jdsingle76, thanks for the reply. Semper Fi !!! I'm a Navy Vet.
I am rooted but I don't think that I have CWM (MUST.LEAVE.RUM.ALONE.WHEN.I.DO.STUFF.LIKE.THAT...).
How can I tell? When I rooted this phone, I found something on this forum, threw caution to the wind and went for it (MUST.LEAVE.RUM.ALONE.WHEN.I.DO.STUFF.LIKE.THAT...).

Again, Thanks a trillian.

Try to reboot into recovery. Turn phone off. Power, home, volume down button all at once. Timing is everything. If the recovery is not blue and ugly and say Android stock recovery, you're on custom. Or since you're rooted, download "quick boot" app from play store for free. That app also helps you minimize use of your power button while flashing in your rum haze. And Semper Fi!

I'm posting this so someone can grab the tar ball from Kies once it comes. This will allow devs to get some zips out there, odex and deodexed.

1. Click on Start->Run, enter %temp% and press ENTER. First thing before you go into Kies, clear this folder out.
2. Keep that explorer window open and handy. I also suggest open another to where you want to copy it to(create new folder on desktop and keep it open).
3. Open Kies, let it download. As soon as it starts flashing, look for a folder with the tarball or search for .tar.md5 in the %temp% folder you have open. Copy/paste it to your new folder. Done. Congrats, you

I installed the tar and I cant activate it and when I try to update the profile or prl it just says its busy.

Do I have to call Boost ?

Run ##72786# through your dialer and let it do all it's work before you mess with it. All your do is click ok when it tells your it's rebooting. Try that first

I rode a Wetbike for many years. It's kind of like a jetski. It comes up out-of the water. Kinda like a Hydro foil


Yeah, I was a GSM. Turbines.
