ok tryed it again ! and same results, just loads up to windows screens and if you wait it will say "Tap here to begin" and is frozen. What rom should i update it with to get this thing working ? I still can load it back into the 1.20 bootloader mode without any problem. Idea's ?

You used the wrong unlocked bootloader; 1.20 is for the old, 2.x level ROMs and 1.x radios. Now you need to flash an old ROM and radio, then you can install the proper, 2.40 unlocked bootloader, and follow that with a 3.x level ROM and radio.

Link to Sprint 2.17 ROM and 1.47 Radio

Why are you trying to flash an Alltel ROM if you don't mind me asking? Are you on the Alltel network? If you are on Sprint you should stay with Sprint.

Click either in my original post or in the copy below where it says "Link to Sprint 2.17 ROM and 1.47 Radio" and flash that package, which will give you both the radio and ROM you need to boot up with the 1.20 unlocked bootloader. Then download the 2.40 unlocked bootloader, install it, and then you can flash the newer ROM and radio combination.

You also might want to read some of the "how to flash a ROM" tutorials available on this site. Maybe start with the threads linked here: Where are all the Stickies? In Here!!

Did you successfully flash that ROM upgrade package? What ROM and radio versions display on the screen as it boots up (the D and R numbers in the bottom right of the screen)? What bootloader version displays in bootloader mode?
