about hero rom flashing - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

I would get your money back from the numbnut that you hired to do the root.

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.

Psychiatrist?

Something about these PPC, I just fall in love with. I had my wizard few years ago. Been through everything together. Getting girl's numbers, text messaging friends, and everything a phone should do. Became my best friend. Then when my phone got soaked in Gatorade, there was no way of recovering it. Felt like I lost a friend. I actually cried that night.
Now I have a kaiser and already a month, something about these phones, I'm starting to fall in love with. When I play around with my phone and people came up to me and ask me if its a sidekick or an iphone, i feel like the phone has been insulted. No one makes fun of my phone like that!!! There are even times I start talking to my phone and playing around with it for no apparent reason. Am I a psycho or is this normal behavior?
Am I the only psycho here?

When people ask me if my phone is an iPhone, I try to limit the nauseus feeling in my stomach and inform them that my phone actually serves a purpose other than emptying my wallet.

You're not alone.... here's another true geek, picking up my phone a few times every hour just to check if the todayscreen is still there... or to change the theme and change it back after an hour...
It's my best friend and you know what? it'll never cheat on me or start talking back

Of course it wouldn't. It knows how easily you could get another phone just like it were it to betray you in such a manner. LOL
It's kinda funny actualy. I try to limit my showing off of my phone to my parents and close friends, but they blab more about it to people than I do... They tell me that the first thing the people they tell is "must be an iPhone...". they usualy reply, "No, he doesn't touch anything made my apple..."

Hacking/Flashing my Tilt phone....

I am getting my kaiser tomorrow, and was wondering something. Why should i hack/flash it? I have an Ipod touch jailbroken, and really the only thing it allows me to do is get a few cool games for free and some utilities. That is about it.
I want to put some games on it, from some freepcmobile site. I want to use it for pictures and playing music.
So, should i even bother flashing it? What will that get me? That xda site is so in depth, there must be something I am missing.

Hmmm are you serious?
First, look here.....
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading
Secondly, hacking/flashing does several things for you...as you would have read within the first page of the wiki. Changing the rom allows you to remove the bloatware manufacturers load into the operating system. This therefore increases storage and memory for your device to operate on which makes the phone faster. Changing SPL ( the bootloader ) allows you to CID unlock your phone.... allowing you to use any carriers GSM card inside, as well as makes your phone more valuable for resale. If these things dont appeal to you, then by all means, stick with the manufacturer forums and keep your stock roms. If youre not familiar with flashing and the likes, or are worried about breaking ( bricking ) your Kaiser, then its best to leave well enough alone and keep all the bloatware ( factory installed advertisements / ect )
Hope this helps
I did not mean to sound like an idiot, because i know I get irritated when something I know so well, then someone asks such a noob question.
However, thank you for all of the info. A lot of forums, if i would post this question, people would just yell. I did check the xda website, and seeing there was so much info, i was not sure where to start.
I dont care about unlocking the phone, and as far as bloatware, i may go ahead and flash it and remove, but maybe not for a few weeks. I am going to get an 8GB card, or maybe try and find a 16GB card. They seem to be very hard to find.

I would leave it alone until you KNOW that you need/want to flash it.
You need to get to know what you like and don't like about the TILT. How does it currently work. The manufacturers give you a pretty good phone. If it had LOTS of problems they would not release it. So it will be stable.
The problem is that those of us who have flashed their phone got tired of the perceived slowness, or wanted it to work differently, or wanted to add a different interface... (ad nauseum) - this does not mean it is inherently "better" merely that it now works more like WE wanted it to work.
So - get your phone and have fun - and when you are TOTALLY convinced the that only thing that will make you happy is a new interface do your research - then do some more - READ all the WIKI's and STICKYs - you can "brick" your phone (make it unuseable) and if you simply post a note here that says help - I tried to flash my phone and it does not work you are likely to get yelled at if it is perceived that you simply did it without reading.
Hope this helps,
Bill
I don't think you should hack your phone.

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.

Éclair ROM?

Does anybody know when we might get a Éclair ROM? I'm already bored with Donut and seeing the screen shots is like
"¡DAMN!"
Btw, I searched! So please don't yell at me. =)
No one has ported the Éclair dump yet, so no ROM.

Do you know how long it usually takes for the ROM to be developed?
Eclair has been dumped but not with the release keys only test keys. I'd say it's just a matter of time now that the Droid has an official release date.
Does Eclair = Android 2.0?

If you follow the thread, you'll see that they are very, very close to getting it to successfully boot. That said, once they do, you still will not be flashing it to your phone (unless you are very unwise). Just getting it to boot doesn't mean that it will be anything close to usable. Developing a ROM is an active process. It starts out a total unusable mess, and grows into, say, what CyanMod is now. (I've used every experimental Cyan release since the 3.x days, and it used to be kinda messy)

Well they gotta hurry up man. I have 4 days off school and I can't wait. I want to start the week with a fresh new ROM in my pocket and Eclair looks so delicious I can't wait its killing me I check the website every 3 seconds!

I read these forums too much before bed.

Last night I was reading before bed...caused some interesting dreams. Seems I was trying to flash my dog to the newest version of Atrix GB but was worried about bricking him and how to recover. Apparently I did a decent job as my dog is still working today (I verified this by calling him and he came right over .) I'm not sure of the particulars as parts of the dream are fuzzy. Don't know how I hooked him up to the computer (or how I planned to). Not sure of the software needed to upgrade the dog (if someone could point me in the right direction?) Still not sure how to reboot him or pull his battery (this info would be useful every once in a while lol). Just a weird dream. Figured someone else would get a laugh/grin/snicker/go-to-hell/etc out of it.
Good night all. Hopefully I WON'T dream about this place anymore.
We be xda, staying in your dreams wether you want us to or not
By the way, nice dream Very funny.
-Remember, Android hell is a real place and you will be sent there at the first sign of defiance-
that was a funny dream , tbh , XDA is sticky thing in your life , if not see how many posts i have and i'm still posting lol , helping ppl and get knowledge is a part of XDA ,, i'm loven it
