Question recovery help

just did a clean install v20d via lgmdp and then rooted it, thus loosing all the custom recovery (CR)

now here the problem arises...

installed ROM manager and found that it isn't showing the CR for new baseband (BB), just shows for the old one
installed goo manager and found that it still isn't compatible with our device
i found a file "twrp-thunderg-2.0.0alpha1.img" on internet while searching for device compatibility

now what should I do to install custom recovery?

all i have is .img files for both clockwork and twrp. I don't trust twrp coz they still aren't showing official status for our device



update -
i flashed recovery via lgmdp tool
but still, whats with the recovery mess?

He figured out he could also flash a recovery with LGMDP.

The recovery is a mechanism to repair or restore the devices OS. It is also utilized to install ROMs and updates.

sorry, what I meant was regarding the incompatibilities with the recovery. That was kind of you to explain what recovery is.
