Clockworkmod Recovery (CWM) + TeamWin Recovery (TWRP) for LG P940 (Prada 3.0)
As we can't modify neither boot nor recovery partition we need use 2nd-init.
This means that the whole recovery resides on the system partition.
For more info see this article about 2nd-init: http://cvpcs.org/blog/2011-06-14/2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works
This is now a fully signed recovery!
We can manually sign the images now (leaked LG RSA keys). This means this installs to the separate recovery partition and is not bound to the installed rom anymore.
You can also flash a custom recovery via fastboot (no prior rooting required)
