Did you try flashing the stock firmware image using fastboot (a guide for 4.1.1 is here, but applicable for any google image as such)
Once you flash the stock image, you can re-root and try flashing custom ROM's

I fixed it now all I did was unroot then root my phone again. Thanks for all the help and I will use these suggestions next time if this happens. Thank you all again thank you very very much.

Don't hijack threads next time, make sure you have the appropriate CWR version, make sure you do have CWR. Do not download from a mobile standpoint, always from a computer to lower the chances of corrupted .zip's.
So I've rooted my phone and got a custom kernel on it. How would i install ics on it? Or install clockword recovery on it? Thanks!
Now that you have some confidence in your first success, I'd suggest a bit of time to read the posts in these forums to decide what you are going to flash and how to do it.
What do I do next to install a ics rom?

It depends on which ICS rom you want. I know for a fact that for GB recovery you can flash AOKP and CM9, idk about the other ones
Do I just download it and update it through recovery mode?

You did the batch clean up without flashing a new ROM? Nice...
Just nvflash to stock 2.3.4. It'll work, if you get errors use a different USB/USB slot.
There are guides that explain.
Look that the thread here for detailed instructions on how to flash recovery with nvflash. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566681
If it works properly but you can't boot into recovery then run the clear-up batch and you should be good to go (assuming it works and you can boot into recovery and flash a ROM.

[Q] Can't flash any GB Roms... From ICS

So I'm on He'll fire Sandwich 1.9 and every time I try to flash a rom that's GB based it keeps saying "installation aborted (bad)"
I've downloaded it from my G2X and from my computer multiple times and it says the same each time... Wtf someone please help.

Are you using CWM or ROM Manager? If the answer is CWM, did you use ROM Manager or NVflash?
Also, have you tried a different ROM, or just the same one?

Basically what the first reply was, but wanted to add in so you know,
If you used ROM Manager to do basically anything, you need to NVFlash CWM and than always use CWM to flash anything. ROM Manager does whats called a fake flash of CWM.
And than yes, which ROM(s)?

trying that now....
well i tried flashing stock and it works but when i rebooted after the LG boot Screen the screen is all black and the backlight just keeps flashing on and off... any suggestions?
Search the G2x development forum for Batch Cleanup Tool. Run that, then flash a stock ROM. Boot that ROM once, then try a custom ROM.

I downloaded the cleanup batch and ran it.... proceeded to install the stock ROM and still stuck on a black screen with the backlight flashing on and off. I think I've tried everything to fix it and nothing works....

Which stock ROM are you installing? Have you tried downloading it again, to make sure it's not a bad download?
Also which CWM are you using? if you're using touch, rev ert back to an older version

I'm sure somebody knows an answer to this, but I'm just gonna say it. You need a case.
Way to respect the OP by still making the useless reply and besides don't you think it's a little late for a case?
And do a search
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
I
So first register at www.sammobile.com, then search SGH-T769 under firmware and download the August 2012 ICS or The Feb 2013 ICS Firmware, wait for the download to finish (took me 30 minutes) then extract which ever firmware zip you downloaded then using Odin click on PDA and select the .md5 file which is located in the extracted ICS Firmware Folder that you've downloaded from sammobile.com
Download the PIT file here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
Click on PIT in Odin and then select the one downloaded from the link above
then make sure re-partition isn't checked and start the flashing process after it is done flashing and reboots you'll have stock ics to root it simply follow the instructions over at the root ics stock thread found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
This will flash a custom recovery and once the recovery is flashed using Odin reboot into recovery and flash the superuser.zip then you'll have Rooted Stock ICS Firmware or if you want you could just skip flashing superuser.zip and just flash a custom rom.
*BOOT LOOP MIGHT OCCUR*
To fix boot looping after flashing stock ICS just boot into stock or custom recovery and wipe data and cache then reboot and you're good to go.

We don't have official 4.1.2 from T-Mobile or Samsung but what we do have is custom roms which are built on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, have you ever flashed a custom rom or are you new to rooting and custom roms?

flash oldest custom rom that you find and update after with LG Suport Tool to stock 2.2.2 , that will make your phone stock withaout custom recovery or anything else, download from LG site that tool, and 2.2 or 2.2.1 roms you can find in development, something really old
or downgrade to old bb and upgrade with same LG Suport Tool
I think is safest way
