rename zip to PG86IMG.zip
put it on root of your sd card
boot into bootloader
bootloader should recognize it
press volume up to install
once your reboot, delete or rename the zip or bootloader will make you flash it again...
... im in bootloader. Hboot-1.57. im pressing up .. its just moving from through the options Bootloader, Reboot, Reboot Bootloader and Power down ....
make sure it is named pg86img.zip and at the root of your sdcard... bootloader cant recognize it if it isn't

No other options??
is "Up" the only thing i need to do to flash it after booting into bootloader ?
Use file browser on phone to be 100% sure that it it doesn't say .zip.zip at the end of the file due to Windows??
using ES File Explorer, it says PG86IMG.zip, Type: File, Path:/sdcard, Size:8.05 MB, Readable: Yes, Writable: Yes and Hidden: No.

try to rename it but forget the .zip part... just pg86img ... i dont use es file explorer but it might be one of those programs that hides the extensions....

no other options. i booted in through fastboot commands. now im just moving through Bootloader, Reboot, Reboot Bootloader and Power Down with "up"..
try booting manually... boot into bootloader by holding down the volume down button and hitting the power button... it has to be something you are doing wrong (no offense) cause everything seems right... so tell us exactly how you boot into bootloader and what happens as soon as you are in bootloader... also please rename the file back from pg86img to pg86img.zip
Ok, I see, those are the standard fastboot options, sorry, it's been a while since I was there.
Do I understand that you also tried to fastboot flash from your pc?
No problem, im very happy already that you guys r willing to help ! I held down volume down and power button for about 8 secs then phone booted into bootloader. it was checking something, it went by too fast i didn't have a chance to take note of what was being checked. Now its in bootloader its showing something different. now i have Fastboot, Recovery, Factory reset, simlock and Image Crc.
okay... this is a good sign... you were in fastboot before but you should have been in regular bootloader... when it was checking, did it locate the file??? if not... try both versions... pg86img.zip and just pg86img and see if it recognizes any... you will know when it does because it will ask if you want to update (flash)
if it does... do the volume up thing to confirm and you will be good to go..
I made two versions of the zip file. One PG86IMG, one PG86IMG.zip. booted into bootloader and it was truly scanning for PG86IMG.zip i paid attention and saw. But neither files were detected....
