what did you do? im trying to use KIES but i dont have the serial.. can you msg me your serial so i can atleast get KIES to download the software? msg me

Kies won't work if u updated to 4.3. Kies 3 won't work either. If u soft bricked ur phone flash the cf auto root tar. It will fix ur error. We're just stuck with 4.3 for now.

kies wont do anything. After 4.3 update we can not downgrade. My issue is i cant boot into stock 4.3. I can only flash octos or other roms but with phone not working and problems as such.

ok somehow i fixed this. I followed the instructions using twrp recover. Only difference is that after i recovered modem and radio through custom twrp method, i used cf autoroot to get stock recovery back then used the update.zip posted in another forum, to update through sideload and it worked. Back in stock 4.3.

the 4.3 update.zip that got pulled out of someones phone before he fully updated from 4.2.2 to 4.3. You can find the zip file in the General section i think.

I was on stock 4.2.2 got the update and went to 4.3. Then i flashed a 4.3 tw kernel and everything got screwed. After that i went followed the instructions found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47113608#post47113608. First i recovered boot , then system , then modem then radio through twrp using the files found there. After that i booted used the cf auto root to go back to stock recovery. Phone was still doing the boot loop up to this point. Then i figured out that the backup was probably a 4.2.2 backup so i used adb sideload to install update.zip. After that i wipe data/factory reset and it booted just fine. Ok lost everything but phone works now like new.

Error updating from 4.3 to 4.4

I'm having difficulties updating from 4.3 to 4.4.
So, bear with me as I am a noob at this stuff, but when I got my Nexus, I rooted and flashed LTE onto the phone. I did not install TWRP, I just did a temporary custom recovery. Now, when I receive the OTA update, it stops around 25% of the way through, with an Error! and the red yield sign and the Android laying on its side.
I reset my phone, however, that didn't do anything. I think I have to undo the LTE before 4.4 can install. Maybe.
Could anyone offer suggestions/help me with this?
Thanks in advance.

To make the OTA update work you have to be unrooted running stock kernel and stock recovery. Otherwise you will get an error when updating OTA. First backup all your files to a computer.
- Download 4.4 custom ROM and flash it via recovery. Make sure to flash the latest boot loader and kernel.
OR
- Download stock 4.4 image file; unzip and run the flash all file. This will wipe everything in your phone and install stock 4.4.
OR
- Download N4 toolkit and flash 4.4 via that.

Can you get to download mode? If so just Odin back to stock. The tar files are included in the all things mk2 guide.

. If you're back on mk2 stock with no root, then you can take the OTA Kit Kat update.

[Q] Fixed my D800 after being bricked but now I am stuck with Jelly Bean? Pls Advise

Hey guys,
I have been for hrs trying to find a way to update to Kit Kat to no avail.
I was on Kit Kat on my D800 but decided to try CloudyG3 rom to get a feel for the G3 interface etc.. but, I didn't like a few things and wanted to revert back to my stock Kit kat since I have a backup.
I was able to use the TOT method with LG Flash tool etc.. but the only stock firmware I was able to successfully install is D80010o. I have searched and found a thread explaining how to install Kit Kat, but the link to download the version is not working and the mirror takes you to the jelly bean ones.
I can't update it via the phone as an OTA update either. I need to get back to Kit kat so that the backup I made will accept the restore of my old settings.
How can I go back to stock kit kat, please help me find a way. I will greatly appreciate it.
thanks

Why can't you update it via an OTA update?

root, autorec and install a rooted stock rom

When I check it tells me there are no updates available for my phone that I am up to date at 4.2.2
maybe it is because I messed with flashing the baseband? It says I have version ending 1.0.190034

Are these the files you downloaded?...
LGD800AT-01-V10o-310-410-OCT-19-2013.zip
LGD800_20130904_LGFLASHv160.dll
... then used LGFlashTools v1.8 to flash the *.tot per the instructions in the second part of the OP in this thread:

that's exactly right.. although when they send you to the link to download the TOT file there are 2 tot files. One is the one you showed here and the other is V10d with a date of August. They do not specify which to install. I did it with the V10d. then trying to fix it with the V10o but the flash tool would not install it and gave me an fail load error. so I kept it at V10d. Now I am stuck with jelly bean apparently?

See if you can get this method to work...

hey man.
I tried it and the LG mobile tool said that My device has the latest software available from LG Mobile support Tool. and a pop up window says "no upgrade items to fix"
Gotta tell you though that today I had a message on my phone saying I had an update available and when it booted to the android logo to start the process it said that my phone was rooted and that I can't get the update (because of that)
So I probably need a way to just unroot my phone and get back to completely stock as If I was starting from zero.. Is there a simple way to unroot?

Try this:

Edit: After 20c is flashed and says it is up to date, just contact AT&T and ask them to manually push the 20u update to your phone. That is what I had to do.

I flashed custom rom ( slim saber )..after that I went on and installed stock lollipop via lg flash tool.. I also selected CSE install and it booted without problems.. it doesnt say I`m rooted.. previously I also installed kit kat and it said I was rooted eventhough the phone was brand new.

Someone I helped earlier had the same issue. He reverted to stock using kdz method and his phones said rooted. He was still running stock ROM when he decided to use cse flash. After the flash was complete he booted up and to his amazement all of his files were still there and his root. So what I did was installed the tot and DLL file and restored using the tot method and surel after the flash he wasn't rooted and was on complete stock ROM. Try using the tot method and see if that works.
