Soft Bricked MetroPCS 626s.. Small request PLEASE - Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Last night I reverted back to stock to receive the MM update. Which I did then I flashed twrp via fastboot and rooted phone. At that point the phone worked perfectly, but me being myself was far from content with only twrp and a rooted MM update that probably most ppl would love to be able to have but cant figure out how to do it. Anyways I wanted all of the storage I was accustom to thanks the memory mod by sandix (shoutout sandix for a sweet mod). In hind sight everything is 20/20 and I can only blame my lack of common sense on being very tired. I attempted the mod around 3am not even thinking anything about the boot partition mod. Looking back I can see how retarded it was. Either way my problem remains the same. For some reason only known to god my metro pcs ruu is failing everytime. I am quite certain that all I need is a boot partition for MM. Can someone please create a backup of an unmodified boot partition and send it my way.... That would be t!tt!es. Thank you in advance.

down load this and put it in your SD card
https://mega.nz/#!4JI2yDgD!zqDl-_D1qG-UoaNadCmDitdiZRtLMsLXEDE1HzDMgPY
Then what you need to do is boot into download mode and it will ask you automatically if you want to flash it Say yes

My cable modem is garbage.. Usually download thru mobile data bc it is so so so much faster... Real quick.. I just came from a 6p which spoils ppl like me on how easy they are to work with. That fudge bar fell out of my pocket into a nasty a$$ gas station toilet... It was the kind where you gotta ask for a key because its outside... Im talking emergency only restroom status. The kind that you just look at the big ass stick connected to the key and be scarred to even touch that without a hazmat suit... or gloves at the bare minimum. I swear... no lie.. it was so foul that I could smell it from several yards away. Now im a veteran so in boot camp we had to do the tear gas chamber.. So I can hold my breath for a gooe amount of time but I cannot do anything when the air is so pungent and (for lack of a better word) thick that you can actually taste it. But it was either that or piss my pants... In hindsight I should have pissed on the side of the building but there was ppl everywhere... And the icing on the cake... (drum roll) A terd th at would rival Shaquelle O'Neils ****. All I heard was CURPLUNG! ........ F*** .... I just left it right there.. Never even looked back. Long story short I bought this phone off craigslist for $10 to hold me over the summer and get the new Nexus coming out in Q3.. lol.. I got off track a little.. What im courious to know is that if I put that file on my sd card and boot into download mode does it automatically run or do I have to direct it thru adb???
Thank you so much... I was stuck like chuck in that muck!

Can't boot to CM Recovery but...

I can't boot to CM Recovery 1.4.
But I can boot to the SPL (Three Skateboards with white Screen)
I have a white G1 specs are:
8GB ADATA SD Class 6
Partioned at: 2GB EXT 2 32MB Swap Rest FAT32
I am updated on the newest radio and the SPL.
I am running Cyan 4.0.4
The Scenario:
I was playing COD5 on PS3. I went to Ifap.to on phone while it was on Wifi. So then I was trying to skip through the video and the phone obviously froze up and then it shut off and reboot itself. It never got past the T-Mobile G1 screen.
Then I tried to go to recovery by holdinh home + power and it doesn't work. So I held down power + camera and it goes to the three skateboards so I know I'm not bricked(not yet) What can be the issue and what would I have to do to fix this.
Please email me or post here whichever is convenient to you.
Thanks,
I WILL DONATE BEER MONEY TO 1ST PERSON WHO HELPS FIX MY DAMN PHONE!!

[Q] insert brick type here...i need your help guys

Okay, obviously I was rooted. Everything was great. I went into CWM, when I was going to flash a simple script mod (which every phone can use) well I accidently clicked off into my SGII files (which of course was stupid of me) and it installed fluxii kernel for SGH-i777. (intern flashes a custom recovery for the xx tweaker that that particular kernel uses. Of course, I didn't even realize I had done it, just went to Reboot Now. Now, I've got no Download mode, no bootloader, no anything, just blackness, I feel as if there is a simple key process or way to somehow get it fixed so I can flash it back via ODIN, but with all the confusing button combo's and ideas I've found so far, and all the ' types of bricks ' I dont know the best route about doing this, whomever helps me get my phone unbricked/unsoftbricked/superbricked/cute bricked, which ever version (assuming its possible) I swear on my life I will mail them a 32GB HP touchpad.
(I have 3 and only need 2) so, I hope this in some way will get me an answer soon.
I cantbelieve I pulled a n00b. No more not moving data from SD cards for me ever again...
Thanks, and the sooner the better.
Mail me here, or gmail me ( [email protected]) or heck text me if you want (i have my SGII still) just message me priavtely for the number. Thanks you guys you're the best.

I would rccomend trying to use Odin to see if it recognizes your phone? You may have to get a USB jig to force it into download mode and you may be able to save it that way I'm pretty sure a jig would work

Yeah thats Kinda my thinking as well unfortunately, Why the hell cant they sell them at like, I derno, the "rooted developer" store? hell Samsung should just include them in the box with as easy as root is. lmao What I don't get, is why the hell someone can't make a ' USB JIG ' out of their computer, or you know, something to tickle that little ports happy spot lmfao

why cant they sell these damn jigs on craigslist for immediate satisfaction? oh well some idiot just offered to trade me one of my 3 SGII's I own for a note and 50 bucks haha "I WANT IT UNROOTED AND NORMAL" was his email. hahaha

but cash isnt whats important to me, just technology really..idk, hell they're going for ridiculous onebay right now. and err, lets just say mine dont run CM9, or MIUI, hell I have my own recovery, Webos is all i knew for a while. I was always scared to post here, for the number of n00b post haters. I just stopped caring about those haha. I also have 2 Palm pre 2's running Android via a glitch in the Launcher/Wallpaper, and a Pre 3 Running ICS hybrided with basically the apps running in the 'recent windows ' version of ICS....
I really dunno man right now is I NEED TO GET THIS NOTE FIXED ASAP anyone know like a local place to go get it fixed temporarily they've gone to before. hell XDA should buy like shipments of them. we're the only ones that buy the damn things anyway.
also one more idea i found is this: idk if it just doesnt make sense to me, but if someone can make sense of it for me, and tell me its worth a shot...by all means..explain. http://samsunggalaxyreview2.blogspot.com/2011/07/one-click-unbrick-tool-for-samsung.html

It might be worth a go man. I would reccomend having it plugged into a computer and keep trying to turn it on even if the screen doesn't turn on and see if Odin picks anything up. Its not going to hurt your device anymore :/ you could always go to a hardware store and buy a mini USB and a 300k resistor and trying to make a jig yourself if that unbrick doesn't work (which I don't think it will)

Well what do I have to lose? Potentially (with better instructions of course and a noob friendly UI) if it works on my note, ill try it on my original galaxy...who knows few tweaks and maybe all these folks suffering from bricked Notes/SII/SIII's will have an easy way to fix it. (hey guys, just let me be optimistic here.. at least unti somebody else comes up with a bright idea haha

Fixed. I'll write up a XDA guide, and no I didnt use that silly guide. I used a trick the stupid guy at samsung tech support told me about something on the back of the phone will write up in a bit.
it involves a paperclip, and a hidden compartment behind somewhere where most would never dare stick anything, its rather a hidden reset button or something I wouldnt recommend it to anyone however...if someone finds themself in a bind id gladly help, but its that way or shipping it back if done wrong basically I just got lucky.

Starting with me(WTF MOMENT)
My power button got killed so i could wake the phone or turn off the display..so to keep the phone awake i used a ebook reader with night mode in lowest brightness and to wake the phone i used the power cable... and to power on i used the power cable method(plugging and suddenly removing the cable) LOL that was the most frustating week of my life

My WTF moment was when I bought this phone and months after, I heard: "No updates for Optimus Black", and I said: "FFFFFFFUUUUUUU LG"
there was once i was having fun with my friends when they started doing some really funny stuff.
i took out my OB to film it down, but when i played the recording back i noticed that there was freezes in between the video.
i hated my phone ever since. tried diferent roms and the problem persists, could be with my SD card though. but there's no way im swapping out my 32gb class 4 for another one.
Mine was inexperience flashing my under guarantee ob i was so afraid most amazing is when my gf sawn her pic in nova display wid crispy clearity

I bricked my ob two days after I got it and had no windows... (I use Debian). So I waited a week for a friend to come back. My first smartphone ever... bricked in two days...
Then I was reading about "gorilla glass", my kitty came and - mimetism, I think - decided to tap the screen and made a scratch.
It fell three times the same day... only few little scratches that proved my friends their Iphones were made like cars: made to break as soon as possible...
And, the best, when I compared screen size and phone weight to my friends' Iphone. There was an advertisment sayin' "when you have an Iphone, you have blahblah"... and I was jokin' "you have a real tiny screen..." lol.
And last, when my friend adked me to make a wifi point for him to use his Ipad in the train. I was like: "so... how's android?
And the fun I got using stuff in here. Gorgious. Thank y'all.

My greatest moment is when i use my p970 to actually make a call (or receive one). I know its not as fancy as you kids with your "bricking" and "repairing" or "myspacing" but im ok with that :silly:
But Seriously, nothing happend
When I realized how to install the last firmware (V20N at that time) on my brand (damn TIM) OB.
Jump from V1.0a (or something similar, I don't remember) to V20N was a great thing..
Oh, all this thanks to LGExtract and SmartFlashTool.

pretty much the same about LGOB vs Iphone XD...
like a month after I got my OB, just root it and flash cm7 like a year ago so it was way unstable, so some friends and I were at a concert and I was like your phone can't do this and so on... start recording a video while the best song playing, phone self-rebooting... priceless XD
Finding out I can improve the performance/behavior/interface by finding xda, before buying the phone (my first droid), therefore deciding I shall buy it. That Froyo look sure is fugly.
well i always see my exam result in my phone....... don't know why but i always pass all the exams when ever i see through my ob its the best and the luckiest phone ever
When I showed my OB in a club and it got me laid......
just sayin....

I might as well introduce myself and let the games begin.

I am no ordinary greenhorn, in fact, to be completely honest this is the first smart phone I have ever owned. Before this love affair began with my thrill 3D, I was partial to the cheap flip phones. So without further ado; I rooted her bricked her first by checkin out system tuner and seeing what would happen if I turned up a thing or two. When i woke in the morning jungle font stopped unexpectedly, so i pressed force close, it came back faster than i could pull my thumb away, after about a dozen or so times w/ the same result, I did what any sensible idiot comparable to uneducated stone would do and pulled the battery. She rebooted with no font. Factory reset, root again recover my beloved apps and data and then (again what any sensible idiot would and opened system tuner. in my defense, however i was only moving system files to sd not uninstalling them. 'ol thrill did not like that one bit and with a sudden burst of rage-full, maniacal, protest force closed files of all types, one super quickly right after another. it was a domino effect sort of thing. anyway, i tried the lg flash package steps several times to no avail, now it seems overwhelming. tomorrow i am dive right in to xda university deal i heard about, but in the mean time any help in getting my deeply missed thrill back on line would be appreciated so much more than most of you could imagine. i have a lot on plate and this couldn't have been a worse time for me kill my life line. Thank you guys in advance. sorry 'bout the long post, verbose is my middle name.

Actually my friend, I'm in my late thirties with two little boys. I'm a single dad, with zero presence from their biological co-founder. I'm a carpenter by trade, hence the cheap flip phones in the past. In addition to work and kids, I did start going to college full time (I'm in my second semester) for child psychology in order to better understand the difference between my youngest (4) who is developing typically and my oldest (7) who is autistic. In the middle of wrestling an already obese schedule, I am smack dab in the middle of fighting with the school district because they are (in my opinion based on my careful observation) stuck in the process of teaching autistic kids how to be more autistic rather than how to be "human" like most of the rest of us. To recover my boy from his public-school-bootloop seems to be as equally perplexing as my phone. A seventh grade education over twenty years ago only goes so far. So there it is, while I love to write, I am far from a frat boy, where they get laid in bed, I only lay in bed Embarrassing really, but my sacrifice is/will be the root of all of my boys smiles. I don't have the money nor the desire to buy a new phone. I love my thrill! It is imperative that I get it back online ASAP. Unfortunately often times a picture in crayon is what I need when it comes to some things. If you guys can't or won't help me get it going I figure it out, I always do. But no matter what, I will have my thrill. P.S. Mad props for all you guy that have put the effort into XDA University and the slang terms thread, I admire people who give up their time and energy just for the sake of sharing what they know, for us "noobs" that kind of generosity is the only way learn about such alien concepts and processes as these. Like I said "I'm no ordinary greenhorn" Thanks again in advance, time is ticking and I'm not using a pay phone and refuse to get a flipper! Gotta run, good day all!!!!!!

'ol thrill did not like that one bit and with a sudden burst of rage-full, maniacal, protest force closed files of all types, one super quickly right after another. it was a domino effect sort of thing. anyway, i tried the lg flash package steps several times to no avail, now it seems overwhelming. tomorrow i am dive right in to xda university deal i heard about, but in the mean time any help in getting my deeply missed thrill back on line would be appreciated so much more than most of you could imagine. i have a lot on plate and this couldn't have been a worse time for me kill my life line. Thank you guys in advance. sorry 'bout the long post, verbose is my middle name.

I followed the instructions from an optimums thread by dark lestat, i tried four times. but absolutely nothing happened. Norton was a problem, fixed that. then found out what a com port was, let me ask anyway, that refers to the USB port right, and not communication port like maybe through a my firewall? i haven't tried a different USB cable yet cause i just found out about it tonite while i was looking for some answers. do i do anything with the kidz file? i would rather have a different ROM, what is the recovery manager for? and one more clarification, how do I know that it is working at the last step when i put the bat back in and connect the USB to my lap top? will it vibrate or screen flash or something. I am going to try again tomorrow. i learned a lot i didn't know today from xda u, so I don't feel so lost. I can build a house ,but droid recovery is a whole ball game! Thanks again Bigtech.
another Q
Does it matter which kdz file I choose, if so Which one should I use? I ended up with the official gingerbread cause it was the only link that worked.
use either v30b kdz of v28b kdz. they're both ics, which is, i believe much better than gingerbread
Any word if they got rid of the ghost call problem? And I am very surprised that ATT still cares about this phone considering they discontinued it like 5 months after they started to sell it

question
why b2cappsetup pop up tellin me to connect with the internet when i already am? tryin to flash v30b recovering from a bootloop. thanks!
sorry bro
Hate the game Dog, not the playa:laugh: the xda new-membe- intro video made me do it! It said that you old pros are "lawn geezers" and we are the kids runnin across your front yard. I was simply getting into charector:} nah just kiddin, i did over do it a bit though huh won't happen again either cause you all are much more helpful when your not pissed.
OK I have not read your other posts. Install Smartflash instead and install the 2 drivers. Then flash XBSA's pretty rooted ROM with Smartflash.
Download XBSA's V7.2 ROM and flash it from recovery.

I'm gonna try the second one again first though, something isn't right with the b2cappsetup, maybe its my anti virus or firewall

Not a Exactly Newbie ...

Not really a Newbie .. Just haven't posted in a few years .. Used to be known as "sheeesh" but can't remember my old password and after trying to get back on, I gave up and started over ... Since last posted I joined every other person on the planet and bought a few iphones and a few Samsung Notes. My eyes are getting very old as well as my mind and only a moron can't figure out how to use an iPhone. I am using that now and just gave my grandson my Note 9 ... The only old gadget I still own is the HTC Shift x9500 .. It's about ready for the trash I think but hate to give up on it .. Can't start up, won't charge it seems .. Don't know if it is the charger or the battery because it won't start even if plugged it. Last time I used it I updated it to Windows 7 or Vista I think. Maybe even Windows 8... Can't remember but it was working fine when I turned it off ... Any comments?
Welcome back to XDA
For your sake I hope it's W7 cause Vista SUCKS.
You'll need to replace the cmos battery as it's surely dead as Zed by now.
On most laptops they will power up but you need to configure the bios to go any further as it's settings were lost with the battery.
The power supply maybe dead.
About the only things that really fail with sitting are the electrolytic caps and sometimes the hdd will seize up.
Thanks .. I will give everything you said a check/try ... I have been away and not getting adventurous with my gadgets because ... LONG STORY SHORT ... I got cancer ... fell in the hospital .. hit my head and then everything went downhill .. . On the bright side, been cancer free for 3 years ... Just my brain isn't working like it used to since the bump on the noggin' ... I was thinking maybe I should try and reclaim my old username but it isn't important I guess.

Sorry to hear about that. It can always get worse as my Nam Vet friends say.
Be especially on your guard now against falls. Try to start pumping some steel, it's increases your physical and mental prowess, rehabilitates.
Ask a mod to try to fix the user name issue.
Enjoy your chill time here

I think the problem was the power supply. I used another and it booted right up .. almost RIGHT UP ..

Yay, indeed... don't let it update!
So the bios data is still valid?
You might want to copy that down if so as that cmos battery has to be low.
