The title was more helpful than your response.

I should have known to suspect layer 1 given my line of work...

Thanks again

Glad to hear you are back up and running.

Actually it looks like nicks response helped the op realize that the title of your posts are important, so that others having the same problem will see and maybe get the help they need without starting a new thread.

I have read several times that you should not use ROM manager on the SGS2. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this to the OP, so I'm starting to wonder if I misunderstood something?

No, ROM manager is still one of the worst things you could use on an I777. Stay away from it. I believe OP realized his mistake after the fact, he included it so that others could better answer his question and help him get his phone up and running again.

No. Just no. Titles like that (no offense to op he said in the future he'll name them more appropriately) don't help us help them. It just means we have to dig harder to help find what the problem is.
