Default Stuck in boot screen after CM update through Rom Manager

Got notification to update to the latest CM, clicked ok on everything, phone rebooted, now stuck on boot screen.

Can enter CWM but nothing functions, cannot choose update from SD or anything.

Please help..

(Did search, probably not good enough, but nothing came up. Am also new to the Rom Manager thing. Please don't flame if this is answered somewhere already..)

Did you make a nandroid backup? I always make one 'just in case' before I update.
Current devices:
Phones:
Motorola QUENCH (Cliq XT) rooted running adlxmod.
Samsung Galaxy S2 (i9100) rooted running Charmeleon.
Tablets:
Ainol Novo 7 Venus pre-rooted running stock firmware.
Successful deals:

Thanks for the quick reply!

Am not sure I did; I think it asked me if I wanted to back up the current rom and I think I clicked not to. Either way, I cannot do anything in CWM, what ever I choose gets stuck at the little hat with the arrow and I have to pull the battery.

It's not a big deal (I hope at least) to revert back to an original image, as it's my back-up phone so I don't use it daily. Hope it's easier than that though..

I would say reverting back to an original image via the passimg trick would be your best option right now (unless your bootloader is unlocked?)

It is unlocked. Any magic trick..?!

EDIT: I can enter the options in CWM. Being used of the Atrix I was pressing the on/off button instead of the trackball to choose. Ffs.. Anyway, I tried wiping the data, no go; still stuck on bootscreen

I would try restoring a backup if you have one. If not, just do a wipe and clean install...

Unlocked bootloader could've been used to install a new recovery, though that now looks it was operator error... xD

Unhappy I have kind of the same issue but I am still stuck..

I have an unlocked bootloader and rooted atrix, everything was fine until I installed gingerblur through the cwm ( I chose to install from the sd card ), once I did that it finished what it was doing then I used the reboot feature through cwm. My phone is now not moving past the motorola dual core screen. It still says unlocked at the top left and I can still enter cwm and fastboot. I have read alot about trying to flash through fastboot, but I am sorry I am a newb and do not know how to flash through fastboot. I am desperate for help... any help would greatly be appreciated.

If you can still access recovery, I would try a full wipe and instal again...
