Help I'm guessing I bricked my phone? Help please!

So basically what happened was, I rooted my phone earlier & downloaded pimpmyrom to use some of those features. I dont have clockwork mod or anything like that on my phone, but I did to both a Titanium and Nandroid backup right before my phone restarted & stopped working, which I'm hoping was a good thing. If I plug the charger in w/o turning the phone on the battery charging animation comes up, but if I try to turn the phone on the LG logo flashes up & then the screen goes black & the phone doesn't boot. I'm not sure if this is my phone being bricked or bootlooped, never happened to me before so I can't be sure. I believe it was the beats audio file I tried to install on my phone, I'm not exactly sure what happened tho, so if anyone could tell me what happened & point me to a thread to fix it it'd be appreciated! Thanks :D

Your device is not brick ! If you see any life on your phone then you are ok! (: have you try adb push build.prop ?
 
Edit: nvm i got my phone into emergency mode, thats the screen where it says "Download mode" and somethin' about not unplugging the phone correct?

is there a thread on how to do that? I'm trying the unbricking guide in the thread HS posted but I thought I read somewhere the adb push method was faster.
 
I figured out how to Factory reset but I doubt that would help anything, I'm trying the unbrick method but it's not working, is there anything else I can try?
 
I don't have this phone so you're going to have to search the forum yourself but what's probably happened is that you borked the bootloader, see if there is one available in your forum and ADB push it to the phone. Good luck.
 
nvm, I got the unbrick method to work, unfortunately I had resetted the phone :( but luckily I had backed it up before I did so, thanks for all the help guys!
 
Don't tell titanium backup to integrate updates into the ROM, or you will brick it again. Freeze the apps you don't want with it after rooting.
