Try volume up and power or volume down and power (not sure which one it is). The button combo changes with the new bootloaders.

You probably need to flash the stock JVB file again, then follow the instructions with the ROM. I'm not completely familiar with the installation procedures for those ROMs, so you'll have to use whatever they give you.

i really dont want to bother you even though you have helped me soooooo much but i dont know what to do after the download mode cuz im trying to get it stock again so i can atleast get contacts and msg and all that again and try to flash it again tomorrow. but if you could give me a quick walkthrough with the stock back and then a small one for the perception 2.3 that would be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO helpful

There's a factory restore link in my sig, use that to get back to stock. Like I said I'm not familiar with the installation procedures with the new Gingerbread ROMs so I wouldn't feel comfortable explaining it, but there are a few people around here that have installed them that could probably help you out with that. The main thing is make sure you read and understand the directions the developer provides.

No download mode? (old or new way). Try plugging it in to your computer and seeing if you get a response. Did everything flash normally?

That is not a "cannot do anything" situation. You are fine.

From the previous posts, it sounds like you did get the new bootloaders loaded. VOLDWN+power is Download Mode (down for download), and VOLUP+Power for Recovery.

Also, if you hold VOLDWN and plug in USB, should take you immediately to Download.

Now that you are that screen, it may be a little harder,. but you should still be able to get there. There are numerous instructions to do it using the old bootloader... not sure if the process would have changed now. What is your current status?
