You using 32 bit or 64 bit windows?
 
It's windows vista I believe its 32-bits, anything I can do to fix this? Is there a method to use on vista?? Anybody know?

Oh and my phone reboots and goes back to the fastboot mode and says that its processing commands by the way like every 2-3 minutes, didn't do that yesterday, don't know why its doing this today
 
Also, when I go into computer management, it shows my android not under the other devices like the picture, no it shows it as some ASUS android devices (meanwhile my phone is LG) and in the ASUS android devices it says ASUS android bootloader interference....weird.

Is there a number I could call to fix this fastboot mode?

No, don't call metro about it, they're idiots when it comes to fixing fastboot (because just like any other carrier, they don't help you if you root your phone)

Uninstall the Asus driver and reboot your computer, unplug the phone before rebooting, after it reboots install the LG driver. After installing it, reboot your computer again to ensure a proper install (vista is the worst operating system you could use to do this...) Now try it again.
 
Love it! Finally after 9 days of frantic downloading and flashing; I finally softbricked my phone! Why did it take sooo long? Now I feel just like one of the guys, with a bitchin'$ 150 paperwieght. Fuggin' awesome. Well, all the tips and tricks don't work, what's worse: My wife is fully aware of my late night naughtiness. Shit, she took catching me watching porn better than knowing I smoked my new phone! Wat?

Btw, before I dunk it in the aquarium, does anybody have a way to get it past the waiting for devioce prompt?

Try pressing HOME+POWER+VOLUME DOWN and tell me what happens
 
Thanks for the Tutorial joneidy. Used part of it to help a member with an Optmus T with no recovery, stuck in fastboot. Now he is up and running with a custom recovery and ROM.

Thanks again.

Look here, it explains his inactiveness:

He made it today.
 
Douh! I've been using the "New Posts" option to manage all the Optimus Phone models. This lets me see all the new posts, but, I also have it set up to put me on the tail end of a thread so I don't have to scroll thru the whole thread trying to get to the new posts. I didn't even see that it was joneidy's thread, ooops!
Thanks you for pointing that out so I can give thanks to the proper member.
 
Hi...I have followed all of the steps but I keep getting stuck at "waiting for device."

I think this is due to the fact that Windows never sees my device, even after finding (assigning) the driver. At the end of step one, on the last screenshot where it says, "Windows has finished installing the driver software for this device" I get this:

"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. This device cannot start. (Code 10.)"

So i still do CMD cd, but it just says, "waiting for device" and it doesn't go anywhere.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? Or did I brick my first phone?
