Flash non service versions. It should wipe your phone clean. The links above are for the non service versions.
Select any one you want. All work for India. If you want me to choose, select SEA. If you use 3g, you have to set your apn manually.

in stock i wont have memory problems rite ? .. like in cm7 my games slow down n then crash , the launcher keeps redrawing .. phone restarts wheneva it feels like ..
tht supercharge gscripts thingie thread is ther but i cudnt understand .. so stock 2.2.1 is a good option for me if i want a simple phone running games n apps to sd ?

GOT is a old version. You use GOT if you want to flash other ROMS like CM7, FroyoMOD etc because it has vulnerable recovery injected into it.
If you want stock, then you have to use the official sbf's and then flash VR for rooting and overclocking.

hmm k thnx .. ill get it to stock .. n then root it .. but no custom rom .. i like cm7 except for the slowness tht it brings to the phone ..
is ther ne advantage of having a rooted phone other than puttin a custom rom ?

If rsdlite recognises your phone, just proceed.

Just close rsdlite. Dont worry about any warning thrown up. Next you need to flash the VR from here.
Flash using rsdlite. This time when the phone reboots and before it shows the Moto logo, press and hold the "x" button on the keyboard till you see the exclamation mark. Then press volume+camera button and run AOR.
Inside AOR, first thing you need to do is to remove the OTA check.
Choose console and type " rm -f /system/etc/install-recovery.sh ", followed by exit.
Then root your phone and reboot.

i dnt get this each time .. wht do u mean by run AOR .. i get those 4 options each time .. u mean click on tht apply update.zip ?

Yes. Choosing apply update will run AOR if you have it on your sdcard.

u mean doin tht open recovery thing .. placing the zip file on the root of the sd n all ?

ohk .. got it ..

Can anyone help me-!
I have DRC83 (T-Mobile), and i want to flash a custum rom-! (CyanogenMod v5 beta 4)
But no luck-!
I formated my flash card to FAT32, then i copy all files from "DREAMIMG-RC7.zip" to the root of my card-!
But when i go to bootloader, i having an error-!
My G1 is from USA-!
Unlocked-!
I think it will help...
Watch a how to root video because I dont think you have root yet.
WOW ^^^^^
First Rename the file to Update .Ok turn Off your phone . when is off press Home {dont let go } n The turn on Button { Dont let go till you see the G1 . When a Sign Come out hit Alt+l n then alt+s
WAIT, STOP!
CM beta 4 is for the N1.. Not the G1..
I would recommend you not mess with your phone but if you still want to go to the cyanogenmod wiki and click upgrade DREAM/G1 from stock software..

i did this because my gps was not working properly.. i was running android revolution hd 1.02 then.. i flashed the radio successfully nd checked if my gps is working normally.. but no it was'nt. then i thought of flashing cyanogenmod rom.. i downloaded the zip file and placed it on my sd card.. i booted into the recovery took a backup nd wiped the data nd cache.. and yes i forgot to remove the PG32IMG.zip from the sd card. along wid this i accidently pressed on "reboot nw" option on my CWRM.. nw whn i press "volume down button nd power button" it takes me to hboot menu and as PG32IMG.zip is on my sd its trying to flash tat.. nd do not allow me to enter into recovery mode. as there is no data on the phone whn i power up the device am getting a white screen wid htc logo..
guys hw can i get into the recovery or flash any rom nw?? is it possible to manually push any rom via adb or in any other way. am unable to use my incredible s.. plz help me.. thank you

I believe there is a problem downgrading back to Froyo once you install a GB Radio. You may be able to flash the ROM, but you won't be able to flash a radio.

Stock 2.3.4 version pre rooted with uc-kernal pre configured

For those who like stock rom with 2.3 update .. this update is for u nd from now onwrds its not using uc kernels its jst the basic official rom with root access and blot ware removed
its pre rooted and very well tested and also its a backup file of clockwork mod recovery
there is no fancy thing don its official spice csl 2.3.4 version ... by installing this update may also solve ur warranty issue (becoz did for me) and since here in our country India the service attendant dont mind seeing super use.apk installed on the system since its now available on market so there is no worry u can take this phone to the service center anytime by flashing this recovery file ...
only work after flashing this rom and taking to the service center is to flash back the stock recovery image bt keep in mind my words AFTER FLASHING
How to do it
first u need clockwork mod recovery
then
all u need is to jst download the .zip file
extract it to ur pc
plug in ur phone to usb
mount sd card
look for the folder named as clockworkmod open it
look for folder named as backup
go into it and copy paste here the extracted files
now jst go to the recovery mod and then simply restore the backup and then after restoring is complete jst do a full data wipe full format the disk and i read somewhere that someone asked for document to go or something similar named app which came with the stock rom .. so its now there too i didnt removed it
link Stock 2.3.4 Pre rooted
reserve for future
also suggestions are welcome
To install these updates all u need is to jst put these files to root of ur sd card and then u need to flash it through recovery menu
PLZZ NOTE THAT THIS IS A UNTESTED VERSION SO BEWARE WHILE TRYING
i can not try it myself as my phone is out for service for 7 days if no one tried i will do it on my own when i get it replaced
I am downloading it now. soon i will tell more about it to you guys.
i hope will not brick my device.

hi
assuming u mean flash it via CWM or do u mean stock recovery
i have flashed this rom. after that i started the phone, the first problem i got is the lock screen is not allowed me to go in, what ever you i do. then i reast all my data but then also it is not working, so i returned back to rc2
^hey thanx for trying... i too was supposing that lock screen might not work .. did u noticed any changes with the icons ..??
and @haree by flashing via recovery means via recovery .. this might should work with both cwm and stock rom

Currently, we can not flash/install any update.zip using stock recovery. As I have mentioned before in some thread, for our device update zip signed using all available (test) keys returns error for signature verification in stock recovery.
okk i didn't read that anywhere bt i thought signed ziped could be flashed through stock rom and as for now don't flash this rom becoz lock screen is stucked new one will use that same old stock one

The reason behind this (I guess) is that our devices have a lot many hidden settings and apk in /cda partition (/dev/block/mmcblk0p9) and many of the apps from /system/app are symlinked (shortcut) to that partition.
Lockscreen settings are also stored there, which tells device which app to open when a particular gesture detected.
And while creating custom ROM we do not mount this partition or may be their communication does not retain. I have never tried mounting /cda/ in any custom ROM that I have cooked myself. (I forgot ), but I used to delete such links.

This apk (I guess) helps in media sharing over wifi to any other computer/device.
So should not affect the normal functionality.

okk no problem bt seriously ur work with miui and cyanogen mod dude hats offf...
update the link its working now
okk here is a very quick bug fix... the stock lock screen had not been removed from this update so as for now if u update over any rc update or other custom rom you might not be able to unlock (Except by doing an invisible slide lol)
so dont update it over rc updates or cm or miui this is ment to be updated over stock rom ... rc updates support will be added in very next update...
bt will not support over cm and miui as i dont know much about these roms
