Everything except for what you stated in the OP seems to be working. I just factory reset my phone and restoring my nandroid backup now to double check that. when you do a factory reset it reboots into recovery and gets stuck in the recovery loop also. this time only took a second to get back going. will let you know shortly.

EDIT : I did a full Nandroid backup. Factory reset phone( Had the recovery loop issue upon completion) . Restored Nandroid backup and everything is completely restored. Now I feel like a kid at Christmas !

When I used it on my device it would not let me even get through because I presume the touch screen was diabled. I had to flash my firmware again. ****ing sucks
