here the rom with recovery
V20B - CIS from 20 of sept. (custom upgrated bootloader v0.8 - 210mb for fastboot upload)
http://istech.co.id/ronie/20B_CIS.zip
you need
V20B_00.kdz
from archive

enter fastboot - CAMERA+POWER
if you saw a black screen with no logos - you fastboot "

you need to write a command for upload recovery

fastboot flash recovery <recovery_name>.img

http://narod.ru/disk/26369218000/rec...swift.img.html

open recovery - HOME+POWER.

scrolling menu VOLUME UP/VOLUME DOWN, select item SEND CALL, return/cancel END OF CALL.

Ok so I flash the ROM using KDZ Updater = All well and good.

Now I follow your commands to enter this "fastboot business", I get the LG logo come up then it goes to a black screen... So I assumed it was in fastboot?? (not sure what fastboot is lol)

Then I got to windows command prompt I assume u mean? and type the command in pointing it to the android SDK tools folder?

Then I enter the command and it just stays on <Waiting for device> and thats as far as I get? hmm...

ALSO THE PHONE WAS PURCHASED FROM CARPHONE WAREHOUSE WHICH NO MATTER WHAT METHOD I TRY TO ROOT THE PHONE IT DOESNT HAVE IT! Dunno why??

Default My steps.

Try wiping the phone before performing any rooting or flashing. z4Root Worked right out of the box for me. These were my steps:
Install z4Root
Perm Root
Powercycled
Downloaded SuperUser
Downloaded Terminal Emulator
Downloaded Rom Manager
Open SuperUser. ALLOW
Open Terminal Emulato. type SU. ALLOW
Open Rom Manager.
Flash ClockWork Recovery
Boot into Clockwork
Wipe phone.Wipe Dalvik.Wipe cache
Install rom.
Reboot.
Enjoy.

The answer is No, Because the recovery will be in different partition. so u will not loose your ROM if u flash with new recovery.img
