LOL

That's exactly what is supposed to happen. Task 29 wipes the rom portion of memory so your device won't boot because there is no rom to boot.

Put your device in bootloader and flash a rom.

Have you already HSPL Unlocked?
If not the only rom you can flash is a shipped rom.

i thought this was funny too. i dont think task29 can even be flashed without being unlocked first

With the phone OFF, press+hold volume down. Keep holding it and press+hold power button. The phone will turn on in bootloader (tri-color screen).

sorry but i have to laugh but a lot of people that does a task 29 for the 1st time gets this little scare, myself included. I only change roms/task29 every few months and i still forget the sequence to get into bootloader. I have it on a cheat sheet that i refer to.

Humm... what Rom are you going to flash. Mamy Roms come with the RUU! Yes, the correct RUU will flash your device if it is in bootloader.

My friend flash Energy Rom Dinik's "Anastasia" and its running like a charm..... But i have to wait till tues to see what it looks like. lol Next time..... i will get this shit right!

But in the long run can still add CAB's even when i put the Rom on there cause i wanna put swype on my phone, AP mobile and some games?
