HELP!!! LG GT540 BRICKED AND WINDOWS GIVES ERROR WHILE CONNECTING IN DOWNLOAD MODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Guest liamwilli2]

HELP!!! The other day i put the cyanogenmod 6, android 2.2.1 rom onto my phone with clockwork recovery. I didn't like it (no radio, didn't recognise my sd card's second partiton!) I used the KDZ Updater program to reflash an old rom onto it, but it bootlooped when it rebooted. It did this because i didn't wipe the /data folder before flashing! I thought i would try again tomorrow (i can only use the pc at the library annoyingly), but now, when i connect my phone in download mode, a baloon thing pops up in the notification bar saying

A device connected to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognise it

and kdz updater gives me an error! I need to have a working phone :(. please can someone help me???????? Please!!!

I have tried using the back ports, but it doesn't work!!!!

You should be able to enter emergency mode.

Remove battery, hold volume down button and plug in USB cable.

So your device is definitely not bricked.

Try to reinstall Optimus drivers, enter emergency mode and flash it with KDZ, don't forget to choose emergency mode in KDZ.

Fixed it! Don't know how i did it, but i did :(! I think it may have been because i looked at the device manager and told it to search for updates. But download mode worked, i reflashed a fastboot rom, and used it to wipe it. I then used recovery to put 2.2.1 back on it!
