There in lies the rub, I can't boot up my phone or boot it to recovery. I need to clear the PG051 file off the SD card before it will let me boot into recovery. When I try booting up normally, it gets frozen at the Thunderstorm boot up screen. Thats what caused the initial problem in the first place.

Oooooooh yeah I gotcha...definitely need that card reader then...they're cheap....that's a real bummer tho...I'm sure that once you are able to delete that file then you will be good to go

Went and bought a memory card reader and deleted the offending PG051 file and BAM! I was able to launch into recovery and restore my last backup. Back in the saddle again. I think there's a song there somewhere.

*edit* Got it

Arg, it didn't work for me. I can get into recovery, but when I go to restore a backup I get:

"Error while formatting /system!"


Anyone have any ideas?

*Edit* I was able to fix it by downloading Bamf 1.6.3 and placing it directly on my SD card. I did have to rename it update.zip in order for it to show up on the phone, but it seems to have worked.
