I finally got around to doing this, aside from a minor hiccup (noob move on my part) this went very smooth. Thanks for doing all this Rob.
:-[ Dangit, meant Drew. It was late, cut me some slack.
Thank you DREW, this was pretty simple.
Quick boot doesnt run because it needs root access and after i install V9 install Xoinia clockwork and then install VD its not rooted anymore so ya cant get into the custom recovery cause of that. and i have a phone with the new screen. I had to follow step 2.
For the quickboot steps you can substitute
1) power down phone
2) home + vol- + power
This will get you into recovery, same as quickboot would have done.
Blank Screen on Recovery
Recovery mode is black screen with xionia still can you tell me the button sequence to the steps?

Download this: Android Screencast
I discovered by accident today that Android Screencast can display the recovery mode even when it's a black screen on the device itself.
If you install CWMA 12518.4 that will resolve your blank screen problems.
I updated the instructions here to reflect that

No, it's a Java Web Start app but it requires the Android SDK and Platform-tools.
guys sorry me again i really messed up i accidentally disabled dev mode usb with screencast to put z4root on sd and now cant reeneable it! please help.
I guess that means screencast only works with USB debugging turned on?
Why are you using z4root. You already have root since you have CWMA recovery installed.
You could just use the screencast with recovery as Drew suggested.
Just put the TR1.8 zip file on your sdcard, name it update.zip
Then boot into CWMA recovery (home + vol- + power) and select
apply sdcard:update.zip
Vol-
Menu
If you are adventurous you could do it all blindly without screencast.
When TR1.8 is done installing, either it'll reboot or you should choose to reboot, I forget which.
Once TR1.8 is finished booting, you'll have root and can install CWMA v1.2518.4 so you don't have to deal with a blank screen again.
actually cwma didnt install i forgot to mentian that is why i was installing z4root. to install that cwma you told me about. now i just need to get my android dev kit running so i can see where on the menu i need to press to reenable usbdev mode. on top of that i have to use the phones internet connection to do all this(pay for it, cant afford it anymore) so Im in a rather tight spot. i had an older model of the phone but it got jacked. now on top of that my internet got hella slow. either because of the rain or because sprint knows what if doing
so now that adk is taking hella long to download and is timing out hella bad :[ if anyone could pm me a picture or two of the menu in setting and applications all the way up to getting usb dev enabled...that would be cool.

Press the "back" button 5 times to make sure you are out of any menus.
Press and hold voice command (button above camera) until you hear a beep.
Say very clearly "Application Settings"
You'll hear 2 beeps.
There will be a prompt on your screen asking if you want to open "Application Settings" It will have two choices [OK] and [Cancel]
To select OK locate the point about 1" from bottom left of screen, anywhere on the left half of screen should be fine. The width of the OK button is half the screen.
Now make sure you phone is oriented in *Landscape* mode.
There will be 4 options
Unknown sources
Manage applications
Running services
Development
Development is what you want. It is located at the bottom of the Landscape screen. Just about 1/8" to 1/4" from the bottom edge (in landscape mode, the bottom edge is actually the side of the phone). Press anywhere in that area, the option spans the entire width of the phone.
Now you will be on the Development page. It will have 3 options. The page will have status bar at the top, then a line with the name of the category "Development" then the 3 options.
USB debugging
Stay awake
Allow mock locations
USB debugging is the one you want. It is about 1/2" from the top of the screen (in landscape mode, top edge is side edge of phone). Press USB debugging.
There will be a confirmation prompt "Allow USB debugging?" with OK and Cancel as options. In landscape mode the buttons each take up half the screen. OK is on the left half of the screen about 1/4" from the bottom edge (in landscape bottom edge is side edge)
If you are successful, you should hear a bunch of USB sounds on your PC and notification sounds on your phone.
If not, press "back" button 5 times to get out of any menus and start again.

On Part 6, you forgot to put the command "adb shell" first as you did in part 5. Just a heads up. Had me confused for a second.
My my, you seem to be correct. Fixed now, thanks for pointing it out. You get a gold star
