Hi guys, here I am again, needing help like usual 
So here's the problem and what I was doing immediately before:
I was playing a location based MMO (in the middle of performing an action) when my battery died. THe only reason I mention it is because I wonder if there isnt something that happened with the power loss + being in the middle of an action.
When I restored juice to my phone Ive got no data connection. The switch is on, but it says disconnected.
I have: checked with Boost via the website to see if they are having technical difficulties
updated all the carrier stuff (PRL etc) from wifi (which still works/phone works as well)
restored from a known working backup (custom rom, but was working up until this issue started)
restored to stock
was going to try to see if a RUU would fix it but the only one I could find was for a later HBoot and it says the device isnt connected even though the PC can see it
If RUU is the answer, then there are still hurdles. rbheromax had the only working RUU for my firmware version and im getting a 404 error when I follow the link from xda to his site. Which is also where the recovery Im going to need is at I think. I havent kept good backups of ALL the files I need after all
Thanks in advance guys
Edit: Mr. heromax has the site back up and running, but the RUU he's got is for 1.47.652.x and Im showing 1.46.40 in the HBOOT menu. RUU still wont see my device, but I know its the same version I used before. Ill get back to you guys if I figure anything out
Edit2: Apparently if I get on the phone with Boost updating the PRL works. Silly. Not Amused. RUU worked after that (figured it was time for a "fresh install") . Remeber to relock the bootloader!
