I was using a theme CM 3.6.8.1 ROM today with modified launcher_7, phone and MMS. I changed the Launcher from 7 to 8 and flashed the themed ROM again and I got stuck at the G1 screen.
I fastbooted (Dreaimg.nbh) to refresh, did the usual steps, flashed RC33, the radio, then I tried to flash the original 3.6.8.1 (no theme). After flash and reboot, it took me to fastboot. I flashed JFv1.5 -ADP1.5 and it did the same thing.
I then flashed the Special SPL and then tried each ROM again which left me on the T-Mobile G1 screen.
However, when I flash RC33, it loads just fine and works normally. I tried searching for a thread that'll help me flash back to the 3.6.8.1-level ROMs but nothing seemed to match my situation.
If anyone can help or send a link to a thread that can, it'll be greatly appreciated.
So I was running OpenEclair v1.1.1, and since putting eclair on it, I've been unable to flash to any other rom. It goes through the wipe/install process, but when the device reboots I just get the rogers screen forever. I can then go back into recovery and re-flash OpenEclair to get it working again. I just got through all that hassle with rogers and made it out with my data and my root, so I was now attempting to fix this issue, and figured it couldn't hurt to upgrade my radio and try out amon ra's 1.5.2R image.
Unfortunately, I downgraded the SPL to 1.33.0009 right after trying to flash another ROM which didn't work, and performed the downgrade before I put a working ROM back on it (to use flashrec to get to amenra's), so at present I can only get into the SPL. My cyanogen1.4 recovery seems to be gone as I just get the original triangle ! logo (no menu or anything) when trying to start up in recovery mode.
Now what did I do, and how far back do I need to dig through tutorials to get back to a working rooted ROM? I'm not really sure what point I'm actually at, whether I still have root or not, or where to start.

Have you got a fastboot mode you can boot into? At least then you could fastboot boot a (non-peristent) recovery image to let you then restore from a nandroid backup...assuming you have some good backups either on the phone or on a PC that can be copied to the phone.
I should note you haven't said what kind of phone you have (G1 or Magic) or really provided anything resembling a complete set of relevant information about your phone and its current state. So it's hard to help.....even if this was the right forum...and it isn't.
Try formatting or using a new memory card.
I'm using a rogers Dream, I have a 2gb SD card with 32MB linux swap and 500MB ext3
HAD 1.33.2005 SPL, 1.4 cyanogen recovery image.
Now I have 1.33.0090, can't get into recovery.
Trying to boot normally brings me to a rogers screen.
I CAN get into fastboot, can I put cyanogen's recovery back on?
Sorry if this is the wrong forum, where should I have posted?
Also, I don't know what information IS relevant to this, so please bear with my noobness.
Is there a recovery that will let me flash a ROM without changing the SPL back to 2005? Apparently if I can get the phone to boot up I should be able to use flashrec to upgrade the radio and SPL from the point I'm currently at.
Moved as not Android Development.
So I'm not sure what I did but the phone boots now...
Holy sh** it wasn't just me. I have this SAME problem. After flashing eclair and wiping and flashing another ROM it just stays at my splashscreen FOREVER. Even broke my nandroid, so I can't restore. How I fix mine everytime: Flash a rom OVER open eclair boot up... you'll probably get a sht load of force closes and all that but once you ge tto login screen just reboot into recovery and wipe and flash or nandroid restore then it should work.
If you guys are rogers, then you will most likely be ebi1, in which case, dont forget that you must also flash an ebi1 kernal to get past the boot screen.
So the phone booted into the original 1.5, I didnt realize the downgrade of my SPL flashed the ROM too. I put flashrec on and flashed Amen Ra's new recovery image and the rogers radio update, this is what I'm at now.

Trying to flash to a custom rom again still fails. I've tried cyanogenmod, super D, and openEclair, it doesn't seem to matter. Where can I get an ebi1 kernel to flash?
E: looking at your signature, it seems I've got the right radio, I'll try using that port tool.
That did the trick! I followed the steps in your signature, flashed a rom, then flashed the ebi1 kernel and my phone booted like a dream. Pun intended.
Edit: So I'm back to only being able to run openeclair. Flashing cyanogen and then briancrook's ebi1 kernel still only gives me the rogers screen. I am however able to flash back to openEclair to get access to a working device again.
Edit: openEclair is running like garbage, it keeps completely locking up the device, I haven't even been able to log into my gmail account to get my contacts back.
Okay, I've managed to get the rom running smoothly by wiping everything, flashing the non-ramhack version of openEclair 1.2.2, then flashing the 1.2.2 ebi1 kernel. Unfortunately for some reason when I do get into eclair, I have no phone app, no settings, and no contacts app, even tho the contacts still work if i try to message someone. This is infuriating.
Hey everyone,
I need some help, a while ago I attempted to install a custom ROM for my HTC One m7. Anyway I never actually installed the custom rom so I still have my carriers version or rom still installed (Optus australia) which is the good news! The bad news is I still have TWRP recovery installed instead of the stock recovery. Now my problem is I want to install the latest update from my carrier but it keeps going into TWRP when the phone restarts to install the update. Is there away to remove TWRP and install stock recovery that comes with the phone? If so do I have to install RUU file? The problem is I cant find the RUU file for optus australia anywhere, except the nandroid file, but i think ill have problems with the touch screen if use that? So Is there a way to install stock recovery without using ruu, rom or nandroid file?
Thanks!
This might help

Hey thanks for the link. That was help full. But iv got another problem I installed the stock recovery for htc one and everything seemed ok except when i went to install the latest update from my carrier (optus AU) the phone restarted it went in to update mode and got about half way and then i got error it was a red triangle with the explanation mark.
I then hit the power button and volume up to get into its loader screen (not really sure what its called) and I restored the phone to factory settings and then rebooted the phone. I then download the update again and restarted the phone to get the red triangle and explanation mark again.
I did notice when I got into the bootloader that my device is still TAMPERED ,***UNLOCKED** and the s-on is active. Could any of these be the reason why its not installing the latest update? sorry im pretty bad at this!
Hi i bricked my device a while ago got it working again using cyanogenmod then back to stock
Problem is my hboot thinks im on 2.16.401.2 but software on the device is 2.16.401.1
I think these need to match in order for ota to work ive tried already lots of times
Im on stock recovery and stock kernel nothing else changed
Any help would be appreciated thanks
I suggest u to flash a custom recovery and flash the last stock rom i've post on the development thread. Its the last one 2.18
Thanks for the reply will
I flashed your rom.. But it didnt work .. No radio.. I flashed the boot.img too
The phone booted but everything was screwed up. Lots of errors kept coming up
I want to be able to get stock ota to work
Did u wipe everything ?
Yes i did after install baseband is blank
I have the cyanogenmod baseband on my phone cannot change it
Cant flash radio because we dont have s off
I tried in fastboot mode and ruu mode both fail
I reflashed stock after a TWRP backup sent me into a bootloop and now my phone can't recognize the SIM or connect to Wifi. Can somebody please help?
Edit: I'm not sure why this worked, but I fixed this by trying to flash the Havoc custom ROM. The ROM wouldn't boot, but when I reflashed stock afterwards, the problem was fixed.
was your imei intact before you reflashed back to stock

I'm not sure if you're referring to when I reflashed stock and had problems or when I reflashed stock after trying to flash Havoc and fixed it. I can't answer either way because both times I reflashed I was stuck in a bootloop, so I couldn't check the IMEI.

Since everything works when you have the Android One ROM installed, try backing up the EFS with that ROM installed and restoring on the ROM you want to use.
No wifi after flashing ROM
I had the same thing happen after flashing a ROM. In my case, it was a repeatable error. I reflashed the modem partition from the stock modem after flashing the custom ROM and everything started working again.
