Ok! I achieved root with gingerbreak. However, when I tried to install the custom recovery tool http://androidforums.com/getitnowmarketing/256286-custom-recovery-ms690-optimus-m.html it went into:

Fastboot mode started
udc_start()

I tried taking out the battery and restarting as normal as well as holding the home+vol_down+pwr and it keeps going into that screen. I've tried reading some of the unbricking tutorials but i'm not getting anywehre. I also tried going to the [Resolved] [HOW TO] Unbrick LG Optimus One P500 from fastboot mode started udc_start().. - xda-developers but I can't find the stock rom for my phone. My phone came stock with 2.2.1.

Thanks in advance.

This happened to me about two weeks ago and I FREAKED cause I knew what I had did & it happened cause I used ROM Manager, worst mistake ever. So anyways after that happened I kept trying to get my phone to work and I didn't even think about checking the internet for how to fix it, so I just kept connecting and disconnecting it into my computer and it'd would say "port changed" or some shit like that; but i'm not exactly sure what I did but I took my battery out, plugged my phone in, then put the battery back in when the 'battery required' screen came up a couple times and that just started my phone up as usual. I hope some of that helped cause I know you're freaking out about your phone =/

You should be asking in the HTC/HTC Evo subforums. Us Optimus M folk can't help ya much.

People always find this forum after using ROM Manager :(

ROM MANAGER WILL BRICK THE OPTIMUS M!!!
(I'm only doing this because someone is bound to do it to you, lol)

Send a PM to joneidy and they should be able to help you. Make sure you mention you used ROM Manager :)

God damn it, I made the same mistake :mad:
I was playing with that app RootTools and there was an option reboot into recovery (or smth like that) I decided to give it a shot, because it seemed so easy after all the pain I went through typing numerous times all that stuff in ADB (with no luck) as described in this thread (http://androidforums.com/optimus-m-...ecovery-2-2-1-stock-phones-2.html#post2852665).
And after restarting I have the same problem!
I've sent Joneidy a message hope he will help.
BTW maybe smb from those who already got help from Joneidy can help me. I will greatly appreciate that.
Thank you
