try turning the phone back off then slide the keyboard back open hold up and the power button, you will go into bootloader mode, from there you can connect it to your computer and SBF bomb, if you need help with that process heres a link to a complete walkthrough

Follow the link posted by flame, and in this thread last night I posted a youtube video. Watch that because it is very similar to what you will have to do. The difference is you will have to flash 2 sbf files instead of 1.

After all this time and trying various things and staring at the recovery screen it is very important that you have either recharged the battery in another phone or external charger or have gotten another battery to use. You have almost certainly drained this one and it cannot charge while in recovery or bootloader.

This will be a big problem if it loses power during a flash operation.
It's probably the only way you could really screw up your phone while attempting to recover from this mess.

Good luck! You will get good help here but I wanted to be sure you understood how important it is to have a charged battery and why.

 

[MischiefsMommy]

I cant charge the battery while in recovery?? I had it in the docking sttion all night!! That wasnt charging it??

 

[CellZealot]

Nope, sorry. This is a big issue for people in your position who may spend a long time in the process of recovering their phones...for whatever reason.

If you don't have another phone or external charger I really recommend getting a replacement battery, which you can always use anyway in the future.

I am not trying to be an alarmist but you do not want to run out of power in the middle of a flash cycle. You will have no way to recover at that point without a freshly charged battery and the possibility of permanently damaging the phone is very real.

ok?
