MyTouch Root - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hello everyone,
I just got done rooting my girlfriends original MyTouch using the Goldcard method. Right now it's fully rooted and running Cyanogen 5.0.8 Test 4 and outside of not reading ringtones off the memory card, it's working great. My only question though is why does it still show the Vodafone logo when you reboot it? I rooted mine when the one touch method first came out and I get the MyTouch logo when you restart. I think I followed the guide to a 'T' but maybe I missed something. Anyone have any input?
Also, would anyone have any reason why my ringtones aren't being noticed of the SD card? After a couple of restarts, a fix permission and some cache wipes it will show the alarms on the card but not the ringtones (and yes they are in the right folder). It is a cheap, nasty 1 GB card until her 8 GB shows up, so maybe that's the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

IN NEED OF HELP! Phone Stuck at HTC Logo!

Hi Guys,
I am really desperate for help. I have the VZW trophy and its currently stuck at the HTC logo the phone boots upto when it starts with green text on a white background. I was mid process of syncing my phone to Zune and then it just rebooted and is stuck there.
The phone had been officially upgraded to mango R2 a while back and I do have a copy of the backup. Additionally I upgraded the phones SD card a while back. I have tried factory resetting the phone by holding both volume buttons on boot and choosing option number 2.
Nothing I am trying is working! Anyone have any ideas of what could be going on?
Any ideas would be great, I was thinking possibly the SD Card went bad but I wasn't sure! Has anyone seen this behavior before?
Any help or ideas would be great!

You can go into your Bootloader? If it's correct you have to flash a new ROM!
Because your currently ROM is FAILED
I actually got this fixed in case anyone is interested. the 32 gig Sandisk SD card I had installed went bad. I purchased another any everything was working again.

Android taking longer and longer to boot, up to 3 mins now - Help

Hi
Ive got a (alleged) superpad 10 (Its an rk3188, 1Gb Ram, 16Gb drive, rooted with 4.2.2. No REAL Idea what Chinese brand or model it is). Its rooted and running cwm. When I first got it it took just over a minute to boot up, but, over time its taking longer and longer. Its now up to 3 mins.
I have installed a launcher (Nova) and a few other apps but nothing different to what ive installed on other tabs and they have never suffered from this. Ive tried disabling all the user apps from running on boot and some system ones but still the same. Tried removing the sd card, no change. I am running app2sd but no apps that run on boot or use widgets have been moved and all run on internal memory. I have init.d support but not running any scripts.
Im stumped now. I have no more ideas of what to do. Can anyone think of anything else that might cause the boot process to slow down? Its definatly software related as if I flash the rom it all goes back to normal. I doubt its specific to my hardware but maybe my rom? Im using the stock rom that came with it but as the guys it came from were D***s, I cant even find the real model! Its very new as the kernel was built in December 2013 and I havent seen any of these on eBay
Any help would be much appreciated as its driving me mad now.
Cheers
Chris
How about looking at logcat, dmesg, UART console, top or ddms for starters?

[HELP] HARDBrick - yep, I'm the first one !

Hey guys
Just got a S5 (previously owned a S2 and S4 Active, which I have rooted and put custom ROMs so many times. Hence I'm familiar with Odin, Recovery, etc etc).
About a week ago, I installed Shohat v5 ROM, everything went fine. I was quite happy with it.
I installed back my app from my S4 Active through a big update.zip (backed up with Titanium paid version) thanks to custom recovery.
And just now, when my battery was like 5% left, I decided to make a hard reboot (as Xprivacy warned me that I needed to restart to have my changes into effect).
I charged my phone and THEN I push the reboot button (not the hot boot).
While charging, the screen went normally black, but stayed black with the blue LED notification ON (not sure if that info is important).
Then, black screen stays forever:
- no logo
- no download mode
- no recovery
- When phone is connected through USB to my laptop, I hear the usual "tadaam" sound from Windows, but no "USB notification".
It seems a JIG would be the solution, but no idea if that would work for a S5 (I guess Samsung has now worked to avoid that solution)
Well, if anyone can help, that would be cool
Obvious I know but you have pulled the battery for a while and tried again right?

Hello
Indeed, I just removed the battery for a few hours a tried, no success.
But is it normal that a hardbrick can occur 1 week after installing a custom ROM?
Right now I can't bring it to Samsung store for repair...
(Adding a new post as editing is not working properly)
Isn't there a way to use ADB with commands through Windows (as there is the "tadaam" sound when I connect it through USB)?
A friend of mine bricked his Nexus tablet and went through such solution to remove the brick ...
OK ............
Here's the magic
After removing on and off the battery many times, trying to boot in recovery or download (trying about 15 times)
Now I managed to boot in recovery (I was like "huh?" and "wooohoooooo")
Did Wipe cache
Did Wipe Dalvick
No Factory reset
Fixed root (seems like I lost it, no idea why)
Let's see if I can reboot it
I think maybe the issue came from the huge update.zip created from my S4 Active (i9295) with Titanium backup (I was in Android version 4.2.2).
Maybe the reinstalled apps, messed up something as the ROM was in version 4.4.2...

OK ... bad news again
I performed a hard reboot to check that everything was stable, and phone rebooted fine.
then I turned off and removed to battery to put back the SD card and the SIM card, and now the phone is not being turned on again.
And now the phone is not able to be turned ON again...
What's going on, any idea?
*** EDIT ***
I managed to reboot in custom recovery totally randomly after playing with the battery (removing, putting it back, trying to boot)
I made a full factory reset and reinstalled the custom ROM Shohat.
After rebooting, it went directly to ODIN as it was displaying error messages "ddi: MMC_read failed"
I guess the internal SD card is dead.
Questions:
1/ Is warranty OK if
- KNOX counter is at 0 (no idea why it is at zero)
- Current Binary is set to OFFICAL
- BUT SYSTEM STATUS is set to "CUSTOM"
2/ Can a custom ROM do this or is it a hardware failure?
Did you try with another sd card did you have apps installed on this sd card for me this sounds like a dead sdcard issue with some apps on it. I had the same issue with my X8 when a lot of apps ware running from the sd card btw sd cards are totally unreliably for storing important data as they usually die after some writing on them.
Change the SD Card and I think your phone will come back to normal.
SD Card Reader

I don't know if this helps but I had an GS-900H (S5 octacore version) and struggled with it for a week trying to debug this problem, ordered new memory cards, installed different ROMs, etc. only to find out that the card reader was bad.
In my case it would corrupt the card every time so that my PC would need to 'repair' it before I could begin using it in the PC.
Maybe the card reader is a common point of failure?
EDIT: I also had issues with different cards working and not working based on the speed of the SD card (different S5). I know for a fact that it will switch you over to main memory when taking pictures that require advanced features -- I got a popup telling me that my memory card wasn't fast enough.

Hello guys
Thanks for your input.
Unfortunately I do not have an external SD card, the issue is with the Internal memory
So i can not request new ones or try to replace it, or work on the card reader...
Amazing that you are about to lose your phone forever and you don't even consider installing the original Samsung firmware.
What da f*** are you doing?
100%. Numb nut doesn't deserve the great phone It's like he got OCD.

Hello
Well, not sure that ODIN will work as the internal MMC is not recognized, so where would that be installed?
Furthermore, I'm waiting for the feedback from Samsung (as knox counter is at 0, Binary is set to OFFICIAL and only status is set to Custom).
I did not want to change these counters with manipulating ODIN.
If Samsung gives it back to me with a new one, then wooohoooo
If Samsung says "f*** off, you manipulated it, warranty is off", then I'll use ODIN with STOCK ROM from Samfirmware + PIT file (they are ready for use on my computer)
If you can't get to download mode how do you propose to use Odin to flash stock ??
