Not trying to be dumb but i been using JF 1.5 for like 6 month (completely forgot about xda and android stuff for about 4 month since i busy with school).
So now i got JF 1.5 and i want the new Cyanogen V 4.2.3.1 since i did read alot and seem like the best one for now.
And so i did try to install......for about 4 HOURS.
I tried :
- JF 1.5 -> Cyanogen V 4.2.3.1 = Stuck at the boot screen
- JF 1.5 -> cm-recovery-1.4.img -> signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip -> Cyanogen V 4.2.3.1 = After boot screen (when it suppose to come on the welcome screen) it just turn blank...the screen is one but completely blank.....
- I WIPE again -> HTC ADP 1.6 DRC83 -> Cyanogen V 4.2.3.1 = Samething, blank page.
So what did i do wrong? I did do the install of the recovery Img 1.4 and the ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip.
I did wipe everytime i install something.
Sorry for the bothering and noob asking for help but i do need help....i tried my best and sitted here for 4 hours already
And talking about those Guide on WIKI, i tried to follow all of them and still.......only thing i didnt try is reflash, unroot, root again and do the install of new ROM
Is your SD card partitioned correctly?
You need:
FAT32
EXT 2/3/4
Linux-swap
Do you have those three partitions?
If so, did you wipe your EXT partition?

Omg, i only have 1 partition
It Fat32 i believe and i dont know how to make the other
i have the Class 6 8GB though, what shud i do?
Quick update.
I just follow the Stock to Cyanogen Post to upgrade.
I reflash the whole phone, root then Cyanogen again with format 3 Partition of Fat32 (7000MB), ext2 (700MB) and Linux-swap (150MB) and it still doesnt work, stuck at boot screen this time.....i really really dont know what to do now, i tried everything
alright buddy, you don't need to have any ext or linux swap partitions to run cyanogenmod
just make sure you have his recovery image, 1.4, or amon ra's recovery flashed on your phone
now you might as well just flash the haykuro "death/danger" spl to repartition your phone's internal memory. flash the radio before the spl
now go into recovery and wipe data/cache,
follow cyanogen's directions on how to upgrade
flash the adp 1.6 htc recovery image file from the htc site, DO NOT REBOOT
immediately flash the latest cyanogenmod update on top of that, reboot,
it'll give you some stuff about writing the radio, just let it do it's thing
now you're done, boot up
and give it some time.
first boot takes a little bit more
enter your credentials into your phone, let it sync
then reboot again, it lets everything soup together

I just did the exactly same thing u said and it get past the Boot G1 Screen, then pas the Cyanogen Screen then it get stuck at a blank screen again, what wrong with that?
Since you're able to get to the "Cyanogen" screen -- do you have adb installed on your computer? A logcat of what's going on would be useful.
Alternatively; try flashing the "illegal" version of the newest Cyanogen ROM -- the "single flash" update. However, do it a little differently than you'd otherwise expect.
With the old JF 1.5, install Cyanogen Updater from the Market. Download any update -- doesn't matter what; you won't be flashing it.
Download the single-flash version of Cyanogen's actual ROM from the developer forum; and then dump it into the same folder that the CM Updater app dumped to. From within the contextual menu of the CM Updater app, choose "existing update" -- and then flash the single-update version.
//SOMETIMES//, flashing a ROM via the CM Updater will produce different results than flashing it "manually". I have no explanation for why this is, but I /have/ seen it happen.
Hi there,
I too am running JFV1.51 and wish to change to Cyanogen 4.2.15.1.
I have the iamage from HTC but nothing changes when I flash it and attempt to immediately flash Cyanogen over it?
Did you have any luck in resolving this issue/
Many thanks!
You guys that are having issues need to use ddms or adb shell logcat to see whats going on.
Going from Cupcake to Donut is going to change a lot in your phone and will take several minutes to complete. Most of which is in Framework. That Android boot animation that pops up is in there so thus it may seem like it's stuck at the G1 logo. Also you should consider flashing your phone to the newest radio (2.22.19.26I or 2.22.23.02).
ok this is what you really do lol no if ands or butts to this method.

E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
Hi,
Firstly, many thanks!
However, after following this comprehensive and generally straight forward guide I still can't flash the new CM!
I followed all the steps exactly, downgrading to RC7 (I'm in the UK) & re-rooting the phone.
When I reach the stage of flashing Android 1.6 Base Image, the CM ROM & the radio it states:
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
and aborts!!!
I also do not have the option of alt+a only alt+s which is apply sdcard:update.zip
Where am I going wrong? And what should I do?
Thanks,
Joe

If you don't have ALT+A available, you have a recovery loaded other than what the guide says/thinks you should have. Are you using the recovery it suggests? Be it Amon Ra, Clockwork, etc.
Hi,
I was initially running Jesus Freak cupcake 1.5. Now the phone is currently at RC7 and rooted using telnet after starting the whole process again.
I am currently following the guide on the cyanogenmod wiki. I am using the recovery image suggested: CM recovery 1.4 img.
However, when I get to the stage for Flash Android1.6 & CyanogenMod latest I get stuck and states E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip.
All other guides seem to be specific to the US, for example androidhustler. I don't where to go next!
Please help!

Easiest solution would be to buy a Micro SDHC card reader typically one that looks like a USB stick. It saves you all the hassle of fast boot and all that junk. My MicroSd card reader has saved me a lot of time when I had to reformat my partions.
U could start 4rm scratch but this time use amon_ra's recovery it works great..plus the same thing happened to me the 1st time i ever rooted (about a year ago) so ur cool. As 4 the 1.6 image use the offcial rom then flash wat u want jus my 2 cents.
ya ik wat u are sayin but see i don't know how to install the base image from the sd card btw i have a sdhc card and the reader

wipe first, then flash the 1.6 image just like you flashed the cyanogen update. after it restarts, hold down home to get back to recovery and flash your cm update. done
Thanks lets see if it works

This should be a pretty simple fix.
First: Find a Cyanogen 4.0.4 .zip or something that came out about the same time.
Second: Wipe
Third: Flash that image
Forth: Ensure it boots
Fifth: Flash the 1.6 image
Sixth: Go to Cyanogen's or Wes Garner's latest build
Trying a .zip that doesn't require that should fix your problem.

Step 2: Power down device, Power up while holding down the "Home" key, and select "Wipe" or "Factory Reset" which ever is listed in your Recovery Boot.
Step 5: Download THIS IMAGE and then in Recovery Mode flash this .zip
Step 6: Happens w/o a reboot. After flashing Step 5 directly flash @cyanogen's or @wesgarner's ROM
*I HIGHLY RECOMMEND @wesgarner's ROM HERE as it has been faster and much more stable for me than @cyanogen's ROM's lately*
Alright.
Title basically explains it all. I'm not an expert at messing around with my phone, but I'm not a novice either.
I do everything through trial and error. My phone has the correct Radio and SPL. Yes, I flashed the Radio before the SPL. The phone isn't bricked because it will go into recovery mode. But apart from that, it's all that it will do.
I was running RA's V1.5.1 recovery. Now it's at JFV1.43.
I think my mistake was trying to update from ADP1 straight into Cyanogens 4.2.7.1.
I had a ADP1 phone and tried to update to Cyanogens 4.2.7.1, and everything just went downhill from there. I never managed to accomplish my set goal, which was to flash and run Cyanogens 4.2.7.1.
Then when that didn't work. I tried downgrading to RC29 and just re-rooting my phone. By this time I was running RA's recovery V1.5.1. That went as planned until I flashed the latest radio and spl and wanted to upgrade to the modified version of RC30. I flashed the RC30 ROM. At this time, it wouldn't get past the blinking Android screen with the bot. I thought it kept on getting stuck there because it required the hard spl. Whether the latest spl and the hard spl are the same thing, I don't know. I flashed the hard spl. That's where my stupidest mistake probably happened. That's when my phone decided it didn't want to go past the G1 screen when rebooting/booting.
Is there anything I can do in order to fix this? And can someone explain to me a proper method of flashing Cyanogens 4.2.7.1 ROM? Is there anyway I can connect with my phone through adb on JFV1.43 recovery and just flash RA's V1.5.1 recovery through there and push a new ROM?
Frustration builds. Lol.
What I want to have on my phone is RA's V1.5.1 recovery with Cyanogen's 4.2.7.1 with the Eclair theme.
Many thanks in advance to whomever decides to grant me some much needed help.
OK, as long as you can still access your Recovery menu then you're not bricked.. so smile lol.
Rememeber, before you install the Cyanogenmod 4.2.7.1 ROM you need to install the HTC 1.6 Dev Rom first.
HTC took it off their website, i have it uploaded on my site...
do this: ( This is for HTC Dream (G1) )
CLEAR YOUR EXT PARTITION or REPARTITION YOUR CARD to get rid of any Incompatible files.
Download CM 4.2.7.1 -> http://www.myhangoutonline.com/downloads/?did=17
Download HTC Dream Image 1.6 -> http://www.myhangoutonline.com/downloads/?did=6
Place them both on the root of your SDCard.
Reboot your phone into recovery mode...
1. WIPE
2. Install HTC Dream Image
3. Hit Reboot when it's done (and keep an eye on the phone!)
4. you will see the little picture with an arrow (radio installation), WHEN YOU SEE THE PHONE REBOOT HOLD THE HOME KEY. It should reboot right back into recovery.
5. Now install the CM ROM
6. Reboot and you're done...
Hope that helps!

I'll try that and see how it goes. One question though, do I rename them to "update.zip" like always, or no? I'm gonna get an sd card reader to follow through with the procedure you gave me.
Thanks a lot.
If you are still showing recovery JF1.43, update your recovery first to either AR 1.5.1 or CM1.4. Once that is done, you won't need to rename anything, just select the update any zip option from recovery.
Dont reboot in between the htc image & cyanogen rom..It even says that on his site..This is what to do..
1. wipe
2. update from and zip the pick the htc image
3.update any zip and pick the cyanogen rom
4.Now reboot
5.should go to recovery and reboot one more time
6.Bam your done and no one got hurt either

The links posted aren't working for some reason. I tried going to the website to look them up and no go. If I can just get a proper link to download the HTC 1.6 Dev Rom I should be good to go.
I finally got the things I wanted to run.
Many thanks to the people that helped.
Alright guys, I'm finally getting with the times and changing ROMs. The current state of my phone is this:
Model number: HTC Magic
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband version: 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I
Kernel version: [email protected] )
Build number: kila-user 1.1 PLAT-RC33 126986 ota-rel-keys, release-keys
Now, I have the G1 and I modded it to this shortly after I got it. I'm looking to go to a fast and advanced firmware, but I will need help doing this. I've been out of the loop for a long time (not that I was really ever in it,) so I would like help on how to go back to the stock firmware first and then go to the new firmware. If I can go to the new ROM without going back, that would be better.
I would really appreciate help on how to do this. Also, would you suggest which ROM I should go to? I appreciate it a lot guys, thanks.
If you need anymore information from me, just ask away.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod
thats the best guide to follow for rooting the G1
after that i would try cyanogen..
but if your going for speed and still simple
i would go with dwang rom(super clean and fast)
or go with SUPER D rom(dwangs rom with cyanogen kernals)
Sorry for double posting stupid computer started to lag
Well I think my phone is already rooted, isn't it? I have the terminal application on my phone from when I rooted it a long time ago.
Oo well then lol if you have root access you can grab a Recovery img
i suggest Amon Ra RC 1.5.2 flash that
and chose what rom you would like to use..dwang seems to be the most stable at the moment..
so you can get the 1.6 adp-ota then the rom you wanna go with
can wipe the flash 1.6adp after it finishes flash your rom
(cyanogen requies to flash the 1.6dap-ota then flash his rom over it..
I just checked out a video for the dwang ROM and it looks sick. Now, are you positive that I can just grab a recovery image and then do what you said to flash over to that ROM? Also, I'll admit that I'm not the greatest at modding the G1. Would you be able to give me a little more in-depth answer? I'm nervous about bricking it, so I would like a little help if possible . Also, do I need to update the radio or any of that stuff again?
dwang roms is SICK and im loving it few features are missing but can add after
Well are you doing the mytouch(magic) or G1(dream)
im not sure the abouts of mytouch(magice)
but for dream im positive it be ok as most part as i did it already on a few phones with no problems
why i directed you to the cyanogen wiki guide for best instructions if followed
Here is what i did for my g1
I used the Dream.nbh then went to bootloader installed
then gain root user (telnet) flashed Amon-Ra Rc 1.5.2 after i got the 1.6adp-ota and cyanogens(first rom i used) you can grab dwangs rom if you want to go there
put them on the root of sdcard then turned off phone held the home button then turn on phone waited to Recovery image to come on
i did this
1.Wiped Wipedata/factory reset
2. flashed from anyzip flashed the 1.6 ado-ota(it will say reboot but dont)
3.flashed Cyanogens Rom
4.rebooted
5.then take me back to Amon-ra RC and rebooted again
and waited for the rom to start up and i was on latest Cyanogen rom
this is the way i went.. and works good
-edit sorry forgot to mention make sure sdcard is formatted to fat32
I'm using the G1. Can I just flash directly to dwangs ROM now in my current state, or do I have to get Dream.nbh and install it. Then wipe it and do the rest of that stuff?
Hmm thats a good question..
if you have root access already should just be able to flash to dwangs rom..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567023 can get it there...
For me out of habit i did this
Went to recovery then wipe
then flashed 1.6 adp ota
then flashed dwangs then rebooted! and i was happliy running a fast rom!
and the mod of dwangs SUPER D dwangs rom is a bit faster
When you get to dwangs rom there a few things you might want to flash after your all setup
1.Mod dialer/contact.aok 1.92
2. Phone.apk
Forgot to mention when you flash the 1.6adp-ota in recovery your also updating the radio image an that fun stuff when you reboot the first time after you did all the flashing.. it will take a sec as its writing the radio image.. another reason i keep saying flash 1.6adp
and i kno your fear about bricking the g1 i was jus as worried bout it much as you are...
if feel uneasy about it.. i would follow the wiki instructions from there instead of cyanogen jus use dwangs
Okay, that's awesome. Now, I'm going to do this exactly:
1. Wipe my phone.
2. Rename the ROM file to update.zip.
3. Hold home and power.
4. Update.
Is that correct? I don't need a new SPL, radio, ext of memory card, or anything? Ha.
Sorry for the questions man. I appreciate all the help.
No problem glad to help much as i can..
i would flash Amron-Ra 1.5.2(reason you can partation your sdcard from there!)
also with this recovery image you dont have to rename zips to "update" have option to flash from any zip file
I think dwangs and cyanogen needs new radio (1.6adp-ota)
So i would flash the 1.6 ota to get new radio
then flash dwang
on wiki you can skip the dream.nph part and go to the part where to flash the roms jus replace cyanogens with dwangs
I've got the recovery flashed on here. Now I'm going to find the radio update. Thanks for everything bro. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

alright cool Hmm
here is the signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/?1gqtzgzmdw4
edit-stupid pc didnt copy and paste right
thats the right link now
Here ya go these the steps.. replace cyanogen with dwangs.. and should be all GOOD!
Code:
# Turn your phone off.
# Hold the Home button and "End" (power) button to boot to Recovery mode.
# If you wish to have an option to return to your factory settings, select nandroid backup now. If not, continue.
# Press Alt-W (or select "wipe data/factory reset")Press home to confirm
# Press Alt-A (or select "apply any zip from sd")
* signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip
# Press home to confirm and let installation complete --Note that no "I have finished my job" message will appear after it finishes. Attempt to move the trackball once you see "Formatting CACHE:;" if you can move the trackball, it has completed the installation.
# STOP - DO NOT REBOOT YOUR PHONE
# Once again, press Alt-A (or select "apply any zip from sd")
* Select update-cm-4.2.x-signed.zip
# Press home to confirm and let installation complete --Note that no "I have finished my job" message will appear after it finishes. Attempt to move the trackball once you see "Formatting CACHE:;" if you can move the trackball, it has completed the installation.
# When this is complete, reboot your phone by pressing Home & Back.
# Wait. Your phone will say writing radio image and then reboot. This will take a couple of minutes. Be patient!
# If the phone enters Recovery mode after rebooting, press Home & Back again to reboot it once more. You should see the blue CyanogenMod Android logo this time
Okay, my computer is being odd. I was going to put the ROM on the phone to update and before I let it finish moving the file completely to my phone, I quit out of USB mode. I didn't know this because I was excited to update. Well I went to update and then it froze so I restarted the phone by pulling out the battery. Now when I try to take the file out of my phone to put it back in again completely, the folder says it isn't responding. What can I do?
if you got a usb adapter use that.. as somtimes using usb via phone can be jumpy .. and if usb adpter dont work may have to reformt sd again(fat32)
You're full of answers bro. Thanks a bunch. I just had to reformat it. I should be running my new ROM shortly .
You said you suggest I update two files. Why do you suggest that? Are they important?
Problem solved.
Try to do a wipe and if you have the
signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip flash it again
then try to flash dwangs Rom
If not may have to start completely fresh..but let me double check on that problem..
edit-
Lol ok thats good what you do?
I wiped and entered some stuff in the console. Not sure which one helped, but I'm good now. Ha.
Thanks a bunch for your help bro.
Your welcome glad to be of help as much as i can...
And hope your running dwangs Rom...
and if want to get a lil faster speed look for SUPER D[ dwangs rom with cyanogen kernal..
Dear XDA devs and readers,
After rooting my G1 with the RC8 rom and the hardSPL + latest Radio 2.26I
my phone wont go past the G1 startup screen after flashing higher version of cyanogen 4.04. happily ive done a nandroid backup with the standard ROOTED ROM.
i redone the procedure with set factory default dreamNBH.img and the wipe functions.
it have worked before with cyanogen 4.2! after installing TMO custom the problems begun.
Edit: things i tried:
reset to default wit the DREAMNBH
Wipe/factory
reflash different versions
changed SDCARD (htc gold)

It sounds like you need to install HTC's 1.6 recovery image (not on HTC's website but it's floating somewhere on XDA) before installing any of the Cyan's roms (due to C&D notice from Google).
So, you need to
Factory reset
Re-format and re-partition SD
Flash HTC 1.6 recovery image
Flash Cyan of your choice
Should work.
Good luck

I don't believe so...
Even though it's called "system recovery image" it doesn't touch your recovery, all it is is a rom. You should still have whatever recovery you used to have.
Wrong .. yes it is Devphone version and yes it touched my recovery boot.. dont have permission to reflash boot image or su

You blew up your own bomb while still in the building..tsk
If you read the manual it says you must be out side during demolition..
'5. Press Alt-A (or select "apply any zip from sd")
* DRC83_base_defanged.zip or signed-dream-devphone...
6. Press home to confirm and let installation complete --Note that no "I have finished my job" message will appear after it finishes. Attempt to move the trackball once you see "Formatting CACHE:;" if you can move the trackball, it has completed the installation.
7. STOP - DO NOT REBOOT YOUR PHONE
8. Once again, press Alt-A (or select "apply any zip from sd")
* Select update-cm-4.2.x-signed.zip "
Let this be a lesson that it is important to always read the instructions, the soldiers in war dont run and gun they have strategies while fighting for this country of ours...
AH i didnt see it that way. I did not found any manual/workarround eather. i thought i flash the 1.6 dev and then go to console and mount the mtdblock3 as RW and flash_image pimped 1.4 and then upgrade.
unfortanatly i was unable to mount so it flashed my recovery. now i have to:
1.downgrade to RC7/RC28 again
2. install the root acces with the pimped recovery 1.4
3. save the dev 1.6 to SD
4. Flash the DEV 1.6
5. Wipe
6. NO REBOOT!
7. flash latest Cyanogen

Just by using a pure logic.... shouldn't you follow all the same steps if you have the same problem??? Letting us know that you have that problem will not make it go away. Besides, nobody can help you if you don't tell us how you got to this point. What rom did you have and what did you try flashing?
