How can I downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2 HELP PLEASE! - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have D802 G2 that had stock rom and I've upgraded to the 4.4.2 KitKat with the following manual:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2665985
This is a vodafone official rom which is suppose to be rooted.
How can I downgrade back to the original 4.2.2 stock rom?
I tried the LG R&D Recovery tool and loaded the 4.2.2 kdz file and turned my phone into download mode but it doesn't work.
It keeps on saying that my phone has the latest updates by LG, I wanna downgrade !!!
Anyone can help ???

Anyone help?

I'm interested in it too. You can try to follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
but i'm not sure if it is ok to downgrade (I think it's safe). I tried it but unfortunately I can't finish because of an error that is occurred and I didn't find any solution yet. So by now I still have 4.4.2.

I have same proble. any help?

Reset to Factory doesn't work as a method to roll back? Or does upgrading to Kitkat also upgrade the factory restore image?

The factory restore image gets updated to kitkat. You have to use the guide Revert To Stock here on XDA and follow the instructions listed. Just follow them to a t and you'll be good to go. It's awfully hard to mess up. Even if you're not used to using methods like that it's easy peasy

you aren't using the correct tool. Find the thread Revert to Stock here on the LG G2 forums and follow those instructions. You will be using the LG Flash tool. Not the R & D tool. That's a whole different animal that is used for updating software. Not downgrading. All that tool does is search the LG servers for software updates and starts the install for you if you cannot receive an OTA for some weird reason. I downgraded my AT&T d800 using the flash tool method and it takes about 10 mins and then you're back on 4.2.2
The link the other member posted is the correct method of downgrading.

Well, simply in the last passage, when I have to chose the language, I select "different language" but in the second menu there are no language. Can I start anyway?

That's the wrong tool. That's the LG support tool. You need to use the LG flashtool that is listed in the tutorial the other member posted a link to. You don't have to do anything with languages if you follow the instructions. The tool you're talking about is used for software updates. That doesn't let you downgrade.

I have a Bell G2 on 4.4.2 that I want to downgrade and install a custom recovery. Those instructions say to use the LG Flash tool but when I download it, I notice that the source says ATT/Sprint/Verizon only. What do I do?

That I can't answer. I'm not sure if the At&t and bell images are compatible. I can almost guarantee they aren't. What you CAN do is just google search Bell LG G2 stock tot. I'm sure there would be either an xda link or a dev that had a repository of factory images for various models of the g2.
The easiest thing for you would be to search for your specific device model number (I.e. d800 which is the AT&T g2) tot. That should get you to the image you'd need for the flash tool.

I have tried searching for the tot file but there doesn't seem to be one for the Canadian variants. I have the 4.2.2 KDZ file though, can I just use the regular back to stock methods and flash it over my 4.4.2?
Edit: From what I see, only ATT/Sprint/Verizon models use the .tot and .dll method.

If you look in that revert to stock thread there is a link for the kdz method in there. Follow that and you should be golden. I forgot your variant didn't use tot

If I remember correctly the kdz method doesn't use the flash tool. It uses another method entirely. So if you got an error while attempting to use flash tools with kdz that'd be why.

Idk, world war three.
The member said his version uses kdz and not tot. If your model uses tot then use tot. I've found it vastly easier than kdz. Either way you go just make sure you follow the instructions exactly for whatever method you decide to use. Neither myself nor the devs whose method you decide to use is responsible if you somehow mess up your device. If you follow the directions to the letter you should be fine but if you're not comfortable doing this then please don't. XDA isn't tailored for noobs. It assumes you have at least general knowledge of android modifications. Not trying to come off harshly so please don't take it that way.

My ROM version isalready v10c which i updated with LG mobile support tool and I tried framaroot apk many times with no success. So I m not sure if installing v10c ROM with KDZ is going to make any difference or not. As someone suggested we need to probably flash a pre-rooted ROM.

A pre rooted Rom is basicly LG stock Rom rooted. I have yet to see anyone saying they have rooted this Rom so my guess is that flashing a pre rooted Rom is basicly not possible. I know it can be rooted wish I knew how.

Even I have this device and my software version is already v10c and framearoot doesn't work for me. So should I flash it with KDZ to make it rootable or the firmware for which the links are given is something special ? I belong to a different country , So should I flash with the firmware meant for my region or the one given in the links in that post ?

What is your firmware version? maybe there is something on the firmware that made it rootable, the version in my phone says that it is "E43510c-CIS-XX" and my stock firmware is "E43510c-SAS-XX" maybe it means that this thing is a different 10c, I also thought that I had the right version and failed with framaroot but with his 10c it became rootable.
Go check if you have the same version as him, if not, flash the firmware using KDZ, don't worry about the region, I guess it won't be a problem.
Can you post links for download of kdz farmaroot and firmware... If you have root I think u can use kdz again to flash stock firmware effectively removing root.

Does flashing with this method erase all the data ? And apart from installing on externel SD , Are other root apps working properly ?

When you flash a different Rom.it should erase all data. If you have root then everything with root should work. Root is like getting administrative power which is similar to ur windows administrator account.....

When I flashed it, no data was erased, but make a backup, just in case.
About the apps, its good, apps that need root works just fine.

So I followed this method and my phone rebooted but nothing happened. I had to power it on my self and it booted to android.
After you've downloaded the recovery IMG file, I assume you grabbed the correct one for your model, open Flashify app, select recovery image on the flash tab, browse to where you saved it and confirm. Job done.
The app should then ask you to reboot and it will boot into twrp.

I did grab the right one but it didnt boot into twrp. It shut off after showing the LG logo for a brief second.
Hmmm not sure to be honest.
It worked perfect for me.
Maybe try deleting the downloaded IMG file and flashify app and reinstalling and try again.

LG G3 (D855) Stock 30B Marshmallow KDZ

Firmware Details
Device: LG G3
Model: D855
Android: v6.0 Marshmallow
Firmware: 30B
Build: MRA58K
Kernel: 3.4.0
Status: Official
Type: Full firmware image
Date: 30.12.2015
Region: Global
Format: KDZ
File Name: D85530B_00_1217.kdz
Europe link
You can easily install this KDZ using LG Flash Tool (2014). Simply import the KDZ package into the Flash tool, connect your G3 to the computer in download mode and perform “CSE Flash” with default settings. Make sure all the necessary drivers are installed.
Note: Since this is a fully stock Marshmallow firmware, you’ll lose root upon upgrade and you might encounter issues while rooting this build. To maintain root privileges you are recommended to use the TWRP-flashable images of 30B by Autoprime instead
instructions are available here

"Normal Flash: Flash ROM without losing any data. Only use this when you need to fix system error. Beware of boot loop when flashing ROM that differ from current ROM on your phone or MOD ROM.
CSE Flash: Choose this option when you need a fresh format. All data will be gone. It's suitable for upgrading or downgrading ROM or simply use this when you need to back to Stock."

Is this stock KDZ either for 16 AND 32 GByte version?
Do I lose warranty if I update via LG flash tool with KDZ file?
Yes, it's the same for both versions

Well, I did a normal flash of the .kdz on a stock Lollipop in LG flash tool and everything is OK for me for 2 days now....for the moment I don't want root so no problems for me with downgrade but I believe the solution was explained a few posts back..... .tot method, seems to work.
Anyway, in my case all is working accordingly, the UI seems bit more responsive, battery life I really don't know what to say...because I have abused of my device since the update ?...happy New year to all

Installed yesterday on my 32gb. It works perfectly. LG has done a great job.
Sorry to disturb but I have a question about normal flash option.
If I have a g3 on stock lollipop since the day i've bought it, why should a normal flash not work ? The guys in Poland with LG pc suite upgrade are doing exactly this, aren't they ?

LG suite works when there is an upgrade for your country / brand. To anticipate this, you use file KDZ and LG Flash Tool 2014.
Just Flashed KDZ 6.0 ha ha lovely stuff my man thanks

Thanks.
Actually my question was more about the "you must do CSE Flash" thing.
I don't understand why "normal flash" would not work properly when you try to flash it on a LG which runs stock lollipop.

Problem with getting back to stock lollipop

Hi All,
I need a little help here.
I have rooted my Zenfone 5 and installed Euphoria OS. But now i want to get back to stock. I have downloaded the latest lollipop firmware from Asus Website and followed the tutorial from Windroidica (Its for kitkat actually).
Revert back to zenfone 5 stock
But when i tried to sideload my firmware file in "Apply update from ADB", it starts opening update package, verifying update package when the file sent it only 2%. And when it reaches 52%, it starts installing package and aborts. No error message is displayed and the phone boots.
Can someone please help me with this. I am in a very bad position now.
Try flash lollipop firmware 78 version using kitkat v54 fastboot n recovery?have u try this?
