I did a killall hildon-desktop in xterm to update my transitions.ini changes and then everything just went crazy. Did a hard reset and now only some widgets and icons show up on my left corner. I can see the status bar and I tap it to bring up the menu but then it disappears. Cannot even connect to wifi because it just disappears after that. I've read that it could be a problem with the transitions.ini file. Tried to open xterm with ctrl+shift+x with no avail.
My N900 has a broken USB so I cannot reflash my phone. Anyone know any other way or had a similar problem know a solution to this issue?

All the info is in my posts above.
If you can't open X terminal or the power menu you will have to reflash.
Editing your transitions.ini with different methods was bound to cause problems.
It's all in the wiki's, please read them.

Press the power key again, tap restore transitions.
Wiki
The idea is to hit Ctrl Shift and X while booting before hildon hits the corrupt transition file. This has the best chance of it being executed. As soon as the desktop is on the screen.
This shortcut should work all the time, but the problem with transitions maybe stopping that.
Not doubting you but are you certain you are pressing only Ctrl Shift and X?
i.e. Top Left / Bottom Left / X
