Root Phone no longer responding it button commands

Newbie
After using the unlock bootloader script, and trying to boot into CWM from ROM Manager, I can no long turn my phone on, and I can't go into download mode. What do I do?

*UPDATE* Phone turned on after I took out the battery while having it plugged into my PC, then left it out for a few minutes, then put it back in. Not sure why it didn't do this the previous 4 or 5 times. But how do I know if the bootloader unlocker worked? I can't boot into CWM, it's just a blank screen....

Download rom manager and use boot into recovery, if you get to CWM, Then it worked, if not, try again. be sure not to use rom manager to install CWM, if you do and it didn't work you will brick your phone

I tried reboot from rom manager no go.

Pull out battery, put back in. hold down vol down + pwr button until the scary menu appears. Tap power button twice to "hard reset" but really it goes into CWM.

no cwm? hard reset I guess
cwm yes? itll go to cwm.

just as a heads up, my rom manager says cwm 6.0.1.1 is installed.

Download rom manager and use boot into recovery, if you get to CWM, Then it worked, if not, try again. be sure not to use rom manager to install CWM, if you do and it didn't work you will brick your phone

+1 to don't install from rom manager
 
There is a known glitch in our phone that if your phone is too warm, it will not boot into CWM recovery correctly. Or rather, I should say, it will boot, but all your get is a blank screen with the backlight on. Turn off your phone, let it cool off, and try again. Trust me, this works, and if you're getting a blank screen and not a picture of the android, this is where you are stuck.
 
Would this be a problem?

No, that is fine. That is just clearing out stuff that may exist if you took the OTA updates. It's a precaution to prevent possible bricks in the future.
 
Got the same problem guys, but this time, I wasn't trying to boot into CWM, my phone just froze, then turned off, and tried to restart, but wouldn't get past the LG logo, and then when I pulled the battery, I again could not use my power button. I can't boot into Download Mode, or Factory Reset. What do I do if I can't use my buttons?

Plug USB to computer n phone, put bat in, hold vol up, down, n press power. Anything?
