I am loading cyancs latest on my spare mytouch (promise pure G1 user to heart) and I got everything working and loading till about the part where it is supposed to load the home screen after the android logo...All it does is black out on me and stays there. I was wondering any feedback if possible
(Yes I know mytouch on a G1 forum section...I feel like I get better help here then on the sapphire section lol..Hail G1 Users)

Has anyone successfully run HTC Touch Flo on the Herald or Tmobile Wing? I heard report that other devices can run it and others cant...
I tried the alpha .cab they had before but it never worked
Just black screen
damn it, i thought the herald and the touch are pretty much the same. Grrrh I really want that to work
I've tried the touchflo.cab from two different places on my Wing. The one I found on this forum gave me the black screen problem, and the other made it so the touch screen wouldn't work at all, but when I pressed the left soft key it brought up one side of the cube, but touch screen was still disabled.
I've actually had success
I had success following one of the topics under the Wizard section and actually got it to work, however, it was not really worth the time nor the effort. When it did work it worked intermittently and ran dog-slow - zapping more than it's fair share of resources. At the end of the day when all is said and done - I hard-reset my device back to plain vanilla style and tweaked back to my normal config.
Do you remember what you did to make it work? I'd love to try it out.
that is such a shame
if anyone gets it to work without draining all program memory out of the wing please let us know
Just search Wizard forums for Touch Cube - I was following the ' HTC Touch - New Files For Our Wizards' thread but I know I jumped to other threads referenced from there to figure out how to make it work. Like I said it was time consuming and totally not worth the effort IMO - but good luck with that . . . .
Yeah I tried a couple methods but none worked for me. Hopefully a Cooked Rom comes out with it implemented in it.
I am trying to implement the TouchFLo into a cooked rom but turns out it is harder than I thought. I am going to try and get some help from the Hermes members. Word is someone got it working on a trinity, so herald shouldnt be too far off.
Also just thought you should now the herald would need a new .dll file before the touchflo is able to work. I found one in Hermes threads, will try to implement into the rom and see I have more sucess than they do.
cheers
As Any Progress Been Made
Bought it 5 days ago. When the battery went dead last night, I plugged it in to charge and switched it on .It did not go past the Windows Mobile splash screen. I took the battery out as well as the sim and memory cards, to no avail. I left it plugged in overnight and got the battery fully charged (battery indicator light is now green) and the network status green light would (at least sometimes) start flashing on boot, even though the phone would not completely boot up. I CAN get it into bootloader. What I want to know is, should I go to www.htc.com and download and install an official ROM from there, or should I leave all that alone and take it back to where I got it from before I screw it up? Additionally, the phone shows up as a Dopod D810 when registered on www.htc.com, and the radio and ROM versions appear to be lower/older than what came pre-installed in the phone. Advice anyone? I am fairly new and in the process of learning all this wonderful stuff you guys have to teach.
it seems like its already been fiddled with (correct me if i'm wrong people), i would visit the HTC club site and if you can upgrade using your serial number do that, as if you look in the trinity WIKI in "Trinity" forum (Not Trinity 6 forum, here) it states there is a different way to flash the p3600i as its setup different than the standard p3600.
This is exactly what happened to my phone when the battery died (after installing FInixNOver) Is there a problem with these ROMS, or something that happens when the phone dies!... My phone was also 'sticking/frozen/crashed' on the splash screen.
I just reflashed it with a new ROM after fully charging it again.
Thanks VISTAR. And WIZZKID - your phone works perfectly now after the flashing? And do you think it's because of the stuff you installed? BTW my ROM was an official HTC ROM. I actually got called out early this morning to do a flight to the island where I bought the phone (I am a commercial pilot flying Caribbean routes) and I packed it's backside back in the box and sent it to be exchanged. I don't have the new one yet, but I am beginning to wonder if I shouldn't try something else because of this problem of sticking at the splash screen - however I only have a choice of the Kaiser and the S730 at the moment. The P3600/P3600i is among my favourite WM phones of all times, but I don't wanna have to go thru this again. What do you guys think? By the way - I only just realized that I started this post in the wrong section, so please forgive me anyone whom is not pleased by that.
iF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE OF A KAISER I WOULD GO WITH THAT, ITS THE BEST OUT THERE AT THE MOMENT..
Yeah I know but I just don't like it the way I like the P3600i and some of the others. Besides I prefer no sliding hardware keyboard. Moving parts is an issue for me as I am very fussy about wear and tear/looseness. Thanks again for your help. I am gonna move over to WIZZKID's thread on this P3600/P3600i non-starting issue since I am in the wrong section of the forum. Thanks to all those who assisted...
Got a second P3600i and it did the same thing - a hard reset fixed the problem.
Alright, I am sure this is a common question but I did a google (and forum) search for G1 boot screen mod and such but all that came up were people with semi-bricked phones and how to fix it.
So decided to post simple question.
I remember seeing a video of some guy having a different boot screen other then the classic "T-Mobile G1" screen and I was wondering if there is a way to change the boot screen to something more appealing to us AT&T users to something more along the lines of an HTC logo?

So, I have a T-Mobile G1, and lately, I was trying to install different custom ROMs to check out which one suits me.On the Android Spin site I noticed JesterBlur, and looked it up.It said in a thread that in order to install it I must have the Haykuro's SPL.I was previously using cyanogenmod with cm recovery 1.4, and when I installed the SPL the phone asked me to reboot.Ever since, when I press the power button to open it,it gets stuck on th T-mobile G1 screen.No combinations work, including Camera + Power.Any ideas anyone?
It's dead. 1.33.2005 SPL requires the 26i radio, which you should have had already.
if you bought the phone on a contract walk in to the store and say that after accepting an update the phone rebooted and will not turn on. Try so sound as un-techsavvy as possible. They should replace it.
Eitherwise you either need to buy a new one, or replace the motherboard (thus replacing the borked nand).
First of all thanks for replying so quickly.
And secondly.....The phone might not be exactly the T-mobile G1, but an Android Dev Phone 1......I just said T-mobile G1 because they're very similar...Oh and I also tried the conbination Trackball + Power and a blue led appers.Anyone knows what it means?And since I can't quite take it for a service, does anyone know ANY way to restore my phone?ANYTHING!Even if I have to do it manually.....It's useless in this condition anyway.......
Only thing you can do to getting working again is to replace the motherboard. Doesn't look too hard and I'm sure you can pick up G1's with cracked screens on ebay pretty cheap.
Hello everybody! I am new here and do not currently own an android device and have a tmobile g1 question. Some one on craigslist is selling a g1 and titling it as soft bricked. He says it is stuck at the tmobile screen. How would you fix this? I was thinking of purchasing it to mess around with android for a good price. Anyone know how you would fix this/ restore it from this state? If there is nothing I could do than I would just save abit more and buy a different one.
You wont know until you have the phone on your hands, not a lot of people are truthful now a days.
First see if he has rooted it, by pressing the home+power on start up, unfortunately I use Amon RA Recovery image which means I only know what that recovery image looks like which in most cases all fonts are green and it gives you options, if you can get into that, then that means that he was trying to flash a ROM on to it and not had the right SPL on it "or so I am believing".
Also check the conditions of the phone, i.e broken screen, swollen battery, etc... Also be careful with people from CriagList, also follow their guidelines for your safety.
