First of all welcome to the forums. I am sure that with a little help from my friends we will be able to get you fixed up. The first thing that I notice is that you are no longer rooted.
The line: mecha xd ship s-on - shows that you have lost root in the process.
The first thing that I would suggest would be to find a way to look at the contents of your sd card. You can either put it in a different phone, or use a card reader to attach it to your computer. But either way you need to see if you have a file labeled PG05IMG.zip still in the root directory of your card. If so, delete that file, reinsert card into phone and see if the phone will boot properly.

BTW...if you don't have a card reader, you can pull the sd card out of the phone and then try to reboot and see if the phone will boot up.

You are S-ON, so something you flashed unrooted your phone. You can attempt to flash this RUU through HBOOT to get back to stock and then re-root the phone.

[Exclusive Download] Leaked 1.70.605.0 Update For The HTC Thunderbolt (No, It's Not Gingerbread)This should bring you back to the latest OTA but you won't have root access. So you'll need to follow the rooting instructions again.

Sele beat me to it. =)

Wow and I'm not usually that quick. To backup what sidsixseven has said, this file he listed is the next step I was going to recommend to get you back stock. So check the sd card for the file I posted, get rid of it if it is there, replace with the file he posted and you should be able to follow the instructions in his link to flash and get you back straight.

yes i tried with no sd card in and it still didnt boot also i noticed that if if select reboot hboot the security warning goes away but even if i try to do restore to factory settings on it from hboot it dosent work it goes to HTC screen withOUT the quite brilliant and then goes back to hboot

Thanks im downloading it but i have a slow internet connection and normally i would download using 4G and then just transfer to my computer but no TB no 4g i will try and get back to you tomorrow, like i said i will be gone most of the day
and thank you both for all your help and if possible if there are any hard things to do would you please explain them in laymens terms because i am only 14 and am new to the android terms and such also i read on the link that it will start to flash the update as soon as i turn on the phone is this true?

i am not sure how to flash it i boot up my phone and then it still says security warning at the top so i reboot the bootloader and it goes away then i go to fast boot and it says a few things and then at the bottom it says PG05IMG.zip it says battery power to low change battery and im not sure if the battery is charging while in hboot or not there is no LED saying it is charging so what should i do
