Factory reset and try again. If it dont work, you have to use the lg upgrade tool in windows

You still need a custom recovery. I'm going to assume you already have the drivers, so this should be simple. Plug your phone in, and download/extract this to a folder

ADB-Recovery

Open that folder, and right click while holding shift in the empty space
select Open command window here
Type adb reboot bootloader
Your phone should be on a blue screen
now, in the cmd, type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

It should send, and write, and it should say OK.
If it says waiting for device, the drivers are not installed, but if you did the guide, they should be.

Once that is done, and it says OK, pull the battery, and boot your phone with the SEND+MENU+END button combo, and voila! you have a custom recovery!
Then you may go ahead and use the USB-MS Toggle feature to mount your SDcard and place the ROM of your choice on it, and flash away!
Remember to wipe everything first though!
Hope this helps you!
