Root help - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I used the un lockers guide for rooting.
Went through it and then go to check via Terminal and it says dennied with NO # symbol.
When I boot into Hboot, it says the following:
glacier pvt eng s-0ff
hboot 0.85.2007 (pd1510000)
microp 0429
radio and some number
emmc boot
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks.

do the whole process again until root sticks permanently. Sometimes I've seen people do it 3 times till it finally stuck. But for me I needed to do the whole process twice.

Cool. I will try again when I get home.

I had issue with visionary, just went back and checked the boxes, after that I was good to go

Another quick question... once I put the rootinflg files on the SD card I don't need to plug the phone in via USB anymore right?

If you have engineering bootloader with s-off (which you do according to OP) then all you need to do is run Visionary again and the root should stick.
Good luck.

Well you need to use a goldcard to get an engineering bootloader on your phone.
But if your phone won't read the sdcard I suppose you're screwed. Try to make the goldcard again, if that fails try a different sdcard and make a goldcard of that one. You will just need to pull the battery out of the phone, hold the back button, put the battery back in the phone while holding the back button. From there I think it should start reading the goldcard (hit the back button again if not) and it should eventually ask you if you want to start the update. Hit the trackball to start. Of course all of this is assuming that you have a working goldcard. Afterwards you can just follow the rest of the instructions. You can also use the link in my signature for reference. Good luck.

Possibly bricked mytouch 3g

Well I followed the 1.2 tutorial and successfully flashed the image file all the way up to the recovery and radio stuff. Now the phone will not boot it freezes at the htc magic boot screen and also I don't have root access. Also I can get into fastboot but the usb is not working now so I an kinda stuck. Any help would be appreciated.

I just had this problem, I re-installed the RUU via usb while the phone was on and that let me try again.
edit - that might not make any sense actually, since I followed a different guide and having just read through the one you are following. I am not 100% but I'm pretty sure if you did it that it would work though.
How do you know you don't have root? Can you get into recovery (home+power). You may need to hold it down for a while to get it going.

I held it down for a good few minutes and I noticed the phone does not boot at all it just sits at the HTC boot logo forever, allthough it doesnt flash vibrate or do any weird stuff just hangs.
Nm I was able to re-flash sappimg and the phone is now fully functional Also the cyanogen rom I downloaded from the tutorial was corrupt just fyi for those having problems.

so as you can see i got the hboot installed but now it just stays at the rogers boot screen i do have fastboot but no adb and the clockmode recovery but it keeps crashing or put the phone in to boot loop. I have done almost twenty fours hours of reading but am just really confused so i have a few questions keeping in mind that i know very little so please be patient with me
1) i have read that you can fastboot a rom on which i think is the problem
but don't know the commands to do this can some one post them or send me in the right direction
2) the clockworkmode keeps crashing can i put another custom recovery and if so what would be a good/stable one for my phone

There's a guide on the first page by mumilover. You need to look at step 5. The 6.35 radio requires a specific recovery that you can't get from ROM manager.

[Q] Semi Bricked 32A

I think i have semi bricked my magic (vodafone) after trying to apply a sappimg.nbh without checking if it was the right for my phone...
Now i cant access the phone,it gets stuck at the vodafone screen,but i can access fastboot mode and hboot.

I tried to add a recovery img via fastboot but i get error at cmd fastboot(remote:not allow) so i guess i unrooted it...
What are my options so i could fix my phone?
Thanks in advance.
Radio SPL mismatch but should be easy to fix. Need to get your version number.
Fastboot getvar version-main

Thanks for your quick reply
i used the getvar and it says : version-main: 2.16.151.3
One more that I forgot.
Fastboot getvar Cid (I think that's right, coming from the top of my head).

it says <waiting for device> and nothing happens...
Make a goldcard and download this:
https://rapidshare.com/files/436753940/2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip
Rename it to sappimg.zip(not sappimg.zip.zip).
Flash it using hboot mode.
That image will give you eng spl, from there we can bring your phone back to live.
Is there a way to create a goldcard without the use of a phone?i can't use adb..but i've read somewhere that it can be done with a linux live cd
Do the goldcard using ANY android device...
I don't own an other android device.A friend of mine has one but it is unrooted and new,is there any chance it will cause any damage on the phone?By the way,i think there is an app on the market called goldcard helper,is it easier to get the CID that way?

Yes to the app, no to the goldcard causing damage. It doesn't mod anything on the phone.

Got the goldcard working,now it says in hboot/fastboot mode:

Bricked magic?

OK i've seen a million of these threads and i just want to confirm that i've bricked the htc magic my brother JUST gave me. It was running cm6 froyo redux and i wanted to get ginger yoshi on there. To do that i had to change the radio. I flashed the radio and then restarted as instructed. But then the phone went into boot loop. I can't boot into recovery and i'm not entirely sure how to access the bootloader. It is S-OFF if that gives me any hope at all.
Thanks for any help
If you have s off you could try mumilovers fastboot commander....I say this method as i found it so easy, just make sure u know what phone u have before doing anymore
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA App
Yeah. Fastboot commander is great tool.
Btw, three modes:
Back + Power (fastboot)
Home + Power (recovery)
Volumedown + Power (hboot)
If phone does not load into any mode => brick

thanks guys. Will try today and get back to you
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
no luck getting into any of those modes. still getting boot loop.
almost had a glimpse of hope. Turned phone on and it didn't go into a boot loop. However, i foolishly turned it off to access fastboot. Will try again later and see.
You must turn phone off before load into any mode. Remove battery and place it back when bootlooping
Similar Problem!
Hey guys! I got a similar problem. I tried to get Ginger Yoshi 1.5 on my phone but had to change the radio and spl. I managed to change them both to 3.22 radio and 1.33.2010 spl but it changed from 32A to 32B. When I saw that I thought something must had gone wrong. I tried changing it back but what I did was a mistake, I think I flashed the stock spl wich I think it was 1.33.0013. I am now going crazy because my phone wont boot or go into recovery mode, all I get is fastboot mode but when I try to flash a new spl or radio I get "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" . Now I'm stuck with that problem and don't know what to do. Any help? (I posted here because all other threads seem to be from 2010, they're old and nobody answers them, and because it is a similar problem).
Thanks!
