The Short: Phone stuck on black screen with a picture of a phone in the middle with a red exclamation point in a triangle.
The Details: My phone started acting funny today. Apps wouldn't work, the Market was acting funny, not installing anything. Tonight it started getting slow and so I started deleting apps that I don't use anymore. I noticed that my battery drained about 30% in about 3 minutes. So I turned my phone off, and turned it back on. It would get to the 4G splash screen and then reset again, again and again. I've had this infinite boot loop happen before so I figured I would bite the bullet and reset my phone to factory settings. I took the battery out, put it back in, held down the volume down button and turned it on. I was presented with the options of fastboot, recovery, clear storage, etc. I was on the bus and forgot which one i picked last time, so I figured i would just try "recovery." It started to reset, and then all of a sudden went black except for a picture of a phone in the middle of the screen with a red exclamation point in a triangle over it. I took the battery out and tried to do this again, but now I can't even get in to those recovery options, it just goes right to that black screen with the phone and triangle. Anyone out there know how to fix this? At this point, I don't care about my info on my phone, I just need my phone to be functional tomorrow. Thanks.
