For some odd reason everytime I try to install the cyanogen rom v4.0.4 I believe its one of the stable ones, I do everything to root my fone and install the rom and my fone says its done w the updates and to reboot it and when I do it stays @ the g1 screen. Now I take the battery out and press the cam and end buttons to reinstall the dreaimg to take it back to rc29 state. When I power it up it works just fine the lil android dude pops up and i put in my info and then just redo the steps to the cyanogen rom and for some reason my fone will install everything I will assume properly and i go to reboot it and it stays on the tmobile g1 screen.
I need help! I have tried and tried and Idk what to do now.
This all started bc I deleted something from the cm updater and my fone hasnt worked since...if ne one can help me plz email me @ [email protected]....
Thanx!

It's normal for it to seem to freeze at 98%, but it really will complete if you just wait a few minutes. No worries... just be patient.
If Stuck
hey if your phone is doesn't go through with the rom upgrade and doesn't push through and when you reboot you get stuck on the boot screen.
Put your phone into USB programming mode by holding the camera button down and doing a soft reset with the stylus. Then you will be able to load any rom you choose.
With regards to your frozen at 98 just give it time i would say don't unplug
same problem, still stuck
2nd time trying to load "Cingular_Custom_AKU2.3_Combo_Installer_V1.exe" ROM but still stuck at 98%...on the computer it says 100% and finishes but the phone is still stuck at 98%..tried to do a soft reset, but stuck at bootloader screen..
Help pleaseee!
Thanks!
I have a black rooted g1. Ive flashed it a couple of times everyrthin was good untill i flashed the 1.6 donut. When i did that i got a black/blank screen . So i did the recovery and then all i got was the start up ( u know were it shows how to use ur g1) so i try logging into my account and then i just got fore close after fore close and my phone wont respond to anything . All i can do is go to the boot loader. Ive tried flashin cm rom and samething goes. what did i do wrong what can i do to fix this? Helpppp! Inees my g1 and i dont have insurance. Im just happy that it is not bricked!
you might have lost root happened to a few people when they flashed the htc recovery. just boot into recovery wipe and reflash the rom is all else fails wipe ur partition
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...
hi,
I have a G1 that I got with unrooted 1.6
I followed instructions at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod to get CM 4.2 on the phone, that worked without any problems
I then installed DangerSPL and followed instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=672992 to get CM 5.0.7 installed, and that also worked.
When I installed ROM Manager to partition SD card for apps2sd, the phone would not boot any more, it kept getting stuck at the G1 / T-mobile screen
I then entered fastboot and reinstalled RC7 (DREAIMG.nbh)... that booted without a problem... I then re-flashed cm-recovery-1.4, went into recovery and installed cm 5.0.7 and gapps... I'm not sure but I may have skipped radio and danger this time around
since then the phone won't boot or enter recovery or enter fastboot... any attempts to boot into any of those results in the phone getting permanently stuck on the G1 / T-mobile screen
I'm out of ideas here, so any help would be greately appreciated.
thanks,

Why would you unroot just because a ROM wouldn't get past the G1 screen. Too bad you didn't post about that instead of completely unrooting and trying again.
Oh, you probably didn't miss danger spl the second time around and forgot to flash radio and now you're soft bricked. Sorry, there's nothing we can do.

How did you flash the RC29? Did you use the OEM recovery by holding the camera and power button?
