Problems Flashing (some) Eclair ROMs - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a G1, currently running Cyanogen 4.2.12.1 (4.2.13.x kills my battery).
Code:
Phone: White T-Mobile G1
ROM: Cyanogen
SPL: Hykuros Death/Danger
Radio: 2.22.19.26i
Recovery: RA-dream-v1.5.2
SD Card: 4GB
Swap: Enabled
Fastboot screen is as follows:
Code:
DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF

RADIO-2.22.26I

I have played around with dozens of Donut and Cupcake ROMs, and settled on Cyanogen, because it seemed to be the most stable.
Now, with the Eclair ROMs for the G1 finally hitting the scene (now that they have a camera...props to NCommander), you can only imagine how excited I was to give them a shot.
I have had the 'prerequisites' for a while: Haykuro's SPL, SD card, rooted phone, RA's recovery image, etc...completely prepared for the Eclair releases.
There have been a few Eclair roms that have been released recently, and for some reason, some of them will not load. (specifically the one by manup, and one branched off of his by Herver). It will flash just fine, but when it boots, I get errors such as this:
Code:

I have tried partitioning my SDCard with different size swap, fat32, and ext partitions...I have tried using ext2, 3, and 4, all to no avail. I have tried different combinations of wiping (before as well as after loading the rom), reverting back to stock firmware and such, then trying, and nothing seems to work.
As I am sure you all can imagine, I am quite frustrated. Does anyone out there know what is causing these issues, and can perhaps point me in the right direction to rectifying them? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: One thing I failed to mention previously was that I am able to flash Hero ROMs, and from what I have read, the Hero ROMs require the same setup as the Eclair ROMs (Haykuro SPL, ext/swap, etc). Mentioning that, it brings me to believe even more that there is just one tiny item I am missing, but can not pinpoint it.

I have done more trial and errors with this, to absolutely no avail. I am at a 100% loss...surely someone has some clue as to what is going on?

Hi, was wondering if you are using the same SD card and just trying different partitions, what kind of SD card do you have and do you have more than one SD card, because I would suggest trying a brand new freshly partitioned, with no files but the files you intend to flash, on the card.
Let me know.

Using your recommendation, halfsight, I tried with a different SD card, and came up with the same results. Good thought, but no avail. Any other ideas? Also, is my SPL the proper one? I am told it is Haykuro's. Info is as follows: (also in the OP)
Code:
DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF

So I received my new 8 GB Class 6 SD Card in the mail today, and tried that card to flash with and such...still having problems. Any ideas?

danger spl wit cymod rom

someone answer this for me asap please. can u use haykuros danger spl for cymods roms
You can use it, but you dont have to use it.
im asking cuz i just came from the eclair 2.1 rom back to cymod i wiped everything twice and flashed cymod but its been on the g1 screen for about 10 minutes or so now. its the first time since i rooted my fone dats it been on the g1 screen for this long. is this normal or to be expected
Depends, hook up your USB lead and get a logcat to see what its doing.
It does sound a long time, but it does work find with DangerSPL.
lol ok u lost me there, how do i hook up usb lead and logcat and the whole shebang
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719
You need to setup ADB.
and then run
"adb logcat"
From the command prompt.
i think im in the same boat. have never had ANY problems like this. installed manup's first 2.1 rom, ran it for a couple days, decided to restore a nandroid of 4.2.8.1, ran that for a couple days, then i tried the newest version manup put out. i wiped the ext3, and the dalvik-cache folder, stuck at G1 screen. wiped everything and tried to flash CM 4.2.9.1, stuck at G1 screen. nandroid restore works fine. wtf

Wipe everything, data - dalvik and ext
Reboot
Wipe everything again and then flash the rom and see if that helps. Sometimes on a single wipe fragments of the old rom can still be present and cause problems just like this.

Looks like there is a problem with your Ext partition, have you tried repartitioning the card and then checking tomake sure it's been done correctly using parted?
repartitioned both cards, does the same thing on both cards
Are you guys installing the HTC recovery image BEFORE you install CyanogenMod?

Stuck at G1 on any ROM install but nandroid backup of Dwang's 1.15 works fine

i flashed an Eclair ROM about 2 weeks ago from Eugene and manup, worked fine, used it for a couple days. went back to a nandroid of 4.2.8.1 and tried to update to CM's newest when it dropped, got stuck at G1 screen. so i wiped everything(dalvik, ext3) and tried installing a fresh CM 4.2.9.1. stuck at G1 screen. but the nandroid backup works fine.

No service, independent of ROM

Hello people,
while trying out some Eclair(-/Hero) ROMs today, i suddenly had problems testing since, whatever eclair ROM i flashed, it just wouldn't boot. logcat gave me errors about "ConnectionService" not being able to start.... so i checked whether my nandroid backup of CM 4.2.10.1 would do the trick, however, i had no signal there as well! whenever i tried to enter settings->Wireless->Mobile i got a settings FC! any ideas?
You answered your own problem
Look @ the SPL in your sig it says "Hard SPL"
EClair roms need Haykuro
You sealed your won fate.
so not even flashing the new spl and radio will solve his problem?

It could also be a hardware problem with the phone's antenna being damaged or broken.
@OP try another rom like enom/dwang/wesgarner those are 1.6 roms so try then report back
Notice:They dont need the ADP image to be installed, just wipe and install the rom.
Well Ace42, it wasn't the SPL ( i flashed haykuro yesterday, just forgot to update sig ) it somehow works now, but i've got problems getting back to CM now. here's the logcat:

SD card and G1! HUGE PROBLEM!!!

My problem is that the SD card is not recognized anymore, and when I put a card into the device I get a format message. This is what I get with ADG log cat:

I tryed with several SD cards, Sandisk or Kingstone
Do you have any ideas about it?
I can't load any Rom and when I'm in bootmode I cannot use fastboot command, no skateboard Android at all!!!
Suggestions? Do you think it's an hardware issue? Have you evere experienced something like that? PLS!!
"D/vold ( 46): Filesystem check failed (not a FAT filesystem)"
Format the card in the computer, load the rom you want, then format the ext/swap if you wanted.
I did it already with no resolt at all! tryed in Fat/32 and ext2, the SD card is not recognized
This is the command I used to format the sd card:
format *: /FS:FAT32 /A:4096
I didn't try with an ext2 filesystem. Can you explain what you mean by "format the ext/swap if you wanted." ?
Thanks a lot for helping!
Format with ext/swap if you want to use those features. Did you format the card in the recovery or from the computer, try in recovery.
use a card reader to (maybe) rescue anything u want to keep from ur sd card then format ur card from ur computer. this happened to me before and this method worked for me, however the problem kept reccuring after a while si i got a new card.
Hi guys,
tnx for helping. Unfortunately I'm still unable to access the SD. I formatted the SD (more than one card) with another andorid phone, tried also to start in recovery, but no luck. I'm afraid is an hw problem, or may be a problem with the rom or radio I'm using at the moment. The phone it's not rooted yet, and with out SD I have no idea on how to solve this problem. Ideas? Is it possible to change the rom without using the SD?
can you mount the phone to a windows computer?
If so, just open my computer, right click on your phone and format it that way.
download all the needed files directly to the PC, move them to the formatted SD card, procede with rooting, installing your rom of choice and getting AmonRAs recovery image. Do a Nandroid+ext backup. Enjoy.
:edit: You said maybe a problem with the rom, but that it was not rooted yet... that doesnt make sense. Tell us EVERYTHING about what you have done if what I said above does not work.

Lost recovery data.

As the title states, and the logcat. Seemed to have lost part of my recovery, yet my recovery still works, though Im thinking its not working correctly.
Still a Noob, yes Im going back to donut, little worried about this error, or is it just a fastboot a new recovery.img?
