48A is 6.0.
4.4.2 is KitKat
Try searching threads on here. It took me a LOT of digging, but I found the answers. Every way that something went wrong for someone on here, minus bricking my device, happened every time I tried to root. the .kdz method absolutely would not work for me. the .tot method, however, worked with lg flash tool but the .dll file being lgup8975 from the .zip of the same name as stated in the previous stately statement, but then again, what state is your phone in. is it happy?

I'm also trying to downgrade from 48A.
Did you mean lgup8974.dll? I can't seem to find lgup8975 anywhere, and I get the same error with lgup8974. I've tried following every guide I could find, as well as improvising, all to no avail. I'm about ready to offer of $50 to anyone who can successfuly downgrade my phone...
Edit: Nevermind, I figured it out. Phone is VS985WK... Guess I'll just have to sell/trade it...

You can use the 31B dll file to restore or as in my case i flashed 24B KDZ that worked for me

From what i have figured out with trial and error, if you are rooted and try to take the OTA and receive the 0x1111002 error, you can use the .tot file and flash back to stock and then it will allow you to take the OTA.. I flashed back to stock 3 times using the .kdz file and each time trying to update it would receive the dreaded error. Also you can downgrade back to 10b using the .tot file after taking the latest OTA.
The kdz files do not take you back to stock 'new'. They are kdz files for a version that was never released, so yea the update is going to see the wrong version and fail. Tot for pure stock.
Thanks for the info. Id seen several people tell others that were getting the error to use the kdz file so just thought would pass on a solution for others that had the same issue.
Yea, the difference between the two method seems be missed by many people, I didn't know until a couple of days ago. Someone said something that made me ask specifically.

Second post in this thread.
A lot of people were having a real hard time using the .tot file to return to v10b from v11c, for a variety of reasons, so Autoprime and AnnoyingDuck made the purchase and distribution of a v10b pre-release .kdz version happen, bless them both. They did not know the kdz they bought was a step pre-release at first, but that did not matter since they never intended the .kdz to provide a path back onto OTA's. The goal was just to get folks back to a rootable stock, from which they could flash things like the v11c modem image, if they wanted to.
Flashing back via the v10b .tot method always was possible, and returns you to OTA-capable stock. Its just that the .kdz is easier for most folks, if all you want is to return to a rootable version.
So, its been a rough time with this phone. I received it rooted and im really a noob to any of this, its a verizon phone, its labeled outside, and when you remove the battery it says model VS985. But in the settings it says otherwise. I placed an att sim card in it, and it worked fine, i just had some errors on the rom that i have no idea how to fix, it all just seems like a hassle to me, so i decided to unroot it to the best of my ability. I managed to download everything and when i ran the lg flash tool, i selected the firmware i downloaded, the verizon one, but when i tried to run it, it would say "Device Model is different" "factory model check error" or something like that, it would identify the phone has D850, which is at&t version.
So i went ahead and said **** it, i downloaded that version and went with that, something messed up and it ended with factory reset status 2 instead of 3.
So i had to select BOARD instead of UPGRADE in the flash tool. and it reset everything, booted with att logo and everything, now the only problem is i don't get any signal, at all. Any help?

Somewhere in the g3 forums is an unbranded DLL file. It is my understanding from reading about it previously, you need to use that to allow you to flash the proper firmware. The DLL file was made to fix this exact issue from what I read before.

I have the exact same problem but mine is seen as a d855 when it is a vs985 if you can find that .dll file please tell me as well! I am going to search for it now

If you are 100% sure you do in fact have the Verizon LG G3 (VS985), replace the Verizon DLL file with the Generic LG G3 DLL below. This error is most common if you have changed the Product Name, Product Model, Display ID, and/or Build ID entries in the build.prop
The generic dll file is on autoprime's site. It's named LGUP_8974.dll and can be found here- http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G3 Use that along with the Verizon firmware Instead of the Verizon dll
Hawkswind thank you so much!! that worked for me now i am going to flash back the verizon .dll file
Thank you.
Firstly, I apologize if this has been asked. And I'm sure it has. Before we get into the " do your research" rebuttals, I have been trying to get this done for about 2 weeks now. What i'm trying to do is root my phone and install a custom recovery. This is my first LG phone ( im coming from Samsung). I am on Lollipop. I understand that I have to revert back to 12b. So as I do this, I see that we use the LG flash tool. I am having a terrible time in getting this to work even as I follow the instructions on youtube ( although im starting to wonder if these are out of date). Main Issues tend to be that they call for a .kdz file and all I find for downloading are .tot files. What is the difference here? Another Issue im running into is the fact that I cant even get signed into the toolkit. I keep getting an error message. Unable to login and what not. I'm guessing it has something to do with the .dll file? Anyway. I'm not a pro by any means, but I just feel like I should be having some rom fun by now Can I get anyone willing to help me further please??? Cheers ahead of time!!!!

go to the general verizon forum and look at op #2 in my sticky Reference thread. all the drivers, tools, directions, and links are there.
i prefer to use the TOT method, have never used the kdz, but each uses a different flash tool and instructions.
the instructions in the flashing stock threads linked there are very good.
try following those threads, and forget youtube.
after you pick a direction, and run into issues, post back with which method, and your issues. then it will be much easier to help, rather than me posted a step by step novel that for the most part already exists.

There are two different flash tools. The official LG flash Tool, which requires TOT and DLL files. And the unofficial KDZ tool called "LG flash Tool 2014", which only needs a KDZ file. Use either one to get back to 10b firmware. You can then use Stump root to root it. After that, you can install TWRP Manager from Play Store. And from TWRP Manager, you can put in your phone model and it will download and install TWRP for you. If you want to, you can then follow the Jasmine rom thread to upgrade back to Lollipop using TWRP. I personally prefer to stay in 10b as I found it to be very stable and after I un-install the Verizon bloatware using Titanium backup, it is quite smooth.
Thank you both. I'll give it a try here in a bit. It helped a lot no one there to compare two completely different setups I did not know that thank you both again

UPDATE.... I am now rooted with TWRP. Once again thanks to both!!
Recently I Rooted My Sprint G3 Lolipop. Had no Issues there. Then I wanted to install TWRP, So I downloaded AutoRec, waited for the app to confirm everything and installed it. When I turned my phone off and tried to reboot into recovery, it Gives me a screen that has the LG Logo and it says Security Error and turns back off. I can still go into download mode but thats all I can do.
Ive read the other posts for this problem but i havent found one for my specific Phone.
Can anybody please help me with step by step Instructions?? Im still not super expirenced in rooting phones and the other phones I have rooted have always been successful..
Sprint LG G3 5.0.1
LS990ZVC
Heres a link to that same problem. The member experiencing the issue fixed it by flashing a .tot file from a previous ZV version he went from ZVA to ZV4 u should be able to do that i believe by using the 2014 lg flash tool, look it up. While i dont like flashing different ZV versions myself i think u might be safe for the most part.
Me personally think but might be wrong so dont quote me.. Lol but i would flash using a ZVB tot/kdz in the 2014 flash tool and i believe the lg support tool will then upgrade u back to ZVC if not the LGUPtool i mean your taking it from a noob but i think i stand correct here lol
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/help/help-security-error-t3177905
Thanks. Actually didn't even waste my time on it. I still flash and do everything else with my phone. Found out it was a authentication code or something like that. Thanks for the reply back though!!!
I've used the KDZ method successfully to return to stock several times but now I have to do a warranty exchange and Verizon won't send the replacement phone because they claim they can see I didn't take any updates. So now I have to go back to stock but I can't use KDZ because the charging port is the flaky part so I can't connect to the PC. What if any alternate methods can I use?
On a related note, I am guessing the replacement will have most if not all of the latest updates and from what I've read I can no longer use Stump Root to root the phone. Alternatives?

Unfortunately, KDZ or TOT require the USB port. And those are the only way to return to full stock.
If you have root and TWRP now, I can make you a flashable zip that contains all the stock 47A partitions, including recovery, so once you'd boot out of custom recovery you'd be back to stock. I can't guarantee that it would say "Official" instead of "Modified" in the About menu, though. I also can't guarantee that the phone won't be bricked somehow, either. All the risk is on you.
Stump is still the way to go, you just have to downgrade to 10B using the TOT method and the .DLL that's extracted from the 35B KDZ. Both the TOT and correct .DLL are up in my Android File Host link at the bottom of the first post of @annoyingduck 's stickied return to stock thread in the General section, or in my signature below.

The good news is I fiddled with USB enough to be able to successfully flash the 10B KDZ again. The weird news is that when I went to check for system updates, I was politely told my phone was up-to-date at 10B. Makes no sense to me and I'm not sure what to do about it. Any thoughts? The only reason I care about the updates is Verizon swore they wouldn't send out a replacement until I took updates. I.e. their complaint was that I hadn't taken any updates.

It's normal and common that after flashing a TOT or KDZ that it says no updates for hours or even a day or so. Eventually, as long as you have an activated Verizon SIM inserted, it'll get updates. It won't without the SIM so if you already are using the SIM in a backup phone, that's another reason why.
If your USB were reliable, I'd suggest flashing the 47A KDZ, but I would recommend against it at this point.

Good point about 47A. Especially since their complaint was I hadn't taken any updates I want to be to say I actually took an OTA so I've got 24B on it now and I'll give it a day and see what shows up.
Glad to see you got it flashed back to stock.
Also, I should have asked this before, but are you using the original cable that came with the phone or a different one? It could be the cable itself is bad. Have you tried several different cables? Also, make sure you are not hooking up to USB 3.0 ports. I believe those won't work or don't work well with this phone. I could be wrong.
Or it could be the USB port is loose on your phone causing the issue. In that case, that's a hard one to get to work other than what you tried, which is jiggling and fiddling with it.
In any case, it appears you are good to go. Just because you haven't taken the latest OTAs shouldn't prevent them from taking the phone back IMHO but who knows.
Or, as @roirraW "edor" ehT stated, you can wait a few days and it should get the OTA eventually. I've usually found that after flashing TOT or KDZ, I get the notice right away.

No. That's only the .DLL. You also need the .TOT file, which I have the same place as that .DLL, and you need to extract them from the .7Z (7-Zip) archive with the free www.7-zip.org.

Yes, Stump's brute force option, then TWRP Manager to put TWRP on, then wipe Cache, Dalvik/ART, Data, flash the ROM you want and then the appropriate Bootstack for the ROM you're flashing.

OK finally got back to this. I have the flash tool and LGUP8974.dll and VS98510B_01.kdz. In the flash tool I see nowhere to specify a dll to use so that makes me a little nervous. The directory with the flash tool executable has other dll's in it already but none have the same name as the dll I downloaded. Do I just drop the downloaded dll in that directory and flash the 10B KDZ or is there something I'm missing? Clearly I'm erring on the side of caution here. Sorry for all the questions but I rather ask alot and get it right than damage anything.
My bad not the KDZ but this: 7a._VS98510B_03.TOT-4.4.2-KitKat-MD5_hash_inside-(official-will_get_OTAs_-_file_inside_is_mistakenly_named_Jellybean).7z

It doesn't matter where the separate .DLL is, or the TOT. When you launch the tool you browse to the locations of them. If you already got the different megalock.dll and replaced the one in the installation directory then you're good to go. I don't think there's any danger, if something's not right it won't flash anything so there's no chance of damage from that anyway. There's directions for the TOT method all over including in the non-Verizon G3 General section. The instructions are the same no matter what device, just use that TOT and .DLL, and the driver's for the VS985 instead of whatever ones the guide you use specify. In all cases it's the same flash program and replacement megalock.dll as far as I've been able to tell.

Well see here's what is confusing me. I have the flash tool and have used it many times for KDZ's. However, there is no spot in there that lets me specify a particular dll AND it only browses for
.kdz and .cab files. .... .tot doesn't appear to even be an option. The only two files I downloaded were the TOT and dll for going back to 10 B that you pointed. It leaves me wondering if something is amiss with the flash tool I have. I am operating under the assumption that my objective is to flash the TOT file as I would previously flashed a KDZ but the flash tool I have wont even select a TOT file or a dll for that matter.

The Flash Tool 2014 is for KDZs only. If you Google for "TOT method", you'll find instructions and links to a different flash program, and also to the megalock.dll that you need to replace the one that the program comes with when you install it. Find a TOT method thread and you'll get all the information and screenshots you need of what you need.
