There is no Stock Recovery, you will need to flash your entire image for your carrier. Look through the link below, this should do it for you to bring you back to Stock.

Yes I have, that is why I would suggest it. I will never suggest a method or app unless I had tried it and found success with it.

KERNEL screwed my phone!

Ok, first of all, my phone model is i9505 (Samsung Galaxy S4 International version).
I installed last week a new kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297379 on my phone.
Today I tried to install the cyanogenmod 10.2, now the recovery edition of PhilZ Touch says everytime that there is a prob i9505G etc, which I don't understand.
I think the kernel changed my phone number to i9505G, someone who can help me with this? Thanks.

Yeah sure, just installed stock firmware 4.3 so nothing editted, PhilZ CWM recovery and that's it.
Since the kernel it won't install cm10.2 anymore so yeh...
Nothing much to explain, I don't know why this happens to me, my model number jftlexx is correct but in recovery it gives a bunch of errors with i9505G and the model name of it, forgot it I think it was like jgdlet or something.

i found this after reading cm10 that you need to install a compaltible recovery for this "Make sure you have the LATEST version of ClockworkMod recovery. Other recoveries may work but will not be supported by CyanogenMod" either you use a Clockwork recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397108 or you can try it with TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468187 and make sure the file you download is not corrupt, please check the Hashcheck that u got the proper file.

Do you guys honestly think your posts have enough information to be able to help? We need more information, For example what guide was you following as there are multiple. What recoveries have you tried were they thought the right variant? etc. etc. etc.

I realize this now after i made my second post of bricking my phone,
I did get recovery to work. The 2.6.3.5 i was using isn't loki'd so i went to down to the 2.6.3.2

Make sure you grab the right twrp file for your device. make sure you have your loki file in the ADB tools folder.
Use this Guide and it should work like a charm
i recommend changing the name of your TWRP '.img' to 'recovery.img' so its easy to type in the command window

Great, I'm not sure sorry. I haven't looked in to LG G2 development that much since i got this phone a few months ago, i just flashed a 4.4 AOSP ROM and that is about it, Glad you got it working and sorry i couldn't help.

As loki ist patched in Kit Kat, for a custom recovery to work you also have to use the old 4.2.2 boot loader and a modified kernel to work with that. I read that the app freegee will do that all for you

Its been a while since I installed it myself but from what I remember, I believe it only worked if it was flashed over the stock g2 kitkat (or jellybean) rom. I've never really used bootstacks myself so I don't really know which one to go for, however I'd assume you could start by looking for ones made for kitkat.
Personally, I would do a clean install of the stock kk rom, reroot, flash custom recovery, and then install cm11.
