My G1 will only boot up sometimes showing up the screen??? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have never encountered this issue... have been flashing roms for years.. on my windows phones and my G1 since it was possible..
The other day I went up update my phone to the latest CM ROM.. my phone finished and then I booted up the phone.. the screen was black.. i waited for a long time and not even the G1 screen showed up..
I booted again.. and same thing.. i booted again for days and tried getting into the recover with no luck..
I read someone had a simliar issue on here and they went into recover (though no screen or text shows up on screen) and proceded to hit alt w to wipe..i did that aswell and the next boot up the G1 screen showed up. I then did a complete wipe from there and began to install the new HTC recover and CM rom from scratch.. then same thing happend.. i kept getting the black screen...
I then tried to install the original SPL and install the original G1 rom and start all over.. i was able to install the original SPL (which I think is part of the issue) and then turned off the phone.. I placed the dreaimg in the sdcard and went to hit CAMERA and POWER.. and nothing shows up..
I can't for how many times i tried am able to get the phone to go into the install screen from holding down CAMERA and POWER..
I am able to restore the phone using the nanback up from the recover but since I installed the SPL it went away.. not sure if they are connected somehow.. so now i don't have those options either..
Can somebody help me with some ideas on how to fix this?

If you can't get into recovery? To me it looks like a brick phone.
As far as been here and read some post about not able getting into recovery or tri color screen not working as well and not getting any response from phone

I am able to get to the Amon Ra recovery.. and do things from there.. the problem is that when I reboot..it sometimes shows up the G1 and sometimes it stays black..
I tried reverting back to the original ROM by putting the dream on there at that point i noticed that when hold camera and power nothing happens..im' still able to reboot and go into Amon Ra recovery though..

Just an update.. i noticed that my phone only boots up properly if I slide out the keyboard before I press the power button to turn on the phone.. same thing applies when getting out of standby mode while the phone is on...

STUCK IN Tmobile g1 Screen! HELP!

For some odd reason everytime I try to install the cyanogen rom v4.0.4 I believe its one of the stable ones, I do everything to root my fone and install the rom and my fone says its done w the updates and to reboot it and when I do it stays @ the g1 screen. Now I take the battery out and press the cam and end buttons to reinstall the dreaimg to take it back to rc29 state. When I power it up it works just fine the lil android dude pops up and i put in my info and then just redo the steps to the cyanogen rom and for some reason my fone will install everything I will assume properly and i go to reboot it and it stays on the tmobile g1 screen.
I need help! I have tried and tried and Idk what to do now.
This all started bc I deleted something from the cm updater and my fone hasnt worked since...if ne one can help me plz email me @ [email protected]....
Thanx!

Stuck in Bootloader screen

Hello all,
as the title says, one of my touch diamond's is stuck in bootloader screen.
I didnt do anything in between it working and not working, it was on my desk, put it there working, got it 5mins later, and it was in bootloader screen (tricolor screen).
What i've already done to try and fix it:
flash it with the original HTC rom, flash completes succesfully, phone reboots to tricolor screen, so no solution there.
install mtty and format the phone, this completes, reboot the phone, again goes to the bootloader.
reflash the phone with original rom after cleaning it with mtty, flash again completes succesfully but when it reboots after flashing it just goes to bootloader again.
Tried to flash a Hardspl: stuck at 0% and stays there. so that doesnt work.
BUT! when in mtty i give the "boot" command, it DOES start to boot WM. but then again, when i turn the phone of, and on again, or it reboots because of first start after flash, it goes to bootloader again. The VOLDOWN button is NOT stuck, cause when it boots i can use the vol buttons perfectly fine.
Anyone got an suggestion in how to unbrick it? i have a second, perfectly working diamond here too, if that helps in any way.
Some more info ive just seen in mtty, when i told it to boot, it said ONE BAD BLOCK IN CE, remove block ---- to ---- (dont know the exact numbers anymore)
hi..i had something like that...
just download this.
"RUU_Signed_1_93OliNex_HSPL_UnsignedEdition"
it's only 1.7MB and it's will make it work.. atleast it did the job for me...
Hi,

Sprint Hero, not bricked but need some help!

Ok so I rooted my hero, but i accidentally tried to load a custom rom with out flashing a recovery image. So when i tried to do that, i forgot to uncheck the debugging setting. so basically its stuck on the htc screen. i can boot into recovery mode if i hold down the volume down button, but if i hit reboot, it goes back to the htc screen.
when i went into recovery mode, i read one of the lines and it says that there is no recovery image. i tried to run the stock RUU, but my computer will not recognize the device so the RUU wont run. does anyone have any ideas?
any help is appreciated. thanks
have you install HTC sync? if not go to sprint.com/download and then smartphone then pick your phone you should see HTC sync

yeah, i got that. i was able to flash the RUU, but it didnt solve my problem. still gets stuck at the htc screen.
good thing is that i can still get to the recovery screen.
i even tried flashing the sprint 2.1 ruu, but the problem remains. now the htc screen is white with green letters.
EDIT:
a couple of things i noticed. when the recovery mode first starts running, it says something like checking sd card...then its says no image.
also, up at the top left of the screen, third line. it says "touch panel-fail" struck me as odd.
Try this. Not sure if it will work since you flashed the 2.1 RUU, but it's worth a try.

How did you flash the RC29? Did you use the OEM recovery by holding the camera and power button?
yes thats how i did it.

CWM works, but Android wont boot after.

Tried to change the cover of the phone, but I did not go trough with it.
So I screwed it back together, and now Android wont boot, the screen just goes black after a few seconds. The screen works, the buttons work, it's only the OS that wont boot.
Anyone seen this before?
Solved, got the phone mounted in CWM, and Rooted a new rom
