[NOOB] Update LG G2 D800 to Kitkat - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know this might be stupid question but I don't have any experience in flashing etc.
So I have LG G2 D800 with 4.2.2 Software version D80010q, I want to update it to kitkat.
Do I need to Root , install recovery or can I achieve it by download kitkat stock firmware and flash it with LG Flash tool?

[Q] D800 TWRP Flash issue

Okay, so i had a LG G2 Pre-rooted since i bought it and i unrooted it, i updated to kitkat LG UI only to realize that i am more fond of stock KitKat CM11/CarbonROM, so i flashed the d800 ATT LG G2 which(Worked before i updated to kitkat) and now it gives me a binary error while flashing, it simply gives up trying.
Binary issue: 7 [Device must be [d800/gilpa] , your device is [d800].
I'm so confused , is the KitKat Update from LG Screwing things up or?!? How do i fix this?
Thanks, and if this has been posted somewhere else, sorry..
Longstory short: Updated KITKAT OTA, Didn't like it, Downgraded back to JellyBean, Installed TWRP, AOSP don't flash...
EDIT: SOLVED: D800 Flash the updated recovery zip

you said you unrooted and update to kitkat so where are you right what version are you on and are you rooted or not and what d800 g2 are you trying to flash also have you tried flashing to stock jb(4.2.2) rooting and installing recovery then trying to install the rom?

SOLVED:
I wasn't informed that i needed to flash the TWRP 2.7.0.0 from the custom recovery installer.
I simply flashed this in the recovery and everything works now.

[Q] Installing KK Bootloader - what is my D802 version?

I've been wanting to install CloudyG2 v3.3 to my D802 and I figured that I'll have to flash KK bootloader.
Where can I find my current D802 rom version (30a?30b?etc...)? - I understand that I need 30a/30d to install the AutoRec KK bootloader.
Should I event try to find it, or can I just flash the latest one? I'm a little bit confused...
P.S - Yes, I've read the D802 NOOB manual.
Cloudy should work on a LP bootloader too as I have an d802 and was running Cloudy.
I recommend using the LG Mobile Support Tool to upgrade to the latest ROM. Then, use the OneClick 802 recovery and root tool to flash TWRP and Cloudy. This is what I did for my 802.
