getting familiar with the splash and artistic process of this stuff, made a few splash screen, also included is the splash converter program so you can take the pic inside the zip and convert to splash image and flash, hope you like them so far, enjoy.
UPDATE 1: Added more splash screens
evosplash1.rgb565
OK not sure how you put this on the phone?
Do I have to 'root' the phone?
I read your instructions 5 times and I am
"
To flash an image:
1. open up image
2. verify image on the gui
3. click convert
4. start your phone up in Fastboot mode. you can do this by holding power and VOL+DOWN.
5. push files to phone: fastboot flash splash1 evosplash1.rgb565
6. reboot phone: fastboot reboot "
lost?
Cd to the directory where u put the img....make sure your phone is in fastboot usb mode
Ex. Cd c:\users\yourname\desktop
Hit enter then type the fastboot command

I was always able to ADB shell into my phone after i installed the proper USB drivers as well as Pull up ADB DEVICES no problem and i SAW ADB DEVICE in my device manager
Ok i have finally got to the steps where i have flashed my sappimag.zip file to my Mytouch successfully. that ROM has been flashed and now when i boot the phone up it says VODAFONE and i can get intot he phone fully
I have turned the device off and hold the BACK and POWER button and the FASTBOOT screen comes up. i plug in the USB cable an FASTBOOT changes to FASTBOOT USB ok great.
i pull up CMD and type in ADB SHELL and it says DEVICE NOT FOUND. i type in ADB DEVICES and its blank.
I power down and power back up fully and same thing (but it was working before the flash of sappimg.zip)
i downloaded and installed HTC SYNC which supopsedly has updated XP drivers and it did.
i power down phone and power back up as normal and pull up CMD ADB SHELL works fine and ADB DEVICES shows my serial number. ok making progress.
I have turned the device off and hold the BACK and POWER button and the FASTBOOT screen comes up. i plug in the USB cable an FASTBOOT changes to FASTBOOT USB ok great.
i pull up CMD and type in ADB SHELL and it says DEVICE NOT FOUND. i type in ADB DEVICES and its blank still again.
what gives? why does this only work now with phone fully booted and not in fastboot mode?
also note my device manager no longer has ADB DEVICE anymore its gone.
adb doesn't work in fastboot mode.
edit for clarity: When you boot the phone in fastboot mode, adb isn't supposed to work. You have to boot fully, or boot into one of the recovery images that supports adb for it to work, fastboot doesn't support adb at all.

ok so what does this mean in the directions then? how am i supposed to perform the below directions in red then?
FLASH your T-Mobile myTouch 3G
Make sure are using fastboot from the latest SDK (release 3) !
- Power-off your device
- Insert the goldcard
- Power on while holding volume down (of fastboot your device and then press volume down)
- It should pick up the sappimg.zip and you should be able to flash it.
- Once the flashing is FULLY finished power off your device.
- Remove the goldcard and insert the SD (with update.zip)
- Power on while holding back (=fastboot) and connect the USB cable
- Download my RAv1.2.0H recovery and fastboot it :
Code:
fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img
it means exactly what it says:
Download the recovery image to your computer then, from your computer, run the command:
"fastboot boot recovery-image-name.img"
fastboot is a command line utility that comes with the android sdk. It allows you to push recovery images to the phone while it's in fastboot mode and boot them.
adb is used to communicate with the phone while it's running an android image, NOT while it's in fastboot mode.

ok i understand what you mean and say BUT look at the directions and it clearly says:
POWER ON WHILE HOLDING BACK (FASTBOOT) and then CONNECT USB
when i read that it makes me thnk think literal and to hold the Back button my my device and hold power and watch it come into fas boot mode and then when itmentions connect USB it makes me think im supposed to go into ADB shell commadn and then type that command in.
so im definately not trying to argue with you just trying to get you to se my point of view on why i am confused thats all.
i really apreciate your help on this.

ok one thing that again is confusing is that you say ADB can not recognize the phone while in fastboot mode but then you said i use the fastboot command line to push recovery images to the phone while its in fastboot mode.
how am i suppose to do that if the ADB shell (where i run the fastboot command line from) does not work if the phone is in fastboot mode (the mode it has to be in to accept recovery images)
see what i mean very confusing.
i just rebooted my phone normal. connected it to USB and went into CMD and ADB shell comes up fine
i typed in ADB SHELL
and then :
# fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img
and it says:
C:\>adb shell
# fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img
fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img
fastboot: not found
fastboot is different from adb........
2 different programs. adb.exe and fastboot.exe
just place the fastboot.exe file from the sdk into system32.
and try to put the recovery file in to the sdcard.
rename it to recovery.img to prevent misspelling .

I guess my Mytouch is now rooted? but wth a 32A radio?
i want to flash a 32B cyanogen 3.9.10 rom onto this device and using the directions below:
For Daredevils : Perform the following steps only if you want to revert to a 32B based radio and ROM.
Revert to 32B Radio and ROM :
- Download your favorite 32B ROM and copy it to your sdcard
- Download the Ion radio image from the HTC site.
- Extract radio.img from ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip using your favorite rar/zip program.
- Download my 32B RAv1.2.0G recovery.
- Fastboot your mobile and connect it via USB :
where it says copy your favorite ROM to your SD card well the ROM name i want is called "update-cm-3.9.10-signed.zip"
do i need to rename it to anything? or just leave it as it is?
do i literally just copy that file to my clean empty SD card no renaming to UPDATE or something like that?
Hi everybody, it's my first message here for a big promblem to solve.
First of all my Sapphire version is 32A SHIP S-ON H
I tried to install a Hero version on my Magic by following a recent tutorial.
- I tried to use ecovery-RAv1.2.0H.img (and older version) without success.
- After copying a JACxHERO version (and rename --> update.zip on the SD Card), I lauched the update with daldroid-recovery.img.
- The phone doesn't start (blocked with HTC Magic on the screen)
Problems:
- The backup I did with daldroid doesn't work
- My phone doesn't boot normally anymore
- I can't access the SD Card anymore (with Windows | Dos )
- The USB drivers are correctly installed
What is THE solution to reset the phone (by putting an original version of android on it)???
Thanks a lot for your help!

"update-cm-3.9.10-signed.zip" is perfect. Copy it to the SD, but rename to update.zip JIC.

thank you
With Amon_RA's RAv1.2.0 recovery you don't need to rename . I keep my favourite roms in my sd card and switch back and forth all the time
You just select (when fastbooted into recovery) Flash - Choose .zip, and you get a list with all .zip files on sd card root Sweeeet
Start asking your questions in the right sub-forum (Q&A) (Theme) or even in (General), or i will be forced to ban you for 3 days or till you learn.
Thanks

Here is a simple splash screen I made.
1. Unzip into tools folder
2. Boot into fastboot
3. In ADB put this command
fastboot flash splash1 evosplash1.rgb565
Looking good!
Why does it keep tellimg me it cant be loaded im in fastboot i run the command as u posted i run fastboot devices and it shows my device evosplash1.rgb565 in in the sdk tools folder am i missing something plz help ?? thanks
A little something for the ladies, that might want a touch of pink on their phones. ;-)
How to flash:
1. Unzip the file so you have "splash1.img" and place this file in your "tools" folder of your SDK package.
2. Boot into your bootloader (fastboot mode)
3. From the command prompt: Change directories to your SDK "Tools" folder then type:
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img
4. Reboot and enjoy
Absolutely gorgeous! Keep up the good work!
swee-eet. i like it a lot...nice touch with the quietly pink.
I've captured the ota file for the october security patch on my LEO-DLXX. Instructions for install follow.
0. Unlock Bootloader
1. Download https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TwtOBmz-01a2EjLFdFnbGi8pqOGEeOCa/view (not my file) and https://mega.nz/#!Cu5giA6A!BoflaUUy2DnhYFa1hO9_l-G83DYGCFSq6mwiYgenxDc and oreo-recovery.img from https://forum.xda-developers.com/watch-2/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-3-1-0-0-touch-t3631364
2. Extract the SawShark.rar file into a new folder. Delete the two scripts as they do some weird stuff. Extract the sawshark.zip file into the same folder, and you will now have 3 .img files. Run the following commands to flash them:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery oreo-recovery.img # TWRP
fastboot flash system system.img
Don't worry if you see something about "sparse header magic invalid number" or similar, flashing will continue anyway. When the flashing completes, reboot the device into recovery with the power button and the instructions on screen. Note that the display says "short press to select, long press to go to next item" however, its the other way round. Tap the power button until is shows reboot-recovery, then long-press to select.
3. TWRP will load. Make sure ADB is working and run
Code:
adb push update.zip /data/ota_package
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img # Stock Recovery
and reboot the device into recovery again.
4. The update should install. If it doesnt, probably you need /cache/recovery files there, but i dont have them any more.
My Android phone (Motorola Edge) can no longer start properly after a failed system update. The message I get is: "Cannot load Android system. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device."
I've tried restarting it in recovery mode which didn't work. I've read that I may be able to install some software via USB and rescue the system but I have no idea how that's done. I've looked at some different rescue software such as Rescue and Smart Assistant (which would only let me rescue the phone which will erase all data) and Dr.Fone but the reviews aren't convincing and the unofficial software programs generally don't support Motorola phones. Does anyone know how to fix my phone without losing my data?? Any help is much appreciated.
Also; I'm in no way a developer so I need everything explained to me like I'm 12 years old.
hi, kid welcome to xda.
now about your problem, it is very simple.
1) download latest firmware according to your country.
2) boot the phone into recovery mode.
3) if you have windows on pc then install minimal adb and fast boot from this Link
4) connect your phone to pc using adb cable ( the cable in charger )
5)open command prompt type adb devices
6) if you see any thing like 213547448882 recovery ( recovery should be displayed)
7) type adb reboot bootloader
secondly unzip the downloaded firmware you will see many files with .img extension
8) type fastboot erase system
9) type fastboot flash system <----- here don't type system rather drag and drop file in cmd for location of file
10) if result is success then you must boot normally without data lose.

Thank you so much for your input. Unfortunately I can't make it work. When I type 'adb devices', I get this text:
List of devices attached
ZY227HQ2BX sideload
I've attached more info. Not sure if this has something to do with "USB debugging"?
all things right,
that sideload appears because you have stock recovery {no need to worry}
you don't need to erase system, (it is like optional)
and the error ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT....... is because as i said earlier you have to copy the path of the file not file name.
how to copy path of the file ?
well, simple on windows, open the folder in which system file is present. and again open command prompt type (remember to be in fastboot mode in mobile phone)
fastboot flash {drag and drop system file from folder to command prompt}.
it should look like (but not the same, it is an example)
fastboot flash E:/newfolder/nexus/files/system.img
tell me if you face any problem (also include screenshots like you did, great right?)
What file is the system file in this folder?

Hi again, I've spent all weekend trying to figure it out but so far no luck.
I don't know where to find the system file in the folder I downloader (see attached photo in my reply above this). I also tried making a service-batfile with guidance from YouTube but it seems my phone is locked so it doesn't work.
well sorry i was quite busy so i was not able to reply.
first thing first do you need your data
if so boot into twrp. find twrp image for your phone then use command in fastbootmode
fastboot boot and drag and drop twrp file.
after successfully booting into twrp use option to backup and backup your data in any external storage like sd card.
after that run flash all.bat inside your downloaded folder.
i will completely wipe and reinstall your firmware.
then after it again in fastboot mode boot into twrp and restore your backup that's it.

What about your original suggestions - will they not work on a locked device? Fx this:

2) boot the phone into recovery mode.
