Default [Q]Reset Factory Default Firmware

Hi there.. recently i've updated my firmware to v10e.. When i tried a new kernel, it got bootloop and had to divert to latest cwm backup..

Then i realised, the backup cwm is v10d version. When i tried update through LG Updater, the software detects that currently im up-to-date.

So, is there any way to reset the factory default firmware so that i can update? :-?

Current settings:-
- NeoBlaze 120811
- Stock v10d, rooted

I have a similar question...I think.

I want to revert my phone to the original LG rom, I am on FIDO in Canada...

I looked at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1035041

But wasn't sure which one to pick...

so my question is:
how can I revert my phone to the original state that it came in when I got it from Fido?

I think you will have to smartflash an older baseband (pre0725) , then you can use the lg updater.

I also think thats the solution.
By restoring your backup, you mixed two ROM versions. Now you currently use 10d + the baseband from 10e (since CWM backup/restore cant handle basebands) - that's why LG updater doesn't work.

Flash the corresponding BB for 10d, if that doesn't work then returning to 10a and updating from there on might work. (Caution: BB flashing wipes your device, do a nandroid backup before!)
