try wiping data, if that doesn't work

get D2G sbf read The DROID Wiki
verify md5 checksums, like Nemo said
flash sbf, reroot, retry rom

Thanks so much for your reply. Now I just get the M and nothing happens. When I do the cwm and try to load the sbf I get e failed to verify whole file signature. I am afraid I bricked it. I know that the backup I made died, and the SBF I tried to download didn't work. Any help would be appreciated.

How to verify md5 checksums? I tried to take it back to stock & that failed.

read wiki
rsd lite is used to flash sbf, not cwm or android recovery
or you can use ezSBF & Root 2.3.4/ 4.5.629

edit: are you sure you can still get to cwm?
did you make a nandroid backup of stock before flashing liquid?
if so restore it, try a different rom

I actually got it back to stock. sigh. I like liquid. I will try again. Thanks for your help. I used RSD lite and droid wiki to restore to stock. I will work on it tomorrow. I just got it logged into gmail and working again. Again, thanks for your response. It is comforting to know there are folks out there to help when I get in over my head!!

I had Cyanogen 7 (I think) on before and it was great too. I updated hubbys to liquid, cause he lliked the graphics. and may try it again, just not tonight!
