  • Is there a link to very clear installation instructions for me to install the 'virtuous unity (v-2.39.0.zip) rom' on to the My Touch 4G?

    My MT4G seems to be acting crazy and HTC CSR suggested loading a new rom.

    Since the phone is no longer supported by HTC any more it was suggested by the HTC CSR on the phone I find a suitable rom and install it my self.

    T Mobile store guy (a nice guy at that!) could not reboot using a special T Mobile sd card made to reboot this phone, so I must do it myself.

    When I attempt to completely reboot the phone (down volume> press power button> scrool to reboot, hit reboot) stuff happens, all apps still appear, even those I have manually uninstalled. 

    If I do reboot from inside the phone : Settings: Phone and SD card: Reboot, ... same thing, all apps appear and messages come up that indicate I am best to wipe the phone and start from scratch with a clean and new functioning ROM. I discovered Virtuous Unity ROM in my research.

    So a new ROM may in fact be in order.

    I replaced the battery also.  And this helps a bit.

    I am ready to start afresh. 

    I am new at this ROM procedure, never before rooted a phone or loaded a new rom onto a phone.

    I also need to know how to make my phone (MT4G) ready to be rooted with the

     

    Virtuous_unity-2.39.0.zip 

    I also have downloaded the following:

    CoreDroid_EXT4_Format_utility -DS
    FULL_WIPE_1.5_EXT4_DS
    RUU_Glacier_hboot_0.89.0007

    A step by step walk through will be greatly appreciated from turning on my MT4G to completion.

    Please assume I know nothing.

    Am starting with a phone with the following:
    Android Version: 2.3.4
    HTC Sense 2.1
    Software 2.32.532.1

    Please let me know as detailed as possible what to do.

    I downloaded the virtuous _unity.zip, 450MB, file and the other listed files onto my PC and am awaiting direction. 

    I have a blank sd card ready to go. A USB cable ready to use.

    Am unsure what to do next.

    Thanks in advance,
    Robert
