American Android in an infinite rebooting loop

---

Hello,
I have American Android on my phone. After a few weeks of stability, the screen turned black and I was unable to get the phone to respond to any buttons anymore. I took the battery out of the phone and restarted it. It's stuck in the boot screen with the cyan Android animation. It never gets past this animation.
What can I do to fix this?

Also, I tried to open USB Massstg in the magldr menu to try to backup what I had on the phone, but for some reason, my computer isn't able to read anything from the phone in that mode.

Have you tried tak29?

Edit: I see you mean task29. Will that remove all of the data on the SD card?

It won't touch the data on the SD card. Also, in reference to the OP, the reason USB Mass storage won't read anything from the phone is because it's used to read the SD card, not the internal storage.

I am running all of my Android builds from my SD card. They are not ROMs that I flashed to the NAND.
Since all of my Android builds are being run from my SD card, how come USB mass storage does not work? You said that it is used to read the SD card, and all of my Android builds are stored on the SD card and not internal storage, so how come my PC cannot read the SD card under Magldr's USB mass storage mode?

Will using Task 29 fix my problem. I don't have a buggy ROM since I am booting my Android builds off my SD card. Also,
I just tried to put the following SD card Android builds on my SD card, and they keep restarting at the HTC screen (also going in an infinite loop):

I guess that the American Android build isn't the problem since other SD card Android builds are doing the same thing. I am really puzzled about what is happening. No Android SD card build is working, and I cannot figure out why. They were all working before yesterday.

I realize that there is FAQ that tries to address this issue, but the context here is different. I have no Android ROM flashed. I am completely booting from an SD Android build. The FAQ says to address the partition size, but I never had to deal with partitions because I am not using an Android ROM.

If you have a backup on your SD like (titanium backup) remove your SD card from phone and use SD card reader hook up to PC copy said backup folder to desktop and reformat SD then copy folder back to root of SD and reinstall ROM files to root and clean install.

Do you know how I would get my battery fully charged? For some reason, the battery isn't getting charged when it is plugged in. I only get an infinite reboot loop.
