I just got this new G3 and i update now its 11c is there a root i would really like to root it please help
Could you always flash back to 10b and then root? I took the update a few days ago went back to 10b so my Foxfi works. Just hope I dont have to take the update later. This is what I did.

Yes, drop back to 10b, root, then figure out what you want to do. In my case I applied the modem, boot, and system files from 11c, but did not try to apply the ota directly.
I would flash back to 10b. Then root with Stump, Bump it so TWRP recovery will be accessible. Then download Beanstown 11c rom and flash it. You will then be on the latest version without worrying about ota updates breaking root.
Just wait for the developers to release the updates from here on or you will risk losing root and unlocked bootloader.
sadly, after getting a replacement phone, i am in this boat now as well.
loved what stump did for my old one, just need root access for ti and such.
Later on, no telling how much later yet, replacement phones will come with Lollipop preinstalled. At that point there might be no way to root and bump at all, because rolling back to v10b might be blocked.
Point is, if you need access to your phone as if you really owned it yourself, get it now and protect it best you can. Things are changing.

How did you roll back to 10b? With 11c you can't get the phone into download mode. I tried it and followed the instructions to the t and all I got was a battery charging screen. I'm not a noob.

You have to use the KDZ method. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/guide-flash-to-stock-10b-kdz-method-t2928140

Hey I accidentally took the update and thought I was outta luck. But I was able to downgrade back to stock then use Stump to root. Go here. Worked great for me.

Once y'all kdz back to 10b flash a 11c rom. There's 2 to choose from. Jasmine and beanstown. I got Jasmine running. Its a beast. I also recommend the sky kernel in the og dev section. Really helps with battery.

Correct me if I'm wrong... I thought stump auto installed TWRP? I'm new to Lg... came from an S4..... so I'm not very familiar with downgrading from 11c-10b but I'm slowly figuring it out through multiple forums.... I'm still not sure wth bumping TWRP is though.... I just want to get into CM12 eventually... lol
Edit: N/m I was thinking of BUMP..... damn YouTube videos making me confused at times...
Bump does not install on your phone itself or make any changes to your phone. Stuff like TWRP must be changed slightly by their developers to make them appear signed so they will load - bumpD does that. To the things you are flashing once rooted via Stump or ioRoot or PurpleDrake.
You don't use bumpD yourself, you flash images that have been bumpD.

okay, i want to go back to stock (turning in my G3 Friday for repairs.) im currently on Eclipse rom. now, i have the lg flash tool downloaded, and the 10b and 12b KDZ files downloaded, and am currently backing up my internal storage to my PC.
that being said, i do have TWRP and i am rooted. do i still just follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/guide-flash-to-stock-10b-kdz-method-t2928140 ?
im actually going to try the .tot method. i read that otas wont work with the 10b kdz..i got the 12b kdz.. gonna run it instead of .tot to 10b
will that put the stock recovery and stuff back on it? im assuming so.
mods, you can delete this if you wish..

Hi! Yes, that's exactly what you still need to do. All you need is the 12B KDZ. 10B is only needed when you're going to root/re-root.
If you use the 12B KDZ you don't have to bother with OTAs. Personally, and not to dissuade you entirely - it's up to you, but the TOT method is VERY finicky. Much more so than flashing KDZs in my experience, but that's just my two cents. I've never had a problem flashing KDZs.
Yes, any KDZ will put the phone completely back to stock including wiping internal storage as long as you choose "CSE" when it gives you the choice between that and "Normal". CSE *is* what you want. "Normal" is like a dirty flash, FYI and can come in handy in different situations.
Good luck!
So I'm new here and it's probably best if I start off with happened.
I was having trouble with okay Google working so I uninstalled app and reinstalled app and no change. Then I upgraded my phone. That was a big no-no. I use streaming media with blue tooth and it wasn't working. So I did a factory data reset and still no luck.
I found a Rom file and used LG flash tool and reset back to stock but I don't think my phone came with this software. I feel like there's a newer version but not lollipop. Does anybody have any idea where to get it? I think it's 12b or something like that. Oh and I used a root checker and apparently I'm not rooted?
Or can someone help me find a Rom like the 12b or just a very very stable Rom with good battery life, there are just way to many to check out. And I don't want to FC, I think that's what its called.
11c is the build I'm looking for..
To get 11c I think you will need to return to 10b via tot or kdz then root, install bumped twrp, then flash up from there. We have a 12b kdz and a pre-release 10b kdz, but not released 10b kdz or 11c kdz.
Thanks for your reply. When I went to update software it said update available but I thought it was lollipop. It says now user declined 10b to 11c. When I check for updates now it says no updates available. How could I fix it to I can update? Do I need to do factory reset?
Also, how does 12b kdz differ from 11c if you know off hand.
I got it! I was able to update to 11c after I did the factory rreset. Thank you so much for your help.
Hi guys, i have been on these forums for a few years now but i've always dealt with Nexus 6 or samsung products. I laid my hands on a Verizon G3 but i use T-mobile. I have no problem getting it to work on T-mobile but what i do need help with is upgrading the device.
Yesterday i used the IOROOT process to root the device and i used flashify to install TWRP, but then i downloaded a couple custom roms and when i wiped and tried to flash in TWRP i got an error telling me that i don't have the 23c or 24b baseband. After this "issue" i got introduced to using kdz files to restore the device back to stock 10b.
After i did that i tried to manually update this G3 to 23c or 24b but i can't figure it out. I tried downloading the 24b.zip from AFH and flash it in TWRP but that didn't work, so i'm not sure if i was doing it properly. I tried using the device on wifi to do an OTA update but it said i have the latest software, which i know i don't. then i downloaded the LG Update Tool and ran that and got the same issue claiming that i have the latest software for the phone......
Can someone please tell me what i have to do to get this phone updated to 23c or 24b so i can get back to being a crack flashing addict?
thanks
I'm unfamiliar with the 24b.zip. You only have to flash the 23C modem from bwendiord's stickied thread in the General section in order to flash CM12.1 based ROMs. You can then flash the 24b modem afterwards.
If you want to update the entire stock version of ROM you're using, JasmineROM 8.0 would be the easiest way. Just flash it in TWRP v2.8.7.0, you don't have to flash anything else before or after.

in addition,
the reason it wont update is because the 10b kdz is not official. for 10b you have to use the tot if you want to take official updates over the air.
all the other builds kdz are official and fine to use.
Thanks guys. I realized that I could just use the 23c kdz file and I was all set

My friend has a verizon LG G3. It is currently running 5.1.1 lollipop 35b. It was having a bunch of random reboots, we put in a new battery and the reboots stopped. The phone is working fine, except it keeps downloading the 46a 6.0 marshmallow update, but when it reboots to install, it gets to 2% and says error and reboots and I am back in 5.1.1 lollipop still. I checked software status, and it said "official" and I even used the Lg upgrade and repair assistant from verizon and chose to repair, which downloaded a 1.64 gb file (the 35b software kdz I'm pretty sure) and flashed it to the phone. I have also used lg flash tool 2014 to flash the 35b kdz. It always flashes the 35b kdz just fine, but still fails to take the marshmallow update.
I don't need root. All I'm trying to do is get from stock 35b lollipop to 46a marshmallow since it keeps failing. Since it didn't work even after successfully flashing the kdz, do I have to go all the way back to 10b and then just take a bunch of software updates ota until I get to 46a? I helped her get this phone on ebay, and it wasn't rooted when we got it, but for some reason it just won't take the update.
I understand there is no 46a kdz available right? I have been reading around about downgrading to 10b and whatnot here on xda, but I would prefer to not have to go through all that extra hassle if I don't have to. I don't need root, just need to update.
Any tips / ideas would be great! thanks.

I doubt if that would make any difference - OTAing to 35B gets you the same thing as flashing the 35B KDZ, but this is such a weird problem, I don't know... Try it and let us know.
You could try any extra factory reset even though flushing the KDZ with the official tool does that.
The only other thing I can think of is to try taking the OTA without the Micro SD card in.

Correct, haven't seen it. The tool you used should've downloaded the 46A KDZ if it had been available.
