy an F510l to have the priority to install and follow your threads files, but PLEASE make bootloader unlock, twrp and the LG G6 rom for H955 too. Succes!!!!!!!!
---------- Post added at 10:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------
And also i had 5.0.1 and root. I know the procedure. I am known with things.
ruseiulian https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h955-firmwares/ download from there kdz 10e is 5.0.1. 15c is 5.1.1
Flash 5.0.1 and use of one click root and u can use tweaks that is in this form but on disabling instead of *#546368#*959# you have to use *#546368#*955#
I know. I already have 5.0.1, and root too. And i know about MLT since i had an LG G2. I have disabled it on my flex 2. I want to know if your LG G6 rom, when you launch it, i will be able to flash it on h955. If its compatible with h955. And sorry for my bad post. Bootloader unlock and twrp already made for h955.... so the main thing is the LG G6 ROM )
I will make LG g6 Rom only when there will be new method twrp and the bootloader will be fully unlocked and working
Because I don't want other people's device to hard brick or even soft brick also the I will be making special kernel in the g6 Rom so I need 100% guaranty that unlocked boot loader won't brick the device
Ok man. Thanks for answer... I wait until you will finish the rom.. Succes!!!!
Hey I want to know My devices is F510L on Lollipop 5.0.1 If i flash kdz H955 will it boot ?
read better i said no problem
All thing will work just do as i described and you will get 5.0.1 with better performance and sound with root
after every boot it comes a message that's mean about error what about it
Unlock bootloader and twrp are on progress right?

Need help.(solved)
