Serious issue...can't figure out...bricked phone!

I am running ONIX's Rom and had been having a hard time with nothing installing from the Market. The install button would gray out and nothing would happen. I tried to restore an earlier ROM that worked with wipe of data and cache and it didn't work, it continued to boot up in ONIX. I tried this a couple times. Then it suddenly got stuck in a boot loop on ONIX that I can't get out of. I have done battery pulls and tried to get into recovery (holding the power and pressing the X) and that isn't working. If I plug it into my usb on my computer, the phone isn't recognized so I'm stuck. What can I do? I'm really stuck.

 

No...I can't get into anything. Nothing I have tried worked. Holding the power and the X won't get me into Recovery. I''ve tried to get into safe mode by holding the Power button and the keyboard scroll pad button. Nothing will work. It just keeps booting to the bootanimation screen and is stuck doing the same thing over and over.

How would I get into bootloader? I never had to get into so I don't know if I actually would be able to.

When I take the battery cover off, I see to the top left there is an opening with a white dot with a red cross on it. I have tried pressing that with a pencil, thinking maybe that was some sort of factory reset. Any idea on what that does?

 

I wasn't holding the d-pad in the right direction, I just did it and got the bootloader. Where can I get the .sbf file?

thanks for the help!

 

Thanks to both of you guys! I really appreciate the help. I haven't done it yet since I'm still at work but I will take care of this when I get home on my computer. You have pointed me in the right direction and with the instructions and links you gave me, I should be good to go and will be back rooting and hacking my droid once again.

 

I'm still having issues. Downloaded and loaded the drivers, RSBlite, the flash file but RSBlite won't recognize my phone. When I click on Show Device nothing happens and the screen in bootloader doesn't do anything when I press the start button.

I've re-downloaded and re-installed several times but getting same results.

I'm using Windows 7 home (32-bit)

When I plug the phone into the USB cable is does recognize it's plugged in so I don't believe it's the cable so I'm at a loss again. Stuck.
