After updating my phone to Gingerbread, it turned off and won't turn back on. I charged the battery and even borrowed my husbands EVO battery to see if it would turn on and nothing. When I press the power button, the white screen comes on and there is a vibrate and then it goes back off. I've tried power button and volume down to reset but can't do that either. Any help is appreciated.

please post root questions in the root section.

it sounds like you may have tried unrooting and flashed the files in the wrong order.

We will need to find the correct pc36img for your hboot. which hboot do you have?
