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.

did you try opening up the keyboard and then pressing 'alt' + the L key? I dunno if that will do anything when you are at the arrow place. Maybe it won't. Just trying to help.

about hero rom flashing

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.

Carphone Warehouse

So my phone is off for repair, because the screen is unresponsive on the right hand side.
Can't believe it.
Carphone Warehouse
woman: "so the screen is unresponsive?"
pause
woman: DROPPED MY FU*KIN PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
woman: "so where is it unresponsive?"
long pause, while i was thinking to say "well the whole FU*KING SCREEN NOW!"
me: "just along the right hand side"
woman: "have you got a phone for the meantime?"
me: "ye"
in my head: "ye, my 7 year old, trusty, never break, never give up, never defective, fu*kin solid HTC HIMALAYA (02 xda II) WINDOWS MOBILE BRICK!!!!!
woman: "so your phone should be repaired i about 14 days"
The good news is if the problem isn't fixed they will give me a brand new one.
Comments?
I am confused.
makes no sense
I think
woman: DROPPED MY PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
was meant to be
flyboyovyick DROPPED MY PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
I decided to edit due to the swearing...
I hope you get your phone back, and that you didn't give it to them with anything on it... you know, such as your google accoutn linked to market so they can download whatever apps they feel like?
the woman actually dropped my phone on the floor!!!
And before i give it them i wiped it.
Its just, when she dropped it she didn't apologise. Or check it for any damage.
So if it comes back damaged, i will be telling them that the woman in the shop dropped it.
lol Please don't hate me for this but Apple will replace and held hand device straight away if something is not working and is under warranty. That's the only good thing from them But anyway hope you get a replacment device, especialy considering the woman dropped your phone

Well i was aiming to get a refund so i can buy a san francisco.
But.... It hasn't worked out so far.
Still, i will see how it goes.
My HD2 has developed a problem with the screen too.
I want to give it in for repair, but I really cant be bothered waiting upto a month (tmobile) to get it replaced.
So I think Im going to be cheeky and ask them for a brand new phone insted, as HD2s are almost a year old (DesireHD pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaseee god!)
I doubt they will let it happen though...
Its shocking that the woman dropped your phone! I'd expect a brand new one there and then if that happened to me

cba to quote an earlier post, mainly as my work proxy had one hell of a seizure yesterday due to the language used... guess they changed some things!
But anyways - Sorry i misunderstood. Did you get the name of the carphone employee, and the time and date? That way if it comes back un repairable due to the damage from the dock you can pressure them to look at the CCTV to watch the fool drop your phone!
Hopefully you'll get a new phone, I don't know of many places that still sell your LG GT540.

I don't think that the gt540 is a popular phone. Probably why i got it for £109.99. I SO WANT A REFUND!!
Oh i have just remembered! the 3G doesn't work either!
Thanks for the tip! I will remember that and yes i know her name (as its on the leaflet)
I will tell you how it goes. In about

How can I brick my phone?!

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!

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 :/

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

Your phone is hard bricked due to lack of reading
You have to send it to Sony for repair or use JTAG service (which is very rare)
No other option it's dead
But If it's under warranty It can be repaired for free

I can't do it my self? I really need to do it today because I don't want to fight with my grandmather she doesn't give me a money anymore. :crying::crying:

Have you sent your phone to repair? If yes, how much does it cost?
Mine w8 is also hard bricked and i am thinking to send it to SONY to repair but scared that it will be very expensive
@awm123
If you send it to Sony and you have not warranty it'll be very expensive so why don't you send it to normal repair shop (non Sony)? They do it cheaper .
so many users hardbrick!! and so many user starting tons of threads with the same
cries,news and sad.
so many users didn't get to it (tutorial) properly and end up like this.
every X8 users always get hardbrick! because they always trying to unlock bootloader
no matter what is there manufacturing date even me too hardbricked my X8(12W06)
so if we are money crisis and didn't prepare properly for this dangerous work.
and not end up like this even worse.
some tips for prevent hardbrick or get out of it quickly:
1) TRY to control your fun/excited and eagerness to try newer android version ROMS like 4.0 and 4.1
and some feature packed kernel.(this the main reason why our brain shut down our simpleness and satisfyness.)
2)don't try to unlock bootloader in X8 11W29+ manufacture date
-if you want to try the luck,no matter how is your 11WXX/12Wxx
do it before your warranty ends! otherwise it will cost you
3)be prepared mentally and don't burst in to cry if you hardbricked!
4)save some money in your pocket before hardbrick! in case it will cost you massively
if you don't have warranty.
i tried all of this and have less stress when hard bricked my X8!
Sorry for my really bad English, hope you can understand it.

The problem is when somebody 'must' try it, but 'I won't touch it until warranty ends'.
Idiots. Warranty is greatest stronghold when trying these. There are 3 options while under warranty and you try something dangerous:
1: everything works fine
2: you kill your phone, but it can be repaired by Flashtool
3: hardbrick. They can not tell it was you who caused it. In most of the cases (when they even try it) they will erase and rewrite the flash, so every sign of your stupidness is destroyed. And even if they only rewrite S1boot, the only thing they will find out is that the phone was rooted.
Don't worry, I won't kill you.
I just show you the way to a second life.

i really can't understand what you say, but i completely didn't like the way you describe you used the word like
idiots and Kill you i hate that word because it irritating someone and the words are arrowing someone .
if you kill your phone it can't be repaired by Flashtool!
hey,you need warranty for repairing it for free of charge or with charge in mobile shop!
OR ALSO POSSIBLE WITH JTAG
warranty is really a big plus point! you can HARDBRICK! 10 TIMES AND USE YOUR WARRANTY TEN TIMES!
SONY WILL NOT (KILL US) IF THEY KNOW WE ARE THE CAUSE FOR THE H-BRICK.
because the rules is SONY need to re-alive Sony made phones! in 1 year warranty time.
