Flashed H901 on H960 - need a comrade to help

Hello all,
In the process of rooting the phone and flashing careless i managed to flash a H901 ROM on a H960 phone. After noticing the horrible mistake i tried to get back to H960 using several methods but to no avail. Here's a list of what i tried so far, followed by what i think i can try next.
1. Tried getting back to stock using this tutorial. LGUP detects my phone as H901 and won't let me flash H960 kdz saying "KDZ file is invalid".
2. Tried using a hex editor on the KDZ file to change any H960 to H901 thinking it might trick LGUP into thinking it is flashing the correct thing. Didn't work either.
3. Tried flashing KDZ file with LG Flash Tool but it says it can't connect to server and stops.
4. Tried updating it with LG Bridge but that also failed (can't remeber the exact error message, but it wasn't anything specific, just something ambiguous about not being able and how i can try to reconnect the phone)

Now, the good parts:
- i still have access to download mode
- have TWRP installed and working

What i think would work is to get a flashable H960A .zip file so that LGUP will see it as it is. Another idea i thought about is to ask any of you who is willing to help me out with a TWRP backup from a H960 model.

If you guys have any other ideas, i'm willing to follow your instructions.


Thank you for taking the time to read about my mess.
