Well first you take off all your clothes... oh you want to flash this recovery! That's easy follow the instructions on the first page.
Sweet man thanks.. was a breeze once I figured out I had to use the EMU on the phone itself.. /facepalm 
This is the log from Comand prompt. the phone did not restart and when i do power + Volume and home doesnt bring up anything about back up. just reboot, apply sdcard:update.zip, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partition.
Did i do anything wrong?i have both of the files extracted on the root of the sd card and the phone is rooted
thanks

You don't type the # sign. It should be at the beginning of each new prompt instead of the $ sign. Start over with adb shell, type su at the $ prompt. And look at the phone for permissions
yeah i unzipped the files and i know im doin it rite because i run all the commands in terminal on my phone and when i get to the last step the reboot_recovery command it goes into the custom recovery fine. but once i leave that and turn my phone on and try to get back into the custom recovery its the normal lg recovery
Xionia 125186 shows message not supported on this phone. Unsuccesful. I'm using lg optimus s. My ohone is rooted with ginferbreak what can I do. I need recovery and nandroud backup and want to flash rom. Please help!

Make sure your extracting the zip to the root of your sd card.......should be 2 img. Files

when you open the terminal emulator, make sure you type "su" to get your # prompt first. If not, you will be on the $ prompt.
