I messed up BAD

Please excuse my lack of knowledge with all of this, when I unlocked and rooted I downloaded fastboot adb files and exctracted them to a "root" folder on C/ drive. I really don't know if I have SDK or not

If you rooted with that folder, it should work. Plug your phone in and boot into fastboot mode. Open a command prompt and type "fastboot devices". If your phone is listed, I think you should be good to go. You can drop the restore images into that folder and push them to the phone. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
 
I know this is above and beyond the call of duty...but would anyone be willing to "crossloop" into my computer? I wouldn't ask if I wasn't in desperation. I can send donations via paypal.

I am more familair with MAC at the moment...I havent used windows in years however I am on windows 7 right now since there isn't much a MAC can do in this situation. Please PM me for a crossloop code if any of you are willing. Unfortunatley its either this..or Resurrect the droid X. Im not ready for the gnex to be my daughters toy phone quite yet:blink:

Don't panic. This is completely fixable. Just had to restore mine last night to take it in for a screen warranty issue.

"fastboot devices" is not recognized as an internal or external command etc....
 
Is this the computer you rooted on? If so are the necessary drivers still installed? In device manager is the phone recognized? If you are on a windows machine now, you should be able to connect the phone normally while on (assuming you have the samsung drivers) and access the SD card. Drop a new ROM on there, boot into recovery, choose the zip and flash it. No need for fastboot or adb.

yes...samsung drivers are installed, however phone is not recognized
 
Boot it up and see if the computer recognizes it. If you can browse the SD card, you should be able to do what I suggested above.

OK got it to connect to windows....problem is that my phone no longer has Clockwork, So I do not have the option to flash a zip

edt, I guess I could drop clockworks apk on sd as long as i can bypass having to type in my name etc... to get clockwork running. What so you think?

Do you mean you no longer have ROM Manager? You don't need ROM Manager to manually flash a ROM with clockworkrecovery. Is your custom recovery (ie clockworkrecovery) still in place?

Sorry for not clarifying, no clockwork recovery is no longer in place. i would need to re-install rom manager to flash it again

edt...crap, I dont have root explorer to access the apk

I wish i could execute the apk from my laptop, don't think thats going to happen
