ok something crashed on my modaco rom. super user wont work when it goes to it it just shows black screen. tried deleting cache on it and data. no fix. cant use tether or anything root.
I'd reapply the ROM or restore from backup.
i cant do that. everytime i do a nandroid backup it messes up cause of apps2sd.
I had a similar problem. I installed the Su app from the marketplace over it then i uninstalled it and it fixed the app. Worked for me.
ok i tried reloading rom and same thing. i cant find the app you are talking about. is it the super user whitelist. i cant install anything root now when it goes to su and you have to allow it all i get is black screen and it force closes

Yes its the Super whitelist app.
try reformatting the ext partition first. Wipe the system than do a system restore or nandroid restore. If you did a nandroid backup of the faulty system than I hope you have the stock nandroid backup as well.
ok tried the super whitelist and it downloads but never installs just sends me back to the sprint flash and restarts. i dont really want to restore back cause then i have to download all my apps again. im seriously thinking that apps2sd are more trouble than they are worth. maybe some one can do a walkthrough on how to back them up in the event of a crash like this.
Same here

I can confirm this behavior. I just reinstalled from a backup, installing whitelist from the Market gave me the unending HTC screen of death.
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
Superuser.apk can be found in any one of the available ROMs, fresh, gutted, MoDaCo, etc.

Oh Snap! TY!
I'm having the same issue. Just in case, I ruu'd back and started over.
Everything works fine up to installing the rom.
Debugging is on.
Tried wiping the ext partion from flash screen, says "error" run wipe_ext via consle"
I tried installing the superuser whitelist app from market, and it won't install, says "incompatible update".
Tried pushing the superuser.apk, it says "failed to copy, read only file system.
Any ideas, i'm lost. I can run my nandroid back to before I installed the 1.2c modaco and it works fine, as soon as I install the rom nothing works in root.
I used SU File Manager & Terminal 3.0.6 to cut/copy/paste Superuser.apk back into the app folder. I then ran it and it installed with no problems and works great for me.
I made sure that I used the built in feature to make the system and data folders RW before I cut/copy/pasted anything. Hope this helps.
ok so I got sick of the mp3 store google voice and such so I used titanium back up to delete them out of the system.
thats all fine and dandy except while zooming through the process I deleted a android system file and my phone just will not stop notifying me about force closing stuff, my internet is all screwy and such..
I'm wondering if I flash the origanal shipping rom onto it if it will cure everything and bring it back to stock then work from there flashing CMOD again..

Thanks

You have cyanogenmod now? Just reflash the latest rom.
Yeah, just flash whatever ROM you want to run and it will replace the files you deleted. You're in no bad shape here, don't worry.
I suggest, from now on that you not delete any files, but just to rename the extension to "*.apkbak" then if you ever need the file again you simply revert the name to "*.apk"
ya I tried reflashing other roms and the problem presists I'm flashing the stock rom just to start new again and see if that stops it. If not I'm SOL.
What did you delete? there (shouldn't be) anything that isn't replaced with a flash of cyanogenmod.
Grab a logcat (adb logcat > output.txt) of it force closing and put it in pastebin or something and give us the link. There can't be anything missing that you couldn't easily copy back in if you are on a rooted rom already...
ok I'm trying to do a nandroid restore right now see if that helps, and I'll get the log for it when I get done eating.
-Charlie
Ok so after only passing the official google PASSIMG ROM, so now I can flash other things.
I currently flashed back to CM and now after I restored all to stock it seems to be flying! Like when I flashed it for the first time!
-Charlie
I did the toast method lastnight 1 and 2 and now when I delete thing using root explorer, after I reboot stuff shows right back up.
I was just wondering anyone could think of one step that I forgot that would cause this.
Thanks

Could it be ROM dependent? When I was on the rooted stock rom, it would reappear after the reboot. Since I've been on Fresh Evo and deleted additional programs, it doesn't come back.

Could be, but I am running fresh as well.
I tried DC but just threw me into a bootloop, and i tried it a couple of times.
Hmm, not sure. What are you trying to delete (stock apks, etc)? Only other thing I can think of is that you don't have full root access. But if you did everything in the guides right, then you should be good. You might have to re-do it from scratch. Or at least from Part 2 if you can't find a solution.
If its showing back up you don't have nand unlocked. Try doing part two again and back sure you delete the old files and re download everything. Some people try and use the same zip from part one because it had thee same name but its a different file.

Ok so I am really ready to just give up when it comes to Android phones lol. I picked up a MyTouch 4g. I did not receive the update so I decided to do the force update here.

In settings>about> it still shows 2.2 not 2.2.1 but I have s off, I am using titanium backup and rom manager, with superuser. I deleted stock apps and everything. But for some reason this does not seem right. Shouldnt I be on 2.2.1.
Am I fully rooted or is something else going on. Can someone explain please. I only wanted to root to delete all the bloatware on the phone.

if you've already removed apps you will have to start over with the downgrading section most likely, but it seems to me like you missed a step somewhere
Ok, I dont know where I am in the process. Like I said, I have apps deleted, superuser, tianium, rom manager. All that. So you suggest starting the downgrade process. Can you send a link please. I am on 2.2 not 2.2.1 and I have s off.
Your best bet is to go back to the force 2.2.1 thread and force the upgrade.
You can check root access in android terminal emulator.
Open it up and type "su" without the quotes. If it come up with the # symbol you have root. If not you don't.

Yea, you have to restore all the stock apps from what I heard too.
Typed "su" in terminal. I got the pound sign. So im rooted. But to clarify. In order to force that 2.2.1 update I will need to install all apps again then use the guide to force the update.
There is a stock ota backup on here somewhere, use it to get 2.2.1 if you really are rooted.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

if you have clockwork recovery installed all you need to flash is the update.zip... BUT if you can't get those apps reinstalled it probably won't work... but that depends on which apps you removed and I don't know for sure which ones matter
What apps are removed? You should be able to adb push them back to your phone then just boot into clockwork and flash the update.zip
EDIT:
Dont give up on Android just yet, this phone is a bit harder to get updated and rooted than most..just takes a bit of patience is all...you'll get it.
couple questions
Ok, I can not use adbs so anything with adb I can not do but thanks. Also How do I get into clockwork recovery? I deleted asphalt 5 game, the demo videos, the tmobile app pack.
Why cant you use adb?
To get into clockwork, you can try using rom manager and selecting boot into recovery or you can power off your phone, pop out your battery for a sec to kill the quick boot then reboot it by holding down the volume down and pushing the power button for a few seconds, release the power while still holding the volume down.
reason for no adb
I use a school pc and thus have no administrator rights to run adb commands. I have rom manager installed but everytime I do the thing that says boot into recovery, it just takes me to a screen with an exclamation point.
Sounds like you dont have clockwork installed.
Go into your rom manager app and select install clockwork recovery
Please post all questions in Q&A section.
Sorry guys.I gave up. I just turned s back on and did a hard reset. Hope I dont get charged. Thanks for everything.
Hi,
i mistakenly uninstall htcsyncwidget from mytouch 4g. i thought i would be able to restore it through Titanium backup; no such option, unfortunately. Can someone please upload it for me so i can re-install it? I am running froyo 2.2.1.
Thanks in advance guys..
edit: Ok i was able to extract it in my pc from a nandroid backup i had; however, it says "application not installed" any reasons as of why??
Edit#2: actually i fixed it.. just placing the files back to /system/app and restarting the phone brought it back to life. btw i love how i answered everything my self. u can delete this post. thnx
