I used the file from Wes in the first post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=713507
Much easier, just put the ESPRIMG.zip onto the root of the SD, reboot into hboot and follow the on-screen instructions.
the file from wes is not being hosted on the website can you upoload please i have to send my mytouch back also
All you have to do is flash the OTA CR posted(not the rooted ver) that will unroot you. plus give you the newer update....No need for that ESP image nonsense.

When I did this, I had to ODIN the stock .tar file back on to fix it. I could still get into download mode, but not CWM
Go here and get ODIN(if you don't already have it)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722686
Go here for your stock ROM(I hope you remember which you were on)
EDIT - you're on a Canadian model, not sure if the stock file is the same as the AT&T version but if it is

When I did it, all my apps and everything was still there, but I had to redo the root and reinstall CWM again.

I just switched over from iOS and found the guides on here were easy to follow and didn't have any issues . Getting the right downloads is probably the key
And what do you mean by "Phone will not fully boot after flashing a rom" How far does it go when booting and what happens?
Just boot screen doesn't fully boot

It is worth the trouble if...
A. You know what you are doing.
B. You read and research.
C. You know how to recover in the event something goes wrong.
Flashing isn't for everyone. Even if you follow directions things can still go wrong in rare situations. That's just the nature of flashing.

[Q] How can I get my device to boot? Stuck on LG bootscreen

So I thought myself fairly competent with roms and such as this is my third smartphone and i've never had that many big errors before.
I used the universal root method and FreeGee and used stock with root for a few weeks, was good. Today I downloaded the CM 10.1 unofficial rom and the gapps and did a TWRP backup. I tried to copy it from my phone to my PC and USB HD using both Linux and Windows. Whenever it got to the data part it would error, I couldn't even rename it. As far as I know, this backup may be no good. I did this backup three full times, eventually using just boot, system and data.
I wiped data, system, cache and dalvik. I installed the CM10.1 rom and tried to boot. sticks on the LG boot screen. I can get into the recovery, tried to do the restore, said successful. Still sticks on the boot screen for LG.
Did I miss some step? At this point I'd be glad going back to stock.
Can you boot to download mode?

I'm not sure where that is. Can you provide a link? Also I can get into Recovery/twrp. I am frustrated that CM won't install for me. I checked my TWRP backup folder, there is just data and system, and I need boot to restore that, right? So frustrated that the backup is bunk and CM won't install properly. I can't find any clear instructions on the process anywhere on the forums. Just wipe, install CM and then boot, right?

There's a search function for a reason and the devs on here don't have time to just hold your hand and walk you through everything you have to be willing to help yourself and learn how to do things on your own and then if you have a problem or run into trouble then ask for assistance but don't ask to have your hand held through it all.. Learn about what Odin is and stock roms And a few other things in order to accomplish a downgrade..

The search function doesn't tell me what you tried to do.. I already wrote a tutorial on how to downgrade successfully. Since I don't know what you've tried so far there's nothing I can do right now to help you.

Here you go.. Make sure you substitute the Verizon firmware for the AT&T firmware as @TechNyne66 said, the OGG firmware.. As long as it's firmware from AT&T you should be good to go.. However if it still errors out and doesn't work that means they (AT&T) have blocked it and you'll have to enter into recovery and select full system restore in order to fix it and get it back to where it is right now.. I'd first make a backup if I were you!!

Use PB2 ODIN file. It's the best 5.1.1 firmware.
I did it using only ap and csc files

If you are past the the PH4 update this is not the thread for you.
If you are still on PH4, stop trying to downgrade your bootloader, unless you are flashing a Binary 3 bootloader.
All of this has been explained within this forum. Check my profile and go to my posts. I've already wrote it all up two or three times...

upgrading from 4.4.4

so, a colleague got this phone from ebay and it works just fine, but its on 4.4.4. I usually go to sammobile.com/firmwares to get my tar.md5's for flashing in Odin, but this model doesnt have anything listed on there. I know that the upgrade process is sequential from other posts, but i dont have a link for the 5.0 tarball to flash the upgrade. Anyone got a androidfilehost link with it?
