Root Root Failed HELP

I tried rooting my casio commando c771 and now it goes to gzone stops and restarts. I cannot do anything. Is it possible to recover somehow. Thanks in advance.
I tried using root Jellybean even though I didn`t have it. Now I`m pretty sure I have a brick.
I am not an advanced user at all, so any help would be appreciated. No money and can`t buy another phone. Please help. Thanks
 
it depends on your phone system settings and firmware version.
you can try doing the hard key recovery, but it will only work if you have the custom GNM recovery.
the other thing you can try is to plug it into a windows xp/vista/7 pc with casio adb drivers installed, and see if you left usb debugging on.
 
Thanks Willster. First let me say thank you. I rooted my second Commando with your tutorial.
I`ve tried the hard key reset. No go. The drivers are installed on my PC. The Debugging was left on when I screwed it up. I was trying to root it and I used the root with the wrong firmware and rebooted it when I realized what I was doing and it is now stuck in boot loop. I posted on the Commando forum today about it, but I haven`t got any replies. Thanks for your help.
 
so if it is in a boot loop, but you left adb on, then it should, at some point, show the "adb" device. Interesting. I want to verify that it gets to the boot animation...?
if you are familiar with command prompt and adb, then you could do the following:
open a command prompt that is CD'd to the adb directory.
boot the phone
as soon as the boot animation kicks on, plug the phone into your pc, wait 2 seconds (give or take) then type adb devices. if it comes up with a device, then type adb reboot recovery.
