Root Help!

Just recently, I was downloading Smoked Glass-Esque ROM and after it finished booting all it came to was a black screen.

So I took the battery out and put it back in.

It booted to a black screen.

The phone is on, but nothing is showing up

Please help

have you tried booting into recovery?

If not try pulling the battery then powering on the phone while holding X

Can you get into recovery?

How long did you wait before you pulled the battery?, You may have to go into Recovery mode and Restore a Backup. You Did do a Backup First Right?

Yes. How do I get there?

Turn off the phone, battery pull, put the battery back in and hold down the x-key while powering up. That'll put you into recovery. Good Luck!

apply sdcard:update.zip?

What IS the update.zip?

You NEED to do a nandroid restore to the last know good state and figure out what went wrong before you apply it again methinks...

What IS the update.zip?

Well, it didn't work so i have the option to reboot, factory reset, wipe cache, or install zip from sdcard

so I scroll to nandroid and click that?

Ok it's working now, thanks.

For all the noobs out there, what exactly did you do to get it working?
