No, it wasn't because of any of that. I have never had an issue with any kind of a flash or app or any of that. I always point people twoards GSLEON3 that are looking for help with mtty. My issue is not based on any flash or anything like that. My issue is based on my lack of attention to detail. I dropped my phone in a container of fresh oil and didnt recognize the problem for about an hour or so. Needless to say I have a real pretty "LAVA LAMP" phone.

yes what can I do to fix the G1 brick ?
well what you can do is if you have insurance just tell t-mo rep that your phone went black once installing some update that prompted on screen and they will provide you with an exchange/replacement phone
so far there is no possible way to unbrick the g1

You can't fix a "brick" hence the reason its called a brick. it becomes useless
See my sig
There is no possible way to unbrick the phone at the moment. Do as AndroidFiend says. Your phone should still be under warranty and you should be able to get a replacement
Well the only way to unbrick a G1 is if you have magic fairy dust and sprinkle it over the phone. But magic fairy dust is hard to come by now a days.
Not if you call a T-mobile rep. They usually have lots of that magic dust.

send to tmobile tech service. or if thats not an option, then try through htc.
if they find that its covered by warranty, they will replace it for free (tmobile i mean)
all g1's have warranty through htc till oct 22
if I send the phone to HTC how much cost repair the brick ?

I believe they will charge a $39 triage fee, then shipping, IF your covered by warranty.
If they find out you hacked the phone, it will be more expensive. (~$150?)

PD: before I brick my phone the G1 had the version 1.6 and I install the RC29 . I want to do the old process because the one click method do not leave do a backup to the img

He does mean it. He thinks being stuck at the g1 screen is a brick. He can't get it through his head that a brick is a phone that you can do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WITH. No combination of buttons does anything.

and YES i tried pushing every button incl the light button in the room dosent work.
and YES i f####t up a spl and radio i think i mixt the files up and thats the where i am right now.
I post this beacase you are professionals ate this and i am a maybe brickt amateur
any help is welcome
Hasse blom
so a person i hired to flash my rom just when he's in the middle of flashing the hero rom the phone's battery dies he says let it charge ill be back when its fully charged and now im turning it on and its stuck in the t mobile g1 boot and i cant access recovery or boot loader i guess my question is what now do i have a brick
if you cant access bootloader or recovery...your bricked
you can try martin_secretary's method in the dream section and see if it works, but if he messed it up during the spl flash...your phones dead
no that battery died when the hero rom was flashing

Yes and then backhand him in the face.
Why would you want to pay someone to do it anyways, the steps are easy enough to do it yourself.
1. the guy is lying, it messed up during the spl flash, or the battery died during the spl or radio flash, that is the only way it could be bricked, it dying during the rom flash would not brick the phone, just wouldn't let it boot all the way up.
2. get your money back.
3. backhand the guy, then give his mother the ninja.
4. don't let other people who don't what they are really doing mess with your phone, obviously he didn't know what he was doing well enough since he tried to flash something that could potentially brick the phone, while the phone had a low battery.

Long story short.
Phone is broken, wont let me revert to stock, So I have no warranty.
I need it fixed, but dont have any money.
So I need to find a way to make the phone never turn on again, without warrenty voiding damage. That way they I can act all dumb on the phone 'Ohh it wont turn on at all! I just woke up this morning and it was like that! '
Is it possible?! Im thinking microwave?
(sorry, I just realised the general section was probably better feel free to help anyway though!)
Your phone? I hear there are lots of different phones, and apparently they all work differently... *hint, hint*
EDIT: A microwave?! "So yeah, I woke up this morning, and my phone was on fire" *gestures to charred lump of plastic*
when you say "so no warrenty"?
do you have a warranty?
if so just take it back and act like you did nothing wrong
Microwave sounds interesting just make sure you dont damage your microwave. You would be stuck with no phone and no food...
If its android remove / (Everything )
I think this can be acomplished by in terminal use
su
rm /
It should remove every thing and your phone will break I'd test it but...
Or use adb

I was thinking a microwave, because it will blow resistors fairly easily, without leaving much of a mark! Only for a few seconds of course!

I do have warranty.
But the phone has HSPL on it. Which I cant get rid of because its broken!
They will more than likely check to see if its still stock at the repair centre, see the hack and refuse to fix it :/

So.. the only legal way to fix this though would be to use the hammer above
Edit: Or put it to good use here
is there hardware actual broke? or just wont boot past bootloader?
search for the TASK-29 tool... will wipe your phone and might actually let you flash a rom successfully...
its been a long time since ive used WinMo, but that tool was very helpful

Normally in that hole there is a little socket, I'm pretty sure it is for testing purpose and it is not used normally. So nothing to worries about

look in controlpanel -> find device manager and see what it calls the phone when it is connected.
is screen always totally black after you have cleaned it and it was not black before you cleaned it ? if you took phone apart, something is not sitting correctly for sure. that should not be able to brick phone that way
well i tried dismembering it again an reattaching everything again to no avail. BLACK SCREEN.. i took a photo of the phone before doing any soft updates to it and i noticed now it said it was s-on, now i am a hd2 user and at that moment didn't realize.. so is it possible that it is bricked because it got flashed with a rom on a s-on mode? cause any other thing is that testing point that i am missing that was strangely connected with a small wire in the middle but it worked with that so... any repairman around or something like that ...help..please
