I'm stuck on EPE 76 and trying to root the phone. Where is the OTA 2.2?
Come on guys. This sucks! I can't update or do anything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=712983 Right here bud, not to sound like a douche, but it wasn't hard to find lol. Although freaking out doesn't help, I did the same thing last night, and was trying to get root on FRF83 or w.e. but the links weren't working so i just went back to 2.2 GOOD LUCK (use the universal upgrade)
Thanks, I tried the universal update and it couldn't be found in fast boot. How is this loaded?
Fixed. For some reason the update wouldn't load in fastboot because "update" was called "update.zip".
The only way to learn is by doing. Including some panic lol.

Hello everyone, my HTC DREAM touch screen just died on me today meaning it doesn't detect me. I tried battery pull and soft/hard reset and even wipe. I plan on bringing it back to rogers for a replacement or repair but I gotta revert this back to stock. My Phone is rooted and is rogers its also running cyanogen. How I unroot and install the factory firmware, i have looked through google and here and i may missed some or didn't see any results that reflected what I was looking for.
You obviously did not search Google correctly.
Al you'll really need is to find the DREAIMG.nbh file for RC29, and use fastboot to flash it over. That should take you to 1.0, I believe. You may need to find an official OTA update for Cupcake to flash as well, you may not.

Just getting it back to 1.0 is fine. All the OP would have to say is he never wanted to get the updates.
Here is the factory cupcake build you can use. http://androidoverdrive.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=85
So if I unrooted using the DREAIMG.nbh procedure 48 hours ago, how long do I have to wait for the OTA upgrade to bring me current? Is there anything I can do to hurry it along? For example, will it not come through if certain apps are being used, etc? Or do I just ... wait longer?
ummm, Rogers doesn't have OTA updates. Just get the e911 update thing from rogers and run that. It will unroot you and put you to the latest rom.
FYI you can now say good bye to root as the new phone that you get from rogers will not allow root.
I feel for you as I am in the same stupid F'N sinking boat. F Rogers.

I will not scold you for not reading enough or reading correctly. I have been reading this site, others, and searching for 3 months to get to the point where I am now. There are thousands of posts and it is often difficult to piece it all together and sort the wheat from the chaff.
I can offer what I have found.

I thought this post might be helpful since it offers a stock rogers rom, but it says 32A, so I don't konw if that will work with the Dream.

This seems cool, but i can't find an md5sum for it, so there seems to be no way to verify the download. It would be a shame to brick the phone with a bad download.
I wonder if anyone has used it successfully and has a checksum?
Maybe [email protected] could help us?

Regardless, heres the original radio (3.22.20.17) and the original recovery (WARNING: UNROOTED) from rogers dream:

"
but again, I cannot find and md5sum for the file, so I am a bit hesitant to use it if a brick could result.
I think suggestion #2 would be great if there was a checksum for the file.
I would keep a copy of it handy as well if I could verify it.

I had my phone rooted and it worked great then my phone was stolen. When the replacement came in I rooted it first thing with fresh 2.1.2 but my phone would not receive or make calls.
So then I had to run the 1.5 RUU to get back to stock thinking I was going to have to get some warrant work. Well that bricked my phone getting the 110 error that many other seem to get too.
I found the fix, and opened command prompt and ran fastboot oem boot. This fixed my phone and I was back running 1.5
After testing my phone, I seen that it made calls with not problem and it was the fresh rom that was messing my phone up. I decided I would not root my phone again, instead just install the 2.1 update. I tried to update through the phone but it did not work so I downloaded the 2.1 RUU and ran it.
I've been using the 2.1 update now for a week and I am unsatisfied. It is incredibly slow compared to my rooted phone. I tried using fresh kitchen to root my phone but it says I have a custom room and fails. (I thought running the 2.1 RUU was like a factory update?)
Anyways, is there a way for my to root my phone again? I am stuck and not sure what to do.
Sorry for the wall of text.
so u found the fix for the 110 error but u cant see like the third topic here on how to root 2.1?
Damn, haha, Thanks for pointing that out.
I'm hungover at work, you got to cut me a little slack. My head is else where today.
I recently reflashed stock 886 from 893 leak after i read some threads about maybe getting the ota but for some reason zumo and lets golf are gone. Any ansewers? I tried to flash the ota anyway through stock recovery and i get the error message tmp/sideload/package.zip error. I know that having the leaked kernel could keep me from doing the ota but any ansewers would help. Thanks!
just flash the system file from the fxz and they will come back. strange that didnt come back before when you flashed.
Yeah thats what i thought. The only thing is that ive had trouble with the fxz. I cant ever get it to work properly. It never makes it past the first step. Ill keep on tryn and see. Released always leaves them out. Thanks for the info!
Guys, i'm running a G1 with the latest cyanogen mod but it's been eating at my battery too much and it's way too slow. So i wish to downgrade to donut (1.6). Can anyone help me? I haven't flashed an android phone in a long while and i guess i forgot.
I appreciate it
PS: will that lock the phone back up? Or will i still be able to use it normally with any carrier?
Posting reply because the topic is...well in the lack of better words, invisible, both in my stats and on the forum...(the heck?)
The phone will still be unlocked.
You need to flash a new ROM.
Try superD. It's a donut rom.

Download: http://files.benbuchacher.com/Android-MT3G-G1 Archive/SuperD/SuperD 1.11/NoRamhack/
You'll need to wipe and flash it from recovery
The best ROM for G1 is probably froyobylaszlo. Its fast.
You'll need the 2708+ radio and spl though. And thats advanced to install
Figured it'd be easier to unroot it...couldn't wait anymore since it's my only phone and i need it.
But i really appreciate giving me the correct link for SuperD. I've been searching and i didn't know which one of the 2 available links to download.
BTW, when i do decide to root it again, i guess i'll be using SuperD, but what steps would i have to take to root and flash the new rom. I am asking you because it's an older rom and i am new to this.

Stop at "Flashing CyanogenMod"
Put the SuperD zip and this zip on the SDCard
Flash the DRC83 zip first then SuperD
Reboot and Enjoy
Thanks a lot I appreciate it
And again it's me. Having more problems. Got a Samsung Galaxy Trend as an early birthday present yesterday and now i want to completely restore my g1 back to stock (again). This is where things got complicated. I used a tutorial on "Unlockr" which obviously doesn't work. Managed to unroot and return to 1.0, then i managed to get to 1.5 where i started receiving errors with every single update i tried. So i re-downloaded 1.0 (rc29), i go into the bootloader (the red-green-blue-white screen) it starts checking something then pops out a "not allow" error, which then sends me back to the rainbow screen where i get the serial0 error.
I've tried downloading dreaimg.nbh from multiple sources but i always get that error.
Here's some info for you guys:
Hboot-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
Radio-2.22.19.26I
Now i honestly have no idea what to do. Can anyone give a fellow android user some assistance?
EDIT: I somehow managed to get my hands on the right files and went all the way up to 1.6. But now i can't activate the phone because i don't have a data plan and i can't use adb to activate wifi. Why must this be so ridiculously hard?
What can i do to flash back to rc29? I need to do that so i can activate the phone and then go back up to 1.6.
here a guide how to do it

hey bro, I found this tutorial http://androidandme.com/2009/10/news/how-to-manually-install-the-official-t-mobile-android-1-6-on-your-g1/very effective on bringing your G1 back to stock. I've used this tutorial once before, so I thing this will help you too.
Good Luck :good:
Hi everyone
Thanks for everyone's support before. It gave some confidance.
It doesn't work though. It's starts updating and then reboot with the message "Update failed, try using Kies, or go to Samsung service centre".
I removed root it didn't help. I got CWD flashed. Could that be a problem.
Could I get rid if it just to be able to uodate?
Need some help here. Kies seems dodgy judging by the posts.
Thanks in advance.
You need stock recovery if you want to update the official way.
What do I do
Could you explain to me what to do please. And should I mess with Kies. Or it wouldn't work either?
Or may be I could just flash it with Odin? Do you know where I could get
the latest Honeycomb flashable file? Since I already have CWM. And everything from xda seems to work. I just thought mabe just ODIN that update if I could get it.
Stock recovery means that I would need to get rid of CWM. How could I do it please?
Surprisingly enough I managed to get back to stock recovery. The Guide in this forum is amazing. I was scared stiff since i never done it before. It went well but still the update doesn't work. No root. No CWM. Still stops and reboots.
Anyone any ideas please?
Exactly what are you trying to do? You want the latest stock rom? Yes, you can flash it with Odin, there's a guide for that also.
I think it worked. I flashed a stock recovery with Odin. And then updated with Kies. It went down rather well. I sleepless night and all that stress just to see that I liked HC 3.1 better. Especially the dock bar that I could swipe before. And now I have to hit a stupid mini triangle.
Anyway, learnt quite a lot. Used Odin for for the first time and CWM. Cool.
It crashed already twice. Could it be because of installing too mush stuff too quickly? I'm just too impatient to get it back on the road. Like over a 20 apps at the rate of 2 or 3 at a time. Or is it supposed to be able to take it and sth is wrong with the ROM?
Cheers
Nobody cares probably but I'd just like to thank everybody who replied to
my posts. Everything seems to work now. I think it's better. Ebook in the update rom reads French now. Which is handy. That's life, as far as the fact that I bought Moonreader goes. Google play did a wierd thing that I didn't ask for but It saved me about 5 hours. It just backed up, finaly that feature worked, 95% of my apps and then automaticly reinstalled them after a crash and a factory reset. So now I have to sort out the sleep debt.
Love this forum even more now.
Oh and the Guide is ****ing brilliant.
