Droid Razr Won't Load

I currently own a Droid Razr Maxx.
I had installed eclipse (gingerbread) on my phone. It was running great.
Yesterday, my friend wanted to switch it to ICS since there really was no reason for me to continue running on GB when there is a newer version. So I let him take my phone and this is what he said has happened:
He unrooted my phone. Then he cleared my data and cache....
Then he downloaded Matts Utility 1.7 (I think) and he did the first option which is Full Fastboot to ICS 6.16.211 Stock. However, now when I turn my phone on... it just goes into the initial "Dual Core" screen. Then it just goes to black and stays there.
I tried to go into recovery and update.zip with a file i have saved on the SD card called VRZ_XT912_6.5.1-73_DHD-11_M1-2_1FF_01.zip.
It just says install /sd
and nothing really happens.
Im really not sure what happened at this point, pissed at my friend lol, and mad at myself for letting this happen when my phone was running fine. Any suggestions? Should I take it to Verizon? I'm not really a phone guru but I can follow along any suggestions.
Seriously Ill pay someone if this can get fixed . All suggestions help...

If you feel more comfortable using Matt's Utilities you can use Utility 1.8 or 1.82. I haven't used 1.82 so I don't know if it has the files included, it should though. I know 1.8 does.
Let me know what happens.

I don`t think 1.82 has webtop, Matt removed it to keep the file small(er). For what this person needs 1.7 here should do it.Now that zip file can be used to recover this. It should range ~700-800 MB if I remember correctly. If you download RSD Lite on your computer, load that into it and put the phone into AP Fastboot it will reflash the software so it will work again.

1) Press and hold the Power button and turn the phone off.
2) When the screen turns off, press and hold Volume Down and Volume Up and Power.
3) When the white AP Fastboot screen appears, use the volume button to move down to “RECOVERY.”
4) Press the Power button to select “RECOVERY.”
5) When the triangle and exclamation appears, hold the Volume Up and Power button at the same time.
6) Using the volume button, scroll down to “Wipe data factory reset” and select it.
7) Select “Reboot system now.”
You should be able to do this in the state your in now. Good luck.

Another thing you could try. I`ve had the same thing happen to my Maxx after using matts utility. Here`s what I had to do.
1) Press and hold the Power button and turn the phone off.
2) When the screen turns off, press and hold Volume Down and Volume Up and Power.
3) When the white AP Fastboot screen appears, use the volume button to move down to “RECOVERY.”
4) Press the Power button to select “RECOVERY.”
5) When the triangle and exclamation appears, hold the Volume Up and Power button at the same time.
6) Using the volume button, scroll down to “Wipe data factory reset” and select it.
7) Select “Reboot system now.”

Thanks mate. I've tried this though and unfortunately it always just goes back to the "Dual Core" screen then to just pure black screen. Let me try it one more time.

This is the official .211 ICS that Verizon would have pushed to your phone to upgrade you from Gingerbread.
Ah okay. Thanks for the link and the help! Will give it a try

He has the zip on the sdguys you can't use 1.81 or 1.82 from GB,and unless he has 211 zip on sd he can't use 1.7-so he has to use matt's 1.6 utility to get to ics
