So I was "flashing" a new ROM via ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.07 earlier on my phone, and the battery was near dead, so I decide to plug it in. I didn't bother to think/realize it was plugged into the USB port on my computer, and as I did so, the installation stopped and the phone turned off. I turned it back on, to find the "MyTouch 3G" green splash screen either stuck and the phone eventually turns off, or it loops, and the phone keeps rebooting. I've tried flashing flashing the ROM again and some different ROMS I believe, with no luck. Yes I can get to the recovery screen and I can get to hboot/fastboot. Any direct troubleshooting would be very much appreciated. I don't really care what ROM I have on my phone at the moment, I just need something that works. My old blackberry is missing several keys and the rest barely work, so it would be nice having this one back up and running I've searched other threads and other forums with no luck so far. PS I don't have a Nandroid backup...thought I did, guess not though.

Then search 1.33.0013 or 1.33.0013d and flash it via

p.s. Don't flash anything when battery at 30% or less
Most roms require the new radio and spl that came with the froyo update. You have the radio, but you need the 1.33.0013 or 1.33.0013d spl.

yeah I know they were blocked, but I figured out how to access via adb
so I got the proper recovery image on...and flashed CM6, however it's still looping on the MT3G splash screen

May be need special kernel for radio 2.22.28.25? What requirements for CM6?
Not sure, but it says I'm running 6.1 now. And I downgraded my radio to 2.22.23.02.

Let me explain to you the whole story. I obviously know im going to get flamed for this one. I will give you the short short version
I had a rooted MT3G fender with this Rom installed
http:/forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669911
It worked all good until i started messing with stuff. I wanted this rom installed
http:/forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673394
Since it said 32a and MT3G fender is 32a i assumed that it will install and no problems. So i used the gold card to change radio and spl to the 3.22 series. only to find out that they dont work for my phone. based on this post

[THUNK AND FIXED] Rooting Mytouch Fender LE 32a/ Mytouch 1.2 DONT!!
http:/forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622530
So now im thinking great i didnt catch that so let me just move back to where i was before. using the last section of that previous thread to install the stock radio and spl. i have done this already and know it works. so i install the stock radio and spl and the custom recovery. Boot up into recovery and restore nandroid. everything is going ok utill.....it locks up in a boot loop. i then boot back up into recovery and erase data. after that i tryed another nandroid restore and to my wonderful surprise i now lost the ability to mount the sdcard. i restarted and tryed many different cards and all failed. I then boot up into hboot restore with the goldcard and it then locks up at system.
Great now im looking for something to fix this whole mess. after that i try to reinstall the original spl and radio. I then have an error "signature verify failed." Now im thinking WTF!!!!!
I then find a thread about the RUU and how to turn off "S-on" if i install this official HTC app. However come to find out its the asia version. WONDERFUL FOR ME!!! I then found the Official T-mobile MT3G RUU, installed it and now i have a fastboot installed with a memchip with a red circle around it, not the 3 skate droids, and cant boot into HBOOT ,with the volume down button. All that i see is "RUU USB." I have adb but now get the error "remote not allowed." it used to be "signature verify failed." i have no recovery, no HBOOT, just fast boot with RUU USB.
How to i fix this mess up and get back to this?

I actually am stuck on the same screen with the same phone. I hope someone has been able to get this fixed
Damn, not trying to be mean, but you screwed up a lot.
I have the same version device as you, and I upgraded my radio/SPL. and did a lot of stuff, i semi-bricked it, but i got it working again. I suggest you re-root your whole entire phone. including flashing all the radios, spl,recovery, and etc.
Try following this theunlockr[DOT]com/2010/03/11/how-to-root-the-mytouch-1-2-and-fender-mytouch/
The problem is that the phone is stuck in a bit of an interesting state. You can't flash from an RUU at this point because the engineering SPL used to root the phone is version 2.53.x, while the RUU's ROM is 2.10.x. You also cannot flash any images to the phone because the SPL is locked (S-ON). So the only way to fix the phone at this point would be to somehow get an HTC-signed 2.53+ ROM for the SAPP31000 (mytouch 3g 1.2/fender) or find a way to unlock the SPL. I had a nice chat with some of the Modaco guys and we went through a lot of options with none of them working. The phone's basically in a bit of a chicken vs. egg state. So personally, I will be building a serial cable to manually unlock the SPL so that I can flash images back on manually.
So, while I wish it was as easy as just re-flashing the phone, you can't do that with a locked SPL and no HBOOT mode available. Onward to a serial/TTL cable advendure!
Once I get the parts in to build it, I'll follow up here with my results

I pretty much have a semi-bricked 1.2 Fender. It is rooted and I was running stokes
custom rom. Tried to flash Cyanogen 5.08 and failed. No matter what I do, The phone just WILL NOT boot into recovery leaving me with no way to install another rom. I can't wipe or anything...Is there any way to fix this? or is it completely bricked? It will boot to fastboot and to hboot and the computer recognizes it.

No. Since you were able to flash the wrong sappimg (congrats, by the way), I'm guessing it's working just fine. Follow the rooting tutorial at the unlockr.
ahhah ok ill try it again ill massage back with progress in a minute

WTF? What do you mean "died"?! Are you at least back to the stock radio and SPL? Does your phone boot into recovery (hold down home and press power) or into normal mode?
If you're back to stock radio and SPL you should now be able to start the tutorial once again and it shouldn't fail on flashing sappimg this time. At least I hope so
Repost your fastboot info.
ok i got the sappimg to work phone didnt boot tho going to continue tutorial

Okay, great! Now you should be running your stock SPL and radio (which means S-ON), but you can go into the modded recovery by holding down home and pressing power.
If you still have the 1.33.2010 SPL and 3.22.20 radio you need to flash the stock ones, otherwise no ROM will work!
As for a ROM, I really don't know which one would be best for you, but you can check out the ROM bible at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682243 - last section of the first post is for your phone - MT3G 1.2 / LE Fender.

Yes, if you have an engineering SPL, which you do not. You'll need to flash a stock ROM.
do not flash an eng spl. Our phones do not run on anything other then stock radio and spl. Also, even though it is a 32a board, only g1 /32b roms and recoveries work.
What happened to you makes no sense unless your leaving something out or tried to flash an ota Rom.
Take battery out, put it back in /hold home and power, should go into recovery. If not, I would say follow my guide in Sig to start over but you'll probably screw up on flashing the radio and spl.

lol Oops Didnt catch that. HEs right, you have the G1 radio going. Ours should be .12 at the end... I think lol. I havent had to mess with it for a while since Universal Androot works now. But again, you may want to start over if you know what your doing. Otherwise, time to go get a replacement because flashing the radio and spl, your probably going to brick it anyway.

Your radio/SPL are fine. As for your situation, did you root using the goldcard method? If you did, try doing it over and see if it'll let you into fastboot after loading the engineering sappimg.

Some roms take 10-15 min to boot up so you just gota have patience .
Also, any roms built with a Cyan kernel after 5.0.8 will work on our phones also.
IS the location working on that rom for you?
When it first cam eout I used it for months with no problems.. but then I tried to go back a few days ago and the weather/clock will not find me.
yeah with wifi it picks up my location for the weather just fine

but because the phone cant boot up into the OS adb doesnt see it as list of devices so i cant do the goldcard and start again.....
hmmmm i might throw this thing outta the window
Without a goldcard your not going to be able to go that route. If you've still got your Hero, you can use it to make the goldcard, or any Android powered device for that matter. Maybe just wait it out and see if it just starts working as before?
i have a successful goldcard.img from my Hero will take be ok to use for the Fender you thinks ?
damm-it just tried that and SAPPIMG gives an Incorrect Model ID - because im using the Hero goldcard
damm i dont know what else to try
does anyone have a Fender Goldcard img they would like to share with me - proberly wont work but you never know i might get lucky
cheers

You need a few things.

3. Time, patience
4. Luck
All of these are easy to find or get besides time, patience, and luck

As you have MT3G v1.2 / Fender - it is too hard to restore your phone after your faulty actions. You bricked your phone, when flashed inappropriate hboot and radio

That post seems to be talking about mismatched radio and spl. His match, but are the wrong ones. He should be able to flash a sappimg.zip to get an Eng spl and fix from there
Ironically, the thread you have suggested is the first thread I followed to configure my device for the "carz" latest custom rom.
Is there a way around the "unzipping hang" that happens during system partition portion of RUU_Sapphire_Rogers_WWE_3.05.631.7_R_release_signed_NoDriver flash? I have also tried the goldcard method with extracted rom.zip of the mentioned RUU rom with same result.

Yeah, but solution is same. Sure, he can start from step 2, cause he has combo without mismatch between hboot and radio already.
And yes, should flash 2.53.707.2 to get special combo with eng spl and then return to stock.

I was having problems rooting my Rogers HTC Magic+. I used this method and it worked like a charm to get root, Eng SPL. After that I was able to flash custom recovery and ROMS.
The ROM in my Signature works really well.
Flash the original "RRU", then root with androot.apk from market, install rommanager from market and flash recovery, reboot recovery and flash the ENG spl
