huh? you were trying to get into recovery without installing one?

man, you'll drive everyone crazy. so much just to get into recovery

yup. nandroid restore as an alternate to flashing with KDZ.

the processing popup is normal if it appears for a few second. if it shows processing all the time then something is wrong.

"you'll drive everyone crazy"... dont ask.... downed ROM manager...and it acquired clockworkmod version 3.0.0.sumthing (i selected the first option in menu...dont remember exactly what it said0 and then i went ahead to reboot into recovery and instead of recovery screen i get this:
fastboot mode started
udc_started

....after plugging into USB...

--suspend--
--reset--
--portchange--
--reset--
--portchange--

WTH!!!!!

(googled ad found this [HOWTO] Revive a bricked P500 on fastboot mode (the SHORT way) - xda-developers to the rescue..typing while the page loads)

^^ @RizEon

Even your phone recovery got corrupted. The same problem was faced by gmg9 yesterday. He was trying to upgrade to the latest Stock LG firmware. His custom recovery got corrupted...

Exact same situation... -- *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/mobile-monsters/134641-lg-optimus-one-thread-44.html#post1443726

Next time, download Android SDK and then use ADB Shell to install custom recovery. I use Amonra... its decent.
