Hi. I were running a rooted stock rom with the newest radio and spl and ra recovery. I decided to try rom manager(i think thats what its called). I flashed the recovery, i believe it is called clockwork. When i rebooted my phone it just keeps rebooting at the htc logo. I cant enter recovery or anything. Is there a way out of this or can i just throw it in the dumpster?
Can you get into fastboot? Take the battery out and pop it back in. Then try powering on holding down back+power. You should get a screen with three Androids skateboarding. If you can get the port the information here. If you can and it just does the boot loop, do the battery again hitting the back button repeatedly, give that a few tries and see where it gets you.

Thanks for your reply but i cannot get into fastboot either. Ive tried holding every single key while booting xD. It just keeps doing the same thing. Reboot at the "HTC Magic" screen. I hangs for some seconds so ive also tried to see if i could grab it from adb but without success.

Did they take it back under the warranty? Did you mod your phone?
Do you get the blue led & black screen when pressing trackball + power at boot?
I get blue led but no fastboot or recovery

So that means your device isn't fully bricked - your hardware seems to be working, and you should be able to restore the device using JTAG (search the forums). Though I managed to restore mine by resetting some stuff with draining battery and repeatedly trying again. I'd recommend you to try too.
I don't know what I did when I was trying to install the orginal rom but, now my phone just shows the mytouch 4g picture, then it goes black and the same picture appears again, while the phone is vibrating. I am able to get into hboot but none of the options work. I upgraded the firmware with clockwork and unrooted the device. Is there a way to unbrick, or is the device just a brick?
Any help I would be thankful toward,
Luke
This may seem trivial, but it was not mentioned and therefore I am asking. Can you get into recovery?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
No I can't get into recovery its locks up and stays on t mobile mytouch 4g screen. That is after i select recovery.
Good news is its not bricked. You're just hitting a snag on boot. Have you tried fastboot or hboot?
RIP Cotton Eye Jim
When I try the fast boot method it brings up bootloader i selct it and it takes me back to the main screen, at that point I try recovery again and the device show t-mobile mytouch 4g for a second then goes black and goes back to the screen and vibrates and repeats the same thing over and over.

You don't choose bootloader in fastboot. All commands need to be run from your machine.

It does not even show the device in adb. I have install the driver for hboot usb plug, but maybe I got the wrong driver. Do you have a link to download that so I can try to reinstall driver, or is the unit bricked? Or how do I fastboot with the unit not loading to android, but its on hboot screen with usb cable attached. Is there a way to do that?
Press and hold the back button while booting to get into fastboot mode. Then download the clockworkmod recovery img and flash it through fastboot. You can find more detailed instructions in the thread where you download clockworkmod. This will enable you to enter recovery and flash a new rom.
When I followed those steps, fastboot in red came up and it gave me choice of bootloader reboot reboot bootloader and powerdown, it does not load, I have tried the bootloader, it goes to the main screen.
Was being dumb needed to hit restart it boots, thank you I will be reading on clockworks. I a noob as you can tell.
I reinstalled clockworks but now I cant get the hboot up by holding the volume down and power key. Any suggestions?
Volume down+power does nothing?
RIP Cotton Eye Jim
Got it working just wasnt holding it long enough I need to be more patience lol
Lol, I had the same problem the mt4g when I first got it. Very different from the mt3g. For future reference, as long as you get fastboot to come up, or at least get adb to recognize the phone, its not bricked. I actually bricked a mt3g 1.2, and when they're dead they're DEAD. Nothing works except an led notification.

I'm glad you got help but this is the wrong section to be asking questions. Go to the Q&A next time.

Please post questions in Q&A section.
I don't know if the phone is bricked, i sure hope not.
I had cm7 final running just fine. I was installing a kernel from clockwork recovery, and i followed the instructions. It installed, i told it to reboot the phone, it came to the cm7 blue booting screen. it kept repeating that for over 20 minutes. at that point i pulled the battery and replaced it. then i think it was stuck at the tmobile splash screen for a while. i was able to reboot and get to recovery mode again, i wiped cache and tried to install the kernel again, this time got an error. now it went to tmo splash screen and froze there for a while. after another battery pull, nothing will display on the screen and i cannot access recovery mode (i try by holding volume down, then holding power button). the ONLY thing that does happen is that the lcd backlight will stay on until i pull the battery. i plugged into pc without the battery, lcd lights up, but its not recognized by windows or adb.
I'd be grateful for any possible help or ideas, thanks in advance.
Could you give more info on Rom recovery kernel you were attempting etc?

Can you boot into the bootloader? Which one is installed? How can we help if we have no idea what's installed on your phone? There could be hope if you can boot into the bootloader and have the engineering SPL installed.
Also, what kernel were you trying to install?

He did? I only saw that he could not boot into recovery. I was thinking if his recovery is screwed up, he could still use fastboot to flash a new recovery and then be able to wipe and start over. If he can't get into the bootloader or recovery, then yeah, it's the dreaded B word.
I'd really like to know what kernel he was trying to flash.

I was flashing the #107 kernel from this thread:
[Kernel]Gingerbread[2.6.32.36]MaxOC~1.84GHz,Smartass/UV/BFS/BFQ/SLQB-Faux123[Apr-10]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957267
I'm not sure if there's a different procedure to get into hboot as opposed to recovery. I've only had the mytouch 4g for about a week (always had Nexus one before). After pulling and replacing the battery, i hold volume down, then hold power button. Is that how to get into recovery and/or hboot, or is there another procedure I can try?
I used the visionary app to obtain root, install rom manager, then installed clockword mod recovery and cm7 through that. Working fine for a few days until i decided to flash the kernel to get better battery life....

Unfortunatly its the same procedure, hold volume down and power on. So if when u do that nothing happens and adb doesn't work your phone is done.

A little more info, maybe good news...i've been trying to get it to do anything for the last few hours. i had the battery out for a while. When i would plug it into AC charger or my pc with no battery, nothing would happen. however now i put in the battery, plugged it into the pc, and NOW the orange charging light is on like its charging...i haven't tried to turn it on or anything yet though.

I'm not sure what the exact status of your phone is, but usually flashing a kernel does not brick the phone. If anything the ROM won't run right or there will be other problems, but never do they prevent the phone from booting into recovery (the recovery partition uses a completely different kernel). When you try turning it on again, don't bother trying to let it boot normally. Hold down power and volume down and see if you can get into recovery. Then run all three wipe options and flash a new ROM.

It's happened to me before where I thought I had completely bricked the phone. It crashed in CM7 RC2 when I tried to mess with the DSP settings. After that, I went through the same situation as you. I got tired of it, left it charging overnight while it was stuck on the splash screen. The next morning, it was on like nothing happened. I'm thinking it just needed to sort itself out. Not really a fix or suggestion, but at least an indication that there is hope.
Nah, its dead man. Not on its entirety but virtually. I know that JTAG could be an option albeit, im not sure.
I can assure you though that there must be something extra u must have missed that caused this, did you play with radio's or SPL's? Cause that is how i bricked a magic lol
blah
mine bricked on restoring. got to the point of not responding to anything - power button and even charge indicator no longer worked.
sorry to hear OP. it's bricked.

By saying that you used the visionary app to obtain root, is that all you did? Then installed rom manager and etc etc etc? Did you go through the full root method to get S=OFF as well?
Well previous to using visionary...i was trying another method to root using the terminal, but it wasn't working, so then i found visionary and used that. I never interacted with the phone using adb, if it matters. If i never really had s=off, could this be why this whole thing happened?

Not really, if you were able to run a custom ROM with no problems before then you were rooted properly. Somwhere after you must have gone wrong, not sure where

Ok so my phone booted up into the bootloader the other day and the the volume keys and power keys arent working. I cant get adb to connect to it either. When the battery is real low and i boot into hboot it gives me a low battery voltage warning and says press power to continue and it actually works.. but when im at the hboot or fastboot screens nothing works. Anyone know of a solution? Thanks

Is your bootloader s-off or s-on? If it's s-off try putting an ruu as a pc10img.zip on your sdcard and flashing it through bootloader. You'll have to reroot and possibly get s-off again so use a 2.2 ruu
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
could it be that somehow your trackpad is stuck?
I am s-off sorry i didnt mention that. I flashed a pc10img and everything worked but when i rebooted it it still loads to the bootloader and the keys dont work. Im thinking it maybe the trackpad is stuck but how would i be able to check that?
If you are rooted you most likely have clockworkmod recovery? Have you tried to boot into there and flash a clean rom?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
i cant boot into anything else but the bootloader and when in there the buttons arent working. Is there another way to boot into recovery?
You need adb. I'm not saying it will work but its worth a shot. If you don't know adb the is a guide in the dev section.
If you can get adb connected to your device after you adb shell into phone you can run "adb reboot recovery". Hopefully that works, but if not I'm at a loss

Try removing your SD card, then see if you can get to recovery through the BL.
I cant get adb to connect.. after i enter "adb devices" it lists nothing. I can get my hd2 to connect not problem. I tryed PDAnet to see if it was a prob with the driver but at the end it says failed to handshake with device. i also have htc sync installed. I tried to boot it with the sd card removed but to no avail, same thing happens. I think its wierd that i was able to flash an RUU and the power button worked to select stuff but once its back in the regular bootloader screen nothing responds.
Update!! Ok so i flashed the RUU found at this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912399&page=4. I figured it would be safer because i was already rooted and had s-off. This rom flashed fine and then when i plugged my phone in while it was off it turned on and booted to clockwork recovery. once i booted it up though it turns out my track pad wont select anything. It will move around the screen but when you click it does nothing.

Hi guys, need some help deperately please.
I've got an LG G2 D802 that has received the OTA update to 4.4 and is running fine.
I've since rooted it and i was looking at installing a custom recovery before flashing a new Rom......
I have tried to use Flashify after downloading TWRP recovery through Flashify but after rebooting it comes up with the following in the top left of a black screen;
Error: Boot Certification Verify
810 - secure booting error
860 - cause: boot certification verify
Then the screen goes off, ive left the phone and tried to reboot by just holding down the power button for 10 seconds but on boot i just get the same message then it dissapears and i get a black screen again
Any help or pointers would be great - thanks in advance

If you've just flashed the KDZ, do a factory reset instead of just booting to android. (hold volume down + power until you see the lg logo, release for a moment and continue holding the 2 buttons untill the factory reset appears). If you're on the new base with knock on and the ioroot issues the reboot to recovery command it has the same effect, your data is cleared. You have to retry the rooting process (the second time it should work).

I've finally sorted it out now - on the first flash of the kdz my phone pretty much remained the same, it bought it back to life and it wasnt reset at all and i couldnt root it.
On the second flash of the kdz my phone went through the whole set up process again (enter google account, language etc) and i managed to root easily after that.
It's put me off installing a custom recovery now though Ive expereince with the htc one x, dell streak, zte blade ...... all fine but with this im worried about getting a recovery installed incase i mess up again!
I know there is TWRP recovery and Philz recovery available but using flashify was what got me into this mess - do you suggest i use the usb cable and connect to my pc and install a recovery that way?
Side note - ive downloaded TWRP and Phils recoveries but none of them have a Windows Batch File to run hence me using Flashify - ive put the question on both of those threads aswell - where is the BAT command to run?
Thanks for your help
