So I've been running Cyanogen's latest for quite a while now, with no problems that aren't systematic to whatever version he's just come out with. I decided to try something else just for fun, so I tried flashing JAC's and Drizzy's Hero ROMs. And yes, I flashed the correct radio and spl prior to the ROM flash.
For some reason, neither will work. They both come up with some kind of error at a certain line, either 80 or 59, I believe. So, I restore my backup to Cyanogen, and I'm back in business no problem.
Anyone care to hazard a guess as to what's going on? Thanks.

I had that issue before. Here is what I did:
Wipe + repartition(dont forget you need 3)
reupdate SPL -> used the OTA, the the hardSPL
that worked for me, give it a try and good luck
Yeah I would just say wipe everything, make sure you use parted to split your sdcard which should be class6 into fat32/ext2or3/linux-swap.
You need Haykuro's special SPL. If you don't have it you will get that error every time.

Exactly, so how the hell did Shaolinx flash it with HardSPL?

I'm sure he's mistaken.
And to the OP can you tell us what spl you have (cam + power).
Here's what it says:
DREA100 PVT 32B
HBOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
RADIO-1.22.12.29
Sep 2 2008
I assumed the HBOOT to refer to the SPL, which obviously isn't correct. So, I reflashed the SPL.
I think I did a bad thing. Phone won't boot to anything past the initial G1 screen. I thought this was only an issue if I had the incorrect radio. Thoughts?

I hate to break the news to you but that is not the correct radio...the newest radio is 2.22.19.26I
Looks like its time to call TMO and put on your lying cap...
Also just because it says HBOOT does not mean that it is Haykuros SPL. THe special SPL is 1.33.2005

and you have the wrong radio since the new one is 2.22.19.26I
Diceman4 with your slightly faster connection
but basically tell them your got an update or something, and that when the phone rebooted that it would not pass the g1 screen. also make sure you sound as clueless as to what root or flashing or anything technical is.
Ok, before this was a problem, I downloaded and flashed the radio, then the SPL. Clearly, they didn't take for some reason.
Now, my question is this: what do I do now? I'm looking in the bricked phone threads, but I haven't found an answer yet. Any help? Thanks.

I wouldnt even say you got an update, I would just say that the phone restarted on its own one day and then just froze at the G1 screen. Be sure to not use any terms like "flash" "bricked" "boot loop" or anything that makes it look like you know anything at all about phone hacking. David is right just make yourself sound as clueless as possible.

There is no way to fix it, the board needs to be replaced. You need to call t-mobile, follow mine and David's instructions and try to get a new one under warrantee

i assume you have a cyanogen recovery image with the trackball feature? if so, for the radio and spl flashes you have to do the keyboard commands to make it work, you can't use the trackball or recovery console to reboot. so you can't boot into recovery or bootloader? if you can't, you have a brick

You know that you can't install hero with hard spl right? For someone who has a site dedicated to Android you don't seem to have your **** straight - no offense. And he could have bricked his phone if he tried to do H's danger spl without having the correct radio. Be careful when you give advice, we don't need to HELP people brick there G1's.
Haha, that's what I get for assuming he had the right spl and radio when he said he did. But if you are getting G1 screen you aren't bricked, if you can get into bootloader(camera+power) you should be able to flash your way back in time then forward again. I guess it doesn't matter if you're already getting it replaced but I got my friends back when his was only loading to G1, a true brick wont turn on at all no matter what you press.

Check the brick threads and you will see that just cause you have the G1 screen doesn't mean you don't have a brick. Flashing the SPL before the Radio will brick your G1 and you will be stuck at the loading screen. That is really the only true bricks we are aware of yet, maybe your friend found another way to brick but if you do some studying you will see what I'm talking about.
i had CM 4.1.999 and i wanted to try out a hero rom so i decided to flash to the latest radio and spl. i flashed the radio succesfully, but when i flashed my spl (through CM 1.4 recovery), i got this error message saying the installation isnt complete.
"E:Multiple firmware images
E:cant store hboot image
E:failure ate line 1:
Installation aborted"
and idk if this helps but when i went into the bootloader it said i had the latest radio and spl, but in hboot it tried to run something (im not sure what) and it kept on saying "no image!"
any help would be greatly appreciated
and i did search before posting this and i couldnt find anything...
thanks once again
-ballerhaller
what does it say next to HBOOT in the bootloader?
No image! seems to be referring to not finding DREAIMG.nbh on the sdcard so you can just ignore that. And as long as it says HBOOT 1.33.2005 I would go ahead and try flashing a Hero ROM to see if it works cuz it can't hurt right? You already did the stuff that could potentially brick your phone.

it says
1.33.2005 (Drea10000)
but whenever i push the camera button to go into hboot mode, it tries to load an image of the sd card and it says No Image!
one more thing, when my phone is off and plugged into the charger the LED light is red? could that mean anything?
Nah. Just restart into recovery. There's not much more you need to do in the Bootloader aside from using fastboot (via back button, the camera button is for flashing DREAIMG.nbh so that's why its saying "No Image!"
ok, it boots back into recovery after the spl is flashed, but at the bottom it says "Formatting CACHE:..." and the spl never finishes flashing because the installation cant be complete

lol its red cause your battery is less than 90% charged and charging...
you already have the latest spl if it says 1.33.2005
just continue flashing the rom
..but is that possible if spl never finished flashing in recovery??

Like I said before, the easiest way to test if it worked is to flash a Hero ROM on there. If it was successful, then everything will be peachy; if it didn't work, then you'll get an error during the flash. Either way, I don't think you'll brick your phone.
Just make sure the error is an error that corresponds to not having the correct SPL vs not wiping your data partition or whatever.

i guess so..... i havent heard of it, but if it says 1.33.2005 in bootloader, then you have the haykuro spl
i searched your error and found people had that error but the spl installed fine anyway. go ahead and flash your rom and see if it throws any errors
thanks a lot guys, i went ahead and flashed the rom and got no error
thx for your time guys
and b-man, sorry, but i looked and i couldnt find another thread with a similar situation, i guess im blind? haha

lol np it took me a while to find too, and it wasn't in a specific thead. it was in a thread for haykuros 6.0 rom which was one of the first roms that needed the new spl. people were discussing the spl flash on there and 2 people mentioned it and said everything worked fine
I tried upgrading from 4.2.15.1 to the recent 5.0.7. following the instructions on the wiki, and successfully installed the radio and danger according to fastboot mode but get an error when I try to flash the CM mod. It cancels the installation and says '(Status 0)' when I try. I did a wipe from the recovery screen but is that all I need to do when people say not to upgrade directly from 4.15?

Did you check the MD5sum of the file to see if it was complete?
Ok, so going back I realize for some strange reason I downloaded the N1 version of the mod instead of the G1 version...
but i used to ums_enable command in the console to switch the files and it works now! thanks anyways

having the same problem and i'm not getting any answers either!!!!
the answer is everywhere. There was an issue with the recovery getting wiped. you got to flash the recovery thru fastboot.
One person downloading the wrong version...
one person not reading the thread for the recovery or keeping up with the issues that show up everywhere.....
And SUPREME is back, and was nice to everyone.

So is he trying to say that he is bricked?
Moved as not development.
Here's a few pointers;
1) There is no fastboot with 0.95.0000. You need at least 0.95.3000 for fastboot.
2) If home+power gets you an EXCLAMATION POINT SYMBOL ("!"), then you are able to get into recovery and it is the FACTORY recovery. The next step is learning how to use it. I believe that pressing ALT-L should get you the recovery menu....
3) From recovery, I think there should be a wipe option.
4) Failing to progress in the install of an NBH file may suggest that your SDCARD is DEFECTIVE. Try another one!
These are NOT a set of steps -- they are a set of IDEAS that you should think about in looking at this phone.
I doubt its bricked, just to a region not support by rc27.. (ie not a mobile from T-Mobile in the US) If that is the case a goldcard is your friend.
Hello. While doing the installation to work with the same DREAIMG.nbh 2.22.19.26I installed. 2.22.23.02 but does not work with the same file.

Is there any way to fix it or should i just forget it?. ,
I read somewhere then tried formatting sdcard and copied dreamg.nbh, then restarted phone by holding volum down+trackball+power button but it just brought the purple light and nothing happened.

Either you find someone with JTAG equipment, or your G1 is only useable as a paperweight now ...
Really speaking, I don't know why nowadays
1) someone is still using "DangerSPL", because it's proved to be useless for the T-Mobile G1 (use 1.33.2003 instead)
2) if someone still want's to use it, why he is flashing it by recovery mode
3) if nevertheless he wants to use it, he doesn't check twice the requirements before flashing
i was following guidliness from here.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Dream:_DangerSPL#Flashing_Radio
So even if someone has JTAG equipment , how they can fix it ???

Didn't use JTAG up tzo now, but a guide can be found on the Cyanogenmod Wiki.
Btw. in the guide you are referring to it's written in red letters: "before flashing check if you have a compatible radio installed" ...

Are you sure all ways to get into fastboot don't work?
Because I know that with some SPLs the buttons switch around
Try the following: Camera+Power, Call+Power, Back+Power
Because I know that when I bricked my G1 with improper SPL (semi on purpose since i knew i had an extra mobo), the G1 screen didn't show.
AndDiSa, I think you mean 1.33.0013d
And I use DangerSPL every once in a while to use ROMs older than eclair
And how else would you do it?
You don't exactly start with an engineering SPL on the dream, so you can't flash a SPL through fastboot, leaving the only way to be recovery.

1.33.0013d has only limited fastboot capabilities, so should not be the first choice, but 1.33.2003 is an full engineering SPL compatible with 1.x and 2.x radio, from there you can flash easily new radios and/or SPLs.
Sent from my Gingerbread on Dream using XDA App
Yes but to start with (on stock) the only way to flash an engineering spl is through recovery since stock has a non engineering spl which doesn't support fastboot flash

Yes I have already tried all the options, and i have given up hope coz even the computer doesn't show any activity when i connect it to computer through usb and switch it on. So You think i shouldn't have used dream_magic.hboot-1.33.2005-signed.zip?
Egh, its not exactly your fault
If you had the correct radio and it bricked....that's just a freak accident....
Oh well, I guess your g1 is done
You might be able to get someone to unbrick it for you with JTAG
