    Fantastic! Everything went smoothly and it appears I am rooted and running CM 4.2.3. I am going to install the hard spl and format my sd card so i can run apps2sd. I will find your posts on the recovery to make that easier as well.

    Now, I see there is a CM 4.2.3.1. To flash this, all I need to do is boot into recovery, wipe, and then flash this version?

    Ok guys, it appears I need help due to some stupidity on my part. Of course it was on the section that might brick my phone lol. I had the hard SPL installed and it said to check and make sure. So I did by booting into recovery and checking if the 3 androids on skateboards was on the bottom.

    I went to reboot by pressing Call, Menu and End at the same time, but I either did it late, or wrong or something as it started flashing the DREAIMG.nbh file again. I didn't want to yank the battery or anything so I let it finish and restarted the rooting process.

    Apparently that was bad. I got everything installed again, then when I went to reboot after installing the CM 4.2.3, it gives me the android screen and then just a black screen and it hangs there. Am I screwed, or can I recover from this? I can boot in recovery mode so I am hoping a fix can be suggested. All help is appreciated of course.

    Indeed I am! I feel very silly though. I tried what you suggested and no go. I realized I was in a hurry and had forgotten to wipe before installing 1.6. Did it correctly this time and all is well. Thanks again so much for your help and patience!
