Root Firmware version won't change?

I've been using Miami's VV3 rom and I wanted to try VV4 so I thought if I used the LG update tool then it would change my VV3 to VV4, but I checked my phone and it said ZVA. So I rooted my phone and reinstalled Miami's VV3 rom, but the thing is it still says it's ZVA. I have Quick memo and it feels like VV3, but when I go to the settings and I see the firmware version it says ZVA. Is there any way to fix this?

First of all you have a ms840 not a ms840V so tossin using lg update tool to get to vv4 was a mistake just use sammyz unbrick guide so you can upgrade to vv4 or vv3,5 which ever

This actually doesnt matter with the lg support tool. I have a genuine ms840v from lg. The support tool doesnt recognize ms840v phones and firmware, it always restores to zva.

This is a known glitch with some flashes. They will show a firmware but still show that they are on a previous one. Even though you aren't on that firmware anymore.
