Root Stuck in Boot Loop

Then don't worry...you're fine. Just re-flash BB v0.5 or install a different kernel.

To re-flash BB 0.5:
Put the stock BB v0.5 ROM on your sd card and then:

- Wipe Data
- Format your Boot and System partitions in the Partitions menu (just a good idea but probably not completely necessary to fix the current problem).
- Flash ROM as you usually would.

If you don't have the BB v0.5 ROM on your phone, go to:

Partitions Menu > Mount USB storage (and obviously have your phone connected to your computer).

Transfer the ROM from your computer to your phone and then exit that menu. Probably will need to reboot into recovery again so the file shows up when you search for it to install.
