So your phone is in an endless reboot cycle? Try taking out the SD card - put the phone in bootloader mode and connect it to the computer. Try flashing the stock ROM.

Yup, endless reboot. Flashing the stock rom back on, hoping it's not a more serious hardware issue

Yeah not sure, cause mine always got into the first screen or so, but when it would acquire the 3G it was done for, do you have the sim card in, with mine with the sim card in it couldn't acquire any 3G and booted fully, but no data or phone of course.

So we may have different reboot issues, maybe try a boot up with the sim in or maybe try turning on wifi in wimo before booting android, or even open EPST and change to CDMA ONLY then try booting Android to see how far ya get.

I'm no expert of course LOL, just what I'd try, good luck.

sounds to me like this is more of a bootloader issue , the same one on Windows Mobile when the hspl needs to be upgraded. I would flash stock-clear storage- lock and unlock your phone again- and go from there. Android doesn't modify anything in the phone, your just running it off a storage card.

I have noticed the rebooting issue too with this build. It seems after about 4 or so reboots everything seemed to work ok without any more reboots.

Yeah use Contact Fix by www.shubaroo.com , you may need to re-run it daily or something.

this is a known issue for Google. Check their forums, we been asking for over a year to fix. Google blames it on Microsoft though. Notice how it works fine on Droid?

Your sdcard is probably partitioned differently. If so, you need to repartition it so that it just has one partition (yours probably has an extended partition with a logical partition within it).

GParted can do this, from an Ubuntu LiveCD. I'm sure there're also tools in Windows to do it, but I don't know what they are.
