Just to be clear, this isn't an unbrick guide, this is a guide to flash the stock firmware. It will completely wipe your device and flash the original (out of the box) firmware.
The XDA thread is a bit more thorough and has pics as well (it's what I followed for mine):
LG G2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) | LG G2 | XDA Forums

Couple things you might add to the guide is you need both a tot and dll for LG Flash Tools. Also need to be using com41 port.
