Here are all the current KDZ files for flashing Your LG V10 Back to Stock!
Will Be adding Firmwares as I get them, Give me a little time to fix up the guide a little as it WILL be the SAME method as the G2 and G Pro, G Flex, Etc. KDZ's & TOT's HERE


NOTICE! - IF you download fails or does not download all the way USE A DOWNLOAD MANAGER!, Files that are usually over 1GB browsers have issues downloading them especially if you have a slow connection.

First Off Not Responsible if you flash the wrong one!!!!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

LGUP Method flashes both KDZ & TOT files:
Thanks to @shakeyabooti for LGUP!

Download LGUP from HERE
Install the file with the DLL name in them first and then LGUP_Install_Ver_1_14_3 Then copy the folder "common" to C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model (this should resolve unknown error)
Make sure you have downloaded the required KDZ file MM or LP
Open LGUP on your computer "make sure your phone is plugged in"
ARE YOU HAVING TROUBLE WITH LGUP NOT SEEING YOUR MOBILE?
Try this....... take the back off your mobile so you can get at the battery. Connect your mobile via USB. Start LGUP, if it does not see your phone DO NOT DISCONNECT, DO NOT RESTART OR TURN OFF LGUP. Take out the battery and then put it back in.......let the phone restart on its own. LGUP should now see it.

LG Drivers: All Others - HERE Verizon - HERE


TO DO A FULL WIPE AND INSTALL MM - Open the LGUP on your computer. FILE PATH point it towards the MM KDZ.
IMPORTANT!!!!!!! shut down LGUP!
Now open LGUP again - you will notice that the MM KDZ will still be showing in the FILE PATH section. Select REFURBISH and make sure BIN file is ticked. Press Start. Make cup of tea and be patient

TO GO BACK TO LP FROM MM - Open LGUP on your computer, click on FILE PATH and point it towards your LP KDZ. Close LGUP and re-open LGUP. Make sure you select REFURBISH this will do a FULL wipe, tick BIN file. Press Start. Make cup of tea and be patient​

Hi,
I bought my V10 at expansys australia, and the version is H961N Dual Sim,
but the software version is v10b-SEA-XX instead of v10b-HKG_XX, I believe it is a singapore version.
Any one has the v10b-SEA-XX kdz file?
or
Is that compatible to flash v10c-HKG-XX on my Singapore version of V10???

These .KDZ files look to come from the LG site although I have not been able to verify them or test flashing them yet.

All my kdz files come from LGs site that are on all my guides. :) I also have KDZs that are no longer available as well for other models.

Did you drag that window over?? That's normal. That message is supposed to come up.. In most cases when you drag it over you'll see it's actually flashing. It says that because there's not as it's not needed. But you should be using LGUP not the older flash tool
