What does it mean when an exclamation mark is there during boot up?

It means you have unofficial/modified firmware on your device.
so is there any way to remove it? Im running inparis v4 with pershoots kernel
If you go back to stock then it will go away.

So I have been through a lot of the threads looking for the answers just to clarify before I attempt to do this again on my mt3g.
I have it rooted with Androot and it worked fine and I installed Rom Manager. Yesterday I did the backup rom command from rom mamanger and it backed up my rom to the sd card.
So today I went and selected download and picked cyanogen 6.0.0 and the google apps and then click on backup rom and wipe cache. Then the phone rebooted and it went to the black screen triangle with the exclamation point and nothing happened. I let it sit for like 15 minutes and nothing. So I pulled the battery and went back into recovery and got to the same screen and it didn't do anything. Now I read in another forum that at that point with the triangle I am supposed to hit the home and power button for it to continue. Is that accurate?
I tried to follow a tutorial for rom manager but it never mentioned anything about that screen with the triangle and yellow exclaimation point. Since I don't think it actually did anything after it rebooted I let the phone boot normally and old rom is still intact. So before I try this again I just want to clarify what I need to do after the point where it reboots and goes to that triangle screen. I really don't want to end of bricking my phone.
Thanks in Advance.

I tried rooting my phone and it made it through almost all the steps and then failed..Well it rebooted and had a big red exclamation mark and triangle on the screen. Well i download the stock ruu and tried flashing it and it almost finishes then says error 101..Now it wont even go into boot loader and had an htc logo and 4 triangle/exclamation marks on all four corners of the screen...Please tell me ill be able to fix my phone... Definitely wont be rooting again...thanks in advance for your help!
maybe try taking out battery and reboot
Push vol up + power and a menu should appear. You can reboot from there.
The screen with the four triangles is where you need to flash it from. Just make sure you are using the right version ruu

Which method did you try?
Phone was rooted with .596 (2.3) and working perfectly for weeks. Gave to my daughter who lets the battery run out completely yesterday.
Now:
Trying to go into recovery = android dude with triangle exclamation point
Trying to boot normally = motorola sign, droid sign, animation starts, phone vibrates once like normal, notification lights once like normal, animation slows down, screen goes black, phone completely unresponsive, have to pull battery to retry
Trying to plug it into computer = screen turns on showing "no service", is in airplane mode, can't use touchscreen to unlock, screen goes black, can't get it to come back on....Can access the SD card
Any ideas how to fix this?
Looks like you need to sbf

got into bootloader was 30.04 so I used the 2.3.34 system only .sbf file. everything said it worked ok, got to where RSDlite said to manually power up phone. Stuck at Red motorola Circle. Tried to go into recovery, get to the android and ! again. Try to hit search key so I can do a wipe as is suggested in these circumstances and nothing happens...just sits there...Multiple attempts at both still stock on Motorola or android/!
ideas now?? thanks for the help btw
EDIT: Got it, Did SBF with full version instead of the system only and that made recovery work, did the wipe/reset and all is working again
thanks all
Nice, was about to say a full sbf is what you need

Right I tried to flash the ruu to update 3.0 sense now it wont boot into droid and just displays a phone with a red triangle and exclamation mark. Is this fixable without sending it to htc?

Could you give a few more details? Which RUU did you flash, how did you flash it, what were you on before, were you S-OFF, etc? What happened right after flashing the RUU?
The red triangle and exclamation mark is what you'll see if you try to boot in to recovery when there is no custom recovery on the phone, e.g. if you have flashed a stock RUU. Have you pulled the battery and tried booting again? Can you boot in to bootloader by turning the phone on while holding vol down button?
I apologize in advance for my English. I have a problem with my Motorola Milestone 2. After installing CM7 something went wrong. When I start the phone, it shows up for a few seconds the red motorola logo and disappears (there is a black screen). I can not go into recovery. I can't charge battery. Can anyone help me?

If you see the red moto logo, you are on the new gb kernel.
To install cm7 Froyo Kernel based, you need to do a downgrade method. Read this:
