It was just sitting on my desk yesterday when I try to turn it on and it won't work. I pulled the battery out and now when I try to turn it on, it gets stuck on the words or the blue swirl. I can't get it into the recovery boot or safe mode, the only thing i can do is the custom firmware thing but I don't know if I need to download anything or what, it just stays on that screen. Last night I kept trying to start it and one time it finally got all the way to loading my home wallpaper, but 3 seconds later it restarted. i had it insured for $6 a month and the carrier is giving me a bs $200 deductible for a refurbished one, while boost mobile offers them brand new for $180. I d on't know if I can fix this myself or go to a repair store or if it's fixable at all. I am also considering upgrading, all I know is I'm not paying $200 for something so obsolete.
