I took it to a sprint store and after and hour, the tech said the phone doesn't work so they ordered me one. but i was just curious if folks here are faniliar wiht this sceen.
if i try to just turn the phone on, it will not boot up. after the "touch diamond" screen its goes black and the buttons light up. phone is also completely stock.
There's probably nothing wrong with your phone ... you are in "bootloader" mode. In order to do a factory reset, do the following ...

Take your battery out of the phone for a minute or so, then put it back in. Then hold the volume down button and the ok button (center of the dial), and with both of these being held down ... then push and hold the power on button ... and follow directions. Be sure to do the power on button last, as that will turn on your phone.
