    I can't boot my phone

    I'm a complete noob at this stuff, but I've been browsing the site and everyone here seems friendly, So...

    This morning i downloaded romtoolbox from the app store and downloaded a boot animation and custom font. Immediately, the boot animation was all that appeared on the screen. I figured I would just pull the battery and it would be a quick fix. Wrong. The boot animation would not leave the screen, even after I left it alone for over an hour. I googled my situation and entered clockwork mod, i wiped cache partition and devik cache. Still didn't work.

    Now I had just finished a graveyard shift and I'm getting really irritated, I figure what I will do is delete everything I can with clockwork mod, and I'll be able to start fresh...

    Well, now when I turn my phone on, it shows the google logo then goes straight to clockwork mod, no matter what. If I go into recovery mode it will show an android laying on his back with a red exclamaiton mark above him. My clockwork mod says my sdcard can't be mounted

    I dont know what to do. I've toyed around with different toolkits, but if someone could give me specific instructions, I would be really grateful!

    Welcome to the forum, sorry it had to be under these circumstances. This thread would probably be a good place to start to get everything back.

    dit: I am sure a member of the rescue squad will be along shortly to help, they will want to know which version of the phone you have CDMA or GSm and which carrier.

    You have somehow lost root. IMO I think you should try getting back to stock. You can use Odin (see above post) or you can use toolkit that you used to root.






    Before you flash anything can you get back to stock? How to get back to stock using Odin



    Have you backed up your files and pictures? I see too many desperate cries for help recovering deleted priceless pictures with no solution.

    Which toolkit are you using? Are you on GSM or VZW?

    Who is your service provider and which country are you from?

    Im from Canada and my service provider is Sasktel

    EDIT: Now when I try to turn my phone on either in download mode or recovery mode or normal, it has a picture of a phone and a line connecting it to a computer monitor and in between the two is a exclamation mark

    EDIT 2: I got the phone back to stock. When my phone was stuck on that screen, odin still recognized it and I used odin to flash back. Thanks for the replies guys!
