Press the power key, if CSSU Features is there tap it.
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

Cannot pull up the menu with power button. Only can lock the device by hitting it twice. Still cannot open xterm. I think I may just be royally screwed.

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.
