I suppose that you even can't boot in to your phone. If it is like that, try to go into recovery (vol down + home + power button combo), wipe all data and reflash your ROM.

Its not called bricked you just did things wrong. Dont spoil rom manager image.! I've been using rom manager to flash thing like 200 time not even a single unsuccessful flash, let even brick.
A brick is when phone is totally dead no logo no recovery no fastboot no adb. Just like phone without battery.
And be precise like you were on this rom and than I did this and that.... so that everyone can help u better.

Use KDZ updater software cautiously as it will make it real brick.

2x attempted to flash CWM and two times got fastboot here. If you look @ xda, you can see that clearly there is a serious bug with flashing recovery at least, but have yet to hear anything from the developer.
ROM Manager for recovery flashing = not recommended (from me at least).

i'd write the steps again
1.) Relax
2.) Download KDZ Updater & Stock KDZ File (KDZ Updater- http://www.4shared.com/file/UleS4dP3/KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.html
ROM- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865479)
3.) After ur downloads are done. Remove the battery.
4.) Plug In ur phone while holding ( VOLUME UP + RETURN ) this would bring ur phone in EMERGENCY MODE.
5.) open KDZ Updater. In Type choose 3GQCT and in PhoneMode use EMERGENCY or CS_EMERGENCY . choose the KDZ file u downloaded.. and hit the launch software update button.
6.) If it fails. Go to device manager. Under Modems Disable LGE Virtual Modem or LGE Android USB Modem. and restart PC and repear step 4 and 5.This should Do the work
7.) if u're on version 2.2.2 download Gingerbreak(Search the forum) and root ur phone . Install custom recovery and flash whatever ROM u want
Thank me if i helped
Cheers
Rom manager is fixed now.

Flash whatever recovery you need from here. You can flash CWM from your amon-ra. Read the thread.
Oh my God!!! Whatever you do don't flash the clockwork from inside amon!!!!!!!!! You will **** everything up
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Easy way is to just download the free rom manager app and flash it from there. First option in the app. Or put the PC36100.zip from the clockwork mod thread on the root or your SD. Then power down your phone and hold volume down+power button and it will get you into the bootloader it will scan automaticly foe the file and it will ask you to update. Hit yes and then it will ask you to reboot. Hit yyes and you will have clockwork mod

You can flash cwm over amonra. The above quoted thread contains flashable zips of the recoveries. This is the best method to switch recoveries. I have changed it 2 or 3 times and have faced no problem. The zips are unsigned so you will have to disable signature verification before flashing. Using rom manager has caused bricking in many users.

There are 2 safe methods to flash ClockworkMod:
1) using adb method and flash .img file
2) download from the market Rom Manager, install, open it and choose "Flash ClockworkMod recovery", it will auto download cwm and flash it.

Hello,
I have p500(indian) on old baseband and want to upgrade to new bb using lgmdp.. following are a few questions that i dint find an answer to.
1.what is the risk of having a bricked device if i turn off lg virtual modem..?
2. th lg virtual modem is shown as lge android platform usb modem.. is it the same..?
3. What rom and recovery should i be on to flash new baseband?
4. can i flash cm9 first and then new baseband?
5.my recovery takes around 5 seconds to show the options... it wasnt like this before.. is this normal? im on the recovery i firrst installed(amonra 1.2 the one with bad boot message)
6.before flashing a recovery zip or cwm from rom manger what precautions should i take?
7.In rom manager if i say install recovery.. it shows p500 and p500(oldbb) so if i flash old bb now and then upgrade.. will it work?
8. if flash the one without (oldbb) will my phone get bricked..?
Thanks for your answers in advance.. p500 was the best phone i got in my life.. and its not because of lg.. its because of its awesome community.!
> when i was on stock as you
> 1st I rooted ,this is A MUST 1st to do
> 2nd flash clockworkmod or amonra.. but cwm would be good for starters, just download rom manager at play store.. and u'll get it
> 3rd since ur on old baseband.. i suggest you flash cm7 rom or the on i modded then flash the old baseband fix so you dont need to upgrade
> incase you want to upgrade so u can also use cm9
> now is the time to use lgmdp .. Em not sure.. but i think its different ..virtual modem wasnt there when i switched baseband so i did not disabled any..
i think it good
Can anyone answer please..? cant find answers to these questions.. and neko man i think you misunderstood my question.. it partly answered one that is lg virtula modem maybe does not play an important part.. ppl please answer..

Well there are many tutorials out there on how to get new bb. Just follow them step by step. You have to flash it first then you can get CM9.

There is definitely a risk, and you have to follow the instructions clearly to avoid any risks. To be honest here, I bricked my phone thrice (yes! 3 times) using kdz updater. That's why I'd suggest that you don't upgrade to new bb using kdz updater

The only and most secure thing i have to prefer u to flash official froyo 2.2.2 on ur phone first... if u already using it then its ok... n if not then search a official froyo rom in zip format for flashing it via cwm recovery... after then... use lg pc suite for upgrading it to official 2.3.3 n ur phone will automatically updated to new bb too.
EDIT: Just clarify me what rom n recovery are u using...!?? What android version and baseband shows on ur phone....
