So this guy came to me with a MT that would turn on show the boot logo then after saying Virgin Mobile it just died.It wasn't rooted or anything so clean stock ROM.I thought either battery was shot or the processor was messing up cause I know if you overclock it too much that it will boot cycle.So I put in my charged battery and same issue.So I tried to go into polling mode to flash CWM recovery so I could save the guy's data and info but it wouldn't let me.So I tried to go into the stock recovery and same thing....a no go.
So after some time I tried it again (3 hrs later) and some how I got it to go into polling.So I went to flash the CWM recovery image to the phone next thing I know it freezes the overwrite then ALL the files on the phone disappeared.I was like WTF so I tried again after pulling the battery.I then noticed a read me file on the Mobile drive of the phone that has the splash.img and recovery.img.I scanned the file and it was a virus.So I deleted and was able to flash CWM no problem.I booted the phone and it came on.I unlocked the phone and when I went to check the apps and such on the phone the phone froze then shut off.
So then I was like I need to wipe this ROM cause there must be more viruses on the phone.So I go to CWM and for some reason I got the battery charging image when the phone is off and around the battery was a red circle.I didn't have the phone plugged up but showed as if I did with the battery moving up and down like on a charger.This was so weird.So I went to re-flash CWM and the read me file was back on there.So I deleted it again and flashed CWM no problem.
Now here is where things got crazy.I get into CWM easy and go to make a nandroid back up so I can save guy's stuff but then scan the back up with ESET.It was working then when it got to data it gave me an error code.I was like f it I'm wiping the data and reseting the phone.I go to do it then when it gets to data it freezes then shuts off.Everytime after that when I went into CWM I would get error can't mount system error can't mount SD card error can't mount data.I did all I could....tried to flash my nandroid back up and when it got to data it stopped half way thru saying can not complete.
So I went back to polling to erase and use my files I saved from my phone in the MT image file.When I went to delete I bricked the phone.lol.Now I can't turn it on or anything.This was a trial and error on the deleting of the files in the image file of the phone.:musicus:
