Before Danger You must need to Flash your RADIO first and then reboot and try flashing Danger.

It is obviously smarter than you.
DO NOT FLASH DEATHSPL!!!! There is NO BENEFIT to it.
Use 1.33.2003. Be safe -- don't brick yourself.
If you want deathspl's partition mapping, use this instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717874
** NO NEED TO RISK A BRICK!!!

G1 screen stuck! again!

hello, I made the following steps: (I try to flash Jachero 2.3.5)
1) Install RC29
2) Install recovery image 1.3.1
3) Flash latest radio: ota-radio 2.22.19.2.6I
4) Flash latest spl: 1.33.2005
... and when I try to reboot, the phone stay stuck in the G1 screen.
What I'm doing wrong ?
Do you have root? If you do which im hoping is true try reformating your sd card cuz sometimes whenyou flash different roms some of the old stuff stays even after reflashing
hope that helps
you might have a brick, after flashing the SPL you are supposed to have another sd card with another ROM(or the same ROM) on it to reflash, if not you can get a brick
Sounds like you just need to reload your rom on. Once you flash the spl you need to reflash your rom otherwise you will be stuck at the g1 screen due to the fact you don't have a rom loaded on your phone because the spl update overwrites your rom.
It's Normal, i went through the same thing. After installing the SPL you have to re flash your ROM. im no expert but what i did was:
Note: i added the cyanogen recovery image 1.3.1 and also i have ROOT,
I had Cyanogen 3.6 rom so i flashed the radio then spl. and got the g1 screen.
then i flashed 3.6 rom on again. (turn on phone with power+home, alt+w to wipe, alt+s to install)
After it loaded the cyanogen 3.6 so i checked the settings to make sure i had the right spl and radio. and then i just flashed the JACHero rom. just like i did with the Cyanogen rom.
Probably dont have to reflash the cyanogen rom i was just being careful.
Just mount your sdcard in recovery. Boot into recovery and press alt+x. Now type:
echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file
Remove the update.zip,and place your ROM of choice on the sdcard. Rename it to update.zip. In recovery console type "reboot recovery". Now wipe and flash away =]

problems with kingxkxrom

i just rooted my g1 with the amon ra recovery img and i installed kingklicks new 2.2 rom and wen i reboot the pone is stuck at the tmobile screen...ne help
do you have the proper radio and spl? if not, flash the radio first so you don't turn your phone into a paper weight.

Did you wipe before flashing? How is your sdcard partitioned?

ooops Lost Root

I was running cy's 4.2.4, but I was having an issue with rotate.
I realized that the base Rom i was using was a sapphire rom (or at least that is what i was led to believe) I decided to go to cy's wiki and download the correct base image... signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip
I flashed this image and then when I tried to go back to recovery *poof* no recovery. (I was using the RA recovery) I downloaded telnet and tried it, no telnet.
I was going to reflash the RC29, but I was running the "Danger" SPL.
sooooooooo. Will I brick if I go back and install RC29?
Well. for anyone in the future, I can tell you that reflashing back to RC29 will NOT brick you when coming from Danger SPL.
If you have Danger SPL you could just flash back AMON Recovery from Fastboot, no need to root again.
the recovery gets replaced on reboot due the HTC image. You have to edit some scripts which a lot of people find harder than rerooting

[Q] Clockworkmod Issue

Hi there. I just got my G1 as a backup phone, and I am having issues with flashing CWM. When I flash it, I choose "HTC Dream", and it flashes successfully. However, when I try to boot into CWM, it will just hang at the G1 splashscreen. I have noticed Amon_RA recovery works fine, but the ROM I want to use (COS-DS) is recommended to be flashed with CWM. I have tried formatting the SD card and reflashing already (many times). I also tried the experimental versions of CWM but they will not flash at all. If it helps, my buddy installed SuperD (a donut ROM) on this G1 before he gave it to me.
My G1 is a 32B PVT device, with the Engineering S-OFF, HBOOT 1.33.2005 (DREA10000), Radio 2.22.23.02, and CPLD-4.

From my experience with ROM Manager/ClockworkMod. The recovery do not work well. I recommended that you stay away from it.
Amon RA works fine without CWM.
I had the same problem when I first started flashing ROM. My big mistake was to start using it. Took me about a few months to realize that it does not work well and it will hang at the G1 screen.
Now I see that they still have not fix this problem. LOL!

I agree!! 100% CWM doesnt work as well as RA and personally that COS-DS rom isn't that great... froyobylazslo is way better!!! but if you really want cwm that just downlaod "rom manager" from the market and apply/flash cwm through there... very simple

If you already installed Amon RA, then I would recommend uninstalling CWM. Then you should be able to get into the Recovery Mode.
If you have not, I suggested that you do. Then uninstall the CWM.
It is not that hard to boot into Amon RA recovery and do what you need to do. I found out that it is easier than trying to use ROM Manager/CWM.
Also, you might want to try different ROM (IE: froyobylazslo, gengerbread yoshi, or even SuperAosp) if you are so incline to use CWM.
