Need help! Cant get back to kk base roms - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been on this D801 TMO LP Extreme v1.0 rom since may. I like the rom its really nice but i want to go back to a kk rom. So ii download the 20g boostack and the OptimusG3 Rom V1.4.1 rom. First i wiped....flashed firmware..then flashed optimus rom...o wss stuck in bootloop. Then i flashed the firmwear...wiped...and flashed optimus rom. At the end of that flash it says something about loki failed or something like that and i was stuck in bootloop again. So i ended up flashing 30b bootstack and extreme rom again...how do i go back to kk? Can i get some help here? What am i doing wrong?

You need to first install a KitKat baseband, install the kitKat boot stack, and then you can flash cloudy g3 KitKat.
There is an app around here that let's you change between different bootloaders. Look in the forums and I'm sure you will be able to flash it.

Well....that didn't work. I did everything you said except for flash cloudy g3. Does it only work for cloudy 3g? I tried to flash the optimus rom again with the method you told me to do. I wiped before i did it tho...was i not suppose to?

if you are on the 10o software version on an ATT phone ten yes I would recommend flashing back wit the flash tool if you want to be able to flash roms. There are a lot of people that had the 0o software and had issues flashing different roms

I seriously do not know what else to do. I really enjoy CM11 Nightlies...but I wan't to try something else at least a few other ROMs.
I can't be only one with this issue.
I think my prob is i have a zva rom but no zva radio i never flashed my radio after update so i think mine stuck between two roms kinda in a weird way

Root for 4.4.2

So is any of the devs. Working on a root for 4.4.2.
I know you.can do it via 4.2.2 then update buts that's not I want..
I'm Talking about a rooting stock firmware that's been released. .
One people have said you can on certain. Roms. But unlike Samsung Roms where you have a rooting process for any stock I can't seem to find one for LG Rom...
Sorry wrong thread. .please move to Q&A.

You can root the stock KK ROM, but you just can't have a custom recovery. Although the T-Mobile one has a rooted stock KK ROM with custom recovery available if you follow the directions.
Don't know about other variants.

What I did was I KDZ'd back to 4.2.2, then I rooted that and flashed a custom recovery. With that custom recovery I flashed T-Mobile's official 4.4.2 KK ROM and then flashed SuperU to achieve root on that ROM.
So now I'm running the official TMO KK ROM with root. I have no idea if that same process will work with your phone though since it's a D800, mine is D801. But I would assume it's the same process. Get the KDZ image of the D801 4.2.2 ROM, then you root that and flash TWRP recovery. Then you use that to flash the official KK ROM with SuperU.
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
Use Method 2! That's what worked for me and others. Good luck dude.

Why you will get the 4.4 KK Stockrom. You can use some of the KK custom Roms like Pardus or AICP Rom

The best method according to me would be to flash kk baseband and then flash a kitkat based rom (like cloudyflex , or aosp based )
This way you wont lose root or recovery
