Correct
Wipe-->HTC 1.6ADP(flash)-->CYangogen(w/o reboot flash)
Wrong
Wipe-->Cyanogen-->reboot

so i flash the 1.6 image and then cyanogen?
is the 1.6 a rom or an image?

What roms are you trying to flash? Whats steps are you doing? How do you have your card setup? Just give us some more details.
card is part ext/2 I am on [email protected]#1 I have tried cyan 3.6.5, hero 2.7.4 tried to part card ext/2 with linux swap. standard download rename update flash each time gets stuck on any rom other than jf builds flashed the adp dev1 rom no problem I flashed hero theme no problem hero clocks no problem I have the latest radio spl and cyan 1.3.1 recovery no problem. there has to be something I am missing. My other g1 download flash cyan 3.6.8 no problem I just don't get it I have not had many problems flashing. I have flashed tis phone 5 time yesterday with the same results.
firmware 1.5
baseband 62.5os.20.17h_2.22.19.26i
kernel 2.67.-00392-g8312baf
[email protected]#1
build

hope that helps sorry for the lack of info in 1st post
You may need to wipe your second partition. Lucid's script does this for you, just:
Code:
# lucid -c
If done from terminal, you're gonna get a load of force closes, so do it after you have the new update.zip on your SD. Then just wipe and flash. I ran into the same problem and found that the 2nd partition plays a big part (for me, anyway.)
Sounds like your not wiping at all.

it has to be your ext2 or 3 partition then
what about assigning a drive letter to the part?. I have not done that yet i use acronis so it's very simple.
recovery image
What recovery image are you using? Cyanogen's 1.3.1 and new 1.4 images will repair Ur ext2 and even upgrade Ur partition to ext3 witch is heterosexual than the 2. But I don't think JF support ext3 so if u do upgrade Ur partition u will need to choose fifteenth Rom also
I was wondering about that I saw the thread in dev. I am running 1.3.1. Did I see that right the new image does apps2sd is that with any rom? I don't ask any ques. over there. . does that flash like any other recovery? download rec. rename to update and flash as normal?.
i figured it out the part. I had was logical and not primary. I just took the 2 cards and compared them will try flash in the morning
Can i place [Solved] for this thread?
yes thank you!

please help me

okay this is what ive done...i use the flash rec apk and then backup and applied the ra recovery img. now i can go to the recovery mode...can i apply any rom not knowing the spl?...also one last question.... if i need to unroot do i do this by appliying the dreamin.img by pressing the end and camera then apply and this should unroot it right????
oh yeh i came from a cupcake build...on my g1
To get back to stock you flash the DREAIMG.nbh in bootloader. You need the 1.33.2005 SPL to flash a hero rom and a few others, but they will state that in the OP. You can flash any other rom though.

Go back to Cyanogen from xRom

I am currently running xRom Eclair v1.0 and have been having problems with it. I would like to go back to Cyanogen 4.2.13 but every time I try it gets stuck at the G1 logo. I have searched the forum, but not sure if I'm searching for the right thing. I am using RA recovery and wiped everything that is on the wipe screen but no luck. Is there a way to install Cyanogen 4.2.13, if so, how would I go about doing it?
Thanks in advance!

Help Flashing Custom Recovery on G1

Hi am a newbie here.i have read many guides here and form cyanogen and addictivetips on flashing custom recovery image on T-Mobile G1,DMD64,Donut..i have tried ROM Manager,Fastboot and ADB but still i get errors.what can i do ?
is your phone rooted? what errors?
Well first you need root. I was lazy and used this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747598) app to get root. Then I followed the CyanogenMod wiki (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/) to get the Recovery, Radio, SPL, then ROM flashed and now I'm running CM 6.1.

Did you remember to flash the defanged base on the cyanogenmod wiki? I forgot to do that the first time I rooted and my recovery got reverted back to stock.
