T-Mobile G1 almost DEAD or what to do ?

I was updating my G1 to Kingxkxlick ROM & it was just stuck at screen of X, I tried to re-update it via RECOVERY, & I don't know but it restarted when I click to HOME for update.
When it restarts, it showed G1 & X logo, stuck there for a while, but THEN I TOOK OUT THE BATTERY
& It's no more working, not charging, not turning on, BATTERY WAS 100% charged
Please help me out, I don't wanna lose my g1, i'm not even in US right now

If you get to the boot screen and you've past the G1 logo, your phone is fine. Its the ROM you're trying to flash.
Make sure before flashing any rom that you do a factory data wipe, dev wipe, and make sure you have 3 partitions, swap, ext2-3-4,and fat
once you have done this, make sure youre using kingklicks 6.1 first, then upgrade to the 7
Kings 7 rom is only minor changes to add to the base 6.1, if you're trying to flash the newest update alone, if you notice its only 6MB which is definatly NOT the correct size a ROM should be.
So download the older version 6+ then flash, then without rebooting, flash update version 7 over it, and then reboot.
Hope that helps!

To be more clear than the guy above me...
Assuming your talking about this King rom.

I've already told phone is not charging, not starting recovery or fastboot screen
I had Amon RA recovery, just had CyanogenMOD Latest one
Was changing it to Kingxkxlicks latest ROM & got it all done
Any hope for recovery OR what else Option I have ?
PS: Not in US

If its not turning on, then I'm pretty sure it's dead. Needs a new board all together, I had the same thing happen to me, pretty much the same exact way. It was taking way too long to boot (20+ mins) so I took out the battery and now won't turn on at all. If you find a way to fix it let me know so I can revive mine.

I contacted some local repairers, they just told that it need to get it's boot reset by putting some wires & stuff on board to make it work again.
It's costing me too much so I haven't done it by yet (almost 5,000 PKR)
If anyone here know the thing I told, do let me know, I can do it by myself (can take risk), but can't spend that much money lol

They trying to rip you off.. Nobody has got JTAG working on the g1 yet, they can't do anything by "putting some wires and stuff on board". If it won't charge and won't turn on, there's nothing you can do except replace the board.

what's the lowest price I have to pay for motherboard of G1, because it's not available in local market by now ?

You won't find the mainboard for sale anywhere, so your best bet is to search ebay for a g1 with a broken screen.. then you can swap in the board from that and keep the rest of the parts as spares:
http://cgi.ebay.com/T-Mobile-G1-Bro...Cell_Phones?hash=item2eabb4e988#ht_500wt_1182
edit: before you go swapping the board.. have you tried a different battery? it could be as simple as that.

Magic 32B keeps rebooting

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my Magic 32B and hope one of you guys could figure out where this all come from.
Since a couple of weeks my magic has become very unstable and I would say I have about 20 to 30 freezes or reboots a day. It suddenly started when I switched from a nightly froyo to another and since then regardless on the ROM I flash I always have the same behaviour (I'm currently on the CM6 RC1).
I tried the following:
- full wipe via AmonRa + format of SD (128 SWAP + 512 EXT + FAT) clean reinstall of a presumably stable rom --> failed keeps rebooting or freezing
- I did a fastboot erase system -w + flash of a clean ROM --> failed
The bizarre thing is it never crashes when the phone is USB plugged on my laptop, therefore I've never seen a logcat showing anything bad ...
Also I can't identify any pattern or scenario which would systematically frag my magic... Even when I install a fresh new ROM, it can work pretty well for as long as an hour but then start being screwed up.
I've spent quite some time on this forum desperately looking for someone experiencing the same troubles but so far unsuccessfully ...
Would you guys have any idea ?
cheers

Probably other people will say it, but wrong forum.
Also, what ROMs have you flashed after the nightly froyo? Nightly froyos are cautioned, which I'm sure you knew.

yep, I used a couple of FroYo SP French Connection nightlies and then switched to CM V6.0.0-RC1.
(sorry if it's the wrong forum, @admins, please feel free to move it to wherever make sense)

This may not be your problem, but I found personaly that as soon as I enabled swap, my phone became a bit unstable. It was not rebooting itself when I had compcache on. Then I turned that off and switched to swap and now my phone rebooted itself sometimes. For me compcache was noticeably faster but swap multitasks better. So I've kept swap in spite of reboots. I have also found that switching between them either way my phone becomes unstable and rebooted itself multiple times before becoming stable on compcache or at least not rebooting as much on swap.

well i had the same issue. nothing helped, i reinstalled the spl, radio, rom, recovery, everything.
the only thing that helped is :
REROOTING YOUR PHONE

I would expect a Donut based ROM to be fine. Which ROMs have you tried since the freezing/rebooting problem started?
The next time it reboots you should take a copy of /proc/last_kmsg and post it here. You can do so with:
Code:
adb shell cat /proc/last_kmsg > last_kmsg.log

Reboot cycle
I'm sorry if I'm in the wrong area, but I also have the same problem. I have a mytouch 3g (32B). I recently flashed it with "Froyo SPF Connection" and that made it reboot just about every 30 seconds. I restored it to the 1.6 Donut rom and it kept rebooting but repeated the process and now it seems fine. The problem is I don't want the 1.6 rom but that's all can have right now since everything else slows it down and freezes it. Please help me solve this problem. I'm opened to any useful recommendations and every help is appreciated.

Eclair ROMs are just as stable as donut ROMs and as fast as donut. Just don't use Froyo till it's stable. Use CM5.0.8 or any CM variant and you should be fine.

I'm having the same problem after flashing the new radio the phone will boot and as soon as its done loading the home screen it will reboot then load the home scree and turn off

Flashed French Connection ROM few days back and have had same problems as above ever sense.. Flash other ROM's and they constantly Reboot. cy 6.0 Working for me now, But only my Nandroid back up of it. Re flashed it fresh and it reboots...

why dont you reroot ur phones like i told you?

This freezing and rebooting problem is weird - it doesn't make sense a lot of the time.
I've developed a ROM based on AOSP 2.2 for the G1 and it also seemingly randomly freezes or reboots.
When it reboots it's usually the result of an ARM9 crash and so far I have tracked it down to a call to a proprietary library function which doesn't return to the correct return address. It seemingly returns to a random address and the consequences of doing so is random. Sometimes it causes a freeze or a reboot and other times it doesn't.
I'm starting to suspect something in the JNI code is causing the problem but it's difficult to track it down.

FroYo SP French Connection is overclocked to 614 by default. My Mytouch (32B) reboots and freezes constantly if i don't turn it down to 576. Try turning the overclock down in set cpu to 528 first then if its stable you can try turning it up a little.

Urgh, I hadn't considered clock speed as a potential problem.
What if some of our phones are unstable at the default Froyo maximum of 528 MHz?

I am (was) in the same situation (Magic 32B). It started with CM6 RC1 first and after it, my nandroid backups got weird too! I always wiped everything and rebooted by myself several times. I never played with overclocking, compcache or ext partition - but after trying other FROYO ROMs as well, even a clean install of CM5.0.8 final was unstable got fc's and rebooted...
So, after one year of trying nearly every ROM out there, i finally made a decision: i went back to my stock rooted 1.5 cupcake!! Yes, 1.5! I never tried this ROM before - even in my first days i immediately switched to sense...
And what should i say? I'm blown away by the speed and stability of this ROM! Unbelievable! ... sad day ... really sad ....
And my decision after that: i will wait for an official FROYO for Magic, which was at least officially announced...
sad, sad, sad...

Well, i think - like my approach - rerooting will not bug down the fault in FROYO ROMs. I hope it will be sorted out, but for me the daily flashing is over for now. I really appreciate the hard work of all the devs and i also donated to some, but at the end of the day i just want my phone and don't want to wait for going to homescreen or missing a call because of the lags...

Well, I think default for stock unrooted phones is like three hundred something you could try that but it would be really slow.

I totally agree. I know waiting for the official Froyo for the Magic may take years before it's finally released, but I'm tired of flashing and testing new roms every day without getting the results I want. As a result of this frustration, I will go back to Donut 1.6 for now and wait for the official update. Hopefully 5.1 won't be out before we finally get the update

Yes, I will find out the maximum Donut clock speed and test at that speed.

Unfortunately the phone still rebooted due to an ARM9 crash.

I've attached a small CM6 RC1 update as a test fix for the ARM9 crashing.
Anyone experiencing random freezing or reboots should give it a try by copying it to your SD card and boot to recovery to flash it.
If you install the test fix but still experience random reboots I'd appreciate if you could upload a copy of /proc/last_kmsg to http://android.pastebin.com and post the link to it in here. A logcat up to the point of the reboot would be very helpful too.

Keeps rebooting after Darky 8.1 update

Now just had a little problem. I updated to Darky's 8.1 no wipe version. It updated fine but the first time it booted, it froze. Now it keeps doing a boot cycle over and over again. I see the i9000m screen but I do not get to the S logo screen or in this case the transformer screen because it reboots. Can you help me plz? Thanks.

try a re flash of another ROM preferably a stock ROM then start all over again, similar thing happened to me earlier, i am quite new to all this but i dont know if its the kernel or lagfix i had what caused this...
i re flashed back to froyo and then installed darkys ROM then re installed my kernel last.. all is good (for now)

worked for me first time but when i went to sgs tools to upgrade your apps ie gallery, camera, it said no busybox installed but went ahead and done fine in v8.0 and i see that cwm changed from red to green too went to market for busybox to download it but when it goes to install phone just reboots all the time mmmm...

Easiest way out of cycling boot:
pull battery
place it in
bring phone in download mode (not recovery!)
prepare Odin with a stock ROM
connect the phone to your PC and give it a kick thru Odin
When done feel free to switch again to Darkys (8.0) with wipe (you will loose data) and afterwards upgrade to 8.1.

YES !!! i agree, it is a pain.. but we love our phones and we would do anything for them its always best to flash back to standard FW if you ever get a problem...

I myself experienced this. Whenever I installed a new software, it would just boot. I got fed up because darky's forums are also down and there is no discussion. flashed doc's rom. Now everything is fine.

...mh... but it's not caused by Darkys ROM. This cycling boot feature may appear at all ROM, at all lag fix actions and so on. It depends how proper you interact with phone- and ROM-features while configuring. A lil disturbance during your session (by you or battery issue or whatelse) or a not so well prepared basic from where you start and your unlimited-feature-wishlist-and-paint-it-golden-one-click-action is enough to interrupt the whole thing and run into trouble.
It was and is all the same - since DOS or C64. And it will be the same, even when iPhone is on level 12.x or Android will be able to beam you elsewhere thru the barcode scanner.
It's a game. Nothing more. And game means lot of fun - and in the beginning a certain thrill when your phone stuck first time and you are thinking: "... f*ck... bricked..."

yup same for me

Thanks guys for all the replies. Now I did try flashing a stock rom but with no results. Was still having the same thing happening to me. If you guys can give me the link to the files you used to solve this problem, that would be great. Also just for your information I have a Bell i9000m unlocked running on fido. And NO its not an sd card failure lol.
As for DarelSteilz85, I did make one of those JIG usb for myself. It easy, just get the micro usb and strip it bare to the point you can see the pins on the usb which usually are connected to the wires and get a resister to connect one pin to another. Now for which pins, I remember it was 4 and 5 that you had to connect through the resistor but double check as I am not sure. Also the resistor has to be a certain level which I forgot so double check that also. Good luck.

Boot loop after CM7 & Baseband 15

Hi Guys,
I had a reboot loop problem in my X8 after installing Viber from a Wifi connection and decided to mod it. I successfully unlocked the boot loader & rooted my Xperia X8. Flashed it with CM7 RC1 V4. I rebooted the phone to see the Cyanogen Mod screen with the skate board and it proceeded to ask me a question about the setup wizard or market option, I made a selection and the phone went dead. It rebooted and started hanging on the SE logo. I thought it was due to Baseband 15 and flashed it but no luck.
I have Clockwork Mod on it and can randomly enter it also. I would appreciate any help and pointers, is this an issue due to using the wifi and is the hardware at fault. Once the boot loop starts the battery drains pretty fast I can see the Cyanogen battery status icon and try to wait for it to charge completely
Many thanks & regards

* Did you factory reset it from CWM before installing the ROM? Boot loops are common when one doesn't, particularly if you're coming from another ROM (from what you say, I guess you're coming from stock 2.1)
* It seems that you flashed baseband 015 AFTER flashing the new ROM. AFAIK it should be done BEFORE flashing a new ROM, while still on stock 2.1. If that's the case, you'd have to go back to 2.1 using SEUS (or Flashtool; there are stock ROM images here on XDA), THEN flash baseband 015, THEN root, THEN flash CM7 again.
---
As a side note, you unlocked your bootloader but didn't install a new kernel, which is what one normally unlocks the bootloader for. Unlocking the bootloader isn't needed to flash a ROM as long as it works with the stock kernel (most don't, but yours should.)

Many thnks for the reply mate, what you said is right. I might have missed a few things. But I reflashed Baseband 15 yesterday before your reply to my post and now it seems to be booting into cyanogen mod happily but each time it takes only a few seconds and through a few setup screens before it reboots again.This is exactly what was happening even on the stock ROM before doing any Mod procedure and the battery gets drained too. Could this be a hardware fault.

if i understood well,there is no hardware problem, go to cwm, full wipe-factory reset,advanced>wipe dalvik, reinstall your rom(install custom zip) and it should work:fingers-crossed:

Thanks for the reply stamatis, basically its just shutting down because there is no battery left to power it, it seems. At times it reaches upto the setup wizard (shown when booting for the first time), the next time it could go up to adding a gmail account or language selection screen. I have even seen it load the home screen before it shuts off. This all started happening after downloading some apps from a wifi connection. I have done that before wiping and re installing but will try again. My presumption is that since it was happening on stock ROM and now on CM7 too then it's probably a hardware issue

ok i see now,your problem is battery drain,
is it that extream? i mean, you charge to full and when you open it up it shut down by low battery?
have you try to opening while charging?is it the same?
are you sure its charging?
that way too xtream to be software problem so its more likely that its hardware...

yes you got it right. I do charge it fully and when it boots the CM7 UI for a few seconds the battery goes down half or even less or nearly empty. I have tried opening it while charging and thats when the above happens, yes I can see the Cyanogen charging icon. So you think its a hardware issue and I should not pursue it further

yea, i guess your battery almost dead.....and i dont think its a good idea to by new battery, you better buy new phone,as the batteries are quite expensive if you think that the worth of the x8 right now would be 50 euros....

Try ebay bro

[Q] Sprint HTC One reboot issue

I got a Sprint HTC One last week, rooted it, s-offed it and flashed several ROMs on it.
My problem is that in every ROM I've tested, the phone reboots after a couple of minutes.
Here are the ROMs I've tried so far:
- CLEAN ROM SPR 2.5
- CM-10.1-20130714-NIGHTLY-m7spr
- MIUI_m7wls_signed_07042013
- Slim-m7spr-4.2.2.build.7-OFFICIAL
- Sprint_HTC_One_1.29.651.10_Stock_Deodexed
- Sprint_HTC_One_1.29.651.10_Stock_Odexed_05.17.13
- Stock_w_Goodies_One_1.06
- viperROM_One_v1.1.0
I'm using TWRP 2.5, advanced wiping: dalvik, cache, data, system before flashing the ROM.
Does anyone have sugestions?

Hi bro...

I guess that's a slightly different problem then mine.
My phone is S-OFF already and I've wiped and flashed almost every single ROM out there and the phone reboots (doesn't shutdown) every 2 minutes...
After I read some other similar issues, I'm guessing I'll have to use a RUU tool to fix the problem. The other problem is that I only have Mac and Linux...

I've read a post advising to copy the ROM file to the root of the phone's internal storage in order to do a proper flash.
Since I was always flashing the roms directly from an external usb thumb drive, I thougt it was a good idea.
I copied Android Revolution 2.5 to the phone's memory, wiped everything and flashed it. Installation whas OK so I rebooted. When selecting the wi-fi network on the initial setup I received a message saying "avoiding poor signal network" even thoug my router was about 10ft from me. After finishing the initial setup I rebooted the phone and then it got stuck hard.
Even when pressing the power button for over 20 second it didn't shut down. Now I'm waiting for the battery to die so I can see what happens on the next boot.
Again, if someone can help me on this situation, I'll appreciate it...

press the buttons while holding phone under a bright light and it will reboot, if that rom was a 4.2.2 rom from the intl. forum you're going to have to ruu it.

I've only used Sprint ROMs but still got those freaking reboots. Only by using RUU (provided by viperboy) I managed to solve the reboot issue.
Now I'm waiting for a software SIM Unlock solution, since I'm in Brazil an cannot unlock it OTA.
I'll post an update here as soon as I have a solution...
