Hi y'all
I've tried unlocking my SX56/XDA from ATT and all went well using the XDAUnlocker tools and roms etc...., but.....
while 'flashing' the rom my pc crashed and rebooted. now my sx56 is stuck in the 'upgrading; will only take 5 minutes' screen. I've tried a hard reset and that don't work. I can't even get the phone connected with activesynch
Can anybody help me please??

Thx; a newbie

Just sat here and browsed the forum for any possible help regarding my problem; there is a solution I'm going to try out.
Flash the rom (build w/ lumpistefan rom kitchen) via bootloader with SD card; now all I need is to buy a SD/MMC cardwriter and I'm on my way.......
Will let you guys know what happens because I've found more peeps with the same prolem.
Oh a quick note: I've bootloader 5.22 and it does recognize a new rom when inserting a SD card with rom; it will ask you to format or download....... Well here goes nothing :)

As long as you can get to bootloader it should be fine for sd flashing.
