This guy has made 5 posts in the AT&T S4 forum for this. He ignores what he was told and just makes another post for the same thing. If you look at his info (unless he changed it) he is listed as "T-Mobile".

You've been given the answer, bro, and it's that you cannot install a custom recovery because you upgraded to MF3. Game over, man, game over!

Thank you!!

Not that you care, but this is directly from the XDA rules that you agreed to but obviously did not read...
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.
-and-
5. Post a message only once.
As a large forum we don't need unnecessary clutter, You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time, it might take a while before you receive an answer.
In your case you got a couple of good answers (maybe not the answers you wanted, but still accurate) and you decided to ignore them.

Who assigned you as the snitch. I started reading his threads since I keep seeing you constantly spamming every single one. From what I've read he's currently making progress. He managed to get his phone to boot after what seemed like a brick on mf3 firmware which I'm curious how he did that. You see I found something interesting and what seems can be useful for others who soft bricked their phones with mf3 stock from the information he provided. But you, I see you as that one causing the annoyance and lack of progress to help some one who has been reading and has been trying to figure out a way to fix his problem.

Regardless scott was just following and enforcing forum rules...which is a good thing. If the op wants he can create a new thread explaining how he got his device to boot back up...but from what ive read he never really bricked it...just messed up hus recovery so he couldnt enter stock recovery anymore...could still boot up but bootimg recovery sent him to download mode.
Now calling someone on here a snitch for enforcing forum rules is not ok, if you have a problem with the way hes doing things than let him no through pm or contact a mod if needed for further assistance with the issue...a mod can than evalute the problem and decide what needs to be done lock thread/delete posts/leave alone
Lets try and make xda a nice friendly environment...even if somebody annoys you or does something you dont like...

What he meant was which errors are you getting? The E:\ can't mount? Are you trying to revert back just the gfree? What are you doing? We need more information as your original post is very vague.

The only way to fix it is if you ALREADY have the engineering spl. If you do, you need to fastboot flash clockworkmod 2.x.x and fix the catches. If you don't, at least for the moment, the phone is no longer going to work and basically equals a brick.

For one for now its soft-brick. Second is only way he can push the CWMR2.x if the recovery partition is not also corrupted at that point if that does happen keep in mind it won't even bootup. Best way to check this is by placing the PD15IMG.zip on root of your sdcard and see if it works. If you get fail-pu for now the game is over and I repeat you CAN'T recover from it using push recovery in that case you will brick it completely and won't even power up. I need to do more testing when I get another MT4G as I did push the recovery.img and reverted back from e:\ can't mount before during testing.

Post it here go. I "hack" the emmc chips you read it. I bet $100 if you lookup almost all fail-pu based threads if I was on at that time I posted it on the thread. Do NOT try to give people wrong information unless you have NOT yet done anything that would jeopardize their device.

Don't need to look in my post history, you will see where me and a few others troubleshooted this prob months ago. Aren't you new to this forum? I looked in your post history, all you really do is bewilder people. Something tells me you were already banned from xda before
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
You can't post it because it does NOT exist and I am the ONLY guy in this whole MT4G section who actually hacked the emmc to find the solution, look at my Avatar. Name me the person who successfully recovered from it? You telling me you know more than I do? Have you even accessed the emmc?
"you will see where me and a few others troubleshooted this prob months ago."
lol that specially made me laugh since the oldest post regarding this issue the thread has me on it. You basically ran though my older posts and saw my recovery.img push along with flashing cwmr2.x from terminal as I posted the howto regarding it. Also the reason I was banned was due to the whole emmc issue in first place which you can find it CM7NB thread. Like I said we would be in better place right now if they didn't ban me then.

If what you claim is true then why don't you make a guide a successfully fix 99% of the bricks on this forum? I remember you now, its funny if what you claim worked you would think somebody else would have figured it out or something. Also, why ban you for helping out the forum.

1) Look in my Avatar.
2) Search for all threads related to fail-pu.
3) Go to it via Tapatalk.
4) Compare the Avatar.
Now if you could read half as you claimed to fix someones issue you would know who I am and why I am back on XDA and the reason I am back is to find the solution. But since you didn't actually read anything to begin with the point is moot. You "claimed" you helped someone on a thread which you can't post. Now you claiming someone else found the solution lol. Ill just let you do the search and see who is even posted regarding this. I grantee you not a single person who is talking about fail-pu was even in any of those threads period.
PS: I am actually waiting for another MT4G so I can hack it. Which is almost posted in every post since today. But then again since you didn't read you wouldn't know this as I only posted in threads regarding fail-pu to begin with. Its for morons like you that I get banned when I try to help the community and I get an uneducated idiot like you coming here don't have a clue on what you read or who you read from. Remember my avatar from now on I grantee you if anything intelligent was said would be coming from it. Do a single search on it and compare it.
UPDATE:
I am sorry folks but this kid pushed me with his babbling. Since I am the only one who been doing this since he even knew what failed partition update was till last week. If he thought we had a solution it would already be posted it won't be a moot point. lol he says why I didn't make a thread. I got banned for talking about emmc hack in first place yet he wants me to make a thread about it. What I am saying can be verified by looking at the threads not by pretending he saved someone to begin with.
Lol whatever you claim dude. I'm on a cell phone nor do I care about your thoughts. No wonder they banned you, your a dueche. I hope they do it again! Don't get me wrong, you seem intelligent and all but no one needs your God complex like attitude.
When I get home ill post you the thread where I helped troubleshoot (not solve) the answer I posted for the OP. However, until you write your so called guide I am right.
Update: His so called fix got him banned but yet he gives me a hard time for posting the only known fix at the moment. Question is, what does his "fix" do that gets him banned?

Did you read anything I said? How about this if your attempt fails and he bricks his device you pay for it. If you agree to those terms he will attempt your so called solution which you will find me say it on the oldest threads to begin with. If you agree and you must say YOU WILL PAY FOR IT. So he can send XDA email and obtain your info to file claim as you pay for the cost of the device. Am I getting though to you? The oldest post regarding this has me on it, almost all post regarding this has me on it if I was on at the time which can be verified though my avatar. Do you understand I was banned for this whole emmc fiasco to begin with? I would love to know other than suggesting putting PD15IMG.zip and pushing the recovery.img on mmcblk what other thing you offer atm. Which if you google.com under XDA narrow it down to MT4G you will see me post it. lol your trying to argue with the ONLY guy who was doing research regarding the emmc issue since 3-4months now. I want to so see that post where that guy recovered so I can send him a PM and have him post in here saying it didn't work and likly he bricked his device to the point it didn't turn on and he sent it to HTC for warranty replacement. Now I understand you wouldn't recognize me but my avatar been in this forum longer than you owned a device.
Dude I am not arguing with, your arguing with me. Lets say he did do what I said and it failed. His device was already done so there would be no difference. So far to date the only fix is yours and nobody but you knows it. What's weird is that it got you banned. So explain to me how I am WRONG?
1.Nobody knows your method.
2. The only known way to recover from the op's problem is what I said.

My question was in no way meant to be sarcastic or demeaning.
It was meant to get two questions answered. A) if you had seen the thread and/or at least glimpsed the thread and b) if you had attempted to understand the topic at hand or just take a shortcut and have people do the legwork for you.
That is all I was trying to find out, and depending on the answer to my post, then decide on where to start you off at.

[Q] is it possible to flash cwm on the a500?

I downloaded rom manager but is it possible to flash clockwork mod recovery? When I check I only see one acer listed and I am not sure if it would be compatible.

Use acer recovery installer from the market. The A500 is not supported by rom manager.

This is the only tool you need to root and gain an unlocked bootloader.

Download the advanced ace hack kit and read its manual. Don't use HTCDEV to unlock your bootloader that will only give you problems later.

During setup, SuperSU was one of the choices, then there was another with a similar name (I forget what the other option was at the moment.)
That is, assuming I understand your question correctly.
2 exploits that were available did not work. There was even some hesitancy to install it in the first place because an alert said Google recommends you don't install this because it contains suspicious code (not in those words, but you know what I mean.) I went ahead with installation because I didn't hear any negative talk about it after a little searching through the internet.
Questions go in the q&a forum, report your own post and ask a moderator to move it.
Instead of taking the chance of bricking your phone, why not follow the routing guide in the sticky thread?
