Semi-bricked (fastboot access only)

Make sure that you NEVER flash the 6.35.xxxx radio with perfected spl you will have access to fastboot only. Did it and regret it.

If you have access to fastboot, shouldn't there be some way to save it? Have you tried applying SAPPIMG.nbh?

Whatever the term is for it, I can't save the device. Because the SPL is perfected, it will not allow me to flash anything at all, radio, recovery, spl.... nada. Just a word to the wise, don't do it. LOL. I've tried everything. got a galaxy s though.

I had a semi bricked phone that could only get to fastboot with the perfectedSPL. Was able to flash the Sappimg.nbh file to reroot, then unroot it again and it worked fine

Strange.... it wouldn't let me flash it.

That's because you don't "flash" sappimg.nbh, you apply it from the bootloader, I think. Power + Volume Down.

Ok, let me put it this way: i can't "flash" or apply anything. It's jacked up.

Hey I screwed up quite a few times in the beginning when rooting, a few times where I could only enter fasboot. What worked for me was flashing the official update from htc (htc.com/dk) from fastboot. (Then of course the hassle of re-rooting, but if that's the only way, small price). I don't know if you can get an official RUU to try? Otherwise, pm me and I'll se about sending you the file if you want to try with the Danish one (I think it's 1.5 or 1.6 + sense UI)..
Edit. This was comming from the official update with perfect split, 1.76.0007.
And you'll of course need to installed fasboot drivers if you haven't already....

TheUnlockr.com has a link to the nbh file that works on my 32B AMERICAN TMOBILE MYTOUCH 3G, but I have no idea if that'll work on your Rogers phone.

Well the mytouch I have is 32A. I did have the file on the SD card.... but no dice.

what procedure are you following? You should have the sappimg.nbh file on the root of the sd card, then boot into fastboot and choose "apply update from sd card." Then just relax until you're in cupcake and use flashrec to install amon_ra recovery, and proceed to flash roms as usual.

You could try this method, see if it helps.

MT4G screen not working.

Hello,
My wife's rooted MT4G touch screen is not responding to touch anymore nor is the trackpad working. I don't know what happen but I'm going to try to get a warranty replacement, but I need to unroot and turn s on before I send it in. My question how can I do this if the screen and trackpad are not working? Is it possible through sdk and if so, anyone can provide me instructions ? Thanks on advanced.

Sounds like a defective digitizer. Considering it's a hardware issue the warranty would still apply

Rooting voids the warranty when it comes to software. Defective hardware is still covered. Doesn't hurt to unroot though. Toss pd15img on ur SD card and restore it

If you got s-off, i don't think unrooting it will undo that. there are specific guides to turn s back ON but i doubt you would be needing that.
Good luck though.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V4NAODYZ
that is pd15img, the link shared by theunlockr so pretty good source. It will revert all parts of your system back to stock, so it should be s-on after.
This isn't meant to fix the screen, and the touchscreen isn't required to use pd15img. It is only for extra protection against getting your warranty rejected even though it's a hardware issue.
this guide will help

I tried all the buttons and it is like they are not responsive, I know for fact the volume buttons work because I had to use them to select for the .zip file. I also uses the key tester in clockwork recovery to check and see if my keys were working or not. I have tried pulling the battery out, so I am not sure if I missed a step??
Thanks,
Kei

EDITED:
It seems I forked up. I didn't realize it but it is my own fault for being in a hurry. I did use the gfree method on my phone by moving the gfree files to where the guide told me and then used a terminal emulator to execute gfree. Since I already flash PD15img.zip, and I am screwed or is there something I can possibly do so that I can properly unroot by undoing gfree? If I got to learn to use adb, I will! I appreciate your help in advance!

well with that I assume you did gfree to root. I may be wrong but I think you need to use to touchscreen to revert that completely. Just try to get a replacement with the current setup.

well... you can just reboot normally, right? in that case, put the part7backup file wherever you're supposed to. I didn't do the gfree method, so i dont really know how to do it. that guide i posted earlier should have proper instructions, though.

The only thing I can think of is, buy an sdcard reader if your pc doesn't already have one intergrated. Take out your sdcard, put it in the card reader, plug it to your pc and format the sdcard. Redownload the pd15 zip via pc and copy it to the sdcard.
Insert back your sdcard. Boot into hboot and let it do its thing. When its done press vol up for yes to update and when that's done power to reboot. If it reboots fine then you're good to go.
If that still sends you to hboot after reboot, the last thing I can think off to do is just remove your sdcard and boot into hboot. That way the phone won't read anything and let you choose and boot into the stock recovery(it should be blue lettering) from recovery just wipe data factory reset and reboot again see what happens then.

[Q] my wifes my touch 4g stopped working after she was charging it.

Her phone is not rooted and she didn't try to mess with it. She was just charging it and it just stays stuck on the "mytouch 4g" screen. I can get into the recovery but none of the options work. I press on factory reset but it just gets stuck on the mytouch screen and nothing happens.I've left it for like 15 mins and nothing happens. Does anyone know what is wrong with it. Not even factory reset works

Mytouch 4g

I know this isn't the right place, but I am new, so I can't post where needed. A few months ago I watched a YouTube video and rooted my phone and put CM7 Rom on it. I guess the video didn't do the backup part and since then I have lost all other back up options besides one I created last month. Is there anyway I can get my phone back to the original mytouch 4g before ginger bread? I used the gfree method, but as stated I can't restore before that because a backup was not done before the cm7 flash

Invasion2 is correct. The "system" files are stored on the internal memory. Any folders/files missing from the sd card that weren't put there by you will be regenerated by android and apps you use.

I ended up putting another SD card in that worked in another phone (could also format a new card FAT32) and was able to finally get past this and get the stock (froyo) image on.
