[Q] Myt4g in a bootloop when turned off or charger inserted.. - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi my myt4g keeps rebooting but wont turn completely on when it enters this boot loop.. I'm new to android so i did not try to flash or root the phone. I bought this phone through Craigslist so no telling what software has been on it before. (phone was fine when i bought it)
It seems like whenever i try to charge my phone it turns off and enters this bootloop. even when i try to turn the phone off manually and reboot the phone still enters this boot loop. i tried factory restoring the phone i tried formatting the sd card nothing seems to help. when i boot the phone in hboot it tries to load some type of images but non were found. every now and then it seems like if i press a few buttons randomly the phone turns on. any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like the phone might be rooted.. What does it say when it enters hboot? Does it show s=off?
Mytouch 4g-white
Permrooted s-off
Root Method-gfree
CWR-3.0.2.4
Rom-Royalginger v2.1
Kernel-Ckisgen~smartass~v1.2

S is on... i think i fixed it. i removed my sd card. then when the phone finally turned on i went into the settings and changed the option to automatically back up saved settings from google. i then restored the phone praying that it works. phone came on fine but i skipped all the extra crap and now im turning the phone on and off just fine. now i will have to see it it will work when i try to charge it. also if its the sd card.

Help, phone doesn't boot (pure stock, not rooted phone)

I'm having a strange problem today on my Desire Z.
First of all, my phone isn't rooted or modified in any way, it's pure stock.
I rebooted the phone this morning and for some reason it doesn't want to boot anymore. All was working well before.
After I turn it on, it's stuck on a white screen with skateboarding Android (see attached file). I waited, and waited (over 15 mins) but nothing happens.
Since I can't turn it off, I pulled the battery and restarted the phone. Same thing happens over and over.
I tryed holding volume down + power to boot into bootloader: it doesn't work either.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thx in advance.

[Q] Can someone ressurect my Desire z?

Hey there,
I have a Desire z that was completely stock, no mods, no roms, S-on and all that. One day it had a hissy fit because it was trying to update all my apps via GPRS (didn't have the playstore app yet) and I stopped it. From then on, the phone kept on locking up, freexing, hard rebooting and so on, so I reset it back to Factory and installed playstore first.
Well that was all fine for about a month when the phone suddenly turned itself off, then got stuck in a boot loop for about 30 reboots, then it would work fine, then it would boot loop again and so on. So I entered HBOOT, tried to do a reset from there, and the phone froze...
Now the only thing I can access on the phone is the HBOOT and FASTBOOT menu. I don't have ADB access, so I can't push anything onto it (tried all the drivers I can find, ADB will recognise phone in FASTBOOT but not HBOOT). I have tried the official HTC Gingerbread updater, to no avail (detects phone in fastboot, tries to reboot into hboot, then hangs. Booting phone in HBOOT+USB and running that reports the 120 error, Battery below 30%). I took the rom out of the temp file and put it on the SD card, rebooted the phone, and it starts top update via that, but hangs on the first step (Flashing the bootloader partition)
I have tried soo many things, made about 20 Gold Cards, no idea if any of them were correct or not. I tried running the official HTC update on an XP machine, which is known to not show the 30% battery error, but the drivers wouldn't install.
So, at this point, I have a phone that won;t boot past the HTC logo, Hangs when updating via anything, no root, S-ON, no ADB access, no recovery mods, NADA.
So.. over to you guys...

Phone Crashing after Samsung Logo

Hi guys,
I am having problems on my S7 Edge. The phone is stuck in a black screen and I tried restarting my phone by holding Volume Down + Power + Home for over a minute with no success. The phone is stock and rooted with TWRP and has been working fine for the last couple months. I tried plugging the power cable in and the battery screens shows up and I am able to restart my phone when the power is plugged in (battery over 80%). At this point it starts but after the Samsung logo appears it crashes again. I tried running the phone in safe mode but that did not work either. I am able to boot the phone into recovery mode and tried doing a Dalvik cache wipe. I get to the screen where Android is installing apps and after all apps got optimized it showed the home screen for about two seconds before crashing again.
After some more troubleshooting I took the sim card out and the phone is now running fine but whenever I put the sim card back in it crashes again. I tried turning airplane mode on and putting the sim card in which worked but once I turned airplane mode off it crashed again. My phone is Canadian version under Bell carrier. Just wondering if it is possible for a sim card to become corrupt and crash my phone like this? Are there any other areas I should check?
If anyone has some tips on what I can try it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Yes, it's possible for a SIM card, like anything else, to fail. Before messing with your factory software, I'd visit a carrier store and see if they'll let you try a different SIM.

Probably bricked LG G2 running SlimSaber

So basically this rom is awesome but it had only one problem. When I plugged my phone in the charger while it was turned off, it bootlooped until I restarted with the cable off. It was no big deal and nothing bad ever came out of it.
Yesterday my batter ran out while I was asleep and when I woke up it was already turned off. I, absentmindly, tried to turn it on, LG Logo, off again. Did it one more time, nothing happened, realized it's out of battery. Plugged in charger, try to turn it off/on, usual bootloop happens. Say ok and proceed with what I always did, phone gets past LG Logo, goes into SlimLP boot animation and for the first it has just stayed there. No restarts, just endless loading. Longest i Left it on to load was about 45 minutes. Never got back on.
Apart from that, I think that for some reason my recovery got uninstalled somehow, by itself, a few weeks ago. I only noticed this because before, when I wanted to get into recovery, I pressed the usual buttons and it went straight into TWRP. Now the same buttons take me to the "Factory reset screen". I know that everyone says to just go ahead and press power, but I am afraid, since I am not sure if TWRP is still functioning. This happened to me another time on the same phone, and when I confirmed the factory reset, it factory resetted.
My problem here is that I want to get my music and photos. I'm only able to enter that factory reset screen and download mode. Can I "flash" twrp safely from download mode? Should I use Flash Tool 2014 and Normal flash(which says it keeps the data) a stock g2 rom? Can I mount my phone to the computer in download mode to copy my files? I want the most risk-free approach.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, first If you can enter download mode I think you can flash kdz (Kitkat) file to stock using Flash Tool 2014. But I had this problem once and the keep data flashing didn't work (stucked at 50%), I ended up flashed it with other option (erased all data).
2. You can try the "Factory reset" nice and easy.
I think you can't see files on the device unless you enter Twrp.
It's wise to backup your phone on the computer montly or so, thank you.
I went ahead and nuked my download mode using the SRK tools. Then got access to fastboot, through which I booted to twrp and then I could move my files. All's fine, flashed my ROM again and it's going better than ever.

Device won't boot up.

Sooo as the title says, my phone wont boot up.
i have a Samsung Galaxy Core (prime version) and i tried to root it with kingroot (because i used Kingo Root and it was really buggy) and while i was rooting a message was saying that the phone might restart and sth like that.
So my phone did, and restarted at 47% of the root and from then my phone wont boot up. (the Samsung logo keeps loading, not frozen)
I tried simply restarting (power+down volume button), hard resetting via recovery mode, wiping cache, rebooted through recovery mode, pulling out the battery.
Nothing.
I have also tried to connect my phone to my computer, and it finds my phone but i can't check my phones files.
So what else can i do?
i am kinda new to android phones so yeah :/
