Getting the recovery to work..help pls

---

Hi guys
Im new on the LG540 (had a HTC HERO before)
And I find the steps for installing recovery very hard to understand :-/
I rootet the phone before, and its confirmed that its rooted..
But I dont understand how to install the recovery even though I'm following the guide from the reference thread...
I have downloaded everything from the thread post 1.
I power off
Then holds Camara+power

But my phone keeps booting up as normally

whats wrong ?

First of all you need to have fastboot enabled on your phone. This is a special boot mode that is disabled by LG. To get it you have to flash your phone with a fastboot-enabled rom. After that, camera+power will put your phone into fastboot and you will be able to flash recovery.
If you're somewhere in Europe, here's the current Europe Open ROM with fastboot:

Okay thanks
And now the next stupid question :-/
On my HERO I flashed new ROMs using recovery
How do I flash a ROM on my LG ?

you can flash custom roms via fastboot or if the developer has made a recovery backup you can flash with that

After alot of googling, I found KDZ_FW_UPD

it got it to work
