Root Please help before I brick my ally...

Alright, details on how it happened aren't horribly important. Tried to flash velocity 1.1 and my phone was cut off halfway. I no longer have clockworkmod to restore from my backups. Instead I have nand. lucky me i don't have any backups that are compatible. So what I'm hoping for is that someone has a stock restore for the lg ally in nand.

So to sum it up I have access to recovery only and no backups to restore. So if someone can point me to a bone stock backup for the lg ally i would love you forever. Actually ANY restore at this point. If i can get into my phone I can fix this. Sorry to ramble but I am frustrated beyond all reason at this point. :(
 
Can you flash clockwork recovery through adb/fastboot? Sorry I have never used or flashed lg phones. Just sammy and htc
 
Ill test that in a minute. sorry to be lazy and add another brick thread to the site. let ya know how it turns out. thanks
 
you dont need to test anything. there is a stock froyo.zip nandroid in there. just download it, place on sd card, and flash.
 
Still same problem, now its just sayinf oops...something went wrong! please check revovery log! Is there any way to get clockwork on my phone in the state it is in? That seems to be my only hope
 
Fixed it. Disregard all these messages. I feel like an idiot for using the wrong tools this whole time...I'm going back to clockwork mod after this...
 
I would use clockwork/rom manager on the ally. Been known to cause issues. I would stick with amonra. The restore might not have been working if you didnt unzip it or had it in another folder after unzipping it. Anyhow, like i said youre best off with amonra recovery on the ally.
 
I've done everything to try and brick this phone and no good I've clicked on every single option and it eventually crashed to the fastboot. I've formatted every single partition. Not that I would recommend it. If you still have recovery you can keep a copy of velocity zip on the root of the sdcard and flash. The only time I've eever seen a brick phone was when my buddy dropped it in a toilet. Even without a recovery you could still use fast boot and use allyrr or lgmobile tools to downgrade to earlier v6 stock and start over after you've restored recovery
