Used MT's vz7 to vz8 ....I have root on vz8 but cannot get into recovery. Every time I try I get a black screen and have to a battery pull to get phone back. I tried recovery through rom manager, manual with the power and volume, nothing but a frozen phone. Was running gingervolt vz7...... Now I'm stuck.

Do you know how to use lgpnst? Or do a hard factory reset. The info is on the forum, but if it wont boot you either have to flash a .tot or hard reset prolly both, then start over get back to rooted zv8 and use Mt's AIO or push through adb if that does not work.


***edit**

Here's what you need;

step 1 : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1337386

step 2 : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1583023

Then if Aio Zv8 dosent work

Step 3 : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1605148

Read instruction carefully and follow them to the letter and you should be fine.
Also to get out of that boot loop you can do a hard factory reset by pulling and replacing the batt then pushing power and volume down with the phone off. Or flashing a .tot

any questions, i am willing to help as i am relatively new to this myself but search the forums first the answers are there.
