are we SOL? Im running Liquid froyo and tried to install the watermrked theme. My phone has some gobbledy gook (text) on the front and will unlock but then gives me an OFF error message w/two options neither of which will get the OFF error message to go away. When i do the x and power recovery, none of the reboot options get me out of the mess.

Ive seen that some others have had similar, if not the exact same thing happen, and they used RSDLite to restore their phones. Im running a mac and from what I can tell RSD isnt an option. Would anybody kindly give me some suggestions?

if you can get into recovery you can fix your phone 99.9% of the time. The easiest solutions to try are restoring a backup, wiping data and cache, or just flashing a different rom.

sbf flash and a linux boot disk

I haven't had to mess with it yet, but that would probably be your best bet
