I have a problem. I made some custom wm5 roms flashed them without a problem. Nou i tried a wm6 rom. Flased the os only. It didnt boot. So i wen't in the bootloader but now after updating to the 1.34 HTC rom. My phone won't boot. What did i do wrong.
i think that you must try to format binfs and flash wm5 again
but!!! i'm not sure that format binfs did not kill your phone
but i knew that format binfs is recommended operation for upgrade to WM6 for Tornado platform

hello, I made the following steps: (I try to flash Jachero 2.3.5)
1) Install RC29
2) Install recovery image 1.3.1
3) Flash latest radio: ota-radio 2.22.19.2.6I
4) Flash latest spl: 1.33.2005
... and when I try to reboot, the phone stay stuck in the G1 screen.
What I'm doing wrong ?
Do you have root? If you do which im hoping is true try reformating your sd card cuz sometimes whenyou flash different roms some of the old stuff stays even after reflashing
hope that helps
you might have a brick, after flashing the SPL you are supposed to have another sd card with another ROM(or the same ROM) on it to reflash, if not you can get a brick
Sounds like you just need to reload your rom on. Once you flash the spl you need to reflash your rom otherwise you will be stuck at the g1 screen due to the fact you don't have a rom loaded on your phone because the spl update overwrites your rom.
It's Normal, i went through the same thing. After installing the SPL you have to re flash your ROM. im no expert but what i did was:
Note: i added the cyanogen recovery image 1.3.1 and also i have ROOT,
I had Cyanogen 3.6 rom so i flashed the radio then spl. and got the g1 screen.
then i flashed 3.6 rom on again. (turn on phone with power+home, alt+w to wipe, alt+s to install)
After it loaded the cyanogen 3.6 so i checked the settings to make sure i had the right spl and radio. and then i just flashed the JACHero rom. just like i did with the Cyanogen rom.
Probably dont have to reflash the cyanogen rom i was just being careful.
Just mount your sdcard in recovery. Boot into recovery and press alt+x. Now type:
echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file
Remove the update.zip,and place your ROM of choice on the sdcard. Rename it to update.zip. In recovery console type "reboot recovery". Now wipe and flash away =]
I've rooted many G1s now and this is something I've never encountered.
I rooted this G1, it now has the "special" spl, cyanogens 1.4 recovery and the 26i radio but it wont take any rom past RC33. It hangs on the G1 screen everytime. I've even flashed it with my nandroid backups from other roms and same result. Am I forgetting something here?
So you load the rom and update it. Does it say its succesfull? Then it just hangs on the g1 screen. What rom's are you trying?
i had a problem similar to this.. my solution was formatting my ext2/3 partition then i was able to flash roms again hope this helps
It flashes successful but wont boot past g1 screen. Also I'm not running apps2sd. I've tried several roms, none of which require apps2sd.
so all you have is a fat32 partition? you have haykuros spl and htc radio, with 1.4 recovery. your on rc33. and you cant flash another rom?
since you have no ext3 partition make one first then post back your results.
steps:
wipe
make a ext3 partition
wipe again
repair file system
then flash.
wait for it to say done then rebot. if it boot loops, try going back to rc29 then root your fone, then insted of going from 29 to 33 go to cyans 3.9. with updated radio only no spl.
you can flash a rom then flash the radio it wont hurt your fone or rom.
with all the other answers up if none of those work, maybe you got a bad download. if the dev posts a md5 for their download check it.
Hiya ppl,
I recentlly rooted my phone and wanted to use teh JACxHERO ROM om my phone so I download the radio 2.22...... and the SPL.
According to the guides you need to do Radio first (update.zip) then SPL (spl_signed.zip). Then do a wipe and load your ROM.
The radio updated fine but when I do the SPL upgrade it is stuck at the G1 T-Mobile screen, or return to the recovery screen.
No matter I tried wiping and updating ROM again with JACxHERO again. Still same issue.
Put back my nandroid backup and other ROM is back. I also noticed that after the wipe all my data is still there nothing changed.
My question:
The radio is up to date. Should I:
wipe
SPL
wipe
ROM
wipe
????????
Thanks in advance
What recovery image are you using, Cyanogens? Is the SPL actually the new one? Hold camera and power when the phone is off and you should come to a white screen with skateboarding androids (if nyou come to a rainbow coloured screen, it didn't work)

Boot into the SPL and make sure it updated (Power + Camera button)
The SPL should be 1.33.2005
If not the SPL did not update correctly (If your using Cyan's recovery, do the SPL upgrade, but reboot pressing Home + Power instead of using the trackball)
If it is 1.33.2005, then try flashing another Hero ROM and seeing if it works
Also, make sure your SD card is clean (wipe your ext partition, you do have one right? )
one of the guides on here says that after you've flashed the new spl, you will get stuck on the g1 loading screen and you need to reflash with the rom you were originally running, let it reboot back into that rom, then try and flash jachero
eg
if you were originally running a cyanogen rom
flash radio
flash spl (then reboot and you will be stuck at the g1 screen)
reflash cyanogen (let it reboot completely)
then flash the jachero rom
that's what i did and it worked for me
I have the Cyanogen recovery 1.4 i Believe (latest and greatest)
OK really wierd indeed i see the android staking funny
This is what is says:
DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA11000)
RADIO-2.22.19.261
APR 20 2009, 15:30:43
HBOOT
<BACK> Fastboot Mode
I enabled fastboot now as well.
Jet when I flas the JACxHERO ROM it is loopt at G1 screen or turn back to recovery.
**Just download all zip's will do it now.
Make sure you have the correct partitions.
So no ROMs will flash?!
I know I have the correct partitions:
ext3 500MB
FAT32 1400 MB
linux-swap 32MB
I can flash others but I want HERO
Its Flashing right now brb with answer
LOL it hangs at the HERO logo

Welcome to Hero builds... they're all going to be slow compared to the Cupcake-based builds, though a lot of tweaking can help somewhat.
Also you have a class 4, a class 6 will help some more.
ok thnQ for the tip
And also my bat was running empty, charged my bat and worked a lot faster.
Hi,
I've been trying to upgrade my Hero from cyanogenmod 6.1 RC1 for a while now. Every new rom I try to install just hangs the phone at the initial HTC screen. I've tried wiping every partition I can possibly wipe before I install the new ROM's but no go. The only way to get my phone back is to install 6.1 RC1 again.
Not sure what to do. I've tried different memory cards too.
Any suggestions? Maybe my phone just doesn't like the new 7.X roms?
Try reflashing your recovery. You might want to check out Ra1.7. Or you could try this after you reflash your recovery
Backup all of your data to your pc. Then format your sd threw your pc and restore factory defaults. Then format it again threw your recovery with no partitions no swap just all fat/system. Then redownload the rom of your choice+gapps. Then perform a fully wipe as in data,cache davilk-cache. Then flash the rom then the gspps and see if the rom will reboot.
Locked & Loaded
yeah you should definitely use the wipe function in the recovery menu before you flash the new rom,
if that doesn't help, restore to the original and start over, maybe use different recovery, i use the the amonra, it's been working well
Thanks, I will give it another go in a day or two and let you know how it goes.

This is not a ROM, it's SPL and radio for you G1.
It's [HOW-TO] Haykuro SPL, Danger SPL, Death SPL FOR DREAM/G1
ROM and SPL/radio is not the same.
And did you already ROOT your G1?
Yea i have rooted it
