if you have the 1.33.0010, but after you get the 1.33.2005 spl it reverts to the first thread.
it is going to take setting up adb/fastboot to root your phone.
look in the stickies for how to set up adb

i suggest reading some more. to root rogers requires using fastboot. use the one click method (second link) to get the 1.33.2005 spl on your phone, then set up adb/fastboot then follow the fastboot commands in the first link, after that you can flash any ROM to your phone. the hardest part is setting up adb. which there it is getting your computer to recognize your phone.

do you need help finding the search option on the top of the page?
or maybe clicking the STICKY links that say
Don't Start A New Thread - Dream Questions & Answers Here!
and
***Informative Links*** - Read before clicking "New Thread" [08/28]
and even
[GUIDE] ADB, Fastboot, and Nandroid for Noobs
or maybe you just happened to pass up page 1 but didn't need help finding the "New Thread" link.
Look. I'm not trying to be a douche but if you want to get help then why don't you try doing it yourself instead of asking us to do it for you. If you want to mail me your G1 and I'll root it for you. Hell... I'll even partition your sd card to your liking. Just pay the s&h and $50. Otherwise you can save your time and money (and ours) by SEARCHING AND READING. You obviously know how to type so I assume you know how to read. You know how to post new threads so I'm sure you can easily click a link. Just combine searching, clicking and reading and you'll save a lot of time instead of waiting for someone to spoon feed you.

If you have no clue what your doing, then don't do it. Chances are you will mess it up. But if you really want to ROOT. THEN READ READ READ READ READ READ READ READ.

Help!
Sooo I recently bought a htc dream from rogers and got it unlocked, I was reading and trying to understand how this rooting process works, but somehow ended up with t mobile g1 on my phone, it works just fine and I still access to everything, but now I cannot find a way to change it back to its normal state (firmware) or even how to root it, in its current state. I would really appreciate some help! Thanks!

[Q] I need help from the radio and the spl!

I want to use Haykuro ROM 6.0r1 but I need help from the radio and the spl!
What do I do first how do I do it?!?! Please help me! thanks

You need to install the radio first, then the SPL. I HIGHLY suggest you do some reading before you attempt anything. Once and IF you brick your phone, there is no going back.
search for it. its all over the place.
i know that but i was hoping someone could help me on here and i have read many ways of doing this i was thinking about updating the radio first and then erasing that then putting on the spl what do i do to keep it from bricking lol i have already bricked one but i think i did the spl first
calm down and read bro
the information thread on this forum explains it all beggining at getting root access (DONT SKIP STEPS TRUST ME I KNOW) after i got all the way too rc33 from jesus frekes rom (found on the how to obtain root thread) then i updated the radio found at the htc website and then new spl(just type in new radio + spl) its alot prolly will take you a couple of hours
start out at how to obtain root - if you have that already then get the new radio from htc website and then get Hspl from one of these threads started by Haykuro
i know its tuff to get help all ppl wanna do is tell you to search without even giving you an idea
If you have already bricked one device i would suggest you stop modding your phone. Or maybe just search and actually read the forum.... (hint: there is a big sticky called "helpful thread", that may be a good place to get help)
i know what your saying i have all this done but i have trouble figuring out the spl lol. when its done do i click home and back or do i take my sd out and put the haykuro's 6.0r1 rom?

flash spl leave it there dont touch the anything take the sd put it in your computer if you have a card reader throw in the rom - put the sd back in your phone flash the update.zip and your good
if anyone wants to challenge my instructions feel free
ok since you dont wanna search. hit home and back. let it finish writing the spl before pulling the battery. you have to reapply a rom afterward so have a sd card reader handy....
please don't make another thread if you brick your phone. this thread is in the wrong section.

I personally would advise against using Haykuro's ROM. It's totally nothing against Haykuro at all, it just seems to me that you need to add more files to your system than any other ROM, which obviously provides a higher chance of bricking your phone, which I also have read as happening when doing so.
I would suggest you try Cyanogen's ROMs. There are links to all that you'll need in my signature if you decide to do that.
Agreed. If I were you i'd mess with the spl you have for now. Once you're comfortable flashing roms and themes and doing other mods to your phone then maybe, just maybe take the plunge. You'll notice a lot of people want to try the "new spl/rom" combination but, when it comes down to it most revert back to a different rom. Browse the forums for a minute and look at sigs. A lot more seem happy with JF's or cyan's rom. The larger roms are "cool" but just not meant to run on the G1/Dream.
Before doing anything do it like six times on paper, compare one provided solution to then next to make sure they jive, read past the solution a few pages to see if something was left out a later added to the thread(sometimes the OP doesn't update their post). Learn the terms and what they do
Also on the you're still a noob front, if you wish to rise above that some research is required. Questions are good and can help in a pinch but for general info (the stuff you should know before attempting to mod anything) it's more productive from a learning point to figure out the answer for yourself. I'm not just saying to search then copy/paste, but research and get an understanding what your doing. If you have no clue what you're doing then even when given an accurate solution there's still a good chance you will do something wrong.
Heh, not trying to flame ya, just help ya become a better modder. The spl and radio are core components of the G1's software and can easily get you into trouble. Roms on the other hand are an easy fix if fubar'd. Good luck..

I ^%%* it up

Guys, I don't have the original image and the only image I have on my SDcard is eclair 2.0-1.2
I am just upset with the OP for providing insufficient instructions and I am very unaware of the previous setup required before doing it so.
I am in recovery mode and my G1 keeps rebooting over and over since I wipe the factory default.
I apologize for not using the search button because I don't see any answers, or maybe I just want direct answer.
Sorry, I have to ask this, how do I recover the image on my G1? I have it connected to my PC but it's currently in recovery mode right now.
Please provide me detailed step to step what I need to do. Thank you for your time and effort, this is upsetting me big time.

Brick=cant turn on G1 pr G1 is stuck @ Splash screen
Gotta give props for the thread title ... is very attracting ... lol
Stop blaming the guys making the ROMS for your own F-up.
Learn to read the instructions.
ALL of them.
Don't blame them for the fact you didn't read THIS :
first you will need these things haykuro spl,ext3/linux-swap if you dont have it and if you do wipe them clean
The please provide links for those kinds of software.
I am really upset that no one will help me

You should be upset at yourself for not reading the clear instructions that are inherent in nearly every ROM update procedure. READ the instructions.

Searching forums before diving blindly into processes like these will certainly save you frustration and a bricked device. Again, blaming someone else for your laziness isn't exactly the route you should take.

If u r using stock recovery u should b serching for something like Fastboot or adb, if u using cyan's or RA's recovery that just find different room to flash.It would b nice to know Phones specs...SPL, Radio, REcovery etc. just like what i got in my sig.
For future references post in Q&A thread or where is the ROM u flashed is, Provide some info if u need help.

Since you're too cocky and too ignorant to do most of the things on here, I suggest you put your phone back to stock as soon as you figure out how to flash images. Get the "recovery image" from here http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html, then go ahead and get a card reader, drop the file on the reader, rename it update.zip, boot into recovery, alt+s to flash it, alt+w to wipe, then reboot.

ok then go here and set up adb after u done follow the link in my sig to flash RA 1.5.2 recovery. After u get RA recovery find the rom u need to flash id suggest Cyans rom or WG and make sure ur SPL and RAdio is uptodate.
Good luck.

Me and Ace42 spent around 2 pages in manups thread trying to help only to be told '**** You' we have given him all the links to help him yet still he does not listen and proceeds to be rude and obvoxious.

@OP
Turn off your phone.
Press and hold the camera and end button at the same time until a screen pops up.
if it says
HBOOT - 1.33.2005
and the Radio is x.xx.xx.26I (the "x" stands for the numbers before 26I I forgot what they were lol)
if they both say that then you are good in that department.
Just put the zip file onto the root of your sdcard and flash via Recovery

Dear sir and sirs,

I own the G1 and it took a good while to root my phone. In the process I only made it to cup cake and now I'm stuck. Dream_Devphone DRC83 debug deal is what I'm using and when I try to reset, I get the android on skateboard scenery and after pressing the power and camera key. Please help me to resolve this problem. Your kindness would be greatly appreciated. I would also like to go beyond all the roms in order to learn about the android world. Please help me.

you should search for
g1 root
and if you can't get enough info with that
then give up
you don't have what it takes.
now... where did I leave my marshmallows?
Go to the theunlockr.com. They have good tutorials. Good luck dude.
Follow the steps...
Follow the steps on this site to root your phone...you say you got back to cupcake (1.5) right...ok, then you are going in the right direction. I used these to root my phone a while back. The link actually starts @ donut and goes back, but you can find the cupcake instructions on there also. Remember to be patient...it will happen eventually. Hope that helps.
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/15/how-to-root-a-donut-phone-android-1-6/
If your phone is truly rooted, just flash a donut or eclair rom? I don't really understand the issue here...
There are a million how-to's here and everywhere else.
It's a complicated process so there is no "easy" answer. I almost gave up a few times in the process but I made it. If I can do it you can too. This is the wrong forum to get help from. I think you want the G1 Q&A forum.
Welcome to XDA-Devs. Search is your friend
Search for Amon Ra's recovery, and flash that. From there, you can easily partition your SD card, and flash ROMs. Also, since you are on the G1, search for and read the thread about flashing the Danger SPL if you want to be able to run some of the bigger ROMs like hero, and some of the eclair roms.

you should have a recovery image installed, if not,install amon ra's. then boot into RECOVERY BY HOLDING HOME AND POWER. DON'T BOOT USING CAMERA AND POWER, THAT PUTS YOU INTO FASTBOOT.

If he's "not sure what to read", then he needs to do further research. Why are we the bad guys when people just go barrelling though steps and when they realized they missed a step and now they have a fancy new paperweight, they freak out and ignore the rules of the Development section, which, if I remember correctly, is for development, and not for questions. There is a specific section for questions, aptly titled the Q&A section.

Help with rooted N1 wont take 2.2.1 update

Hey everyone,
I rooted my nexus one when it was 2.2, now im trying to update to 2.2.1. However the OTA update wasnt taking, it failed and the installation aborted everytime. I search forums and found one saying to factory reset my phone, which i did. Saved everything with titanium backup. Now im stuck with:
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Kernal version:2.6.29-01117-g4bc62c2 android-build apa26#1
Build nuumber: EPE76
One problem is i do not get an OTA update to upgrade to 2.2 or 2.2.1. Also i did a manual update with signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24.zip and it fails and installation aborts. How can i get back to at least 2.2, but preferably 2.2.1.
Also when trying to restore my apps from titanium backup, it tells me my phone is not rooted, but I still see the little "padlock" unlocked when i boot my phone.
Thanks, hope someone can help
John

im assuming that zip wont work because im on build epe 76. Whats the best way from here to get to at least 2.2
It sounds like you need to do some reading. Look at the Nexus One wiki that's linked at the top of this forum. Read everything it has to say, then re-read.
Your questions are answered.
Not to mention the wrong forum. This is development, not Q&A.
Cheers and g/l
wiki page doesnt help at all
just read the wiki page twice, as you said. There is nothing about how to fix this issue. Sooooooooooo.....??????
i have 50+ forums and googled this issue 10+ times, not having any luck....If you cant help can you direct where i can find help????
Lol, the wiki wont show you the exact issue being resolved. You need to think between the lines, do some problem solving. Nobody on this forum is going to spoon-feed you the answer you look for.
Everything I know about the Nexus One (and Android in general) is from these forums. You aren't looking hard enough if you can't find the info you need.
So please, have enough sense next time to at least post in the correct sub-forum, instead of coming in filled with piss and vinegar making a fool of yourself.

1. You haven't given enough information for anyone to help direct you.
2. It sounds like your bootloader is unlocked, but you lost root. Or maybe your recovery (whichever that is) won't allow an unsigned zip.
3. But once again, this is the wrong forum. This is not the place for you to go into further detail. All it will do is piss people off who are trying to work on development, but have to wade through beggar spam. So please stop.
this is the wrong thread for what you need...mod needs to move it. Take it easy guys, he's just looking for help.
If you have Terminal Emulator from Market installed, type this:
at the $ type su ($su)
it should change to # sign
at # type whoami (#whoami)
it should replay back with "root"
If not, you have lost root and you will need to re-root your device. Please open a thread in Q&A to ask further questions.
