Root [TMobile] FU**-UP of the century - Uninstalled my OS

[Dark_Necromancer]

First of all, I have an LG Optimus F6 from T-Mobile, and I promise I'm not normally this stupid.

I used this video to update my phone to a KitKat ROM, because why not?

I've been using Link2SD to link all of my apps to my External SD, and the whole thing has worked like a charm. I recently tried to install Leo's Fortune from the App Store, and I kept getting this error "Insufficient space on the device". No such thing, the app only took up 44 MB of space, and I had 100 MB on my internal storage, let alone 7 GB on the first partition of my external SD and 20 on the second. Now, this error is showing up every time I try to install or update any app.

I shut down the phone and booted into TWRP, and selected wipe, but I noticed it didn't wipe the internal store.

"I know", I thought "what if the problem is somewhere on the internal storage?" So I went into advanced wipe, checked all the boxes, and swiped.

Idiot.

Of course, now my phone won't start, but I can still boot it up into TWRP. I loaded all of the files onto my SD card, and tried to install them with TWRP, but now I get a "failed" error when I try to install the port.

Is there even remotely anything I can do at this point?

Likely you've pretty thoroughly screwed the pooch. Probably the quickest, simplest way to dig out of this with a shred of dignity is to just start over from scratch.

As for the problem that started this, probably 100MB was not enough space for installing a 44MB app, which is a large app and would have left at most 56MB. Why is that not enough you ask? Because it may unzip to a larger size, or more likely, because the OS always maintains enough empty space for safe operation. Safety cushsion space for temp files, cache files, log files, etc. so the OS doesn't get into a unusable condition.

What exactly do you mean? Like I said, I have the ROM and I can still flash files with TWRP, but is there any place where someone has stored the original OS files?

I would install the entire ROM fresh rather than trying to replace individual files.

That's what I did. I have the ROM from the original video [I provided a link] but I keep getting an installation error.
