Hi,
I am sorry if a simmilar thread is already available, but its just that i wanted to include my exact setup of recovery, etc so that the problem can be solved, as i am getting very anxious to fix this, as i cant afford a new g1.
Every time i turn on the phone, it hangs at the tmobile g1 splash screen. I am running android system recovery utility build jf v1.41 (not official android recovery)
I tried flashing the cyanogen mod v5.0.8 in the recovery, but it aborted installation and installed cyanogen mod 4, but when it rebooted, it was still stuck on the g1 screen like before.
i also have hard spl on the device and the radio version is 2.22.19.26I
when i hold the camera button and power button to power on the phone, a white screen with green skating androids appears and the top reads:
DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA11000)
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.26I
(this line is date followed by time)
HBOOT
<BACK> FastBoot Mode
Somebody please help, I would really appreciate it.
Thank You
Go to the rom bible and find Amon-Ra's recovery, than it will have instructions on how to flash a new recovery via fastboot(YOU NEED THE SDK INSTALLED). Remember to wipe before flashing and please post this in the Q&A section next time.
have you tried entering recovery mode? when at said splashscreen press green+menu+red at the same time and imideately after that press the home button

Hi guys,
I need your help, I am a noob in the rooting business.
I was trying to root my htc dream following this guide
from wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Rooting
After I did all the steps, my dream won't go past the rogers screen anymore. I am still able to enter the hboot mode (camera+power button) and recovery mode(Home+power button)
I used the Cyanogen 4.04 ROM and my htc was on Android 1.5 and SPL 1.33.0009 previously.
When I enter the hboot mode, this is what I see:
DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA21000)
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.26I
Can anyone help me how I should proceed from here?
Did I brick my phone? How can run the cyanogen ROM?
Thank you

Re-flash the ROM and it will work again or:
1. take out the SD card
2. download this file ,open the folder and paste the dreaming.NBH file to the root of your SD card(use your pc or another phone to past this on your SD card).
2. you should get a gray screen once the card in placed back into the phone
3. then press power to start update
4. once the update is complete press the track ball then the rainbow(bootloader) screen should come back up,
5. pull out the battery and there you go your phone should work again
Note: If it didn't updated turn of your phone and turn it on by pressing (& holding) Power+Camera button.
Please! someone help me! I installed CM 5.0.7 and than everytime i press the power button for a long time it takes me to this screen with 3 androids on a skateboard and it says!

Please help me..
Hi All,
i had rooted my G1(32B) long time back with new SPL and Recovery. I was running Froyo by lazzo lately. but yesterday suddenly it started behaving weird. I was not able to give any sort of input in touch screen or use the physical buttons(scroll, end button etc). So i switched off my mobile by pulling battery. Later once i added battery, it always goes to Fastboot/Hboot screen irrespective of button i press. Its not going to recovery screen also.
The screen display below details at top.

and details of commands and 3 slating Androids at bottom. Here also screen none of commands mentioned works like "Menu = power off, Send = reset". It only goes to HBoot mode and when pressed "back" button give the spl/recovery details.
I had installed ADB in my system but didnt tried anything until i get some suggestion from experts. So wanted to know whether i bricked my phone. ?
Can i recovery back my mobile with some instruction or flashing radio image etc. Please help. I badly need you guys suggestion.
What was the last thing you did before it goes like that?
Hi
i removed battery as i wanted to change the phone sim. after that i switched on.and it went to Rom's lockscreen. then it started working weird as mentioned above so i removed battery again
When booting up, try holding home+power key. See if it goes into Recovery mode.
hi,
i followed your suggestion and it is not going to Recovery screen at all and always goes back to Fastboot mode. I followed ezterry's suggestion
"If you find yourself stuck without recovery!!
Dream
1) Download: orange-1.58.73.2.nbh (MD5: aca4dee0c1ece7e9773f2ecbdfbba7c0) (mirror)
2) enter fastboot and run 'fastboot flash nbh orange-1.58.73.2.nbh'
3) wait for the entire nbh to flash
4) boot into the bootloader again (it will be an engineering SPL 1.42.2000)
5) You can now re-flash the radio/hboot/recovery via fastboot that you wish to have installed."
Everything went fine and then i re-flash the radio/hboot/recovery via fastboot as mentioned above.
But still i cannot get into recovery screen. i tried many times and only once i was able to see recovery screen but it didnt hold up for long time(i mean it went off after seconds).
So what should i do ?
Try it again, this time flash the latest radio/SPL. Also, reflash Amon RA using ADB.
Ok, recently I rooted a g1 version 1.6 ( Donut), I downloaded Rom Manager. I downloaded their recovery so I can boot up in recovery mode and do a factory reset. But I couldn't do to the fact that when I pressed the back + power bottom it didn't boot up in recovery mode, I tried also pressing the down volume + power didn't work neither, tried up volume + power didn't worked neither, all of the 3 tries fails. the back + power sends me to the bootloader mode. and the others don't work.
So tried to download a custom ROM, while that happened I forgot about it and decided to change the sim card to another carrier, I did not know if the download was finish or not. But when I changed my sim card and tried to turn it on the the phone started to loop in the G1 LOGO, i know its not brick, but some how I cant do a factory reset.
Because I was not able to start the g1 in recovery mode, I wasn't able to factory reset. So what is left to do? Can someone guide me, Please.

Thats all my G1 shows in the bootloader. Can you actually update the radio, or bootloader, to a more updated version, or to a old version so that way it might lose the root, or so that it can return to a state where u can access the recovery mode.
You said you can access bootloader. Then using fastboot push recovery. For best results erase the sd card before putting recovery file in sd root. In fastboot do an "erase system r-w" and then push recovery. Hopefully it will work.
If you dont know what fastboot is or how to use it, you should thoroughly search and study fastboot guides for G1 in XDA.

ok for g1 t's
Home+Power=Recovery
Back=Power=Fastboot/Bootloader
Camera+Power=Hboot/Bootloader
what happened exactly when you prssed Home+Power? did you get a yellow triagngle and this thing ! ?
if you did that means you have stock recovery, you need to hold 'alt' and press 'L' on the keyboard to access recovery options..
so try that and tell me if you get anything to happen.?

no, i did not receive that, i cant access recovery mode by pressing back+ power.
@ dhacker809 - Reading your OP, one thing that you should not have done (happens to me when I first started) was trying to use ROM Manager. It will lock you out of Recovery mode. Amon RA is the best recovery option from my experience.
If Camera+Power option works, I would suggest that you re-flashed nbh file and start from there.
BTW back+power will not give you recovery mode.
You Are The Best
