Root Unbrick/Unroot LG Mach

Hi,
I am desesperate. I reboot my NEW phone and it does not boot due to a verification error (morning call error). I deleted google video (before seeing this thread).
I hope to repair this by unbricking it but I cannot access to the dll file. Or if you have another solution.

Can you please restore the link?

Thanks !!!

PS: I also noticed that the firmware link is ZV7 but it actually download ZV8, is that a problem to root the phone again?


EDIT: THANKS to Sammyz it works !!! The dll can finally be find on http://tool.xcdn.gdms.lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=CT109871648442116484421/[LGFLASHv141]LGLS860_20120928_Download.zip
Flash Tool says download fails at 99% but it seems to be normal and my phone is totally functionnal.

EDIT 2: Like many people this brick came from deleting a system app. A lot of people are looking for apps you can safely delete but it does not exist. To do it you have to be root and use link2sd (free on the market). Here you can manage your apps. Right click on the app you want to uninstall: if it says "Warning!!! Some system apps..." do not do anything, otherwise try to uninstall. If it safe link2sd will uninstall the app, if it is not link2sd will say it cannot uninstall it.
This way you can delete system app safely. Enjoy!
Note: to root the lg mach (ls860) use motochopper [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40747604]
