I'm really sorry to bother everyone with something like this, as new as I am to this I knew beforehand this was root 101 and completely forgot about it as I was putting gingerbread on my phone.

Right now, my phone just has the word android in the middle of it and a black screen behind it, and keeps repeating this every 30 seconds to a minute. I'm honestly not sure how to fix it or if it even can be fixed, if anybody could help a bit though, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks ahead of time.

Edit: Also, I did look around before posting this and all I found was the PSA on these forums to not flash roms with low battery, figured I should mention.
 
You mean <20% I assume.

Try charging the phone with your AC charger. Then unplug the charger and pull the battery. Now replace the battery and try booting into recovery holding X +power button. If you can get into recovery you may be able to reflash a ROM.

I've never had this problem and I am not sure this is the correct procedure. It's just what I would try first if I was in your situation.

Good luck :)
