Hello guys, this is my situation.
I had a G1 whit android 1.1, these are the steps I did:
1) I install the new radio (latest version) (before, assured me that the phone in the booted mode say PVT)
2) I install the SPL haykuro's 1.33.2005
3) The phone is stuck on the T-Mobile G1 Screen, I remove the batery, put on again and update the CyanogenMod 3.6 rom.
4) The phone is stuck on the tmobile g1 screen again! ... I removed the battery, turn on the phone and stay stuck again.
5) I can enter in the booted mode and recovery mode but I do not know what to do.
which is what I do now?
Thanks for responding
pd:Sorry for the spelling, I do not speak English.

you are talking about a Hard Reset (alt+w) ? yes, I do it before and after, but the situation remains the same.
use power + camera and reflash dreaimg. your phone is only soft bricked so you can fix this. then after you reflash dreaimg regain root access and follow the flash procedures to image your phone to a non standard build.
Flash to JF ADP1.5 first, See if that works. Is your card partitioned?
why make him flash to a jf build first it's an unneeded step the reason i tell him to reflash rc29 or rc7 is cause it's easier to follow him right from the beginning to make sure he helped to the fullest extent once he regains root access as long as he flashes the 1st radio 2nd spl 3rd non standard build of his choice he's fine flashing a jf build does nothing except add a step that is not needed and makes it more confusing
I reflash to rc7 and can enter in the SO.
Well, I try again to update a rom, but first I make a backup.
Thanks guys !
well, the same problem again.
I install this time:
1) Rc29
2) recovery image + spl
3) JF 1.5 ADP
and the phone stuck in the G1 screen again.
I do not know what I'm doing wrong.
Just a wild stab, did you confirm that the SPL flashed correctly? You would know by booting into it (CAMERA+POWER).
If not, I would flash the radio again (just as a precaution plus its fast), flash the SPL then confirm it has been flashed successfully.
Then grab the JF 1.51 ROM, wipe then flash that.
Is it even possible to jump from RC29 right to 1.5? I would try to go JF 43 than to 1.5
I don't see why not as long as he has updated his radio before flashing JF 1.51. Far as I'm aware JF 1.51 doesn't require additional internal space (that Haykuro's SPL provides). The key is in the Radio before the big jump up in revision number.
If I'm wrong though, feel free to correct me, Its been a very long time since I started out rooting my G1
For history's sake I went from Stock RC8 > Modified RC7 (to root) > Modified RC8 > JF 1.3 > JF 1.51 > Dude 0.8 - 1.3RC2 > Cyanogen 3.5 - 3.5.4.1
ok try this reflash rc7 get root access install the recovery.img flash hard spl
let us know when you get to that point then we'll run some tests
Well, I could solve the problem. Thanks guys !!
I repeat the installation (downgrade, recovery, hardSPL, radio) but this time I install the Dude cupcake 1.2b full, and this time everything went well !
I guess that would make a mistake at any step of the installations. Surely.
But, I have a new problem. When I download any app from de Android Market, an error arises ... "insufficient storage available". (yes, I have space in the phone memory).
which is what I do?
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.
goto www*androidhustler*blogspot*com and scroll down and search for ( 2010 how to get latest cyanogen mod ) download all apropiate files and begin steps.

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!
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.
Hey, I really need to update my cyanogen.
My alarms wont go off, get calls and my phone doesn't ring, etc
Phone:
-G1/Dream
Version
-Cyanogen 4.2.9.1
My question is:
Ever since this version,
1) are updates done different, or do i simply have to make the nandroid backup, download update.zip and apply/restart phone.
2)Do i have to do it from the computer, or can I download the update from "CM Updater" and apply it?
3) Can I go directly from 4.2.9.1 to 4.2.13
BUMP
BuMP
BUMP Please
I don't your allowed to bump yourself.
Looking around works great. Taken from Cyan's wiki
and BTW 4.2.15.1 is the newest
Upgrading from 4.1.99 or higher:
1. Download Cyanogen's ROM latest version and place it onto the root of your SD card.
* Magic32A users follow these additional instructions.
2. Boot into Recovery Mode.
3. Choose the "Apply any zip from sd" option.
4. Select the CyanogenMod ROM that you want to upgrade to.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions.
Thought I might want to specify that is for 1.6 only. have to wipe everything to get to the new eclair.

You don't HAVE to wipe but it is highly recommended. I didn't and I went from 4.2.15.1 to 5.0.6test1 to 5.0.6test2. In fact... I haven't had to wipe since JF 1.42!
However you do need to have the DangerSPL and the latest radio to install 5.0.6 (Eclair- 2.1 roms) on G1.
Ok....first off...i'm not a noob....i spend all of my time in the Samsung Vibrant forums creating themes and MODs....but my dad is giving his old G1 to my little brother and asked me to see if i can throw Gingerbread on this bi*ch....before i try anything i wanted to ask the G1 experts (cuz i'm a Samsung Vibrant expert)....can this G1 be rooted, then flashed to a Gingerbread ROM? Maybe CyanogenMod? Specs are:
Firmware Version: 1.6
Baseband Version: 62.50SC.20.17H_2.22.23.02
Build number: DMD64
None of the tuts i read said anything about DMD64 build numbers...so i just want to make sure...i heard these things brick easily...any feedback is appreciated.
CyanogenMod won't get gingerbread on g1 soon, but there is work being done.
You can run gingerbread on it: two quite famous ROMs are ginger yoshi and ezGingerbread, but there are more, look in the development section.

The build number will change when you root the phone, depending of which Android your going with.
My specs are these on my G1 (in my sig)
I have had absolutely no issues of performance/response with this setup.
