Hi,
My phone specs:
LG G3-D855
Android-version 5.0
V20E
Today I rooted my phone with this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951
Everything went well and got my phone rooted. After that I tried to install TRWP, except I missed a line in that guide and got the error above.
"I saw a lot of questions of G3 users about how to install Twrp after the root, so I will explain briefly:
For now, if you are on stock lollipop you can't just flash Twrp via flashify etc like the old days in KitKat,"
So I did use Flashify to flash TWRP and got the error and I'm unable to go into recovery mode.
Looked up on google on what I can do to fix this problem and found this:
http://lgg3root.com/lg-g3-root/how-to-unrootunbrick-lg-g3/
In this guide they say I can download the LG G3 Stock Factory Firmware. Looked for my version and they listed:
Android 4.4.2 V10E LG G3 Stock Firmware D855 European 16GB
Except when I look into my phone and look at the version it says V20h-E, would that be a problem when I use the V10E?
Or is there another way to fix this problem?
@Midway6
only one method I think : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
When you flash on Lollipop a twrp without dowgrade aboot and laf and no bump boot , your G3 is blocked.
First you root your G3 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951
Then you use Autorec , the apk from @bender_007 : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=b007.autorecd855

Does that mean I can use the V10E with my V20H to go back to stock?
Nevermind I found the V20H in the Lollipop V5.0 folder. I'll use this one
http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G3/Stock/Lollipop+5.0/D855/
Gonna try the link you gave me. I'll report back when I tried it.

you can apply the 20H kdz yes, then you root and use autorec.

I did that method so far so good. Waiting for Android to finish those upgrades and I'll root again.
So first I'll use that one click root method and after that I use Autorec application to install the recovery?

Yes exactly.
Before autorec, this method worked well but since bender_007 develop autorec for the G3 I recommend it

Thanks a lot! You saved my night
So now I can flash new roms and stuff and if something brakes again I can use this method to restore my phone.

I'm getting a error while flashing.
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: No md5 file found
Error flashing zip '/external_sd/.........zip'
Updating partition details...
done...
Failed.
I've never heard of a MD5 while flashing a rom.
How can I fix this problem? Is it necessary for flashing?
I never check md5 on twrp because I have always this error message. So flash the Rom without md5.
Before backup the Rom stock with twrp

I have an LG G3 D855 32GB. I have attached the Software info screenshot below.
I am wanting to root, add TWRP or whatever recovery, and install the CM12 ROM (or if there is something better you could suggest). The phone is currently running android version 5.0 as shown in the screenshot.
What is the best way to do this? I have been looking around and haven't found any for sure way of doing this.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

How would I do that? And which would be the right thing to flash with, because I don't see many other LG G3s with the same software as me.

Thanks you very much, I have cyanogenmod and twrp installed and it's working perfectly. I was wondering if there is anyway to get the original camera app from the stock ROM, I have tried a bunch of other ones and they don't seem to be nearly as good.

I was on Validus latest version 20B bootstack and was having issues ,so I decided to unroot back to stock to start from a clean slate. Meanwhile, a friend trying to help installed 10r instead of 10c as I had asked him to do . I have no data and after doing some reading this is an issue with downgrading to 10r.Also there is something having to do with twrp and losing recovery mode. Now I have a phone with no data or fastboot mode. I've tried the adb/fastboot route to no aval. I'm not really versed in this method. I have the d851 model in white. I really need some help! Thanks in advance. :crying::crying:
When I've tried to use download mode my phone goes back to LG start screen

So use this to root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g...lipop-t3056951
Then go to TWRP's official site and download the d851 latest twrp.img. Put that on your external SD card. Install flashify and install TWRP with the .img you just download. This should give you root and twrp back on your phone in less then 10 minutes depending on internet connection. From there you can do what ever you want, but probably should stick to Lollipop roms since going back to KK will have connection issues.

False information shared by @Ernesto0023.
Following this guide will get you a secure boot error when attempting to boot into recovery. Even so following this guide is impossible because root is required and OP has no root on his kdz flashed MM.
My recommended solution would be reverting back to kitkat via kdz. If unfamiliar with the method follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
After reverting use the guide from post above: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-2-8-2-0-t2966129
to flash TWRP.
Then fell free to flash whatever you want in TWRP. If stock lollipop ROM is you what you desire, download zip from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/stock-t2961073
if stock MM is what you wish for download zips from here:

Even so if his MM would somehow be rooted it was still kdz flashed so it contains
MM bootloader. That equals BUMP not working.

Hi I just bought a LG D855,
It's currently running the old KitKat right outta he box. Build Number: KVT49L, Software Version: V10n-GLOBAL-COM
The phone is missing the Update Center and thus I don't get any OTAs, I've decided to flash a custom MM for the phone. However while I try to flash TWRP via Flashify, it reboots into Fastboot and I see no sign of TWRP. Is there a specific TWRP I have to flash for KitKat?
Also, should I first update to LL and then to MM? I'd like to use any custom MM rom close to stock there is.
Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Kind sirs, pray link me to the ROM that's closest to stock for any suggestions you may have personally. :highfive:
Thank you so much in advance.:victory:

Got the lg g3 andriod version 6.0, software version d85230h, looking to root, know you cant do it marshmellow. Anyone know how to do it?. I tryed to downgrade but i cant go into download mode.
I personally downgraded to Lollipop using LGUP and a KDZ file. Then used the One Click Root (Newest Root Method in General section) and installed AutoRec to get an old TWRP version, then updated TWRP with a bumped 3.0.3.0. All good to go!
do you have a link to a tutorial on how to do that?

No I just searched through the G3 forums here and read other people's posts.
1. Get LGUP and your KDZ, then downgrade.
2. Find a thread called 'Newest Root Method' in the General section and follow that thread - it's easy to do.
3. Dig up the AutoRec tool for you variant and install TWRP - Then upgrade TWRP, there is a thread with TWRP 3.0.3.0 in the G3 Android Development section.
Good luck.

You have Root, go to Settings→About phone→click a lot of times Build number,till it shows "You have enabled development settings".Then go back at the nain screen of settings and you will see this "Developer opinions",click that and scroll down.You will see "Root Access" click on that and enable it.
