Hello, my HTC Glacier has been stuck in bootloop and the only thing I can access is the HBOOT.
I tried the following:
1. Unplugged the battery leave if for a minute or two, then plug it back in.
2. Unplugged the SD Card while rebooting.
3. Rebooting through HBOOT
These steps above didn't make a difference.
When I entered HBOOT I also received the following message:
SD Checking...
Loading... [PD15DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading... [PD15DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading... [PD15IMG.zip]
No image!
Loading... [PD15IMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading... [nv.img]
I had some instances where I was able to get out of bootloop, but when I tried to enter recovery mode by rebooting the phone then I get stuck in the bootloop again.
The bootloop often happens when:
1. Connecting my phone to a USB port (mac)
2. Connecting my phone to a car charger
Thank you so much for any assistance/help that you can provide.

It sounds like you may have the PD15IMG file on your SD card. If that is what you are trying to do, it may be a bad download. If not, delete it off of your SD Card or make a folder for it. And if it is not on there at all...well I don't know what to tell you on that.

Just now I unplugged the SD card and when I entered HBOOT, I no longer receive this message:
SD Checking...
Loading... [PD15DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading... [PD15DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading... [PD15IMG.zip]
No image!
Loading... [PD15IMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading... [nv.img]
But when I tried to enter the Recover or reboot it from HBOOT, I got stuck in the booloop again.

Download full stock PD15IMG.ZIP
Put on SD card
Reboot to bootloader
It'll ask you to update
Allow update
If everything is ok - you get the stock ROM back
If something isn't ok - your phone is dead
The procedure has been documented and explained multiple times, searching the forum with the right terms will help you find everything you need to either restore your phone or determine that it's done. Exactly the same thread with exactly the same question is currently on the first page of the forum.

also agree w/ jack.... read the dev forums... resource bible in dev forum
I truly believe a phone could never be bricked with all the awesome info in the dev forum.... first .... LEARN ADB! and use it to install the latest CW recovery on your phone... next boot into recovery... volume down plus power at the same time.... choose recovery..... when you get to recovery... should be orange... wipe everything... factory wipe... cache wipe... go to advanced wipe dalvik and battery stats... go back and look for mounts and then format everything... cache, data, sdcard, system.... then plug in your usb cable to your computer and copy whatever rom you would like... i prefer doing footballs 2.2.1... that way i can re-root... ***make sure the rom is "PD15IMG.IMG"... then unmount.... go back a few in recovery until you see power down... then power down... pull battery... replace battery..... power into bootloader ( volume down and power button at the same time ) then sit back and let it do its magic... when it asks you to update... select yes.... let it do its thing..... that's it..... no more bricked phone..... enjoy and re-root.... but seriously..... read all the info in the dev section.... lots of really good stuff!

The link to guide for solving bootlooping/freezing MT4G or determining its death (and unluckily, most of those WILL be terminal cases and the phone WILL be determined as dead beyond any repair), is now in MyTouch 4G Wiki, under "Troubleshooting". The link to (updated and sorted) Wiki is in my signature.

corrupt pd15img files?????????
Hello,
I am having a similar problem. I have an htc glacier (mt4g) and it is stuck on the reboot cycle. The phone will go to either fastboot or hboot but I cannot navigate with the volume up or down to choose any options. The phone goes to the bootloader screen and it will load the PD15IMG file and then asks if I want to update and I can press up volume to start the update. When it finishes it gives me the error main version is older. I tried with another file from a different source and it runs through the update and then says to press the power button to restart and then shuts off and opens back up to the boatloader screen. Is it the file that is the problem or something else all together.
On the bootloader screen it says:
glacier pvt ship s-on
hboot 0.89.006
microp 0429
radio 26.13.04.19_m
emmc-boot
jul 15 2011 16:45:17
also when doing the update the phone skips over #7 tp is that a problem? Please help if you have any knowledge of what seems to be the problem.

HELP! Stuck on Hboot

Ugh. I received a MT3g from a person on Ebay who said the phone was stuck in a loop. Thought I could easily fix it but this #@#! phone is drivin me crazy!
As soon as I turn the device on it goes straight to HBOOT with the following information:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT
<Back> Fastboot Mode
Hitting the "back" button does nothing, and therefore cant get into Fastboot. I have tried putting the original sappimg.nbh on there..and it starts updating everything with the bar on the top right corner. Everything says its successful, but when it reboots it goes straight back to the HBOOT. I also tried putting the sappimg.zip on there, and when updating I get a "Model ID Incorrect Update Failed" error. The sappimg.zip files that are on one of these threads is for rooting the MT3g right? I have the perfected SPL as u can see, but as of now I just want a working rom...dnt care if its stock. Like i said, loading sappimg.nbh seems to load everything, but goes right back to the 3 Anroids on skateboards.
Did you try installed the SDK onto your computer and running commands to maybe boot up a the RAv recovery image?
The maybe from there you can flash the phone.
Yea I already have the SDK...I should have stated I'm no Android noob..just a Mytouch one. But this baffles me. I cant access Fastboot because the "back" button does nothing, thus it cant connect to my computer. However I can flash images on it by placing the .nbh or sappimg.zip on them..but like i said, i get an error with the .zip and the .nbh seems to update fine but still brings me to the Hboot screen.

[Q] mytouch 4g stuck on splash/hboot screen

Hello all,
Been reading thru the forums but haven't yet come across something that I may be able to use.
Well, yesterday my phone started updating 12 programs... battery ran out, and it shut down. I got home, charged it and turned it on, everything was ok. I went to read a text message and boom it shut down on me.
Now, when I hit the power button, it goes and stays on the MyTouch 4G splash screen. Or I can go into the Hboot screen.
Factory reset doesn't do anything
Recovery doesn't do anything
Please let me know what I need to do to either rooting it/flashing a new rom, or recovering/flashing back the factory rom on the phone.
Thanks in advance!

Edit: Would like to add that I have not flashed anything to this phone.
When loading Bootloader, while checking the files this is what is displayed (for less than a second):

check clockwork and see if you're getting the recovery.log error.

Thanks for the input guys, much appreciated.
Like I had said earlier, since I have not rooted or flashed the phone, I went ahead and called T-mobile and got them to replace my phone!
Hint: Don't believe store employees, they're crackheads! There's a reason why T-mo phone customer service is ranked pretty high!
EDIT: They did send me to tech support, but because the phone won't even boot or respond to hardware reset, it was an easy process.

A problem like this is happening to my phone.
After my phone successfully used the PD15etc, it rebooted to the splash screen and never advanced even after leaving it like that overnight.
(this is after using this guide without getting any problems http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912)
And we have the same phone specs
think you bricked it, not sure though
yes i figured it out i posted this in the wrong section , and in Questions and Answers , i used my insurance and received my HTC Sensation today
You have to unzip the pd15img.zip using your computer. After unzipping, you have to move the pd15img.nbh file to the root of ur sd card. Then boot your fone into fast boot and it will read the .nbh file and ask if you want to run the update (although its really a downgrade)
Don't push the pd15.img zip through adb, manually copy it over. When you push it, not all of it is there.
If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

[Q] HTC myTouch 4G stuck at Parsing

Hello Everyone,
I need help.
A few days ago I noticed that the volume buttons don’t work. So I restarted my phone and I got the white HBOOT Screen with:
GLACIER PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.89.005
MICROP-0429
RADIO-26.11.04.03_M
eMMC-boot
Apr 14 2011,13:18:22
T-Mobile won’t help because I am out of warranty. The phone charges and turns ON. That's about it. Nothing else.
After doing some research I copied the PD15IMG.zip on my SD card and the phone recognized it. On the first screen I get:
SD Checking…
Loading ... [PD15DIAG.zip]
No Image!
Loading ... [PD15DIAG.nbh]
No Image or Wrong Image!
Loading ... [PD15IMG.zip]
with the blue bar at the top right loading
The next screen is “Checking .. (PD15IMG.zip)” with a gold bar at the top right. After this screen the phone gets stuck on this:
HBOOT
Parsing…(SD ZIP)
(1) BOOTLOADER
(2) BOOT
(3) RECOVERY
(4) SYSTEM
(5) SPLASH1
(6) USERDATA
(7) TP
(8) TP

(10) RADIO_CUST
Would defective volume buttons make my phone freeze like this or is the other way around?
What can I can do to fix my phone?
Thanks,
Does anybody have any advice?
I don't know ADB but would that be any help?
If both volume buttons are stuck, funny things may happen - because after the "checking", bootloader should ask you to apply or reject update, and you're supposed to react with VolDown / VolUp.
So the problem you're seeing might be one of these funny things. But it might not.
ADB has nothing to do with bootloader, it runs when the OS is up.
Thanks for the reply.
Does it look like I really have a defective volume button or is this just a software freeze?
Dedicated and simple software like bootloader wouldn't freeze without good reasons. Most likely - either it's because of your buttons, or because of your HW.

[Q] Mytouch 4g wont run any PD15IMG.zip

Hey guys, I know there may be a lot of answers to this problem, but I have looked everywhere and the links provided with the pd15img.zip files don't seem to work to restore my mytouch 4g. I have tried so many different things to try to get this phone to life. Whenever I turn it on, it goes all the way to the lock screen but when I unlock it it shows the mytouch logo and nothing else ..no icons nothing... or sometimes it just shows the phone signal and time on top but thats it....so definitely needs to be restored. I am quite knowledgeable in rooting and flashing roms etc and I have followed all directions... hold power and volume down with sd card inserted... (PD15IMG.zip file in root directory of sd card) when it searches for it and tries to load it..it says MAIN VERSION OLDER... I have tried several of the zip files in the link below
http://www.4shared.com/folder/xDsyJF52/_online.html
non of them seem to work....it just says main version older...does this main the main version on the phone...or the version on the sd card? Anyone that can help please?!?! I have another phone but I am trying to save this phone for my mother. Here are the details of the phone
