Did I brick it?

I just rooted my Koodo LG optimus one with the instructions provided in the following link,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001713
I then bought the premium version of ROM manager from the android market and hit backup ROM.
The s/w asked me for the backup name as in the photo,
http://www.appbrain.com/app/rom-manager-%28premium%29/com.koushikdutta.rommanager.license
Then, LG logo started flashing and for more than 30 mins. I pulled the battery out and restarted it again. LG logo shows up and the screen goes blank.
Could you help me how do I fix this?
Should I repeat this...
Download KDZ updater
Install msxml.msi from the uncompressed directory
Conect your device (do not turn on disk storage) and run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe (Has administrator).
Select Type : 3GQCT
Select PhoneMode : DIAG
In KDZ file : Choose the ROM file you downloaded in the first step
Press Launch software update and wait (It will be 10 minutes or so). In your phone it will appear "Emergency mode". Wait until it reboots.
UPDATE: Did the above, it solved the problem...

[Q] Downgrade LG P500 to Telus 2.2

I tried to downgrade LG P500 from 2.2.1 to 2.2 by following these steps.
Install msxml.msi from the uncompressed directory
Conect your device (do not turn on disk storage) and run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe (Has administrator).
Select Type : 3GQCT
Select PhoneMode : DIAG
In KDZ file : Choose the ROM file you downloaded (V10G_00.kdz file)
Press Launch software update and wait (It will be 10 minutes or so). In your phone it will appear "Emergency mode". Wait until it reboots.
The phone never rebooted. When I manually try to reboot, it comes to Android screen and never gets past it. Has anyone faced this issue?
Thanks.

FIRST TRY TO PRESS THE POWER BUTTON FR FEW SECONDS WHEN ITS SHOWING THE ANDROID SCREEN IF IT LOAD STHEN ITS FINE ORELSE TRY THIS

[Q] How to unroot bricked tmobile g2x

Hi i'm new to the forum but i have a question. First I have searched the net for hours looking for an answer before posting so if there is already a thread on this somewhere i have no clue how i missed it.
Ok here is the question. I used the LG support tool to try to update my phone to gingerbread but 5% in it stopped responding. After it closed my phone was stuck on the "S/W Upgrade" screen. I tried every method i saw on the net to recover it but none worked. I'm sending it back in to tmobile but since the phone is rooted i'm worried they will just void the warranty and make me pay for it. I have no idea how they know a phone is rooted so i'm not sure how to undo it. I cant use super one click since the phone wont load. I can still access clockwork mod recovery and even flash images but it still loads up to the S/W screen and stays there.I can also mount the usb,data,system and cache on my pc to access files. Anyone have any idea how I can unroot the phone or delete what i need to to avoid detection? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Have you NV-Flashed it to stock? If not, that explains how you bricked it.

This is how guy zgjbeta unbricked his phone. You could try it.
How to unbrick your G2x from GB update through LG
******UPDATE FIXED THE PHONE THIS IS WHAT I DID************
As many have stated, pushing the v21E_00.kdz via the KDZ_FW_UPD program does work. It's just touchy.
This is a step by step guide to get you back in to working shape.
Note: You MUST do this via a PC running Windows XP. Running Vista/7 in compatibility mode is not going to work, period.
Part 1: Download the files you will need below.
V21E_00.kdz
KDZ_FW_UPD_EN
One-Click-G2x-recovery-flasher-06-16.rar
LG USB Drivers G2x
Part 2:
1) Install the LG G2x USB drivers to your WinXP machine.
2) Extract the entire contents of the One-Click recovery in to a folder and keep it handy.
3) Remove the battery from the phone. Hold both volume buttons and plug in the USB cable. If you are asked for a driver, look in the APX folder where you extracted the One-Click recovery archive.
4) Run OneClickRecoveryFlasher.exe and flash the stock recovery. Wait for the process to finish and close all windows and unplug the phone.
5) Put the battery back into the phone and turn it on. Now plug the USB cable back in to the phone. If everything is up to snuff you should have no driver problems at this point.
6) Extract KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.7z in to a folder. Inside is a msxml.msi. You need to run and install this first!
7) Run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe.. Leave the type set to CDMA and the phone mode set to DIAG. DO NOT CLICK ON "Read phone information"
8) Click the folder icon and load the V21E_00.kdz
9) Click launch software update (and pray!)
What you will see:
The log window will immediatly show:
22:41:02 : Launching SW update
22:41:02 : Unpacking KDZ
Then it will stop for a while.
After this you will most likely see:
22:41:16 : KDZ file extraced
22:41:21 : Files were extracted.
22:41:21 : LGMobileDL Load.
22:41:21 : Port = 5
22:41:21 : Connecting to phone
22:41:33 : Check Phone mode = 1
It will pause again before you see:
22:42:08 : Phone type check.......
22:42:08 : LGMobileDL.DLL Loading....
22:42:08 : _SetAuthMark Fail
22:42:08 : AuthMark°¡ Á¤È®È÷ Phone¿¡ Write µÇÁö ¾Ê¾Ò½À´Ï´Ù!
22:42:08 : _SetAuthMark Fail
22:42:08 : LoadCDMAPhoneData() Error
22:42:08 : _DetachDLL Call
22:42:08 : _DetachDLL Call End
22:42:08 : Param : Path = C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\LGMOBILEAX\Phone\V21E.wdb
22:42:08 : Param : moduleDir =
22:42:08 : Param : waitTime = 33000
22:42:08 : Param : UsbHighSpeed = 0
22:42:08 : Param : PhoneMode = 1
22:42:08 : Param : BinVersion = V21E_00
22:42:08 : Param : AuthMark = 0
22:42:08 : Call fn_StartUpgrade
Finally after another pause you should start to get spammed by the following message:
22:42:41 : CDMA: wParam = 2007, lParam = 0
22:42:41 : Model Dll Msg Not Found(2007, 0)
You will even hear the USB disconnect/reconnect sound several times.
The sound and spam will continue until the lParam counts to 100.
It should look like:
22:46:25 : CDMA: wParam = 2005, lParam = 100
22:46:25 : Model Dll Msg Not Found(2005, 100)
22:46:25 : CDMA: wParam = 2001, lParam = 0
22:46:25 : Model Dll Msg Not Found(2001, 0)
After it gets to 100, your phone will reboot to the LG logo before going
blank. After a few moments of the blank screen you will get the TMO G2x splash before being dropped back in to your working phone.
Be patient as this takes a while. If at any point the program freezes for more than a few moments, it's most likely going to fail and you will need to try again.
Hope this helps. =)
Thanks to everyone who helped figure this out.

Yes i did Nvflash it and i tried the steps in your second post first. I cant get the kdz to find my phone for some reason. It serches port -1 and then says it isnt found. if i choose the last option and input 5 for the port number it sees the phone but the program crashes. I tried port 5 because in the text of what kdz should say it finds the phone on port 5.
"After this you will most likely see:
22:41:16 : KDZ file extraced
22:41:21 : Files were extracted.
22:41:21 : LGMobileDL Load.
22:41:21 : Port = 5
22:41:21 : Connecting to phone
22:41:33 : Check Phone mode = 1"
When I go to load the phone up it goes right back to the S/W update screen. No matter what i do i cant get that to stop coming up. Is there some way i can ,ake it see the right port from cdma mode?
Thank you for the answer anyway. I have seen for other phone models that there is just a file you can flash from the sd card that unroots phone but seen nothing like that for the g2x... is that possible or am i mistaken?

I dont know cause I still did not update, so I am not familiar with all things that might come up. Here is the entire thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1180331 perhaps sone of these folks have similar problem.
I suppose they will come up with some way to make it flashable but the update is only out so it takes time for developers to make something.

Any idea what tmobile looks for when they check for root? maybe i can just eliminate all trace of it and send it in for service.

While maybe it would be different with a newer phone, I've sent in an old phone that was rooted for a replacement and it was fine. This was back with a MT3G, but they sent me a new one, and I just sent back mine which was stuck in a boot loop with no way of bringing up recovery.
They never contacted me or anything so i think it was fine.
Edit: Realized I forgot to actually say, I don't think they check.

thanks for the reply danish. Im just hoping im not one of the unlucky ones. Lg updater broke my phone it had nothing to do with me rooting so i could use titanium backup to protect my unstable piece of trash g2x. i definitely dont want to have to pay for it.

You may want to go back and read that again buddy. It was bricked by the official LG updater tool. Nothing much to do wrong. You download the client, connect the phone, then run. Go forth and necro troll someone else's thread.

LG Optimus Me P350 stuck in emergency mode

Hello! I tried to update my LG Optimus Me P350 with KDZ Update tool, but the update was unsuccesfull and now the phone is stuck in emergency mode. I can't use any combination of buttons, even when i connect to my pc, this thing remain stuck in emergency mode. What can I do?

Same for me :-(

I found a solution and it's working:
1.Download KDZ updater and uncompress it
http://www.4shared.com/file/UleS4dP3/KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.html
2.Install msxml.msi from the uncompressed directory
3.Charge your battery to almost full state (I'm not sure, but it can be reason if phone doesn't start)
4.Turn phone off somehow (remove battery etc.)
5.Install drivers properly•Get rid of all usb drivers like Nokia, microsoft visual ++ run time environments
•Install the LG drivers by selecting the update manager from the lg site
•Disable LGE Virtual Modem. In your Windows operating system, go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > Modems > Right click on LGE Virtual Modem and click Disable.
6.Press and keep pressed "Volume up"+"Return" and connect USB cable to phone
7.Yellow screen with text emergency mode should appeared
8.Shake the handset (I know, it sounds ... strange, but it helps for ones, so... why don't try it?) UPDATE: Read some quotes on bottom.
9.Run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe (Has administrator).
Select Type : 3GQCT (I have one report that CDMA mod works too)
Select PhoneMode : DIAG (in case of fail try EMERGENCY, and as last chance use CS_EMERGENCY)
10.I Recommend do not switch phone off. There was some people, which done it and after they were not be able to turn it on again. If flashing failed, just select some another mode and try it again, again, try shake/connect disconnect, again, again....
11.In KDZ file : Choose the ROM file you downloaded in the first step
12.Press Launch software update
13.Shake the handset (I know, it sounds ... strange, but it helps for ones, so... why don't try it?) UPDATE: Read some quotes on bottom.
14.Make sure that all update was done successfully. Phone should restart itself automatically
15.Disconnect the USB cable from the phone
16.Press the three button combo for HW reset of device i.e volume up + home + power button
