Is it showing "USB" very fiently on the screen? If so you may need to do the Putty usb port change to break out of boot loader....

ok,

I was trying to upgrade my ROM, which I've done like 5 or six times before with the same phone, but now when upgrading my ROM, it sits in Bootloader and I can not get out of it.

What is "the Putty usb port change" trick? I can't find any info on it.

The program is called mtty.exe (they guy who gave me a copy called it Putty... don't know why)

Anywho

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=304408 Helmi C has a nice walk through in the upgrade section

1. Install mtty

2. Connect your device

3. open mtty

4. select USB as your connection
This will open a window that looks like a telnet console

5. type "set 14 0"
this modifies the speed and timeout I think....

6. flash your device again
From this point forward it is recommended you continue to use the same USB port for all flashing operations.

Hope this helps.
