STUCK!

Okay i am fully aware of how a forum works and how much i am going to get flamed for this. I really need to go to bed and it would be nice to not have to go find a new phone tomorrow.
I installed JFv1.41 perfectly fine, had the root running etc.
I went to install a Theme, i ran the update.zip...now my phone just gets stuck on the TMOBILE G1 screen...not the flashing droid.
I can boot into Home+Power and into Camera+Power
i have HARD SPL on my root, but it is named update_OG is there anyway i can execute that to fix my problem?
Thanks

d
please can anyone help. Do i need to get a SD card reader and put a recover.img on it...i deleted it on accident because i am anuberchaun.

was the theme made for JF 1.41?
If not, that's why you are hanging on the screen.
What recovery do you have? Can you enable UMS from your recovery? If so, you can just copy a new rom and flash it.
If not, you need a memory card reader and put a new rom on it, then flash.
You are going to need to wipe obviously. I hope that goes without saying.
You should also condsider updating to a newer rom. You are still on RC33 with that I believe. Find a donut rom, like Dwang's. I would recommend you get the new Cyanogen, but that involves flashing more than one thing at a time, and I don't know if you will be able to do that without messing it up... No offense.

Okay so in my HARD SPL on boot, it says no IMAGE file. I have manually uploaded a image file to my SD's root folder. Why wont it see it?

Okay, im in deep. Last resort. Trying to reflash to rc29...only problem is it says not signature on 3 files. I definitely lost root. I using the stock rc29 though why wont it work? Maybe i have the wrong rc29 can anyone help?

Why would you flash a rom in fastboot? You were supposed to do it in your recovery. That's where you went wrong. You say you have rc29 now? Just reroot the phone then.

i cannot re root the phone because it will not get past the flash screen.
i didn't re-flash from fastboot, i did it in recovery. Ive tried re flashing a few times now. I am running jf v1.4 i can not go to any original rom, i also cannot find a DL for a OEM rom. I am trying to reflash to rc29 using the link found in at (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480) the DREAMIMG.nbh file. I was assuming that was a stock ROM, but when i try to reflash to that it says 3 files (no signature)....i was under the impression stock ROM's did not require ROOT access to flash.
i have also tried rc27

FIXED
everything i needed was right here.

Not completly bricked

Hi guys im wondering if any of you can help me out here.
I have been on cyanogen (latest) for a while but decided to have a go at puting the ''donut'' rom in the android development bit of this forum (eu version as im in uk) on my phone this evening.
I flashed the base version fine and it started up great. Then I flashed the extention (add on) part and it started up but after the ''android'' screen it just went black and nothing happend. So i did a hard reset and tried again, same problem occured.
I then tried to put the latest cyanogen rom back on my phone, put to root, started it up then BAM stuck on g1 screen. Didnt get passed it. So put other roms later cyan roms on and still same problem occurs.
I then freeked out and tried to go back to RC29, so i deleted everything of my sdcard and put the dreming file on, pressed power and camera button and then BAM it comes up with some sort of cyanogen screen and not the rainbow screen. So havent got a clue how to install the dreming file. So gave up there
So this is where im at. Nothing on my sd card. Still got cyan on my phone but cant get it started up, no matter what rom I try it keeps getting stuck on g1 screen.
I know this is completly retarded but I really need help to get this sorted.
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT
Thanks

Have you been wipping?

Wiped before flashing donut rom...And when trying to put cyanogen rom back on...

If you can boot into recovery or into fastboot then you should be fine.
Wipe, if you use appps2sd the wipe your ext partition as well.
Flash base defanged rom from Cyan's site and flash Cyan's latest (Check md5 sums of both to make sure that your downloads are not corrupted. Fix permissions and you should be ok. If you still can't boot up (and it will take a while to boot up after a wipe) then you can go back to RC29. Just make sure that your nbh file is named exactly Dreaimg.nbh and your card is formated to FAT32, otherwise fastboot will not find it.
Good luck.

Wow lots of help there thanks.
Firstly tho I cant find this ''base defanged rom'' from cyans website? Can you give me a pointer as to where it is? Is that its name on the website or is that it in short?

Forget that I found ''DRC83_base_defanged.zip''. Downloading it now.

G1 problems during first time root.......help

Ok, let me start off by saying my phone is currently not bricked. I can get into recovery(H+P) or fastboot(C+P) just fine. My problem lies with the last step of rooting when I flash the new ROM. I am currently trying to flash v4.2.15.1 which is apparently the latest Cyanogen Mod.
Now I've tried two different methods and both won't boot after the ROM is flashed.
The first method is "method B" seen over at the AndroidAndMe website. This method works fine and I can get back into the phone all the way to the point of flashing the SPL and then the ROM. It installs fine, but after reboot it gets stuck on the G1 startup screen.
The second method is the wiki guide for updating from original OS to Cyanogen. This one is a bit different using the Android 1.6 base image. The installation on this method goes smooth up untill the last reboot after flashing the ROM just as the other method. The difference here is instead of it hanging at the G1 startup screen, it get's just past that to a blank backlit screen. No images, no android logo, no sound, no nothing.
Like I said before, I can still access recovery and fastboot which seams to be my only way out. I have repeated this process multiple times on both methods with the exact same results. Fastboot keeps bringing me back to the Android 1.0 firmware(RC29) which is atleast giving me access to a phone while I try to figure this out.
Suggestions? Ideas? I really need to get this phone working again.
I am always on AIM "DeathstarsOG" if that is more convienient for those offering up some help.

What steps did you take to flash the rom?
Did you read the steps outlined in his wiki? The most important step is to flash DRC83_base_defanged.zip first, then his rom over the top.

dbl post sorry.

I followed the steps on both writeups exactly how they were written. As far as the wiki one, I already had a few of the files needed from trying the Androidandme method. Also, my phone is basically already downgraded to the RC29 so thats another step i can skip. All needed files are already on my SD card and were installed in the following fashion:
DREAIMG.nbh
cm-recover-1.4.img
DRC83_base_defanged.zip
update-cm-4.2.15.1-signed.zip
ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip
My SD card is already formatted to FAT32
I set up the telnet to get access to recovery mode, wipe phone, then install DRC83, then the cm-4.2.15.1 and lastly the radio. I do a Home+Back reset after installing the radio and it goes past the G1 Startup screen, to a black lit screen of nothingness.
If you're looking at the wiki guide named: "Full Update Guide - G1/Dream Firmware to CyanogenMod" you'll see I basically am supposed to be seeing a update screen that loos like a open box with an arrow pointed down toward a phone after I do this reboot. Well, that doesn't happen. It just goes to that black screen.
Now I'm not a whiz when it comes to stuff like this however I can figure things out fairly sufficiently for the most part. But this has got me stumped. It sounds like I may have a corrupted version of Cyanogen as everything else I have been able to install and actually run on the phone(besides the DRC83). Or maybe I need to flash the radio before the DRC83? I haven't even gotten to the SPL, and after all this I may not want to.
I've done this process over and over atleast 8 times and I feel like I basically know every step by heart, but I still don't want to just guess at what it could be and risk a brick. So that's why I'm here. What do you guys think could be the issue?

Do not wipe the phone after istalling RC29. nbh file rewrites everything, and I mean it... everything.
Here's your order:
DREAIMG.nbh
Boot, sign-in, obtain root (telnet, connect to local host, you know the shpill).
Flash recovery (use ra 1.6.2, it's more updated then cm 1.4)
Wipe
Flash DRC83 defanged.zip
Flash ota radio, follow directions on the screen, you will need to reboot at least once
Flash 1.6 rom (cyan's is a good one to start at least)
Fix permissions.
Wipe
Reboot
Do not set-up linux swap or apps2sd at this time, it will complicate the process more then needs to at this point, you can do it all later.
Good luck.

You my friend are a genius!
Maybe the write-ups for rooting should be re-written to follow this as it worked flawlessly.
I started all the way back from step one at the default G1 1.6 Firmware.
Downgraded to the RC29.
DL'd telnet from the market.
Installed the new RA-recovery
Wiped.
Flashed DRC83.
Flashed Radio.(promted me to reboot)
Flashed the ROM.
Fixed Permissions.
Wiped again.
Then reboot.
Process went flawless, no hicups or anything. Thank you very much sir!

[Help]Couldnt install a ROM

I've rooted my n1 (I think)
with the unlocked logo and flashed the recovery also with SU performing normally
everything's fine until I flash zip from sdcard
it shows E:no signature(763 files)
and stopped me from installing cymod 5.0.5.3
are there anything i missed? I've been searching the solutions for hours
my build number is ERE27 and have updated the radio

Download the file again and see if it works, or you can try and download another rom.

thanks very much...finally able to install a mod...=]

Unfortunately the setup wizard has stopped

i installed the NAA kernal and CM9, and all going great, i did however realise that i needed to install gaaps, so i placed on card, rebooted into recovery and installed, all going good, and then after bootup where you tap the android man to continue. this is what i get 'UNFORTUNATELY THE SETUP WIZARD HAS STOPPED'..
I cannot bypass this. ive tried installing two different gapps on it, and both times this..

Hello guys!
I'm new to the forum, and a total noob when it comes to android. I have a VERY similar problemToday I installed the latest version of CM. Worked fine. I installed gapps. Now when I turn on the device, it just shoes the message and I can't do anything. I wanted to try reflashing a newer version of gapps, but I can't put it on my sd card, because my computer won't detect it anymore...I can't use my phone at all, I am starting to panic :/
