[Q] Stuck on HBoot - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hello
I have a Vodafone UK Magic
SAPPHIRE UNKOWN 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0007 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.19.261

It's not been rooted or had any custom ROM's etc.
It got a bit wet in the rain last weekend and now when I turn it on it's just stuck on the HBoot screen. I can't press 'back' for FastBoot or scroll down. No keys respond. I also can't boot into Fastboot with power + menu or any other combo.
I tried retrieving the rom.nbh from some official RUU's and putting them on the SD card. The phone picked them up and asked if I wanted to update etc. I did one update but didn't make any difference. Tried another rom.hbh and now when it picks it up some text flies by and nothing else happens & I'm stuck again.
Any ideas?

*HELP* Bricked / Not Bricket no clue.

Hi,
Firstly i would like to thank everyone for any help they can provide.
First some information -
I originally had an:

Using this post here: [32A][HOW-TO] Upgrade to 6.35.07.29 Radio and 1.76.2007 SPL (Downgrade/Revert too!)
I managed to upgrade my SPL and Radio to:

I would like to point out I was originally trying to do update to this: [ROM][32A] CursorSense32A-1.0 FINAL! Fast, stable 1.5 Sense UI ROM! [01-12-10]
After everything said and done as soon as the phone started it went to an endless loop, switching off and switching on. I tried getting into recovery (Home + Switch on) but it would stay there for a second and then reboot again. Tried getting into Fastboot (Back + Switch on) which initially i was glad to see the white screen popup but now adb devices nor fast boot devices detect the phone i get no devices listed.
I have tried re-installing the usb drivers, rebooting the pc and the phone a billion times just about everything but nothing works. I can't do anything from recovery because it stays there for a few seconds and reboots again and without fastboot i can't manage to flash it into recovery either nor can i push any files to the phone. (Even tried connecting the phone to my mac and see if i could get some sort of access to the phone but i get nothing).
I would appreciate any help pertaining to this problem.
*UPDATE*: I don't know how but i can finally see the device under fastboot devices. I am guessing the best way to go is flash another SPL even though i have the one that is to be used by the CursorSense, any suggestions? Should i try re-flashing the SPL?
**UPDATE (2)*: Tried [32A][HOW-TO] Upgrade to 6.35.07.29 Radio and 1.76.2007 SPL (Downgrade/Revert too!)
but it fails with (remote: signature verify fail)
*sigh* any suggestions....

to flash my phone, and it got too system at 81% then froze no matter how long I left my phone plugged in, it was still frozen at 81%

Can anyone help me? any ideas?

Mytouch 3g stuck on Hboot

I had this problem before and the device was inactive for 4 months. Then it suddenly started working again. This problem has resurfaced and I cannot find a solution.
As soon as I turn the device on it goes straight to HBOOT with the following information:

HBOOT
<Back> Fastboot Mode
it runs through what appears to be a booting process but then nothing. no buttons do any thing and it is unresponsive. Can anyone help me remedy this?
maybe a button is stuck down or is making contact (like your vol down?) and when you boot up it keeps thinking you want to go into hboot (cause of a false msg coming from the hardware) I dunno just my random blurb of the day.
i've got the same problem with a g1 right now i can boot into the recovery img with home+power i tired taking out the camera button and trying that but still boots into bootloader

[Q] is my phone bricked?

Alright, so i got this phone from a friend to try to fix, as i've done some work with android phones before, mostly just following directions from various forums on this website.

[Q] Semi-Bricked Phone Help?

I looked through all the forums for bricked phones and its kinda not helping much
I have a Mytouch 3G 1.2 W/3.5 mm jack. Basically what happened was i messed up my instructions and tried downloading a european version of Radio and SPL. from there i installed Recovery-Ra-v1.6.2.img from the Fastboot area. everything seemed fine till i rebooted and couldnt get into recovery. i cannot get into recovery now and its all messed up. Stays on Splash screen and thats it. I tried to HBoot into SAPPIMG but it stops at Radio_v2 when it is updating and at 95 percent of the bar is completed. Cant do anything to Fastboot USB and download any Recoveries, radios or SPLs.
