I need help!!! Asap - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My g1 is stuck on the "tmobile g1" screen!! I need some help!! Im leaving for england in 3 hours
thanks

How about some more information... We can't help with "it doesn't work"..
Did you try to root it? If you hold camera + power when the phone is off will it boot in the bootloader? What happens when you hold home+power when the phone is off?

WHEN I BOOT INTO THE BOOTLOADER..IT JUST SHOWS "seriol0" and home+power = i takes me to the recovery <2>

also in the bootoader "no image file"

Did you rename the image correctly?
DREAIMG.nbh? NOT DREAMING.nbh

What were you trying to do?

pipmiester69 check your PMs

root..which i did get it to work..i was just doing a upgrade

and before you do anything else...
FYI - after flashing anything to your phone, it will sit at that G1 screen for up to 10 mins on the first boot.

its been on the g1 screen for about 12 hours now..lol

just making sure...
did you upgrade to cyan 4.0.3?

I guess he left.
Cyan 4.0.3 has a bug that causes some phones to not boot. If this is the case then you need to download Cyan 4.0.3.1 and put it in the root of your SD card. boot phone in recovery (Home+Pwr) and apply the update.

So are you still having problems? If so, what have you been doing? What steps have you taken so far?

He said he had 3 hours...
You can't recover?

Help with brick

Hello people.
I had installed previously CM recovery image 1.4 and i have a nandroid backup.
But I was trying to install cyanogenmod and I rebooted by mistake before upgrading with signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip
Now my phone is stuck with the movistar logo and I cannot start in recovery mode.
I have tryied to start the phone with Home+power, Camera+power, and VolDown+power and always shows the movistar logo and nothing happens.
I dont know what to do now...
Anyone can help me?
Theres nothing you can do. Do as every 1 else is gonna say. If you have insurance or warranty call and say you received an OTA update and after that your phone didnt pass "Movie Star Screen". If you have no warranty or insurance then you'll have to buy a new 1. Sorry.

My G1 will only boot up sometimes showing up the screen???

I have never encountered this issue... have been flashing roms for years.. on my windows phones and my G1 since it was possible..
The other day I went up update my phone to the latest CM ROM.. my phone finished and then I booted up the phone.. the screen was black.. i waited for a long time and not even the G1 screen showed up..
I booted again.. and same thing.. i booted again for days and tried getting into the recover with no luck..
I read someone had a simliar issue on here and they went into recover (though no screen or text shows up on screen) and proceded to hit alt w to wipe..i did that aswell and the next boot up the G1 screen showed up. I then did a complete wipe from there and began to install the new HTC recover and CM rom from scratch.. then same thing happend.. i kept getting the black screen...
I then tried to install the original SPL and install the original G1 rom and start all over.. i was able to install the original SPL (which I think is part of the issue) and then turned off the phone.. I placed the dreaimg in the sdcard and went to hit CAMERA and POWER.. and nothing shows up..
I can't for how many times i tried am able to get the phone to go into the install screen from holding down CAMERA and POWER..
I am able to restore the phone using the nanback up from the recover but since I installed the SPL it went away.. not sure if they are connected somehow.. so now i don't have those options either..
Can somebody help me with some ideas on how to fix this?
If you can't get into recovery? To me it looks like a brick phone.
As far as been here and read some post about not able getting into recovery or tri color screen not working as well and not getting any response from phone

I am able to get to the Amon Ra recovery.. and do things from there.. the problem is that when I reboot..it sometimes shows up the G1 and sometimes it stays black..
I tried reverting back to the original ROM by putting the dream on there at that point i noticed that when hold camera and power nothing happens..im' still able to reboot and go into Amon Ra recovery though..
Just an update.. i noticed that my phone only boots up properly if I slide out the keyboard before I press the power button to turn on the phone.. same thing applies when getting out of standby mode while the phone is on...

Stuck in Bootloader screen

Hello all,
as the title says, one of my touch diamond's is stuck in bootloader screen.
I didnt do anything in between it working and not working, it was on my desk, put it there working, got it 5mins later, and it was in bootloader screen (tricolor screen).
What i've already done to try and fix it:
flash it with the original HTC rom, flash completes succesfully, phone reboots to tricolor screen, so no solution there.
install mtty and format the phone, this completes, reboot the phone, again goes to the bootloader.
reflash the phone with original rom after cleaning it with mtty, flash again completes succesfully but when it reboots after flashing it just goes to bootloader again.
Tried to flash a Hardspl: stuck at 0% and stays there. so that doesnt work.
BUT! when in mtty i give the "boot" command, it DOES start to boot WM. but then again, when i turn the phone of, and on again, or it reboots because of first start after flash, it goes to bootloader again. The VOLDOWN button is NOT stuck, cause when it boots i can use the vol buttons perfectly fine.
Anyone got an suggestion in how to unbrick it? i have a second, perfectly working diamond here too, if that helps in any way.
Some more info ive just seen in mtty, when i told it to boot, it said ONE BAD BLOCK IN CE, remove block ---- to ---- (dont know the exact numbers anymore)
hi..i had something like that...

[Q] Nook wont boot.. stuck in boot loop!

On 1.0.1 I rooted using autonooter.. then I installed clockwordmod 3.0.0.5 selecting "nook old".. then I tried to boot into recovery and it keeps going to the page that says "touch the future of reading" with the logo, shutting off, turning on and going back to that page.. and so on..
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Update]
- Tried to run the solutions listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690
- Doesn't Work. Nook just turns on to "touch the future of reading" screen, shuts off, and turns back on to that page.. and continuously does that.. Tried to do a factory reset and the 8 restarts..
Any advice? Thinking of trying to bring it in to B&N to return. Would they know it was rooted? I can't even get past that screen

There should be a repair file on this forum. Did you by any chance, ever "format boot"? If so, this might be the culprit, as it removes the ability to enter CWR because the boot sector is modified.
It's worth a shot...
hey, thanks for your reply!
I don't think I ever did format boot.. i don't even know what that is.. hehe
Ever figure this out? I really don't want to go back to stock. I didn't format boot either.
Never mind - found it elsewhere. You have to use cwr-removal.zip and remove the recovery. It happens if you flash the recovery and then immediately go into recovery mode before rebooting.

How does PASSIMG method fail?
What happens?
Describe in details, please.
If PASSIMG works, but the phone still vibrates 7 times and gets stuck on X - it's most likely overheating and damaged beyond repair. You can put it in the fridge and it'll work there, but once you take it out - it won't boot.

ZIP error - most likely means the download is corrupt. Try to download again.
