Well because i can never leave things alone until i get what i want, i ended up soft bricking it again. I flashed the modem from 4.2.2 ATT to the D-FUSE Rom and somehow it wiped my backup and custom recovery, so i wasnt able to restore, or edit the build.prop because it was in a boot loop.
To get out of the boot loop and the cross Dl error this time, i edited the the tot file with HrHex editor to change the hardware ID. once you open the tot file just ctrl+f Find D950 and change it to whatever hardware your device is (just the first instance, no need to change the software version id), use the universal dll file to flash the edited tot.
Once it finished flashing the ATT 4.4.2 tot, i was able to root it with stumproot and install freedom flex recoveries on the stock KK 4.4.2 image.
I am going to attempt flashing the ATT 4.4.2 modems this time on top of the D-FUSE T-Mobile Rom.
If anyone knows the correct sequence of wiping/flashing to get my desired affect of T-Mobile Rom with ATT Modem working please let me.
Also, if these updates are annoying please let me know. I have yet to find a complete place that has all the fixes for these errors. My hope is this helps someone else messing around with these files and getting into trouble.
*******************************************************************************************************************************
I have it resolved, while in the DFUSE ROM, download ES File Explorer and edit the build.prop hardware id to match D950. Turn off phone and leave it off, get your flash tool ready with the tot file loaded and the D950 dll.
If you have already set your com to 41 for the USB port/phone then first hit the arrow for the flash tool to say ready, then put the phone in download mode, and it will start flashing the phone.
Has anyone ever tried to backup EFS and Modem from factory image, than flashing it over the DFUSE ROM?
********************************************************************************************************************
I have the ATT D950 (LG G Flex), i decided against the better judgement of the forum post to flash the DFUSE kit kat Tmobile Rom.
Now i cannot recover using any flash method, including using the D959 dll and the universal dll with the att tot's.
Would someone happen to have a ATT D950 Rom, so that i can flash over what i have now to change the hardware ID from D959 to D950 or does anyone have a sure way of me flashing the tot file with the current discrepancy.

I used the build.prop of D958.
flashed D95820a tot to LS995 and before that I backed up boot and modem from twrp in LS995ZV7.
then after flashing stock tot d958 i rooted, twrp, then restored the boot and modem backup.
NFC isnt working but everything else is.

I recently tried to use MetaMorph on my phone it went through then it rebooted and now its stuck at the motorola logo I want to reflash back to stock but I dont know what Sbf file to use please help me im in trouble right now.
did you not create a nandroid backup prior to applying a metamorph theme?
should always do that.
as for what .sbf, just flash a new rom, i doubt you need to flash a .sbf
but even if you do have to, just flash any .sbf, then root, recovery, flash rom, just make sure you got the right baseband
I've noticed a few people looking for Thrill/O3D firmware/baseband for reverting back to stock.
Here are a few KDZ file links for it.
I used a tutorial found here.

It is also possible that AT&T told LG not to put the kdz file up on their server. I know certain phones that that do not have the stock image allowed to download.

I think that's more likely. Plus I'm actually trying to get stock for as many different 850 UMTS devices since were the redheaded stepchild. I want to try my best for you guys. ;-)

And this is why my next device will be unbranded. I'm not dealing with the shaft again. I'm going to deliver it. I'm going to keep my Thrill for Development, but I'm going to get a Galaxy Tab 7.7 since it supports voice. (And 850 UMTS from the box)

ok. We need ANYONE from brazil with a device that has or was going to update to the Brazil V20a to enter the following link and get us the bin format link back as the bin format firmware is what we need to get JUST the baseband. Elsewise we may need to flash the WHOLE firmware and bin flash downgrade to root and recovery partition. I'd rather not put more people through this headache....

I am from brazil... but i have P925 AT&T and i ca't update using brazil login on LG software...
can i help anyway?
If you have a friend with the unbranded p920h, yes. Otherwise we're unfortunately in the same boat with a missing paddle. :-\
Sorry for the double post, but If you flash the V21A euro over it you get the euro baseband. So, we're either struck without root (unless we can convince some root gods to visit us), be lucky enough for an LAM exploitable firmware or have a euro GB bin for the V21A fall into our laps (we could flash it over the V20A LAM). Ugh....
Edit: Note, I'm decent at kernel building but not good at the base level stuff such as rooting. I wish I was....
tell me what file you need?? i download a lot of files and keep in my pc, maybe i have the file that we need.
From what ive read and tried you have to get the cab file from the kdz then open the wdb file but there is no way to open it all the lg utils things require a inf_webdnld.dll that our cab file does not have. I spent most of yesterday trying to open it with no success. But in that wdb there should be files that make up the bb we need
LG Thrill 4G on O3D GB
Exactly. We actually need at this point the bin zip as it had the bin and fls files. Though through downgrading and upgrading, I have a feeling the LAM GB baseband is similar to the froyo basebands. I've bin downgraded and it works with froyo, the LAM GB but not euro GB. I'm also working on the back end with someone on a possible V20a root as well.
any luk wit te bin zip???
Have u tried rooting v20a with superoneclick 2.3.3
LG Thrill 4G on O3D GB
No luck. Tried. Reaching out to someone else to see if there are alternatives.
Hello everyone, I know post are existing in the development section for this but I think I may have a way to get 4G speed on p925(g) (rogers optimus 3d and at-t lg thrill) combined with root.
EDIT #2: If kdz flashing worked for you but isn't working anymore for no reason, please read this before asking : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22023493&posted=1#post22023493 lg effers blocked the acess to kdz flashing since their last version updater
I'm not a pro Dev but mods will be happy, before posting I READ and try to post something usefull.
As I was searching a way to get a better bb for my rogers optimus 3d I found many interesting things but all were uncomplete.
1. The LG Optimus 3d seems to simply be a LG thrill (don't be fooled by the G in P925G it seems many ppl are just ommiting the G to do shorter)
2. This post : forum.xda- developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449021
(pull off the two spaces after xda-)
Showed me that there was a working stock gingerbread ROM from Brazil that is having the right frequencies to give 4G on rogers (tested by myself and it's a GO!) and on at-t.
The only problem with this rom is that currently There seems to be no way to root it (not even the latest superoneclick 2.3.3 can do it).
So basically it's not that bad because you've got the choice of getting STOCK GINGERBREAD WITH 4G SPEED ON P925 by flashing v20a kdz (follow first link)
But many of us want to get further. ROOT + 4G is almost a requirement for a phoen to be respected according to me and many other.
So acording to the post there is 4 THEORETICAL ways to get root + 4G on a p925
1. Follow the instruction in the post, and if you're one of the lucky bast**ds for who the second kdz installation doesn't push the european bb well you're good to go but even after 5 times repeating the process the bb was always getting flashed.
2. Get the superoneclick guys craking, so we can get Root access on the brazilian ROM
3. Get who knows who cracking the brazilian or european kdz file to isolate the bb (from brazilian) or the ROM (from european) and then flash them in the according order to get a rootable ROM + the brazilian bb together (we know they are compatible since bast**ds from #1 are still getting data).
4. Install only the ROM from someone who would post an european .bin (without bb) of v21a to be installed over the full brazilian kdz.
So basically i'm widening the call for this .bin file search but I think there might be another way!!!!
I've seen phones reacting different ways when combining a froyo baseband on a gingerbread ROM.
a. the phone bootloops
b. there is no signal but phone boots fine
So basically if the p925 is doig b. it would be possible at the place of searching a v21a bin (that seems hard to find) flash a rootable froyo bin . So I'd like to know if any of you still have one of the rootable bin that were found in this post : forum.xda- developers.com/showthread.php?t=1246678
I would have already tried for myself but since megaupload closed fileserve does not support share anymore....
So if someone could provide me with
a. one of the rootable .bin file in this post :
forum.xda- developers.com/showthread.php?t=1246678
and I'll tell ya if it's a WIN or if we have to get back craking!!!
b. Tell me if this workaround fits:
1. Flash V20a brazil kdz (found here forum.xda- developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449021
2. Flash a rootable froyo .bin using this method
forum.xda- developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490
3. Root the froyo ROM
4. Install CWM
5. Flash a gingerbread rom made for p920 NOT FOR p925
6. TELL US THE RESULT!!!
BE SURE TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING BEFORE FLASHING KDZ AND BIN FILES... I'M NOT RESPOSIBLE FOR ANYTHING HAPPENING TO YOUR PHONE. BUT IF AS ME YOU GOOGLE AND READ YOU'LL PRETTY MUCH ALWAYS FIND A WAY TO UNBRICK... DON'T ASK I WON'T DO THE GOOGLE FOR UNBRICKING YOU!!!
so I know it's a long post but.. I prefered to go into details and expose my point right with all the sources article
Good luck to all and KEEP ON CRAKING!!!

Ill see if i still have the rootable .bin froyo tonight when i get a chance if you wanna do that nd let me know how it goes cuz im curious

try that out its the thrill froyo bin
Does not work. It still restores the froyo baseband. If you delete the baseband from the folder the flashtool won't work at all.
I don't think that's going to happen yet
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
You can flash just the .bin file i thought
Thrill 4g on O3D
I couldn't it just kept saying error in the lgflashtool. With the fls and bin in the same folder it flashed but replaced the radio in the process.
Hmm i wish i had time to get on the comp and try this on mine right now

I'm going to try it when I get home, and i'm going also to try with a blank .fls file just to see if it flashes nothing.
Don't know if it's my windows 7 environment but i'm getting some trouble even before the software trying to flash... I enter the .dll file then the .bin without the .fls and when I click ok the program automatically crashes... Any idea what it could be so that I can try to flash the froyo bin over my v20a baseband?
Are you running as admin?

Hi,
I upgrade to 906 then downgrade to 890 by using 1 click SBF method work like charm, but I can't install XT883 get error RSD lite in first step FAIL ? I think this method help to downgrade but not completely that's why I can't flash XT883 ROM. Before upgrading to 906, I can easily flash XT883 ROM with RSD lite 5.6.
And also saw this thread but I can't understand the XML coding part I'm totally new.
Can body just help me to flashing XT883, So I can run both network CDMA and GSM because there is no other ROM which can run both network in my knowledge
Close the thread issue solved myself
no need to close the thread, maybe you want to share, how you solved the problem or people with a similar issue will come along.
@NIGHTMARE-
Please help me out. I want to flash XT883 ROM on 906.
Thanks.

Hello, I have flashed XT883 on XT862 successfully through the following steps.
(1) Apply 1-Click flash to downgrade from .906 to .890
(2) Download MOTO XT883_ROM 2.3.6-SLNCT-60.3.250.zip. Unzip it to a folder 'A'.
(3) Unzip the 1-Click flash to another folder 'B'.
(4) Copy the content of folder 'A' to a new folder 'C'.
(5) Copy boot, cdt, recovery of folder 'B' into folder 'C' >> Replace them.
(6) Reboot into Fastboot. Check your Fastboot version is 0A.53.
(7) Flash using the XML in folder 'C'.
The screen will reboot and it will take between 10 - 15 minutes to get up.
Once up, leave the Network as 'Global' or 'CDMA'. Do not choose 'GSM'.
Go to APN and set your operator settings.
That's it!
The above worked for me. Unfortunately the network is unstable. It often switch down my 3G and remains in 2G network. Frustrating.
If someone knows how to remains in 3G network. Kindly shared with us!
I've been searching and searching for either file and I've got nothing but dead links. The one file I did find is bad and failed to write in Odin. It's been a long time since I worked on this phone and it's currently on 4.4.2, NC2 and it's not able to receive calls after unlocking and switching carriers...so my one thought is to flash the modem file. The phone is rooted but Safestrap is not installed. Going from NC2 up to what's currently available seems very daunting and there are many conflicting instructions on how to go from one version to another.
So, does anyone have a good link to either of the mentioned files? I've been looking for Odin files but I'd install Safestrap (if I can find the right one) and flash in recovery if that is the way to do it.
Or is it possible to update 4.4.2 to 5.0? What are the best instructions? I've spent four hours researching and it's just not obvious what I can or should do. I just want the phone to receive calls.
Safestrap is installed but won't work. Installed reinstalled busybox, etc. No love.
Found this, finally. https://mega.co.nz/#F!wg5wRQrQ!vR7a6pze9dgSWjbaRSyhWA. I flashed the modem but there is still the same problem. Did unlocking break the phone? I'm going to go ahead and download the whole stock ROM and try that next.
