After uninstalling astrid task manager my phone rebooted then started to boot loop (g1 screen then reboot).
I went into cyanogens recovery image (1.3.1) and I get E: Can't open CACHE. I can't do anything it's just stuck at this to reboot I have to take the battery out.
From what I've read I should be able to reformat my sd card and then it should work. Is this true? Assuming it does will I have to reapply the cyanogenmod image to get my phone working again?
Only problem is that I can't get XP or Win 7 to recognise the sd card anymore. I *should* be getting a new one tomorrow though.
I still have access through adb is there anything I can do before I get a new sd card?
I'm running:
HardSPL + Latest radio
Cyanogens Recovery Image 1.3.1
Cyanogens Mod 1.3.6.1
Update - I can get in via adb definitley now, I can mount the sd card and all the files are still there but I still have no idea how to recover to a workable phone.

So recovery mode isn't starting at all? Try booting the phone without the SD card in. It might give you a lot of errors, but might be able to get you to boot in the first place. That's first priority.

I can get into recovery mode but the only command that works is Alt + L.
I don't have my phone on me because I'm at work but will try it later tonight.
Thank you very much!
Try to do a wipe. Alt+w. If that doesnt work i suggest getting into fastboot and flashing the cyanogen recovery image 1.3.1. Instruction are in the thread for fastboot. To get into fastboot press (Camera + Power) if that doesnt work try (Back + Power).
I tried to do a wipe but no luck.
Is fastboot the three skateboarding android guys I've heard of?
At the moment I'm just trying to get a lot of information so when I go home I can make a start at fixing it.
So far I really love the attittude of people on the forum, it's pretty awesome.
Argh when I try to boot into fastboot I just get the normal tricolour screen and not 3 android skating guys.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm using the hardspl btw
OK so I've done some more reading, I apparently need the engineering spl for fastboot. Which is ok but I can't get the recovery console to work to flash a new spl. This is really frustrating.
Arg so according to the spl thread I have the stock spl which sucks because I could have sworn I used the hardspl, I have the files on my hdd for gods sake. So now if I'm correct I'm ****ed. I looked over the Hayuko guide I used and it definitely said HardSPL (http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cach...=35&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk&client=firefox-a).
I'm stuck now.
Last post before I go to bed. I hope someone can help. If I don't hear anything then I'm off to t-mobile to see if I can get a new phone. If they can't then it's off to ebay.
You'll need the engineering spl or hard spl to flash a rom have you ever flashed a modified rom. Or are you stock. Do you have a2sd. I would imagine if your able to get to fastboot or some kinda recovery your not bricked. You can get an insurance replacement and use that phone as a test phone. Its fixable, need some more info.

I figured out what happened. I updated to the latest radio which pretty much reset my spl.
My SPL is now stock but still working, recovery image isn't though, main os isn't either.
Is it possible to flash Hard SPL from the normal SPL.
Try putting DREAIMG.nbh at the root of your sdcard and go into your spl and flash it.

Succesful now booting into android

Spoke too soon when it gets to the android screen it still reboots
I can get into android but it keeps rebooting.
You said a few posts back you have adb setup, what does logcat say is goin on when it reboots.

Your computer is probably not reading it because it's may not be assigned a drive letter. Try this... Go to control panel...Administrative tools...Computer management...Disk management...scroll down until you see your sd card partition. Right click on it and there should be something there that says assign a drive letter. Maybe this could help.

I hit enter key twice on home screen. it does nothing. then i type telnetd it searches for that contact. i hit enter once. then i hit home. then i download telnet. i type exactly whats in the guide. then reboot and hold power home it hangs at tmobile g1. i reinstalled the nbh 2 times already so thats not the issue anymore. I can get to basic setup but not recovery. if i just hit power button it goes to regular home. if i hold home and power it hangs. it hung all night on charger last night. and i did it agian now and its hanging
Are you following this guide.

I actually had to un root and and im trying to re root.
my phone messed up big time but it wasnt brciked. I couldnt get to recovery b4 I unrooted or now
I had the new radio and the newest spl 10.95.3000 or something like that. but now im back on stock. Tmobile told me they will push out the 1.6 not the cupcake to me in 3 days so i cant even wait to get cupcake to do one click...im ****ed bro i need help lol
So what happens when you type the commands in telnet for the recovery image.
I hit enter after each one and it moves to next command line. nothing else. after the final one i hangs for like half a second like it did something. but its so fast unless you pay attention you wont notice it. then i immediately hit home key then power off and try to go to recovery where it hangs. but if i don't try to go to recovery it wont hang it boots fine.
I would try to redownload the recovery image. What was the initial problem why you unrooted and want to root back.
k ill try to. Re do the recovery image. And see what happens

It kind of sounded like your recovery went bad somehow, but can't say for sure. The first thing I would have tried would have been to reflash the recovery while you still had root access but I know you already flashed RC29. Another thing you can try is the one click method and see if that will work so you don't have to go thru telnet.
I thought I cant one click root in rc29? Only cupcake?

OK so i had a HTC Dream with supergingerbread or something installed with
SPL: 1.33.0013d (hboot)
RADIO: 2.22.27.08 / 28.25
It drained battery while i was doing something at 4 hours, and 12 hours on idle and only on idle.
I decided to install superfroyo 2.6 but it gave me a error ( status 7 ) on my recovery.
I thought it might have been because of the SPL and RADIO so i tried to install DeathSPL and RADIO 3.22.26.17 and the guide i was following told me to install the radio first which i did. after i finished flashing the radio my phone told me to reboot and so i did. an android with a download bar showed up and in the next 5 seconds i could boot at all, stuck at rogers screen and fastboot or recovery wont boot up.
At times tho i get passed the rogers screen but then all i get is a black screen and sometimes there bars going across the screen probably because it thinks i flipped the screen or something ( accelerometer is acting up =/.
any help would be appreciated like maybe a cheap jtag place nearby toronto thats cheap or maybe even a more dangerous/less reliable option since i have nothing to lose =/.
thank you
I know you mentioned that it won't go into fastboot (back+power). Just want to know. What happends when you hold camera+power buttons? Will it come up with the other screen?
no that doesnt work, i tried every button + power, all i found out is that the mysterious black screen comes up sometimes and if i do trackball + power, the screen goes black with a blue LED.
Here is some info I found. See if it works.
if you are willing to lose almost everything on your phone that is installed on your internal memory then...
1. Turn the G1 off. If it’s frozen on, take the battery out and put it back in the unit.
2. Hold the Home and Power keys down at same time for about 25 seconds. You will see a yellow triangle screen with exclamation point in the middle.
Now to wipe the device clean:
3. Press Alt+L.
4. Press Alt+W for a factory reset.
5. Press the Home and Back keys again for about 25 seconds.
The device should then reset again and the hard reset is complete.

i already sent him a pm to ask him kindly if he could jtag my phone, didnt put a price on it and i hope he doesnt ask for one either =/.
anyway even if the spl and radio were compatible whats the use, the phone only boots up sometimes ( like 1 in 5 tries or something ) and when it does all it is is a black screen.
Bump, out of sadness ='(
Do me a favor and try to to these and see what happens. Turn off each time and do it.
home+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
camera+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
back+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
call+menu+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
Also try them with SD card out of the slot, and also with SIM card out of the slot.
Let me know what happens.
@beenandroidized . I noticed that you got the same hboot and radio i was attempting to put on my g1.but now it won't boot up . Recovery and hboot still work and I know the problem is cause when i flashed the hboot it turned s-on on my g1. Do you know how to change it back to s-off ?
Sorry, I could not begin to tell you how to change it. Originally, I went I first rooted my G1 with instruction I found by googling, my G1 was at S-OFF. But after the ROM I had crashed on my and I had to reflash everything, my G1 is on S-ON. My guess it was the "Generic G1 ROM w/ Root" that I flashed at the time that changed it to S-OFF.

Just something I found while I was googling on the subject. For some reason some one had mentioned that SD card gets corrupted and it can cause the phone to do that. And that was how they fixed their problem. Never hurt to try.

If you flash a radio or SPL from recovery in that the new combo is unable to boot the current recovery you get stuck in boot mode 3 unable to boot the phone, get into fastboot ect.
This is why fastboot was the recomended way to install 2708+ radio, SPL, and recovery.. it allowed for a safe way to go from any radio/eng SPL to the new stack.
I've never seen the 3.22 radios is an update.zip in the wild, but if you used one to go from a 2.22/ebi0 recovery to a 3.22/ebi1 recovery, but the ebi0 recovery still installed, you are likely now bricked.. only hope is recovery is not reconized and let's you access fastboot commands with the USB wire attatched (even if you are stuck on the splash screen)
My jtag method will repair this.. but I havn't jtagged a phone in a while and its become a boring long painful process. Not including the time for you to get the phone to me and for me to get it back to you. Its proven not worth it on my part.
Hi i flashed cm7 but didint like it, now im trying to restore fron a nandroid backuop but when I do the recovery turns blurry and text is all messed up during the restore, any insight on this guys? I appreciate any help!
Just download a different rom and flash that
Never heard about that problem with "recovery turns blurry and text is all messed up".
But as itsbeertimenow said, just flash a different Rom, and remember to do a Wipe first.
Need HELP!!!!
I really need help!!! I got my my incredible s rooted and s-ff etc. I had a new ROM(cyanogen) installed but my network signal was suddenly dead! So i tried to install a new radio.
But here is when it went wrong, i added the radio zip of the honeycomb into my phone. It automatically went updating and installed it, but this did not help improve my signal. I tried another froyo based radio but i installed the same way but now after the install my phone start booting up and but directly after the htc logo the screen gets black en after 10 secs it tries to boot up again, i waited or half an hour but nothing happens. I went into Hboot but i cant do anything because it asks to update the zip file.
Can anyone help me plz, is there a reset button. Or something to go directly into recovery and factory settings? PLZ HELP
Exuses for my bad englishxD
Thanks...
You need a Gingerbread Radio, and you enter Recovery by holding the power button and volume down at the same time.

If you can't get to recovery because of the radio file, take out the sd card and boot into recovery then insert it while in recovery

You'd have to somehow access your sd card, rename the ruu for your provider/area to pg32img.zip (like a radio file) and put it on the root of the sdcard then let it flash through the bootloader.
okay thanks, i can use my brother htc desire for it thought? But i dont understand what u mean with rename the ruu for your provider? IS the ruu of my provider already on my sd or do i need to find it on internet? IF i get acces to the wrong radio file just delete it?
Really thanks man!!!
