    Stuck in boot loop, screen won't turn on.

    So I attempted to bring my phone back to stock by flashing a PB31IMG RUU to my phone to unroot it.

    It installs, completes, and prompts me to reboot.

    I reboot, and it turns off, vibrates to tell me it's on, and then the screen just doesn't work. I know it isn't bricked, because I can still plug it in and the LED does turn on. And every time I take out the battery to try and turn it on again, it still seems to turn on. I'm fairly certain I can boot into recovery, although it's difficult to say, as obviously I lack a display to check on that.

    Is there anything I can do? Or is it time to surrender it to Best Buy? (Since I have their protection plan)

    P.S. I'm running Verizon's Froyo.

    How To: Unroot the HTC Incredible | TheUnlockr

    I
    t's unfortunate. I never bothered to look at the comments until after it was done. Haha. However, it's not a complete brick.

    I took it to Best Buy and played dumb. They said the battery fried the system and they're swapping it.

    You were loading the wrong PB31IMG file, recovery was possible, but I'm glad you were able to get it swapped out.

    You can use the PB31IMG file from Stock Images | PvilleComp&#039;s.

    Do I rename the zip, put it on the SD card then reboot the phone?
