Ill do this a few times over the weekend and hopefully I can get up and running again. I will let you know how I get on.


Thanks

Well I'd have to agree with dublinz then...

so I gave this a go over the weekend and flashed maybe up to 10 times the ICS IMG.

Unfortunately it hasnt worked and Im left with my device looping.

so its off to the phone shop today and hopefully it can be fixed. Pity I rooted it and flashed the ROM as it should still be under warranty but I have voided that now

Flashing the ICS PG58IMG.zip doesn't replace the recovery.
Fix recovery first. Use stock recovery. When you get that working, change to "simple" cwm recovery.

thanks for the advise. It makes perfect sense as it appears it is my stock recovery that is broken.

however, I have searched around and cannot find a stock recovery image that I can flash as PG58IMG.zip.

Any help would be much appreciated.

before flashing stock recovery...can you try this first
get this recovery image
and flash the recovery via fastboot

steps:
1.go to fastboot in your device and connect it to your pc (after this device should read fastboot usb)
2.get the adb/fastboot setup ready guide here
3.go to your adb folder and place the downloaded recovery.img there
4.type fastboot devices (it should show your device serial number)
5.now to flash type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

this should do...if it didnt work then let me know ASAP...then we'll think of other solutions

I remembered incorrectly, it was only CWM and 4EXt
