[Solved] phone keeps rebooting/shutting down, even on bootloader mode, wtf?

I have the rhodium energy rom 6.5 with sense and gtx. here. I think the issue is that i installed the overclock tool (by ninja duck), and set it to about 730mhz (set on boot) - and whenever i turn it on, it will turn off right when os loads (right when the music starts to play).. and then a few mins later it will try to reboot again on it's own only to fail again. When i set it to bootloader mode, it will restart on its own after a minute or so...

Help please! need my phone back!

Your overclock is probably causing it to reboot. Is the overclock installed to the sd card? If so, take it out and try to power it on. On mine, it's running the script off my sd card but going from the shortcut in my windows/startup folder. So if the card isn't there it can't do the overclock. It's been a while since playing with the OC though so I might be way off.

If that doesn't work, you can always hard reset. With the phone off, hold end + talk + power simultaneously.
