how did you get it out of that colorful load screen? i just flashed my rom using rom manager and installed a different rom from the roms list in rom manager and when it finished installing the rom, it rebooted and it's been stuck on this scren ever since. any advise?

Welcome, unikr0n! (Nice name, BTW.)

Have you tried pulling the battery?

Or boot into recovery & wipe the cache & dalvick cache.
Rom mangler isn't needed for these phones. Installing a rom through recover with a clean wipe is the best way, imho

ok i got it booted it up again. thanks guys. here's what i'm having trouble with though (ultimately). i wanted to unlock it. flash the stock rom with clockworkmod and then root it. little did i know though that i can't get the 4.0.4 update after i installed clockworkmod. i read that i had to unlock it and instal the ota update and THEN install the custom rom.

unless i flash it with a custom rom that also allows ota updates also. so whats the best thing to do in my situation? i've been researching and flashing for literally hours now. i'm quite new to flashing roms so i've been doing tons of googling but can't seem to find anything solid until i stumbled apon this forum. any ideas on what custom rom i should get? i've got the lte gnex
