I went to do a hard cache wipe by pressing the power volume down and did the wipe. after the cache wipe...
I accidentally went into another screen. I now have the green android with the red triangle with am exclamation point inside it. Underneath that It reads...
"Now send the package you want to apply to the device with adb sideload <filename>"...
Is their any way I can get back to normal? Can Someone save me

Lets make this easy:
-Tried to install CyanogenMod on my rooted Desire using the ROM Mananger.
-Installed it but it got into a loop at the CyanogenMod boot logo
-Searched around and found out that you had to go into recovery and try to reflash there
-Every time I go into ClockworkMod Recovery, there's a message "E:Error in CACHE:recovery/log (No space left on device)"
-Tried to wipe data/factory reset
-Got a black screen
(It seems that all the options give me a black screen and the only way I could solve that is to remove the battery)
I was told to reflash the recovery, but how would I go about doing that?
Pleas don't tell me you also try to confirm actions in recovery with the power button. Use the trackpad/optical joystick instead, the reason the screen turns black is because you actually turn it off(simple press of the power button should fix it and not pulling the battery). Also make sure in recovery you wipe data/factory-reset, cache and dalvik cache(under advanced)

Oh Thank you soooo much. Thought I had to spend hours on this, but your comment saved the day!
Hello folks, hopefully somebody can help me out with this issue or I may just have to bite the bullet and see what the repair costs are going to be from Acer. I have an Iconia A100 that is unlocked and rooted. I never did get around to loading a custom ROM (was waiting for the JB ROMs to get a little bit more stable) and was just running the stock ICS. It also seems that I didn't successfully load a recovery image so I now seem to be totally out of luck. I went to use my tablet while it was still on but the screen refused to turn on after pressing the home button or pressing the power button. So I decided to reset it and figured that would fix it. Now it's stuck booting to the screen with the distorted text at the top and the multiple acer logos at the bottom. I've tried a factory reset to clear the cache and that didn't help although it did say deleting user data and cache. I tried booting into recovery but found that the CWM that I thought I had installed wasn't installed and all I get is a fallen down android icon with a red exclamation over it. If I power up holding down the volume up key and then flicking the screen rotation switch I get it to display that it's in USB fastboot mode but if I type in adb devices it doesn't get listed as an attached device when hooked into my PC. One other note if I leave it at the distorted text and plug it into my PC via USB Windows 7 detects it as a MPT USB Device which it's not able to locate a driver for.
Ok, some additional information:
I was trying to get something out of the screen where I have the fallen down android with the red exclamation point over it and it seems that the default recovery is still installed in Android system recovery (3e). I can't seem to select any menu options on the screen but it does give some additional info. It looks like the eMMC may be partially or completely borked, I'm not sure which. Here's what's on the screen:
Android system recover (3e)
Android system recovery utility
reboot system now
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
Then in yellow text:
E: Can't open /dev/block/mmcblk0p5
(No such file or directory)
E: failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)
This goes on for a bit of being unable to open various directories. Is there anyway at this point to re-lock the bootloader and erase traces of doing so? I find it hard to believe that unlocking the bootloader would cause what seems to be a hardware fault but I could be wrong.

Its a typical emmc brick, there's threads all over about this. All you can do is send it to acer for repair, sorry to say.
Plug it in and let try to boot on its own for an hour or so, what you want is failsafe, blue power led on but screen off. Then send it to Acer.

OK, so I installed the toolkit on my laptop, and so far have managed to unlock and root my phone.
Here is the problem.
When I boot to recovery, My phone comes up green, then the red triangle. Volume up and power gives me the Android system recovery (3) and a message on the bottom
E:Cant open /cache/recovery/command. all I can do is reboot the phone.
Ideally what I want is to be able to backup the phone, install a new kernel/rom and be able to restore it if I mess up.
Tried to search for help on the forum, but it didnt do me any good. Is there a newbie guide how to do this?
Thanks in advance
Larry

you have to flash custom recovery like CWM or TWRP
I have downloaded the CW ROM manager and installed rom manager v5.5.3.2 current recovery 5.x.x.x latest recovery 5.8.4.5. I boot into clockwork recovery mode. get the green circle with the arrow followed by the phone with the red triangle. Press volume up + power and get menu for android system recovery. With the menu
reboot
apply update from external
wipe data
Wipe cache
apply update from cache
bottom has a message E: cant open /cache/recovery/command
So i dont think I have accomplished anything except downloaded a useless app

Can you get into download mode so you can odin back your stock firmware?
or perhaps use Kies to recovery?
Or you just may need to hold the power button down to turn off and reset.....
Found solution. Mods can delete thread. I posted in wrong forum.
HowTo flash via adb or fastboot?
Hello,
I updatet my SlimKat Rom from an weekly to "Slim-honami-4.4.4.build.9.0-OFFICIAL-8317".
After that the screen stays black. But the phone works, I get message notification, the Touchscreen vibrates, the alarm works...
Now I won't loose my data and settings. Can I flash the image or the previous again ( it stay on the sd card) via adb or fastboot without touching the phone?
I can enter TWRP, the lights told me (from red to purple and yellow) and it still works. My phone vibrates when I touch (the huge buttons) but I can't see anything.
I've to wipe Dalvik and cache. NOT A FULL WIPE. And install the "Slim-Honami***.zip".
Or maybe can I repair the graphic driver or device?
Thanks you all

Either you flashed the wrong zip, or you're in the wrong forum (since this is for "amami")
