so I have tired everything so please don't tell me to go google it or link me to the how to.
I have a CANADIAN HTC Dream so I'm going to make this as detalied as I can. my goal is to install a custom ROM.
So the info:
Model number: HTC Dream
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband version: 62.52s.20.18u_3.22.20.17
Build number: 1.85.631.5 146733 CL#33863
I don't know if you need all that.
so what I have tried so far is:
the one click root method when I try it it wont boot into the recovery mode I tried multiple times.
I tired your manual method but when I go to the downgrade step it tells me model ID incorrect! then update failed.
so how can I root the thing like I said I have (now) tried everything I could find.
Have you tried this method? it is the way to root rogers phones, i assume you have rogers.
Have you checked it via the goldcard way?
if not chek my sig
Hmm wow, seems like the manufactures are making it harder and harder to root... I am so glad I have the original G1 now

Hello guys!
I'm new with the android OS, so I would like to ask your help with my problem. My intention was originally to flash Cyanogen mod to my newly bought phome. I succesfully rooted my 1.1 firmware G1, and after that, I managed to replace the original recovery console with CyanogenMod Recovery 1.4 through flashrec.
In the recovery console I flashed to the "signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-img-14721.zip" which i've downloaded from the HTC developer page. Everything went fine, but after the flashing completed I accidentaly hit the reboot option before I could start the Cyanogen flash.
So eventually I made an 1.6 firmware Android Dev Phone 1 which I didnt wanted to.
Can I change it back to a regular phone with a previous firmware or I stuck with this forever?
I couldnt install flashrec anymore, and the Cyanogens recovery console has been replaced with the original one. When I try to install HardSPL the installiaton aborts itself about halfway. I tried to downgrade through bootloader with an RC7 dreaimg, but it sad "not allowed". Maybe good news is that I made a backup with Nandroid before the flashing, but as I read in order to restore it I need HardSPL.
Details:
T-Mobile G1 (Drea110 PVT 32B; HBOOT-0.95.0000; CPLD-4)
Model number: Android Dev Phone 1
Firmware version: 1.6
Baseband version: 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I
Kernel version: [email protected] #19
Build number: dream_devphone-userdebug 1.6 DRC83 14721 test-keys
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
gubika

You can easily root your DMD64
Just follow Binary100100's link.
Hey so I did something that I am really kicking myself for yesterday. As seen in my other thread, I was having issues with getting Google Voice from the Market. So guess what I did? I did a freaking OTA update on my nice new Hero that I just got yesterday. And guess what? Unrevoked won't work on it now.
So, I'd like to toss out my info and see if anyone has had luck downgrading with an old RUU. I tried one from the 2.1 root thread and it failed to flash.
Firmware: 2.1 update 1
Baseband: 2.42.01.04.27
Build: 2.27.651.6 CL169236 release-keys
software ver: 2.27.651.6
It seems to have a newer version of fastboot and hboot that won't let me flash from the SD card (forgive my noobish wording)

I had just used the *.5 RUU to flash over a .6 not 5 days ago. Worked just fine. Was located in the 2.1 Root thread. Second post.
Yeah, sorry for the false alarm folks, I just tried it again with debugging turned off on the device and it flashed fine.
Hey guys,
I have htc g1 and was wondering if I need to downgrade my firmware for installing cynogenmod 6
Information about phone:
Firmware version: 1.6
Baseband version 62.525.20.18H_2.22.20.23
Kernel version: [email protected])
Build number: dream-user 1.6 DRC83 14721 ota-rel-keys
Production team: www.HIAPK.com Ver 3.0_g1_ion
Cheers.
Yes, you do! You need to downgrade and root your G1.
Just found out that the phone has already been rooted. I typed su into terminal and I got to the next line with #. I guess it is rooted, yeah?
hmmmm.... im pretty sure if you have 1.6 than you are not rooted, is it DMD40? or you might just have a custom donut rom if you are rooted... anyway follow this guide

I am confused now. I have been reading this article:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...Firmware_to_CyanogenMod#Rooting_the_HTC_Dream
Do you reckon, I can just downgrade my phone by downloading RC29 (US) (since I have a T-Mobile G1), and skip the rooting step, and go to Installing a Custom Recovery Image step?
Your help is much appreciated.
leet_2k
well basically when you downgrade and install the custom recovery, that is considered rooting! but there so many good roms out now that if you follow the guide all the way to get the 28.25 radio and 0013d spl you can flash the latest and greatest roms
I apologize in advance if I should have posted this in a different area. Im not the best with that stuff.
As the title says, I want to remove TWRP and unroot my device. And yes I know there are many threads on this topic already, however none of them seem to actually get the job done. I have the Harmon Kardon edition for Sprint and I have been wanting to install this Lollipop update I got today.
So far, I have tried to use the RUU that a lot of tutorials seem to swear on, but when I start the process, it says that its not the correct version for my phone! (even though the tutorials say its for the harmon kardon eidtion)
Ive also used theUnlockrs tutorial and got stuck when there was no download for my CID number listed on the other xda developer post.
I then tried this tutorial and also couldnt find the correct files for my phone.
Heres what Im not understanding:
This isnt the first time I have rooted this device and unrooted it. I actually did this about 7 or 8 months ago and had no problem. Since then, I have removed all files and downloads that I used. SO WHY is everything wrong now? What am I doing wrong?
IF someone has the information I need to fix this problem, could you please help me? I just want lollipop!
Thank you,
sheer
Edit - wrong forum, and your problem is googleable.

yeah you say that, but apparently it isnt. Thats why I was looking for extra help..
Flash a stock rom.
Re-lock bootloader.
Flash stock recovery.
Take OTA.
Profit.
Side note it's not a good idea to wander outside the Sprint section because most threads refer to GSM devices.
One M8 Harman Karmon stock recovery

Having issues finding the stock recovery file for the M8 H/K.
Want to install ViperOne m8 but need to update to 4.4.4 first.
Anybody has a link for the stock recovery?
I've downloaded the stock firmware and the recovery is in there but I don't which file is the recovery.
