[Q] Please help with bricked phone

I've spent quite a while tonight FINALLY getting this MyTouch 4g (Glacier) to root and now I'm stuck in a bind.
Everything seemed to be going well and I got the Cyanogenmod 7 flashed onto the phone via Clockwork ROM Manager. Then the first time I rebooted it got to the Android logo with the spinning arrow and went into a constant loop. After about 20 minutes of this I pulled the battery and tried to restore the phone via the recovery image I created with clockwork. Here is the current status of the phone:
1. CAN get into HBOOT and HBOOT USB (but I dont think ADB can see it, or at least I haven't been able to get it to)
2. CANNOT get into recovery, phone just reboots itself to the red exclamation
3. PD15IMG.zip tries to restore the phone but fails.
What can I do to get the phone back into some sort of usable condition. I dont care where, I can start over as long as I have something to work with.

Nope, looks to me like the equivalent of what you're asking is that it says "Fail UZ"

It failed to unzip the update. Try redownloading the pd15img. This time verify the MD5SUM and try it again.

ALrighty.....this is my st00pid face. I guess in my lack of sleep last night I forgot to check the MD5SUM.
That worked....now let's see if I can break it again!!

Cool Glad it worked for you.

New question, essentially the same topic:
This whole thing started because I tried to flash CyanogenMod 7 onto the phone and it messed up. The phone reboots into Cyanogen and the little android on the skateboard with the arrow just goes into a repeating cycle. It will come on for 10ish seconds at a time and then just cycle back and do the same thing. I've let it go for >20 minutes and nothing changes.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this ROM working? It took me so long to get it rooted with S-off that I'll be darned if I'm stopping now!
Thanks in advance!

Verify the MD5SUM of the ROM as well. You may of gotten a bad download.
What i personally do when i download and install a new OS is
Download OS to computer
push the OS to the SD card
verify the MD5SUM
reboot into recovery
nandroid backup
factory reset
flash new OS
flash g/apps (if needed)
reboot system
to check the MD5SUM while it's on the SDcard just use the line command from either the terminal emulator or CMD prompt.
Code:
# md5sum /mnt/sdcard/<file_name>.extension

You can also check the md5 sum when its on the SDcard using the free mand5 app from the market.

Thanks to everyone for helping out, I finally got it working last night when I had time to sit back down with it.
I was trying to use the ROM Manager version of the Cyanogen instructions and it ended up that that was the problem. I switched over to the recovery version based on your suggestions and it worked great.
Thanks again!

General feeling around here is that the only thing ROM Manager is good for is flashing ClockworkMod recovery. There are folks who won't even do that with it.

hold volume down button while booting up, then hold volume up after fastboot is selected to activate it.
after that, you use fastboot commands on your computer.

But I was using the automatic unlocker . I still need to put in commands myself?

I believe the automatic unlocker will pause and should give clear instructions ask you to do specific things that have to be done by a human (power down and reboot into certain mode, etc), you just need to follow these instructions. After that, you just hit enter to continue.
If you are unable to follow these instructions, probably it's too much for you...
To reboot into fastboot, for example: press the power button, to turn off the phone; then hold the volume down button, press the power button again, you'll see "Fastboot", then release volume down, press volume up, you enter the "fastboot" mode

Too much for me lol I know how to get to all the menus that its telling me to go to but nothing else happens. the guide said nothing about typing in anything which is why I choose it. Especially since the automatic root worked easy as pie ...
Sent from my Atrix-4G, stock 2.3.4 (rooted)

You want help, laugh when people who are trying to help say it might be too much for you, yet you provide us close to absolute no information.
What guide are you following? We might know, but it still is your job to provide a link.
What is the step you are stuck at?
Why, what isn't going according to plan? What do you see happening in your sceen / phone?
If you can't explain properly, provide some screenshots.
You say you can get to all the menus it tells you to, yet in the first step you can't seem to get into fastboot. Your speech is unclear and what you want is hard to understand.
My opinion is you aren't ready to unlock your bootloader. You know very little about your phone or how it works. That's the community's fault really, with all these automatic scripts, which are really nice if you know what you're doing, but end up promoting easy ignorance in people like you.
I just hope in a month or two you are not one of those writing "OMG, please, I arrempted to downgrade by SBF and know my phone won't boot, what gives???"
Read up on some information a learn how these things work. It is the best you can do. Owning an android device and modding it can be great fun, but it does require some effort on your part. If I were you, I would learn how to unlock my bootloader with pudding, just to understand what is actuallly going on.
Either that, or you can learn how to ask for help properly and politely. Your choice.
Also, wrong section, This is not Q&A.

My girlfriend was rushing me so I tried to type up something quick but I used this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182871
As you can see like I can see it does not say I need to type anything in the cmd (which I have seen in YouTube videos and isn't that hard) but thought hey automatic sounds good so I gave it a try I don't have any problems getting the phone to fast boot or rsd as I've used the stock recovery to clear cache in an attempt to fix something. The part I'm stuck at is step 6
You are right I don't know alot about android which is why I didn't start messing with my phone the day I got it but I've been all over this site (well the atrix at least) and YouTube.
I appreciate any help and sorry for the misplaced thread

doesnt give you the soft brick i think

So, let's see if I got this, you are having trouble at the part it says it should restart? Or before that? After you choose the number and press enter, what happens?
This could be a driver problem... If windows is not recognizing a device, it's common... Which windows are you using? I used to have some problems on XP and vista...

I actually had to use a Vista system to get this to work.
Now, when the instructions say it should "Restart", at that point, have you been in "Fastboot" yet? Have you been to the part where you have to enter your "Unique ID"?
This is important to know because throughout the bootloader-unlocking process the phone should be restarted a couple of times. It sounds like you have at least gotten through the part where it flashes "Pudding" but it sounds like you haven't done the "fastboot" part yet.
Are you referring to "Step 6" in the actual post or within the script? If the power button does not work then just pull the battery. As long as it is not in the process of doing something you should be fine.
I also want to point out that the program you are using only requires that you type in your Unique ID, everything else is automated, not to mention the file contains everything you need including adb, fastboot, RSDlite, Superuser, Pudding, and a working recovery so it makes it very easy for the end user to not have to find everything on their own. The script unlocks the bootloader, roots your phone, and flashes CWM recovery.
Either way, please provide more details if you are still having issues. Good luck.

I wasn't blaming vista I was just saying cause I've had problem with that is in the past.
I've basically done nothing haven't flashed or wiped my phone yet I was basically stuck at or around the first step cause it first asks for RSD protocol and then it says restart phone but the power button has no effect why in that mode nd when I pull the battery to manually put it in fast boot nothing happens nd I get some kind of batch error when it trays to get my unique id...
But got the computer back today so I'm gonna work on it again
Thanx for help ... will update you guys when I can

Actually, I followed the method you linked (old netbook running XP) and got a softbrick on the automatic reboot after flashing pudding. I was so busy watching RSD Lite do its thing that I didn't catch that my phone had actually rebooted; it selected fastboot mode on its own so I was able to issue the unlock command. It took.

"7.Plug your device into your computer. RSD Lite should recognize your device and say “Model: NS Flash Olympus” and “Connected…” The acronym 'NS' may be different for your device people!!"
its not doing this(i have rsdlite 4.5.5 because i cant find 5.5)
edit: got on to next problem

Thanks everyone

Help! I think my Mytouch 4G is bricked!!! ​
i have seen a LOT of these threads lately, and this thread is made to hopefully be able solve some of your problems.
most people think that a brick means "can't get into android system, phone is dead beyond repair." most of the time, this is NOT true.
Disclaimer: Please make sure you know what you are doing before proceeding. if your device wasn't bricked before but you somehow screwed it up, i will not be responsible. YOU are responsible for whatever happens to your device. i am just here to give you a few tips, and to help you out. once again, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING BEFORE DOING IT!
Needed Things:
-computer
-android SDK, ADB. PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO INSTALL AND LEARN TO USE ADB, IT COULD SAVE YOUR DEVICE BIG TIME. we have plenty of guides on how to use adb, please search them up and READ THROUGH THEM.
-a Mytouch 4G, or HTC Panache
-USB cable
-SDcard (doesn't matter what size)
ask and answer these two questions to yourself:
1) can you enter bootloader?
2) can you enter recovery?
if you've answered yes to any one of them, then chances are, you are still saved.
Note: if you can't enter either one of those, and your device doesn't show any signs of life, then don't bother reading on, you are truly bricked.
Notice: When you try flashing the PD15IMG.zip in bootloader, make sure the phone is NOT connected to the computer.
For S-On users:
Q: help! my phone is stuck on the Mytouch logo screen!
A: pull the battery, and see if you can get into the bootloader using volume down+power buttons
if you can get into the bootloader:
1) see if you can wipe data/do a factory reset in bootloader.
2) flash the stock Glacier PD15IMG.zip file choose from either
Android 2.2.1 OR Android 2.3.4
rename both files to PD15IMG.zip if not already.
-put both files in the ROOT of your SDcard, reboot into bootloader/hboot, and follow the onscreen instructions
note: if you are still unclear on what to do, read the "HOW TO RESTORE TO STOCK" section
Q: bootloader is giving me Fail-PU errors when trying to update
A: refer to the eMMC section
For S-Off Rooted users:
rooted S-Off devices are a bit more complicated.
Q: help! i can't get into the android system, phone stuck on Mytouch logo!
A: like for S-On users, see if you can get into either the bootloader, but also the recovery (usually clockworkmod).
if you can get into either of those, wipe data/factory reset, and reboot.
Q: bootloader factory reset, still stuck on Mytouch screen
A: well, if you have clockworkmod recovery (or 4EXT recovery) get into the recovery, wipe all user data/cache/dalvik cache and try reflashing a backup, or flash a new rom.
Q: reflashing didn't work, clockworkmod is giving me errors about mounting something.
A: new way! try to clear cache and dalvik in recovery, somtimes that works. thanks to urmothersluvr for reminding me.
A: there are two things that cause this. both have VERY similar symptoms. the first is because of the failed eMMC chip (refer to eMMC chip section), and the second is because the recovery got messed up, probably because you've been switching between a lot of EXT3 and EXT4 roms. if this is the case, just download the PD15IMG.zip (Android 2.2.1) file (IT WILL RETURN YOU TO STOCK) and start over again. OR you can reflash the recovery through adb (MUST HAVE ENG HBOOT 0.85.2007). thanks to Nicgraner for reminding me! if bootloader gives Fail-PU errors, refer to eMMC section.
HOW TO RESTORE TO STOCK​
here are clear instructions on how to flash to stock using the PD15IMG.zip file:
1) download the PD15IMG.zip file:
Android 2.2.1 Android 2.3.4
2) rename the file to PD15IMG.zip if not already
3) place the file in the root of your SDcard, meaning not in any folders
4) power off your device, and reboot into hboot/bootloader by press and holding power + volume down buttons
5) hboot/bootloader should recognize the file, and ask if you want to update
6) select "yes", and wait for the update to finish
*Selections are made with the volume buttons, and hit the power button to select*
7) when the update is finished, hit reboot
8) wait for the device to boot up (may take awhile, first time boot only)
9) congrats, you are now back to stock Mytouch 4G, either 2.2.1, or 2.3.4

if you think you have a failed eMMC...
many things can cause the eMMC to die. if you suspect that your eMMC chip has died, please check your eMMC serial using this guide here using adb (for rooted users only, since you must be in recovery for the command to work).
symptoms of failed eMMC:
-massive lagging all of the sudden in android system
-phone suddenly shut down, and you can't turn it on, no matter what you do (if this happens, then yes, you're bricked)
-recovery showing errors about not being able to mount things
-BOOTLOADER SHOWING FAIL-PU WHEN TRYING TO RESTORE BACK TO STOCK USING PD15IMG.ZIP, IF THIS HAPPENS, THEN YES, THAT MEANS YOU ARE TRULY BRICKED. FAIL-PU MEANS FAILED PARTITION UPDATE, MEANING THAT YOU CANNOT WRITE TO THE PHONE/EMMC CHIP ANYMORE.

Ok, so my chip has died and i can't turn my phone on. can i send it in to t-mobile to replace it?
A: yes! BUT YOU MUST STILL HAVE YOUR WARRANTY WITH T-MOBILE. if you are S-On, you should have absolutely NO problems replacing at all. if you are S-Off, you might encounter some minor problems, but replacing should still be ok. what i did was play dumb with them, and they just sent me a new one. my old one died of bad eMMC, it was rooted, S-off and everything, even the splash screen said "rooted HTC Glacier" on it.
hopefully, this guide has helped you understand more of what has just happened to your beloved Glacier (MT4G).
if i forgot anything, or if you have anything to add to this, PLEASE LET ME KNOW
if i have helped, please hit thanks!

for the corrupted recovery you don't necessarily need to flash pd15img..you could boot into bootloader then fastboot and reflash the recovery img of your choice. Although some may not know how to.. just a thought
EDIT: Forgot to explain why lol, flashing pd15img will make you lose root whereas just pushing the new recovery will not!
Don't mean to be trollin, just some advice haha

If it fails can I still use my phone I'm on? I know my cache won't mount
Edit: fixed it by formatting cache and rebooting recovery. U should add that up there for cache not mounting.

OP updated with instructions on how to return to stock using the PD15IMG.zip file.... if you have any suggestions, PM me

I'm trying to load the pd15img.zip. I have a completely stock phone and for some reason it got stuck on the bootup screen so I'm trying to flash it to fix it.
However after I enter the bootloader and it finds the file, loads it and then checks it, it just returns to the bootloader screen. It never asks me to flash it.
Does anyone have a solution??

Exact same issue as mupepe. Does this mean the phone isn't saveable?

is your phone connected to the computer? just wondering.
also, might be a bad download, try downloading again.....

It is not connected to the PC when flashing. I'll try redownloading the IMG. I get a "Wrong or bad image" thing in Hboot. Formatted SD card to fat 32 and tried a different card. This is a weird issue. I warrantied out the phone but TMO sent me a replacement with the washed out screen so I'd love to fix this.

Mine isn't connected to the computer. I get no sort of error. I'll redownload the image in a bit and report back. Thanks!

thanks a lot

Anyone have luck fixing the No Image or Wrong Image problem or the IMG file just checking loading then doing nothing?

could be a bad download

I downloaded it again and it still doesn't work

****. well 2.3.4 send me back to the bootloader screen and 2.2.1 gives me the main version is older error. All the solutions I've found to that error say to install 2.3.4 which doesn't work! ahhhhhh!

Problems
I bought a MyTouch 4G from Craigslist today (for $ 80, it has the superior screen, is cosmetically a 9.5/10 and it came with all accessories) and it is stuck at the MyTouch 4G screen. One of the local phone places told the seller that the phone needed to be flashed which I tried to do. I downloaded the file in this thread for 2.3.4, put it on the freshly FAT32 formatted MicroSD card, I booted into the bootloader, it found the PD15IMG.zip file, it loaded and checked it and went into the screen with the two green arrows and the one green arrow pointing downwards. Then every time in the middle of it, the phone turns itself off (battery is fully charged). It never asked if I wanted to update either. What could be the problem?

...lol i'm starting to think the link to the 2.3.4 PD15IMG.zip is wrong..
sorry guys if it is...
hmm have you tried to use the 2.2.1 instead?

I bought two MyTouch 4G's from the same seller (a couple) and his phone works fine, only hers is corky LOL. Both HBOOT screens are identical too, I checked his software version and it is the latest one (2.32.531.1), so I assume that hers is the same, it also shows the same date, July 15 2011 and the same radio 26.13.04.19_M in HBOOT. Maybe there is no PD15IMG.zip file for this latest updated ROM yet? After trying both different PD15IMG.zip files (2.3.4 and 2.2.1), I've been getting the "main version is older" errors on both. No Fail-PU though, so that makes me hopeful I'm thinking that she updated to the latest version and somehow it got corrupted, that is why the phone is stuck at the MyTouch 4G loading screen and won't go any further.
Update: I'm up and running again !! I found a PD15IMG.zip file on the t-mobile support website that worked specifically for the latest 2.32.531.1 update !! Here is the download link (I've uploaded it to megaupload): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=X1EAIPBJ

VS980 TWRP bootloop after botched lollipop OTA while rooted like a dummy

So yeah. As the title says I had a rooted VS980 on 4.4.2 with some bloat removed and I accidently hit the wrong button when prompted for the upgrade, I was in a hurry. yes, I'm a moron, and yes, I know this is probably wasting someone's valuable time and I thoroughly apologize for my n00bishness
having said that, I have tried to go through various tuts but none of them seem to be working. yes, it's likely that I am simply doing it wrong, but whatever the case I am stuck with my phone in a bootloop always returning to the TWRP recovery. I believe that means it is soft bricked so I'm hoping this can be fixed fairly easily with the right direction and some patience for my ignorance. I can't seem to get it into download mode with turning it off, holding the volume+ button and plugging it in, it just goes to twrp. :'(
my hope is to get a rooted lollipop. if that is not possible then I would be fine with going back to stock or possibly even a custom rom if it's not too awfully complicated. honestly, I'm at a point where I'm beginning to accept that I probably shouldn't be screwing around with it too much and will likely bite the bullet and just keep my phone stock since there are really only a few minor irritants that make me want to root it.
any help is very much appreciated.

actually, it doesn't look to be the same problem. i dont have download mode, but i do have recovery. it boots to twrp like a champ. what i think i really need is how to get the flash file VS98011A_01.zip on my phone via ADB Sideload, specifically when i cant get the drivers to work.
i've tried the following drivers:
LG_VZW_United_WHQL_v2.14.1.exe
LG_VZW_United_WHQL_v2.20.0.exe
LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN310AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.10.1_3.10.1.0
I may very well be mistaken about what needs to happen, i'm no expert, obviously, but from everything ive read any of those should have worked. i think if i can get the right flash on the phone i should be able to flash it via twrp no?

I"ll help
You need to adb sideload xdabbebs download mode restore and flash back to stock. Here is an excellent guide on adb sideloading, download xdabbeb restore download zip and put it where it tells you to. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559200

i just happened to have a brand new data cable, tried again with same result so its not media related unless there is an issue with the plug itself, but it's charging and the Device manager shows the correct name ie VS980, it just has a yellow bang on it and i cant find a driver that changes that.
read some more and found others with the same issue apparently which led me to here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715408
which is where i found the "download mode restore" file you mentioned(i didnt see it in the thread you provided), but without the ability to get adb usb command to work i dont see how i can use it.
any ideas?

Put the zip on usb otg and flash it.

awesome, ty sir. i happened to have one of those laying around from when i cracked my screen on my old one and couldnt interact with the screen. took a while to find it buried but i have it and i have successfully been able to access a thumb drive. i think that might be all i need.
will report back though regardless.

ok, now i'm rrrrrEEAALLYY freakin confused...
successfully flashed (via the install section of twrp with usb otg thumbdrive mounted.)
xdabbeb_vs98028a_bootstack.zip
and
xdabbeb_vs982.5_1.1.0.zip
from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g2/development/xdabbeb-s-vs982-5-v1-0-0-t2975551
but when i reboot, it goes directly to twrp still.
wat? :'(

ok, installed this:
VS980 39A Firmware
from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g2/development/vs98039a-stock-fw-t3051560
rebooted, went straight to twrp again.
installed
Restore to 100% stock
from the same page.
rebooted. it went into an upgrade screen that errored and then rebooted before i got a chance to write down the error. but when it came back up, it started "android is upgrading".
so it looks like this may have worked. again, will update the success/failure when i know for sure, but thanks for the help yall. i really do appreciate it.

WOO-FREAKIN-HOOOO!!!
at the setup wizard now.

Your fix worked for me also. Only used the two files listed above and wiped dalvik after flashing both, one after the other with no reboot in between. Many thanks.

sweet, i'm glad someone else found it useful.

Yep, now another problem though. ..no mobile data. .. working on it.
I'd suggest flashing the files in post 12 (I didn't and am having TONS of problems)
So I really didn't get a fix- still working on it.
I have no download mode, and not way to get the serial port to display in device manager, so the LG Mobile support tool won't see my phone....
