Root Reseting

When i turn on my phone it just keeps restarting over and over again after i downloaded z4Root after already having superuser? It didn't start until then. Is their anyway this can be fixed? Also when i try to reboot my phone into recovering for clockworkmod recovery it won't let chose anything with my camra button. I have the LG Optimus V from VirginMobileUsa.

that's a new one for CWM...I'm not totally sure, but you might need to use Gordita Root for this one...check the All Things Root guide for that one. I think for that to work, USB debugging needs to be on as well!
 
Try home button to select.

Were you trying to run z4 root and you were already rooted as you would have needed root to install clockworkmod recovery?
 
Yes i used ROM Manager unfortantly and now i'm stuck with this ICS ROM with a bunch of crappy bugs and i can't do anything once i'm in recovery. I am forced to do a battery pull.
 
Go to the All Things Root Guide sticky and download the LeWa ROM. It's even better than ICS and is just as fast and smooth. Make sure you reboot the phone a couple of times then flash the BobZohme v4 kernel (do not wipe or format anything before you install) to fix the Music Player. Read the guide on how to flash the flash_image, recovery, and ROM. to get the ROM installed. Any Questions post in that thread. You will need the BobZohme modified CWMod recovery (VM670NH_recovery.img) as well.
 
Thats the thing, i can't boot into any kinda recovery at all. When i do i just can't pick anything with my camara button like to select anything. Nothing works i'm forced to do a battery pull. This is byfar the worst ROM ever made. My superuser is no longer "Granting Permission" too my ROM either and for some reason my phone is no longer rooted, which if im correct it had to be to even download my worthless ROM right? I downloaded AOKP ICS 4.0.4 - Mod version aokp_VM670_milestone-5

&How do i install the BobZohme modified CWMod recovery ?
 
You might have to read and do this: http://androidforums.com/optimus-v-...-flash-zv9-update-technically-challenged.html
You have messed up your recovery and root. This is probably your best option for getting your phone straightened out.
The Update will restore you stock recovery, clean up the root mess and put it back to a non-rooted state, put the stock ROM (with the update) back on the phone. Now it's like you never messed it up. Then use the rest of the tutorial to get Root and the BobZohme_VM670NH_recovery.zip back on your phone.
