Help Mytouch 3g

I have a mytouch 3g original. I just rooted it with CM, the latest update. I tried flashing with Sirmez-p_s_blue-V4.0 (hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=569160 )(replace xx with tt) i moved zip file to sd card. unmounted phone. Turned off phone. Held Home and Power bringing me to the Android System Recovery menu..... Moved to apply any zip from sd...Clicked the zip file pressed home to confirm. Went through the installation.. pressed reboot system now...... Then it sticks on the Mytouch 3g green screen.
This was my whole process without missing a step. I found i can still get into my recovery menu. i wiped/factory reset. then went to reboot not success still green screen of death.
Tried to reboot last backup again no success.
Now i have a phone stuck on The mytouch 3g green screen of death
Can Anyone Help me Please???

If you really try to think about it... ooh boy my common senses are tingling!

you just wiped your phone. Install the rom again........
It looks like an outdated thread, I don't see your file anywhere but I'm assuming that you applied a 4.2.12.2 theme on your 4.2.15.1 rom. *Please tell me you didn't do that and wonder why your phone didn't work* I hope that theme file was for 4.2.15.1!

Alright thank you for the quick reply. further looking i did apply an older theme. does that mean my phone is bricked?

Alright i just reinstalled the Sappimg.nbh from the wiki CM page and this worked. sorry for being dumb i just freaked out when my phone wasnt booting. all is good now thank you Kawata

[Q] HTC EVO Stuck at white screen

So i went to this website called udromDOTcomfrom my phone and downloaded the Evo - UD 3.3.1 onto my phone. Then i went to ROM Manager and installed the ROM from the /downloads folder. I of course backed everything up and when it was installing it said installing, then i just happened to walk away at that moment so i didnt see if any errors came up or anything but then the phone restarted and now i am stuck at the HTC Evo 4G white screen. Any help on how to get past this screen. HELP ME PLEASE

Try this. If you made a backup, nandroid back to it. Go into your favorite file manager and move the Rom file to the root of your sd card. Then boot back into recovery and flash the Rom again.

from your description, you forgot to wipe. you are switching from sense to aosp, which is like switching from apples to oranges. you really need to wipe everything. second, i wouldn't use ud. they are just a modified cm7 (and for a long time, they denied it was anything close to cm7, enev though everyone and his brother could tell that they were the same. there was even proof in signatures of the files) so they are slower to update. i'd use the latest cm7 nightly, which is based on android 2.3.4, or the latest stable, which is based on 2.3.3.

And third, stop using Rom Manager to flash things with

I wiped everything and I used Cualkin (sp) Wipe. Now I can't even get into the bootloader to see my SD card. The screen (hboot) is just saying Fastboot , Recovery, Clear Storage, Simlock, HBoot USB. I go to recovery and all I get is the white HTC loading screen. I know it's not bricked. I don't know what to do next. :/

I did the same thing.. Let me see if I can find what I used to UN-BONE it..

[Q] CM7.1 RC1 problems

This morning I used Rom manager to update to the RC1 release on my mytouch
4g. All went well until it tried to reboot. Now it is stuck at MyTouch 4G startup screen and will not boot. If you depress the volume up key while turning it on all you get is 3 vibrations and the led starts flashing. Is there any recovery other than shopping for a new phone?

you hold the button down. to get into hBoot. Not up.

Duh! Thanks for the help - brain issuses I guess.

Mine did the same. I had to flash it manually through recovery, rather than having rom manager do the busy work.

Honestly Clockwork ROM Manager is a GUI interface for the recovery image. You should really get familiar with recovery image, and start using it. You'll have less bugs that way.

I tried a few times to install with rom manager (premium 4.3.x) and always got problems like progress bar stuck during installation and boot loop.
Manually from cwm recovery- no problem whatsoever. So IMO it is actually faster to backup, wipe whatever is needed and flash from recovery.
Rom manager also prone to failures during rom download whereas directly from web browser it's always OK.
But you can use RM to see what updates are available and it allows during backup to write your own name which is really good if you keep several backups... Sure, one can always manually change the backup name after boot- if you don't forget
That said, I think rom manager comes from the same dev/s of can and other stuff, so the least thing to do is support them by buying their premium version.

Is my Phone dead?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....
I just flashed the new radio (12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19).. and not my phone is stuck on the boot screen.. few seconds after it started, it just vibrates and stays there...
I tried the other radios like the stock panache radio, but still stuck on the boot screen.. same thing, few secs and it vibrates and just stays there...
I can get into HBoot and Recovery and thats all

Are you rooted? Do you have a custom Rom and recovery installed?

H,
Thought you might have some insight into this
The problem I have is it only shows the splash screen (stock splash is green "myTouch 4G" on white background) when
starting the phone.
Before this happened I had rooted the phone and updated the ROM and was putting some patches on the phone, Recovery shows
info as s-off.
To do a recovery I downloaded the stock ROM from a link here at XDA
(PD15IMG_Glacier_TMOUS_1.17.531.2_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155771_signed.zip I also did a hash check and it downloaded fine no corruption) renamed image with the exact name PD15IMG.ZIP (made sure it was not a
PD15IMG.ZIP.zip) and copied it into an empty 1 gig SD memory.
I re booted, did a factory reset x 2 after going to boot-loader, that did not help so I inserted the SD card with only
the PD15IMG.ZIP image in it and rebooted to recovery, but recovery does not ask me anything when it looks for the
PD15IMG.ZIP it says no image or wrong image (it also looks for PD15DIAG.ZIP, PD15IMG.nbh, and PD15IMG.zip same
message) and puts me back into recovery.
Any Ideas on what I should do ?????
Thanks

I saw someone post that with this radio u gotta flash it in hboot and then go into recovery and clear cache or else this is what happens..

You shouldnt be going into recovery to try and flash the pd15img.zip. You have to go into hboot and wait for it to prompt you to do it.

^ what he said , those pd15img's should only be flashed in hboot , if it doesnt work then flash a reliable rom in recovery like cyanogenmod , if it continues to give you a splash screen , you MIGHT , have a failed emmc , theres always a chance , it happened to my G2 , it just randomly pooped out on me.

Bricked - Boot Loop - About to Give Up

I have an EVO 4g that is stuck in an infinite boot loop. When it boots up it goes to the HTC EVO 4G white splash screen, goes black, and then goes back to the white splash screen over and over. I'm at my whit's end with this one. I have tried:
- RUUing it
-flashing different recoveries to it (Amonra and Smelkus)
If anyone has had a similar experience with theirs could they please point me in the right direction.
HBOOT 6.16.1002
Radio-2.15.00.07.28
S-OFF
It still loops if I go to recovery through the bootloader.
Thanks

Didn't mean to double post - I could not find my original post this morning for some reason.

You're S-OFF. You'll be fine.
Have you tried a different ROM other than a RUU? Like a recent stock or stock-ish ROM?
Also, now that you have a good recovery on there, use it to wipe data, cache, system, and boot. Don't erase all your pictures and music, but nuke everything else.
The symptoms you are describing happen to me all the time when I have not adequately wiped between flashing different ROMs . It could also be a bad download (always check md5's )
Sometimes flashing a ROM that is way too old for your radios or bootloader could cause this, but it sounds like you're pretty up to date.
Get a different ROM (such as Captain Throwback's 5.67 stock ROM) and try again.
After trying all the obvious stuff, then *maybe* we can talk about bad SD cards, corrupted partitions, whatever..

Go here and read everything,then format your sd card,make sure to back it up first,then install DT's a2sd and a stable rom,like Tommy's Classic or Miks 3.0.

Wait - you said it loops in recovery also?
That's not good.
Is this the same issue as the thread you started over in Q&A?
Now I'm not so sure there is an easy fix for this issue.
That radio is a little old and may be preventing your RUU from succeeding. Try updating?
After that, you might have to start looking at some kind of corrupt NV partition or something..

Something that helped me-
Recently recovered from an infinite boot loop myself- my condolences. Have you tried booting while the phone is plugged into the PC or an outlet?

I have hope
Im hoping to see that you are able to resolve this problem. Recently did a RUU update myself.
Turns out that everything updated minus the boot.
Which recieved a partition update. This was coming back from a bad kernel.
The phone is S-On sits on the 4 corner escalmations of death..
.. no further than the bootloader. which displays specs and ruu where the options should be.
Be interested to see if you find something. In the mean time Ill be hunting form info as well and if I find a possible resolve Ill try and throw it your way. :/ miss my evo...
Best of luck.

You can try one of my guides, it can help you get a recovery back. Just use the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
