I bought an alcatel tru from metro on Monday and a couple hours after I got it, it got stuck in a boot loop where it says starting apps/optimizing apps/finishing boot. I think it was from an unsuccessful root but I'm not completely sure. I have tried resetting it to factory and clearing the cache. It hasn't worked so far and my plan for the month is going to go to waste if i don't fix it.
I can't use any programs on my computer with the phone at the moment because I cant find the right drivers, and USB debugging is off. If anybody can help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I don't know a lot about android but I know how to follow directions. So if anyone can help please do

Make sure that you have the drivers from HTC Sync on your PC and also make sure that usb debugging is turned on.
Not sure if that will help, but I just used fresh kitchen to root a friends phone and it worked perfect.

htc sync installed and debugging on , the pretest on the help page seems to pass and says that it sees a valid adb device, other programs can see the phone and access it with out trouble. Not sure what exactly is going on might be I am in a virtual pc enviroment and attached the andriod phone device in the virtual pc enviroment I just flashed a friends to 2.1 offical did not have a problem with it but I am just not sure about what to do now.
My milestone(Telus; BL 90.74) is pretty much bricked. I tried to do this, but like with everything else I do modding wise I failed horribly. It got to the point to where whenever I tried turning on my phone, it would stay frozen on the M logo. I've wasted my entire day searching from blogs to forums to videos trying to fix this but nothing worked. And now my phone won't even turn on unless I access the bootloader menu.
I know I have to reflash the sbf file, but the thing is my computer no longer detects my phone since the disaster. I'm really frustrated and stressed because of this. I thought doing a factory reset would do something but now all of my data on the phone is gone for nothing.
Can anyone please help? I know there's like 7 threads on this, but none of them help even if I follow the instructions step by step.
have made a backup? to open recovery?

No, I haven't made a backup yet. I haven't accessed openrecovery either, the guide gave me a headache.

I could try that by putting an official update.zip so the boot loader will accept. Problem is there isn't any updates further to what I have and froyo womn't come anytime soon unless you were referring to something else.

Let me try this. I'm going to bed for now, Ill post results tomorrow.
You can try installing your usb drivers again and try.Since you did not get any error in the bootloader mode, it could be problems with your usb drivers.
Uninstall the usb drivers and reinstall them again. Then try.
BTW, which version of rsdlite are you using?
Helo
Maybe tray this:
- Download an RSD Lite (I use 4.7)
- Download an GOT firmware from: and-developers.com / sbf:milestone (bottom of site)
- Set the phone to bootloader mode
- Start RSD Lite with Administrator permissions
- Connect the phone
- Select the downloaded sbf file
- When U see phone connected click Start
Sorry for my english

Ok, I did everything you said and flashed it with A853_Telus_Firmware_SHOLS_U2_03.10.0__USASHLSMR2TLSB1B2B505F.0R_1FF.sbf. But now it still gets stuck at the moto sign
Edit: I think I might have a solution as I flashed the phone with vulnerable_recovery_only_RAMDLD90_78.sbf which will let me use an update.zip. The only problem is I can't access my memory card and I don't have anything that could at home.
Edit: Ok, I fixed my phone and now it has 2.2.1. Thanks guys, I appreciate the help.
hi everyone. i've been following the forum here for awhile and finally decided to root my brand new NC. i autorooted from 1.1. i saw some things weren't working so i quickly decided to unroot back to factory settings. i unrooted by unregistering the device and turning off the power 8 times. my NC boots up fine, but it gets stuck on the "Registering your Device" page and just remains there with the circle spinning. i think i left it there for more than 30 minutes and nothing happens. has anyone experienced this before? if so, how did you fix it? any help would be appreciated.
sorry if this topic has already been asked - i tried searching but didn't find anything on this specific issue. if there's already a thread, please feel free to share the link with me. thank you!
EDIT: really need some help here... i tried to fix it myself (i know i shouldn't have) and might have made it even worse. i tried to re-autoroot my NC but just completely failed. it was not loading anything anymore, so i tried to unroot again by powering off 8 times. when i restarted, everything looked normal, except the bootloader screen was not stock. it brought me back through the normal tutorial and same thing with it getting stuck on "registering your device". could someone please provide a thorough walkthrough on how to reset to factory settings? i'm seeing all these threads throwing around all these acronyms that i don't understand. seems like i need to try running some clockwork rom but not even sure how to do that. please help!!
Bump, i have just encountered this problem and i need help as well.
Update:
actually just figured it out and heres what fixed my problem, i wasn't doing the factory reset part only the 8 reboot interruptions.

Thanks for your post, even though no one ever helped. I was having the same problem and doing a clear data/factory reset from Clockwork Recover booted from an SD card did the trick for me.
Hello everyone. I'm having a problem I'm REALLY hopeing someone can help me with. I've started having some problems with my phone recently and one of them is getting a "USB Device Malfunctioned" when connecting to a PC. I've tried it on 3 PCs, so I'm pretty sure it's not a PC driver issue.
I'd simply try to get it replaced, except that I've rooted the phone and am afraid of having a warranty issue. The phone is otherwise stock 2.2 - no custom rom.
I'm hoping that someone can either help me resolve my USB issue, or point me to a way to unroot without having to connect to the computer. I'd also be open to a custom rom if it would fix my issues (I'm also having a problem where the touch screen goes unresonsive).
Is did find this thread, but I'm not understanding what all the steps mean: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1009658
I'm starting to panic....any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
One FACTORY RESET .
jje
Sorry, should have mentioned that I already did that this weekend in an attempt to fix the touchscreen issues. This was before I even knew I had the USB issue.
At least I did the "factory data reset" in settings. I didn't do the power - volume key method, but from what I could tell it did the same thing.
Try flash this script own your recovery...
Safe
i just change the wrong and not match script usb mounting

You can do this: - lock bootloader
- power on device
- enable adb debugging on device
- make sure you have adb and fasboot working corectly
- connect device via usb to PC
- run RUU with administrator rights
- and from there on just follow the instructions given by software

you really need the 2-4 lines i mentioned up for this to work
Well I managed to lock my bootloader and that, but when i tried to install the RUU it gave me a error. I think it might be an older version.
I think I'm going to need the 2.00.771.3 version :S
I think my phone is useless now. A bit of info, I tried factory resetting my phone (I have rooted my phone prior to this and stupidly thought that factory reset would get rid of the root) but when I reset my phone after the inital setup had gone through all menus it said setup has stopped working. Then my phone wouldn't work no apps or home screen, I could recieve calls and then go onto my settings at the top but nothing more then that, I'm not sure how I can get my phone working again now lol
