Welcome to AF. Did you make a nandroid backup prior to flashing Virus' ROM?

Factory reset is hardly ever the correct answer now that your rooted.


Are you able to get back into revocery? Pull your battery and hold volume down + power and select recovery. If you can get back to recovery youll be fine just flash a new ROM.. I'd suggest MikG 2.59. Virus isnt supporting his ROM anymore (it hasnt been updated since august) so I would suggest staying away from them.

ok so i think i know what you did. you tried to nanadroid restore back to your original stock rom but something happened. the problem is that when it tried to restore it wiped your phone clean so there is no rom loaded onto your phone. so when you bootup you get nothing. as long as you have recovery you can get out of this.

first thing did you rename your nandroid backup to something else? if so you need to name it by not using any spaces and do not use any symbols. try renaming it and try again. if that does not work then i would download a rom and put it on the card and wipe data, dalvik cache, and cache (do that three tmes) then flash the rom.

Yes, through recovery you can enable a usb connection which will let you get any ROM flashed to your phone. As said above, MikG is great. If you're using AmonRA 2.3, then the usb enable is USB-MS or something like that. You should be fine.

"A Factory reset" does nothing more than clean out everything. If you messed with the original ROM then it just cleans out cache, Dalvic, Data. It then attempts to restore the System By rebooting and installing System again. However since you deleted system there is nothing else for it to do.

Wiping your Sd Card had no affect on the sytem. Yes it has .android_secure for a few system apps but again if there is nothing in the system then it does nothing.

Please do yourself a favor and Read the Guide. It is full of very useful information. I am assuming you would not dive into a pool with out first checking if there is water in it, So why do it with your phone. Press the Gingerbread guide in my sig and take a moment to learn what rooting / flashing is about.
