Ok after reading that I can go back to default RUU. I used the panache RUU, then tried visionary, didn't work.
Then I tried gingerbreak and it gave me error telling me to manualy reboot to check if SU is there. I rebooted removing battery..... And vola... super user was installed.I got rooted. Just installed Rom manager to flash recovery and all is fine.

Have you flashed any roms?

Don't want to use custom as I'm very happy with stock . But as clockwork is installed, it should be fine. Using adfree, market access. Both needed root.

Could you please point me to the HTC Panache RUU file... I've searched all over, but cant seem to find it... My girls MT4G was stock, and got the TMO Gingerbread OTA. It soft bricked her phone (I can go into bootloader, fastboot, & when i attempt to power on, I get as far as the MyTouch 4G splash screen). Since it didn't have a custom recovery & was S-On, I'm pretty much stuck. I figure if at least this flashes, root, or no root, the phone will be functional again.. Please help...

So you are saying she had a stock unrooted MT4G, and the OTA bricked her phone? Strange.

The RUU files for Mobilicity and Videotron are linked there. You might need a Gold Card to install, since the CID is different.
But overall, if the OTA bricked her S-ON device, I wonder if she just has the bad eMMC... and she was unlucky enough to discover that upon receiving an OTA.
The Dropbox link for Panache RUU doesn't work anymore. I've been looking for it but didn't find any.
How about the FileFactory link for the Mobilicity RUU?

When I worked for Sprint's Tech Support department, most calls I got when the Gingerbread update rolled out to the HTC Evo 4G, were regarding this. It happens.

Greetings,
I have purchased a MyTouch 4G from The States that was on T-Mobile and I have intentions on using it here (Canada) with Mobilicity, which is also on HSPA 900/1700/2100. I intend to flash either a stock Panache rom (which is the Canadian version without the T-Mobile stuff), RoyalPanache or I might go with RoyalGinger or something of that nature. I came across this in the Ultimate Rooting Guide:
[...]It will set up Super CID on your device allowing you to flash any carriers rom (not just tmobile). Giving you more freedom with your choice of software. The software still needs to be device specific to the glacier for compatability reasons though. Like vodafone glacier roms etc.

I just wanted to check that I understood correctly. Am I correct in my understanding that I would need to do ultimate root in order to set Super CID so I can flash any of the (non T-mobile) roms I mentioned? Or to put it another way; is the ultimate root my only option? I only ask because I'm quite nervous about rooting and guides such as this seemed to be more friendly...
Thank you!
I am trying to find any information on flashing the Panache Canadian ROM to US HTC Glacier that has no recovery and is not rooted. I can't find an RUU.exe anywhere. I don't understand why nobody has responded to all the Mytouch 4G questions! ALiens abducted them. I've been looking for hours.
You need a goldcard to attempt it, and you can as well just try instead of waiting for answers - in the worst case, it'll fail and won't flash.

Way to speak for thousands of people. And what a nice response as well...douche.
If you already have S-OFF you can flash Panache-based custom ROMs just fine.
If you want to flash the completely stock Panache RUU or PD15IMG.zip, and you have S-OFF, then you may need SuperCID or a gold card.
The RUU files are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216076
If you flash a RUU after rooting by root.sh, you'll revert to S-ON in the bootloader. This is not great with a Gingerbread RUU, because then you will have to go through a more complicated downgrade procedure if you ever want to re-root.
If you use the gfree "ultimate root" S-OFF method, then you will get to keep your S-OFF after flashing any RUU. If you have a ROM without root but you're still S-OFF, then you can use one of the files here to install ClockwordMod recovery and get a simpler route back to root:

ok so i unrooted my phone so the s-on and i was using the stock 2.2.1. i decided to give the new leaked or whatever u wanna call it gingerbread 2.3.4 found here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174344
now i cant flash back to the stock 2.2.1. everytime i go to hboot and use the PD15IMG.img file and now it says older version, update failed. so now i dont know how to get back to the stock 2.2.1. if someone can help me that would be great. thanks
Download the new panache ruu, install it, then after that's done use the 2.2.1 Img. In bootloader, then re root. That's what I had to do. Now that's if you are still s-off like I was. If you need or want detailed step by step pm me and id be glad to hop on the computer and guide you through it.

lmao true i cant get it to work either.. this is crap lol i would have never flashed that leaked gingerbread rom if i would have known that it was gonna be a ***** to flash back to the stock 2.2.1. i flashed it with the s-on i just went to the bootloader and let it pick up the update then i hit yes and now i cant flash it back to the stock build. oh well i guess we just gotta wait. i just got my sensation 4g so its whatever. i just gave my gf the mytouch 4g.
this sucks hopefully someone can figure out how to go back to the stock 2.2.1 rom from this stupid gingerbread leak. it messed up my phone pretty much cause now im stuck with it and i cant get it back and visionary wont even temp root my phone or anything. i hate this gingerbread leak rom. the phone has too many data issues. so if someone can figure out how to get it back to stock please let me know asap. i have s-on and im not rooted.

That's nice of you but you don't have to offer anything on return. There's plenty of us that will help you out with no needed incentives.
But to answer your question, can you still get into your bootloader? Take battery off and put it back in. Then hold down Volume Down+Power button. If so, then all isn't lost. You can try to use the stock PD15IMG.zip for the Panache to put it back to stock.

Idk how to do that. I shouldn't of messed with it now the phone is useless. Cause these asians asking for 80$ at mall but its to much
The problem here is that the op tried rooting the panache the same way they rooted theirs friends mytouch 4g. Problem with this is that the panache come with gingerbread already. So they will have to downgrade.
I figured these steps will downgrade their panache with the stock US 2.2.
febycv said:
To make the process very simple, try this method.
Just follow this steps for an error free downgrade.
1. Download the rom here.
2. Rename it to PD15IMG.zip
2. Place it on the root of your sd card.
3. Switch On your phone while holding the Power button & the down volume button.
4. The hboot menu will update your phone (do according to the hboot instructions).
The original bootloader is 0.86.0000
Now reboot & enjoy your update......This is the original T-mobile 2.2.1 version....so no worries.....

Those steps wont work. You need the instructions on the G2 section. I'm on my phone so I can't link,but its in there. You meed to downgrade back to froyo. ADB is also required. So hopefully you know how to do that.

If you are using the Panache, you should be doing this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16858971&postcount=98
It sounds to me like you need a gold card to downgrade your panache to the old android software. Too bad in order to make a gold card you need access to the panache to push the PD15IMG.zip into the card... You can always ask around to see if anyone in your area has a gold card for the panache u can borrow in order to fix your phone.
She is doing this guide. Actually, I've temp-rooted her phone and "updated" the MISC partition for downgrade, but she didn't have a card reader ready for making a goldcard, and the next day she already managed to reboot her phone and get stuck. So the only thing she needs is a goldcard.
The problem currently is getting CID out of this phone, I'm not sure stock bootloader shows it, and it's required for goldcard. If anyone knows Panache's CID - please share. If not - Panache RUU will be required to return to stock, but there is not a single link on the net now. So if anyone has it - please share, too.
Make a gold card for her using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970157 ? If you have the panache just insert a 1 gig card into the phone and enable disc mode.
1) Format it first
2) Click MMC2 and click get CID
3) Click on the website on the lower part and paste the CID number onto the form
4) go to email download image
5) Load the image and patch it and you'll have a semi ready gold card.
6) Put the phone back in charge/debug mode and push the PD15img.zip file through and it should revert it to mytouch4g stock.
Ps. I just rooted my panache two days ago and Im successfully running VU rom.
The problem with this guide is that it doesn't explicitly say that the phone needs to be fully booted into Android and with USB debugging enabled - but it needs to be. So if the phone doesn't boot, this guide is worthless. See the method this guide is referring to for getting CID out of the phone, and you'll understand.
In any case, the problem is fixed (or actually, there was no problem), the phone is booting. Hopefully, everything will remain ok.
Yea. The last time I gtalked her she was able to boot into the device. Also she did tell me when trying to flash the stock 2.2 unrooted rom from hboot
She did mention something about CID. Hope she can figure out. I don't use adb because I can't get it to ever work on none of the pc's I use so I don't know adb yet. So I won't be able to help her in that part.

Okay so i might be dumb ( jk haha) but ive been searching everywhere and cant really find the right answer to my question i was hoping some one can explain it to me better than what ive been reading...
I have s=off and running MIUI rom but i need to convert back to my stock radio, rom, s=on and all the good stuff, due to a warrenty replacement on my phone.
I downloaded the PD15IMG.ZIP file and when to bootloader and it loaded fine and was working...until... it did like a mini restart and loaded the zip again and at the end it said UPDATE FAILED...press power to restart. but i noticed my s=on after that mini restart.
My question is how do i fix the update failed issue. why is it failing?
It depends on what method of rooting you used. Did you use ./gfree? There is a post somewhere on XDA on regaining S-ON and stock Froyo (or Gingerbread?): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858996 go to "Procedure to revert"
im pretty sure if i remember correctly i used visionary+.
from what ive read. can i just flash the 2.2.1 radio and then flash the pd15img file?
Not sure on that one. Try googling, or wait for a real answer. Sorry I couldn't help as much =\
No problem thanks for trying

I assume the PD15IMG you were trying to flash was the stock 2.2.1. Which radio were you using when you tried to flash?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
It shouldn't matter which way he rooted it if he's just flashing the RUU unless he's on the OTA gingerbread which he isn't...
Try checking the md5 again for your pd15img.zip see if it matches.. if anything download it again... sounds like you have a bad download that doesn't complete all the updates. It restarts on the initial update because it updates your bootloader.
I finally got it to work. I just had a updated radio and I couldn't install the oringinal pd15 IMG file. I found a updated pd IMG file on xda and it worked like a charm!

You will need to revert down to 2.2.1 stock, then root. I did the same thing and found an issue with flashing roms. I do.t have the thread links with me right now but could help when I get home tonight.

This is no "issue". It's the intended behavior of HTCDev-unlocked bootloader. Kernel is to be flashed separately.
The only way to avoid it is to relock the bootloader and S-OFF with the old-fashioned downgrading method.
Ok so I used the wrong term when I said "issue". All I was getting at was s-off is the easier and preferred method.
