hey guys, I don't need to remain ebi1 because I don't use data.
I was wondering if anyone has a link to a page describing how to get from ebi1 to ebi0.
I did a google and forum search but only found threads going from ebi0 to ebi1.
Also, if this even possible if I have flashed my spl to danger?
nm got it.
I'd be interested to hear if you see any changes in reception, whether you have more/fewer bars...
wow, I am now getting MORE bars, in my home I normally get 1-2 and rarely 3 bars.
Right now I have 4 bars.
I'd like to know as well, how to go from EBI1 back to EBI0. I'm on US AT&T network and don't care about Roger's mandatory update. The phone is rooted with the latest Cyanogen EBI1 mod, but I'm experience exact symptoms as desribed in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632115&highlight=EBI1
Massive data drops I never seen before and "no service" in the morning.
follow :
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_Rogers_Dream_EBI1_to_CyanogenMod
skip the parts you have already done (like maybe the spl part) when it says to flash the ebi1 radio 3.x, instead use the ebi0 one 2.x
and when it says to flash the R version of the recovery, flash the non R version
Remember this is highly dangerous and must be done in fastboot mode! DO NOT reboot untill BOTH the radio and recovery have been changed, rebooting while only one has WILL cause a BRICK.
I take no responsibility for what YOU do!
Should I reflash system image and/or Rom, or just radio and recovery?
You are going to do this
1)fastboot the radio
2)fastboot the recovery
3) flash in recovery what ever rom you want (obviously without the ebi1 kernel)

It worked, Thanks!
Ebi1 --> ebi0
ok so i have a rogers Dream aka G1. It HAD the 3.xx.xx radio, the EBI1 radio. I wanted to be able to use more roms so i downgraded it to the EBI0 radio. But now I can't seem to access data plan services? Any ideas on this? do i need to have the EBI1 radio in order to access Rogers data services?

No, robbers is criminally blocking your services for being smarter than them.
You need to find the "opt out" button where you can get your data service reactivated.

running cyanogen 4.01, but i want to run one of the hero roms but i cannot for some unknown reason install the new spl. my question is does cyanogen have any hero roms or after numerous attempts how do i get the new spl.tried at least 3 different methods.
Do you have cyanogen's recovery image? If so, do not use the trackball to reboot the phone or even apply the spl, rename it to update.zip, then flash it with the keyboard commands, also do not go to the reocvery console to reboot, you must use home and back to reboot the phone or else the spl will not write. I have had this problem before and that is how i fixed it.
Cyan does not make any hero roms, what do you mean that you can not get the spl for it, do you also have the newest radio flashed, gotta give some more info
radio
i have 2.22.19.26I radio. if that is wrong then i just need to find the right one. and i will do that.
I believe that is the correct radio, so just follow david's solution then
i just rooted my phone and put amon ra recovery and newest cyanogen stable rom and not sure about what to do with the radio. should i change the radio also and if so to which one?
You don't have to, but you can update to the ERE36B Radio if you feel so inclined or are having lots of 3G connectivity issues.
If you are not very familiar with fastboot yet though I would stay away from the radio unless I absolutely had to. It is one of the only ways to brick your phone.
(On a side note, I am glad no one on here is malicious... it would be very easy to say something like "You need to install the newest G1 radio and make sure to pull the battery out mid-install" I don't know why it popped in my head but I was just thinking to myself how mean that would be...)
Oh, and in the future please post questions in Q&A or you will probably get yelled at

This is not the correct forum for this. Please do not post question in the dev forum unless they are related to development.
In any case, you don't need to update the radio, but it's recommended. The radio download link in there along with the CM 5041 download link.
To flash the radio, reboot in bootloader with the phone connected to the PC. Check if fastboot recognises the phone (fastboot devices) and then flash the radio (fastboot flash radio name_of_radio_file.img). Before you flash, make sure you phone is charged (preferably > 70%) and NEVER power of the phone or PC while flash the radio.
Post your Questions in the Q&A, not in developmental section.
Thanks

Hey all.
I had a quick question about RomManager that came with CM6. When I use the program it asks me to install "clockwork". I was wondering, since I have to use ebi1 roms, if this would be something that is compatible with my aging and crippled phone. Thanks!

Anything info wise, would be of great value.
hey man, i wouldnt recommend installing it, i did and now it wont even let me boot into recovery mode.
Be aware of the EBI0/1 compatibility issues. If this rom "manager" (whatever that means....) is distributing EBI0 ROMs, then you should probably FIRST UPGRADE TO AN EBI0 RADIO -- any 2.x radio is compatible with your phone and will make it compatible with EBI0 ROMs.
I can't upgrade to an ebi0 radio because of Rogers. I need to use ebi1 so I can still have data access.

You don't know of Koush's ROM Manager?
I use clockwork recovery. If you are unable to reboot into recovery, YOU HAVE FLASHED THE WRONG RECOVERY. Do NOT blame the app because you are unaware of what you are doing! I personally use this recovery and it has given me no problems.

Hi,
I have a question. Does anyone know the difference between the 2.22.23.02 and 2.22.19.26I radio? I think the xx.02 is USA and xx.26I is non-US? Is that true? Can the xx.26I radio be installed on a USA T-Mobile G1? Or would that result in a brick? I would like to know the difference between these two radio's and their advantage/disadvantages, if there are any. I think everyone refers to the xx.26I as the "new radio"?
I currently have the 2.22.23.02 radio on my device.
2.22.23.02 is referred to as the new radio. However, there is an even newer radio that is out (2.22.27.08), that gives you 14MB of extra RAM, but is only really compatible with certain ROMs. All of these radios can be flashed on the T-Mobile G1. If the radio shows up in the Android Development section for the G1, it is safe to use.
I think that the 2.22.19.26I radio has been reported to work better in countries that are outside of the USA, but since you live in the USA, I think that the 2.22.23.02 radio is the better one. I think that people who flashed the 2.22.23.02 radio have reported better battery life. But I'm not sure if that is true or not. But, if you want the newest thing, try out 2.22.27.08. I flashed the 2.22.27.08 radio and the SPL that went along with it yesterday, and it's been working great so far.
Just as a warning, you have to be really careful when flashing radios/SPLs. If you flash the SPL before the radio, you will probably brick your phone.
Well, I'm using this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811620&page=126
and I think that is compatible with the 2.22.27.08 radio. I'm not sure yet if I'd want to flash it though. I think I would need HBOOT-1.33.0013d, right?
Most likely won't flash lol, 14MB additional RAM is only like... such a very small difference?

19.26, 23.02, 27.08, and 28.25 are just improvements on the radio. It tells the phone how to poll the towers and can increase signal, but more frequent polling cost power. Depending on your carrier and area, you may see an improvement, but it's not guaranteed. I gained a full bar with the 27.08 radio. I got the same plus better 3g with 28.25. But my battery only last 2 days on standby, and about 3 hrs of heavy use. That's what car charters are for.
There is an older radio that came with rc29, that can brick your phone when flashed with hboot 1.xx.xxxx or higher. 19.26 was the old "new" radio that was needed to avoid a brick. Just make sure you flash radio before hboot and you'll be fine.
Yes, you need 0013d to use the 2 newest radios, and its well worth it. 14mb of system RAM causes a significant performance boost. It's better than the old RAM hack from 1.6 and doesn't affect the gpu. There is a kernel patch that allows it to work with almost any Rom.

Okay thanks for the additional information. I tried flashing the recovery, but I get this error:
error: cannot load 'recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0-cyan.img'
What did I do wrong? The .img file is on the root of my SD and is named exactly what I input into my terminal. Is this error because I already have the amon-ra-recovery V1.7.0? But this filename has the "cyan" in it.
Oh btw I forgot to mention that my current SPL is 1.33.2005, so I should be able to flash via fastboot.
Okay never mind I got it working. New recovery, baseband, and SPL ^_^ thanks for helping guys.
I'm having a TON of issues with the current radio. I flashed the updated radio during the whole 911 patch fiasco and ever since the phone will just randomly not be able to send/receive text messages or phone calls. I've read that some of the newer radios (6.xx) and the older radios are compatible.
Current Specs:
Rom: CM 6.1.0 with patched kernel
Radio: 3.22.26.17
Model: HTC Dream 32B
You should update to the ezterry's newest radio and spl.
They also come with an extra 14MB RAM!

seems cool, but I was hoping for something simpler... Ah well if it gives me back the use of my phone...
It will, trust me if you need a guide, on how to flash it, go to the g1 development forum, its either on the first or second page

Absolutely under no circumstances *EVER* flash via recovery a 2.22.* radio when you have a 3.22.* radio it *WILL* brick your phone
on a similar note:
Absolutely under no circumstances *EVER* flash via recovery a 3.22.* radio when you have a 2.22.* radio it *WILL* brick your phone
And on that note another few reasons why we recommend using fastboot
If you have a 1.22.* radio and install Danger SPL or 1.33.0013/0013d SPLs via recovery you will also brick your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139 is safe for ALL dream users, always use that fastboot method for installing 1.33.0013d or ask ldrifta to pay for your replacement phone.. anyway those other instructions are for downgrading a t-mobile dream.. while 60% of the time it may work.. downgrading to out of region firmwares causes headaches when an NBH fails to apply the first time.. since you can't simply re-flash and move on.
(anyway the rooting guide for the e911 dreams already expects the users to install fastboot/adb so it ought to be easy to fastboot the radio+SPL.. the only real problem with my thread is some people feel overwhelmed with the full operation guide of the new phone the Radio/SPL transforms the phone into)
