You need to restore from a back up within recovery. There are a few floating around here, try searching. The app name would be a plus too, even the developer, so we can avoid it at all costs.
Go into recovery mode (I think it's "volume down + home + power" (if that doesn't work then it's volume up instead of down) and restore your NANDroid or Clockwork backup that you have.

It's up to the app's developer to set the constraints in the market. It's up to you to read about what you are installing on your phone. You have an Optimus V, not a Galaxy S, so don't install software meant for another phone. 
Now you are going to have to use ADB to get things going again. Start by downloading and installing the Java JDK. Next, download and install the Android SDK.
Next, download the Xionia recovery, and the ROM of your choice (and any other files the ROM needs like gapps for aospCMod). Once downloaded, move them into your Android-SDK's platform-tools folder.
Edit: It's sometimes hard to tell where the spaces are in these commands, so I put a red underline "_" in place of all spaces below.
Next, connect your phone to your PC via USB and turn it on. Once it has started up, open a command prompt on your PC and type the following:
cd_c:/PATH_TO_ANDROID_SDK_HERE/platform-tools
adb_shell
If you get a successful adb server running, you should then see eithr a $ sign prompt, or a # sign prompt. If you see a $ sign, you are not rooted, stop here and post that you are not rooted. If you see a # sign, you are rooted, continue.
Now type exit
Now type the following:
adb_remount
adb_push_c:/PATH_TO_ANDROID_SDK_HERE/platform-tools/NAME_OF_ROM_ZIP_FILE_/sdcard/NAME_OF_ROM_ZIP_FILE
adb_push_c:/PATH_TO_ANDROID_SDK_HERE/platform-tools/NAME_OF_XIONIA_RECOVERY_FILE_/sdcard/NAME_OF_XIONIA_RECOVERY_FILE
adb_shell_flash_image_recovery_/sdcard/NAME_OF_XIONIA_RECOVERY_FILE
adb_reboot_recovery
Your phone should now boot into the Xionia recovery, title at the top and bottom, with menus in blue. Use your volume up/down to navigate the menus, the menu_key to select an item, and the back_key to go back to the previous menu.
1) Select wipe cache
2) Select advanced, then select wipe dalvik cache
3) Select mounts, then format data, cache, system, and boot
4) Back in the main menu, select install zip from sdcard
5) Select install zip from sdcard (DO NOT CHOOSE TO UPDATE ANYTHING!!!)
6) Select the ROM zip file (this will take 2-5 minutes to install, be patient)
7) If your ROM had other files such as gapps, install them now
8) Back in the main menu, select reboot system now
Your phone should now reboot, it will take a long time, it has to rebuild all your system files, be patient. It should take 3-10 minutes, if it takes more than 20 there is something wrong.

Thanks i'll try it right now and i'll tell you the results. Also i don't know why i installed that it was like and i was tried i didn't know what i was doing.It's up to the app's developer to set the constraints in the market.

Did you install Java JDK and Android SDK yet? You can install JDK normally, but it is recommended to change the install path of the Android SDK to your root. Most likely, your C: drive. In other words, when you install, change it so that it installs to C:\android-sdk (you can name it whatever you want).Here's what my desktop looks like what do i do next. (im sorry im a noob at this)
Make sure that your recovery and ROM are on your SD card (the ROM stays zipped, the recovery gets extracted).
From there, you can now open a CMD window, and cd to your platform-tools directory. Using something like 'cd c:\android-sdk\path\platform-tools' and begin your adb commands.
I don't know what you mean, you don't open files on your phone with ADB, you move them around, install them, manipulate them, but you don't open them.
I ment as in it doesn't let me put more files on it. I trired moving the recovery on there and it didn't let me
How did you try to move the recovery onto the sdcard? If you are trying to drag and drop, you need to mount the sdcard in recovery. Otherwise, you need to use ADB's push command.
When you connect to your computer in recovery mode and mount the SD, are you able to see the SD card in Explorer? You can always put the SD in the computer (if you have a card reader) and copy files that way.
Also, if you can get a root shell (#) in adb, you can simply use the 'push' command to move files from your computer to the phone.
