Possibly Bricked Rogers Dream - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK so i had a HTC Dream with supergingerbread or something installed with
SPL: 1.33.0013d (hboot)
RADIO: 2.22.27.08 / 28.25
It drained battery while i was doing something at 4 hours, and 12 hours on idle and only on idle.
I decided to install superfroyo 2.6 but it gave me a error ( status 7 ) on my recovery.
I thought it might have been because of the SPL and RADIO so i tried to install DeathSPL and RADIO 3.22.26.17 and the guide i was following told me to install the radio first which i did. after i finished flashing the radio my phone told me to reboot and so i did. an android with a download bar showed up and in the next 5 seconds i could boot at all, stuck at rogers screen and fastboot or recovery wont boot up.
At times tho i get passed the rogers screen but then all i get is a black screen and sometimes there bars going across the screen probably because it thinks i flipped the screen or something ( accelerometer is acting up =/.
any help would be appreciated like maybe a cheap jtag place nearby toronto thats cheap or maybe even a more dangerous/less reliable option since i have nothing to lose =/.
thank you

I know you mentioned that it won't go into fastboot (back+power). Just want to know. What happends when you hold camera+power buttons? Will it come up with the other screen?

no that doesnt work, i tried every button + power, all i found out is that the mysterious black screen comes up sometimes and if i do trackball + power, the screen goes black with a blue LED.

Here is some info I found. See if it works.
if you are willing to lose almost everything on your phone that is installed on your internal memory then...
1. Turn the G1 off. If it’s frozen on, take the battery out and put it back in the unit.
2. Hold the Home and Power keys down at same time for about 25 seconds. You will see a yellow triangle screen with exclamation point in the middle.
Now to wipe the device clean:
3. Press Alt+L.
4. Press Alt+W for a factory reset.
5. Press the Home and Back keys again for about 25 seconds.
The device should then reset again and the hard reset is complete.

i already sent him a pm to ask him kindly if he could jtag my phone, didnt put a price on it and i hope he doesnt ask for one either =/.
anyway even if the spl and radio were compatible whats the use, the phone only boots up sometimes ( like 1 in 5 tries or something ) and when it does all it is is a black screen.

Bump, out of sadness ='(

Do me a favor and try to to these and see what happens. Turn off each time and do it.
home+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
camera+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
back+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
call+menu+power, hold for about 25 sec and release.
Also try them with SD card out of the slot, and also with SIM card out of the slot.
Let me know what happens.

@beenandroidized . I noticed that you got the same hboot and radio i was attempting to put on my g1.but now it won't boot up . Recovery and hboot still work and I know the problem is cause when i flashed the hboot it turned s-on on my g1. Do you know how to change it back to s-off ?

Sorry, I could not begin to tell you how to change it. Originally, I went I first rooted my G1 with instruction I found by googling, my G1 was at S-OFF. But after the ROM I had crashed on my and I had to reflash everything, my G1 is on S-ON. My guess it was the "Generic G1 ROM w/ Root" that I flashed at the time that changed it to S-OFF.

Just something I found while I was googling on the subject. For some reason some one had mentioned that SD card gets corrupted and it can cause the phone to do that. And that was how they fixed their problem. Never hurt to try.

If you flash a radio or SPL from recovery in that the new combo is unable to boot the current recovery you get stuck in boot mode 3 unable to boot the phone, get into fastboot ect.
This is why fastboot was the recomended way to install 2708+ radio, SPL, and recovery.. it allowed for a safe way to go from any radio/eng SPL to the new stack.
I've never seen the 3.22 radios is an update.zip in the wild, but if you used one to go from a 2.22/ebi0 recovery to a 3.22/ebi1 recovery, but the ebi0 recovery still installed, you are likely now bricked.. only hope is recovery is not reconized and let's you access fastboot commands with the USB wire attatched (even if you are stuck on the splash screen)
My jtag method will repair this.. but I havn't jtagged a phone in a while and its become a boring long painful process. Not including the time for you to get the phone to me and for me to get it back to you. Its proven not worth it on my part.

When you flashed the SPL did you physically press alt-s and home + back to reboot? (and not use the trackball)
Just trying to make sure it actually flashed. Could you also check by boot in to SPL (Home and camera ) and tell us what version it is?

No problem man
Okay, you're still on hardSPL XD
Basically when you flash the radio or SPL on Cyan's recovery, you must physically press the buttons to flash. Using the trackball will mean that when you reboot it will revert to how it was. You do have the correct radio, but not SPL.
So, grab the SPL and name it update.zip (as when cant flash any zip because that requires the trackball), alt-w to wipe, alt-s to flash, home+back to reboot. Don't touch the trackball at all.
when you boot up there will be no ROM, SPL flash formats your nand. So, after SPL flah leave your phone for a couple of minutes to be safe, then boot in to recovery and go to console. Type "ums_enable" to mount your sd in your computer so you can copy a ROM over. The "ums_disbale" when you're done and then "reboot recovery". Now wipee and flash, you can use the track ball for that too

Sounds like you might have a bricked device if you didnt install the 26I radio before when you first rooted.
Crud, crud crud crud! This is my gf's mom's dream... Was running a custom rom, cant remember which one it is... Now i am absolutely in the dog house. Any ideas on what i can do? Its not totally, bricked, is it?? Is there any such thing as a goldcard for the dream? Need help asap.
Nothing you can do, should have read the instructions.
Yes there is a goldcard for the dream, but it won't help you if the phone won't boot.
Is this a semi-brick or a full, unrecoverable brick? It does get to the htc dream splash screen, then stays there

Full brick, there really isnt a partial brick. Brick is completely unusable (no recovery, bootloader, or os), a semi-brick as you call it would be just no rom or no rom and recovery- but full access to bootloader
Well, cldnt sleep all last night. Been looking at posts trying to find a fix. JTAG, anyone?

No JTAG method, you'd need to open the phone and replace the motherboard.

What radio did you have on your G1? What SPL did you flash? If you flashed DangerSPL with an 1.x radio, then you should have read a bit more in this forum, because you bricked your phone ....

The radio should be ok for flashing DangerSPL, even if it DangerSPL (1.33.2005) is never needed!
Did you flash the radio and the SPL without rebooting first?
In the WiKi you can find more information.
After radio flashing i did reboot, and after SPL flashing i tried to reboot, but device stopped on the splash screen! I think that i was killed the boot((((

Did you check, that the new radio was really intalled? I suppose something went wrong and you were still on the 1.x radio. Then you flashed the DangerSPL, which is incompatible with that radio version ... Sorry, but there is only the possibility to find someone who knows to JTAG your phone.
i can jtag my phone, the shematix of jtag dongle is very simple and i can find parts for it in my country. Only one thing: i do not know where i can find bootloader for dream!
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Full_Update_Guide_-_HTC_Dream
im not sure what your specifications are but if its a HTC Dream 32B PVT ENG-OFF this should guide you. (you dont need to install Cyanogen if you dont want to, its just the best bootloader/SPL guide I know.)
Did you try fastboot? If booting system and recovery fails *properly* (means you are lucky) then you will be able to use fastboot from the g1 screen (will say fastboot usb on top of the screen when you plug it into your computer).
Good luck with that one.

Did you have to reboot the phone? If you did, that means the radio did not flash. After flashing the radio the phone should reboot itself.
Yes phone rebooted. but after that i flashed him with standart rc29. can standart rom downgrade the radio?
rc 29 was the DREAM.NBH??(been awhile)
if it was, then yes. it contained a radio img that flashed over yours and if your phone is in your hand when reading this, you have a brick in your hand sir.

To go to fastboot mode you have to press back + power, not cam + power! Pressing home + powser brings you to recovery.
The reason for blocking at G1 ma be also due to an overclocking kernel, so what do you want to do now?

Cam + power brings you to the bootloader, not into fastboot mode! These are two different things. You wrote, that you have 1.33.2005 SPL installed, so you should have the possibility to go into fastboot mode. From there you can reflash everything you need.

In fastboot first I would fash a new recovery image, then boot into that recovery and restore a nandroid b ackup or install a new rom.
Try to find the tutorial for setting up adb / fastboot. You should find it in this forum. Unfortunately I don't have the link now.

Slow down!! I think the NBH file will downgrade your radio and then you will have a brick! Your SPL 1.33.2005 is not compatible with the 1X radio in the NBH file. Maybe it might work if it downgrades your SPL too. I never flashed the NBH file, so who knows what's inside?
At any rate, I would reflash recovery via fastboot and then flash a ROM via recovery.

I've charged the battery / pull out many times.....any one know other ways to do unbrick? or know someone who offeres JTAG services for cheap to unbrick my G1 =(
If you can't get into bootloader or recovery - you have a brick.
It would be cheaper to just buy another G1 from Craigslist or something, I heard you can pick one up for less then $50. JTAG will be more expesive most likely.

[Q] Problem with my HTC Dream/G1 ( Rogers )

Hi guys!
I've bought a HTC Dream ( Rogers ) on eBay and I receive it this morning. The phone was already root and it was using a Cyanogen mod for Froyo 2.2.
Then, I wanted to put the phone back in the stock ROM ( unrooted ) to do the process by myself to learn how it works. So I went on google and I found a tutorial ( sorry, can't give the link since I am a new user ) that told me to download the original SPL and .nbh ( got the T-Mo G1 .nbh ) and to go on recovery mode to flash the update.zip to apply the SPL update.
Here is the problem, I think I did the wrong thing and now my phone is stuck in a reboot loop and every time, it ends on the Recovery menu and I don't know what to do...
Please, anyone, help me fix my phone...
1. Turn off the phone (or pull out the battery).
2. Hold down the BACK and POWER button for about 2 seconds.
3. What does it say on the screen?

Okay. Download the DREAIMG.nbh file and put it on the root of your SD card, then turn phone off. Hold down the CAMERA and POWER button. Press trackball to flash the image. Restart phone and it should boot up.

Thanks for your time and help.
Do you have any more idea?
Well, to get your phone to start back up and usable again is to download this and put it on the root of your SD card. Enter Recovery Mode by holding down the HOME and POWER button. Go down to "flash zip" or something among those words. Select the file and flash it.
That is DangerSPL, which is compatible with your currently installed radio (2.22.19.26I), so there is no need to worry about a brick. However, you'll want to verify that you have that radio installed by entering bootloader mode (BACK and POWER button).
Afterwards when your phone starts back up to Cyanogenmod, you'll probably want to follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4330749#post4321428
I can't access to the recovery menu. Every time I boot the device, I am stuck at the red-green-blue-white screen with the informations about my device ( the informations I gave you yesterday ).
Are you sure? When you try to hold HOME and POWER, it doesn't boot into recovery mode? This is a hard one, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe the DREAIMG.nbh you were trying to flash was corrupted, or maybe your Camera/Back button is stuck, and every time you power on the phone, it thinks you want to power into Bootloader? Check to see.
On my SD card, I juste have haykuro_new_spl-signed plus the things that Android put automatically on the SD Card
I just found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544654
A guide on how to root a Rogers G1. Scroll down to the part where Haykuro edited his post to include a "how to unroot". It'll probably help.
Unfortunately, I can't access to the fastboot mode, here's a video to show you where I'm stuck:

Do you have Danger/Hard SPL? The stock SPL that comes with the phone doesn't support fastboot (at least on my G1).
Edit:
When rebooting and holding down camera button, If it shows:
HBOOT-0.95.0000 -- You have the stock SPL.
HBOOT-0.95.3000 -- You have the engineering SPL.
HSPL10.95.3000 -- You have HardSPL.
HBOOT-1.33.2005 -- You have Danger SPL
I have the stock SPL ( 0.95.0000 )
What should I do then?
Anyone have an idea? You probably know that it suck having a phone that you can't use :/

The problem is you flashed a non rogers nbh when you unrooted.. and now you can't reflash it because it the rom is for tmobile and the phone says it can only flash rogers roms.
And since you have a very old spl you can't even flash the rogers rom..
To fix this you will need a gold card.. (maybe a friend or a spare htc phone can help you make one)
Once you have a gold card you can download that orange nbh I have in the 2708 thread, rename it DREAIMG.nbh and place it on the root of the sdcard.
That will flash an engineering spl (and a old french rom) with the eng spl you can flash a recovery and continue from their, or follow the 2708 instructions.
What if I dont know anybody with an htc or an Android phone? :/
My problem is the same.
Except for the following differences on the bootloader screen info:
DREA110 PVT 32B RUUNBH
&
RADIO-1.22.12.29

Have you tried booting into recovery? Power+volume down...
Did you try to boot without the SD card? It helped me once.
Assuming you are running a custom recovery image, go to it via the bootloader menu (Turn phone on while holding volume down, then navigate to recovery using the volume buttons and selecting recovery using the power button). You should then be able to flash the same ROM you currently have installed. If however this is a completely stock device then you could run PASSIMG.zip via the bootloader to save your current install. If you need more info just ask

how to wipe??
where is wipe option...let me tell u that i cant able to access recovery menu ..without recovery menu i cant wipe or flash the phone??
is that true?
If you can flash a rom use 2.1.1 not 2.1. Assume you are doing that thru fastboot from pc.
Also, try the 3 finger reboot to get to recovery.
Hold down pwr/vol-/trackball at sametime until phone boots into bootloader, then navigate to recovery option. Then wipe all and restore a good bu. If this happened while dl'ing apps, one may be bad. Get all of them off phone and do one at a time.

Ok, understand now.
You may have some options thru fastboot and the pc. Do you have SDK installed on pc. I am not good at that, someone else may have suggestions along those lines. Unless, as I asked, you already have used that method to flash amon ra 2.1.
If you can thru fastbboot with SDK I would still flash amon 2.1.1

help me
I am out of ideas, sorry
Someone will get you going
Sounds like you are using SDK, it may be the way to wipe and get back to an original phone state, then reupgrade. I don't know sdk very well.
Did you try the other idea of trying to get to recovery with sd card out of phone. If you do that you may want to back it up while out of phone if you have a sd card reader
Good Luck and wait for more help

Why does this thread say solved??
Just restore a stock image.
Follow the wiki guide for unroot/restore. Use the passimg method, with the FRG33 zip, which can be found by following the link on the word "here" on step 2...

Thanks for your input DR
The back to stock and passimage was where I was thinking he needed to go. But, know nothing about doing that without a lot of research of my own.
Anyway glad he got it--what did he do to fix
ken
Looks like he did exactly what I posted. Funny thing was, it was a thread on another forum, where I had suggested the same thing to someone else, and he'd picked up the trail... xD
