I bought a refurbished phone on Craigslist and there are fingerprints on the inside of the glass (I don't know why I never saw them when I was inspecting). Would like to teardown guide so I can go clean those prints off.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeremyNT:
Lil bit of thread necromancy here, but did anybody ever find a teardown? I'm thinking of ripping mine open due to my backlight issue ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=958033 ). I guess if nobody else has a teardown, I'll have to brave the waters and post my own, but going in blind is going to increase the risk of me killing the thing even worse than it already is :(

I'm also preparing to replace my digitizer. I came across a couple recent tear-down videos:

Good luck!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sporksmith:
Phew. Just replaced my digitizer using the latter video. Putting it back together was fairly straight-forward by just following the video backwards, though a 'put back together' video would be convenient.

A couple minor caveats:

They skipped showing some phillips screws holding the motherboard in place (near the end). I think there were two of them. They're fairly obvious if you know to look for them.

I attempted to reuse the existing adhesive by reheating and applying pressure. This sort of worked, but the digitizer seems a tad loose. I don't think it's going to fall off, but it'd probably be better to remove the old adhesive and apply some fresh adhesive. Anyone know where to get a suitable adhesive?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCLiteratesJax:
Taking apart the MyTouch 4G is not that hard :)

I bought a used MyTouch 4G in pieces on Craigslist for $ 45 that had a broken digitizer (about $ 20 on eBay with free shipping) and LCD (about $ 40 on eBay with free shipping) and the Audio & Volume Button Flex Cable (about $ 38 on eBay with free shipping) was also defective (the power button cable was ripped which can happen very easily if you take the phone apart and if you are not 100% careful when you pry the power button cable out). I ordered all the replacement parts on eBay from US sellers.

This particular phone had the "bad", washed out screen and was manufactured in Taiwan. When I ordered the replacement LCD and digitizer, I was hoping to get the "good", bright and superior screen but that didn't happen. So for the ones out there who are hoping to improve the screen by replacing the LCD and/or digitizer, it's a 50/50 shot.

I also ran into the problem with the adhesive and found a roll of 3M 2mm double sided tape for $ 10 with free shipping on eBay. The phone is working great and looks like nothing ever happened now after I put it all back together. And even though I had to pay for a lot of replacement parts, it was still a lot cheaper than buying a new one from T-Mobile or a used one on Craigslist or eBay :)

There are also a lot of MyTouch 4G disassembly videos on youtube. I'm a gal and if I can do it, you can too !! :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
So I am moving onto a new phone so I will not be supporting this thread anymore. Please help each other the best you can. Also if anyone wants to take over and support this thread feel free. Last but not least if anyone wants to use any of the items I put into this also feel free. Remember that android is made possible with contrbutions from viewers like you!

Check out my new guide its much easier and automated now!!

Sorry but I no longer have the files that were in the zip as my laptop that they were on no longer has a charger so I really don't have a way to pull them off until I come up with extra funds to buy a charger for that dinosaur!

I have updated the commands so everything will be working correctly.

Please note this a guide to unrooting your device and returning it to stock, if you have nothing stock and didn't back anything up i.e. modded rom, changed recovery, eng. bootloader.

If you didn't follow the ultimate guide then you will not need to follow steps 1-7. Just follow from 8 on.

Also keep in mind this was created assuming you followed the ultimate guide to permaroot turning radio s=off and changing cid thus unlocking phone.

I am not responsible for any damage to your phone blah blah blah.

Also if I am incorrect in any of these steps someone please let me know.

Also this is just a guide that I wrote using all the others. Please thank and donate to grankin01 for providing the original guide and also thank/donate to tiger013 for providing a stock nandroid. Also thank Football for providing new rom.

With that said here we go:

Download the PD15IMG file and rename it to PD15IMG.zip

1. Copy PD15IMG.zip and "part7backup-whatevernuberitscalled.bin" to the root of your sdcard

2. Connect your phone to your computer and navigate to your sdk folder then type adb push gfree /data/local

3. Open up terminal emulator or adb shell and type "su" press enter to get root privileges.

4. Type "cd /data/local" and hit enter

5. Type "chmod 777 gfree" and hit enter to make the program executable.

6. Now type "./gfree -f" press enter to run gfree again. It will disable wp on the emmc and remove the brq filter in the kernel. (as well as make another backup. delete this)

7. Now run the "dd if=/sdcard/part7backup-whatevernumberitscalled.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7" and it should show the output:

xxxx bytes in

xxxxbytes out

xxxxxxxxxx copied in xxxxxxxxxxx

8. Run "sync" and then reboot.

9. Let phone load then boot into bootloader again by holding volume down and pressing power

10. Let it load image and select yes to update.

11. Let it do its work it will reboot once this is normal.

And that should be it. Enjoy stock rom.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] krazy_smokezalot:
Great job! I un-rooted worked fine! Then I re-rooted worked fine also!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bobsbbq:
I assume this will not work if you have made a backup with clockwork? Also your instructions say apply nandroid backup, but there is no option in recovery for appy nandroid backup. There are options to update from update.zip and another one from a zip file. The folder inside you unroot package is not a zip file?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
Well like I said this was done using no backups made.

Under clockworks recovery theres an option for backups and restore - this is the nandroid restore.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] vw671:
where does the "part7backup-whatevernuberitscalled.bin" file in step 11 come from?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
Its the file that was created when you followed the ultimate guide for permaroot
[myTouch 4G Android Development] vw671:
What if you don't have that file? Can you skip that step?

thanks.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
I'm sure you can but you won't have true stock. I could also upload my copy but I'm not positive if it will work for your phone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mountainboy:
This is awesome! I'm getting a replacement mt4g in the mail soon, now I will be able to send my existing phone back 'unrooted'. Thank you!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] topgun303:
Is this unroot like out of the box type deal. So that i can get future ota updates. I used ultimate guide to perm root. I am using stock rom. I am notsure if i should just do unroot.zip to unroot for future ota updates.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
If performed correctly is should take you back to out of the box stock.

(in theory)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hawaiian.monzta:
I'm guessing you can't do this strictly from terminal emulator?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
You may be able to but I don't know how nor do I care to figure it out. If someone wants to write instructions pm me them and I'll post them in the op
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
A guide for terminal emulator would be welcome.

I did S=off with it (plus radio) with root explorer and terminal emulator only. It was much easier and quicker.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
You could pm me the steps and I'll gladly post them in the op
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mrpanic7:
quick question, does following this take you back to factory ROM? for exampe im on iced glacier 1.1.1, will it take me to factory ROM?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
Yes it will hence stock
[myTouch 4G Android Development] iblaststatic2020:
so...?

I put the nandroid file on my sdcard, but in recovery when i go to restore there it says no files. What do I need to do to get this to work. I have a replacement coming to me so I need to figure this out.

Edit: Sorry I'm an idiot. I got it know. Thank you so much for posting this.

Edit2: Crap! Ok I have s=on now but i still have hboot 0.86.0000 Shouldn't I have the old one now?

[Fascinate General] palisoulja1:
hey guys, I had a problem where I tried to flash the android 2.2 for the epic 4g to my samsung mesmerize, I know stupid move, I bricked my phone.

I was able to get the phone back on by using the guides using odin restore files that can be found here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=782204

I flashed my phone and turned it into a fascinate however I hated it and I figured I have the backup for my memserize let me see what I can do with it. After I followed ALL the steps in the thread above and I had my phone back on with fascinate software I rooted my phone and installed rom manager onto my phone, installed cwm and rebooted my phone into recovery. Once in recovery I restored my phone with the backup of the stock mesmerize I had made, everything went through and the phone reboot, however when it turned back on it was stuck on the samsung screen.

I couldnt get the phone to get past the samsung screen, so I took out the battery, connected my phone to my computer and put the battery back in and held the volume down button to put the phone in download mode.

I used odin to install the uscc kernel I found online, I dont remember where I got it from but I will post the link for it as soon as it is done uploading to dropbox,once it was done installing the kernel my phone reset and it turned back on with the us cellular splash screen and I was back in business with my mesemrize as a mesmerize. I hope this helps anyone who ends up going down the same path I did or wants to install the fascinate roms on their phone becasue you can always revert to mesmerize. I installed the uscellular mesmerize so what I did was I had a backup of my stock us cellular samsung mesmerize backup that I had made with rom manager

Also I dont havent gotten a chance to try going from my stock mesmerize back to the fascinate firmware, I hope this helps those who are on the fascinate firmware and want to go to the mesmerize or for those who want to play around with their phone but are afraid of bricking it!

Enjoy

uscc i500 kernel-http://db.tt/LDbvo2U

Thanks goes out to all the devs and people who posted on these forums to help me get back to my stock mesmerize, sorry if I didnt give credit for the kernel I just dont remember where I found out, also I cant upload the stock uscc backup image of the mesmerize because the files to big and my internets being extremly slow, however I believe it's floating around xda somewhere.
[Fascinate General] PhoenixPath:
So do the phones share the same modem.bin then?

It would seem that a fascinate could take this route as well?
[Fascinate General] iwasaperson:
we already have a vzw modem.bin for both di01 and dj05. so if you want to make vzw fascinate a mezmerize, I would do a nandroid and flash a mezmerize system partition.

I am using chrome lite for surfing on the net and have Froyo on my phone, there was a bug observed a couple of minutes back.

In the google image search I searched for "lamborghini (for eg)"

From the results I selected one of the pictures.

Which shows enlarged picture with "Original size" icon over the picture.

When I selected the same, the icon was NOT HIGHLIGHTED (Instead the "back to search results was highlighted), but though the original sized picture was opened.

I tried to check in other pictures too but the same thing was found.

Hi all,

i am using the htc weather app but i am not very afraid with it because the weather datas of accue weather are very unexact.

I prefere wetter.com datas so I consider if it is possible to get wetter.com instead accue weather at HTC tab.

Do anybody have an idea if this is possible?

If not, do anybody know a possibility to get the g-weather tool to the manila slide tabs?

thx ahead

[HD Mini General] bart3385:
HTC weather app is a tremendous resource hog. Takes up somewhere around 10mb when running. Also not intuitive. It's a "dumb" type of app.

I would advice anyone to turn off this tab. And use some online weather site instead. Or maybe install something else.
[HD Mini General] takaiccc:
Anyone know how to remove the weather link on home wallpaper?

(one in red circle)
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
Disable weather tab. Don't update weather. After a while, the weather graphics will eventually disappear. Only your location will be left in that area of the home screen.

This is good for stock home screen. I don't know if custom ROM or custom home screen works the same way.
[HD Mini General] gabbana-music:

[HTC Aria General] SectorNine50:
If I recall correctly, most phones you get from insurance are refurbs, but they should have a warranty on them.

Anyway, try wiping the phone, then reflashing the stock rom. It will un-root the phone and convert it back to how it came from factory. If that doesn't work, then I'd give insurance another call, could be a faulty unit.
