im not sure i understand.. are you sure the .zip youre trying to flash is on the root of your sd card? youre sure the .zip youre trying to flash is not in any folder on the sd card?

I downloaded the file from xda. All I did was take the folder and drop it in my sd card, but it's like it doesn't read any zip file

not sure what recovery you use, but try to place the .zips on the root of your sdcard, not in any folder.

Search google for a tool to format your card with. Most of the time you can format it normally as fat32 but youre actually supposed to format it them a special way

nop... formatted it from computer=no good, on the fone=no good, using a different software=no good....

Exchange the card it may be bad, I've held off buying a 32gb card because half of the reviews on Newegg for 32gb cards are negative and report failures or DOAs. Seems like the techs a little immature. Sandisk is the most reliable brand though.

if it had any bad sectors why would it work with no problems on my computer... with sd reader or usb reader...... i think its not working coz it does not have those rsa keys on it n simply copying to the new sd does not work....

Where did you get your SD card from cuz it sounds like it may be starting to go bad. I'd try formating again with a stock ROM...bit of a pain i know, but might produce a better result also you may wanna try to just reformat a few times in a row with your current ROM to see if it corrects the problem.
best option is if it keeps up is to pull your SD card out of your device and format with a computer when u have access to one then format using your device.

[Q] - PD15IMG.zip not loading in hboot?

So had some issues getting CM7 on, but after a bit of work got it.
But just for the heck of it i wanted to go back to stock. I downloaded serveral versions of PD15IMG.zip all same file size and MD5 values.
When giong to the hboot screen it comes up with some errors saying PD15daig.zip not found and PD15daig.*** (cant remember all the ext)
I am directly placing the PD15IMG.zip on the SD card in the root. I am not sure at all why is not loading, from what i understand i should get a loading bar in the top right of the screen and then after a moment it should promt me to flash?
Anyways, hboot info is
S-off
hboot 0.86.000
microp-0429
radio-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot
[date here]
Any help would be great.
My phone is working just fine with CM7 but i WOULD like the optoin to flip back over to stock OEM with s on

What method of root did you use? If you used the gfree method, you can't just go back to stock by flashing the PD151IMG.zip file.

Make sure your SD card is formated to the fat 32 file system. Also a common mistake in windows 7 ppl will name the file PD15IMG.zip.zip

Incorrect. You definitely can go back to stock after gfree using PD15IMG.zip (I did), but you will retain S-OFF.
Also just to be sure, the file name is PD15IMG.zip, not PD151IMG.zip. The number in the middle is 15, not 151.
In addition to the .zip.zip issue, I will also point out that some microSD cards simply aren't recognized by the MT4G bootloader. My class 2 16 GB microSD never works for PD15IMG, but the class 4 8 GB that came with the Panache does work every time.

When hboot checks the sdcard for updates it will give you a choice either yes or no. Volume up is yes click for updating. How long should a Mytouch 4g take to update the radio with PD15IMG.zip? The loading bar on mine goes almost all the way up. I have the Update is in progress... Do not power off the device on my screen for more than an hour. Is this phone toast?

does it say Fail-PU?

I recently had a goofy issue like this. I was putting the PD15IMG file on the SD card using the ADB Push command.
That was my problem. (I have no idea why). But ADB was only pushing like 99.99% of the file. It was exactly 53 bytes short every single time.
I put the file on the SD card using the drag and drop method from my computer's file manager. The entire file went and it worked like a charm.
If the bootloader isn't flashing the PD15IMG file it's because it sees something wrong with it. Try another method to get the file onto the SD card and see if you get a better result.

3 Steps to Prepare a PD15IMG.zip so that HBOOT will recognize it
BACKUP MICRO SD CARD CONTENTS BEFORE YOU PROCEED!!
1. Format Micro SD card to FAT32 (Sometimes larger micro sd cards won't be recognized by hboot, so try using 4GB and below)
2. Make sure you rename it to PD15IMG.zip and not PD15IMG.zip.zip (Very common mistake with windows users because hidden known file extensions are enabled.
3. Double check md5sum or check the file properties to make sure the size of the file remains unchanged when its on your computer and when its copied over to the micro sd card.

At that time no fail-pu were showing, as of this morning I get a fail-pu for the bootloader only. Also in ADB I found that it could not read mmcblk i.e. unable to read MBR

I had the same issue, it is resolved now. What I did, backup my sdcard data to pc. Format(partition) sdcard using CWM recovery(you can use ubuntu too). Put back everything to sdcard. Now hboot is able to load PD15IMG.zip file. I am using 8GB class 4 sdcard. Hope will work for you too.

MyTouch 4G stuck on boot loop, s-on

Hello,
I am trying to fix my friends MyTouch 4G. The phone was in a pretty terrible state when he got it. The power button was not working, but I have opened the phone up and found a way of making it work.
Another problem, which I can't seem to work around is that the phone is stuck in "bootloop" (i think thats what it's called). Basically when I plug the charger in, an orange light blinks on top left of the phone and the "mytouch 4g screen" comes up. But then it goes away again and the phone restarts. It keeps doing that.
I can get the phone into the (hboot?) screen which gives me the options of fastboot, recovery, factory reset, simlock, and image crc. I have tried recovery and factory reset, both don't work. I have searched around a lot but to no avail.
Here is more information on the "hboot" screen, if it's needed:

If you have the .zip on your sd card when you boot into hboot it should read it automatically, asking permission first.

Nope, not working. I have the file on my MicroSD card, but when I get to the hboot screen it just gives me the same options as I mentioned above. Isn't asking for any permissions.
Maybe I have the wrong file, in which case can anyone redirect me to the right one?

I have read both these posts before. According to them, I need to put the .zip file into the root of the SDcard, which I can't access since the phone won't boot up. I have even tried putting the file into MicroSD card, but still nothing.

If you have an SD reader copy it while on PC to the root of the SD card. If not and you have another Android phone put the SD card in it and copy the file to the root of the SD card. If need the file download it with another Android phone with that SD card inserted, then copy it to root of the SD card.

The root of the SD card is the internal memory right? Well if it is, I can't access that without turning on the phone, or without mounting it to the PC, which I can't because the phone is stuck in boot-loop.
I have already put the file in the external MicroSD card, however it doesn't seem to work like that. How can I access the internal storage to put the .zip file there when I can't start the phone?

If your PC has a card reader insert the micro SD card in an adapter, plug it into your PC download the pd15img.zip to your PC, then copy it to your SD card root directory.
Then boot into bootloader and your phone will recognize it and ask to upgrade. The root of your card is placing the file in no folder.

When we say root of sdcard we mean the black memory card you can remove. Its not the internal memory.
So download the pd15img.zip from your PC, boot into hboot and connect the device into the computer. It should read your sdcard. Move the pd15img.zip to your sdcard. Disconnect your device from pc, turn off you device, remove the battery and reinstall. Boot into hboot and it should automatically read the pd15img.zip.
If when you connect your device to the PC while in boot and it doesn't read your sdcard, then you will have to do the method posted above which is using a card reader and moving the pd15img.zip to your sdcard that way.

After the image is on your sdcard, boot into hboot and click fastboot. Then allow the update.

You do not hit fastboot. Once booting into hboot it automatically finds the file without you doing anything.

Are you sure you are in bootloader and not in hboot? And is it reading pd15img or is it just skipper ng over it?

Okay, so this is what I have tried to far: I have transferred the PD15IMG.zip file to the removable MicroSD card through my PC, put the card in the phone, and start up hboot. This didn't work, the hboot still looks the same as I described in the beginning, there are no new options or anything.
I downloaded the aforementioned .zip file from Cyanogenmod:
HTML:

Maybe I have downloaded the wrong file, in which case can someone redirect me to the right file please? Also, I am being told that I have to transfer the .zip file to the root of my SD card which is the internal memory, but I can't access that bit because my phone will not go past the "MyTouch 4G" screen.
If there is a way to access the root folder in any way other than through the phone, or plugging the phone into the PC (which I can't do because the computer won't read the phone because the phone won't turn on), can please someone walk me though the means of doing that?

Root of SdCard = the microSD card that u can remove you place it in there not within a folder...
Internal Memory = the phones memory unless you know what ur doing don't mess with those files...
