Keyboard problem on L90

PLEASE I NEED HELP!
I have a rooted LG L90.
I followed the exact steps in order to install the G2 keyboard but my keyboard is gone!
This happens because I renamed the original LGIMEbin.apk in system/app directory to LGIMEbin.apk.bak.
And it does not allow me to change it back.
I tried several times via apps such as explorer or root browser with no luck.
Can you suggest anything to fix this and finally keep the G2 keyboard?
Thank you!

    Here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39335178 you can find LG G2 keyboard with themes which works on our device.

    Follow this small how to ;)

    1) Download [Thanks to RocketSauce83] and paste it to your SD card.

    2) Install apk
    2a) By default: Installation of this apk will update your original keyboard app.
    2b) If not, rename your original LGIMEbin.apk in system/app directory to something like this: LGIMEbin.apk.bak.
    2c) Reboot and try install again.​

    3) Enable handwrite
    Open build.prop and edit this line:
    ime_handwriting_apply=false
    to
    ime_handwriting_apply=true
    Save changes.
    Reboot

    4) Add other funcions
    Open build.prop and add/paste these lines to bottom/end of the text:
    ime_extend_row_keyboard=true
    ime_onehand_keyboard=true
    ime_split_keyboard=true
    Save changes.
    Reboot

    5) Add emoji
    5a) Download AndroidEmoji.zip [Thanks to RocketSauce83] and unzip.
    5b) AndroidEmoji.ttf paste it to system/fonts directory
    5c) set correct permisions
    rw-
    r--
    r--
    5d) Now go to system/etc directory and open xml file with this name: fallback_fonts.xml
    5e) Scroll down and look for the start of the list with used fonts. It look like this:​
    Code:
    .
    .
    ....That file can also specify the order in which the fallback fonts should be
        searched, to ensure that a vendor-provided font will be used before another fallback font
        which happens to handle the same glyph.
    -->
    <familyset>
        <family>
            <fileset>
                <!--<file>DroidNaskh-Regular.ttf</file>-->
                <file>LG_Arabic.ttf</file>
            </fileset>
        </family>
        <family>
            <fileset>
                <file>DroidSansEthiopic-Regular.ttf</file>
            </fileset>
        </family>
    .
    .
    .
    5f) To top of the list paste these few lines:​
    Code:
        <family>
            <fileset>
                <file>AndroidEmoji.ttf</file>
            </fileset>
        </family>
    Now it will look like this:​
    Code:
    .
    .
    ....That file can also specify the order in which the fallback fonts should be
        searched, to ensure that a vendor-provided font will be used before another fallback font
        which happens to handle the same glyph.
    -->
    <familyset>
        <family>
            <fileset>
                <file>AndroidEmoji.ttf</file>
            </fileset>
        </family>
        <family>
            <fileset>
                <!--<file>DroidNaskh-Regular.ttf</file>-->
                <file>LG_Arabic.ttf</file>
            </fileset>
        </family>
    .
    .
    .
    5g) Save changes.​

    6) Open build.prop and add/paste these lines to bottom/end of the text:
    ro.config.libemoji=libemoji_lge.so
    ro.lge.capp_emoji=true
    Save changes.
    Reboot

    Notes:
    Remember: Always create backups.
    From the attached files you can download my edited build.prop and fallback_fonts.xml files. I´m on V30A original ICS rom. You can paste these two files to correct directories (set correct permisions) if you are on same rom like me. But maybe will works on other roms too.

    Change this line in build.prop from false to true and you'll be able to use hand write too:
    ime_handwriting_apply=true
