Use PC Companion. It sill ask you to connect ur phone, but there an option "repair phone" (or something else) in the text. Hit that, and there is the repair. After repair, root again, and flash the rom.
(and it's called "soft brick")
(sry for my bad english)

Well..if that happen, u have to repair your phone using SEUS or PC Companion..or repair it using flashtool if u have the Stock file..if u don't there are threads providing it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921637

[Q] Strange Problems on my gt540 !! Plzz help me out

I recently found the phone numbers in contacts being displayed like 123-456-789. Previously it was being displayed without "-". I tried to change the locale & regional settings but it didn't work ! Why is it so ? Now After I factory resetted the phone & selected locale & English (US), though this problem got sorted out. I am facing two new problems. My Android market does not update itself !!!!!!!!! & the progress of the ongoing downloads does not show/appears blank. I am very worried. plzz tell me what to do !! i am using stock 2.1 V20c (India) ROM in my rooted gt540. Previously I never had any issues with my phone. Plzz help it's urgent. I have tried to master reset my phn 5 times hoping the problem wud get solved but it didn't.
New problem- new downloads take a lot of time to start after they have been queued for download
well... I`am not sure if this will help....but i had some issues with market not updating itsef and displaying wrong letters in system...so i formated my system, boot, data and cache partition through clockworkmod recovery and then restored from backup, after that everything worked fine...now, I assume you don`t have a backup, or clockworkmod recovery....or do you??
No.. I dnt hav a backup. Recently when I rooted my phone I deleted everything in the system cache folder and also removed some built in apps like SNS,layar,task killer, vid editor and wapedia thinking this wud free up internal memory. I think that is where the prob originated. Now tell me wat to do...

Try to flash ur phone with M6 or something like that...
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
I would reinstall the operating system (and i suggest you to do that)....first install rom manager from market.. if you can..then while still conected to internet install clockworkmod recovery (you`ll see an optyion in rom manager) when you do that..try to boot into recovery by presing power button (first shutdown your phone.....) and home button, when it turns on(holding) if you get something new...a menu, that`s recovery... now go and make a backup of you existing system....that way even if you make some bad choices you can always get your system back.........from this point you can put any ROM you like.... just download wanted ROM put it on the root(outside of any folder) of your sdcard ond go into recovery and choose instal from .zip.........I don`t have the time to search the stock 2.1 ROM v20c for you to install...you could try google
EDIT: here you can find all ROM-s, even a backup of 2.1
@ssik -- thanku so much 4 d detailed info..buddy.. as far as the complete list of original stock ROM's link goes... I already hav the link.. so u didn't hav to search it 4 me...anyways since u hav already done..thanx a lot..i owe u a lot 4 dat. so dont get disgusted..since I am new to this modding thing I feel frightened to hav my phn bricked while flashing...so I was asking 4 any othr alternative.
How to select my device in rom manager ? Since gt540 is not present in device list ? Does my phn's firmware needs to be fastboot enabled so that I can install clockwork ?

@matcho do u mean 2.0 m6 clockwork recovery ?
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
you welcome @sujitmohanty .....while in a rom manager (conected to internet aswel) just press flash clockworkmod recovery, wait till its finished and then try to boot into recovery mod as described, if that doesn`t work then we`ll do something else.... let me know if it works... and ask for any help you need... I was also as frightened as you in my beginnings )
ok dear..got it ! I wil be definitely doing it but today. I will be carrying it out tmrw cozz now its 8.23 p.m here in india and I am feeling bit tired. aft I do it, I wil b informing u in this thread or thru PM. till then take care.. and lastly once again thank u very very much for lending ur support and instilling confidence in me.
The guy above is telling you BS. You cannot flash clockwork on our device through ROM manager. It must be flashed in fastboot.

I think there is but it is untested and only just my theory.
Also, it doesn't matter what fastboot rom you flash, they all work the same, regardless of country etc
EDIT: Look at this..
http://android.modaco.com/content/l...id-2-2-on-your-phone-for-total-newbs-like-me/
It tells you everything on how to flash a fastboot ROM and that.
Ignore step 1 btw, it is un-needed.

well it worked for me..belived it or not
he could also use a program on the market called yaffsexpert with the recovery_clockwork_2.5.1.8_swift.img ----> ***.mediafire.com/?sax544hf3cye3gx (www insted of ***)
on root his sdcard.... less risky for him

I tried that but it didn't work for me before lol I've just went for the old fashioned fastboot method Also I was on about the ROM Manager thing because it doesn't support our device.

Help! Recovery not loading...

I m on tripnmiui latest version n locked bl . I was thinking of trying a different rom but I just found out that my xrecovery isn't working. Pressing back several times or installing the dooms app did not help. I don't understand what has gone wrong. If any1 has an idea it'll be greatly appreciated.
Sent from my X10 TripNMiUI-Iris using XDA App
Happened to me before on trips roms, and I was like"WTF!!!" who knows what he did to it when he changed xRecovery into his on TripNMIUI. Now he's gone for good. Never trusted his work.
You can try flashtool 0.2.91 GB ready and install xRecovery there. Connect your phone and ask Root permissions, grant access and install xRecovery.
