I have a 500d. For some days, after I plugged it through the USB to the computer, it no longer memorizes the images, it does not go live view and if I try several times to take a picture, I get the error 70/80 or I get colored lines on the screen . Interestingly, sometimes I can take a picture or get into live view but very rarely, which makes me think it's a problem with the operating system of the device. I tried in all ways to fix the problem, formatted the memory card, reset all settings, updated the firmware from version 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 but so far I have not managed to fix anything. I mention that I used the Magic Lantern. Please tell me what else I could try?

Have you tried without Magic Lantern?  Have you tried with different battery?

Have you reset all settings including all "custom" functions?

if you have tried all that, then the next thing would be to send to Canon for estimate to repair.
