    Help! Rooting might have bricked my phone...

    So, there I was, meticulously follinwg the instructions to root my Eris...as I powered her back up with the Volume Down and Power button, I scrolled to Recovery...all seemed well...and then - BAM! Now I have a picture that comes up of my phone and a big red triangle with an exclamation point.

    Please tell me I haven't bricked my phone!!!!!

    Thanks.

    Your phone is not bricked. You're just seeing the stock recovery screen.

    Here's a link to a recent thread that covered your problem.

    Obviously, if this doesn't do the trick, check back, and someone will be along to help.
