Welcome People!!!
In this Guide I show how to flash a KDZ to the LG X Cam using LGUP
Normally, somebody can put their device in Download Mode (LAF) and flash it with LG Bridge, but it will search the Carrier KDZ with the IMEI of the device.
So, LG Firmware has a lot of different KDZs for different carriers and brands, so in this Guide I will show you how to flash an Open (LG Stock) Software to this device and get rid of the bloatware.
What you need (Links after the Thanks Section):
LG X Cam (K580x) [Obviously] {Hopefully can work with another device}
LGUP Store Frame (Recommended the 1.14.03)
LGUP_Common.dll (Very necessarily to LGUP to recognize your device)
The .KDZ of your choice
At lease 1 USB 2.0 Port (Work more stable than USB 3.x for flashing in nearly all devices right now)
Let's Begin!!!
-Download your .KDZ (Recommended an open one, they are more light to download and are more clean), in Latin American Countries, the Colombian Firmware it's the most cleanest one in this moment.
-Download and Install the LGUP Store Frame with the Common LG DLL, as well your Drivers.
-Put the LGUP_Common.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\common (Create the "common" folder in "model", inside the LGUP Folder"), just like this:

On your device, put your device in LAF/Download Mode (Only the Volume Up button pressed while connecting the USB cable until the Firmware Upgrade Screen it´s Displayed)

Then, if you have the USB drivers already installed, open LGUP (your device will be recognized right if you had done everything above):

Select you KDZ (Notice that I have the Original Telefonica Firmware above and the Open Colombian Firmware under)
View attachment 4633857
[Process in Refurbish its recommended, but its up to you to select Upgrade]
Latter, Select Start, and the Phone Will Start Flashing

(It's possible that the Phone when finish the Flashing, it can invoke the Recovery and Delete all data, results vary [In my case, it wont delete the first time, but the second time it Format Itself])
Finishing...

It Boot to Life!!!
As a proof of having the Open Software... (Internal Space it's more free and less Apps to deal with)

Hi,
I am a complete newbie when it comes to this so please explain in simple terms.
So I will explain as briefly as possible:
- I have Windows 10 x64
- Bought LG G3 last week, it had Android 4.4.2 (and was already rooted)
- It had overheating issues and battery died fast so I tried to update Android via LG PC Suite -> Did NOT work
- I read that having root access blocked it, but that I could update manually
- I installed USB drivers
- I setup ADB and Fastboot
- I tried using LG Flash Tool 2014 and the Android 6.0 KDZ but it did NOT work (always said there was connection error)
- I tried using lgg3rootdotcom's method to reset the phone back to STOCK ROM without root and followed their instructions to the letter (set COM to 41 etc)
- I did everything, but then it keeps coming up with an error on LG Flash Tool (at 6%)
- It repeats "LAF : Bin_User_Mode" three (3) times whereas in the instructional video it only showed ""LAF : Bin_User_Mode" once (1)
- Then "[ERROR] : Partition Change factory Partition (Phone!=tot)"
(I want to share images but I can't because I am a new member with restrictions, I will post images later today)
- I downloaded the .tot and .dll from lgg3rootcom's website
- I tried D855 Europe, Hongkong, and Taiwan .tot but NONE worked
- Now my phone ONLY boots into Download mode :crying:
- I cannot get into Recovery mode or Normal boot...
- I REALLY just want to get it back to stock right now... Please HELP!
Any help will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
I used exact instructions from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2772199
But it ERROR appears at 6% with "[ERROR] : Partition Change factory Partition (Phone!=tot)"
Also, please ask any questions if you want to know more so you can help me..

I want to specify that this tool can't bypass Xiaomi Bootloader Unlock procedure but all others function are working
Make this tool to enable diag port open without root permissions... My phones imei id is lost
not unlock bootloader my device. is redmi5plus.
[question]
So you are saying that this tool isnt compatible with other phones? Is the Device list updated over the years or what?
Please give us the tutorial and link of downloaded files that needed to flash in this Phone, I'm having a hard time to understand How this thing work
So I kinda bricked my phone when trying to go back from Beta 9.0 to Latest Official. So I decided to give some kind of guide to try and assist the people Who also got stuck. Beware that I couldnt get ADB to work as it kept complaining about drivers which I couldnt make work but it was due toe phone being bricked. If you can get into ADB and have TWRP already loaded then you can simply transfer the three files from below to your phone and follow this guide with the below three files. It works perfectly : https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
If you have the same issue as me then follow the following procedure :
I have the Dual Sim EML-L29C185 (How do I know this?) Well at first I didnt so I had to figure out. So let look at the following :
EML-L29 - Dual Sim Model
C185 - South African Region Model which you can get from the following post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/8-lite/how-to/huawei-regional-codes-t3740473
So now that you know the model number go to this site and type in the model number eg : eml-l29c185 and you will get a list of firmwares for your phone : https://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=eml-l29c185&firmware_page=0

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Click on the file list and in the example below you will see 4 files but only need three. The EM09 and L29 have the same update.zip and same update_data_full_public.zip but different EML-XXX_hw_meafnaf/update_full_EML-XXX_hw_meafnaf.zip files so get the three files you need for your model.
Now download the Huawei Multitool from here : http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=759172&st=0#entry51396624
and The update.zip extractor from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
We need to manually flash all the broken image files in the phone with the Multitool but the files we need to flash are inside the update.zip file and thats why need the extractor.
So unzip the update .zip file. Then point the extractor to the folder so you can extract the files needed by the Multitool.
The following Three files need to be flashed
System [Called System.img]
Boot [Called Ramdisk.img]
Recovery [Called Recovery_Ramdisk.img] make sure it is in the folder and rename it correctly. Mine was recovery_ramdis.img without the K so had to rename it otherwise multitool wont flash it]
You can also flash it manually without multitool with the following commands :
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img
Start your phone in Recovery mode : Switch off. Hold vol down and keep holding it and plug usb cable in. Or in TWRP reboot Bootloader.
Start multitool and click on the unbrick tab on top and follow the instructions. That worked for me.
After it was done I transfered the 3 downlaoded files to the phone and followed the procedure to make sure all 3 files are flashed because multitool only uses the update.zip file and i dont think it fixed all the region stuff but this procedure did :
