Root [UNLOCK] LG L70 Bootloader Unlock

Hey guys, I have unlocked the bootloader successfully, but I am having an issue trying to restore the download mode. I don't think the laf.img was saved on my computer or my phone... I can't find it anywhere. Can anyone help me out here? Is there another way I can get download mode back? Thanks.
You have the 323 yes?

I've tried that method, I can't seem to get into download mode..I tried the key combination and everything.

Here's how it went for me, the second it vibrates stop holding power and hold down UP Volume. That how I made it work, if you try and hold the power while holding volume up. It won't work. Boots everytime that way for me. Not sure if the C Model patched it. Never had that update since the second I got the phone it was already on B and didn't even bother to update.

Ah! Okay I got the usb to work and everything and it says its connected now, from what I understand is that Bootloader is Download mode correct? So If i do this, I can flash back to B. Also I tried the first step and it says something about laf.img

If you really don't wanna risk harming your phone. My friend used this tool to downgrade to B firmware.

You need to root your phone on B firmware install BusyBox, ect. Everything stated in this thread to unlock the bootloader.

Thanks phil :) I will add the generic fastboot drivers for windows in case someone needs them

Ive tried to unlock my bootloader on my d320, now whenever I switch it on, it says

Fastboot init
error allocating memory for ssd buffer
usb init ept @0x7ad1000
udc start ()

Then some port stuffs

The computer recognises my fone as "android" and cant find any drivers nor connect to it, pls help

Thank you for this very comprehensive guide! However I am in need of assistance. I managed to COMPLETELY brick my dad's LG L70-D320 by installing the wrong recovery I think(it was after I installed the recovery that it refused to boot). It is now stuck, won't turn on at all, cannot do anything with it at all. LG User Support Tool tells me that the recovery is already up-to-date so I cannot update(fix, in my case). Absolutely ANY help is appreciated, thanks in advance!
