Flash ZIP in recovery.
So this is now working with the latest sprint update that was rolled out yesterday? Firmware ZVC and has it been tested or done?
Yes this person tried it and it worked.

Is there a guide to restore stock for ZVA? I lost my stock backup, and have to get back to stock, not sure what to do to go back now.

Yes, I can't link the forum right now but do a search on 'How to restore the Sprint LG G3'.
Okay I'll search for it I found one but my phone wasn't listed only zv4 and I don't know exactly what the difference between them is.

If it's LS990, can always start there at ZV4 and then upgrade to ZVA.
This worked great. I just wanted to mention that I had the damnedest time getting this to work until I went into charging mode instead of MTP.
Also worked like a charm for me. I've been rooted since day 1 of bump, probably about a year ago. Past couple of weeks I've had problems with my wifi connecting & dropping. I used lg flash tool & tot restore in hoping it would fix issue. It did not. So I re-rooted using this, piece of cake. Thanks op.

So does this work for zvc or what? The reply with the link on page 3 of tbis thread goes to a 2 page thread. Page one someone links back here saying this works flr zvc. Then you look at last post of pave 2 & person says no this most certainly does not work for zvc.
In my post above, different g3, phone antenna broke, i tot restored etc. This new phone, picked up 3 hours ago, zvc & I hear restoring back could brick device
So I guess I'm asking is there any difference with the zvc on my broken device that I installed by taking OTA's, as opposed to zvc that came already on my new replacement phone thats never been rooted. Or is zvc, zvc

Here we go, of course, i knew id be having issues with a phone already on zvc out of the box, installed the drivers, rebooted, phone usb debugging on, diag mode enabled, charging only, & it fails at stat busybox or something, phone reboots & the interface just goes away on pc. Waiting for replys, hopefully it happens.
Are people just not into rooting anymore, I mean, zvc came out last november, & this is 4 pages long, with a reply from op back in December, yikes

Your BEST option is Q1 and Q2 here.

If you want to try and mess with zvc, then make sure you're "charging only". Disable/unselect MTP when plugging in.
Thanks engine95, i tried the one click & it fails at something about busybox, it just reboots the phone. And the restore to zva, I'd love to, but the op in that thread said he's heard of people bricking device restoring. I restored my old device no problem, got to zvc by ota. Got new phone yesterday from Sprint repair & it was on zvc out of the box

Engine95, here's a screenshot of his reply from the tot restore thread, what's your opinion?

It's been a while since I've done any of this, but here's what I remember.
I've used the tot, and ota to test some things with no problems. I didn't like something about it though so I tot back to zv4 with no problems. Rooted and unlocked zv4 any flashed whatever was current.
I know we can downgrade with no problems as it doesn't blow the qfuse. So unless Sprint has some new unleashed zvc, I don't think there's an issue.
But you never know for sure.
I'd flashtool zv4 if it was me and if there was issue then I'd be forced to flash tool zvc. Sprint is gonna use it to fix your phone anyway if needed.
But that's my opinion.
Appreciate all your advice engine95. I just wish there wasn't an issue with these devices, I mean, $hit, there's already custom roms for G4, but these G3's been a pain since day 1. Waiting for root & all. Thanks again.
