I have an LG Optimus V

so i type everything in the command prompt and when i enter the line where you type in the recovery image name i get the following:

usage: flash_image partition file.img

then when i type in sync.

from this point i expected it to reboot automatically but nothing happened. So i fiddle around with my phone, turning it off, and pushing the home volume down and power button simultaneuously, but i cannot boot into recovery mode.

any suggestions?
