I searched this forum and didn't see anything.. but is there any way to use the cyanogen rom updater on the rogers dream?
since it needs the new kernel? or will I always have to manually update it?
as long as you are rooted (which im sure you are as your running cyan) then yes it will work.
i have a rogers dream and use the cyan updater, works brilliantly..

so we don't have to keep updating the kernel to be ebi1 every time?
I use the cm updater you just need to add the brook kernel as a theme.
Follow this post and your good. This is how I do it and it works perfect.

okay im sure you guys saw that 1.6 is being pushed to all tmobile g1s in the next few days (i saw it on engadget.com) my question is im rooted with cyan 4.0.4 i think. (the latest stable) and i think i want to update to that so i can have the new market. will i be able to get the update and will i be able to still use overclock widget. thanks guys!!!
umm there are already 1.6 based roms in the dev section... i would look there, i am about to give akirah's build a go.
if you flash an official update to your phone then you will lose root.
If you flash any official ROM and try to run an app that requires root it won't work as intended (the app).
How's the ROM you mention david? I was considering it myself, I've been using this current ROM for almost a day now. Need a change

i found it to be really fast (like damn fast) but i love a lot of the features in 4.1.11.1 like the lockscreen among other things. i think it is between a jf rom and a cm rom. not completely vanilla but not rocky road either its a good rom overall, but i love my features.
i still have my .zip file for cyans 4.1.11.1 if anyone needs it!..i like it..

Is that the 1.6 mod that Cyanogen created? If so I would like it if you can send to my email [email protected]
I tried to find it when I saw it on friend's phone, but when I went to the site they removed :\
ny friend got lucky and bought the phone from a person that had it on there.
HAHAHA Cyanogen ROMs are like crack now.
whatcha need, whatcha need?
Hey man, you got some cyanogen?
You ain't a cop are ya?
Nah man, I just need some Cyanogen.
ok cool, here ya go, be careful bro that sh*t's fast.
* looks over both shoulders.
* whispers "dude that phone had cyanogen on it when you bought it?!?! That sh*t's illegal bro!"
Hey guys so ive got one of the Rogers dream phones,.I was wondering if it is possible to flash one of the themes (meteamorph)? The reason I ask is that these phones are EBI1 not EBI0 like the tmobile ones.
Being ebi1 makes it so that not everything is compatible, an example of this is the cyanogen rom, it is not compatible with out a special kernel for our phones.
Once again, are the metamorphosis themes compatible with our ebi1 phones?
I am in the exact same boat lol my provider is fido and I use the latest cyanogen on my rooted ebi1 rogers dream I jus thought that this was a funny coincidence oh and obviously I'm in canada ps . I reall would like it if brian the god who makes our cyanogen port files, ported the 10mb ram hack
Themes are all good. I've used the ones from the cm updater with no issues. I also tried some meteamorphs a while ago with no issues. I think there is an issue with meteamorph on the latest cyanogen thoe. not 100% sure
To the first poster, yeah that would be great because we can't get dwangs fast rom on ebi1. Do you know if anyone has asked him to port it?

Where can I get cm updater from? I didn't find it on the market. And am I correct in thinking that the cm updater does more than just update cyanogen roms?
EDIT ive found it and see that it can update the cm aswell as use themes. I still need an answer to my post after this one.
I am wondering if it is safe to use cm updater to update our phones because we require the special kernal to use cm. Do we need to apply a kernal everytime, does it do it for us, or do we do it ourselves. (This is regarding updating the cm itself not the theme)
Hey guys, so I am still waiting for a response regarding my above post but in addition I would like to say that I now have a theme using cm updater. I downloased the first one in the recommened list. I was wondering what the difference between advance and regular launcher. There where two options for this theme one with regular other with advanced. I chose regular because I don't know what a lanucher is.
i have heard that people have asked him but he hasnet responded with a definitive answer

You just need to add the bcrook Kernel as a theme. Follow the directions in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592377
To Update:
1. Themes > Menu > Check Now
2. Select the newest bc-ebi1 file from the theme section
3. Click on it and download it, choose Apply Later when finished.
4. Download the newest Cyanogen ROM from the ROM section. Choose Apply Now.
This will reboot to recovery and flash the newest cyanogenmod. Then apply the previously downloaded port file.
Enjoy!
Thanks for the link andanswer, that will come in handy.
Another question I have is what's the difference between advanced and regular launcher?
You can look at the thread for advanced laucher and see the differences. Folders, change the number of home screens and more.
hmm i have a rogers dream and ive never had problems with themes, cm updater or anything. also ive never had to install any "special" kernel for any rom ive put on my phone.
im pretty sure i used the "rogers one touch root" guide in the dev forum when i originally rooted my phone.
is there a difference between the old and new rogers dreams? or are all this ebi1??
I use the enoch theme and it works great and looks even better. I think that most roms don't touch the kernel so they should be fine.

There is a difference but it isn't with the radio (ebi1 vs ebi0) its with the spl. It just requires the one click root to get around. You must have used haykuro's method to root which switches your radio to EBI0 making it compatible with any rom for the G1.

ahh makes sense, i used haykuro's method. thanks for the clarification.
hey i am using the binary something theme. When on the old Cyanogen rom it had the same theme but with the lockscreen, when updating to the latest CM rom i dont see the lock screen version anymore. (i am using CM updater)
Ok so I am now using the enoch theme, I like the blue accent and the transparent design to show more background. One thing that I miss is the lock screen, CM updater doesn't show any option for installing a enoch lockscreen. Is there any way to get a lockscreen? Also can I use any lockscreen even if it is not enoch? (Cm updater shows no lockscreens anyway)
Does the latest CM rom 12.2 not support any lockscreens yet? Or do I just need to add more sorces for themes in cm updater? If so could someone guide me into doing that.
could someone please answer as to can I use any lockscreen? and how can i get this done with cm updater?
Hello,
I'm running the latest stable version of cyanogen 5.0.7, which is the last, i think.
And i'm having trouble with my APN settings. I want to perform a clean wipe and revert to a google ROM to see if I can get the APN settings to work on my G1 with that. Is this possible without actually breaking the phone?
I don't think it'd be downgrading as the latest Google ROM is 2.2 and 5.0.7 comes up as 2.1 on my phone.
If it's safe, could someone tell me how?
from what i understand u basically wanna go back stock so if thats then heres a link
although its been a min since i did it this way but hope this helps
thanks for the reply.
according to this page, G1 only supports up to Android 1.6 in its official form?

You know, there might have been an actual REASON why you installed a cyanogen rom.... and it was probably because of the fact that HTC DREAM only has official images to 1.6!
Unless you were just installing cyanogen rom to make life difficult....?
how could installing cyanogenmod make life difficult when it has so many cool features. I can't even remember if android was even past a 1.6 release when i started using cyanogen. what was the point of your reply?
either way, i can't remember the reason why i installed cyanogen. could have just been purely for the sake of modding.
Is there any way to downgrade 2.2.1 to 2.2?
Why would you want to?
Yes, there is, and it's not an easy one. And the update notification will bug you to no end. And judging by that you're running stock ROM, my suggestion - leave it as is.

I was using Universal Androot root on stock 2.2. The 2.2.1 OTA came through and after ignoring it for a few days, I accidently installed it. Now I can't unroot with Universal Androot, keeps saying "Failed! You still have the power, my lord.."
Now things like Rom manager do not work i tryed to restore to my 2.2 backup i made on rom manager before updating to 2.2.1 but nothings happen i tryed to flash the recovery,reboot into recover,fix permissions but it keep saying ''An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!'' ,
Search the forum for "Root FRG83".
There's a dedicated thread in Development.
There's a link to Windows app that roots easily.
You could also find the thread through my signature.
How hard is that?
You've been answered in one thread, you refuse to take a second to look, why? Do you expect someone to do everything for you?
I need to downgrade to 2.2 as well, since I need to do some testing on the AAC bug (which is fixed in 2.2.1, I think?).
Can anyone point me to a "vanilla" 2.2 ROM for the Nexus One? Or provide some hints on how to downgrade?
Thanks.

This is a great ROM, based on Google's Stock ROM (not AOSP) and using the stock kernel. It has a few tweaks, but retains a vanilla experience and is very stable. You want the first link called "FRG83D Stockbar v1".
If that is too much fro you, you can download the "Completely Stock Deodexed with busybox (No add-ons or tweaks):" . This version is 99.9% like the stock version, just rooted, deodexed (in case you would want to add a theme), and has busybox support.
The Dev is pretty good at answering questions and providing support.
EDIT:
Sorry, this is 2.2.1. I guess you are looking for a FRF91/FRF93 or FRG33 based ROM... Try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8037155&postcount=591 . It is an older versioin of the ROM above. When I was using it, it was very nice. Only difference is that the notification bar is black with white icons instead of white w/ black icons.

Thanks a lot! You rule!
Or you could just flash an official build from here: http://developer.htc.com/ ...
I tried flashing both the FRG33 Stock v1 (FRG33_stockbar_signed_v1.zip) from the xda thread, and Nexus One FRF91 system image (signed-passion-img-0713_FRF91.zip) from developer.htc.com, but I got a "E:signature verification failed" error when trying to flash them.
EDIT: I rooted the 2.2.1 using rageagainstthecage, installed Amon RA 1.8.0 and tried installing FRG33 Stock v1 again. This time it worked, I'm back on 2.2. Thanks!
Looking for a sense ROM for Mytouch 3g 32b (or G1) Radio 27.08? I see plenty of HTC sense ROMs bot none for radio 27.08. I have tried SenseL2.7 but can't get past the language selection screen. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116154
Would be great if it was Froyo or Gingerbread sense for Radio 27.08.
Sense lx is 2708+ (and why didn't you post on th thread that it didn't work? We would have helped)
The gb sense rom is 2708+
Namit1994's sense rom is 2708+ I think
I Just re-flashed it to try again. I didn't use the MTD I using the recovery from Rom manager (Still can't get passed the language screen). What is the link for those other two ROMs you mentioned?
