Root Help!!!!

[Deleted User]

Just upgraded from BAMF 1.5 to 1.6.

did a few things no problem---

first thing i go to do is add a new battery mod which i have done before no problem--

i went to rom manager and clicked "install ROM from SD card"

-click the battery mod and it appeared to be restarting--

now it seems to be stuck at the white HTC screen

dont want to take out the battery and do anything stupid.

for the record, 1.6.1 was running great.

any idea what i should do? been about 4 min still on white screen?

please help!!

if its still on the white screen,go ahead and pull the battery(been 10 minutes since your post). you can power on again and see if it boots,this time. if it does,great. prollem solved. if not you will need to enter clockwork recovery and either restore a backup,or wipe and flash your rom again.

if youre not familiar with manually doing things in clockwork recovery,id reccomend that you become so,for this reason. rom manager is fine when its there and working,but it does you no good when your stuck at the spash screen

Scotty you are a freaking lifesaver!

Battery pulled, everything started up, just as i left it. first smartphone, first rooted phone, everythings cool!

for future reference-- sometimes when i went into clockwork mod, not all my zip files would show up-- only 1 or 2. then when i went to "install ROM from SD" there were 10 or 11 files. any idea why this is? also, when im adding small mods, (battery, transition etc) do i need to wipe all the caches every time??

also- after a completed zip update, can i choose another option to install another zip right there? or do i have to fully restart before entering clockwork again?

_thx in advance for any response and also for the previous. huge scare there!

also, when im adding small mods, (battery, transition etc) do i need to wipe all the caches every time?? prolly not,but i would

_thx in advance for any response and also for the previous. huge scare there!no prollem. like i said,glad it booted up after the battery pull

Flash 1.6.2 first, then try the battery mod again with the 1.6.2 battery mod in pilots thread. 1.6.2 running awesome so far.
