Blank screen with status bar & can't boot into recovery

**jennicaw** · 10-16-2012, 12:05 AM

I was messing around with clockworkmod recovery trying to get google talk with video chat to work. I followed the directions and it messed up I guess. My phone is basically worthless right now. it rings when i get a phone call but i can't answer. When I try to boot into recovery it just restarts. it won't even let me factory reset. I have cleanROM, by the way. Just seeing if anyone can help.

Also, when it loads to my screen, it's blank with the status bar. i can't do anything on it, and it's set to charge only on USB which i can't change.

Pull battery and power, plus volume down to get into recovery.

Btw I don't think you can do anything in recovery to get those apps to work other than a superwipe and reflash or clearing your cache. It's either the Rom or user error. If those are important to you (gtalk & video chat) ask around for a Rom with those features working and flash that.

i know i don't need to go into recovery to use those apps. the instructions i followed told me to use clockworkmod and use the recovery through that, then flash the zip that had google talk on it.

i'll just have someone take my sd card into a micro sd card reader and fix it from there.
