It would go as far as Android and stall. If I played with the keys it would go to set up wizard, but it wouldn't work it. I connected to my desktop via the USB and downloaded sappimg.zip directly to the SD card. After following the rest of the directions as posted above I regained control of the device. Many thanks to theunlockr and to David C who posted the instructions. Any suggestions for a new ROM? My phone (myTouch 3G 3.5mm) wouldn’t boot to the home screen.

It sent my phone back into the past with the Cupcake operating system. It then asked me if I wanted to upgrade to Donut (1.6), which I did. Now it asks me all the time if I want to update to Froyo (2.2), so I just keep saying no. Maybe I will find a way to make it stop asking me if I want to update to Froyo, but I'm not worried about that right now. I'm just so glad to have my phone back! I had all of the problems that everybody else seemed to have: apps wouldn't load, would load r e a l l y slowly, $85 a month paperweight, and etc. While it's a drag that I don't have the functionality of Froyo, I'm just really glad to have a phone that actually works. Now I can use this phone for the next few months until my contract runs out, at which point I will say GOODBYE to HTC and GOODBYE to Android unless I receive some kind of written apology from them for being so awful. What a joke to have to reload all of my apps and have to go back to using an old operating system because of their much-hyped, but ultimately very flawed hardware.  I did this with my MyTouch phone (without the headphone jack) and it is WONDERFUL.
