Steps to flash LG stock Firmware (All models)

Hello everyone! Welcome back. Today, I’m going to discuss on the different steps to be followed to successfully flash stock firmware/ROM in LG smartphones/tablets. Android, being an open source provides the user to have a complete control on almost everything. We can root our device by flashing Custom ROMs and that lets us have some enhanced features on our smartphones.

But having Custom ROMs in our phones or the process of doing that is not easy as we say. One wrong step, and there you will be with your device bricked. In such cases, you should go for flashing stock firmware.

If you are having an LG phone or tablet, you can use the LG Flash Tool to install the official firmwares with .KDZ or .TOT extension to restore your device to stock. In case you’ve been experiencing some serious issue on your LG phone, or you just want to downgrade or upgrade device firmware, the LG Flash Tool is a must-have utility. Now, let’s discuss on the detailed steps to be followed to flash LG stock firmware.

Step 1:

Take a complete back up of data from your device as the flashing always wipes out the complete data from your phone memory.

Step 2:

Charge your Phone at least up to 70-75 %.

Step 3:

Before you connect your device to your PC by USB cable, You should make sure that any Antivirus in your PC is switched off.

Step 4:

Download LG flash tool and install it on your computer, also download and install LG USB driver.

  • Select Type – 3GQCPT or CDMA you don’t want to get worry about selecting this option or that as Flashtool is modified only for devices with SIM.

  • Browse KDZ file (Rom) and Select it. (Locate to “LG flash tool 2014 Folder” There is the copied one)

Step 5:

Download KDZ firmwareon your LG device. Warning: KDZ firmware are different for different LG devices and model as well. A wrong KDZ firmware can brick your device.

Step 6:

connect your LG phone to your computer after turning it off. (usually, by pressing both the volume buttons). After connecting, it must show Download mode with the firmware update screen.

Step 7:

Select the type as CDMA, and then select the downloaded KDZ firmware file and hit CSE flash.
