Keep trying to flash it. It'll hold after the seventh or eighth time.

Turns out it wasn't the apk I thought it was. I've since tried about 8-10 apk's and have come up short. Any idea which apk it is that has the wallpapers in it?

It said that when I went there. I click anyway and it went to the download screen. Then click on the RAR to start download.
I was running Venom ROM ICS and wanted to try out the JB version so I download it and it boots up and naturally, I start to play around. I installed titanium backup again to get my things back and it tells me I have no root. I say whaaaaa!? I then download a rootchecker app from the store and it confirms I have no root. How the world did that happen?
I panicked and booted into recovery and restored the backup I made before flashing the ROM. Now I can get back into fastboot and recovery but when I try to boot up it is a black screen. Should I RUU and start all over or am I salvageable?
