I restored laf.bin and I still cannot get into the recovery and I ran the app again after restoring the laf, should I try going completely back to stock, reroot and then run your program again?

Before this got completely fixed for all variants I was using an apk I have that installs cwm and decided to try flashing a deodexed ROM and it didn't take. I bricked. It will go into download mode and boot to lg logo screen but no further. I've tried the lg flash tool a dozen times its never worked for me. Says "error extracting files". As soon as I click normal web test like the instructions say it starts then immediately says "....... Is not responding would you like to close it "

I'm assuming its not hard bricked. I just need to get the flash tool working. My issue is my phone is my internet thru hotspot. I don't have WiFi at home. I'm sitting in McDonalds parking or using their WiFi right now. Daaaannnnggg g if I had just waited 10 more hours. Lmao. Thats how it goes though. Any help would be appreciated. I also have issue running the flash tool and other return to stock software with no internet access. Sucks man this sucks. The offline method I've read instructions to a " t" and followed but no go. The apk fails. And to top it all off when I was trying to get into fast boot /download mode I must have done the sequence off a little cuz that Korean language (what looks like factory recovery) screen car up and it happened so fast when it selected whatever it did and I'm assuming factory reset. Cuz I can't get in thru adb. So I assume with factory reset comes default no debugging checked.

I went back to stock, rerooted, installed busybox and reran your apk. I get the android with the gears in between the LG symbols at boot but no recovery. I am on Tmobile.

    NOTE: This is only known to work with jellybean currently. This DOES NOT work with kitkat at this time and could even possibly brick your device!!!!!

    Now updated with Bump'ed imgs and works with 4.4 kitkat.

    Okay folks, We finally got things figured out and working and you can now free your LG G Flex. :)
