Backup all ur useful data using stock recovery on your phone (switch_off--->>>> Power+vol up---->>> recovery)
After recovery wipe your data , reboot
Your good to go .,
{old data would be in your sd card}

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!
When you open freegee just choose your the recovery of your choice. CWM or TWRP. Make sure you grant permission to the app (assuming you are rooted). Once done to get to recovery what I do it turn off the phone and press volume down and power button, once it turns just press the power button 2-3 times to get to recovery.

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.

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.
maybe that's it

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.

I have this same problem and cannot reboot into recovery or fastboot. It always just goes to the screen that says "type password to decrypt storage"
Can some please help.

Whenever you Format /system in recovery Dont Close Recovery(Reboot or TURN OFF)
INSTALL STOCK or CUSTOM ROMS AFTER THAT OR RETORE IT (WITH YOUR BACKUP)
BECAUSE AFTER FORMAT THERE IS NO OS IN YOU DEVICE YOUR MOBILE WILL STUCK ON SONY LOGO ..
IF YOU CAN CONNECT XPERIA S WITH PC ITS WILL EASLY TO YOU .. YOU CAN FLASH
BUT THOSE WHO CAN'T CONNECT TO PC [USB NOT RECONISED, UNKNOWN DEVICE] THEY HAVE TO GO TO REPAIR SO PLZ DON'T TO IT
SO BE ALERT ...!!!!!!!!!

You can always boot into recovery even if You format the /system and reboot. So as long as You have the rom.zip in Your phone, You have no worries as You can always boot into recovery and flash the rom.zip .
Turns out, that is true for locked bootloader since recovery is installed on it using a modification. This doesn't apply to the unlocked bootloader though.
Even i did formatted /system and Power off. When i turned it on ON i cant go in recovery mode
I m still stuck on Sony logo .. now tell me the reason why i m stuck on Sony Logo. I pressed all key volume up or tapping in sony Logo etc etc still cant go in Recovery Mode

Hi,
I was trying to flash STOCK ROM.
After flashing the stock rom, I found that I lost IMEI numbers and bluetooth address.
So, I went back to recovery to flash the rom again, Android Bot with red alert was coming.
So, I used SP tools to flash the ROM again but now with "Format option" including boot loader also.
After that, phone is stuck in Micromax logo and am not able to access anything including recovery.
Pls help. </b>

Use SP tools again to download (flash) complete stock ROM again. This time, use "Firmware Upgrade" option.
To fix IMEI issue, install Android CDC Gadget Drivers and use MAUI Meta 3G tool. Use this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=-CokpIVGPBw
Hi GokulNC,
I tried flashing it but still its the same condition.
When I did a memory test from SP FLASH TOOL, it sayid NAND flash was not detected.

So, if your phone is booting up, it means you can access boot loader menu. Press Volume up+power button and choose fastboot mode. Unlock the boot loader and flash any ROM or Nandroid backup from anyone. Otherwise format all the partitions from ADB and try reflashing the stock ROM using SP Tools

You cannot just say that stock recovery is not working.
To work with stock recovery, you need to hold power button and press volume up bottom top access the options. That's how it works. Moreover, you cannot do much with stock recovery. Its features are limited. In this case, custom recovery helps
Can you tell why misc error comes when we install cmw recovery
