I just need clarification if you will.
I wish to downgrade my radio from 2.22.23.02 back to 2.22.19.26I. Is it just the same process as flashing the radio to upgrade? also is there only one version on of the earlier radio? Here's my Bootloader :
UK Vodafone
sapphire PVT 32B ship s-on g
HBOOT- 1.33.0004 (SAPP100000)
CPLD-10
RADIO -2.22.23.02
Thanks in advance.......
Yup, just apply it like you would an upgrade and you'll be fine
Well, I cant downgrade the radio via recovery, and fastboot gives me the old chesnut of :
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
Does this mean I'm going to have to flash an engineering SPL? Thought this wasn't necessary with the magic?
Can anyone help please?

Try a different file, sounds like the one you got may have been corrupt.
Tried downloading the radio from a different location and flashing via recovery and fastboot still no joy. What to do?scared to flash an eng spl really.
*Bump*
I'm still at a loss with this
If you are installing custom anything, you should DEFINITELY have an engineering SPL.
So can anyone tell me how to do this?
Should I just flash the custom spl then downgrade the radio or what? I have read extensively but cant really find the answer
Have you tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625886
You should flash the radio/spl through fastboot, not recovery. If this doesn't work tell us what error you get.
I cant downgrade the radio via recovery, and fastboot gives me the old chesnut of

I'm sorry I don't know what that would cause that other than a corrupt file.
Problem SOLVED!!! Thanks Cursdroid for you guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=726258

Long question short.
Is there anyway to downgrade the HBOOT file?
I have my bootloader unlocked, and trying to use the "fastboot flash" command does not work because it says "FAILED <remote: signature verify fail>". There seems to be work on Desire, but I haven't found a solution with N1. Does anyone know how to do this?
Longer Story
So it all started here with my stupidity and carelessness.
The flash image for the N1 released in Korea is out, and I flashed it changing the name to passimg.zip and flashed it via the recovery.
Everything seemed fine...only when I found out that this has a new HBOOT file.
Currently my bootloader screen reads
NEXUSONE PVT SHIp S-ON
HBOOT-0.35.0017
MICROP-0b15
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0103
Radio-4.02.02.14
Jun 14 2010, 12:02:27
So the date on the last line has been updated to Jun 14 2010, and the HBOOT image has also been upadated to a "0.35.0017" from the "HBOOT-0.33.0012." Through what I've been searching, I think this is the one and only ROM which has been released with the new HBOOT version.
The Problem is, with this new HBOOT version, I cannot flash the newly released cyanogen MOD, because the MOD checks the HBOOT version and says that it does not match my version.
With the device unlocked (bootloader unlocked), I can execute every other commands, such as flashing the recovery, system, radio, but I still cannot touch the HBOOT filed which is continuously blocking the flashes.
So, does anyone know how to work with this? Thanks in advance, I'll really appreciate any help.
Why not flash the original PASSIMG for eclare then update from there.

Thanks for the advice, I've already tried it but it didn't work. I get the "update failed" message, probably because the eclare PASSIMG has an older hboot file than the *dammed" new Korean N1 ROM file... Still, thanks for that advice.

you *COULD* see if you can modify the update script to bypass hboot check. im pretty sure thats only there so people dont flash it on phones which the rom is not meant for

Yes, that will most likely work. Turning off asserts in clockworkmod recovery before flashing will probably work too.

I understand your advice, but I guess I'm stuck with my abilities. I opened the "update-script" file, deleted the whole part that has the "assert...", but still didn't work. I'm getting the same error message.
Maybe I'm modifying the updates-script in the wrong way...but thanks anyway.

I also tried that option (and also thanks for replying also at the development posting). Got the clocworkmod recovery, toggled the script asserts to show that "script asserts: disabled" shows up, but still the process didn't seem to work.
Thanks anyway! I'll try to see what else can be done with this.

The adb shell commands should only work with your bootloader unlocked, and with a rooted ROM (a ROM that has Supers User access).
OK so finally loaded a ROM (SuperFast1.3.3RHJ.zip) but found it was actually kind of slow...sorry. So I thought I would load another ROM (TMUS-G1-Froyo-CM6Remix.zip) so from the "phone with !" I did a ALT+W the proceeded to install the ROM, but after in finished successfully i rebooted with HOME+BACK, and it went into the "phone !" pulled battery and tried again, no go tried installing another ROM (SuperF-1.zip) same way but still getting stuck on the "phone with!" I can get to the "three skateboarders" but ROM wont load.
PLEASE HELP

Did you seriously ask him his phone model when you are in the G1 Q&A AND it says it in the title? And clockwork is better IMHO. More seamless installations.

Catch me on my irc channel, link in sig.
And yes I did ask him even when it said it right there in front of me, it's called skimming the post and the fact mt3g users use this forum also.
ok, so I'm trying to go back and unroot, because of multiple tries with help of shadowch31 to load good recovery no go. followed this guide: http://theunlockr.com/2010/09/23/how-to-unroot-the-htc-g1-dream/
did the spl and that went through but when i try and do the DREAIMG.nbh it goes to the tri color and jumps to the white loading screen for a second and then over to the tri color screen, I think it's not recognizing the file. PLEASE HELP
I have a Rogers Dream/G1 with T-Mobile rc29 rom (doh!), which works and is usable but I want to get back to CM5. Please show me the way or put me out of my misery if its hopeless.
Recovery hangs at Tmobile G1 screen.
Fastboot gives me "00028002 Not Allow" code then is stuck with serial0.

Tried Adb to get amon-ra 1.7.0, but still won't boot into recovery and is stuck at G1 screen. No memory error, just an immediate echo of the "flash_image recovery data/local/recovery.img" command after I hit enter.
fastboot won't show my device in cmd when at the 4colored screen but adb does recognize.
I'm pretty sure I mixed up the radio and spl, but does having access to the OS give me any options?
Please, point me in the right direction.
****SOLVED**** see Post#20 for my conclusion.
Download clockwork recovery, flash clockwork, then you'll have recovery?
Not sure tho, I think this was how I did it.
I think what you're talking about is ROM Manager, it includes Clockwork Recovery if I understand the dev's description correctly. I haven't tried it myself though.
Seems to me, that he is on a stock ROM and doesn't have root access.
If the phone is booting, a chance could be, to install 1-click-root (don't know how it is called exactly, but you can google for it) and then from there to install a custom recovery. After that, you can install CM5 or something else. Probably first I would install is an engineering SPL (1.33.2003 for example) which supports fastboot. With your current SPL you will not have a chance to get fastboot running.
But be careful: 1.33.2003 supports only radio version 1.x and 2.x. I am not sure if 1.33.2003 is the best solution for you, because you have a rogers dream.
i recomend the old way.. get the fflashrecapk. and use io file manager to flash it.. only problem is you need to be 1.5 if your on 1.6 than you need to downgrade.. but that would be difficult since you have no recovery lol
While a bit more work.. before all the how to's confuse you into bricking your phone, I'd make yourself a gold card, and use it to flash the orange nbh from the 2708+ thread.. (rename to DREAIMG.nbh and place on the goldcard, then boot with camera+power it will ask you to flash it)
Once you have the orange rom you will have fastboot and a 2.x radio.. if you don't need the 3.22 radio .. just flash the 2708+ radio+spl+hboot as per normal followed by a rom.. if you do need the 3.22 radio (rogers customer who has not signed the wavier and wishes to keep data) either flash the rogers e911 update and re-root or 1.33.2005+3.22.26.17 and a rom
Sorry lack of links.
is it rooted?
maybe you can flash the recovery through terminal
Thanks for the replies, lots to research.
I'v tried a bunch of rooting methods.
exploid pushed from ADB said it worked (but didnt)
SuperOneClick said it worked after some rapid OFF-ON-OFF-ON debugging(but didnt install superuser even after reboot)
Universal androot forcecloses on launch
flashrec has the "download cyan...." button blocked out, tried renaming amon-ra to the recovery-backup.img and it said successful, but still is stuck at g1 screen.
I found another post with someone in the same situation at:

ok ummm wow you did a lot lol are you sure you did the flaskrec.apk thing right? so as of right now your phone is not rooted? and you are on 1.0? if thats the case you should get automatic updates and hopefully that could help you.. if not try downloading rom manager than flash the clockwork recovery.. personally i hate clockwork but if you can get that to work than i could help you get back to RA if you would like..
Well its a one-click solution, I must have missed the options... I installed it and ran the back up, but the "download" button was grayed out. was I supposed to do something with the entry field?
Rom Manager gives me "Application install unsuccessful" using AndExplorer and I think Clockwork gave me this problem in the first place back when I was using CM6.

I think Ezterry's post (#6) is your best option
you don't mention you have tried that
you will need to do some research into goldcards and finding the orange.nbh link
hint for the orange see threads started by ezterry (via his profile) look at the kernel for 2708 thread
Ok thanks, I'v got my gold card made but is safe to flash 1.33.200* SPL with 1.22.12.29 Radio? Isnt it a DangerSPL? Sorry if thats way off base.

for the record
1.33.2003 is compatible with 1.x and 2.x radios but will brick with 3.x
1.33.2005 is compatible with 2.x and 3.x radios but will brick with 1.x
so 1.33.200* is only compatible with 2.x
read Ezterry's 2708 post, the answers you seek are in it
sorry for delay lol but with the flashrec file wat you do is press backup than when your typing in the box you have to put exactly what your file says...
ex.. sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.0.7-cyan.img (yours could be diff but make sure you type exactly what your file says that you placed on sd card) hope it helps
You guys are awesome, thank you everyone who was interested and especially ezterry, Effdee and Idrifta for the enduring help. I'm now on CM5.0.8 2708+ and loving it.
Final issue, I'm wondering about going to EBI1 to get 3.22 radio. Is it as simple as updating hboot to 1.33.2010 then flashing 3.22? Is it worth doing?

Why ebi1 is equivalent to the old ebi0 and you loose the extra ram.

Best stay as is or upgrade the radio to 2.22.28.25.. As it has been distributed world wide. (Including to all locations 2.22.27.08 was previously distributed)
what did you do?
I would like to know if you solved this issue as mine is similar. I DO have root though, but i have no recov/fastboot. I am using a dev phone though.

If you flashed 0.95.0000 you are no longer using a dev phone (what do you see when you boot holding camera?)
The good news is that the ADP1 used the universal CID (11111111) and is thus not restricted to a particular carriers nbh file.. so you can probably just flash the orange nbh without the goldcard [just renamed DREAIMG.nbh on the root of your SDCard], then follow the 2708+ radio instructions.. or install 1.33.2003/5 via fastboot if you need the old radio.
The reason I'm pointing to the orange nbh is it will let you bypass the whole "I bricked my phone because I insisted on flashing death SPL via recovery" since you have an engineering SPL and 2.x radio after flashing that orange NBH from the 2708+ thread.
This is what worked for me, going from:
- a non responsive recovery
- OS locked at activation, so no usb debugging
- OS refused to root
- quadicolored fastboot screen that wouldnt recognize usb
To CM5 2708+ with RA-cyan1.7.
Before this thread I had to use this to get post the verizon data plan only activation to enable usb debugging.
Made a goldcard
Put the orange nbh renamed to DREAIMG.nbh (can't remember where i got it from, just searched) on the goldcard, Booted with camera+power to get fastboot, and applied the update.
Followed ezterry's post and at step 5 flipped over to this post on CM5 2708+

What exactly does it look like when you get not allowed? And what exactly did you flash to downgrade?
I think you have a UK version (Drea110), so the RC7 should flash you back to stock. Did you extract the zip and rename the file to DREAIMG.NBH?
Do you have fastboot installed on your PC? I've never used the stock hboot (0.95.0000)- will it let you flash system and recovery images via fastboot?
Stock SPL and HardSPL are not fastboot capable, to get full fastboot support you need for example 1.33.2003 or 1.33.2005, some others (like 1.33.0013d) may support some fastboot commands.

yeah 0013d only supports fastboot erase commands, but cannot flash img files via fastboot
but his problem is his device wont let him flash the nbh files... so im thinking either the sdcard is not FAT32 or to try the orange.nbh it a temporrary fastboot spl so he can flash radio, recovery and spl quickly right?
Ok, thanks for all the help, but have noo idea what yall are talking about.. I have not nstalled fastboot to my pc, how do i do that? And whatndo i do? Is there a tut around somewhere?
Since you have the stock hboot, it seems as if fastboot will be of limited use for you. If you are still curious, search around xda- there are plenty of guides.
