I installed titanum backup, tried to uninstall flash before flashing a new rom, it says that it will restart twice... but all i get is this..


I made a short video of the problemo

UPDATE: I have just got to boot HBOOT,

Fast boot
Recovery
Clear storage
SIMLOCK
HBOOT USB


However, when it tries to boot into recovery, same thing happens as in the video.


THanks guys!
 
Yup, says s-off...

This is HBOOT 0,97

I hold down the power because that seems to be only way into HBOOT, pressing them after the phone gets power doesnt seem to work.

what is on your sd card? (pc36img files etc?) it is trying to install something

from what I understand you are most likely not bricked. you can get the phone to come on and get into hboot and recovery so it's prolly salvageable
 
IT wont go into recovery... See what happens in the vid. As son as I press "recovery" it loops into that loading animation
 
Pulled out SD CARD, booted fine.. although my battery was out of the phone for a good 2 or 3 minutes.. I also just backed up my data just in case. Thanks so much for you helps guys!

I made this rage comic using my art skills on behalf of all my issues, and probably others' as well.

Kept trying rewriting itself over the ROMS's version.. therefore Hulu wouldn't work...

I think the question was more, why uninstall flash if you're going to flash a ROM over it? It's just going to get overwritten. The biggest problem people have is they forget to just go to the market and uncheck the option to automatically update flash. Same goes for most google apps if you don't want them auto updating.
