Please, note this method does not work on all models and it may also work on other LG devices not specifically related to the G3, or could possibly work on other G3 models not presently released. Please, if you attempt to use this please state the Model of your device and the carrier, whether it worked or not, so that we can keep a running tab on these updates. As this certainly would be helpful to know what devices will receive updates through this method in a timely manner.

Or direct from LG's Servers using: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
(Replace XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX with your own IMEI (Which can be found by dialing *#06* in Dialer)

you mean someone set up lg-firmwares-check-today .com or lg-g3-firmware .com for the sole purpose of harvesting live IMEI codes???
I get an error. And my device is a D855AR -Argentina version of the D855-...
Unlocked bought from a retailer........ so...
Just use the method from post #2, it connects directly to LG's servers. Can't be safer.

Well make sure you type your IMEI correctly. I am sure you already checked a few times but eh, it's strange that it doesn't work for you.
I have the same model MasterTB and firmware that gives me the page is D855AR10C_00, it came from the factory.

Well send him the link you got when you check with your IMEI. (The one that end with .kdz)
10C is pretty "old", looks like LG doesn't like Argentina

PLEASE READ THE OP BEFORE POSTING.
With that out of the way, welcome to the G3 Vigor thread. I've cleaned up the OP for you all to better see what is available at this time.
For support for anything you find on this thread, come by #vigorgeneral on the Freenode IRC. You do not have to register your nick with NickServ to join but it is strongly encouraged to prevent someone from using your nick. If you do not know how to use an IRC client, or want to use your browser, got to The Freenode Webchat and you can join us there.
ROOT
We have root, using the method described by @avicohh, whose guide can be found here.
TWRP Recovery
Edit:
We have an updated 2.8.7.0 TWRP Recovery created by @dirtyhewr, which can be downloaded here. This is new as of 2 Feb 2016.
Exactly one month later, @dirtyhewr has released the NEW and improved TWRP 3.0 image. It can be found here.
Sprint and ATT FlashTool DLLs
@tripptofan gave us the Sprint DLL for the FlashTool, and multiple users can confirm that it works. Here is that DLL. Hyelton's Mirror of the DLL.
The ATT DLL can be found here. Thank @i2andog for that one.
Sprint TOT and ATT TOT
Thanks to @hyelton, the Sprint TOT can be downloaded here.
Thanks to @i2andog, who gave us the ATT DLL, we have a TOT as well for you ATT folks here.
ROMs and KernelsKernel: Dirty Kernel by @dirtyhewr. Flash through Flashify until further notice.
Honorable MentionsA TWRP backup of all partitions other than /data and /cache, can be found here. It is based off ZV5, and only works for Sprint. If someone would like to contribute an ATT version for future use, upload it and I'll get it in the OP. Rooted is preferred.
I also have the ZV6 FOTA update for Sprint. It can be found here.
An added bonus: A-boot image for ZV6 and also the LS885 partition lists by name and block.
Check this OP regularly for future updates.
@DaemeonZane
Thank you so much!!
Anyway to use the flashtool to unbrick the LS885??
So far, no. We need someone to locate the DLL and things for the FlashTool to work. Have you tried to use fastboot to push the recovery to the unit and using my TWRP backup to restore it? I'm not 100% on whether this unit HAS fastboot, but that could be an option.
As soon as someone is willing to dd their stock recovery we'll have a way to reflash the stock back to the device and try to cover any tracks left behind.

How can i flash the TWRP in download mode?
As far as i know LG doesn't have a fastboot mode.....
I have this device... I 100% hate it due to the fact that the stock os sux more than anything I have ever known... it has 4 cpus, so one would think it would be a little fast, but no... wish someone would compile cm for it... I lack the necessary skills, though I have tried. . there is no device tree for it...
another problem faced with this device is the locked boot loader... although I understand theoretically it can be "bumped", should a Rom become available... I'm glad someone at least is trying to get a thread going tho! this is my first LG and will definitely be my last... but until the lease runs out, I am stuck with it...

Here's a way to enable fastboot. It requires root. I realize it says G3, but it does work.

I'm a full time truck driver as well as an on the side certified technician. I won't be home for close to a month, but i synced the CM Repo and have a build environment set up. As soon as I can get back I'll get it rolling. I also have the source for stock and the straight android source. That way i can build a fully stock flashable zip.
Patience, my young Padawans

Sent from my LGLS885 using XDA Free mobile app
I used the method for unrooting a standard LG G3 I found elsewhere to fix an issue with a LS885 that was unsuccessfully rooted, but I have reached an impasse. After the s/w download finishes and the device restarts, the screen shows the number "2" and my computer tries to reconnect and install the LGE Android drivers. The problem is it never installs the drivers to connect again and the flash fails. I'm wondering what I am doing wrong here...
@tripptofan: I saw something on that over at the regular G3. The fix may be the same. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/problem-returning-to-stock-try-t2862463
We share a lot of similarities with other LG devices, especially the G3, but their ROMs won't work for us. Yet. In the meantime I'm trying to talk to a buddy of mine on here to see what he can do to help out with ROM development. Until we get ROMs for this unit and get everything else going, we're stuck using just a thread.

Do we still need the stock software for this model? If so I'm putting it to the drive right now.
NOTICE: IF YOU HAVE COME TO THIS THREAD BECAUSE YOU HAVE BRICKED YOUR G3 VIGOR, FOLLOW THE LINK THAT @DaemeonZane HAS PROVIDED ABOVE!
Using the steps listed above and the stock software and DLL file that should be provided in this thread soon you can restore the LS885 to it's factory settings.
Thanks, Daemeon. Those steps in the link you provided were VERY similar to what I had tried before except for one. Once I put everything in order I got this blasted thing up and running.
Glad I could help.

Everyone, the OP has been updated with the FlashTool DLL for our device. Someone needs to get a backup of the stock ROM without the bloat or root. The sooner we have that the better.

Dont try to flash the kdz, you will brick your device.......................... I never said anything about flashing the kdz................
I learned a long time ago in my G3 days, Kernel deving which I still do for the HTC10 now, but the LG Korean Editions are the same hardware that the T-Mobile Editions use...........
Look on this thread for when I ported the Korean MM rom over before it was released for T-Mobile.......................
When you work with enough kernels like I do, and you should know the kernel is the main part for hardware controlling, you get to understand your device and any device that pertains to it,
The defconfig for the G3 f400 was a perfect match to the defconfig of the G3 D851 -T-Mobile, except F400 had one exra part that didnt make much of a dif........
Out of the 9 variants that LG Put out for the G3 only 1 device came close to the D851 T-Mobile, and that was the f400 Korean edition................
Now do you understand how I know this? Unless LG changed something to keep it from booting on anything other then the intended device, It should boot on our device with the proper extracting and fix
ups.............
Do not flash the KDZ, you will brick your device....................................................... Only 2 parts of that whole KDZ can be used.. and thats boot and system ................
and system has to have some modifications done to it, or playstore will keep crashing.............................
I went though all this on the MM port as well.......... took me 2 days to figure out what it was............................
When I ported the MM over to the T-Mobile Edition, I ran it for 4 days with a few testers, on the 4th day I released it to the public, 45 mins later t-mobile tweeted they are releasing MM that day............
So I know LG/T-Mobile troll this Forum.......... maybe not as much anymore since v20 is surpassed the v10 ..
thank you eliminator for the explanation. i was completely lost and almost bricked my phone.
Could you please mention clearly that flashing KDZ files on DIFFERENT VARIANTS will BRICK DEVICE
It is most important.
THANKS

This is not a rom lol.ive tried booting this using system and boot.of course it didnt work.probably need the 7.0 bootloader too.it doesnt get past lg splash screen.
My kids LG Stylo 2 Plus got Nougat before my V10. Shame
man..... I love the V10 so much I just don't think it got enough public attention to be in enough peoples hands like Devs who could get a bunch of working and stable ROMs. Kinda sad really when this phone is really underrated.

No one needs to hack on this. In a few months time the builds for our versions of the V10 will be released and then hopefully we can use dirty cow to root them the same as we did marshmallow.

LOOKING FORWARD!!!! :fingers-crossed:
In Big red letters....
Do not attempt to downgrade ZVC or brick will occur...
And there is no fix until a ZVC kdz or tot is released...
HERE is what is downgradeable
1. ZVC cannot be downgraded....
2. ZVB can be downgraded to ZV8 no lower..... Or hard brick will occur.
3. ZV7 or lower is unknown by me If anyone else knows let me know and I will change this.....
So please for your own goods do not attempt this. for any reason be it gsm unlock or trying to root . It is all out the door for now no methods available.
And so everyone knows there is no hard brick fix available for the sprint or verizon lg g5s at this time......
So a nice new shiny paper weight.....
Hi, thank you for the warning.
Updated to ZVC, lost GMS too.
I kinda bought my G5 alredy unlocked, thought it was officialy unlocked.
Is it possible? or there is no official unlock from Sprint for G5?
I mean, is there's a point contacting Spirnt support about it?
And one more question, after update would it work with any other CDMA carrier (not sprint)?
Thank you.
