Root Stuck in Blue Fastboot, please help!

[memar]

Alright, I know, I'm stupid - I was in recovery mode and moronically did the LG Factory reset everyone says NEVER TO DO.

So now I'm stuck in blue fastboot with my optimus V. Can't go back into recovery - it just keeps bringing me back here.

I tried connecting with ADB using my mac.

But when I user terminal and put in:
Users/.../Desktop/android-sdk/platform-tools/adb devices

I get this, followed by nothing.

List of devices attached:

When I plug my phone into the USB of my comp, it says "fastboot: processing commands"...

I was able to get some response using the fastboot command.

fastboot reboot is able to reboot my phone

But when I put in:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(I renamed the recovery file recovery.img)

it says "error: cannot load recovery.img"

I continue to get problems when I keep the original file name, and even when I just try booting the recovery image.

/Desktop/android-sdk/platform-tools/fastboot boot xionia_cwma_12518.6.img
cannot load 'xionia_cwma_12518.6.img'

Desktop/android-sdk/platform-tools/fastboot flash recovery xionia_cwma_12518.6.img
error: cannot load 'xionia_cwma_12518.6.img'


Thank you for any help! I'm really desperate, tried, and frustrated.

You need to read through the Do not factory reset your rooted phone thread. There is info within there to get you started. There are also a number of other thread with this same thing happening.

I've read through tons of threads, but I haven't seen any problems loading the recovery image like I seem to be having. I'll try looking again though.
