This past weekend i rooted my MyTouch 4G Slide and all went well. i downloaded all the popular root apps like rom manager, superuser , and rom tool pro or root tool pro i forget, but while on root tool pro i was downloading fonts and trying to find a cool one so i downloaded a font from the internet and installed it and my phone went black. coincientally i had just deleted all of my backups because they were "wasting" my memory.
i tried to flash a rom to fix it , but they dont work and i think because my phone is s-on.
is there anyway else i can use a backup ? or do i have to turn my s-on to s-off ?
If you HTC unlocked you have to flash the boot.img from the ROMs zip in fastboot

USB debugging has nothing to do with fastboot. Go into bootloader then choose fastboot USB once there put the boot.img where fastboot is and use 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'

So I rooted my device with revolutionary a week ago. I hav modaco 4.0.0.8 installed and am trying to upgrade because ive moticed some roms are requiring it. My problems are that one. I cant go into recovery anymore it gets stuck at the my touch 4g image next whenever I enter the command into terminal e it says not found when o can clearly see thats its in its rightful place. I also have had no lucl w adb I jst cant seem to get it to connect so im not sure what to do anymore. Pleasee help.
Make sure you have fastboot unchecked or turn off your phone and pull the battery for a few seconds. Then turn it on while holding the volume down button. The myTouch screen shouldn't pop up and you should go straight into h-boot from where you can select recovery. If you can't then something didn't go right with your revolutionary process. If it did and you flashed the superuser zip and you can access su from terminal then you can download and install the new modaco recovery through terminal. Let us know what process you're hanging up on and we'll see what we can do to help.
Well I can go into hboot but once I click recovery it'll get stuck at the my touch screen and the problem I'm stuck at is once I type su ane begin entering the command it says the file is not found everytime but when I go into the location using file expert, it displays the .img file so I don't understand why its saying it can't find the file.
Maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Can someone go over the the step by step process??
Can you boot normally at all?
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using XDA App
Yeah I can, everything works fine, I jst can't boot into recovery mode no matter how hard I try. And I can't copy the .img file to the proper location.
You need to push it via adb or term emulator.
Sent from my HTC Doubleshot using xda premium
Tats the problem. Term emulator says the file cant b found even though it is there when i look. And adb just wont interact w my phone. I keep trying to connect it but no luck
Interesting. Idk then. Looks like you got a bad egg.

I had the same problem. Look at my first post on this forum and use the fastboot method Etn40ff gave me. I was able to enter the command from adb and it flashed the cwm recovery image like a charm.

I tried following cyanogen wiki on an Inspire 4G. It didn't work and gave "Incorrect Model ID" error.
So I switched to use Hack-Ace tool. Everything worked as expected and I guess I was going good. When Hack-Ace completed, the phone went into an infinite look showing HTC logo then blind to a black screen with background light ON.
I could ADB and reboot in bootloader where I clashed the CM7 ROM. Every step went through fine and it restarted. Now all I get is nothing.
The device shows the HTC Logo on white screen after leaving a while and the vibrator is ON constantly. It doesn't help really but keeps doing that. It will only stop if I remove battery.
Plugging the device into USB doesn't detect on PC.
When tried charging, it shows the error messages and nothing happens, no buttons interact.
I guess I have a full brickd phone now

You font nerd recovery with that file. Just out it on the root if your sdcard. Meaning not in any folder and boot into bootloader...not recovery then it will recognize the file then just follow onscreen instructions

Dude download the PD98 file above it is the rooted updated gingerbread ROM. Place it in the root of your SD card (you will have to remove SD card and use adapter to move zip file to root of SD card if PC does not recognize phone with USB cable) and power phone off then power back up holding down power button and volume down button at same time. Phone should go to bootloader then it will recognize the PD98 zip file and ask if you want to istall. Volume up for yes and it will do its thing. No need to try to get into recover phone will do it itself with the PD98 zip file. Zip is (ATT ROM 2.47.502.7 w/Radio - 26.10.04.03_M)

Hello XDA-community,
I got a nexus s, i rooted the phone and got a custum rom up and running.
then i decieded to flash a new kernel.
Once done, i rebooted my phone.
The screen turns on, but stays all black,
I cant boot into recovery (volume up + power)
If let the phone on for 10 mins to see if it boots up, but nothing, i tried to dial my number on a other phone but got me straight to voicemail.
If i put the phone on the charger the screen turns on, But stays all black too.
I searched xda and other sites but could not find a solution, help appreciated.
What is your ROM and kernel combo? Do you have any other kernels you can flash? Did you make a nandroid backup before you flashed that kernel?

I cant flash anything thats the problem,
i had cm9.1 on it : downloaded from cyanomod website.
Android started up, everything was working, but i wanted to flash a other kernel: TNS132-JB-ALPHA12 found on ( i cant post links becouse i am a new user)
got a new problem: screen wont turn on at all only when i put the phone on the charger it turns on, but all i see is a black screen.
I have not made a backup whatsoever, i even didnt clear cache when installing new kernel.
I know i am a totally noob, its becouse i have owned a hd2 and i could do anything with that device wich was unbrickable.
the first mistake was not reading here for 4 or 5 days
prior to jacking your phone up
since you probably need your phone befor that...
pull the battery
put it back
hold vol. up and hit the power button
boot to recovery
reflash the rom you had working
now
rectify the first mistake...
By the looks of it you've flashed a Jellybean kernel on an ICS ROM.

You need to use adb to push an ICS compatible kernel on to your phone, then flash it. Like someone said earlier, your kernel is meant for jellybean (android 4.1), and your ROM is based off of ice cream sandwich (android 4.0). If you've never used adb, look up a guide here in the nexus s forums on xda, I'd link you but I'm on the mobile app so I cant.

Hi there all xda developers
1 year ago i bought a new phone from ebay out of china, i buyed it there because it was a littlebit cheaper. Only problem some firmware is in chineese
When i removed the android email program, my phone didn't want to start anymore up.. it just stays restarting.
After hours of googling i needed to bootunlock my phone.. Didn't want to work.. stucked hours on that because it was already boot unlocked.
Proberbly illigal software or something..
Now its boot-unlocked and my phone is S-On
I would like to install new firmware/software that working right because my google play was also always getting error's
So i can't start my phone up..
I can get in fastboot screen
My recovery doesn't work, it stays stucked in my HTC whitescreen
Also factory reset doesn't work, stays also stucked at whitescreen.
Can any xda-developer help me with this problem and leading me to a way so i can install correct software?
I search for hours at forums and google, but i can't get out of it
I hope you guys can help me as soon as possible because i can't make any calls now.

Did you flash any recovery like CWM or TWRP using adb fastboot etc. via your PC? Or did you try to flash any stock or custom rom??

No i didn't use CWM or TWRP. When i use command fastboot i can see my device but when i use ADB he can't find it. I will try the clockwork mod recovery, you will hear from me if that works.
<----some time later----->
Okey nice i downloaded a recovery and used the command fastboot flash to get the recovery to it.
now i have a english recovery mode on.
Does anyone has good firmware/software that i can install from my sd so my phone is working good again?
Thanks so much,

I installed windows 7 on my phone. But the only problem i stays rebooting.
I formatted /boot and /factorysettting and now it is directly going to fastboot menu.
I searched for a boot.img but i couldn't find it. Does anyone has a link to a bootimage so i can fastboot that and that my phone is booting correctly?
Thanks much for help!
I really don't get what you have done, just try reflashing the rom if it goes to recovery, if not just install recovery again. Try to explayne it with a bit more details.
And just a tiny question, what did you installed?
