Help Esteem trouble

I have a small problem. LOL my phone boots to the ClockworkMod recovery. I downloaded the stock esteem zip & opened it to my sdcard through the usb. Now, when I put the card back in my phone & scroll to "install zip from sdcard" it doesn't load it on my phone. :(

You mean you extracted the zip:confused:
Not supposed to..supposed to flash as a zip file. Did you make a backup:confused:
 
I did, but it's not showin up. Ok, I just finished loading it again on my sdcard. Should I try it in the phone again?

If you made a backup when you boot into recovery go to restore..pick the file that shows up(if you made a backup ) let it run then reboot.
If no backup yes install the zip onto sd via cpu..sd back into phone..install zip( if you don't see it at first remember there are two options for restore ) flash and reboot..let me know how it goes.
 
Well:Dit appears to be working. Instead of extracting it to the card, I sent it. Now my phone says install from sdcard complete. Should I go back & reboot it?
 
It takes me back to recovery again

You never answered though..did you ever make a backup in recovery prior to having this problem:confused:

Grrr..K what Version are you on B-C-D..going to send you a ROM to put onto the SD via the CPU.
 
no:(:( unfortunately I didn't make a backup. I'm running ZVC

OK..give me a min..uploading a ROM for you. Pull your battery out(Power off) your phone. Pull out the external SD card. Find your reading for the SD card for your Computer. Will be just a few then I can link you up:)
 
That is ZVB based...just wait. I know this one works on ZVC as I put it on a friends just after rooting her phone:)

Download this file to your computer and then place it on your SD card.
DO NOT OPEN WITH WINRAR JUST SAVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP

Not supposed to open it on the computer..see posts above. The zip file intact needs to be on the sd card for your phone. Once on the as we can flash it in recovery to get your phone boot up.
 
:( Well, I think my phone may be toast. The zip loaded on my phone, but it still reboots into recovery mode. Looks like a new phone is in order. Thanks for your advice anyway.
