This method is for Kitkat, and lollipop.
Now i'm going to introduce how to unbrick your G3 Cat.6.
First, you need to download these files.
1. TOT,KDZ files
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/lg-g3-cat-6-f460-kdz-tot-download-t3470250
2. Windows LG Firmware Extract
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600575
3. LG United Driver
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2UHjr8om-8QT1RFME9UOHBEaTQ/view?usp=sharing
4. Debrick.img (You should download all)
http://1drv.ms/1LnSioU
5. Win32Diskimager

7. ADB Fastboot
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1NxfQr9J2JUWExQdnk2RVlENXc/view?usp=sharing
Second, Put debrick.img files into Micro SD Card!
Extract the Zip file, and you can see
5 Debrick files.
and open the 'Win32DiskImager' Program.
and select the debrick file. and write.
After, the progress finished,
insert Micro SD card into G3 Cat.6
And Turn On your phone.
(Or Press Power + down button)
If you can see ADB Download mode, you can go to next method!
And If you can't see nothing on screen,
Try flash another file.
(like debrick 220-> debrick200 -> debrick180->...)
But if you can't see nothing (if you flashed these 5 files)
then you can't unbrick your G3 Right now...
Third, Extract your KDZ Files!
Open 'WindowsLGFirmwareExtract' Program,
and extract your KDZ files.
then you can see .dz file.
now go back to program,
Select Dz file, and Extract DZ files.
(Make sure you should check all boxes!)
And you can see .bin files.
Finished!
Fourth, Flash .bin Files into G3 Cat.6 (with using ADB)
Move ADB Fastboot files and Extracted Files into one file...
Like this.

Click SHIFT+M2 (Right mouse)
And click 'Open Command Window Here' on folder.
Then you can see the CMD.
Now Connect USB to your Phone.
and type 'adb devices'
after you can see demon started sucessfully, move on to next method.
NOW you need to replace your .bin files.
First, erase files in your phone,
and Flash all .bin files.
After you typed 'adb devices'
Type these all commands
fastboot erase aboot
fastboot erase BackupGPT
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase factory
fastboot erase laf
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase modem
fastboot erase persist
fastboot erase PrimaryGPT
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase rpm

fastboot flash sdi sdi.bin
fastboot flash sec sec.bin
fastboot flash tz tz.bin
IF YOU FINISHED TYPE/FLASH THESE FILES,
REBOOT YOUR PHONE (must eject the micro sd card)
AND IF YOU CAN SEE LG LOGO,
YOUR PHONE CAN ALIVE
Now you must do this last method.
Final, Flash KDZ File.

Does anyone have Nougat debrick images? LOL
BTW, im guessing that with the correct kdz and tot files, this would also work in the d855 right?
And finally, my phone bricked when i was updating the firmware to stock, the furthest it got was 38% with the lg flash tool, so will the phone need 4.4.2 or 7.1 debrick img?
BoardDiag2014
someone developed new boarddiag which can detect our broken LG G3 Cat6 F460 S K L
but price is high for me he asks 60 dollar for the new BoardDiag
http://www.lgbbs.com.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1107
i hope someone can put it with low price we can pay we are just a single users not a repairing shops
I have successfully repaired my F460S with debirck img MM! Although my phone run lollipop before
Thanks
If anyone has rooted Moto G4 Plus then please send me the scatter file or partition table. I have bricked my phone and my partition should be made new. Only fastboot is working. ADB is not working. I should flash by Flash Tool so i need a scatter file or from Moto Auto Flash Tool v8.2 By Jamesjerss.
Thank you well in advance.
Please do at the earliest.

Afaik scatter is only needed for mtk chipsets and its flash tool ?
In moto G4/plus, we have gpt.bin and it is partition table for us.
If fastboot is working, then use guide linked below for proper flashing.
First check that you have downloaded latest firmware (installing downgraded firmware and taking OTA update will brick your device again)
This is latest firmware and procedure (note to don't use lock command if you don't want to relock bootloader, read there correctly) : https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
Just download the Zip
Uncompress and install via Fastboot.

I think it has something to do with my network. I just tried Android Download Manager and got the forbidden error again. It looks like it'll download over LTE but not WiFi. I'm not about to use all my data trying to grab it though. I'll wait on a mirror I guess.
Working using desktop browser
I finally managed to grab it. Network was the problem. To anyone with the Jeter, this is also a no go. The bootloader won't accept the Pie boot.img. We're still waiting.

So this message goes out to you and all wanting Stock 9.0 Pie on Moto G6 Play.
I went looking for this update / flash for my G6. After a bit of searching, found it with great help from XDA forums
DISCLAIMER
I am not to be held responsible for any of the damage that occurs to your device during this process. You are yourself responsible for any damage done (if) to your device during this process.
REQUIREMENTS
Make sure your device is charged above 80%.
I recommend creating a backup of all your important files before beginning with this process.
I also recommend removing your Google account in the phone settings prior to doing all of this...
STOCK FIRMWARE MOTO G6 PLAY LINK HERE
Find appropriate one for your phone and region. For example - mine was in Official --> Retail --> ALJETER_RETAIL_9.0_PPP29.55-25_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip <-- this is the file I downloaded.
Your firmware MAY NOT be for download. It is upto you to find the correct one for your phone and region. I do not know all the codes for different regions. I know that aljeter = MOTO G6 Play. I have the Retail UK version - hence I used the Retail firmware. You may need to find somewhere other than the provided link for your firmware...
Please bear in mind that once you upgrade, you cant go back. So please make sure this is what you want to do.
Some notes;
1 - You can only flash a firmware that either exactly matches or exceeds your version. You cannot downgrade flash.
2 - the bit thats says _PPP indicates it is Pie 9.0. Look at different available downloads and you can see in contrast _OPP which means Oreo.
3 - Pie 9.0 fixed my problems I had with Oreo, namely the fingerprint scanner not working in Banking apps.
Install Motorola Driver - I used Motorola_Mobile_Drivers_v6.4.0 from HERE.
You will need adb and fastboot installed. A quick and easy way to sort is to install minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.3 - Download HERE or Google minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.3_setup.exe and you will find elsewhere to download.
Once you have downloaded your .zip firmware and have Moto Drivers and adb / fastboot all setup, you need to extract the contents of the zip file to the folder where minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.3_setup.exe was installed. For me this was C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
Download flash_rom_fixed.zip Attachment at the end of this post - Kudos / All thanks to the user vortrum, here on XDA.
Extract the flash_rom_fixed.bat from inside the zip file and place it into the same folder you extracted your .zip firmware into.
Now, turn off your device and boot into bootloader by pressing volume down button +power button simultaneously.
Now, connect your device to your PC via a USB Cable.
Hopefully - on connection of the USB cable you will hear the Windows ding (or whatever noise you have) that lets you know USB device connected.
TIP!: To fully confirm - you can open a Admin (elevated) CMD window, navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder, and type in Fastboot devices -if USB connection is successful, then your phones Serial will be displayed. If nothing is shown, I would reboot Windows machine and try again.. Also, so you know, you can continue with the instructions below without USB connection confirmation. If there is no connection, then the below will fail anyway, without harm..
Run / open / double click the file flash_rom_fixed.bat and the firmware will be flashed to your phone - this will totally wipe your phone and reboot it once finished.
Alternative / similar instructions for install;
HOW TO INSTALL STOCK ROM IN MOTO G6:
Download Moto G6 Play Stock Firmware.
Install Motorola Driver and ADB Fastboot Driver on your PC.
Now extract stock firmware in ADB Fastboot install folder. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot or wherever you installed it if different)
Now, turn off your device and boot into bootloader by pressing volume down button +power button simultaneously.
Now, connect your device to your PC via a USB Cable.
Open a command prompt window and type the following commands (you can copy paste it all and then press Enter OR copy and paste a line at a time, then press Enter after each line, once each operation is complete. I highly recommend using the flash_rom_fixed.bat file to do this for you quickly and easily ):
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot reboot
Hoped there will be one for reteu so still either wait or root and install GSI like treble or somethimg.
