I installed the GB leak last week, and while i liked the os, it would randomly and repeatedly lock the screen. then, when i was trying to use it today, it said that it had no network connectivity (even though it showed 3 3g bars). frustrated, i decided to reboot it. it never came back on. all i get is a backlit black screen. have tried several battery pulls, but no help. booted to bootloader to clear the cache, and after that it seemed like it was going to boot. got all the way finished with the droid red-eye, and then went back to black.

any tips on what to try? if not, looks like im heading to vzw to get a new phone this afternoon.
 
Have you tried to SBF back to stock and start over? Note that using a Linux CD and sbf_flash seems to be a lot more reliable than RSD lite.
 
It started working a few hours later. Seems to be working fine right now. Not sure what that was all about. Too bad, had already decided on the X2 as it's replacement.
