part? 777 file

Ok idk exactly what it is called but I know it has 777 in it. The file that is created on your SD card when you root using GFree. I saw someone had it posted on here somewhere a while ago but now I can no longer find it. Anyone have a link to that file? Please and Thank you! I think it may be my last chance at saving my myTouch with that stupid Cache error! The other way I fixed it last time isnt working this time

part7backup-000000000.bin is created in root of your /mnt/sdcard/~ when you ran the gfree. If you lost it then sorry I don't think anyone ease's would work as I am not 100% sure if that is device specific but it may be leading to that.
Far as the cache error goes I hope it works out for ya as thats the closest soft-brick we have. But do you have adb installed? If so push and flash the CMWR2.5.1.2 manually. I didn't isolate the issue if it's gfree related as we still need data to verify those who are effected are only gfree users or folks who just simply did root.sh without gfree.

Yeah I know I had this stupid cache crap before and it was a b**ch to fix here is the link to my thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043459
And I have ADB and EBL (Hboot 85.2007) and last time pushing the old CWM worked but this time no dice I get Write FAILED everytime. So I hear that the PMG15.IMG can possibly fix this issue as well but I need that part7 file and I dont have mine anymore thanks to CM7 killing my SD card a while back anyhow I have seen it posted for DL here before and I think it worked for the guy who used it, I mean its worth a shot. It's not like I can do ANYMORE damage to the phone! lol

BTW it was me who posted the CMWR2.5.1.2 flash leak on another forum as I was here on XDA manually hacking the SLC-EUDA emmc block trying to replicate the issue the first person in MT4G to have in here. But if all you get now is fail partition update (fail-pu) then there is nothing else you can do. I still need more data to isolate if this is just gfree user based and not those who has s-off with eng boot without gfree. I try to do more test today but I can't roll the gfree maybe I am lucky? but ill post my finding if I ever able to get it and replicate the conditions. Only known meth to fix this is replacing the motherboard for now.

So you're saying PMC15.IMG wont fix this either? I don't understand why last time I was able to ADB push CWM 2.5.1.2 via Fastboot and then go into Recovery, Format cache and it was fine phone booted. I reflashed CWM 3.1.2.4 and went about my business...now it happens again and I can not flash CWM via recovery this time and thus I'm boned?? FML I JUST got this phone...my last ones screen peeled away, it was a referb from insurance so it was replaced with this one.
I work for T-Mobile so I really don't wanna bork my phone enough to hide root then send it in for a warrenty replacement cuz I don't think its right to screw my own company but damn I don't want to be out a phone, my back up phone's menu button doesn't work so it's really freaking annoying , guess I will deal till the Sensation 4g!

i dont rememeber which unroot thread but one of them has it, and supposedly it works with any mytouch 4g. not just the one it was created on

Well once you have fail-pu on hboot when you try to revert back to PD15IMG (rom/radio) both update will fail as you can't write to the partition block. Now far as I know this is only seen in CMWR3.0.0.0+ which at the time I flashed it manually though terminal. At this point there is way to many variables to consider mostly we need community input as those who is effected did use gfree as it could mean why the emmc simply gets -ro access now I am aware its using slc-euda so you can't low level format it this is the reason they replace the motherboard. We are not just talking about single partition here as it seems the recovery partition is first thing to be effected. I need to do some more work and atm I only have 1 phone and I don't feel like hacking it and end up with dead as I don't have any backup phones as I gave it away. Let me see if I can get another MT4G cheaper from ebay/cl and I can test on it.

Thats the gfree revert meth which is the only place you use part7backup and then if you want to roll back to stock eng bootloader you do the unroot.sh which flash the eng.nb0 and turns S-OFF.

Alright so let me get this all played out in my terms so I can see if I understand it.
1. Do I actually need that part file? I rooted with gfree so I figure yes
2. Will PMG15.IMG work at all or no?
3. Should I just say F it all and try anyhow? If so anyone wanna throw me a link to the part file?
4. I STILL don't get why this happened the first time! And why the way I fixed it the 1st time isn't doing $hit the 2nd time...
UGH! Damn it why couldn't this happen the end of May closer to when the Sensation 4G is suppose to launch... :'( damn you CWM ghost...

[Q] CWM Recovery Errors

I understand that there are similar threads out there but I still can't seem to figure it out. I apologize ahead of time for any wrong terminology, I'm pretty new to all of this. To give a background on what happend, I started my day off by rooting my phone with the following link (I had tried a different method with visionary plus and terminal but it wouldn't work)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858996
this method worked just fine and gave me s=off, currently what I have is as followed:
Glacier PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-0.85.2007 (pd1510000)
MICROP-0429
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot
After gaining my root I was excited to try and flash a new rom. I installed the clockwork rom manager from the market, flashed the recovery then backed up my current in case of future problems.
Next step for me was to flash a new rom. for this I followed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1070444
everything seemed to be going fine, phone restarted and I sat waiting (since I read the first boot could take 10min or so) after at least an hour I began to worry. Nothing happened, just stayed on the mytouch 4g startup screen and never changed.
I rebooted into recovery to try again, I can get into my hboot and into clockwork Mod Recovery v3.0.2.4 just fine. but there are a whole bunch of errors I cant fix. When clockwork starts I get the errors
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
If I try to format anything (cache, system...) it will say
Formatting /cache... (or system depending on what I am trying)
Error formatting /cache! (or system)
If I try to restore to a previous time it will start to do the restore, it will first do the boot which goes fine, but when it tries to format the system during the restore it fails just like if trying to format it individually.
At this point I would just like to get my phone working, any help would be much appreciated. (please try and use details so I can follow... still trying to learn alot)

I hate to be the bring of bad news, and remember don't kill the messenger, but it sounds as if your phone is truly bricked. There have been several threads on this already. As i know you are aware of. And very few, if any, have recovered.
There is a thread Posted here that boils down to the fact if the VISIONary.apk & root.sh method do not work then you have a bad eMMC.
Since it appears your phone does have a bad eMMC, hope you have insurance on it.

neidlinger- i happen to have bought the insurance for 6 bucks a month or whatever it was - they said it extends the mfr warranty another year and then it gives you drop-in-toilet etc insurance with around a 120$ deduc.
I'm with t-mobile and got the phone thru the mail. If I take this back to a local TMO store for warranty claim, there's no difference is there? (i.e. you dont have to follow the mail route just because that's how you got it originally)
also- would these cache mount or failed -pu errors, essentially beyond repair - are we getting these to be recognized as hardware failure (i.e. no deductabel and counted as a mfr defect) or are these coming up as TMO insisting on counting them as some user fault, requiring the deductable to be paid??

9/10 times if you buy a phone through the mail you will have to exchange it through the mail they will not allow you to walk into a store and do the exchange. I ran into that with my blackberry 9700.

nope there is not way around it. once the eMMC fails it's down for the count.

Is there any way to tell if the eMMC is bad. the visionary install went fine, just using the terminal to do the sh root.sh command wouldnt work, it would just keep saying failed (function not implemented) which is why I switched to visionary and adb gfree method... which worked like a charm, not a single hickup with it. the problems didnt start coming until after the rom instillation didnt work

i see you didn't read the thread i posted.
The link i posted is to a thread here @ XDA, called "Post your eMMC serial number". It has alot of information regarding this very subject, including how to tell if your eMMC is indeed a faulty one [ by serial number ].
it really doesn't matter when the problem happens. it just matters that it happened.
./gfree is basically forcing the rooting process to happen while the root.sh is asking for it to happen. If the root.sh process doesn't allow you to proceed, then you may have a faulty eMMC. you forced the phone to root and opened up a bee hive in the process.

yeah sorry, I posted and then was just reading that forum as you replied... sorry about that.

Hiddentalnt, please post your eMMC serial. We need people who have recovery errors to post what serial they have so we can actually pinpoint the problem being the chip. Thanks. The instructions are posted in the thread neidlinger posted above. Thanks

Well you need to flash the 2.5.x.x recovery image for the mytouch4g from the hBoot, then reboot then navigate to the recovery and pray that it works. If it loads you might be able to load a new ROM but i only know of one case where that worked.

I would be that ONE case where this option did work. And the difference I have seen between the first time when flashing CWM worked and the second time (when it DIDN'T work) is the COMMAND error. If your CWM says anything about COMMAND error then flashing the old CWM isn't gonna work.
Here is a link to a post I made with a download for the old CWM

I'm not sure I fully understand your directions in the other thread. So when i download the zip, i get inside it and go all the way to recoveries to get out one of the disc image files. which one do I want, there is a 2.5.1.3 and 2.5.1.4 and a 3.0.0.5 but I'm assuming thats not it... but once I get one of those I rename it recovery.img then i use abd to push it... what is the command to push it? and i have to be in hboot then fastboot to push it?

[Q] Have I possibly bricked my myTouch 4G?

Hi everyone,
I am in a big problem it seems. This is what happened: My phone was working fine with CM7 and latest version of CW Mod but suddenly everything started force closing. So what I did was to factory reset the phone from recovery wiping cache and davlik cache. After doing factory reset it stopped at splash screen itself and not booting up. Does factory reset removes rooting for mt4g?
After that, I tried to install ADB and root again but adb devices doesnt show my device when I am in recovery. But when I go to fastboot it, fastboot devices cmd shows my device.
I then tried to go back to stock by applying PD15IMG and it successfully applies it but now it gets stuck at "my"splash screen. What should I do now?
Thanks in advance.

Uh oh... Sounds like bad eMMc chip which no, can't be fixed. I'd see if you can check your eMMc but if not I believe your screwed and will have to send back to tmo.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App

Do you get any cache errors in recovery when wiping?
Did you upgrade your radio to a version other than stock before attempting to restore to factory using PD15IMG?
It's starting to sound like a bad eMMC at this point though. Those things are starting to fail left and right!

I will check eMMC and post it here. But yes, while wiping cache I get error E: cant open /cache/ or something like that so i assumed that it might be because i got unrooted and I wanted to root again (but i cant adb). When applying ROM, it exits saying Status 1. No, I didn't upgrade radio images.

Fc followed by bootloop followed by cache errors...definitely eMMc

Because of applying PD15 image I got original h-boot version (not engineering h-boot) so couldn't check eMMC. But I have radio version which is 26.03.02.26_M
If I assume that eMMC is gone then, Is there any other option of doing ANYTHING except sending it to TMobile as I am using it outside US.

Bootloader version has nothing to do with being able to check eMMC version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081243
Somewhere in there there's instructions for checking without root if you've lost it already.

Thanks for the link but I can't adb. fastboot shows my device but adb doesn't. I don't know if there is any problem with my drivers. because when i plug the phone in is shows ADB Interface in Device manager. Still I will check them again will try to put eMMC version ASAP.

Someone posted some instructions a while back that allowed you to check your eMMC version using terminal commands, so you could do it without root or ADB, but for the life of me I can't find them! I thought they were in the main eMMC serial thread, but maybe not. I'll keep looking.

I'm suffering from brain fade today. I forgot about the fact that your phone wasn't booting. If memory serves, there is a terminal option in CWM recovery. If your recovery is still usable, try selecting the terminal feature and enter those commands there. Honestly though, this would only serve to confirm what we already know. Your eMMC has failed, so there's isn't much hope. The good news is most people have had no trouble doing a warranty exchange, even when sending in a rooted phone. Good luck!

As I tried to flash PD15IMG it is now into stock recovery. Need to flash CWM using fastboot but dont know whether it would work or not because last time I tried (before applying PD15) it failed saying Status 1. Need to check that.
But you know what the bigger problem is, I bought it from Swappa.com and I don't even know whether I can exchange it or not. I will have to send it to my friend who is in the US as I am outside.
Do they give warranty card or something when you buy (I dont know as I am not the original buyer ) ??

Hey I'm in the situation where my phone won't even turn on now... I called HTC already and they're actually mailing in a battery thinking that it's the reason the phone won't charge or turn on...
What were the steps you went through to get the to take it in? Did you end up getting a new one or the one you sent in for repairs? You paid for shipping or any repair fees? Any input would be useful... let me know!
Thanks!

Flashing CWM??
Guys,
As I described my phone is in a boot loop but I can see it in fastboot but when i go to recovery it jst goes to bad state and have to remove battery. Is there a way to flash CWM recovery and opening adb shell as I might want to see what is eMMC and need to try this out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15299273&postcount=66 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039504&page=2
I know we can flash recovery from fastboot but when i tried that it gave me an error saying you remote not allowed (android sdk on Win 7).

You weren't in fastboot mode, but in hboot mode.
Choose "fastboot" to be able to flash.

touch screen not working

Hey guys, a few days ago I finally decided to root my phone and flash cynagen mod 7...
However yesterday evening my touch screen suddenly stopped working, so I can't unlock my phone...
its still showing screen but its not responding when I press anything...
Things ive tried: removing battery for 20 sec, removing battery to turn off the phone and start it up again.
Is it possible to fix this?
or does anyone have the stock Vodafone firmware so I can try flashing it and return it for warranty?

Try reflashing the Rom from recovery again maybe that will help, I think I saw a thread on here about a fix for that problem a few months ago but not sure as I never needed it so didn't read it.

You mean re flashing the stock Vodafone rom?
Any place where I can find it?
Btw even clockworldmod doesn't seem to respond to my buttons(the ones below the screen)
Only the physical buttons work...

Sorry I meant try reflashing your cm7 Rom again from recovery, use the volume buttons and the trackball to navigate in clockwork.

ill give it a shot, by the way when I tried to flash with RUU it didn't detect my phone.
Also when I boot up my phone with charge cable it stops responding and only the red charging light will burn(even when the battery is full, because it did this for hours a few days ago)
Also in clockwork when I go to advanced and key test it doesn't do anything when I press a key, It doesn't show anything in the log.
So I think its really broken.
Update: reflashed with cyanogen didn't fix it
And when I try to flash with WUU it says my phone is not connected
ofc I can't access my usb settings on the phone...

The charging bug comes with clockwork, when the phone is off if you plug in the charger it happens so I always make sure to hit the power button first wait till the splash screen has gone and then plug it in, its annoying but just pop the battery out and then reboot the phone. There's a fix for that too but it didn't work for me.
As for the other problems I'm not sure as I've never come across them on my phone before, I would definitely try reflashing first before using an ruu. If that doesn't help hang fire till someone a bit smarter than me sees this.

I just tried re flashing and that didn't help, I think my screen is really broken.
Including those home, menu back and search button.
only the power and the volume buttons and track ball work...
Update: sometimes my screen seems to work for a few seconds and then it doesn't again...
Depends on how I hold my phone...

Especialy by saying that last thing, one would think about a bad contact in the cable that connects your motherboard with your screen. I could be wrong, but I think the softkeys belong to the screen as well, so that would explane it. But I'm not sure about that last one.
You can try opening up your phone and see if the connection of the cable to the motherboard is still good. To open up the phone, you can folow the guide for the htc desire, it is said that they are alike.
Keep in mind that the bad connection can be IN that cable as well. So perhaps you have to look if you can buy a seperate cable somewhere (don'y know if that is possible).
I must stress out that I never opened this phone myself, so all the things I say here are based on what I've read on this forum. It just seems logic to me
One more thing: this all sounds risky. But since you are out of waranty, and since your phone doesn't work, I personally would give it a try.

So if anyone could give me one id be really happy.

I've changed the touchscreen on mine and can confirm the softkeys are attached to it, there's 2 separate cables though I think the one from the softkeys is only for the led's as mine broke, the buttons work fine but I have no lights behind them.

As you are looking for a ROM with hboot 1.02, I assume that before rooting you had the same hboot? Because then you must have gained root using AlphaRevX/Revolutionary, which installs a custom bootloader. This hboot can, to my knowleadge, not be downgraded to the original one. In other words: you have voided your waranty and there is no way to cover it up...

Damn, will they figure this out or is their a change they are just like oh yeah the screen is broken lets fix it?
As its clearly a hardware issue and not a software issue...
Other whys ill just fix it my self or go to a phone store...
update: I tried flashing SUU but it keeps giving me a message that my phone is not connected...
But the phone store told me rooting does not void my warranty as its a hardware issue and not a software issue.. they told me they could send it for me to a special company that repairs phones and is qualified by mayor factories like HTC,Samsung,etc.
But they also told me it would be easier to just contact Vodafone for repairs as that is free and if not I could always come back.

I'd send it back to Vodafone, best case they'll switch the touchscreen power it up for a quick test then send it back, worst case is they may check your software versions... then send it back unrepaired.
I used to fix iphones and ipads for an insurance company and hardly ever had enough time for checking software, just fix it, send it out and crack on with the next one!

dont panic your phone is all right
It also happened in my case.Go to the following link
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz
and flash a suitable ruu rom .it will definitely fix ur phone.or u can just boot into recovery by pressing volume and power button simultaneously during the boot and flash cm 7 rom.

I already re flashed cm7, and at first it didn't help then suddenly it did help and now its doing nothing all over again...
Update: re flashed again and still nothing.

AFAIK reflashing a custom rom from a custom recovery should not solve the issue.
But reflashing a stock ROM (= RUU) should solve that. Also reflashing a stock ota update will solve that. Ota update needs to be flashed from stock recovery. Do either of these things depending on what your hboot version is (if hboot is latest then ota will be option for most times) Also remember PC49IMG method if you presently have custom recovery.
P.S : what all I said is thinking that it is software issue. this shouldn't help if it is related to hardware.

I was wondering if there was a way to flash using that method, as I said I never needed to flash an ruu yet so don't know much about em. Just saw your other post explaining how to use PC49IMG to flash an ruu. Thought i'd copy it here as it may help.
bharatgaddameedi said:
If it still had the issue, then install the RUU by pc49img method. Download the correct ruu for your phone. Donot connect phone to PC. On windows PC click on start and type %temp% and enter. This opens the user temporary folder of your PC. Now run the ruu. Now if you observe the temp folder, there will be extra folders created which have folder name enclosed in {} brackets. Search in these folders for the file ROM.zip. Copy the ROM.zip to a safe location. Now format your memory card to fat32 (must) and put the ROM.zip to the root of memory card. You should use memory card reader. Then rename the ROM.zip to PC49IMG.ZIP . Then insert memory card in phone and reboot to hboot menu from where you can update/reflash the partitions. If still not working, clear storage again from hboot menu.

Did that and now its on stock Vodafone firmware
But the touch screen still isn't working.
Oh well now I can send it back to Vodafone for repairs.
Thanks for the help
Btw: is their anyway to get the original hboot back?

For maybe some more like me that want to go back to what it use to be with the hboot S-OFF, S-ON issue.
I had my phone S-OFF with alpharevx beta. Used CM7 -stable for couple days but decided i wanted to go back to all original. I first RUU my phone with the RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.2 4H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe file. Boot it up, made sured it runs, then did what is instructed below here;
To be able to do this you need HTC USB drivers installed. Install the HTC pakage, reboot, uninstall the HTC-
Sync software, keep the drivers! reboot PC again.
Power off your phone. Plug in your USB cable to phone. Press volume down and powerup your phone. After it
settle navigate down and choose fastboot option.
1. Unpack these files to your c:\fastboot
2. Open up your windows command promt (WinVista/7 users rightclick choose run as Administrator)
3. in command promt type CD\ then press enter
4. then your should be in C:\
5. type cd fastboot
6. then you should now be in dir C:\fastboot
7. Im bored to death typing, look below. Beware of each command ends with enter. After success, reboot.
C:\fastboot>fastboot oem mb 9C068490 1 30
... OKAY
C:\fastboot>fastboot flash hboot hboot_buzz_7225_1.01.0001.nb0
sending 'hboot' (512 KB)... OKAY
writing 'hboot'... OKAY
Files needed (Windows version): megaupload.com/?d=UO9L74I9
Works perfectly for me.
* NOTE: Im not responsible for your phone if you brick/kill it. These steps worked for me!

[Q] desire Z dead when i try write orginal ruu file

i had ruu file with 2.3.3 and my phone in 2.2 when i try to flash it after 2 min the process rich 14% and(hboot updating) stay on it for 45 min .when i see nothing happend in such time i disconnect my phone and try too recover it but not sucsses .
i try to flash with other ruu files and get same result

Sounds like you might have the bad emmc chip.
Some info on the issue here
-Nipqer

Just a guess:
Wasn't there also an issue with flashing a official ruu (don't know wether this is the case here) when you're rooted and have s-off.
I believe I remember something along the ways of, that somewhere during the flashing process, s-on would be restored and your basically end up being stuck in between?

there is really not too much to worry about, if you private message me, I can give you Josh's information here on XDA - he can unbrick pretty much any G2/Desire-Z for $40 and has done 100's of them - he has like almost 500 Thanks on here -
the only thing he can't fix is a fried emmc chip, but thankfully those are relatively rare!
(and if the emmc chip is fried, then HTC will fix it, because that truly is their fault, so no worries!)
(HTC knows of the emmc chip failures, and that is why in this case they are not going to give you a hassle about the warranty, sort of like when an auto company has done a silent recall, so to speak)
