You can flash any Verizon Rom at this point. The Rom's won't include the updated modems, if you want to update those you can flash them separetely - http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/reference-stock-img-files-t2966958

You need to flash the lollipop modem. They're in post #2 of all my rom threads. ZV8, ZVA, ZVB are all lollipop.
where your rom threads?
Nevermind I found your thread, should I flash zv8 or zva or zvb

Hello everybody
I have a few questions regarding my phone and I hope you can help me solve them. I have the VS985 and I had it on 35b Lollipop 5.1.1 I was able to root it but then I realized there's no custom recovery for it yet, I was planning to try skydragon, so I downgraded using the TOT method to 10, so far so good, nonetheless, in order for me to try to install that ROM I read that I had to have the 35b boostack, so I installed the xdabbeb_vs98535b_bootstack.zip file, TWRP 2.8.7.0 says that installs successfully, I restart the phone but when I go to baseband says unknown and sure enough I can't install skydragon or cm13 because it says I don't have the 35b baseband.
I've tried the 24b, 23c and 12b modems, all get me baseband unknown and get no signal on Tmobile. The TOT I used was LG G3 VS985 10B_03 Stock TOT. I've been looking online and everybody says just flash the baseband on TWRP and voila! but not my case, I can flash it but doesn't work.
Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you.
Hello!
It is incorrect that you have to have the 35B bootstack to be on SkyDragon (same with JasmineROM). The only time it's a must is if you want to use Advanced Calling, or just plain want to use the latest modem. SkyDragon and JasmineROM contain several partitions from 24B. Flashing the ROM after the bootstack is what caused the issue, because critical partitions in the 35B bootstack were overwritten by their 24B counterparts that are in the ROM.
If you want the 35B bootstack, then you need to flash that after having flashed SkyDragon.

Hello there!
So let me explain a bit more about my situation, I currently have 4.4.2 stock 10b I downgraded from 35b 5.1.1. I rooted the phone and installed TWRP but when I try to flash CM 12.1 or CM 13, I mentioned skydragon but my mistake is CM what I want to flash, I always get the error that the modem isn't the right one, I've tried with several modems and same error. What can I do install CM?
Thank you

Either flash the 23C or 24B modem before flashing CM12.1/13. The 24B bootstack contains the 24B modem so you can flash that before trying to flash CM.
Edit: I haven't tried CM12.1 in a long time, and I've never tried CM13 so this is based only on old information which was definitely true at one time, at least for CM12.1. Repeat, no personal experience with CM13. I only chimed in at the mention of SkyDragon.

Hey there!
Thank you for your help! Well this I what I've tried, I restored to 10b using TOT I installed all modems, 12b, 23c, 24b and 35b and all of them are giving me unknown baseband afterwards, I get no signal, so I figured I'll install CM on top, but guess what? it always gives me the error that the baseband isn't the right one. I'm not trying to restore to 10b by using the KDZ method and then I'll install the modem. I don't know what is going on.
Thank you for helping on this.
P.D. I'll try skydragon to see what happens, I didn't install it because I read gives no data on Tmobile.

Hello! I have an update
So this is what I did, I downloaded SkyDragon V6.0.2 and installed on the 10b vesion and it worked just fine, I didn't want to risk to try to flash CM anymore but so far everything is working! even data on roaming, I'm currently in Canada and the Telus network is flying, over 70mb on download, as a matter of fact, I never seen those speeds in the US, at least where I live.
I'm sure if I flash CM from TWRP it will work because I'm using the 35b baseband.
Thank you all for your help!
Merry Christmas and Happy 2016!

Cool, glad you got what you need. You're welcome!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Downgraded to 10 via TOT, then KDZ'd to 12b and then flashed Jasmine 9.0 and 9.1 with the 35b boot stack. Can I KDZ back to 24, or do I have to TOT back to 10 and then KDZ to 24?
Really want to try that Stock based Marshmallow rom that was released.

Yes you can but why KDZ at all? Just flash whatever the right bootstack you need for CM13 (could be 24B) then flash CM13.
So I went back to stock and took all of the official updates. Can I root and flash M Roms again?

In the future, please post questions in the Q&A section. I'll ask a moderator to move this thread.
The easiest way to be on the latest official but rooted stock Marshmallow ROM is to flash the 10B TOT using the .DLL that's extracted from the 35B KDZ, the root with the Stump app and put TWRP on with TWRP Manager from the Play Store, then flash @xdabbeb 's stock 47A firmware ROM and his 35B Bootstack, and any optional debloat zips in the third post of his 47A ROM thread.
Any other way on 35B and higher is just really complicated, involves suspicious rooting apps that only give you temporary root anyway and you can brick doing what you need to in order to have TWRP if you want, requiring you to use the TOT method to recover so it's easiest to just use the TOT to begin with.
