Hiya android forums
Im getting myself a ADP - just waiting for it to arrive and now it has made up a few questions in my mind - please dont bash the hell out of me if they have been asked before
First off, im not completly new to all this flashing, SPL etc, I would say i know the basic of flashing a WiMo...
So it kinda the same when you want to flash a "custom rom" to the G1, you need the first flash a custom SPL?
If thats true is it also true that the ADP have some sort of open SPL wich would allow any rom to be flashed, custom or not (Even WiMo)?
What are the downside of having a ADP rather than a T-mobile - besides the "small" problem with paid programs at market?
More questions prolly arises in the near future, but if anybody would be able answer thise Id be really glad

So it kinda the same when you want to flash a "custom rom" to the G1, you need the first flash a custom SPL?
On Android there are two ways generally to flash a device: through the recovery (which checks against some Android crypto keys) and through the spl (either through htc-signed nbh or fastboot). Since you are getting an ADP, the device has the test-keys which mean you can flash whatever you want using the first method.
If thats true is it also true that the ADP have some sort of open SPL wich would allow any rom to be flashed, custom or not (Even WiMo)?
Yes, it is also referred to as the engineering bootloader (not technically the correct name, but close enough). It allows direct flashing of the entire flash from the spl using fastboot. You could not flash a winmo rom, since the fastboot protocol, afaik, does not allow changing the existing partitions in the onboard flash.
What are the downside of having a ADP rather than a T-mobile - besides the "small" problem with paid programs at market?
You can also modify the system software to show paid programs. That is no longer an issue. In fact if you flashed a T-Mo firmware, for all intents and purposes it would be identical to a G1. Only downside, I suppose, is you have to pay $400.
Go read the stickied posts in the dream developers forum. They will answer the questions you have.
The downside to using adp images vs tmobile images is you lose some of the tmobiles specific applications. Currently they are myfaves, amazon mp3 store, and the IM app.
The current JF ADP 1.5 image, as well as the other cupcake images, do allow "protected" apps, so the marketplace restrictions aren't an issue anymore with ADP images if you flash one of the custom builds.

Thanks for your answers
Ive now read a whole lot of the stickies in the development section - however i still have kinda few questions
So now that its an ADP and therefore have the engineering bootloader i dont need to flash a custom SPL - however both on the wiki and in the stickies the custom one are still recommended, is that only when youre on a "normal" g1 or what are the reason for me to flash a custom SPL rather than stick with the engineering?
As far as i recall from my WiMo days it wasnt too easy (Not to mention safe) to do a flash back to the orginal SPL once you have flashed a HardSPL - is that also the situation for "the common guy"?
How does flashing a custom SPL affect the warrenty?
//M
The "HardSPL" for G1 doesn't work the same as for winmo. In the winmo world. HardSPL prevents other programs from normally writing to the SPL. Rewriting SPL would have to be done with a backdoor. In G1, the capability to restrict writing the SPL hasn't been implemented yet. The only difference between HardSPL and the Engineering SPL is the former is capable of accepting DREAIMG.NBH from all regions, as it spoofs a supercid.
Once one's SPL can perform fastboot nand flashing (which Engineering SPL can do) then there isn't much else that needs to be done.

That is the latest ADP1 firmware / baseband from HTC ( i just verified the version strings to the ones on my ADP1). You are good to go for now.
http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html
One modification to do is to A2SD (apps to sd). Doing an A2SD mod puts installed applications on the sd card giving you more space and fewer writes to your adp1's precious internal flash chips.

So what would i gain by using one of the custom roms? Anything that i cant do with this by simply install apps?

Currently I see very little to gain from the custom roms on the ADP1, I installed one of those custom roms to get closer to 1.5 before 1.5 was final and the custom rom seemed buggy and slower. The custom rom I used also defaulted to Chinese once installed that was tough to fix.
One Positive thing about custom roms though is that there is a custom ROM floating around that enables multi-touch. Android currently supports multi-touch but Google has disabled it in the source code (patent issues with Apple).
Since the ADP1 has the open boot loader, feel free to play around with custom images. The chances of bricking the ADP1 are much less ( as long as you are careful and flash things properly)

I've got a few questions, hope no one minds answering. If it's a simple case of RTFM then lock the thread and trash.
1. I've rooted and am using the latest JF build but when I go to telnet I can't connect to localhost anymore. Is this normal?
2. I'm running stock SPL and Radio (not too sure what the radio is btw). Is it best I update before flashing anymore roms?
3. I'm wanting to flash to Cyanogen Mod rom, it looks a lot more complex than simply renaming the rom to update.zip then flashing. Is it safe to assume that there is a lot more work to do? (if so a general point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated).
I really appreciate any help.
Thanks
1. I'm not sure as it has been some time since I last used JF's build I'm afriad...
2. Its advisable at the very least to upgrade your radio (look at my signature for a link). You can upgrade your SPL too providing you have flashed the latest radio FIRST and that you are on a PVT motherboard.
Boot into the SPL to find that out (turn off/reboot the mobile, Hold CAMERA+POWER). It should say at the top.
3. To use Cyanogen's ROM its like flashing any other ROM. Just make sure you have the latest Radio FIRST. Also I believe it works fine for non Apps2SD users so no need to partition your SD card etc to use it.
Hope that helps.
Stock SPL? do you mean HARDSpL?

Unless it was updated while rooting it's probably "G1 Original SPL"
Thanks NeoBlade, I'll update the radio and spl tomorrow then probably try and get nandroid running so I've got a backup in case anything goes wrong.
No worries digital, just do your usual pre-checks before flashing the SPL and remember Radio first ^_-
You'll enjoy the new features and performance improvements using the latest cooked ROMs out there. Most of the info is in my signature but you can also flash the new Recovery image too by Cyanogen (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523558).
Not only can you create a Nandroid backup from there, you can also restore it too all from your mobile ^_^
Not to be an @ssh*le, but if you root your phone don't you already have the HardSPL? If you follow Koush's guide you were told to flash the HardSPL which isn't the stock SPL at all. Care to shed some light on this?
He could have had the engineering SPL, I remember having that briefly myself in the early days. The main thing is that he just wants to run Cyanogen's ROM so as long as he updates the radio and flashes the ROM without issues it should be fine. Unlike some Hero ROMs it doesn't require the latest SPL to create space for the ROM.
Granted though, its often always nice to have the latest stuff ^_-
Ok well if you DECIDE to update to the latest radio and SPL just go to my guide below and go to the second post. That will tell you how to install the radio and spl updates!
Good luck!
Indeed ^_^ And once that's done, perhaps change the title to SOLVED so people know. We shall have to wait for digital to get back to us about it.
This is the guide I used:
http://haykuro.theiphoneproject.org/?page_id=35
Sorry alritewhadeva:
I'm on the HardSPL so I guess I don't need to bother updating that again. I didn't get to the point where it said to update to the newest radio.
Reading a bit further it also says that I can do a backup easily using adb which is already setup. At some point in the process it must have installed the things needed for nandroid backup. I think it was the recovery.img part.
Thanks for the great link Nephron, I used it before to setup adb on my netbook (running win7 on my main machine).
Before I flash the latest radio is it safe to do this *after* updating the spl?
Thanks for all the great help, I really appreciate it.
As a thumb of rule, always flash the radio first before the SPL and the ROM.
Tell us how it goes ^_^ If you've managedto do it, could you please edit the title then to add SOLVED? Good luck.
Soo do you have to flash the radio and SPL everytime you want to flash a rom??? i already have the latest radio, i just want to make sure i dont make a mistake

No you don't. Only once... then kind of keep an eye on the forum to see if better radio or SPL comes along. So far I had to update my radio once. What recovery image do you have (home+power), is it still JF1.43? You should update that to CM 1.4, you get a lot more flexibility with that... read up on it in development forum. All in all, unless you plan to install Hero anytime soon (and I personally don't recommend it, too slow and buggy) you should be good with (in that very order)
1. Flashing newest RADIO (Haykuro has it in the link you provided, only need to do it once and you already did it!)
2. Flashing HardSPL (you already did that too! no need to do it again)
2. Updating your Recovery Image (once more, this only needs to be done once)
After that - flash any rom you feel like at any time you feel like doing it.
Hope that helps, good luck!
I agree with everything borodin1 said. If you're on a 1.5 ROM you really should have the new radio already, but you can always go back and flash it. Afterwards you'll want hard SPL or haykuro's. Haykuro's is what you'll need for most HTC based ROMs (Hero, Rogers). Most people brick when flashing Haykuro's ROM because they don't read. Aslong as you have the new radio and a PVT phone (go to the bootloader - home + camera - and it should say PVT) you will be fine.
First off I want to say that I know my way around a WinMo flash,reflash, nand breaking and all that jazz pretty well. But Android...not so much.
I ordered a G1 off Ebay recently, it has been shipped, but in the mean time, I was wanting to research the rooting and flashing process..It looks very involved...Very involved..lol
I've read the guides and such but was curious about the rom/radio bricking issues. With WinMo theres alot of radios..How about Android(My phone is an unlocked T-Mobile)?? Are there still known issues?? I like this rom http://lb.vg/fVl3w
Are the guides for rooting on here currently up to date(I think they are, and they probably are)?? Do I have to root to flash a new rom on there(I think I do)??
Sorry for the n00bish questions, but I really don't wanna kill my phone.
Can all bricks be fixed via the user??
Thanks
Edit: What is the situation of Flash?? What is supported??Is Hulu supported??
2.1 and 2.2 Froyo..Whats the difference??

First root (did it yesterday for the first time, phone was rooted when I got it).
You need root for certain apps, for installing another spl, custom roms.
Root installs recovery (if I remember ok).
Upgrade spl from stock to 1.33.2003 (zip file in recovery). Now you can use fastboot (safer!).Reboot in fastboot and flash first another recovery, then another radio (2.x) radio (needed for spl 1.33.2005), reboot again, go to fastboot and flash the dangerspl 1.33.2005 (or use MTDpartitions, but I got problems with it). Then flash roms.(no need for the old hardspl).
Flash not supported(arm incompatible).
Bricks can only be fixed with an JTAG, so be carefull (always wait) ! ROMS can't brick your device, only the officials can (which contain spl and radio).
Read for flashing the spl's (if you have rogers(canada) it's different).
Idk what this user means by saying that flash isn't compatible with the arm processor.
But yes android 2.2 supports flash all the way to flash 10 but on the g1 I don't think it would be so good on 528mhz because flash is pretty bloated on system resources. But flash videos are fine hulu runs fine for me.
Woops sorry about the double post I refreshed page and it submitted info twice. I did not see a delete function.
Should I do any sort of formatting or partitioning on my SD card or just let the G1 do it??
I've got an 8gig SDHC Class 4 card also.
I've also been reading about J-Tagging the G1..Theres an adapter on here http://miniurl.com/49008 and it's 20USD for the adapter but I think I have to heek it up to an Omnia Repair box..Is that right?? This video http://miniurl.com/49009 shows em hooking one up to a white box..and the only white box on there site is for the Omnia Repair one and it's 229 Euro's(304USD).
Does the first reply have the correct steps for rooting my phone?? Is that for all versions. I'm not sure if mines a R29 or lower.
Sorry for all the questions.
Thanks

I just bought an old G1 and am wanting to play a little and see if i can get the thing running a little better as it really is a cool phone. I am looking at of course trying to get Cyan6 on it and am seeing it needs DangerSPL for repartitioning the SD card. Now i assume a Class 6 (or very least class4) card would be needed for this. Also i see the on teh Cyan Wiki site it says to download the new radio first, 2.22.23.02. When i look under "About Phone", is see my radio is 62.50SC.20.17H_2.22.23.02. I imagine they are the same thing but i just want to make sure. Plus, if they ARE the same i imagine i don't need to download the other radio before i get started. One other question, does teh Danger SPL repartion for you or do you have to do it manually after you flash it? Thanks in advance for any help!

The REASON some people use the deathspl is BECAUSE it repartitions.
BUT THERE ARE MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER WAYS to do this!
DO NOT use deathSPL!
Use this instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717874
ADVANTAGE: You get an extra 15 MB of usable internal storage! On a DREAM, that's a lot!
Thanks!!! I WOULD like to flash something that is not real likely to brick the phone.
Okay, there was A LOT of info in that thread... I am sorry to ask but could you possibly break that down into a little more simple terms?? Like, do i just flash the two downloads and they do the work?
Also, i read about "faking", would i have to fake to just download CM6?
Thanks again for the help and info!

This is the gist of it:
The kernel sets the partition layout, so if you want a different partition layout, you just need to tell the kernel the new layout you want to use.
The patches modify the boot partitions (boot and recovery) to contain a new kernel commandline with the new partition layouts.
The install procedure goes like this:
You have some modified recovery installed, so you install the recovery patcher. It is now permanently installed until you install a non-patched recovery image.
Then you reboot in order to load the new partition table.
Then you install your ROM -- recovery is aware of the new partition table.
When this new ROM installs, IT IS NOT aware of the new partition table -- so you need to install the boot partition patch. This always has to be done after flashing the boot partition, but if you DON'T flash the boot partition, you don't need to worry about it -- its done.
Real easy.
As for the "fake-SPL" thing... that is because cyanogen has committed an atrocity in his ROMS -- by detecting the SPL you have installed and only allowing install to certain ones. The "fake-SPL" just adds another parameter to the kernel commandline that tells cyanogen that a different SPL is installed than what you actually have.
REGARDING YOUR SPL SELECTION:
The best bet is to install 1.33.2003 (very important -- ends in a THREE).
This is the STRONGEST ENGINEERING SPL that there is, and it is fully 100% compatible with stock 0.95 SPLs and both 1.x and 2.x radios.
And yes, you already have the right radio installed, so no need to worry about that.
Thanks for the reply, this is extremely helpful!! I will try it this evening!
So I just picked up an original T-Mobile branded G1. It's got the stock 1.6 firmware on it now. I would like to try running 2.2 on it but I have absolutely no idea how to go about it.
So far I have determined that there are more flavours to choose from than at a baskin robbins. I'm also completely lost when it comes to radios, kernals, bootloaders and other things expressed as three letter acronyms.
Could anyone suggest a good solid 2.2 firmware and the specific supporting bits and pieces I will need to make it work? I really want to see this phone shine.
Like everything else, read the development forum on the ROM. Do a research on what each ROM will do. Some ROM needs a specific SPL (HBOOT) and radio in order for it to work properly. As you already know (from your post) there are many different flavor of ROMs. Some deal with speed, and performance. Other deal with functionality of the apps. Most of them if not all are on 2.3 at this point.
You will have to sit down and read the instruction once you decided which ROM you wants.
Most everyone love Gingerbread series (specifically Gingerbread Yoshi and ezGingerbread).
I, myself, started with CM 6.0.0 RC1 (2.2) and after it crashed on me I end up loading SuperAosp DM 2.8.2 (with 2.3 on it) with the recommendation by one of the member here. It is fast performance, and that what I need.
So, you'll have to decide what you want to do with your G1 before you flash it with a custom ROM.
I have done this, this week end.
Here there is a post about the ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4647751&postcount=1
and this one for the radio i find
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=640535
i suggest you to do a Nandroid backup before, and format your SDCARD ( i didnt done this, but i read about some problems to install the rom) and you will reboot your device after changing Recovery and After flashing the rom. and htc logo take a while befor showing cyanogem mod.
tell here if you find problems
So everyone says good things about http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811620. It seems a good place to start. But I'm still a n00b. What, precisely, do I need to do with my bone stock (But unlocked) G1 to install it? Do I need to root it first?
"If you refuse to upgrade or can't upgrade because you have a 32a (1.2 or classic) device: you will need an alternative kernel as described in step 4.b 4.c or the phone will not boot
Note: 2.22.27.08 will also work but is not how the ota was shipped
* Uesrs of other SPLs can either use Danger (dream only), any sapphire SPL on the magic/sapphire/MT3G or alternatively Custom MTD I recommend "87 2" (system/cache) {as of test3 06bindcache will work if you install the parts package, thus if you use CustomMTD parts is mandatory to avoid market issues} "
Does that just mean I need http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139? Then why does it say "Please note this includes my 20101106 - 2708 ported kernel"
What is an SPL? What's this about Danger? What's fastboot?
I'm much better with a soldering iron than software.

You will need to root your phone, if you want to flash custom ROM. Unlocking it is just so you can use it on other network.
BTW! I was a noob at this probably a week or so ago, when I first started to work on upgrading my G1. Now I am learning the rope and helping others.
Phone: T-Mobile G1 / HTC Dream
Recovery installed: RA-dream-v1.7.0
SPL installed: 1.33.0013d
Radio installed: 2.22.28.25
I was trying to install CM6 stock and ended up with a reboot loop (2708 issue?). I wanted to go with the "official" CyanogenMod 6 for documentation reasons.
I found information on "SpoofSPL" to get stock CM6 to work. The instructions for use are rather poor, and I haven't been able to find any information that helped me with it.
SpoofSPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9068311&postcount=84
The instructions seem to say "just flash it". Ok. When? Before installing the ROM? After?
I tried this:
- wiped device ("fastboot system erase -w", etc)
- installed SpoofSPL via Recovery
- Typed "reboot recovery", per on-screen instructions (via "adb shell")
- installed CM6
* fail * (reboot loop)
- wiped device ("fastboot system erase -w", etc)
- installed SpoofSPL via Recovery, but did not reboot.
- installed CM6
* fail * (reboot loop)
- wiped device ("fastboot system erase -w", etc)
- installed SpoofSPL via Recovery, but did not reboot.
- installed CM6
- installed SpoofSPL again (I saw a post where someone said do it last)
* fail * (reboot loop)
What is the correct install method?
Is it possible to *verify* that it even installed or did anything?
just flash it
all it does is setup your recovery image to pass a kernel command to override the bootloader version so checks in the updater-script pass
BUT it will make no difference to the newer CM 6 ROMs as all of the checks were removed
see this commit

So stock CM6 not booting has nothing to do with my SPL (1.33.0013d), but instead because I'm using Radio 2.22.28.25?
Thanks!

if you have problems in installing, you should spoof SPL, if you have problems in booting you most likely need an adapted (2708) kernel.
im having this problem too
stock CM6 doesn't support 2708 or 2825 radio
you must flash a compatible kernel
spoofing the SPL will only let you get round the checks without needing to edit the updater script
but as I mentioned above the checks were removed
DS: Remove radio/bootloader checks by request. GOOD LUCK!

I wanted to go with "stock" CyanogenMod since it's one of the few (only?) ROMs that has a "real", dedicated site for it.
It's documented, has a wiki, and it's own forum. From a professional viewpoint, it's the one to get.
Most ROMs and kernels are from "random person X" on "random site Y", have little-to-no documentation, poor or incomplete documentation, "mystery files" packed in, etc. With so many kernels and ROMs posted all over, how am I supposed to know what to use?
Is there some site where I can find what most people use on a G1?

Not to drive you away from Cyanogenmod. Have you try looking at SuperAosp? They have a dedicated site and they only support their ROM there only. The only thing is the site is in Spanish. They currently just released Rom SuperAosp 6.0 for HTC Magic & Dream (I have not install it yet) this past weekend. It's supposed to be faster and more stable with the battery (according to the members here that already installed it).
There also have a [ROM][email protected] GINGERBREAD 2.3.3 forum that keep up the status here for XDA Members.

xda
and you failed to keep it stock by installing 1.33.0013d
that spl is not directly supported by CM
you must use a compatible kernel - stock cm6 does not have compatible kernel
if you want CM 6
flash it
then flash the kernel I linked
or do your own research
I won't be spoon feeding you again as you just spat it out.
@BitingChaos - Effdee has already provided you with what you need to do. I suggest that you follow it, if CM6 is what you want to use. You needs to have a compatible Radio/SPL to the ROM or it will not work.
Either that then flash other ROM that will be compatible to what Radio/SPL you already have.
