Hi there,
I updated my o1 to the gingerbread version 2.3.3 V20G with KDZ update.
It stuck at the Emergency mode screen for very long time so I took the battery out . When i tried to turn on my o1, it won't turn on.
I tried to hard reset, change another battery but nothing happenned.
Now, my o1 seems to be dead.
Can anyone help me?
Sorry for my bad english.

Go to the LG Service and say that you was playing game and it freezed , you was scare and pull the battery out ... and if LG service ask you about rom upgrading or rooting , or KDZ , you have to say to them that you don't know everything.... why you have to go to LG , because you was use KDZ to upgrade and that's stupid... KDZ is very dangerous...it broke your phone mainboard ( all thing inside your phone is mainboard ).....

Last week, I got in touch with root, recovery, custom ROMs and stuff aaaaand... then I got an error in KDZ and bricked my phone (stuck at emergency mode). For about 3 hours I had an expensive paper-weight. I just stayed calm (well, not THAT calm, but...) and after almost 3 hours of searching and trying all the possibilities of 'unbrick methods', I succeded.

Give us more details and you may not need specialized service to fix your phone.

- When you plugged your phone showing 'emergency mode', did your computer recognized it in some way?
(with 'recognized' I mean if Windows make a sound of 'device connected' and/or some lg modem appears on the device manager of Windows)
To me, it was recognized only after I removed the battery (thus making my phone in emergency mode turn off) and connecting the phone trough USB without battery. From this point, I just flashed a stock ROM with KDZ but, instead of selecting DIAG, I selected EMERGENCY.
If your phone gets recognized, remember to have the LG modem disabled like in any normal usage of KDZ
Now my phone is OK and I used KDZ many other times successfully.
(If you haven't seen already, it's very easy to find guides to unbrick the P500 - search this forum or google it).

If you're not sure you will be able to fix your phone anytime soon, keep it powered off to save the battery and give us more details about your problem, until you have in mind a possible solution.

You have a big chance of fixing your phone if it's only a software problem.

sadly, my phone is not recognized, it's nearly dead. Nothing happened when i touch every button.
It's very strange cause my last LG android phone, GW620, i used KDZ and LG utils to flash firmware almost every day but with P500, i just "update" and it turned to be a brick :(
So my o1 died? Can i do anything else before going to LG service center?
