Once rooted from adb shell or terminal app type:

su
cat proc/mtd

note the mtd partition # of boot & recovery.
then in the dd parts use the mtd number of your boot and recovery partitons
for example if boot is mtd3 do dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd3 of=/sdcard/boot-dump.img bs=4096

then type

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd1 of=/sdcard/boot-dump.img bs=4096
 
dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd0 of=/sdcard/recovery-dump.img bs=4096

Please upload the boot-dump.img and recovery-dump.img from your sdcard.

use google docs if you know how it's free and i won't have waiting times

You must have done something to cause this Your not screwed and you still have options. I haven't really used root toolbox but I'm guessing you accidently deleted something you shoudn't have. What apps are in your app drawer that are google related? If you can't get the 'su' prompt to work try z4root again and then try the su command to see if that helps we can manually push the apps back to your phone if you get su to work

i basically had to start from scratch.
wiped the davlik cache.
had to push the google services framework manualy
installed custom recovery.

Good to hear is there anyway that you can upload a nandroid backup version of your system and boot.img?
