[Q] Need help please!

I have a g1 that I rooted using universal androot, I decided to uninstall myfaves and was unaware that it somehow affected contacts. Afterward I performed a restore to my phone, thinking it was going to help but now I'm stuck in the google welcome screen and the welcome app crashes every time it gets to sync and I cannot get past the welcome screen. I know it was a stupid thing to do, if anyone can help me I would appreciate it.
Can you go into Recovery mode?
Yeah, I can get into recovery mode. I also used the hard reset (alt + w), the sign in still crashes once it starts synching.
Try to restore nandroid

lol if you have a custom rom in and you remove an important app, doing a hard reset wont restore a custom rom... you have to either restore a nandroid/BART backup file (which means you needed to make the backup before you messed up the custom rom) or you need to re-flash the rom completely... which there are many guides and methods here on xda you can follow to properly flash roms, basic method is boot recovery, wipe data, cache, sd ext, etc..... than repair sd ext!!! than flash new rom.
Be sure you have the proper requirements needed for Rom! ex:
Radio=1.2.xxxxxx/2.22.xxxxx (many different ones)
hboot=0.95.xxx/1.3.xxxx (many different ones)
sdext=2,3 or 4 (some require none)
I will try it out, thank you.

another method to try (not garenteed) would be to unzip the rom on your pc, go to system/app folder and copy the fav5.apk file to root of sd card on your device. than go to market and download 'oi file manager' (or any type of file manager app) than flash the fav5.apk file that way.... make sure unknown sources is checked in settings/applications on device
Awesome thanks
Got it working!
I got it working. Just wanted to post the update, thank you guys for the help!!!

Sign out of Google or Reset the phone ?

i bought a used g1 on ebay for $40 and when i click on various settings it states a gmail email address but it doesnt let me change it, only enter the previous users password. how do i delete his account? should i just reset the phone to factory default? if so how do i do that? also Wifi is available right now, if i reset the phone will the wifi become locked? i dont have a data plan just prepaid plan. thanks for you help in advance
You have to reset it first. Then You will need to setup Your own google account details. You will be able to set your own wifi settings and turn off data if Your pay as you go plan not include it. Read forums and download manuals as it can save a lot of stress and money for You. Enjoy Your google device

Yes you need a gmail account to use any google app, and the app is called Android market. Just look around the phone and you should figure stuff out eventually...

Yes your wifi will become disabled, but here's a way to turn it back on:

Choose whichever is more understandable for you
BTW, this will downgrade you to 1.0, so if you want to use newer firmware you're gonna have to root and flash a custom ROM.
I can walk you through it, if you don't know how.
that whole guide is just to enable wifi? why the hell has htc even locked out wifi???? also since your guide downgrades me to 1.00 isnt it easier for me to just install custom android firmware that gives me access to wifi,etc?

Wifi isn't accessable until after you sign into google... I just got my g1 too, but mine only cost 3 weeks of begging a friend! Without data, it's a PITA. I borrowed a friends sim card (with data) to sign in to google, and once past that, turned on wifi and switched back to my sim. Much easier if you have the option.

Yes they just want to force a data plan on you
And to install custom android firmware, then you'd need to start with 1.00
After you do the wifi thing and sign in, you go on to rooting and flashing a custom recovery. Then the rest is easy peasy. If you want to I can help you. You should install Froyobylaszlo.
im worried about bricking the device, plus on some of these guides i clicked the terminology is unclear or not explained such as "terminal", etc
I've messed with my dream so much and never bricked it
And I just rooted my first mytouch 3g slide today...
Only the first time is scary
But if your worried, then just do a lot of research and make sure you become familiar with it all

Try to follow the Cyanogen's Wiki
Here's how to setup an google account with a Wi-Fi connection:
http : // wiki . cyanogenmod . com/wiki/Google_Login_via_a_WiFi_Connection
These steps will only work if you haven't added an account yet, and you're on RC29 system software
Here you have instructions to install RC29 system software, in section "Downgrading the Firmware":
http : // wiki . cyanogenmod . com/wiki/HTC_Dream:_Rooting
If you've an GSM data plan you can just do a wipe, and then login with your data plan.
To wipe, power off your phone, turn it on while holding the "Home" button. You'll see an triangle with an "!" inside, just press Alt+L, and then Alt+w. Reboot your phone and login with your GAccount!
Complete info about all this on Cyanogen's wiki for HTC Dream:

hey i followed your guides above and i have installed rc29 and i setupd a google account on my wifi network. im on android 1.0.
so i go to the Market in my phone and i click list all applications or games and it cant find any except solitare. where are the thousands of android apps?????

1.0 doesn't have many apps
There's a way to upgrade...
Look it up.
I can't right now.
When I get to a computer ill post a link if you haven't found one by then
But I really recommend rooting and installing a custom rom...
the OTA update doesnt happen on wifi. im guessing this rc29 i installed is already a custom rom. so what is the best custom rom for the G1 right now? i dont want anything that will slow down the phone. what do you recommend? any easy guides? will this be easier than the other guides u posted? thanks
First, flash the original RC29 G1 firmware, it's a DREAIMG.NBH file that's flashed from the bootloader.
The market thing is kinda simple to solve. Don't use the categories and these things, use the "Search function" (Menu > Search on market).
Then, you have 2 options from here:
1. Flash the cupcake upgade OR...
2. Flash an alternative recovery from telnet.
I really recomend the second option, shorter and less MiBytes to download.
Then, the idea is to update the radio and from here you can install the new SPL/Radio combo for 14 MB extras on RAM, or the combo that you prefer. Till' here all the hard part is done, the thing that lefts to do is a wipe (recommended one from fastboot), and flash the rom/kernel that you prefer.
If you want step-by step guidance, you can follow this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Dream:_Rooting
Do all the process till' the "Flashing Radio" section (do the flash radio thing, but don't do more steps).
From here, you must decide what SPL/Radio combo you prefer, the 2708+ radio and 1.33.0013d SPL is a good combo cause it allows to the phone to use 14 MB extras on RAM. The only thing is that this SPL/Radio combo is problematic with android 2.1.x and earlier, special kernels are needed and they aren't so easy to find. But if you're planning to install android 2.2.x or later, then this SPL combo will be one of the bests.
For guidance to flash radio/spl/rom/kernel and these things after following cyanogen's wiki, you can post here. Also, there are lot of threads here in XDA that guide you to do these SPL/Radio and other things, but be really carefull with them, you can harm your phone in a irreversible way.
i dont understand most of the terms you are mentioning. i downgraded to rc29. now what is the highest level of android available for the G1 that is an Official download from tmobile or htc. how do i install it?
http://androidandme.com/2009/10/beg...the-official-t-mobile-android-1-6-on-your-g1/
is that guide correct or do you have a better easier guide?
also what is the best unofficial rom to download for the G1? android 2.2? android 4? i dont know what spl is or radio,etc, what is the easiest guide for noobs? there are so many rom threads in the forum i dont know where to start. what is hands-down without a doubt the best rom available for the G1 right now, official or unofficial and a guide for it? let me know thanks. also are there any chances or bricking the phone?

About that link, better that you don't try it. You may have serious problems with so many written commands.
I'll be putting this as simple as i can
Respecting to the ROM and SPL and Radio and all those, just a few questions to decide about it:
You'll like features as share internet via WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, install aplications from market that require newest versions of Android, block ads on web pages and aplications, transfer files via bluetooth, they're kinda good stuff to try a larger guide for you? Or you won't those functions and prefer a shorter way?
Be adviced that with the shorter way you'll suffer all the T-Mobile limitations, with the larger one you'll have tons of capabilities and posibilities.
So, decide about this.
And some questions, to recommend you a ROM that adequates to your needs...
You would like the rom to be fast? To have a good look and apperance? To be stable and work apropiately and don't give you troubles/malfunction? To simply have the latest android operating system? To play games nicely? To have lot, lot of aplications installed? In resume, what will you need/require from a ROM, what are the specifications by what you'll definetively decide for them?
You have a T-Mobile G1, a Roger's/Orange one, or a Android Dev Phone 1 (this is shown when you power up the phone, the first screen tells you that)?
Your SD card is of how much gigabytes...? What class is your SD card?
And finally, yes, you've many changes to brick the phone by only doing little things bad (like 4 bad, bad clicks on your phone and you'll be done with it). So, please be carefull and patient, this will assegurate that your phone will be well configurated and don't give any trubles.
Waiting for your answers to give you more and more detailed and non harmfull steps
If you have a doubt of why so many questions, you can ask freely, I'll give you the reasons why does them matter. And... it would be faster if you answer them and ask at the same time

Yeah surely you can. Check the relevant links in my signature.
2- should i flash it with ics or wait for the original update via ota and update it normaly and even if i wait to the offical one will i be able to root it ?
You can flash ICS if you are ready to deal with the bugs and issues that are still nor sorted out. Because official ICS is not out hence its not Perfect. Flash only when you are ready to deal with it. Yeah you will be able to root official ICS too. Its xda brother
3- i need an app to control my usge data am using my data manager but it shows me os services and other thing that uses my data without me know am not used to this when i had symbian belle on my n8 so is there any app i can control what apps can connect to the internet and be able to use my data because i only have 2 GB per a month
Yeah you can use the inbuilt data monitor in ICS to restrict the data used the an app. Though there should be an app in Play Store too to achieve that on GB. I have never looked but search function is the best friend.
4- if i flash a custom rom will i lose all my data like music and pics
No anything stored in your sd card wont be wiped. Only your apps and their data will get wiped (for the first time...after rooting you can even back all these up)sms and contacts will get wiped too. So make sure you backup.
5- if i flash a kernal will i lose data like music and pics
See answer to 4 above.

How to Restore Internal SD DATA without DATA LOSS & FACTORY RESET ?

EDIT
You just have to know, that there are some ways to restore everything
In my Case I had Bootloader unlocked already (ofcourse)
And I just was stuck on the TWRP Part... I never knew that was soo easy, but you just have to do it properly.
I will make an extra Tutorial now, because it will save many people from going insane
Because of this I didn't sleep for 40 Hours now already, because I was deeply shocked and some very very nice Pictures and important Communications would be gone... and much work in Optimization etc. etc.
Yes!
Link will follow here!
Here you go for the Solution!

Hi,
I just tryed to update from beyond rom 5.2 to 5.8 and so I flashed it...
Then I got a Bootloop, because I didn't updated TWRP before.. so I got into my TWRP and flashed TWRP...
But after that I could not got into TWRP anymore, maybe because I forgot to add multidisabler..
So I flashed stock rom...
However Iam now stuck... I have important Data on the Internal SD and also the backup,
But I only come to the points where it asks me to delete all my data.
Is there any way possible to get the data?
Install TWRP somehow or get to a system?
Please suggest whats possible?
It's an emergency...
Hope you can help me & all who have this problem one day.
Best regards
I can only get to standart recovery, normal firmware & system doesn't boot - Bootloop...
I tryd to flash older firmware (ASH1, ASG8 & newer ASK1), but it doesn't boot system, always ask to factory reset and so on....
really ****ed up...
I hope there is another Way, then directly extract the data from the memory component... wich would be very expensive...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXDUhhyY2rE
basically the new flashed standart rom erases itself after first start, probably because it detects, that the system was modified before (beyond rom) then it reboots itself and there is no system anymore to boot, then it goes in a kind of pre recovery with the option to reboot, factory reset (including all data!) or reading a log...
DAMN I SHOULD BACKUP EVERYTHING ON PC... ALWAYS!
Still I really want to find a solution and I hope some pro can help on the S10.
No Solution for this.... it seems.
Omg i found the solution and got everything back
yes!!!! Great stuff
