Is you phone rooted?

You absolutely have to have root permission.

ok few more questions, you have the lg drivers installed?

you have the flash file on the sd card how did you put it there?
Also you have to have the recovery file there as well, you need 2 files
and use the all in one recovery, joneidy's was great but the all in one is more refined and does a better job.

if you need more help pm me
