that is the fastboot screen select bootloader and that should take you to hboot and recovery. you might need to wipe and re-flash your rom.
 
i tried to rewipe unless I missed something, I go to
Recovery
then wipe
then wipe date/factory rest
then wipe cache
then wipe dalvik/cache
then go to flash zip from sdcard
then flash KingsRom.zip
then reboot
Is that right

i would also recommend using king's format all or calkulin's format all .zip (they are both the same just named different) you can get calkulin's formats all in the rom/kernel sticky. just keep in mind that it only works with clockwork mod 2.6 and amon ra 2.3.

you can also wipe like three times and try to flash again.

or you can re-download and re-flash. it could be bad download or a bad flash.
 
im sorry it is kingsrom FORMAT_all.zip does that mean no wipe is need it and how does the amon ra one work cause i have that file on my sdcard now PCM136.zip(or something like that) do i do that first or after i flash rom?

ok so amon ra 2.3 is a recovery that you use to flash and make nandroid backups with. it is a much better recovery in my opinion then clockwork mod. it just does a much better job at wiping. so yes you would have to switch before flashing. also keep in mind that you can't use your previous clockwork mod nandroids with amon ra.


and the format's all does wipe but i would do that in addition to wiping.

and as long as it is named "PC36IMG" with no extra ".zip" as windows hides extensions, you should be good to go. just transfer the file to the root of your sd card(no folder) and then power off. then press power+vol down and select yes to update. once it is done select no to reboot so that you cane select recovery to go to amon ra2.3 and either make a nandroid(if your current rom works) or flash a rom.

when making a nandroid, select the first three already selected and then wimax (have atleast one nandroid with wimax selected and saved on your computer. after that you do not need to save wimax every time)
