Well, I screwed up (yes, I said it, it's my fault) and tried to restore my phone with a backup created through SS. That left me stuck at the M screen, as the backup that was made didn't seem to be a file like the ones I'm used to having on CWM, which I discovered when it was too late.

Anyway, I downloaded the Fastboot files that Hillmom posted up on another forum and I tried to run it. I used the file for JB and it keeps failing at the "flash system img" part. What do I need to do now? Do I download and try to run the fastboot for ICS or what? I'm stuck here.

Oh, phone model does not display under the "model" column in RSD, it only says "Fastboot."

edit: Now, when I boot the phone, it goes straight into Fastboot with it saying "Reason for Fastboot, flash fail." I'm going to try to run the ICS Fastboot, seeing as this phone was originally purchased with ICS. If that doesn't work, it looks like a trip to Verizon is in order, with me playing stupid about the entire situation.

As a disclaimer, phone was having no issues with the stock ROM or the the new CM10 ROM by Marx. I was simply having an issue with Play Store FC'ing, and I couldn't figure it out for the life of me. I decided to restore a previously saved ROM to solve this issue.

I didn't think there were fastboot files for jellybean yet. And fastbooting to ICS from JB won't work. Try this:

In the first post there's an unbrick utility.

Well it actually seems to be working now. I had to update to RSD Lite 6.1.4. Yes, there is JB Fastboot option here:

Phone is back up and running, and stock, but that's better than brick.

edit: already re-rooted and SafeStrapped. Things are looking up.

Oooohhhh. My apologies. Didn't realize you had an M. Thought you just had an OG RAZR. My bad.

No problem at all. Now you know how to save a M.
