Ive rooted my optimus m and everything but so far i cant install any custom themes because i cant get it in recovery mode. Ive googled and all i have been able to find on the subject is you enter these codes in terminal and you hold the the home and lock and volume button which only factory resets it. Here is a video of what i want to achieve does anyone know how to do it skip to 1:50 to know what im talking about thanksss.

There's a couple of apps as well, I have Quick Boot. I believe they all require root, but you said you already have that. If you have recovery installed (see the link in the thread above) then you just tap the app and it'll ask you if you want to reboot, boot to recovery, turn off and 1 other. It's a nice little app; makes it easier than trying to hold down 3 buttons at the same time. :)
