3) After your done all that, goto start > settings > system > clear storage.

4) Your Done!

Sometimes the nand chip has troubles when flashing over to new / different roms and has corruption issues.

These steps will ensure a full flush, cleanout of your nand.

If you are still experiencing difficulty try this (or are seeing the image below);
1. Flash one of the shipped/stock ROMs -> http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=91940
2. Relock your phone -> http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=93252
3. Re-unlock with the HPSL (same link)
NOTE: DO NOT TRY TO UNLOCK WITH ANY OTHER HSPL OTHER THAN THE RELEASE VERSION.

I have seen it. I encountered it with Mighty's ROM after two clean flashes (both times followed by hard resets).

At that point, I decided I'd take a step back from the bleeding edge and reload 6.1 (which had/has been rock solid for me), as I need my phone to be completely reliable for work.

WTH I'd be mad pissed if that happened to me.

So, a number of people have been seeing this screen on their phones with custom ROMs flashed. This thread is attempting to determine if this is a ROM specific issue, or if it is a problem with the HSPL...

So, please post if you have seen this screen and what rom you were using when it reared it's ugly head.

I will go first; I saw this screen using MightyROM numerous times. I reflashed the HSPL and then the ROM, then hard reset with clear storage, and (so far) it hasn't come back.

Thanks all,

P.S. Mods, please leave this in the upgrades forum as it applies across the board here.

i think its funny he tried to tell the mods where to leave a thread, especially when you're telling them to leave it in the incorrect forum, thats hilarious.
