[Q] Bootloop? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey guys just got this phone didnt have a rom got as far as CWM. CWM is installing rom but non of them boot "s=on???" can someone point me to what i should do next

Looks like you have an HTC-Dev-unlocked phone.
In this case, extract boot.img out of the ROM ZIP file and flash it manually using fastboot.

I can't imagine why you'd have a driver issue on an unreleased OS.

Wow! Windows 8? You kidding? Or, AFAIK win 8 still in beta version.Try with regular os like win 7.Whatever,you can download drivers via htc website.Go to this page & download drivers.
www.htc.com/US/support/t-mobile-mytouch-4g/downloads/

so I got ride of win8 now on xp got fb/adb working phone has cwm 5.8.1.0 tried different rom but non of them seem to go past android splash

Unzip the Rom that you installed. Put the boot.img from the Rom in your adb folder. Then hold down volume down / power button to start your phone in hboot. Choose FASTBOOT..... now plug in your phone with USB cable. Open a command prompt window and type
cd\ --> enter
cd adb --> enter
fastboot flash boot boot.img --> enter
fastboot-windows reboot--> enter
Now unplug your phone and wait, be patient it takes a couple minutes. You should be good to go.

When I try to extract the fastboot zip it errors me out. Downloading from my device. Not pc
Edit: guessing I'm suppose to use fastboot thru my pc? How does this work?
[G2/HTC Vision]
mine is sitting on htc screen with green progress bar which looks to be full.. is it okay to pull battery and try the update?
Fastboot
When I run fastboot-windows.exe on my computer I just get a quick flash of a black screen and then nothing.
Nevermind kinda went a different route and put the orginal rom on the root of the sdcard and named it to pc10img.zip and the booted into fastboot and then bootloader. It then flashed the zip, took a few min. Than put OTA on root of sd and named it to update.zip and entered into recovery and selected apply sdcard : update.zip. All went well. Actually is now booting for the first time havent even played with new system yet. Thanks for all the hard work that you devs do though. You make these phones bada$$.
Helpful Hint
If you have trouble getting it to "see" the device while in fastboot, just go to control panel, devices, install driver, and pick the one from sdk folder.
This was my first time using fastboot, so I had to do some digging around to figure it out.
Flashing via Fastboot (done within Windows, not the phone):
1.Download ROM and fastboot.zip from OP
2.Leave the ROM alone, and extract the contents of fastboot.zip into the same folder as the ROM
3.Start phone in fastboot mode; when phone is off, hold trackpad button and press power
4.The phone should go into the proper mode, now connect it to USB
5.Open up the command prompt in Windows (Start>run>cmd)
EDIT:6. I forgot to add this: you have to set the directory in cmd to the folder in which the ROM and fastboot files reside. The easiest way to do so is make a folder on the desktop itself, and type "cd desktop/[foldername]" into the command prompt, without the quotes.
7.Follow the last three bullets as listed in Paul's post
I already had the USB drivers for the phone when messing with adb. I don't know if that will affect fastboot; if it does, you'll need to boot the phone normally and connect via USB, download PdaNet onto your computer, and let it install the necessary drivers. Once done, then you may follow the remaining steps.
EDIT: See #6 for updated instructions; it is crucial to avoid the invalid command error.

LOL! I had sat around and realized even though I used abd and shell... I had no drivers in fastboot. also after flushing type "fastboot reboot" or pull battery to finish.

Can we flash on Mac or with an app.Is att's 2.2update avaliable more questions

I have steves 1.53 rom stored on my sd idk if theres a flashin app that can flash it from the sd on to the att Dell streak (non branded streak). Or away to flash on a mac and im having trouble with my windows xp flash!? Idk why, if someone can walk me through it. Im used to flashing HTC windows phones and even built my own version windows roms and also Iphone apps and I.OS ice built my own.... Come to think of it is there away to actually put a full fledged os on the streak or dual boot even to alow to get as much use out of this unit? Or even overclock it and how to over clock if you could walk me through it!?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
There are unix parameters for fastboot, that means that there must be a unix SDK that can be used in Mac OSX.
I have not seen any dual boot solutions.
And most of your questions are answered in this forum.
Try: Guide to Upgrading and Downgrading the Streak
Or the combination of:
NEW StreakMod Recovery
and
StreakDroid 1.6.0 ( aka Install-o-Rama ) Release Post
Yes you can do everything with a mac (i actually find it easier on a mac as you don't have to deal with drivers like you do on windows).
Go to developer.android.com and download the SDK for mac. Get the Fastboot file for mac (attached cuz i'm feeling nice) and drop that in your SDK/Tools folder.
Add the full path of the sdk/tools folder to your bash profile (search on google) so you can use the fastboot-mac, adb, etc commands from the tools folder in Terminal without being in that directory.
Once you got that, you have to know a couple terminal commands, basicly just how to navigate to the folder where you downloaded the streakmod recovery (google for "mac terminal commands cheat sheet" and you might find something useful.
Once you know how to navigate via terminal its as simple as flashing the StreakMod recovery. Put your device in bootloader mode (search or see the wiki) then in terminal it should be something along the lines of:
Code:
fastboot-mac -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
Then to get into the recovery youd reboot your device after the flash
Code:
fastboot-mac -i 0x413c reboot
hold the volume up and down buttons, select option 2 (flash update.pkg or whatever) and that'll take you into the StreakMod recovery [if you get the dell logo with an exclamation mark in a triangle and nothing is showing, press the power button]
From streakmod recovery select Flash update.zip from sd card then select "select .zip from sd card" and then use volume up/down to scroll up/down and camera button to select and voila you are flashing a rom with your mac :S
Also before you flash the rom you might want to do a full nandroid backup incase your update messes up you can do a full restore and be exactly at the point before you attempted to flash your device.
Nandroid is under the Advanced option in the streakmod recovery.
Good luck
OH p.s.
EVERYTHING you need to know is on the forums/wiki/etc.
Please do a search, i know you have to read through a bunch of crap but its worth it. you'll learn a ton
i enjoy how he called it an ATT non-branded dell streak.

install the application and then
then copy all the files in platform-tools to tools

when u do this commands u can use wthout ./
open terminal
and cd the directory of the installation folder ( /Android/android-sdk-mac_86/tools )

Is your device in fastboot mode? Power off, power on holding camera button, when you get the white screen tap on fastboot on top left, then plug in streak to mac.

ok, i was running 2.3.3 on my ns and finally got it unlocked then i decided to go for it and root it. my biggest mistake was not backing up anything after the unlock and then when i was rooting the phone it got stuck in the google screen
now i can get to the bootload screen but when i go to update from sd; it takes me there but i have nothing to back it up from
ive been trying to figure out a way to load a recovery backup to sd but the pc will not read the sd card anymore...
how can i fix this or am i stuck with an expensive paper weight?
please help
Question: Do you have clockworkmod on it?
(I figure you unocked and roote via adb/Fastboot - but if you can do it some other way and you did here they are]
Get ADB and Fastboot - figure out how the commands work (from Terminal/console/Command Prompt).
U need to put the files u want to flash (*.imgs in the same place as fastboot/ADB unless you're good a remembering your paths, if you have OS X simply drag and drop commands and files into terminal)
See if you can find a clockwork recovery image,
Download a stock rom - report back
Basically:
fastboot flash boot example.img
Fastboot flash recover example-recovery.img
that should work. I'll keep an eye on this thread.
After flashing CWR, go to mounts and storage and select mount USB storage, from there you can access your sdcard and copy files over.
The USB storage might take a minute or so to show up on your computer, if you're on windows go to my computer and click refresh until it shows up.

Here are the steps to get your phone back up and working:
1.Download this platform-tools.zip and extract it to your desktop
2.Connect your phone to the PC and enter bootloader mode
3.Press and hold Shift while right-clicking the folder you extracted 'platform-tools'
4.Click 'Open command window here' from the pop-up menu. cmd.exe window will open.
5.If the Bootloader is Unlocked continue to the next step. Type in the cmd.exe window 'Fastboot oem unlock' and follow the steps on the phone screen.
6.Type in the cmd.exe window 'fastboot boot cwr.img'.Your phone will restart and enter ClockWork recovery(CWR).
6.In CWR navigate with the volume keys and highlight 'mounts and storage' and select it by pressing the power button.
7.Then navigate down and select 'mount USB Storage'
8.On your PC, go to 'My computer' and press the refresh button until a 'removable disk' drive appears.
9.Double click on 'removable disk', You now have access to your SDcard on your phone!
10.Copy over a flashable .Zip Rom to the SDcard that you want to install on your phone, ie. Stock 2.3.4: Link(only for i9020T and i9023, dont install if you have i9020A), CM7: Link, etc.
11.Select 'unmount' in CWR when done copying files over. Then 'Go Back' to go to the CWR main menu.
12.Select 'wipe data/factory reset' in CWR and confirm with 'yes'
13.Select 'install zip from sdcard', then select 'choose zip from sdcard', then select the zip file you want to install and confirm.
14.Wait until the Rom installation is complete, then 'select reboot system now'.
15.Your phone will reboot and be up and running! Custom Roms tend to take longer to boot so be patient.
Let me know what happens.

Are you using CM7 nightly? I think it has a USB mount bug and the google apps including market are not in the CM7 rom and have to be flashed separately from the rom.

The usb storage isn't showing up after I run cwm
Another restoration method you could try is using Odin to flash back to stock and retry the whole root process step by step ....I am on my phone right now so its hard for me to dig for threads but I know there are instructions and a stock Odin image floating about

yes, i can access clockwork mod also, but it the usb storage wont show up.....
Follow these instructions:
1. Slap self in head.
2. Power on phone while holding volume up&power button.
3. Now on the pc, Get the fastboot folder to the root of hard drive, I.E. C:\fastboot\. Also add to this folder your *.img files (radio, recovery, boot, system, data, etc.)
4. Open start menu.
5. In search box type cmd and press enter.
6. Now command window is open, type in that
cd C:\fastboot
fastboot flash * *.img
Replace the * with appropriate .imgs.
recovery, system, data, boot, radio.
Example
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
7. Now that that is finished type
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
8. Now the phone will reboot. BE PATIENT AS THIS MAY TAKE UP TO TEN MINUTES TO FULLY REBOOT INTO ANDROID!!! Disturbing it in anyway can cause corruption. I had this happen to my phone before. Literally walk away and come back in ten. Don't touch it, don't breath on it nothing. If you have any further problems either post here or PM me. Getting the .img files and fastboot is up to you. By the previous replies you should have them already.

I think I had the same problem. first you need to check if your pc has the correct driver to accept the nexus s in bootloader mode. when that is done and you have colckword mod , you can but a custom rom on the sd card and flash that, then you'll be able to use your phone again.

It sounds like you have a PD15IMG.zip file in the root of your SD card. That's what the bootloader is detecting when it asks you if you want to update or not. Remove that file and it will bypass the update step and take you to the bootloader main menu. There you can select recovery. From there, I would re-download your ROM installation file, full wipe (data, cache, Dalvik-Cache), and re-flash your ROM.
I tried that
i tried that too but it still checks for those but then lets me select recovery but when i click recovery it gives me a picture of a phone and a red triangle thanks though any more help would be much appreciated!

I don't think you have a custom recovery yet, download the rom manager from the market and have it flash a recovery for you. When you go back you should see something very different.
If for you already have flashed the recovery, press the power button when you see the lil phone pic and your recovery should come up

google search androidSDK, and install it on your computer.
there are millions of threads out there telling you how to set it up so i'd suggest you read some of those. once you get adb set up, connect your phone (USB DEBUGGING ON! enable in settings/applications/development).
type "adb devices" without quotes to see if your device is connected. then type
Code:
su
adb reboot bootloader
the phone should reboot into fastboot, if it isn't in fastboot, manually scroll to it with the volume buttons and select with power button.
now, you need the recovery image, i'll post it at the bottom of this post. after you get the recovery image, move it to androidSDK/tools or wherever your adb/ fastboot folder is located, and rename it to "recovery.img".
now, type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
it should give you two OKs, if it does, then you're all set, reboot the phone into bootloader, select recovery, and flash a rom on there

To make it easier for the OP, this thread gives you all you need to know to get ADB up and running.
Also, the above fastboot instructions are correct, but will only work with the engineering bootloader. Hopefully the OP's phone has that.

ok that's ok, you can still flash recovery through fastboot, which doesn't need USB debugging on.
so steps:
1) download the recovery image and rename to "recovery.img"
2) move the image to wherever your adb/fastboot tools are located
3) open command prompt (in windows)
4) cd to where your adb/fastboot tools are located
5) REBOOT PHONE INTO HBOOT, THEN CONNECT TO COMPUTER
6) manually scroll and select fastboot using the volume and power buttons
7) type
Code:
fastboot devices
to make sure your phone is detected.
8) if it is, type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
should give you two OKs.
9)once the recovery is in there, flash a rom on

1. First do you know what rom version you where on?, if you do know download that rom then extract from it the stock recovery using Huawei Update Extractor .
2. If there is two files of recovery just choose one, the one without any numbers. So you will have RECOVERY.img file.
3. Now make sure all files needed to recognize your phone are installed and adb is installed too. What you will need now is to push the RECOVERY.img file to the phone.
4. Connect the device to the computer and Put the RECOVERY.img file inside the folder where fastboot.exe is located. Then hold shift and right click to open CMD(command prompt) from there. Once CMD is open run the following code:
adb devices (This will show if your device is connected)
adb reboot bootloader (will reboot the device in bootloader mode)
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
5. After this take the rom which you extracted the recovery from and put it in the memory card (dload folder)
6. When phone is OFF hold (volume up + volume down+ power key) together until you see Huawei startup logo then release. The flash process of the rom should start.

4. Connect the device to the computer and Put the RECOVERY.img file inside the folder where fastboot.exe is located. Then hold shift and right click to open CMD(command prompt) from there. Once CMD is open run the following code:
adb devices (This will show if your device is connected)
adb reboot bootloader (will reboot the device in bootloader mode)
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
5. After this take the rom which you extracted the recovery from and put it in the memory card (dload folder)
6. When phone is OFF hold (volume up + volume down+ power key) together until you see Huawei startup logo then release. The flash process of the rom should start.

Follow the instructions i stated earlier. Put the rom the dload folder( inside it Update.app) in sdcard and flash it by turning off the phone and then hold( volume up+volume down + power) at the same time to begin the flash process or read the pdf file that comes with the rom after you unzip it.
:good: As soon as i got home i'll try! Thank you so much Rashad!:angel:

Try to flash the stock recovery like the way i mentioned. Turn off the device by holding the power until it powers off and remove any usb connections to the pc. Then hold volume down and connect the usb to the pc until you see fastboot mode come up. After that enter the code i gave to flash the stock recovery and then follow the rest of the instructions.
I got the recovery into my phone. But i cannot get in to fastboot again... The screen i took pic is popping up.....

To enter the fastboot mode disconnect the phone from the PC. Shut it down by holding power until it's off. Then hold volume down and connect the phone to the PC at the same time.
