Hello all.... I am working on a group project where we will be using a dev G1. The phone was shipped to a another group member and before I can get my hands on it, he decided to upgrade the firmware from 1.0 to 1.6, having very little knowledge of android beforehand and therefore he cant really tell me what exactly he did either. He followed the directions on the HTC website. As far as i can tell, I do have the 26I radio, engineering SPL and 1.6 installed currently, not sure about the recovery though (i.e. stock 1.0 or 1.6). When I got the phone, root access was gone but followed some simple steps on this website to regain it. By way of typing in "su" in terminal emulator and in ADB shell, I now also have su. However I still cant flash anything. When trying to flash cm 4.2.5 in the recovery, the system verifies it and then aborts installation. I then tried to install the Amon-RA recovery to no avail. Tried fastboot, ADP, terminal, im not sure how to access the /data/ partition on the phone and there is no option for acessing the console in the recovery menu. Installing through ADB dosnt work, no test-keys in current recovery. In fastboot it says "okay" for both sending and writing the recovery but rebooting into recovery shows that it didnt work. In terminal it says "flash_image: not found". I'm kinda lost and need some help....
All I need is cm4.2.5 on the phone with root.
Thanks in advance.....
Edit: I triple and quadruple checked the name of the recovery image when trying to install through terminal. I'm pretty sure it cant find the command "flash_image" and not the file itself. Just wanted to clarify...
You could try downgrading to RC29: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...ngrading_to_RC29_.28US.29_or_RC7_.28Europe.29

Tried that, already... That method only works for the stock T-Mobile G1's which have a different SPL. The Dev G1's come with engineering SPL and I have no idea how to flash the .nbh image from that. All it does I think is enable Fastboot, I cant get it to do anything else.
This fails?
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Nope... No luck, it says:
sending 'recovery' <4456kb>.... OKAY
writing 'recovery' <4456kb>.... OKAY
and then I reboot using "fastboot reboot", wait till the homescreen loads, and then go back into recovery and it still shoes the the triangle and the !.....
Bump...
Anyone?? Right now we just have a reallly expensive paper-weight in our hands ANY help/thoughts/comments would be very appreciated...
This thread is meaningless since there is NO SUCH THING as a "DEV G1".

Do you see ANYTHING on there that says "G1"?
Answer: No you definitely do NOT.
If I remember correctly, after you use fastboot to flash the new recovery image, you can't let the phone reboot or it will overwrite the recovery with the stock recovery image
The solution would be to use fastboot to flash either Cyanogen's or Amon_RA's recovery image, and be quick here, but when you send the fastboot reboot command be holding down the home button on the phone so it will boot to the custom recovery image

My HTC One M7 is stuck at HTC logo and will not boot further. I've tried many methods, but cannot repair the phone. It's M7 Europe HTC_001 Firmware 1.29.401.13.
With bootloader unlocked I flash cwm recovery and tried to copy custom rom to flash but phone cannot mount usb storage. I tried to flash stock RUU 1.28.401.7, it won't flash because of hboot error. I tried to flash PN07IMG_1.29.401.13.zip using fastboot flash zip. firmware.;zip, with locked or unlocked bootloader, it won't flash, giving error.
Is there any full RUU 1.29.401.17 or RUU 2.17.401.1 firmware out there for download? I think that's my only solution is to get the same or higher full and not OTA firmware. Would it be possible to ADB push custom rom to phone if it can only power and stuck at logo? Or any other solution, please help, thanks.

Thanks for your help but I've tried all that. First phone cannot "mount USB storage" in custom recovery so I cannot copy any file to the phone. Flashing stock RUU is not possible because there is no RUU 1.29.401.13.exe or higher, only OTA. Is it possible to downgrade hboot with s-on and in fastboot mode? Any other suggestion? Thanks.

Hope this helps
I've tried to use adb push method but when I put phone to recovery (phone shows red triangle) and run command adb devices, it cannot see the device. Is it because of the drivers? I've installed all drivers and do not see any drivers error in device manager...I really appreciate all the helps from everyone and I spent so much time trying to fix this phone already and I feel I'm so closed now to fix it but just need little more help..Thanks..

Thanks for your tips and advice..After many hours of trying, my phone is NOW ALIVE. This is how I did it:
1)Find a custom rom from this forum and rename to rom.zip, of course if you use windows like me with .zip extension hidden then just simply rename it rom (to make it simple and short) and copy it to adb shell folder.
2)After unlock bootloader, flash a custom recovery, find it in this forum or here: http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager
3) Boot phone to recovery, and select Install zip from sideload and plug phone to PC. Wait until phone installs all adb drivers..
4) In adb shell type command: "adb devices" without quotes, of course..to make sure adb sees your phone..You should see your devices name.
5) In adb type commad" adb sideload rom.zip..at this point you should see "sending: sideload....1%..wait until it show 100%..some roms like the one I used, Android Revolution HD One 12 (4.2.2) need to install from the screen, just follow instruction on screen and let it finish installation and wola, it's alive again..
I hope this will help someone who have similar problem with this phone. Thanks for the help from everyone.

epic, thank you for the useful post
Hey Guys,
I have scoured forums for hours trying to copy solutions and i am at wits end.
I was running the latest version of arhd and chose to switch to Paranoid. In recovery, as you do, i accidentally formatted everything so now there is no directory, roms etc on the phone at all.
I am able to get into recovery but adb sideload wont work. I can sometimes get ADB to recognize the device but it wont allow me to push or sideload. I really don't know what else to do. Any information i can give you please let me know.
Regards
Check that you have the latest version of adb installed, then you should get sideload to work.

Hey thanks Paul, I currently have Clockwork mod recovery 6.0.3.1 that i am able to get into, but when i go to "install zip from sideload" it says "failed to open driver control: no such file or directory" twice.
I have installed the latest ADB drivers.
Seems to be driving me nuts at the moment.

Just to confirm, CWM wont allow me to mount anything, i have nothing on the phone (no roms, recoveries etc), when i reboot the phone and allow it to sit on the htc screen with red warning text, i can sometimes get the device recognised by adb however, when trying to push or sideload anything onto it, it tells me i do not have permissions or that it is read only.

This link should give you a copy of a Stock nandroid backup, but for the 64gb Dev Edition. Not sure what phone you have.
I don't have all the links on my work computer and forgethow I searched, but look for "Fastboot recovery" or something like that.

Basically you need the latest version of HTC driver for your pc, plus latest adb on pc and latest cwm or twrp recovery on your HTC One
It's been a while since I used CWM recovery as I now prefer twrp recovery.
However you seem to have a fairly old version of cwm recovery, I would suggest first flashing a more recent recovery, either cwm or twrp.
Then reboot to recovery, check that your HTC One is seen on pc by typing adb devices
It should list the serial number of your phone.
Then select sideload options in recovery, then follow instructions, which is usually
adb sideload name_of_rom.zip
Hope this helps

s-off using fastboot -> not as far as i know; reflash a compatible rom for rumrunner or revone (depending on your firmware), and get s-of.

go to bootloader, select fastboot then
./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img //recovery.img is the custom recovery file you downloaded, either CWM TWRP.
./flash erase cache
reboot to recovery then you can do

In TWRP you go to advanced, then ADB Sideload, then swipe.
Then run adb sideload androidrom.zip
Also, where did this androidrom.zip come from??

We got the name androidrom.zip from your first screen shot. If that's not the actual rom name it should be. If you created android.zip use android.zip
