Did you happen to flash an spl beforehand lol? If not try wiping since you didn't say you did that.

which spl is the best to use?

I don't know why you would ask seeing as you have experience with modding already.
HardSPL if you don't want hero
Danger SPL if you want hero.

well didnt know what the difference was but now i know its just with all these bricked g1s by the danger SPL but i guess i'll try my luck 1 more time
as long as you have the new radio it won't brick, if you're using cyanogens recovery remember to physically press alt-s, home+back, don't use the trackball. That goes for radio and spl, not roms.

i need it too
i was gonna switch to cyans rom from haykuros when the next stable version came out
The recovery may be effected by the C&D because of nandroid. Cyanogen removed everything until the details are provided by google.
Right then,
Already searched on this one and not yet seen a solution to my problem. I own a T-mobile G1 and my phone crashes after it has booted up, or will not boot up properly: either the T-mobile G1 screen stays on for 5-6 seconds then I get a black screen, or it boots up then freezes with a black screen, or it won't switch on at all.
I currently have:
T-Mobile G1 with Root
2.22.19.26I radio installed
1.33.2005 "Death" SPL installed
Amon_RA's RA-v1.2.3 recovery installed
MghtyMax "What a feeling" 1.9.1 Hero ROM installed
fat32, ext3 and linux-swap on class 6 8Gb sdcard
I can get to recovery (sometimes.....it doesn't always get that far) and fastboot, so hopefully it's not bricked. I have already tried wiping (ALT+W) and formatting the ext2 (from the option in RA's recovery menu and also via console); removing all the partitions and starting afresh recreating them (after removing them of course), and as I can get to recovery (sometimes) I have tried flashing a different ROM (SENSEhero 1.3.3 unthemed) but still get the same issue.
I have flashed quite a few ROMs recently and not had any issues, so any help on this one would be most appreciated!

Check your SD Card. My buddy had the same "black screen" problem and I discovered his SD card was slightly popped out. I clicked it back in and boom. problem solved. For him at least!

Seems like it is a problem with the sd card. Removed it and plugged it into my pc via a card reader and it couldn't recognise the card. Amazon here we come! Thanks for the help!

Okay,
It is still doing it and I'm not sure if it is the sdcard. Tried a different card I have at home and I still have the same problem.
I'm also getting extra coloured pixels appear on the T-Mobile G1 screen.
I can still get to bootloader and recovery (sometimes.....).
How do I pull a logcat?
MrZ
adb logcat
you can also run ddms.bat and get the log from there

well trying to solve the problem by trying another sdcard is not a fix... since some roms do rely on the ext contents for things to work properly. what i suggest is having the 3nd card completely wiped and partitioned correctly..then move a rom onto the card and flash like u normally would.
Thanks for the info.
That was one of the first things I tried. I managed on Tuesday to install AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.2_DRC92_rooted_base_v2.zip, and it worked for a short period of time, but it now crashes or doesn't boot up.
Getting worried now.......

Something may be wrong with the phone itself
Try flashing the RC29 and seeing if the problem persists. if it does, then its probably a hardware problem. You can talk to tmobile or HTC about it and see what they say

Thanks for that. I assume if they ask me to return it to them to reflash the original bootloader and recovery screens so that they cannot tell I've been "playing" with my phone...
Haha well once you flash the RC29 you wont have to because it will all be stock. If Tmo replaces phones for missing text messages, which is for sure a software problem (yes ive seen them do this), then they definitely will for this issue.

If I flash RC29 (or RC7 for me) will this brick the phone as I currently have Death SPL. I'm sure I've read that somewhere on here?
Unrooted.......
I've now reverted back to RC7 (as I'm in the UK) and all seems okay....for now.
I will run it like this for a day to see if it still crashes or does anything funny. If it doesn't, I will re-root and start again!
Thanks for the help with this. I will update if it continues to crash.
Alright lets hope this fixed it lol
also it may be a little late but you should be fine flashing the RC7 as it replaces the SPL and radio
EVT Board.........

Now this is interesting, RC7 was fine. Re-rooted the phone, fine. Flashed AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.2_DRC92_rooted_base_v2.zip ROM, fine. Flashed Amon_RA's v1.2.3.img recovery, fine. This is where it gets fun, partitioned my card within the recovery to FAT32, ext2 and linux-swap, then rebooted into recovery. The phone crashed. So, I thought there must be an issue with the sdcard. Put in the stock 2Gb card with the RC7 DREAIMG.nbh file on and pressed camera+power to go back to RC7. It came up with an red code 00058002, then went back to the bootloader screen. It stated at the top that it was an EVT board. Searched all of the Dream Q&A section for EVT and absolutely nothing. Tried going into bootloader again and that screen started to warp and the graphics and pixels started to jumble up.
Any ideas?
wow.....it changed board types on you?
did you manage to flash cyan at all before that happened?
you should flash cyan and boot on it before flashing amonra's recovery.
you can then flash the recovery then partition the card and wipe just to be safe

I flashed the AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.2_DRC92_rooted_base_v2 ROM and booted it up fully. Then using the Terminal Emulator within Dev Tools I flashed Amon_RA's recovery. All went well until I partitioned the sdcard. It won't boot up at all into the home screen or recovery, just bootloader, although it did this before when it first started crashing. I'm gonna leave it tonight and try again tomorrow.
Do you know anyone else on here who has any idea on this one? Seems like I'm the first!
This is probably an issue with the recovery itself...though ive never read about anything like your having.
ill bump this thread and see if anyone can help...maybe david can (ill tell him to get on here)
why dont you give a differant recovery image and dont try to partition just try with a fat32 sdcard on a cyan rom or something see what happens with that
Micro Hero Rom Installed
Hi i am looking for a Hero Rom for Hard SPL if any. i know that there is a micro Hero rom for any SPL...but after i install the micro hero rom i get lot of forecloses..and a blank homescreen with a notification bar ....
I use Amon RA recovery for Dream and i have switchrom so i have backups...
I have posted for help in the Micro Hero Rom and i talked to the Author of the Rom but so far no luck....
This is the ROM Post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561179
these are the instructions from the Author
"How to install:
1, Copy update file to sdcard
1b, If using a recovery older than Cyanogen 1.4, rename to update.zip
2, flash from recovery and if first time with this build, alt+w to wipe
3, in adb, type adb shell mount /system/sd; rm -r /system/sd/*
4, Reboot"
i have setup adb but when i type "mount /system/sd; rm -r /system/sd/*"
it says that "cannot remove /system/sd/* " or something...
Is there any other way to do it like from recovery??
I really liked the Rom
this is my SPL details
Drea100 PVT 32B
HSPL10.95.3000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.261
Current rom: Cyanogenmod 4.2.9.1
Partition: 512 mb EXT 3 94 mb swap rest FAT
I am sorry if my post is stupid and yea i did search a lot
That's it. The microhero, MAYBE Eugene's Espresso because I think he mentioned not having it made specifically for Haykuro spl. I would check it out

i can use APNDroid to block 3g right....and other apps (cyanogenmod apps) should work right...
One last question....it seems kinda laggy little bit...is there any way to speed up...like increasing the swap size...i already have 96 mb...

No, most of cyans apps are made for 1.6, this is 2.0 (2.1?). Some may work, but bluetooth won't, spare parts won't, contact and phone won't, etc...
And apndroid should should work.

It's laggy because it was made for the stock spl, if you had the danger spl it would be faster. And Hero isn't exactly the kind of rom you should be running if you want speed
yea...i didnt flash danger spl because some people said that it might brick my phone...so i didnt wanna take the risk...and if i have danger spl...i cannot run cyanogenmod...

You have a possbility of bricking yes. And that is wrong, spl allows you to have more space for apps and such. It doesn't limit your ability to flash roms, flashed cyan yesterday actually.

so the cyanogenmod latest will also work with Danger SPL? wow i didnt know that...i might take the risk of changing to Danger SPL(haykuro)....
Last one to add...its faster now..i ran a fix_permission/fix apps uid mismatches...and its faster...
Hey all, flashed a variety of ROMs and SPLs during the 12 month lifespan of my G1 with no problems.
This afternoon I updated to the Danger SPL from Haykuros sapphire googlecode page, and I updated to Amon_RA's recovery image. Both home+camera and home+back boot to where I would expect..
But the phone itself won't boot. Hangs on the G1 screen.
Any ideas all?
Thanks
Ok so I've tried booting without my SD card, and it still hangs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618577
I've also swapped back to the old Hard SPL which looks like so:
DREA110 PVT 32B
HSPL10.95.3000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.26I
The ROM im using is "TheOfficial DONUT TMO US/EU, ADP & AOSP" :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538456
I'm starting to think that the ext partition on my SD card (cheap transcend which came with the G1) is foowked.
Whenever I run any kind of nandroid stuff, it fails.
Tried a variety of SPL/recovery combinations (ie, the ones I had this morning) and no love. Even a wipe or three makes no difference.
Perhaps I should just reconfigure the SD card and update to manup's build.
Have you tried reformatting the card and not partation the card after you flash a rom?
LFC
So I've updated to Danger SPL, wiped and partitioned using AmonRA's recovery.
And it worked!
