Do you have Kaykuro's SPL AKA Danger 2005?
It is required for Hero ROMs...

When you flashed the SPL did you physically press alt-s and home + back to reboot? (and not use the trackball)
Just trying to make sure it actually flashed. Could you also check by boot in to SPL (Home and camera ) and tell us what version it is?

No problem man
Okay, you're still on hardSPL XD
Basically when you flash the radio or SPL on Cyan's recovery, you must physically press the buttons to flash. Using the trackball will mean that when you reboot it will revert to how it was. You do have the correct radio, but not SPL.
So, grab the SPL and name it update.zip (as when cant flash any zip because that requires the trackball), alt-w to wipe, alt-s to flash, home+back to reboot. Don't touch the trackball at all.
when you boot up there will be no ROM, SPL flash formats your nand. So, after SPL flah leave your phone for a couple of minutes to be safe, then boot in to recovery and go to console. Type "ums_enable" to mount your sd in your computer so you can copy a ROM over. The "ums_disbale" when you're done and then "reboot recovery". Now wipee and flash, you can use the track ball for that too

Sounds like you might have a bricked device if you didnt install the 26I radio before when you first rooted.

Crud, crud crud crud! This is my gf's mom's dream... Was running a custom rom, cant remember which one it is... Now i am absolutely in the dog house. Any ideas on what i can do? Its not totally, bricked, is it?? Is there any such thing as a goldcard for the dream? Need help asap.

Nothing you can do, should have read the instructions.
Yes there is a goldcard for the dream, but it won't help you if the phone won't boot.

Is this a semi-brick or a full, unrecoverable brick? It does get to the htc dream splash screen, then stays there

Full brick, there really isnt a partial brick. Brick is completely unusable (no recovery, bootloader, or os), a semi-brick as you call it would be just no rom or no rom and recovery- but full access to bootloader

Well, cldnt sleep all last night. Been looking at posts trying to find a fix. JTAG, anyone?

No JTAG method, you'd need to open the phone and replace the motherboard.

ok i tried 3 dls from differnt places and im still getting the same thing.Can i try flashing a spl or radio first?Oh i have a PVT board to.

if you are not rooted then you can not flash a radio, spl or rom unless it is an official rom
what exactly are you doing?
what does your bootloader screen look like

try the updated one click root on that bad boy, supposed to work on all android builds, here is the link
http://zenthought.org/content/project/flashrec
then you can use this recovery image for it

I cant install a apk or recovery without having root, im trying to flash RC29 first but cant since it doesnt show up,i cant push the update with adb because its not working for me on win7 X64.i tried to log but it didnt work.I tried home+power i just got normal boot though..Do i rename that recovery image as update?I did a factory default before i started to root process, so i could get rid of the user info from the previous owner.

umm, you don"t need root to install an .apk just use any file manager to do it, you can"t fastboot anything without root and you can"t flash a recovery like a rom
this will give you more of an idea of what is goin on

[Q] Problem with my HTC Dream/G1 ( Rogers )

Hi guys!
I've bought a HTC Dream ( Rogers ) on eBay and I receive it this morning. The phone was already root and it was using a Cyanogen mod for Froyo 2.2.
Then, I wanted to put the phone back in the stock ROM ( unrooted ) to do the process by myself to learn how it works. So I went on google and I found a tutorial ( sorry, can't give the link since I am a new user ) that told me to download the original SPL and .nbh ( got the T-Mo G1 .nbh ) and to go on recovery mode to flash the update.zip to apply the SPL update.
Here is the problem, I think I did the wrong thing and now my phone is stuck in a reboot loop and every time, it ends on the Recovery menu and I don't know what to do...
Please, anyone, help me fix my phone...

1. Turn off the phone (or pull out the battery).
2. Hold down the BACK and POWER button for about 2 seconds.
3. What does it say on the screen?

It said:
DREA210 PVT 32B

Okay. Download the DREAIMG.nbh file and put it on the root of your SD card, then turn phone off. Hold down the CAMERA and POWER button. Press trackball to flash the image. Restart phone and it should boot up.

Thanks for your time and help.
Do you have any more idea?

Well, to get your phone to start back up and usable again is to download this and put it on the root of your SD card. Enter Recovery Mode by holding down the HOME and POWER button. Go down to "flash zip" or something among those words. Select the file and flash it.
That is DangerSPL, which is compatible with your currently installed radio (2.22.19.26I), so there is no need to worry about a brick. However, you'll want to verify that you have that radio installed by entering bootloader mode (BACK and POWER button).
Afterwards when your phone starts back up to Cyanogenmod, you'll probably want to follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4330749#post4321428

I can't access to the recovery menu. Every time I boot the device, I am stuck at the red-green-blue-white screen with the informations about my device ( the informations I gave you yesterday ).

Are you sure? When you try to hold HOME and POWER, it doesn't boot into recovery mode? This is a hard one, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe the DREAIMG.nbh you were trying to flash was corrupted, or maybe your Camera/Back button is stuck, and every time you power on the phone, it thinks you want to power into Bootloader? Check to see.

On my SD card, I juste have haykuro_new_spl-signed plus the things that Android put automatically on the SD Card

I just found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544654
A guide on how to root a Rogers G1. Scroll down to the part where Haykuro edited his post to include a "how to unroot". It'll probably help.

Unfortunately, I can't access to the fastboot mode, here's a video to show you where I'm stuck:
http://img547.imageshack.us/i/file7761.mp4

Do you have Danger/Hard SPL? The stock SPL that comes with the phone doesn't support fastboot (at least on my G1).
Edit:
When rebooting and holding down camera button, If it shows:
HBOOT-0.95.0000 -- You have the stock SPL.
HBOOT-0.95.3000 -- You have the engineering SPL.
HSPL10.95.3000 -- You have HardSPL.
HBOOT-1.33.2005 -- You have Danger SPL

I have the stock SPL ( 0.95.0000 )
What should I do then?

Anyone have an idea? You probably know that it suck having a phone that you can't use :/

The problem is you flashed a non rogers nbh when you unrooted.. and now you can't reflash it because it the rom is for tmobile and the phone says it can only flash rogers roms.
And since you have a very old spl you can't even flash the rogers rom..
To fix this you will need a gold card.. (maybe a friend or a spare htc phone can help you make one)
Once you have a gold card you can download that orange nbh I have in the 2708 thread, rename it DREAIMG.nbh and place it on the root of the sdcard.
That will flash an engineering spl (and a old french rom) with the eng spl you can flash a recovery and continue from their, or follow the 2708 instructions.

What if I dont know anybody with an htc or an Android phone? :/

My problem is the same.
Except for the following differences on the bootloader screen info:

[Q] G1 updated SPL and Radio, RC7 still wont boot

Hello, can't get passed the G1 screen, I've rooted my NookColor and thought, hey I could do this to my phone.... guess not
TIRED OF SEARCHING, just simply trying to install Ginger Yoshi RC7 or RC6.1
After I answer no to the few questions, (partitioned, y/N,stock launcher and 60 something) It completes the install of the ROM so then I power off (remove the bat) and boom, stuck at the G1 screen when I power on.
Steps I took to get here:
1) Put all zip files into root of SD
2) Download install ClockModRecovery
3) Boot into recovery using ClockMod from market
4) superwipe, remove bat, power on, recovery mode
5) flash Radio remove bat, power on, recovery mode
6) flash hboot remove bat, power on, recovery mode
7) Flashed ROM, remove bat, power on... Now stuck at G1 Screen

Your SPL radio combo is not compatible to your ROM. try SPL 13d and radio 2708 combo. This will also give you 14MB extra.

Really? I stole my info from the Yoshi guys signature. dang, okay, where can I [FOUND it] SPL 13d and radio 2708 combo?
THANKS MAN!!

LOL! That's the first stealing it from someone sig. Thanks for making me laugh. (no pun intended)
There are different combo on SPL/radio out that will work with a certain ROM. And sometime depends on what being loaded (flash).
Try this link below by ezTerry. Follow his instruction and it should be OK!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
You can also try different ROM. Like the one I use. Make sure if you flash SuperAosp to also flash the 15MB-boot file. Then that will be OK.
EDIT:
Oh BTW, I checked the guy sig. New SPL does not meant the same as what you have.

[HELP] G1 won't boot after flashing recovery.

I recently flashed a custome recovery as my phone didn't have one. I flashed "United CWM v5.0.2.8 and followed the steps there. After "adb reboot," it just stays on the black Android screen. It won't let me boot into recovery, like if it doesn't recognize the home key. When i hold camera button and power button, it says no flash image found.
Is my phone bricked? Is there anyway i can reset the whole phone?
Any help would be appreciated.

i assume you are rooted. what is your spl/hboot ?
when you hold down camera what does it say?

No, he never said he's trying to flash a dreaimg.nbh
OP:
Yeah, I don't think the new recovery was very safe to flash. It's not for all devices.
If you have 1.33.0013d go here, and scroll down to "If you find yourself stuck without recovery".
If you have an engineering SPL, such as 1.33.2005, then use fastboot to flash your old recovery back.
