[Q] rooted, but freegee doesn't give me option to unlock, where to go?

I've got my OGP rooted, and I installed FreeGee as recommended by many; however, freegee doesn't give me any options to "disable lge security" or "unlock boot loader" as many tutorials point out.

What I get with freegee is:
device name: LG optimus g pro
device model: LG E980
Software version: E98010g
"backup EFS"
"Restor EFS"
"CWM 6.0.4.6"
"TWRP 2.6.3.3"

and via menu:
settings
update loki in zip
reboot recovery
reboot bootloader
shutdown

......

That's all. No "disable lge security" like I see in this video: I'm to new to post a link. . . youtube video of e980 with "disable lge security" as an option.
Or the option to unlock the boot loader I've read in some tutorials.

So. . . where do I go from here? I would like to be able to safely flash a custom ROM.
I tried this freegee CWM once before and ended up in a boot loop, and ultimately security lock on start up and had to restore back to original via soft brick fix. . . would like to avoid that again

Thanks!

Thanks

Thanks stulzerl for the reply.

I was working my way through the 33 pages on the freegee thread. . . little confused on the lge security — dev stated everything white listed but also has uploat boot.img, which I've no clue

So. . . I guess I'm good without that step and I'll just attempt cwm again with beanstalk. Finger crossed.

CWM worked

Thanks again. . . TWRP didn't work — touch screen would only work on a couple items. CWM worked fine. Backed up and installed Beanstalk ROM.

maybe that's it

I remember when I used Freegee, it didn't give me an unlock option either but after i installed CWM through it and rebooted, I got the unlock successful security error which means it did the unlock automatically.

I don't remember just rebooting after installing freegee. . . installed a ROM right off. Nonetheless, all seems to be working properly. :laugh:


for anyone who wants to know: I would get locked into a boot loop with CWM when booting into recovery from power off. I found that madmac's lokified TWRP doesn't have this problem.
