I'm following the
hxxp://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Unpack%2C_Edit%2C_and_Re-Pack_Boot_Images
guide to build a recovery.img.
It works fine to edit the ramdisk and rebuild with mkbootfs and mkbootimg. Until I flash it and boot up in recovery it stays on the green android splash and it is not fastboot mode. So I was wondering if there's some more to it. If I need a "--base [address]" or something else.
pls answer

Do you have made following steps, which i have extracted from this thread:

For MAGLDR NAND Boot;
1. Download recovery with partition size for the type of rom you plan on using, see guide below if unsure.
2. Extract downloaded file and load magldr into USB Flasher mode.
3. Run DAF.exe and follow instructions
4. After completed and phone reboots, hold power key and select AD Recovery from list
5. Recovery will now load
____________________
To run the DAF.exe, you must be administrator, otherwise you get an error message.
Before starting and this is the question of samsamuel, you must have the correct partition configuration. You can edit it in the flash.cfg and the information for the entries you can find in the description of your choosen rom

get the your-new-cwm.zip and flash it via cwm, just like flashing a rom. (Assuming the cwm you download is a cwm flashable zip, like the ones HERE)

You don't need to delete the current one.... If it is not in a zip format and is in a recovery.IMG format instead the just use adb and type
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img
And just replace the /path/to <recovery>.img with the location and name of your recovery image and your good

Note 1: This is probably only aimed at developers
Note 2: I have done this with my VS980 with the 12B aboot and it works as intended, but I cannot say for sure if every G2 variant is like this!
The partition /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf is LG's special partition for restoring the device to factory state with the Windows recovery tool. Upon further inspection of this partition, it's just a normal boot image, with a kernel and ramdisk like every boot/recovery image.
Unfortunately, LG decided to remove ways to get into fastboot, and the only way to get into fastboot is to nuke your boot or recovery partition, so that aboot will search for a kernel and when it doesn't find one, it will boot into fastboot. So I got the idea that since the laf partition is just a normal partition to boot kernels from, why not run the command
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf
Which will make aboot fail when attempting to boot from the laf partition, and set the boot_into_fastboot variable to true, and boot into fastboot!
I hope this helps somebody fastboot flash a recovery instead of using LG's proprietary service, which wipes your internal storage on restoration.
Also, I tried installing a non-lokified custom boot image to the laf partition, it still fails with a secure booting error, so aboot checks the laf partition for a signing key :/ but yay, fastboot!
