To verify, turn off your phone and press the Call Button + Volume Down Button + Power Button. Doing this boots your phone into recovery. If you face any issues, feel free to comment below 
Are you sure it will work 100%? And btw i unbricked my phone
ty:))
That’s good. Yes it will work
how to uninstall this??
And it is sucessful
DD
I will have to figure out how to uninstall. BTW, why would you want to uninstall? It’s harmless and good for your phone!
I think I messed up somewhere. When I turned off my phone, I tried to do the “Call Button + Volume Down Button + Power Button.” thing. But the phone just rebooted normally.
I was actually trying to install the Cyanogen mod in my LG-P350 through the procedures you have here: http://www.blogotechblog.com/2012/01/install-cyanogenmod-7-2-on-lg-optimus-me-p-350/
Instead, I just ran Gscript Lite, and clicked “script” (the 4th entry, the one newly installed). The phone rebooted with a black screen, with the following text:
Fastmoot mode started
udc_start()
–suspend–
–reset–
–portchange–
–reset–
portchange–
STALL GET_DESRIPTOR 128 6 1006 0 18
fastboot: processing commands
Now it’s stuck there. I tried rebooting but my phone reboots to that screen. Is my phone bricked? Thanks in advance.
No it is not. If you press the Call button + Volume Down button + Power button, the phone should reset factory data and start normally if recovery is not installed. If you have bricked it, you can unbrick LG Optimus Me by following method 2 in this tutorial http://www.blogotechblog.com/2011/12/how-to-root-lg-optimus-me-p350-after-firmware-update/
Thanks, I managed to reinstall the ClockworkMod through Fastboot. I read it somewhere after extensive research
Turns out I did mess up somewhere. 
Btw, I was successful in installing CyanogenMod 7 to my LG-P350. The risks were all worth it. Keep it up Sir Lalit. Your site has been a great help.
Thanks for the appreciation Chris. You can also try the Cosmic Experia ROM
Hey i did the same thing i guess and my phone is also stuck at the same screen what to do now how did you correct it???
thanx in advance!!!
by installing custom recovery in my lg optimus p 350 my phone get stucked in fastboot mode and is not booting up . what i have 2 do to make my phone in original position…
Remove the battery and reinsert it. If it does not work, press the Call button + Power Button + Volume Down button. This will either reset your phone or boot into recovery!
i enabled usb debugging mode after that i cannot see my device listed on computer
What is the error?
is there a way to install custom recovery on lg optimus me without using computer please help
That is not possible!
( i downloaded the recovery installer zip) ( i extracted its contents to a folder in the pc ).. (i enabled usb debuggimg on my phone connected my to pc) (i ran the recoveryinstaller.bat )….(after that nothing happend a gscript application was not installed)
:(
Have you uninstalled Security apps like Anti-Virus etc?If it still doesn’t work, You can try with the ADB method then , http://www.blogotechblog.com/2012/01/how-to-install-custom-recovery-on-lg-optimus-me-p350/
i did everyting as u said a gscript was automatically and i added sh.script and no su permissions were asked my phone is rooted after that i holded volumedown+call+powerbutton my phone rebooted normally wipeing out phone data … what’s the error?
You shouldn’t proceed if superuser permissions are not asked. Are you sure your phone is rooted?
when i press script
stderr: Premision denied
?
all good
am very much sure that my phone is rooted i use a lot of root applications like cachemate ,masqued crusader…… do i have to update my superuser?
This just only reseted my phone not happy.
If this does not work for you, you can try this method However, I would like to know, were you able to add the script successfully?
sir while loading the script.sh from the file it is showing “error while looking fr script ” some null pointer exeption
Is your phone rooted? You can try the alternative method if this does not work. The alternative method guarantees success!
in dat method in step 8 the access is denied
That means either your phone is not rooted or Superuser and su binary is not updated!
wat is the latest version its showing superuser in my cell
I guess it must be 3.0.4 and Su binary is 3.0!
Hi Lalit,
I got error, when my phone restart after doing the above steps.
“Fastboot mode started
udc_start()”
Like this please help me.
Oh well, it seems you will not be able to boot! Remove the battery and re insert it around 3-4 times. If that does not work, insert the batter and press the Volume Down button + Call button and Power button together unless you see the recovery screen. If you do not see the recovery screen, your phone will be reset. This is the only way you can get rid of this fastboot mode! Let me know if this does not work and I will tell you how to make it work
Hi Lalit,
I tryed as per your instructions but it’s not happening. before this one month i updated my phone firmware to v10F. so i think because of this the reset option is not working i hold that Volume Down button + Call button and Power button, but still it is going to Fastbootmode.
please could tell me is there any Plan B for solving this issue.
And great thanks for your above instructions.
Yes, there is a Plan B which lets you unbrick LG Optimus Me. Just follow the second method listed here with heading “Root LG Optimus Me After firmware Upgrade” This process involves rolling back to stock firmware using KDZ updater! Hope this helps!
Hi Lalit,
You are just like a medicine for everyone and your treatment is worked for me GREAT THANKS.
Now my phone is running on Cosmic Experia ROM.
Once Again Great Thanks.
You’re welcome Manju
Thanks for your appreciation!
@ yoganand yes it is ppssible without pc. It is the same method as one with android sdk instaler. U just need to download terminal emulator from market and type the same comands that u would type in cmd,without adb shell comand. Thats how i did on my phone.
FOR THOSE WHO SAY THAT PRESSING THE CALL BUTTON+ VOLUME DOWN BUTTON+POWER OFF BUTTON GIVES HARD RESET THE SOLUTION IS PRESS THOSE THREE BUTTONS AND RELEASE THE POWER BUTTON WHEN THE LG LOGO APPEARS BUT KEEP PRESSING THE OTHER TWO UNTIL U SEE THE RECOVERY SCREEN.
HOPE THIS WORKS FOR YOU GUYS!…………

Mr. Lalit I did all what is mentioned in your blog but how come when after the blue screen appears my phone just goes to reboot not into recovery mode…I don’t know what went wrong coz all went well until that reboot part…mind telling me what to do? And if its this way can I continue to install the cyanogen nightlies rom? sorry for so many questions…I hope you can help me..
Just tell me what happens when you press Call + Volume Down + Power button simultaneously? If you don’t have recovery installed, it will reset your phone, so make sure you have backup!
when I press those buttons my phone goes to reset mode.not the recovery mode
So you have not installed recovery properly. Please try the alternate method!
Hello Lalit
I want to install CyanogenMod…
I have rooted my phone with GingerBreak
Then installd RecoverInstaller Successfully
Added Script also…
But cant boot into recovery after pressing those key combinations
Already tried several times.
Please help me.
And wat is “Android SDK installed“ ??
Is it necessary ??
Try this method http://www.blogotechblog.com/2012/01/how-to-install-custom-recovery-on-lg-optimus-me-p350/
You need Android SDK for this. Just search in google for Android SDK
hey i did same but when i turn on my phone it my optimus me stuck on lg logo and Lg soft keys blinking Lg optimus please tell me now what to do.????please help me
If you have installed recovery properly, re-insert batter and boot into recovery using the hardware buttons!
Hi Mr Lalit,
I tried the ones abve but im stuck at the script loading part. the app can’t locate the script file. please help.
thanks!
If this does not work, you need to use the alternative method listed here http://www.blogotechblog.com/2012/01/how-to-install-custom-recovery-on-lg-optimus-me-p350/
yeah, i tried that as well, but when using the cmd prompt adb devices command isn’t recongized.
You must install Android SDK and platform tools!
Hello. After hours of playing around and realizing that ADB was located in a weird directory (program files), I was able to successfully install and enter recovery. But, after doing so, I was unable to select any of the options using the menu key. So I got frustrated and installed ROM manager. OOOOPS! Now, I’m in Emergency mode trying to get back to what I had before all of this started. Do you know why was I not able to use the “Call” button to select any of the items in Custom Recovery?
You can use the Call button for Clockworkmod Recovery but for custom, you must use Menu button. To get out of the emergency mode, you must use the KDZ updater, the instructions for which are given here http://www.blogotechblog.com/2011/12/how-to-root-lg-optimus-me-p350-after-firmware-update/2/
you must put the .sh files to gscript folder
Is it possible to install custom recovery in this method in factory rom in p350 ??
This is for factory ROM only because custom ROMs can be installed only using custom Recovery!
may i knw one more thing ? which is the best custom rom for lg p350 ?!
All ROMs posted here are good and fully functional!
i had installed sdk as well as jdk and plateform tools but
adb devices command isn’t
recongized yet
plzz help me
Start the command prompt in the location of the platform-tools folder and then try!
I had installed CM 7.2 but der aftr my phone is not recognized by my system. what should I do?
What happens when you connect your phone in USB mass storage mode? Reboot and try again!
i didnt saw mass storage option.
now i got another problem i can’t turn off my fon itz getting restarting while im turn off it.so i hav to temove battey to turn off.
plzz help me
Try to use some other ROM!
hey the gscript cant load the .sh file so can i just type the contents? aif yes please wrote down the contents so i can write it. thanks.
