hi,
I have a G1 that I got with unrooted 1.6
I followed instructions at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod to get CM 4.2 on the phone, that worked without any problems
I then installed DangerSPL and followed instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=672992 to get CM 5.0.7 installed, and that also worked.
When I installed ROM Manager to partition SD card for apps2sd, the phone would not boot any more, it kept getting stuck at the G1 / T-mobile screen
I then entered fastboot and reinstalled RC7 (DREAIMG.nbh)... that booted without a problem... I then re-flashed cm-recovery-1.4, went into recovery and installed cm 5.0.7 and gapps... I'm not sure but I may have skipped radio and danger this time around
since then the phone won't boot or enter recovery or enter fastboot... any attempts to boot into any of those results in the phone getting permanently stuck on the G1 / T-mobile screen
I'm out of ideas here, so any help would be greately appreciated.
thanks,

Why would you unroot just because a ROM wouldn't get past the G1 screen. Too bad you didn't post about that instead of completely unrooting and trying again.
Oh, you probably didn't miss danger spl the second time around and forgot to flash radio and now you're soft bricked. Sorry, there's nothing we can do.

So basically, I just got through doing the SPL update (I was re-rooting my phone) and now it just hangs at the G1 splash screen.
I've tried booting into the Recovery (I've already applied Cyan's 1.4 recovery img) using (Pwr+Home) and the other things (Pwr+Camera) and still, there's nothing.
Now, I don't have a phone.
And I'm starting to /rage...
Is there anyway I can reflash the R29 without being able to access anything on my phone? just so my phone works atm?

Did you flash the radio before the SPL? Because if ya didn't then you bricked your phone... If you can't boot into recovery or get the SPL to come up.. you're toast. double
For some odd reason everytime I try to install the cyanogen rom v4.0.4 I believe its one of the stable ones, I do everything to root my fone and install the rom and my fone says its done w the updates and to reboot it and when I do it stays @ the g1 screen. Now I take the battery out and press the cam and end buttons to reinstall the dreaimg to take it back to rc29 state. When I power it up it works just fine the lil android dude pops up and i put in my info and then just redo the steps to the cyanogen rom and for some reason my fone will install everything I will assume properly and i go to reboot it and it stays on the tmobile g1 screen.
I need help! I have tried and tried and Idk what to do now.
This all started bc I deleted something from the cm updater and my fone hasnt worked since...if ne one can help me plz email me @ [email protected]....
Thanx!

Yes. That's a clear description of a "brick"
I recently replaced my G1 cause of a hardware issue. I got a new one, downgraded to RC29, gained root, flashed recovery, flashed HardSPL, flashed 22.02 radio, then tried flashing DangerSPL and got stuck on G1 screen. So I downgraded again and redid everything except trying to flash DangerSPL, and then tried installing SuperD 1.9.3. It installed, but when I rebooted it just boots into fastboot mode. So I tried nondanger eclair and same thing. So I downgraded to RC29 and now I cant get passed bootloader screen. I'm not holding te camera button when I reboot it or anything. Any ideas or suggestions?
I am trying to fix a G1 for a friend its stuck at the triangle with the exclamation mark I have tried to the Alt+l And then Alt+s
and then tried to load a rom but nothing I am a noob ,I have an Evo that I have rooted and loaded custom roms so I am not a complete idiot but I am not familiar with the G1 Please someone direct me.
Thanks,
Try to flash an (official) ROM via Bootloader (hold cam button while powering on).
If you have some kind of engineering spl (often present on a rooted phone), you can flash a new recovery via fastboot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719) and then flash a rom from the new recovery.
If that doesn't work you will have to flash a stock image.
If there is a valid dreamimg.nbh (get one for the right brand like tmobile, rogers...) on the sdcard you will be able to flash it from the bootloader. You will loose root though, if you alread had it.
Tried that and it didnt work even tried to install that dreamimg.nbh file still no luck
