The latest Verizon LG G3 46A KDZ is still not available from the carrier. However, developers at XDA, have managed to port the ROM for other Verizon users who are still on the 35B firmware. The stock based custom ROM comes with a recovery flashable zip file with no major changes to the system. So if you have TWRP installed on your device, then go ahead and flash the VS98546A firmware listed in the download section below. However, be sure you have 35B Bootstack on your Verizon G3. And use the 35B only, because others won’t work properly.
Also, before you proceed with the firmware, be sure to backup everything from the TWRP. The firmware goes well with the 35B Bootstack . However, the 46B will soon be available. Once you setup TWRP, flash the Bootstack, if you don’t have it and then flash the firmware. Reboot and you will be on the Marshmallow firmware.
