Hi Everyone,
I am been visiting xda since I got my g1/adp1 over a year ago. I have been using it and it has been doing very well for me. Back in January I had flashed a rom and I had ended up with the hardspl. Since then for some odd reason, I was never able to flash the dangerspl or engineering spl. So from what I looked over on the forum, I used the dream.nbh file and went back to the original release and then flashed the cupcake update as advised in one of the posts here. After doing that, I was able to log in and install FlashRec and install the Amon Ra 1.6.2 recovery.
However, after doing that, I tried to flash the updated Radio and the hard spl, and I have been unsuccessful. Prior to installing the radio, I do the wipe/factory reset and then flash the ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip. After it complete it and pressing back + home, it even says writing radio image. However, when I boot into android or fastboot, it still shows that radio is 1.22.12.29. And the spl is the original 0.95.0000. I have also followed the procedure in the above link to install the radio then hard spl and then the cyanogen Cyanogen4.2.12.2 installation. I was able to boot into the rom; however the radio is still 1.22.12.29 and the spl is 0.95.0000.
With regards to info on the phone, it is DREA100 PVT 32B. So I would really appreciate anyone’s advice on how I can restore it to the engineering SPL or install the hard spl and then switch to the danger spl; and also update the radio. Thank you

When installing a radio or SPL, you need to follow its instructions.
That means that when you start in recovery mode and flash the "update.zip" matching your radio, its first step is to write it (to the cache partition), then reboot into update-radio mode, then write it AGAIN (to the radio partition), then reboot into recovery and format the cache partition.
You need to follow it the WHOLE WAY THROUGH -- not stop at the first stage and call it good.
Hi,
As mentioned before, I did follow the guide to the T on re-rooting and reflashing. I followed both ttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606147 and also ttp://theunlockr.com/2010/04/26/how-to-root-the-htc-g1dream/ + ttp://theunlockr.com/2010/04/26/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-the-htc-g1-dream/ . However, neither of these procedures resulted in the installation of the hard spl or the updated radio ota-radio-2_22_19_26I. The adp1 continues to be to have the Original G1 Spl 0.95.0000 and radio 1.22.12.29 from the flashing of the Dream nbh file.
So could anyone please advise on what else I can do to flash and update the spl and the radio. Thank you ^^.
you can try to flash the radio through adb/fastboot its better and safer to do..
oh? can you please tell me the adb commands to use to flash the new radio? I have look at the ADB guide for dummies and ttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719 & ttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517874 . I can't seem to figure out how to install radio via adb. When I had the hardspl, I could install radio, system, boot, etc via fastboot. But adb is unfamiliar to me as I have never been successful with it. So can you please guide me with the commands to follow ^^. Thank you in advance.
Thats what i meant was fastboot that was my noobieness to say adb.. flash radio thru fastboot...
Yes, fastboot is where I am trying to get too. However, the original G1 spl is not letting me access fastboot. If have files on the sdcard, in fastboot it shows serial0. But when I wipe it, it shows nothing under the original g1 fastboot mode.
So can someone advice me on what I can do to install hardspl or engineering spl to get fastboot working again T.T.
same problem
hi! am having exactly the same problem. stuck on stock SPL (hboot 0.95.0000) and radio (1.22.12.29). flashing radio via recovery (RA-dream-1.7.0) yields same results (formatting cache...). tried rebooting after reboot by radio but i still end up with old radio.
any thoughts?
i want to update radio so i can flash dangerSPL and be able to flash CM6.
TIA!
Yep, that's exactly how it works. First off, are you using T-Mobile USA?
Remember to NEVER flash DangerSPL on a 1.x, 4.x, or 6.x radio!!
The following are compatible radios that you can safely flash before you flash DangerSPL:
2.22.23.02 (T-Mobile USA)
3.22.26.17 (Rogers CA)
3.22.20.17 (Orange UK)
2.22.19.26I (Non-US)
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
CyanogenMod V6.0.0 Stable / HBOOT-1.33.2005 / Radio 2.22.23.02 T-Mobile USA
using a T-Mobile G1 outside the U.S.
ok, since i can't update radio as it stands, here's my plan.
1. reboot to recovery mode
2. flash HardSPL
3. flash radio
(... if radio update successful)
4. flash DangerSPL
5. flash CyanogenMod6
6. do the funky chicken!
sounds good?
Yes, but I don't think that will make a difference. You should be able to flash the radio successfully on a stock HBOOT. I've never had problems flashing the radio before, so I don't know. But sure, you can update the HBOOT to HardSPL, but I don't think it'll make any difference.

exact same problem
Having the exact same problem. I have literally spent 2 days trying to do this.
Trying to do the whole CMwiki procedure, unlockr procedure, and various others.
Luckily I didn't brick it.
But I am in the same boat, now matter what I try, after flashing the radio via
recovery amon-ra 1.7 I check on fastbook and it is still 1.22 version of radio.
I have the stock Hboot, etc....
Has anyone had luck with fastboot / adb flashing the radio??
Thanks for any help.

Flash HBOOT 1.33.2003:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6510019&postcount=76
Once 1.33.2003 is installed you can install 1.33.2005 via fastboot as on the post I linked to .. or skip directly to the newer 2708+ radios/SPLs with extra ram:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
ok guys hopefully i can solve this problem.. i never had this issue but have had slight problems almost like so here was my solution....
Stage 1 un-rooting (very simple)
1. download update.zip and DREAIMG.nbh files here...
DREAIMG.nbh http://www.4shared.com/file/9izdCbvo/DREAIMG.html
update.zip http://www.4shared.com/file/ePnmmoxA/update.html
2. boot into recovery mode and do complete wipe of everything, also repartition your sd card set 0mb swap and 0mb ext..
3. then either use usb mounting through recovery or power off and place sd card in comp to copy files over.. than put back in phone and boot in recovery.
4. flash update.zip
5. power on in boot loader and flash DREAIMG.nbh
6. reboot and do normal setup just to make sure you are 1.0 firmware
Stage 2 Re-Root device..
1. download update.zip, flashrec, recovery.img, radio and spl files here...
1.5 update http://www.4shared.com/file/EyiKXmTd/update.html
flashrec http://www.4shared.com/file/ABXfQQ1H/flashrec-113-20091107-2.html
radio 2.22.23.02 http://www.4shared.com/file/jGTeRvfs/G1-radio-2_22_23_02.html
SPL http://www.4shared.com/file/nJkB58Qf/Latest_G1_SPL.html
recovery http://www.4shared.com/file/zCVPjMUz/recovery-RA-dream-v170-cyan.html
2. place files on your sd card than boot into recovery
3. flash update.zip (gets you to firmware 1.5)
4. now boot up normal and go to settings, check in applications and check unknown sources and usb debugging.
5. go to market and download "oi file manager" open app and select the flashrec file
6. when finished select open, then press backup recovery, then type in the box sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.0.7-cyan.img then select flash recovery image.
7. when finished power off phone then boot into recovery.. wipe data factory reset, then flash the radio.zip press home+back to complete installation
8. wipe data again, now flash spl.zip, press home+back to complete..
9. now partition sd card.. i use 128mb swap and 1024mb ext4...
Stage 3 advanced rooting
1. download danger spl, fr boot, super wipe, radio and hboot files here...
fr boot http://www.4shared.com/file/gjRmpuh7/FR-boot-v157-CustomMTD_S.html
hboot (0.33.0013d) http://www.4shared.com/file/tfbsSTys/hboot0013d-signed.html
superwipe http://www.4shared.com/file/qm3gl7fQ/Ohsaka-SuperWipe_v2.html
radio (2.22.28.25) http://www.4shared.com/file/tMqoIX3p/update_2222825_S.html
2. place files on root of sd card
3. boot into revovery wipe data cache all that good stuff than flash the spl.zip let finish...
4. flash superwipe, power off than rebbot to recovery then do manual wipe of everything data, cache, battery, sd partition.. then repair sd..
5. flash the fr boot file, then go to console and type reboot recovery
6. flash radio file, let it finish then flash the hboot file.. power off than power on in fastboot mode (camera+power) and check phone stats.. should be on latest radio and hboot and s-on than you are free to flash roms from here...
So I have been stuck at 1.5 forever. I got the phone the first day it came out and rooted it as soon as it was available but got lazy about it after that and never messed with it.
So I finally decided to install Cyanogen Mod 6/2.2 for the phone and took the plunge. I followed the instructions and everything went well up until the flashing the new radio (2.22.23.02). It seemed to go fine until it prompted me for a reboot and first said installing, but now it's been stuck at Formatting CACHE:... for over 10 minutes.
I haven't touched anything and was hoping someone could let me know the proper course of action. I'm using Amon_Ra Recovery image BTW.
Also, I had already downloaded everything in anticipation of the 2.2 upgrade and the DangerSPL zip file is 0KB. I'm going out on a limb here and assuming that's incorrect.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/mygwqxgmdz2te2j/haykuro_new_spl-signed.zip
there is danger SPL.. also is it at the recovery menu saying formattin cache, are you able to move the thru the menu using the track ball?
Yeah, I can move through the menu just fine. I just don't know what to select.
Ok thats fine then Lol... your ok you can continue to do what you wanted to do...
once flash new radio it will want to reboot so reboot and it will isntall new radio and should go back to Recovery
let it do its thing once you are able to move around in recovery menu you can continue with the steps of flashing new rom..
Oh, ok. Thanks. I just thought something was wrong because it was still flashing messages at the bottom like it was doing something until it got to that formatting cache, and I thought it would have automatically rebooted if it went correctly since I had already selected reboot.
Again, thank you.
Oh, and the haykuro spl will work fine instead of the death spl? Is it just another version of the death spl?
Flashing Radio
Please follow the instructions that correspond to the custom recovery image on the HTC Dream to flash the radio.
Amon_Ra's Recovery process
1. Download the latest version of the radio (2.22.23.02).
2. Place the radio update.zip file on the root of your SD card.
3. Boot into the Amon_Ra's Recovery.
* Power off the HTC Dream, and reboot holding the Home button plus the power button.
4. Once you enter Amon_Ra's Recovery, scroll up & down with the trackball, and the trackball button to select.
5. Select Flash zip from sdcard.
6. Select the radio update.zip.
The Nexus One will reboot during this process.
7. Once the installation has finished, select Reboot system. Now the HTC Dream's Baseband version should now be 2.22.23.02.

Prerequisites
1. A rooted G1/Dream
2. A compatible radio (IMPORTANT: If you just rooted, the RC29/RC7 install includes a 1.x radio and you MUST install one of the 2.x radios below before DangerSPL)
* 2.22.23.02 seems to get more bars for T-Mobile US customers, though non-US users might have better luck with 2.22.19.26i.
* (HardSPL/Engineering Spl Users) Radio installations can be had by fastboot flash radio radio.img after extracting radio.img from the .zip
* Either of the following radio versions is acceptable.
o Radio 2.22.19.26I
o Radio 2.22.23.02 (G1)
o Rogers Dream users: A 3.X radio is Danger compatible (eg 3.22.26.17)
Failure to meet the Prerequisites WILL result in a BRICK!
Files required
1. DangerSPL: Download
2. Latest version of CyanogenMod 5/6
3. Corresponding latest version of Google Apps
4. Roger's & Orange Dream ONLY: Corresponding latest version of the EBI1 kernel
Steps
It has been brought up that Clockwork Recovery struggles with this guide, so Amon_ra is v1.7.0 recommended. If you have CM or older recovery, upgrade to Amon_Ra first.
Please if you need to diverge from these steps for any reason start over from step 1 when you return.
1. Boot into Fastboot (Power on the phone holding the camera button) This will either show a screen with dancing androids or a "rainbow" splash. Here you will find the hboot/radio version:
* radio 1.x: You will need to upgrade this to a 2.x radio before running this process.. please upgrade and re-do this step (Ie. verify you see the updated radio in fastboot before continuing)
* radio 2.x: You may press MENU+SEND+END at the same time and proceed (unless hboot-1.33.2005 is installed; indicating you already have DangerSPL)
* radio 3.x: You may press MENU+SEND+END at the same time and proceed (unless hboot-1.33.2005 is installed; indicating you already have DangerSPL)
2. Copy DangerSPL, CyanogenMod 5/6, and the Google Apps (also the EBI1 kernel port if required) to the root of your SD card.
3. Reboot/Boot into your custom recovery by holding down the 'home' key before the G1 splash appears.
4. Make a Nandroid Backup (ext not required) (recommended for upgrading users, not required for freshly-rooted users)
5. Flash DangerSPL. It will install and then ask you to reboot to finish the installation
6. Reboot as prompted at the bottom of the screen. This will finish installing DangerSPL and reboot back into recovery so you can flash your ROM.
7. Once back into recovery Wipe Data/Factory Reset
8. Flash CyanogenMod 5/6 THEN the Google Apps (also the EBI1 kernel port if required); then reboot (Boot may take longer than normal)
9. Login to Android/Google as usual.
* Optional: Reboot to recovery, and issue a Nandroid Restore, then follow the regular instructions .
o This command will attempt to restore user data.
o Restoring will also restore your previous Firmware, so you have to follow the instructions to get 5.0.x again
o Note: If this causes undesired consequences (ie bootloops, FC's, etc) then run Fix Permissions/'Fix UID Mism

Lol i love that whole mix up.. to clear things up...
Death/Danger/Haykuro are all but one in the same, jus different ppl use the name
If you ever notice they are all the same hboot which is 1.3.00 or something like that.. and those three names require the same method, flash new radio then the SPL... so those are the same jus different name
There is only 3/4 SPL
Hard SPL
Engineer SPL
Death/Danger/Haykuro SPL
G1 original SPL
Can i flash the new radio(2.22.27.08) and spl(1.33.0013d) via the ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 recovery(or RA 1.7.0)??
I have the files downloaded from a mytouch 3g thread and want to know if i can flash them over the recovery?it says there they are flashable but can i flash them with an HTC Dream??
wipe-flash radio-wipe-flash spl-wipe-flash rom
or will i brick my device??
Or can someone send me a german introduction how to set up fastboot on windows xp??i dont get the english one
Phone: HTC Dream (rooted)
ROM: COS-DS 03042011 2.3.3 Gingerbread
Radio: 2.22.23.02
Spl: 1.33.2005
sdcard: 2gb ; ext/3
You can flash spl and radio using recovery, but I would *not* suggest you to do so, because the risk of bricking your phone is much higher, than flashing by fastboot.
To setup a fastboot environment on XP you can try to have a look at www.android-hilfe.de There are many people using a windows environment and I suppose they have a setup instruction in German, too.
I agree. To flash it via Fastboot safer. First flash Bootloader and reboot your phone, then flash new radio and reboot phone again.
thanks for reply!i will try it now with fastboot!if it wont work i try it via recovery
Helo
I have a question. I flashed via fastboot the radio(2.22.27.08) and spl(1.33.0013d) and i have a problem with the batery. I want to put back the old radio and spl and the problem is that i cannot flash it via fastboot the mesage is:
failedremote:signature verify fail)
Somebody some ideas
Pls read the OP of ezTerry's 2708-thread (a link can be found in my signature). But I doubt, that the radio is the reason for your battery problems.
Sent from my Gingerbread on Dream using XDA App
Agreed with AndDiSa. It also depending on what ROM you use and the apps that you have on your phone.
I made the change of radio and spl like in the link in the signature and it was ok(Radio: 2.22.27.08, SPL: 1.33.0013d), the flashing was working. The rom is update-cm-6.1.0-RC1-DS-2708port_S.zip because the update-cm-6.1.0-DS-2708port_S.zip is entering in boot loop.
Like you sad that this is probably a radio image problem that's why i tried to flash the old image back with the spl and i had that error message. Also I tried to change my splash image via fastboot(to flash it) and the result is the same
Mine is also bootlooping on COS-DS rom with this radio/hboot combo...probably just a radio error or something
Hi all.
I have htc G1 with:
HardSPL - 10.95.3000
Radio -2.22.19.26I
PVT Board
I am running old SuperD 1.11 and I want to upgrade to newest version of android. Should I do an upgrade to 10.33.2003 and modify partitions with Firerat script or do an upgrade to DeathSPL ?
Is it safe ?
start here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
rom links here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079194
for now ignore the poll, play around with each rom and decide for yourself
best place to start is probably EzGinger, be sure to install gapps !
according to ur links and this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6510019&postcount=76
He only mentions a flashing from RC29 not from HardSPL. So should I do an downgrade first ?
I am a bit confused but if I think correctly I should:
1.Do an upgrade to 1.33.2003
Code:
== Installing 1.33.2003 from stock RC29** SPL: ==
> From RC29 telnetd to root as usual
> install ra recovery
> flash the spl_1_33_2003.zip
> reboot system when prompted
2.Do
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio-2.22.27.08.img
fastboot flash hboot hboot-1.33.0013d.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
(I dont need recovery flashing becouse I have it)
and
Code:
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
3.Flash the new rom from recovery
4.Eventually flash the ezBiffTestKernel20110222-2708_S.zip
Is it correct ?

Click to expand...

no need to downgrade, RC29 is just a baseline reference point
since you already have root, a custom recovery and a 2.x radio you can proceed directly to flashing the 1.33.2003 SPL
one you have 1.33.2003 SPL you will have full fastboot functionality
you could choose to stick with 1.33.2003 and use Firerat's cMTD with SPL Spoofing and keeping all of the fastboot goodness.
The 1.33.0013d SPL doesn't have full fastboot functions
BUT the extra 14mb ram is well worth it, you will just have to use recovery to flash new recoveries or if the worst come to pass and recovery is broken, you would need to downgrade the SPL using the Orange.nbh in Ezterry's post, fastboot a working recovery and redo the 2825 radio and 1.33.0013d again
Most, if not all, the current ROMs support the 1.33.0013d SPL and 2825 radio combo
and even if the ROM doesn't it is not too difficult to simply flash a compatible Kernel
And nothing to stop you using cMTD either
btw, go straight for the 2825 radio instead of radio-2.22.27.08.img
it is newer , just ignore what everyone says about US / EU and battery drain
Both Radios are Global, 2825 quickly replaced 2708 during roll out as a security update
and battery life is the same on 2825 and 2708
my choice would be to un-root first just so you dont mix anything up you forgot about..
first i would back up anything you want to keep including whats on your sd card so you can un partition it. all you need to do is re partition it and set swap as 0 and ext as 0.
now Just flash this update.zip in recovery first, than apply DREAIMG.nbh in fastboot mode.
DREAIMG.nbh http://www.4shared.com/file/9izdCbvo/DREAIMG.html
update.zip http://www.4shared.com/file/ePnmmoxA/update.html
simple as that! and you are back on 1.0 original stock firmware.
now update to 1.5 http://www.4shared.com/file/EyiKXmTd/update.html
now from here you root again.. download these files.
flashrec http://www.4shared.com/file/ABXfQQ1H/flashrec-113-20091107-2.html
radio http://www.4shared.com/file/jGTeRvfs/G1-radio-2_22_23_02.html
spl http://www.4shared.com/file/nJkB58Qf/Latest_G1_SPL.html
recovery http://www.4shared.com/file/zCVPjMUz/recovery-RA-dream-v170-cyan.html
place all the files on the root of your sd
now go on your phone download io file manager from the market, allow permissions and everything open the program and flash the flashrec file.
now press backup recovery let finish workin.. than type in the box
sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0-cyan.img
now press flash recovery let it work and your good! now power off device and reboot in recovery and do a wipe!
now you can flash the radio! do another wipe after reboot into recovery
and now flash the spl file! and now you should be able to flash tha Danger SPL
http://www.4shared.com/file/iYzhTaMc/spl-signed.html
just do same thing place on root of sd do a data wipe and flash that file and you will have danger spl and you can re partition your sd.. my prefference 128mb swap and 1024mb ext4
also you can now upgrade to newer radios like 2.22.28.25 just look arounf xda for the how to

a complete waste of time
radio is compatible so flash 1.33.2003
then fastboot 2825 radio and 1.33.0013d SPL
then flash rom
no point messing about reverting to stock and putting yourself in a brick risk situation
that would be a completely stupid noob move
Thanks Effdee ! Everything works great
I flashed 1.33.0013d, newest radio and newest ezGinger . Everything worked smoothly and without errors.

Don't thank me, thank Ezterry it's all his work
OK! It's been a while since I started a topic.
I might already know the answer to this, but just to check and see.
I am currently using Amon RA recovery 1.7.0 Cyan, and now I want to change it to the Amon RA recovery 1.7.0.
I downloaded the Recovery Flasher to see if I can flash it that way, it fail to do the backup.
Can I use terminal emulator or boot into console and flash it using the command line from the phone?
Or, do I have to use ADB to flash it?
be careful flashing recovery with Recovery Flasher and adb, especially when you have a different partition layout, i.e. using custom mtd.
The most secure (and for sure working) way: use fastboot, but having the 0013d SPL this means you need to get an engineering SPL first ...
Thanks for the fast response.

I do not have a custom mtd (not to my knowledge). Flash Recovery does not work (get errors), and I am far off at using ADB. Since I no longer have the computer I originally setup ADB with. So these options will be out for me.

The most secure (and for sure working) way: use fastboot, but having the 0013d SPL this means you need to get an engineering SPL first ...

Don't know if I want to go through that trouble again just to change from one to the other.
How easy is it anyway to revert back to engineering SPL from 0013d?
It's easy, everything is described in Terry's thread. Read especially the parttitled with "== Important Information about 1.33.0013d =="
Thanks again, that is fairly easy. Before I really jump in (if I do, since this is the only phone I got for now), should I also revert back to radio 2.22.27.08 before I flash the Eng SPL? Sicne ezTerry indicated radio 2.22.27.08, not radio 2.22.28.25.
Sorry for a lot of question, I didn't want to end up bricking my G1.

If you just temporarily need an engineering SPL (and recovery is working):
(and have SPL 1.33.0013 + radio 2.22.27.08):
1) Nanroid backup
2) Flash (via recovery) ENG SPL 1.33.2005 **
3) do what you need to in the engineering SPL
4) reflash 1.33.0013d as above (install, reboot bootloader, fastboot erase)
5) restore nandroid
** Please remember if you have CustomMTD to remove it before flashing a SPL of Radio from recovery

Flashing the orange nbh will erase also your radio, so you will need to flash a new one. Whether you choose 2.22.27.08 or 2.22.28.25 is not important. Both of them will work.
Btw. as long as you use fastboot for flashing radio / spl chances are quite good that you will not brick your phone.

Just changing the background
OK! I come to the conclusion that it not worth the trouble to go through all the steps to change from 1.7.0-cyan to 1.7.0. I can live with the font color.
Is there anyway to just replace the Cyan Android background instead?
Sorry for the trouble.
