[Q] MyTouch 4g Problems - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay here is my whole story. I decided to root my MyTouch 4g yesterday. So I went ahead and went through with it. I was required to downgrade to Froyo since I was running Gingerbread. So I did all of that through adb. When all was done. I flashed the Virtuous Unity rom. When I started it up everything was fine. I was enjoying it for about 2 hours while I was playing with it and texting and chatting with my friends. Then when I was about to go to sleep it froze. So I did a battery pull and started it back up. That is when I noticed that it was staying on the Mytouch 4g screen. Then it went to Clockworkmod Recovery. I tried to restore but it keeps saying that it can't mount the system. I also tried to use bootloader and downloaded the PD15IMG.zip file and placed it on there. It would say 'No image or wrong image' Then it would go and say Fail-Pu for all of the images. I have tried absolutely EVERYTHING. Any advice please! I am desperate, my mom is going to kill me!

i think you bricked your device.. i will look more details and report later..

:'(((((((((( Omg this can't be. Is there anyway to restore the file that I backed up because it won't let me do it through Clockworkmod Recovery!

Wipe everything
Go to mount/format
turn on USB storage thing (connect to computer)
Download a different Rom to the computer an transfer it to The phone
Flash it and hopefully it works

I can't even get onto my phone. It is just the MyTouch 4G screen and then it goes to Cwm Recovery and that's it. =/

That's what I'm talking about from recovery you can connect you phone to the computer

does clockworkmod recovery give you errors about not being able to mount cache?
cause that sounds a LOT like my old phone, which ended up dead because of a fail eMMC chip.
which method of rooting did you use?

If I report my phone as stolen to T-Mobile would they give me a free replacement? I do have the (PHP) Premium Handset Protection Bundle!

That's quite a lot! O_O Should I just wait until christmas? I really don't want that to be my christmas gift though!!! I really hope there's a way I can unbrick this! >.<

No, there isn't. It's a HW defect, when eMMC fails - the phone is done.

I guess I will hopd out until christmas and get another phone even though I JUST got this one!

If you have insurance you can get a free warranty replacement. Just say you woke up and it wouldn't turn on.

I don't think it's completely free.. your just not paying for the value of the phone because you have insurance you pay $130 instead of $500.. I stand corrected..

No that's for Premium hardware replacement from water damage etc. If you call and just say it wont turn on anymore they might charge you shipping but that's it...I'm on my 3rd mt4g and it has bad chip AND screen (and this is the last before I have to get a different phone) I've never once had to pay for more than shipping except when I cracked the screen

Was any of your device sent in rooted and left that way or you unroot and sent in like that?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium

Well my mom is planning to take my phone to a local T-Mobile store tomorrow! I really don't think that it is a good idea since my phone is rooted and once it gets past the splash screen it will start up cwm recovery! So should I just brick the phone to the point where it doesn't turn on and just say it just turned off and wouldn't turn back on? Would that be the best way?

From what I hear, they don't care if a device is rooted, just make sure that the stock ROM is on there.

So I call them, they send me a replacement phone, I get it, send my broken phone back to them, they test to see if it is broken, it stays on the splash screen for 5 minutes until booting into Clockworkmod Recovery, then what will they do once they see that? Will they take it as broken? PLEASE ANSWER! =/

Help needed ASAP for broken epic

I need to take my phone back to sprint, seems there is a hardware problem with the phones charging circuit. it will not mount to the computer, it will sort of charge, but if you unplug the cord, it just thinks its still charging. if you turn it off, it either just stays off until you pull the battery or sometimes it just reboots itself. it will not charge when off etc.
I tried 3 different roms so I know its not the rom.
So odin is out. I have bonsai rom and clockwork mod on the phone. I don't think thats a good idea to take it to sprint like this. is there anyway to get it back to stock?
anyone help please?
Just to make sure, have you tried putting it in download mode? It doesn't necessarily need to mount to computer for odin to recognize it.

ugg, I got this clockwork v 3.0.0.5 and I tried to run an old update.zip figuring maybe i'd brick the phone or get it back to stock and it won't work with that version of clockwork. I don't know what the heck to do, i can't walik in with it like this.

yea, odin is a no go, thats the problem i tried odin on two different computers, you want to know how screwed up this thing in? sometimes it boots up and thinks its in car dock mode.
Try a different USB cable? If odin is just impossible, remove sd card, take a short piece of wire with bare ends, have phone powered on, and short whatever you find on the back, fry the board. Sad, but gotta take it out back and put a bullet in its head.
Really though, IF the Sprint employee even notices, chances are they won't say anything anyway. Never did for me.

how much does it cost for them to fix it? tried 2 different cables and i know they were working, i know its not the cable because, when i plug in the charger, it doesn't ring up usb debugging when that is selected and you only supposed to be able to deselect or select usb debugging when the cable is out, but I can toggle it on and off with the cable in or out.

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
since i'm rooted and they would be foolish not to notice i'm rooted and it seems there is no way for me to unroot or go to a stock rom, would it be better to just brick the thing? i hate to do that do to the fact that then i'm stuck without a phone. Plus what if I brick it and they find out it was rooted? can they do that?
If its truly bricked, no they can't. Them knowing its rooted isn't that big of a deal, they'd either attempt to revert it to an official build anyway, or they'll tell you they can't take it that way, as in bring it back stock.
I've taken in 2 Epics for hardware issues, one was screen, the other keyboard. Both were rooted, one was on stock build and the other on custom rom. They restored stock software to the custom rommed phone before they decided the screen was actually broken lol

While that would be the "smart" thing for a company to do, Sprint's official policy on rooting is that they will revert it to stock if they see that it's rooted during any repairs.

apparently the policy has changed, as after waiting an hour and a half, they came back and said its rejected because it was flashed and i lack common sense apparently when I mentioned that it doesn't say anything about that anywhere.
If u can put the phone in download mode the problems r the drivers on your pc should check that or try different pc.

Try taking it to an indirect dealer service center. Those people really don't care about things like that. I'm one of those people. I realy couldn't care. I just fix it and send it out.

Most Terrifying expierence!

So i was odin-ing back to stock when for some reason Odin stopped. I start freaking out cause what else am i gonna do. My wife hates that i play with my phone.
Back in the early days of vibrant i effed up a voodoo lagfix (was able to fix it), but it cost me $50 buck when i had to send the replacment phone back after fixing mine.
So (like a noob) i unplug my phone and leave it in download mode. Nothings working.
I turn the phone off (again LIKE A NOOB), and it give me this angry picture of a cell connected to a PC...
Lost my Sh*t!!!!
However, was able to get into download mode, retore stock, and avoid a sexless month.
So, who has a good OMGZ-BRICKED-MY-PONE-OH-WAIT-NO-I-DIDNT moment...
I'd be willing to bet 99% of people on this forum have had this go down and freaked out the first time. It's one of those things that's inevitable when messing with this stuff.
i feel ya bro. I once spent 3.5 hours trying to odin before it went thru. I was sick to my stomach. Thought my phone was done!!
I once used a broken USB cable that I broke earlier (but forgot). It made very VERY poor contact with the phone so it disconnected if the phone was touched.
I used that cable with ODIN. Needless to say, it disconnected MANY times and I kept thinking I'm done. Finally I remembered the cable is broken and then I TOOK IT AND HELD IT AS TIGHT AS POSSIBLE with the USB contact.
Scarriest hour of my life.
I pulled the USB early, just before Odin says completed, on a bootloader flash. Holy **** what a scary moment. It booted up fine though.

Haha I did this too outdated odin and bootloaders dont mix. I had to flash it at least 5 times to get it to take. Odin wouldnt recognize on the com after every bad flash unless I reboted. The last time I couldnt get back to download so I flashed it in the phone!pc screen with a different odin and it worked like a charm. Stomach was churning like it was trying to make butter lol.

First time I used ODIN my roomate accidentally unplugged my phone (cable was crazy loose)... wound up on the phone---!---PC screen and that was scary as crap. Took a little while, but I figured it out
Basically, unless you're in the realm of bootloaders, this phone is difficult enough to brick (which I'm very thankful for!)

The burning question in my mind is, do you mean the failed upload attempts?
...or the month your kick-banned from hanky panky... because of course you keep trying, and eventually you get there. waka waka waka
Tried to flash my phone while driving, I hit a road bump and next thing, I know ODIN stopped working and my phone had a bunch of garbage display on the screen.
C*0000000*** something like that.
used Jig back to download mode. But the remaining 30 minutes drive back to my desk was horrifying.
Been there, done that
You tried to flash your phone while driving??
I used Clockwork mod to flash back to a Rom I liked better with a nandroid backup and it just got into a bootloop. I kept trying, but the only thing I could get to work was to Odin back to a stable Eclair build I had on hand.
BUT it gave me a red FAIL and just stopped mid-way through. However, when I unplugged and started my phone it came up just fine. PHEW!
Hours of fiddling and my wife was also all like "What the heck are you doing??? Can't you leave well enough alone???"
No. Of course not.
First time I got a soft brick I was scared as **** but then I learned about Odin I was so happy

after flash to stock ,phone stop on vibrant screen and this
whoa, i have never seen that before. i'm sure the dev's here have.
try to hold down power to reboot/reset. if not, pull the battery, get back into d/l mode and ODIN again to be safe.
you might have missed a step or something during your ODIN flash. post your steps you did.
You clearly missed step 2. Which was to remove that pesky little tab. ;-)

i've had that screen before when i was messing with framework pngs and whatnot.
theres 2 solutions:
do the download mode method and get into it.
-that may be the download mode itself, so just connect to odin and see if your phone is seen as a downloadmode?
I had this awhile back. It scared me a little bit because I have to play around to get to download mode a few times so I can get back to odin.
i get this everytime my phone crashes on my revolution rom.... i startes getting it when i flashed the 2.2 froyo bootloader.

Yep . Same exact thing happened to me when running rom revolution and flashing back to a froyo bootloader.
I had this same thing the other day. check to make sure your cable going to your computer is good. I was holding vol-up and vol-dn and trying to get into download but it would bring up this screen instead. switch cables and see if that helps.
I had this awhile back with trigger my phone just stopped working and that screen appeared, i think it's a kernel crash i just held power down or pulled the battery and it was fine when it rebooted i haven't had it happen for a few months. Ya it scared the crap out of me ;-)

So I bricked my one to the point that it cannot mount, adb, side load and is stuck at the boot screen. Talked to Bell, and they said that they would give me a new one when they have more in stock by Friday. After using the one for a week, its getting really hard for me to use another device. Missing the feel, of it in the hands, the sexy build, amazing speaker sound, the gorgeous display, Zoe and blink feed. It feels weird using my nexus 4 now.

Not trying to be a ****, but you getting a new phone because you bricked yours is stealing. The warranty does not cover you flashing unsupported software, so by getting a replacement for a non-defective device, you're stealing from HTC.
Just so you know.

Not stealing from HTC, but from Bell. And bell can suck a big one.
Well, they don't know the state of the phone yet, so they can say no on Friday. I haven't stolen it yet.

I really hate people that do that. If you break your device man up and try to fix it, which I'm sure it could have been fixed with a little effort. People like you is why insurance is so high and with crazy deductibles.

Fastboot flash the boot.img of whatever rom you're flashing. Odds are, you didn't brick it. Wipe everything first. Flash the rom. Flash the boot.img via Fastboot.

For the record this Device tends to have a lengthy boot up time on HTC screen ....especially on backups and fresh Rom installs ...a lot of people have been getting this mistaken for bricking ... When it's not it's just time ...I'd almost laugh if he isnt letting it sit long enuff to boot up.

K. I have managed to sideload 3 different roms, fast boot, a db push etc. Still doesn't get past the HTC screen. Mounted my USB through otg and did a nandroid restore of Bell's nandroid backup posted by some one. Bell has not released the ruu yet, other carrier's ruu doesn't work. o yeah, flashed stock ROM too. Left the phone on the HTC boot screen for hours, and it doesn't go past boot screen.
Any other suggestions?
BTW, I own 3 other nexus devices that are all rooted, and have been soft bricked numerous times and were easily brought back to stock. My first HTC device with no carrier ruu.

Right...well, mine is gone since 04/13...and I still didn't receive my new phone.
The phone company will decide whether they want to replace it and I've never had any problems with warranty replacements due to custom software. The phone isn't broke and HTC will simply use the parts or re flash it.
All the hysteria over rooting and custom roms breaking warranty is complete nonsesnse
If you burn out your processor over clicking it that's different of course but he hasn't.
Sheesh give the guy a break.
A phone that soft bricks or boot loops as easily as the one should never of been rootable in the first place.
