It's not using ROM Manager to BOOT into recovery.
It's using ROM Manager to install ClockworkMod that was the issue.

Very weird indeed. I also have flashed yhe 21E rom from LG. Next I rooted the phone and installed CWM touch. I have no problems with it.

Thanks, either/or this doesn't matter at this stage, I need to able to boot into recover for this or even clockwork to do it anyway. I'll keep this in mind nonetheless.

Try doing the flashing manually. Download the recovery image from www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager (choose touch for P920, nothing else), then open adb in cmd and type the following commands with phone plugged in:

adb push <image name>.img /data/local/tmp
adb shell su -c "dd if=/data/local/tmp/<image name>.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=4096"
adb shell "rm /data/local/tmp/<image name>.img"

Replace <image name> with the filename of the img. If everything checks out, you should be able to boot into CWM. If you get errors, post them here

(I took the commands from The Dark Lestat's batch file, props go to him. I was too lazy to search for it Don't judge me, it's 12.30am here)

All went well, expect for the last string, see below;
I renamed "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.5-p920" - "x"

C:\Users\Astro\ADB>adb push x.img /data/local/tmp

I'm about to upload a newer version of it. Let me know if it works.

Alright.
Here's the new Recovery Manager with updated scripts. It should be a lot cleaner now.

Thank you.

I think it's because my scripts were thrown together in the previous one.
Anyways, it's cleaned up.


Glad it worked!
