Sorry to break to you, but I don't think there's a solution at this point. I was in the same situation last month and there wasn't a solution through xda. I tried, believe me.

Try your best to wipe your phone and remove root status, and then claim LG warranty. The warranty was rejected the first time (as well as unprofessional not-returning-calls to anybody or picking up the phone), but I posted on their Facebook page and got the "executive" team to contact me. Under a week later, I was sent a new/refurbished phone, box and all.
Most stories of LG warranty are terrible though, so best of luck to you. I dealt with LG Canada.

Can you get into recovery at all? I take it you don't have a Nandroid backup? What rom were you trying to flash?

Did you make a backup of your efs before rooting and flashing roms?

yeah, well, go back to exact situation you made the backup(romversion on phone/etc), then restore it with the tool version you made backup with. it will require you to probably have the efs backup in the location its backed up to. my tip would be to always back it up manually somewhere else as well as remember where you put it.

but if you cant find it you did a lousy backupjob right? How is that warrantee claimable.... ?seems user error to me

I understand that u are a senior men but apparently u don't read my backup is gone I've posted that 3 or 4 times now and I know it not claimable

sorry. then there is not much you can do. There is probably a special way thats not allowed to talk about here. google about recovering imei without backup and lg g2
