T-mobile G1 to ROGERS HELP PLZ

Hi guys
i had a rogers htc dream. i have used to the one click guide and haykuro methods to root my phone with cyanagen rom. however my phone is running extremely slow for some reason and i would have to force close all the application everytime. the only way to make it work is to uninstall and reinstall and reboot and use them for an hour and start force closing again.
while i was browsing i came to find out abt Super Dwang. some people are sayings it stable and fast. so i decided to try it. so i also wanted to get the new recovery Aman-Ra. once i installed that recovery...i was no longer able to go in recovery mode or start my phone. it would remain stuck on ROGERS logo. no matter what i tried didnt help. in desperation and by panicing i used the method on code.google.com to unbrick my phone. which led me to download DREAM.nbh and update that. little did i know once i have done that i ended up on T-mobile G1 with 1.0 firmwire and the original SPL. noting i could think of worked. i did reasearch one for last 5 hours and no help. so i have no choice to but post a thread in hope for a solution. i do want to mention was able to go to firmwire 1.1 with rc033 if that helps. i wanan go back to original HTC DREAM they way it came from rogers with 1.5 cupcake. if i want to root again i will do it later. also how do u upgrade radio i cant seem to do anything. please help.....i dun have a spare phone!!! i can make call but i am just so disappointed....please someone help me! i am a noob at this!

relax
At least its still running. I rooted my t-mobile under nearly the same circumstances (v1.1 etc) using the gold card hack. Youre a noob? So keep reading until you know what youre doing. Im at work atm. Maybe i can help when i get home. But 5 hours waiting is nothing. Dont force it. You could try it in the #android irc channel at freenode, meanwhile.

hey sHR00m thnaks alot. but i was able to go back to the root mode with cyanoge. what i did is i used to flashrec to back up and then flashed cyanoge 1.4 and at that point i was able to goto recovery mode and i used my laptop to put donut and latest cyanogen rom in the sd card and did a full wipe and installed. however when it loads it still says t-mobile g1 no that i care. i was able to use 3g from rogers! (it also returned me to original radio). but then i installed the amon-ra recovery and installed it (btw its amazing) and i flashed superD rom (super dwang) and its amazingly smooth! but i have 2g...dont have option for 3g and even with 2g i cant access the interent at all...no edge noting. i can only use WIFI.... with cyanogen latest rom its darn slow everything keeps force closing. apps dont run properly.....id unno why. there are many who are like its wow fast and me i am not getting the speed. i dunno what to do....can anyone plz help? i need 3g back or otherwise return to cyanogen but need to have speed and stability....

ah glad you made it back. no idea about the radio thing tho. im sure the information you need is out there but dont mess with the radio until you get it.

hey thanks...so right now i am on dwangs latest rom....and although i wasnt able to go on interent with my provider. i manually put in the apn's and to surf on 3g however with the dwang rom i cant seem to make it work for app2sd. i mean i created a partition and when i load i dun see a second part for my sd. and when i am installing apps it uses internal storage but not full but a partial. for example i installed a 4 mb app but i saw a 2 mb decrease on internal storage.

:( help please - stuck :(

so i have my telus hero rooted and everything \/\/ent fine until i got to the rom flashing part. i tried flashing fresh2.0b and it gave me an error
e:failure at line 2:
assert getprop("ro.product.device") == "heroc"
Installation Aborted
I have read for about 5 hours and cant get it i can access the recovery menu fine and have \/\/iped data and delvik, tried flashing the rom and its an error.
\/\/hen i try flashing fresh1.1 it says successfull but \/\/hen i reboot it just sits at the HERO boot screen and does nothing i have to take the battery out and load the recovery with the home button
\/\/hat am i doing \/\/rong here? i used the goldcard to root and have ra-hero-v1.6.2.img recovery loaded perfectly
please and thank you

Isn't Telus a GSM Provider?
I think you are trying to flash CDMA stuff to your phone. YOu are going to brick your phone if you aren't careful.
Check the other Sub Forums, this is for the CDMA hero.

i cant get boot into android

i can see the apps in the market but it just wont download. can anyon help this is the walkthrough i was following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480 , i got to step 6 in the Root your R29 or lower section.
please help
the rom i would like to put on is SuperCSDIv4, so any tips and advice would be good

http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/22/how-to-root-the-mytouch-3g-or-g1-in-one-click/
and search for recovery-RA-dream-v.1.5.2.img

thanks jamb, i followed your route and it was much easier. thankyou

Your welcome mate

when i ran though the steps, i got to the end and everything was how it should be.
as id been messin with it foe ages i decided to end there, and i posted all was well abouve.
ive tried to install to roms today both never worked so i must be doinf something wrong.
heres what ive been doing.
empty sdcard, put the rom on it still zipped and renamed to 'update' . insert sd into G1 then boot via home ad power. when ! screen apears press 'alt L' then sellect wipe data followed be install update.zip. then reboot.
once rebooted im still with the original 1.5 .
when i do the wipe and update.zip to me it seems to quick (like 3 seconds for both).
any help peeps

just noticed that that whan i attemp the updat.zip it states update terminated so ive fond my problem ive also noticet that the spl didnt update, even thou it looked last night if all was ok????
going to run through the steps again and see if anything changes. il update later

hi jamb can you gice me a diect link to the spl you used please i thnk that is where im going wrong

here ya go mate
DANGERSPL

sheers jamb, i just keep getting the same msg once i try the update.zip
varifying update package.....
E:No signiture (5 files)
E:Varification failed
Instalation aborted
im at a loss now. any ideas???

What recovery are you using? the alt L thing makes me think you are still using stock.
If you are using RA you don't need to rename it to update.

im using recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.3.img
ihave just tried to use the one u are using but flashrec wouldnt see it, imreally at a loss now.
i just tried to install android stoc 1.0, so that i could start again but that to wouldnt install. so it looks like i may be stuck with 1.5 for now atleast.
edit- it wernt the one u have it was the recovery-RA-dream-v1.6.2.img i tried second

mate u have Uk model?right
just intall flashrec and 1.6.2 recovery image
start flashrec / in the box type something like
/sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.6.2.img
then flash it dont interpt then process and u got root ...
note : put img file in the root(main) of ur sd card

thanks for your help jamb, but i seem to have damaed the boot loader somewhere on my rooting journey ,
i think i know where i done it as after post one, and before post two, i did (i think) get root and managed to flash superCSDIv14, (i got the custom spash with the android bot peeking from behind the A) but after the splash the phone just went black.
when i got your first post i decided to follow that post, i managed to flask android 1.0, then update to 1.5 then from that point i couldnt flash nothing, i even tried to flash back to 1.0 at one point.
last night i went to bed thinking that id be stuck with 1.5, but when i woke, i made the QTA upgrade msg on my phone so i ran it and now am back to where i started 1.6 (which is good cos google nav was released yesrerday)
as the OTA update worked all must not be broken so i decided to start again and tried to flash 1.0, it just faid so. my friend i am giving up, thank you for your time.
stephen.

its been two days now since i gave up on my root of the G1 and am starting to get the craving to start tinker with t againg, i dont want it to beat me.
can anyone outthere shed anylight on my plight. also give me some pointers.

[Q] Can I flash recovery and roms from the phone?

Hello everyone. I have a question. Can I flash the recovery image (whether CWM or anything else) and also the Roms from within the phone without using a PC.
The problem is I don't have access to a PC (all my laptop usb connections got fried) and I have an HTC Hero. I just download whatever I want to the SD card and flash it without the need for a PC. I wonder if that is possible?
I got T-mobile Tab a couple of days ago. I rooted it and I got Rom Manager. But after I reboot in recovery, I get the verification error.
So, can I do this without the so-called Odin or Heimdall?
Thanks in advance...

if you got the CWM work on your tab so probably yes u can do so , u just need to download the rom and read the discretion given by the dev and flash it via cwm
but
there is always a need of odin , in case u stuck or something ,
and also its depend about the dev is made it to be flashed by odin or cwm .

[Q] OS update failure

Hi folks,
I am not familiar with the terminologies that is used in this website, and the thing is i was trying to update my OS on HTC incredible S using the official OTA update, but during the update process after downloading the update package and amid the installation it was shut down automatically and its now like a dead phone and i can't either turn it on anymore and it always gets stuck in the installation process every time i try to turn the cellphone on. To my knowledge, It seems that it has lost its boot file and can not load the system.
It would be appreciated if you guys could help me figuring out what has happened to my phone and what i can do to recover its normal status !
BTW, my cellphone is nor rooted and has no warranty !!!
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
Regards,
Saeed

By hboot i suppose that you mean holding down a specific key and then booting !
I have tried that but the problem is i think because the update process was interrupted while installing the new OTA, i guess the device has lost its boot file and i need to do something to recover it.
BTW, i have heard that some guys try to change the board in order to repair this kinda failure !
What do u think guys please help me recover its status .. i'm so pissed off

Did you try taking the battery out and putting it back in?
Also if it did shut off during radio or hboot update you now own some expensive trash.

Also there are variety of recover options, one is J-Tag, second fastboot methods and so on. Soon, if ai have free time I make you a guide about it.
