[Q] Help with unrooting w/ broken screen - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I've searched and already found how to unroot and everything, but in my case, I have a broken screen so I can't visually see anything. I'm sending it into HTC but I don't want them realizing its been rooted anyway.
I have changed the bootup T-Mobile screen so there is no annoying sound... I don't know if that might throw them off.
I've tried androidscreencast but it won't load in recovery mode, only in normal mode.
It's running CR_Mod_1.35.531_OTA Full ROM
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Just send it back...I sent my original slide back due to camera being fuzzy and it was rooted with custom bootscreen and rom and nothing happened.. I did the same thing with a G1 years ago

First off, this has nothing to do with android development, it belongs in the Q&A section.
Secondly, you can get into recovery without your touch screen just fine. While your phone is off, hold vol down + power, which will bring you into hboot. Use vol down to highlight recovery, and then press power to select it.
If you do not have s-off, you will see a screen with a !. Press vol up + power, and flash update.zip (assuming you have clockwork update.zip on the root of your sd card), and then proceed to reflash your rom.
If you do have s-off, the hboot recovery option should take you straight into recovery.
WTF I have the same problem! It just ramdomly started yesterday, I touchscreem wouldn't work on opened keyboad and today afternoon I was typing something, after I closed the keyboard the touch screen doesn't work anymore!!!

This should be moved to another thread, Nothing to do with Android development
Ok DO NOT RE-FLASH A NEW ROM if your are in this situation!!!!
because I tried it and still touch planel doesn't work and I was stuck at the setup!!, thank God I recently saved a Nandroid backup, but when i went to ClockworkMod the optical track pad is no longer working neighter!!!
so I couldn't select anything!
I went to cmd on my PC and did adb shell then nandroid restore {location in sdcard}
it restored oh yes!
Optical Track Pad aiin't working neighter touch panel, like this i can hardly make calls with the keyboard, launch apps, but can't handle things that require touch or optical pad.... I can only use Tab button and enter to do little.
Fu...I need to revert everything back to stock adn get my waranty replacement..
why this had to happen?? I haven't done anything these past week :S
This happened to me also I posted my thread in q&a i believe tho, anyways tho my power button stopped working so i couldn't get into recovery. If you need a way to get back to stock without touch screen use the esprimg.zip from the factory rom champion build thread just search for it on xda. after going stock mine was still not working but I was atleast able to do a warranty exchange. hope this helps at all. Oh also this happened to me soon after flashing to CM7.
The same happend to mine a few months ago, your flex ribbon has torn, you have to send it into T-Mobile for an exchange!
Also, wrong forum

Not sure if its the same issue or not. But my screen will become unresponsive and soon after which ever launcher I am using will crash. Also using CM7. Was running nightly build before. Hmmm strange all of a sudden several of our phones started crashing..
You can still slide open and use the physical keyboard to select things...however I would get the stock esprimg on your device as soon as possible. Your ribbon could tear even more and leave you with a black screen and no luck of getting a replacement if you are with a custom rom.

The last thing I did before I also experienced this, was that I tried to get S-Off and couldn't make it, rebooted but everything was fine, and before that I had gave a try to CynogenMod 7.... Days later I was experiencing 20kbps download and later the touch panel failed also the optical pad, so I unrooted before it'd get worst, I got my warranty replacement and now I better send the damaged one back before 7 days, otherwise they charge me $200.

[Q] Help Please! Screen Backwards!

The touch screen on my phone is completely backwards. Like if I touch something on the left side of the screen it will select something on the right side. I already tried factory reseting a couple of times and wiping everything and flashing CM7 again.
I have a HTC G2 running cm7 7.0.3. Just bought the phone off of craigslist but when I was trying it out it was working perfectly until I got home that's when the touch screen became backwards. Can anyone help me please?
Flah your original nandroid see if that fixes it. Or use superwipeG2, flash a different rom, and see if that fixes your issue

[Q] Random Bootloop, Stock but rooted for almost a month

I unlocked and rooted my phone the day I got it on launch day and haven't had any problems until now. My phone randomly turned off and is now stuck in a bootloop. I never installed a custom rom or anything and only rooted to install some root only apps. It just gets to the first screen with Google and the unlocked lock at the bottom and then the google and the lock kind of flicker and move side to side and change colors and then it starts over again.
I'm currently lost, kind of freaking out, and have no idea how to fix this. Any help? Thanks!
Go into fast boot mode and flash stock images.

Tried that, but the phone won't turn on at all. Completely dead. Going to Verizon later today, hopefully for it to be replaced. I don't really understand how this happened...if I was messing around with ROMs I would assume it was my fault, but I haven't been.

[Q] My screen stays black when I turn it on

I recently rooted my GS3 because I had heard many pros of rooting your phone. So I did. A few days after, I decided to mess around with my boot animation and when I rebooted my phone the screen stays black, but everything else comes on i.e my phone vibrates when I get new calls and messages. So, I was wondering if I needed to do a hard reset or something? I currently have CyanogenMod 10 installed and was planning on converting back to the Stock Android ROM. Any tips or advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
Try reflashing the same rom to see if it overwrites the boot animation.

Does the screen ever come on or is it just blank when you boot it up ?

Edit: I flashed the Stock 4.1.1 ROM back on and everything seemed to be working fine until recently. I can't get my phone to connect to the WiFi at my house. It recognizes other networks, but not my home network.

LCD wont work still after replacement

Hello everyone, About 6 months ago I cracked my screen on my phone. I used it for about 3 months after that until the LCD went black. The phone still booted and I can hear notifications coming through, so I figured it was a hardware problem with the LCD. Today I replaced the LCD and it is still just a black screen, and I can hear it booting just fine. I would like to try to restore my phone to factory setting to see if that will help. How can I do so without using the LCD? Does anyone know what other problems this could be? I appreciate the help
It has a custom rom install, I am trying to remember what it is so I can post it on here. I think because its custom I will not be able to use KIES

If you can't even see a boot logo when you first turn it on, restoring factory rom won't help sadly. You have deeper hardware issues then you initially thought ( mainboard possibly or a bad new lcd ).

U can try putting the phone into dl mode by turning it off and holding vol+vol- while plugging it into PC, give it a second and press vol+ then open odin amd see if it connected, if it did flash stock rom with Odin, now just so u know this is a long shot as I doubt it'll help but worth a shot always
