unbriked G1 with RIFFBOX but No recov, No fastboot, just bootloader. - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear XDA-Helpers,
First of all I want to apologize. Because likely the most of you will think the answers on my question are already posted. But I've searched and searched and I don't have found the solution. (Yes I saw this thread too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487187 It's the same question but that didn't help too.)
My phone was bricked, now is unbricked with RIFFBOX, so now is empty, it needs a ROM, i followed that treath about rc29 http://www.gphone.org.hk/cgi-bin/ch/topic_show.cgi?id=60&bpg=1&age=0 and then i stuck on error 0028002 not allowed
My problem is i cant get anywhere, just the boot loader camera+power
I really don't know what to do now.
About the error of the bootloader:
0028002
not allowed
Some specs about my G1:
DREA 200 PVT 32B

Thanks!

do you have any idea if your phone is currently on 1.0, 1.5, or 1.6? without a recovery there's not much you can do but if your on 1.5 you may be able to flash the .nbh file wich i hope would at least get your phone booted lol try to get some more info for us to help you out man sorry for your troubles...

first, thanks for your answer and i will be glad if somone helped me, ok, as i said i just unbricked my phon with RIFFBOX, so the only thing that i know is this.

was your phone rooted before this happened?

yes it was rooted before it bricked, but now after unbrick with riffbox i think no, its not rooted, because the riffbox flashed a new radio and spl, as i see its a new boot loader.

oooo yeah so you may be in 1.0.. hmmm im not sure man i wish i knew.. i dont really know about fastboot and adb.. i kno adb isnt too hard to set up.. not sure if you can flash recovery and radios and stuff through that though.. maybe try looking into adb.. not sure if you have fastboot being on 1.0... but you may possibly be on 1.5.. you said you already tried the DREAIMG.nbh file?

yes i did, i tried the DREAIMG.nbh both rc29 and rc 7

aww man that sucks... now that i think of it too i dont think you can use adb either im sorry man i wish i could help ill do some research for you!!

yes you are right, i cant use adb, thank you for helping me.... i am still waiting for a help.

Its simple..
1) make a goldcard (this may require a friends phone)
2) Download orange-1.58.73.2.nbh
3) Rename to DREAIMG.nbh and put onto the root of the goldcard
4) flash the orange NBH file
5) Follow (if desired) the 2708+ fastboot install instructions now that you have the eng SPL in that orange rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
6) compare the IMEI/Serial with the ones on the regulatory sticker behind the battery.. if they don't match, its because the creators of the raw radio write via JTAG in their haste to market.. and overwrote your IMEI with the one form the phone they dumped the "clean" image from.. rather than avoid that sub-partiton

Doesn't matter, you already got the instructions....

You will need to look elsewhere on xda for how to find the cid of your sdcard on winmo. But as long as you can find the cid .. and properly install the goldcard image to the sdcard (either via the phone or your computers sdcard reader) you are good to go.

Back to the stock SPL? The only thing I can think off and it MAY NOT WORK OR BRICK YOUR DEVICE because I haven't tested it is using USPL to flash the stock RUU and hopefully that will overwrite the SPL.
From my understanding, the stock Tmo Wing RUU does have SPL and will over write it back to stock.

Except that the HardSPL is coded not to let another SPL overwrite it. Using USPL should overwrite this lock.

can't you strip the rom of the spl like on the wizard roms?

Yes. That will let you use any ROM, but if he wanted to go back to the stock SPL for warranty reasons, that would be the way to go, I would hope.

I don't understand. You HAD the HARDSpl installed in your phone? You ran the stock RUU and it automatically wrote the HardSPL even though the HardSPL was purposely coded not to allow that?
SO you say when installing a official RUU WITH SPL.nbh - the HArd-SPL will be overwritten??
Please clarify your devicesttings.
i tried it again and i missed a step (my bad)
here are the steps that worked for me......
step 1 :run the uspl (in the botton link of these steps) but in step 3 of the uspl program the ruu isnt going to work..
step 2 : put ur phone in bootloader run the stock ruu and at 1% the phone is going to restart and get out of bootloader..
step 3:simply put it back into bootloader (without disconnecting it to your computer) and let the stock ruu run...after go thru the steps...the align the screen put a pasword ect.. let it update the windows (if u dont want it to update then just soft reset the phone before it starts) and then your done.

verified: wing can go from hard-spl to stock spl via uspl
1. download uspl aka flash center and wing factory ruu
2. copy RUU_signed.nbh and SPL.nbh from wing factory ruu to flash center
3. run it
completed successfuly with no intervention, didnt have to put in boot loader
after flashing i checked (soft reset while holding camera button)
spl was 4.10.0000
Bootloader--Stuck
Hi,
After trying the above, I now get the bootloader screen... showing IPL 4.17.0001 and SPL 4.10.0000.. Try flashing it with
Stock--RUU_Herald_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.7.707.3_02.69.90_Ship_R.exe [Error 226 Flash Write] &

I also tried alot of the cooked rom v4.0/V4.4/OpenTouch 2.4/
HERALD.ASERG.23F.WM6.RUS.PS6.rar but also get error message as file corrupt [#270]
I had the hardSPL installed before this..Trying to got back to stock rom because I am selling the phone. Do you guys have any suggestion?
Which ROM can I use to make it work.
My phone is the Dopod C800
Thanks in advance..

URGENT: flashing back to stock for warrenty - all gone wrong

hi
i've need some help urgently on this as the phone is being picked up in the morning and its currently going really bad
i had dutties 3.9 rom on, but i found a 1.19 orange rom in the wiki, so installed this.
however the display is very bad, and is only showing 16 colours so looks rubbish
I belive this is to do with the SPL
This is what i did:
1. put phone in bootloader mode (was displaying SPL 1.56)
2. ran blac_uspl.exe in USB mode which changed the SPL to 1.15 (USPL)
3. installed the rom
did i do something wrong?
any help VERY appreciated
Thanks
Did you tried to flash back your original SPL??
USPL is just a temporary patch of the SPL...
I think you have to flash back to SPL 1.15...
To check if you have the right version put phone in bootloader mode it should displaying SPL 1.15...

You are getting it wrong!
USPL is a temporary patch to allow you to flash a unauthorized ROM!
You have currently SPL 1.56 installed, but you need flash back stock SPL 1.15

1. dnload the stock spl from the said thread.
2. dnload the hspl 1.56 olinex wrapper
3. connect ur fone to pc in the bootloader mode.
4. run the hspl 1.56 olinex wrapper and do nothing to the onscreen utility.
5. wait fr the files to be xtracted in the window from where u ran the hspl wrapper.
6. replace the self extracted ruu_signed.nbh with the stock spl 1.15 that u downloaded.
7. continue with the ruu utility.
thats all thts needed..

yes you're right, it solved my problem
the reason i didn't try in the first place was becuase the title said HARD SPL and i didn't want to mess it up as i used USPL
i used Restore_Stock_SPL_115.zip and swapped the nbh file after initilizing installation (after extraction) and it worked great

SPL ??

how do you find out what spl you have ?
can someone breifly explain to me what SPL is
and i right in thinking SPL is what can make a brick ?
hold camera and power to boot in to the SPL (when the phone is off) and it will tell you. A rainbow screen means it's stock.
The SPLs other than stock allow you to use fastboot to flash things like splash images and restore nandroid backups. Haykuro's SPL (aka "Danger SPL") allows you to run HTC based ROMs like Hero and Rogers. Make sure you have the cupcake/1.5 radio (which you should already have) before flashing, otherwise it will brick.
Downgrade to Hard SPL from Danger SPL??

When I rooted my phone I installed Haykuro's danger spl with the latest radio. I didn't know it can potentially brick your phone (hence the danger part lol). I'm running cyanogen 4.0.1 and it's working just fine so far but I had 3 questions
1) Is Hykuro's Danger SPL only risky during the installation process or can it still possibly brick your phone after a successful installation (in other words, elaborate on the "danger" part please)
2) Can I downgrade to Hard SPL after installing the Danger SPL
3) How would I downgrade to Hard SPL?
Thanks guys!!!
If you are using Haykuro's spl there is no need to downgrade, it will allow you to run anything the hard spl will and more. The only "danger" with haykuros spl is when you flash it, if you successfully flashed it then you have nothing to worry about.
Rodey is correct, that H's SPL does everything hardSPL does (fastboot ect) and sloows you to run HTC Based ROMs. I don't know why you would want to downgrade but if you do it should be as simple as flashing the hardSPL update.zip. Get a secind opinion on that though if you want to try it, I'm no hardSPL expert.
You will only brick your phone with haykuro's SPL if you dont have a PVT board (camer+power to boot in to SPL, it will tell you) and if you dont have to 1.5 radio. To check either in the SPL or Settings > about phone check the baseband is version 2.22.19.26 (if you go to about phone there will be some crap before the number, ignore it).
IMO H's SPL is just handy to have. As long as you have the new radio and a PVT board nothing *touch wood* should go wrong.
One more thing, when flashing the SPL, don't play hot potato with your phone ;-)

If you didn't downgrade to RC29/7 then you should have the 1.5 radio. Check by going to Settings > About Phone and baseband version. It should be 2.22.19.26I.
I think you can just flash HardSPL as update.zip as you are, but I' not completely sure...

I swear I've heard people say they have, but dowgrading the radio after installing Danger SPL did cause bricks...
I'll go check
You WILL brick your phone if you attempt to downgrade your radio after flashing the new SPL or if you do not have the latest radio installed before flashing the new SPL

@Adrian K and nephron
When I unrooted my spare G1, I got it completely back to stock (circa October original shipment stock)
I downgraded my SPL successfully from the danger SPL all the way back to the original SPL. Also when I downgraded back DREAIMG.nbh, I confirmed at the time that the radio downgraded with it. My original post was on the unlockr.com when I was trying to help David of unlockr.com with some tutorials.
My original quote from unlockr
BTW: I have confirmed via the bootloader that the radio DOWNGRADES back to stock by applying the DREAIMG.nbh update FYI
From the bootloader I am now at

I think it's downgrading the Radio, while on Danger SPL that will brick your phone b.
I have also gone from Hard to Danger back to Hard again with no issues.
if i use the 1click root method and then install cyanogens 4.0.1... do i actually need to do the hardspl and the radio or is that all taken care of? that's the only thing that's confusing me a little bit...

If you are talking about the one click method that is know on the market as recovery flasher, that only takes care of granting root access and flashing cyanogen's recovery image. The radio and spl upgrades are on you.
Try here for more explanation
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550050
yea that's what i'm talking about... now don't get me wrong, i believe you guys here on xda first and foremost... but theres a video tutorial on android and me, and it doesn't show them installing the radio and spl between using the recovery flasher and then installing cyanogens 4.0.1... are they not doing it right in the video or are the radio and spl optional? all the guides on here seem to say you do have to flash them but the video clearly shows them not stopping to do it. so maybe their video just sucks haha. but any idea on that?
thanks so much
I have 1 click rooted and installed Cyanogen 4.01, I am on CRC1, my understanding was as I was already on 1.5 Cupcake, my current SPL and Radio were current.
I read somewhere that the 1 click method is only temporary root. But if someone could elaborate on this it would be very helpful. Also what is this hard spl ?

If I am wrong could someone please link me to a tut or explain how to flash the SPL only?
Thank you.

As long as you got the newest radio (which you do) just update.zip and update. The "danger" spl will free up more space on your phone allowing you to install the hero roms. If you decide to do the new spl then be prepared once you flash it you will be stuck on the g1 screen. All you got to do is load a new rom and you'll be back to normal.
Thanks for the reply.

So when I am stuck, how do I reboot to load a rom? Do I remove the battery?

Just before you flash the new spl put the rom you want to use on the sd card, then boot into recovery and flash. Remember if you use the new recovery you don't have to rename to update.zip.
Thanks for your help!
It Worked!!!
Cool no problem. If you don't mind put [SOLVED] in front of your thread.
spl info ?
Hi,
while this thread is on the go may i ask anyone if they can tell me how to display the currently installed SPL ?
is there a command that shows this info ??? is there another method ???
and am i correct to assume that as i have 90-MEG total on my G1 that i must have the latest SPL ??
i was so careless not making a note of which spl i used during the root method !
(( thanks DEVs ))

To check, boot in to the SPL by holder camera and power when the phone is off. The version should be at the top of ths screen. A rainbow coloured screen means the SPL is stock.

Just reflash the nbh file and let the phone update.

If using the Danger SPL you should flash the eng or hard SPL before flashing the nbh. As I understand th NBH may flash an older radio version, although no one has confirmed it.
