so finally worked. i tried to jump gun and put it into fastboot mode and then run controlbear.exe and was doing wire trick like crazy..and that didn't work. you have to be in regular usage mode with usb debug turned on. then run the program and let the program do everything, and only when it says to "do wire trx" is when u do the wire trick. it's very explicit, so just make sure the right prompts are there for when to do what.
