    You need to do a nandroid restore of a good backup you made and wipe data and cache before flashing. In the process of installing what you currently have it broke root, it happens. I had to try 3 times on an older BB because it kept doing that same thing. Just run a backup and redownload and try again.

    There is a wifi fix that can be applied as an update.zip. Check out the post in the ZD area.
