ZVA to ZV8 Downgrade - Sprint LG G3

I just successfully downgraded from ZVA to ZV8 using LG FLASH TOOL with the ZV8 tot file as instructed in the unroot, restore factory tutorial here on xda. I'm about to re update and try to root ZVA and attempt to root. I will post back after I test. I'm guessing that the latest root method should work as download mode still works.

Root appears to root correctly but when you boot back up no root. rct.cfg logs busybox as being installed but not root. I'm trying a few things to get this working I will report back.

I have figured out how to root the ZVA update. I will post back in about an hour or so with an update.
UPDATE: I got it done and uploaded the thread can be found here.

I do not have it. I too am looking for a tot version of this update. You could get the update by manually asking for it on your phone. System Updates > Update LG Software.

Check the "LG G3 system update incoming" thread. Autoprime gave us a way to flash the boot, system and modem images.

I believe it is on page 27, maybe page 28, and it is the last post on that page.
I flashed the one Beanstown had on his 11c rom easily. Didn't have to rename files.

Vs985 and As985

So I have this problem because I have soft bricked my phone and under the back of it, it has vs985 but when I try to use the lg flash tool to flash back the stock firmware it says wrong dll or whatever then it says something about as985, ok fine but the problem is I can't find that firmware anywhere, I have been searching for the past 2 weeks and found no download Link to it. So I guess what I'm saying is I'm looking for someone who might have this firmware and would be willing to upload it.
Thanks in advance!

That is for the G2, not the G3. On that site he links to, they only go up to ZVB as well. Thanks for trying though.
Oops, my bad. I got ZV8 from here and let the phone update the firmware to ZVC.

Rooted Lollipop to Marshmallow

Can I use LGUP to flash the .kdz for marshmallow over my rooted lollipop image using upgrade option in LGUP? Yes I want to lose root. I miss android pay to much.
Yes, as long as it's the whole .kdz image and not the update it will do a complete wipe of your phone to factory.

You beat me to it! How did you obtain it? I used LG VZW Upgrade assistant, but had to nuke my phone to get it to download the kdz. You have an easier way?
So is this confirmed to work because I myself have a 4 CA and I'm interested in downgraded to 10B so I can root?
