nope it is still the same, it takes me back to the boot loader and if i reboot it i go back to a boot loop. ahhh i think im going to give up on it and whatever. THANK you tho. :)
 
Wait a sec.
You get to the bootloader screen?

The one with the Android guys on skateboards?

The phone should automatically look for the PC36img.zip file. You need to give it a second to read it. Then it should ask for the update, select yes and it should flash the recovery file that was posted.

Since I've had my phone, I've screwed it up almost any way possible and have always been able to get it back up and running. I've had sprint give up on me, and HTC and still get it fixed. Don't give up too quickly.

Edit: reread the thread, so what I said may not still apply. But flashing a theme screwing you to the point of no return? Have you tried a new sd card? Or format what you have and put just the recovery and a ROM on it and try?

From all I've seen these things are harder to brick than you'd think. There's even a thread out there somewhere on how to save a brick. It's a pia to do but it's possible

unless your after a new phone that is:rolleyes:
