I just reset mytouch 4g phone and during restart the recovery screen just come out but I can't move down or up anything on the screen it just stuck..
I just update cm to version 3 of something
please I really need help on this my phone is already S-off
when I plug the phone with USB it response something by HBOOT has changed to HBOOT USB PLUG
I use Stock Rom just update Kernal only
Need more specifics. "3 of something" is too vague.
If you flashed clockwork mod recovery 3 (the text is orange) while using a stock ROM you will have issues. Clockwork 3 is for gingerbread based ROMs only.
If that is so, download CyanogenMOD 7 RC1 and try to flash it. Rebooting may help get recovery working right again. If not, and you are unable to re-flash a ROM, you will need to use fastboot to re-flash a good recovery image.

In clockwork you use the trackball to navigate. Volume buttons won't work.

no response on trackball too. it just stuck on this screen and can't move anywhere....any solution
Your attached image is of the Bootloader, not CWM Recovery.
The Bootloader is controlled by volume up / volume down to move between selections, and the power button is used to select.

when I turn the phone on everytime it just show this bootloader and no response on all volume up/down and power button...only way to turn off is to unplug battery ....
You might see if the Bootloader can communicate with fastboot on your PC. If so, you will have options for un-bricking from your PC.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928370 for info on installing adb and fastboot to your PC, and using them.
Fastboot is designed to communicate with the bootloader. As far as I know, however, adb requires a functioning Android or Recovery system.

One more question, after following your advice, I found that I now can restart my phone again but when I shut down the phone and turn it on again it still stuck on bootloader screen all the times...any suggestion would be appreciate...
You can "restart my phone again" -- is it running Android at that point? If so, you can restore your phone to stock, and do a full factory reset, by putting the P15IMG.zip file on the root of your SD card and rebooting. The bootloader (if it is functional) should find it and begin the restore procedure.
Dowload, rename this, and stick it on your SD card, and reboot. If after a successful return to factory defaults, your phone still isn't working, the problem is likely not software.

My MT4G is perm rooted running cyanogenmod 7.0.3 stable, and everytime i press the power button it boots into hboot (fastboot), and I cannot get out hboot because my volume buttons are not working so i cannot go up and down. I cant even get back to my rom. Is there any way that I can fix this? Thanks
try to boot in in recovery and run a backup (hopefully you made one) or just wipe the phone and reinstall the rom

Thanks for the help but I cant even boot it into recovery because none of the buttons work while on hboot. Is there any way to boot it into recovery without going through hboot or the rom?

I don't think you have an option here. The phone thinks the Volume Down button is being pressed, so that's why it's going into hboot. No matter what you do, it will boot into hboot until you get the volume buttons working.

Don't use the power button to select. Use the trackpad

Well first off, you should ALWAYS make nandroid (ROM manager) backups before flashing any ROM, addon, patch, etc.
That aside, you have a few things to do here. If you didn't make a nandroid backup you should download a ROM.zip file from the Dev section (your choice), and put it on your SDcard. Enter the boot loader (from off) by holding vol. down+power, then selecting 'recovery'. Once in recovery, wipe data/factory reset, and then go to 'install zip from SDcard' and select the ROM.zip. Then flash any associated .zip's or anything that the ROM maker suggest. Reboot, and you're good to go in a working ROM. You can now go from there.
Remember, when in recovery you need to use the TRACKPAD and BACK BUTTON to navigate the CWM recovery screen. Using the power button / camera button / menu button will just show/hide the menu or turn the screen off. You can scroll and select with the trackpad, and go back with the 'back' button. Only use these 2. Nothing is wrong with your phone, you're just using the wrong damn buttons.
Your phone is so far from bricked its not even funny. Just follow some basic knowledge on how the recovery and ROM manager works and you'll be back to 100%.
thanks alot guys. i was really high so i started getting paranoid about my phone lol BUT THANK YOU SO MUCH
Power Button just shows the wallpaper, trackpad is where you select for our phone

the chinese rom and checksum error are supposed to happen.
the chines rom is an old unstable version but is provided so we can root it to install cwm and flash a working rom.
after the checksum error you needed to power off and then using the buttons enter recovery mode and go to 'Fix checksum error' in advanced menu - after that reboot.
you should do the following:
a)go back and read the entire post on what to do because you missed the last part
or
b)try the backdoor method
---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 AM ----------
just read your entire post again...there's alot going on there isnt there?
have you tried flashing the update.zip again with 3.0.1 on it...get back to the chinese rom, from there install iconia root and root it. Then install cwm and you should be all good - if that doesnt work then use timmyDeans backdoor method it does it for you, all you need to do is install acer recovery installer to install cwm, backup the original stock recovery when the app asks you, you will need it to OTA Update successfully...
Doesn't flashing stock rom remove cwm?

V3 which I pointed you to is STOCK 3.2.1 with root. Once you get there you will be stable. If you want CWM then you will have to install it. It is NOT in the flash because the flash is stock ONLY with root. But since you have root, you can install CWM.
The serial number does NOT need to be saved in any file. Just follow the instructions.

Ok, now just download the stock image for your country and put it on your external sdcard. Use the power and volume + key which will launch stock recovery (which you now have flashed) and it will flash your tablet with the one located on your sdcard. This will have you back stock.

You have a "volume" switch on top of your tab (long silver switch on left side)
You control volume from this. Vol+ make sound go up (the right side of it)
Press it on the left side, and volume goes quiet (vol-)
So, as he said, with the tablet OFF, hold the VOL+ side of the button, then select PWR (power)
You have 2 recovery modes.
1. CWM Recovery (vol- & Pwr) (after you have root and cwm installed)
2. Stock Acer recovery (vol+ & Pwr)
Step number 2 with the stock acer recovery, should install the stock rom you copied to your sd like TimmyDean said earlier.

Please rewrite what you are trying to do. I have no idea what you are talking about?
Are you asking about stock recovery and flashing form a SD Card? If so, copy update.zip to your SD card and then run recovery. If you have CWM, then use it to select the update from the SD Card.
It's not clearly as to exactly what you have loaded and what you are trying to do?
LASTLY: You cannot take a backup from CWM and have the stock recovery install it. Stock recovery will only install update.zip which must be signed by ACER.

Hello sir
in upper post u tell me i must go to recover mode by pressing power & vol+
but only i can go to stock recovery with pressing power & vol-(not vol+)
is there any other method for going to recovery mode by (vol+) ?
because Mr Moscow Desire said in his upper post (post no 14 of this thread)
if yes how ?
if not ..... just thank u
there is only one recovery on your device..
you should slowly repost your exact trouble.. then do EXACTLY as someone tell you to fix it..
There is only one recovery on your device . If YOU FLASH CWM RECOVERY .. it overrides the acer recovery.
so if you dont have cwm revovery .
nevermind repost your system rom you are using .. rather or not you know what recovery you have .. Then someone can help you...

I was running stock 4.2.1 with franco kernel.

Everything seems ok, but when I try and go into recovery from the bootloader I just get a fallen android with a red triangle.
Theres no text or anything.
I have tried reflashing the recovery image but it makes no difference.
I downloaded the stock rom from here:
http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-4/
Can anyone help?
If it's of any help, my stock rom never had google wallet, the one I downloaded above does.
Thanks
It's because you don't have a custom recovery (like clockworkmod) installed anymore.
It still works as a recovery, but you have to hold powerbutton + click volume up when in there to make the options appear.
Thank you very much! I thought I had borked the recovery.

That IS the stock recovery. To access the menu, hold power and press volume up (on that screen).
