Same thing happened to me, i was here for 3 consecutive days desperate for an answer... all right, i took a deep breath, totally forgot about my vista notebook, installed and download all the goodies to my wife's notebook with xp. my xv67 was stuck in the bootloader, so i used mtty again ( uninstall driver, install again, disable USB on active sync and enable it again... you know the drill ) so I tried to bring it back to an earlier bootloader. after I pushed the OEM aku 3.3 from utstar.com using the NOID procedure found on the stickys. the apps were giving all kinds of errors, ( this rom was not made for your phone, etc etc ) so trying different combinations, different times I was able to push an OEM RUU (noID) to the phone, then after that the kitchen ROM worked. and after all that the phone was stuck in bootloader again, the only way to get it out was using mtty with a command i found here also. beleive me, i was 100% sure i'd brick it. but I got it back. just be persistent, follow all steps posted here , use XP, be patient and you'll get it. good luck
