Root [CDMA] Boot loop installing 4.4.4 update

[snappwrench]

Hello all, cannot get phone to stop boot loop after trying to install new 4.4.4 update through boost. I have unlocked my phone and installed CWM previous to this and it boots into CWM and it asks if i want to install untrusted zip, but no matter what i choose it just boot loops. I have no idea what i can do at this point other than let the battery run out. Please help

did you backup your previous rom?

 

[snappwrench]

no, not using a custom rom either. Doesn't really matter if i have to factory reset, i just don't know how in this case. It will boot for about 20-30 sec and i'm able to power it off but that's it.

I believe the update won't install if CWM is installed, you need to go all the way back to stock. At least it didn't for me.

Try installing one from this thread:

That would be great if i could get into CWM, but i am not even able to do that right now.

Managed to system restore it finally through CWM, so at this point will the update work or will i have to completely remove CWM if any trace of it remains?
