MT3G Fender w/ wrong bootloader!! No skateboarding androids!! PLZ HELP!!!!

Let me explain to you the whole story. I obviously know im going to get flamed for this one. I will give you the short short version
I had a rooted MT3G fender with this Rom installed
http:/forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669911
It worked all good until i started messing with stuff. I wanted this rom installed
http:/forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673394
Since it said 32a and MT3G fender is 32a i assumed that it will install and no problems. So i used the gold card to change radio and spl to the 3.22 series. only to find out that they dont work for my phone. based on this post
"You are now screwed with a downgraded SPL and radio that do not work on this phone YAAAAAAY." -crypysmoker-
[THUNK AND FIXED] Rooting Mytouch Fender LE 32a/ Mytouch 1.2 DONT!!
http:/forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622530
So now im thinking great i didnt catch that so let me just move back to where i was before. using the last section of that previous thread to install the stock radio and spl. i have done this already and know it works. so i install the stock radio and spl and the custom recovery. Boot up into recovery and restore nandroid. everything is going ok utill.....it locks up in a boot loop. i then boot back up into recovery and erase data. after that i tryed another nandroid restore and to my wonderful surprise i now lost the ability to mount the sdcard. i restarted and tryed many different cards and all failed. I then boot up into hboot restore with the goldcard and it then locks up at system.
Great now im looking for something to fix this whole mess. after that i try to reinstall the original spl and radio. I then have an error "signature verify failed." Now im thinking WTF!!!!!
I then find a thread about the RUU and how to turn off "S-on" if i install this official HTC app. However come to find out its the asia version. WONDERFUL FOR ME!!! I then found the Official T-mobile MT3G RUU, installed it and now i have a fastboot installed with a memchip with a red circle around it, not the 3 skate droids, and cant boot into HBOOT ,with the volume down button. All that i see is "RUU USB." I have adb but now get the error "remote not allowed." it used to be "signature verify failed." i have no recovery, no HBOOT, just fast boot with RUU USB.
How to i fix this mess up and get back to this?

This is definitely a snowball effect right here.
Oh also i cant go and exchange the MT3g fender because im past my 14 days and i already did it on the first day. LOL
I actually am stuck on the same screen with the same phone. I hope someone has been able to get this fixed
Damn, not trying to be mean, but you screwed up a lot.
I have the same version device as you, and I upgraded my radio/SPL. and did a lot of stuff, i semi-bricked it, but i got it working again. I suggest you re-root your whole entire phone. including flashing all the radios, spl,recovery, and etc.
Try following this theunlockr[DOT]com/2010/03/11/how-to-root-the-mytouch-1-2-and-fender-mytouch/
The problem is that the phone is stuck in a bit of an interesting state. You can't flash from an RUU at this point because the engineering SPL used to root the phone is version 2.53.x, while the RUU's ROM is 2.10.x. You also cannot flash any images to the phone because the SPL is locked (S-ON). So the only way to fix the phone at this point would be to somehow get an HTC-signed 2.53+ ROM for the SAPP31000 (mytouch 3g 1.2/fender) or find a way to unlock the SPL. I had a nice chat with some of the Modaco guys and we went through a lot of options with none of them working. The phone's basically in a bit of a chicken vs. egg state. So personally, I will be building a serial cable to manually unlock the SPL so that I can flash images back on manually.
So, while I wish it was as easy as just re-flashing the phone, you can't do that with a locked SPL and no HBOOT mode available. Onward to a serial/TTL cable advendure!
Once I get the parts in to build it, I'll follow up here with my results

[Q] I want to put another rom and i dont know how

I have a HTC desire hd I want want to change rom to android revolution hd, I followed all the possible tutorials here, and I got all done until the recovery mode. I installed Rom Manager and the ClockWork Mod, but I cant get into recovery mode, i get the phone and the ! sign all the time, i reinstalled clockwork mod and reinstalled the rom manager, and nothing, all the time this problem.
I got permanroot with visionary, and it works.
Please help.
Thanks
Do you have S-OFF?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
i tried to do it, but i find some many guides about that, and i read that this can brick my dhd, so I didnt do it.
is it necessary?
Yep, you need it. Use my radio S-OFF tool, it is easy as pie. Nobody has bricked a DHD using my tool yet, the possibility of bricking is basically zero. You can find a link in my signature.
and how do i check that i have s-off??
i have done this s-off, but my phone is on the initial booting logo, htc and after the vodafone animation, and it is going over and over again.
thanks people for help. i had this that press vol - and power and you get into advance settings, then factory reset, then again root, and now is working.
thanks
solved
check my guide. regarding the ! sign, did you use "Flash clockworkmod recovery" BEFORE tapping on "reboot into recovery"?
I had that problem too but then I did s-off and clockworkmod worked. Now I need radio s-off , and I need help with choosing right radio to flash.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
You need to have the radio which comes with the 1.32 you have installed.
Then use the Easy Radio tool v2.2 to make the Radio S-Off
Then you can flash the radio you need (the recommended one for the rom you are going to install) using fastboot (some tutorials there).
Hy, need some help please!
I rooted my phone, and do the s-off, and install custom rom. but what is eng s-off?
when I go to boot i have " ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF"
Do I have to make eng s-off or what or can I use my phone like that?
tnx
I'm sure if you have a little look on the forums you'll get the answer you're looking for...

ENG S-OFF is not essential, unless you want to flash a new radio although it is recommended to have it. Look in the Dev section, there is a very good tool to use.

You are rooted and can flash whatever you want from what you described. Getting s-off is different. Please click my name and see the links thread I started, it has links to both s-off methods for heroc. It unlocks your bootloader, go read about it. Again, you don't really need it, but it's kinda cool.

[Q] HTC Evo 3d (GSM) Stuck in boot loop D:

Hello, I am new to XDA so if I am supposed to +1 you or what ever it's called, just please tell me how?
OK, on with the topic. So recently my Evo 3d came in the mail, and since I've owned it before, I decided to root it cuz i really like custom roms. So I unlocked the bootloader, and installed a custom recovery, which was called NegaLite-BluRom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745093
So I flashed it, and it worked, but... since there was in error in the Rom, which didn't allow me to enable WiFi or 4g data, I decided to flash ANOTHER recovery. But, since I was so exited, I forgot to make a backup, which was pretty stupid of me. So I just went ahead, trying to flash another rom, and now I'm stuck in a boot loop. Can anyone please help me? I just need to know how to get out of this bootloop so i can start using my phone again. :crying: I've been up for hours trying to find out how to fix it but no luck Thanks in advance! And here are my device details as shown in Bootloader:
*** UNLOCKED ***
SHOOTER XC SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.50.0000
eMMC-boot
