Root overclocked, phone keeps restarting

Hi all,

I overclocked my phone to 1250mhz @ 58 and now it keeps restarting over and over. Is there any way I can un-brick this thing? I was using JRummy's Droid Overclock app.
 
Yeah, unfortunately. Tried doing battery pulls and that doesnt seem to help it. It'll get past the initial "Android" logo, and I'll be able to slide my thumb across the screen to unlock the phone, but it never gets far enough to be unlocked and allow me access to the app.
 
Maybe if you did it really fast. you have about 10 seconds by default (i think) before the OC is applied. I'm far from an SBF expert do I don't want to try helping on that front.
 
Thanks, although I saw somewhere that going to 340 could break things.

SBF is almost done. Looks to be working. When I have it back up and running on stock firmware I'll do the upgrade to 340 OTA
 
in the future make sure your device is stable with the OC before you set it to apply on boot...this should prevent you from boot looping. Good Luck!
 
Thanks, I should have known that but was a little too gutsy :D

Soo.. how do I upgrade this over the air? I thought there was an auto upgrade option somewhere >.>

It won't break anything using 2.3.340 full sbf.

the 2.3.320 sbf you applied is a leak and will stop an ota from going through ,,,,,like bochigo suggested you should flash the .340 full sbf as it wont break a thing
