Menu and Search buttons don't work, can't boot

[k22]

Yeah so, I went to SBF back to 2.1 and OTA since I haven't been able to use the Menu and Search buttons since using the update.zip leaked Gingerbread. Now the phone won't boot past the red 'M'. I can boot into the exclamation point next to the android guy, but I can't press my Search button. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get the phone back, I don't need anything on the SD card or phone itself. I obviously can't take it to Verizon though.

Thanks, and sorry if this is in the wrong place/already answered.

if you sbf'd back to 2.3.340 from gingerbread then when you are in the recovery screen and see the android guy and the /!\ you might want to try pressing both volume buttons to see if that will get you in to recovery and do a data wipe. i may be totally off base but i think that's what stage of the sbf you were at right?

Sorry, I think I got my terminology wrong. I used a SBF file in RDSLite (is that what it's called?) and when it went to reboot...well, here we are. I apparently killed the battery waiting for it to boot later. So you want me to boot into the /!\ android thing and press the volume buttons?

Volume buttons didn't do anything. Search button still doesn't work.

Update. I used a SBF that apparently screwed me over. I boot straight into the bootloader now, no recovery.

The Situation: I was on OTA root. I then used a leaked gingerbread update.zip and updated. I want to revert back to whatever version can get me back on OTA. I attempted to, and am now locked at the bootloader.

I'm desperate for help at this point. I'd even be willing to pay for help.
