cant adb when the slide is powered off - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so i am trying to root the mytouch slide 3g again. I can adb just fine when its powered up. but as soon as I am in recovery, my attempts at "adb devices" wont return any info on the phones serial number. just says "list of devices attatched". even after i "loop" still cant adb afterwords. infact, because of this hiccup is why i suspect the "loop" is failing on me. Any help is greatly appreciated and im sorry for the way i worded this, its a bit difficult for me to go into these details as English isnt my first language.
thanks

now try to convince the people that say it's not the sd card that it's the sd card

If you guys saw DoidDogs video (on Mac though, but the same issue) He says the way you do it is to put the loop command on the screen but dont hit enter yet. Then get ready to click recovery and you do them basically at the same time or just a split second apart. It took him about a dozen tries, but he claims it helped.

[Q] phone does not recognize SD card

I tried to root it a few weeks ago, but it didn't quite work, so i did a hard reset.
Everything works, except the phone won't boot with the SD card in it (it just keeps looping at the "MyTouch 3g Slide" screen. And the phone will not recognize any SD card. i've tried three. the original samsung 8gb, a kingston 2gb, and a 16gb one. all the cards work perfectly on my computer, one is used to run android on my HD2. so i KNOW it works. I've tried reformatting it also, and that didn't work (FAT32).
how can i fix this?

Can you get to the bootloader and recovery with the SD card in it? If you don't know how hold down the vol down button and power button, then use the volume rocker to go down to recovery and pres power again to select it. If you can't access the bootloader with an sd card in it I would suspect a hardware issue but I'm not sure. If you can get into recovery and flash clockworkmod recovery, then re-download and flash a ROM, such as cyanogenmod 6.1.0 or CR_mod or something. Just to rule out a ROM error.
Might want to try a full wipe again using recovery if you can get into it.

In the Dev section for our phone THIS method.
Also, check the slide rom bible for some other stuff you might need, like the stock rom.
Oh, I assumed you were rooted. When you power on with Vol Down, the first screen is hboot... isn't there a full wipe option there, therefore not requiring the OP to go into recovery?
Yeah, there is a wipe option in Hboot.

nope. not yet, at least. i'm working on it now, but i keep running into problems. the latest one, is when i run the "adb push exploid /sqlite_stmt_journals" command in step 4, it just says "error: device not found". i'm pretty sure i've done everything right.
is there anyone willing to help walk me through this with an instant messenger or something? i can probably figure it out eventually, but help would be much appreciated.
also, when i plug the phone into the computer, the phone charges, but doesn't recognize the phone. windows (7) says it can't identify it. and when i unplug the phone, it resets.

if it helps, hboot does see my SD card. so i know it's not a hardware issue.
is there any way i can load the original stock firmware? i loaded ESPRIMG.zip and it worked, but didn't do anything.
It must be an issue on the computer side with your computer not recognizing your phone. I'm on my phone at the moment, with an almost dead battery (bad cm6.1 battery life) but when I get to a computer I'll look it up, there's something else you might have to install. Are you on xp vista or 7?

Yes, they will see your root attempt and say you voided your warranty, but it's easy to unroot. Although I don't think your phone is the issue here, since you can still see your microsd card when you plug into your computer, right? Like if you mount USB storage, it works?
Also, try following the instructions in the link I'm about to paste, I used it and it worked fine for me: http://androidforums.com/t-mobile-mytouch-slide/90832-adb-drivers.html

And if you cant mount usb storage on your phone and see it on your computer, then I think your phone does have an issue with the usb port. Either that or it's a rom issue? Could be something corrupted.

it MIGHT be a usb issue, but i doubt it. it can't be a rom issue, because i haven't rooted the phone.
when i hit apply update.zip in recovery, it just says "can't find /sdcard/update.zip". it's definitely there, in the root of the SD card.
any ideas?
EDIT: i just used hboot to load ESPRIMG.zip. i THINK that worked. but it still says firmware 2.1-update 1. will that be enough to clear it for HTC?

Formated internal sd. No recovery, no adb, no flashtool, no dl-mode

I messed it up ultimately. I wanted to repartition the external sd using "aparted", instead I formated and repartitioned the internal one.
My situation now: tab doesn't boot into system, doesn't show in adb, doesn't show in flashtool (offline or online), doesn't boot to recovery, doesn't boot to download and doesn't show in windows. There's only one sign of life: when I plug it into a usb cable which is attached to my PC I get the windows "connect sound". And I get the disconnect/connect sounds when turning it off while attached to PC.
I assume that I can throw away my tab. If you know better, don't be afraid to tell me!

You've tried all the button combos?
You could try the warranty... If they can't get into it either, then it probably won't matter if your rooted or not.

Good sign, yes, but will probably be difficult to recover from, might be better off just doing a warranty replacement.
Another option is to use a current version of Ubuntu or similar linux distro to see if you can access partitions from there. I remember something similar on a buddy's HTC phone a couple years back and was able to get him back up and running, so might be a similar issue here.

Good find! If that works out for you, maybe you can do a How To incase anyone encounters the same issue down the road.
Let me know if you need any partitions, although you should be able to grab most of them from any of my flashable zips. Just get them from the flash folder in the zip.
Good luck and godspeed! :fingers-crossed:

I think that will not work.
qhsusb_bulk is different from qhsusb_dload.
Newer qualcomm SOC has some "rescue" modes to recover fom bad flash. If the internal flash/eMMC can´t be accessed the SOC "bootROM" activates the qhsusb_dload mode. To get the device to "live" again is needed to use a qualcomm program to flash a qhsusb_bulk "driver" to the internal eMMC to activate the mass storage device...
There is a Korean Note2 qhsusb_dload topic about this here on xda... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914359
The problem is find the correct flasher binary to upload to the SOC, the right "driver" to flash and the correct partition layout of the internal flash/eMMC.
It´s better send to warranty replace...

[Q] E980 bricked - Computer says "unknown device" - Only boots into Recovery and DL

[Q] E980 bricked - Computer says "unknown device" - Only boots into Recovery and DL
My wife somehow managed to bork her Optimus G Pro. She was running rooted stock, and the phone ended up somehow booting to CWM. She said she "picked a few selections", and the phone won't get past CWM now.
I can't do the mobile flash tool because every time I connect the phone, it somes up as Unknown Device. This is after I updated the drivers on both computers. Tried various ports & USB cables, same thing. MY E980, by the way, shows up fine in Device Manager.
I've tried restoring a previous backup, but it still boots right back to recovery. For some reason, the phone doesn't recognize the external card, or I would have tried making a backup on the other phone with the bootloader included, but I have no way of getting it onto the broken phone, unless I can push it via adb somehow.
Anyway, I appreciate any help anyone can give

If the message you are referring to is one that pops up using a windows computer. I have seen it most of the times I have flashed back to stock. Unknown device, device can't be recognized, something not installed, etc. Carrying on with the restore method even so has also worked every time.

For some reason, it's still not reading either the SD card or recognizing the device on USB, but at least this is progress, and at least I can run the thing.
*update* and now it seems to be reading the SD card. At least with that and wifi, I'll be able to move files to/from the phone. I'm going to try reinstallng drivers. With all the reinstalling, uninstalling, and swearing I've done lately, I think there's a good chance that'll work.

Then boot device into download mode and auto flash the rom....g
Thank you but my computer no longer reads my phone sd or even shows up . Recovery is no longer an option as it only shows a red triangle with a explation point in the middle . When i put adb devices nothing shows up or adb get-state show nothing at all . Only thing im able to do is sideload but when i try to it shows it not a signed software and abort update. I think i no longer have any rom just a build number shows up when i open up htc nero,
Send it to htc.

Thank you but my computer no longer reads my phone sd or even shows up . Recovery is no longer an option as it only shows a red triangle with a explation point in the middle . When i put adb devices nothing shows up or adb get-state show nothing at all . Only thing im able to do is sideload but when i try to it shows it not a signed software and abort update. I think i no longer have any rom just a build number shows up when i open up htc nero,

What I mean is....take sd card out of your phone and place the file to it using a PC card adapter.
Once the file has been loaded to the card and renamed to OPJAIMG.zip....then put it back into your powered off phone and boot into your bootloader.....and see if the file will flash....g

if you are using a card above 32gb it won't work, has tyo be 32gb or smaller(SDHC). 64gb is SDXC.
also you need to boot it into download mode for the phone to pick up the file. if it picks it up you will see an option to press volume up to continue

Not so sure of the entire truth in this. I'm using a 128gb card with no issues. The problem i have is my pc won't recognise it. Otherwise it works as it should.

remove the card from the phone and use an adapter and transfer the file to the card from your computer, if you think this is not true about the size of the card, then you can keep your phone in the state it's in now, up to you. I told you what Jesus told John, The Truth
when youre in recovery mode, just hold the power button and press volume up once. Should get you into recovery

I already stated that my pc cannot see the 128gb card.
How far can you get with the device?. Bootloader? (vol+ & power once), download mode? (vol- & power once) , does it even try?.
Is there any change on your pc when you plug the device into a usb on the motherboard while the device is in either download mode or bootloader? Any noise etc?
Remove htc sync but keep its drivers installed.

You don't have a card reader on your computer?
As I said before if you even get the Ruu on the sd card a 128gb the phone will not pick it up when you boot to download mode, you need 32gb or smaller
your saying after you remove the card from your phone, your computer won't see it? If so then your card reader needs a driver update.

Really.. He told you in the previous post that 128gb cards wont work. You can try it but a lot of people report that it isn't working on cards above 32gb.
Beamed in by telepathy.

That should be 0PJAIMG.zip (first character is ZERO, not the letter O).

I drowned my 5T. Touchscreen doesn't work. I need the files!

I accidentally drowned my phone. It powers up to the point I need to give my password to unlock it. Unfortunately the touch screen is dead. I have ADB installed to my laptop but I don't know how to get access to my files. Any help is so welcome right now, I don't even have a replacement phone.

You could try using your phone with computer mouse and OTG cable.

Your screen works but it doesn't recognize touch, right? If so, you can just enable MTP on your phone with mouse and then connect it to your laptop and access the files from there.
And no, I don't think any mouse require software to work if used with OTG cable.

You can try adb push/pull method though. Haven't done it myself so I can't be much help with that.

Well it used to work, not right now. It vibrates sometimes when I press the power button, so it's not 100% dead yet. So as soon as I connect it via OTG I will have the option to access it? Interesting...

If your phone boots up and you can see your screen working normally except for the touch part, then yes. But if you don't have OTG cable or mouse now and you have to order them, you might want to try those adb commands in link I edited to my previous comment.

I'll try to use the ADB as I don't have an OTG cable. I'll try it now, thank you.
Edit: It won't communicate with the device with 'adb devices'. I guess I'm in trouble...

Oh, that is actually a bad sign. I was wondering if you had your phone decrypted by any chance so you could've just booted into TWRP and copied internal storage to your laptop from there.

I'll just let it dry in rice for a couple of days and will try several stuff again. Ill get back as soon as I have news. Thanks mate.
I do not know how high your geek-level is, but I would recommend booting twrp, decrypt the data partiton with adb and pull the complete data partition to the PC:
1. Get a bootable twrp e.g. fastboot boot twrp-XX.img
2. adb shell twrp decrypt <Password>
3. adb pull /dev/block/dm-0 ./decrypted-data.img
(Credits go to stackoverflow)
If this does not work I would attach an USB Hub after booting into twrp and attach a mouse and a storage device to the hub. (And a keyboard)
