Oh *#$!*$^$#@ what did I do??

[SpikeJones]

Something terrible happened.

I know this probably wasnt smart of me at all.

But, I removed my battery because my phone wasn't charging, and sort of kind of bumped the sim card slot.

I pushed it back in, and placed my battery back, but when I powered my phone on, I got a white screen with a list of options.

it says, verbatim....

<VOL DOWN> to next item
<POWER> to select item

FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
FACTORY RESET
SIMLOCK
HBOOT USB
IMAGE CRC

What happened?
Is my phone broken/bricked/damaged/gone for good/a need to curse to the air?

Is there something I should do?
Should I select an item?

Haha, relax, you're just in the bootloader. Select Fastboot, then select reboot and your phone should boot up normally.

 

[zshazz]

By the way, the way you accessed that was by accidentally pressing the volume down button when you powered the phone on

 

[SpikeJones]

You are both lifesavers.

 

[Smitty_82]

Your phone is not bricked, it looks like what ever you did just caused the phone to boot into recovery. I would select fastboot and it should restart. Not sure exactly but that is what I would do.

Edit: Haha, looks like I type too slow

 

[SpikeJones]

Note to the moderators?
Would it be alright to close this?
I fixed everything, and I got the wonderful help I needed.
(Not that I am telling you how to do your job and what not...but...
I'm just going to be quiet now.)

It's good you asked though and I'm sure others will ask later.

I learned that holding down while powering on takes you to the bootloader. now I wont **** a brick when it happens to me

Thank y'all, wife did same with hers not more than 10 minutes after I read this post yesterday.

Learning experience for me... I wasn't sure how to boot my TBolt into recovery. Thanks!

question. I rooted my phone. Wasn't happy with it so I unrooted it. Does this mean it is back to stock?

If you could tell me it would be a great help. When I was rooted it said S-OFF

Yup back to stock. To double check you can try downloading super user from the market.
