Mytouch 3G stuck and no recovery

i have looked and couldnt find a thread that matched my problem...i have a rooted mytouch 3G (32B) and i cannot get back into recovery. i am able to get into hboot and fastboot but thats it...and when i try to boot regularly the phone will either get stuck in a boot loop or if it does boot (which is rare) it will go to the android tutorial screen and ask for me to touch. at the tutorial screen there will be a whole bunch of error and force closes...before these problems i had used clockwork rec and tried to flash another recovery from rom manager but it would flash a new recovery...then the problems followed and i could no longer flash either clockwork or amon ra....please help if there is any

Post your fastboot info. If your not locked with a perfected SPL you should be able to permanently flash a custom recovery and then flash a new ROM.

I would just apply SAPPIMG.nbh, then use flashrec.apk from 1.5 to flash amon_ra. Then flash whatever you want.
Basically just follow this guide - http://theunlockr.com/2010/04/26/how-to-root-the-htc-mytouch-3g/

Pull the battery and reinstall, and while the phone is OFF, hold POWER + VOLUME DOWN until you get to the update/bootloader screen. Not sure what it's called. From there you can apply SAPPIMG.nbh from your sd card.
Obviously you'll have to use an adapter to copy the file directly to your SD card without the use of the phone itself.
That will put everything back to oem, then you can use flashrec.apk to install amon_ra and go on your merry way. Try it before you insist it won't work.

If he can't get the regular ROM loaded up he's not going to be able to use flashrec. You need to flash an engineering SPL using the goldcard method and go the old school route of flashing a custom recovey, then flash a new ROM. I'm guessing you rooted before using Androot. When I get to a computer I'll link a proper guide to help you out. You can't get to recovery either (holding home and pressing power)?

You load SAPPIMG.nbh from the bootloader screen - you don't need a ROM at all.
Applying SAPPIMG returns the phone to 100% oem and should allow him to boot up again.

Applying the stock sappimg will return his bootloader/radio back to stock, not the ROM. You have to run an RUU to get back to complete stock.

You're welcome, let me know how it goes. You're basically unrooting, going back to cupcake, and then re-rooting, but at this point I think that's going to be LESS effort than everything else you could try, lol.

It went well! Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure I follow you. Are you trying to root the phone, because your first line says you did already.
Try writing it in your own language and using a translator like Google Translator.

guess its clear !
i wrote: I did root
Phone still works
to flash the ROM I have to get into the fastboot menu.
after that it shows the listed problem

If your rooted u need a recovery. U have one? Boot to it and flash from there.
Sent from my HTC Magic SparksMod using XDA App

Yeah, you don't need fastboot to flash an actual ROM, you use a custom recovery. That's why I was confused.

Hello thanks so far.
I did it once one the N1 and it worked fine. But here it give me some headache.
Downloaded a Custom and a recovery ROM. Only one on the SD Card and try to install it.
The only way i know is hold VOL-DOWN and Power and from there start .
But this would be via fastboot ? and this show the error i posted.
Other option is, I have this ROM Manger as an App. Nice toy, found me the recovery or /and the custom ROM on the SD Card. After i try to install from there, it restart the phone goes up to the rogers screen and freeze their.
scratching my head.....

No Rom manager. Get amonra 1.7.0. (Custom recovery). Fastboot flash it. Will be instructions on his thread to fastboot flash it. Follow them. When done shut phone off. Boot into amonra home and power till recovery screen comes up. NANDROID BACKUP. Wipe everything in recovery. Partition sdcard the way u want it. Plug into computer. Hit USB toggle. Open sdcard on comp. Put Rom and gapps or whatever you're flashing. Close sdcard. Hit home to get out of USB toggle. Flash Rom and whatever. Reboot. Done. Keep us posted.

Hi all, first post here. I have rooted my N1 and flashed CM6 on it. Now I'm looking to root and flash a MyTouch Fender. I have one question that is really stumping me, and I have been all of over this forum. What is the differance between 32a and 32b? And if its on the phone, how would I find it? And do I have to flash a radio, too?
Ok, three questions.... lol
Still new at all this flashy stuff, but its great.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

On the unrevoked site under the EVO guide they link you to the download. There are plenty of guides on this forum so I am not going to do the work for you. This is why you should do the research before attempting to brick your 500 dollar phone.

If you can't get into the bootloader, you can't get into recovery which is where you need to flash the s-on tool. Try running the RUU in exe form from your computer. If it works, you will need to reflash recovery, flash the s-on tool, then run the RUU again.

Put these files in the root of your SD card.
Amon RA and S-on tool
When you get into Hboot it should find this PC36IMG.zip and ask to run it. Run it. This will install Amon RA recovery onto your phone.
Then turn the phone off and reboot holding vol-down and power. Select recovery.
In recovery select "flash zip from sd" then select unrevoked-forever-son.zip
At this point find someway to get Pc access to your sd card again. You can do this from Amon RA by selecting USB mount (i forget the exact wording, sorry).
Delete the PC36IMG.zip and put this one on there instead. Go back to Hboot and let the PC36IMG run.
You should now be running stock again. Unrooted.
This thread might be of some help as well.

That's the correct one. Just try running it again, and again, and again if you have to. If it still won't work, you can try another one, but try the newest one first. You can also try taking it to Sprint and just play dumb. They may replace it for you.

Also make sure you have the correct drivers. Install HTC Sync then uninstall it, then try again. After some research, it seems the screen you're seeing is from a bad RUU flash, so completing the RUU should solve your problems.

This is really sad, nothing worked for me. All above suggestions have been tried but nothing working.
I am not sure is it MS Windows issue, if yes, is there any Linux or MAC tool to allow me log in to my ROM and reset or copy from original one?

Furthermore more than ten times HTC Sync driver removed and re-installed.. nothing working properly..
I'm just wondering best way to re partitioning original ROM?
thanks for any help

Minor suggestion: try running the RUU as administrator by right clicking > Run As Addministrator.

Had the same problem. When you start to run the ruu are the ruu and your phone the same file. For example right before you start to run the ruu, what does that screen show

Jab2k, you might have a bad copy of the ruu. It locks you in ruu mode like that when you have an incomplete flash but once you get a good one it will be back to normal.
If redownloading the 3.70 ruu doesnt fix it you will need to flash it manually using fastboot to see where it is going wrong
