Root Phone wont start? help urgently please!!! will pay anyone who helps me sort this problem out!!!!!!

Ok, you have power, so your phone appears to be stuck in a 'boot loop'. In other words it is trying to boot up but some glitch is preventing the home screen from appearing and it is sticking at the boot logo.

The only way to sort it is to do a Hard Reset

The Recovery menu will appear. Follow the instructions in the link. This will factory reset your phone back to its original state. You will lose your data though. If you have an SD card and SIM card in the phone take them out first BEFORE doing your hard reset.

Let the phone reset itself and the home screen should appear. Swith it off and re-insert your SD card and SIM card. Then switch on again.
