How to restore to original?

Hi there,
My brother also has an HD and off course I put a nice custom ROM on it
However, the screen is dead since yesterday.
I already put the original dutch ROM on it, but it shows a nasty green windows screen. I can't get any further beyond allign screen...
My question: when he sends his HD to HTC, they will probably won't fix it, because they can see it's HSPL (?).
So anybody knows how to restore to complete original, without getting into the phone with cabs? I put HSPL on it, the phone is 6 months old.
Any help would really be appreciated!!!!
Thx a lot

You can restore original SPL and rom without having to get into phone with cabs.
As long as you can enter bootloader screen you can restore stock SPL.

I came across this "step for step" process via a search. I have not tried it yet (and hopefully never have to -
How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!
0. be sure to first restore stock OS, and stock radio. stock SPL is always to be done last!!
1. download your choice of a stock spl package (ie the original SPL).
2. also download the original hardspl from the attachments in this post. (I presume you already have this?)
3. run the hardspl exe but do not click anything in RUU yet. just let the hardspl EXE extract the files for flashing. (You can probably skip this step)
4. the SPL you want to revert to is a .NBH file, put the stock SPL NBH in the extracted hardspl package, overwriting the original NBH file in it!
5. continue with the RUU (or if needed, run SSPL-Manual.exe manually, then run RUU when it goes to tricolour 1.07.OliNex screen), it goes to 100%, reboots, done.
+6. to verify, enter bootloader mode, see version number on tricolour screen, should now just say 1.14.0000.
that's it.
+7. no worries: if your device is stuck in bootloader mode with Hard-SPL and you need warranty service, you can still flash stock SPL.
As I said, I have not tried this. If this does not work, search on this site or Google for additional info. Hope it helps.

Thanks for linking to the post, I just added the steps
The OP however says that they have already flashed back to the stock ROM, but that the colours are screwy. This needs the stock SPL restored as well in order to recover normal functioning (or at least so that they can send in for repairs without voiding the warranty).

note that; if you restore stock SPL 114 or 115 please download the same rom version for flashing.
ex: when you restore SPL 114 you must have ship Rom:http://rs68l32.rapidshare.com/files....479.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe
because the different SPL & Rom version will make wrong screen.

wow, thank you very much for the quick and usefull replies!
I installed this ROM:
http://rapidshare.com/files/2189268...6.404.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe
So after this I have to install original SPL? Can you guys see which one?
Thanks in advance!

firstly you must Hard SPL 1.56 Olinex
secondly flashing your rom

And restore with SPL 1.13 I assume?

The process of restoring stock rom/SPL is only to be used if you plan to return device. If you are wanting to keep you you mentioned earlier then you would need to put either USPL or HSPL on your device first. I would recommend USPL for you as it would be easier to return to stock SPL afterwards.
Once you have rom on your device, DO NOT restore stock SPL afterwards. You only restore this if you plan to return your device. If you did you would have to go through whole process of putting USPL or HSPL onto your device again to flash another rom.

The phone has to be returned because of screen problems.
I will put SPL 1.13 on it and then flash the earlier mentioned ROM.
Then return to HTC

No probs. Out of curiosity what screen problems do you have? Are they Hardware problems or is it something else which could possibly be fixed through the assistance of xda users

It's the phone of my brother, he tells me that the screen doesn't respond anymore, so he can't get past the calibration!
I'll give an update when HTC fixed this (or replaced it )
Thanks for all the help!

I'm doing this right now. I had been using Dutty's V6 before. I never updated the radio, so Ishouldn't have to change it, right?
Anyway, I flashed the stock RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe rom, and that went fine. I'm trying to flash the stock 1.13 spl, and I get error 202: connection. It thinks it can't see my phone, even though it does the initial connection, and even sees what version (1.56) of the spl is on there. Any ideas?

Ok, I did this: I put the phone into bootloader manually by pressing up when it boots up to get to the tricolor screen. That let me run the 1.13 spl pdate, and it said it completed successfully. However, when it boots ups, it still shows D:1.56 olinex or whatever. Did it not work?

Ok, acutally I think it did load up. The Bootloader shows SPL-1.13.0000. So why does it show:
R1.13.25.24
G52.62.25.34u
D1.56.00.00
Is this ready to send in for service?

If your SPL says 1.13.0000 then you are fine to send phone in for service.
R1.13.25.24 - Radio Version
G52.62.25.34u - Protocol Version
D1.56.00.00 - ROM Version

Restore phone SPL Radio etc

Hi Guys
I've been running Cyanogens images for some time without problem until last week. The G1 had frozen. I re-imaged and the apps would crash randomly every 10 seconds then it would reboot. I've tried a modded standard tmob image that is unclocked and it still crashes. I thought it was the SDcard so bought a new one. The exact same thing happens.
Searching the forums I cannot find the answer but how do I install the standard SPL, radio etc and in what order. I don't want to brick my phone before I return it.

first install the SPL and then radio afterwards ... if you try to do the radio first and you have the DangerSPL then you WILL brick

Does installing the RC7 NBH install the correct SPL?
My current thoughts are to do the SPL then the Radio then to the RC7 NBH file. Is this correct?

if you flash the DREAIMG.nbh file via bootloader it will change your radio and spl back to stock

dev phone

been having some real trouble with my uk spec g1, ive experimented with it quite alot, ran jakrom, the dude, jesusfreke, and settled on cyanogen, i dont think ive ever gone about flashing it all properly, so my phone threw a fit and now after a hard reset it comes up with the google sign in droid and it says dev phone underneath?!?
i think i also lost root as i no longer have spare parts and no superuser permissions,
i tried to root again with a down grade to ukrc7, when i try to enter the bootloader it comes up with the skateboarding droids, says no images found and go's back to the droid skateboarding again, then i cant do anything with the device!!

Could you explain a little better? So your phone is a UK G1, with 1.33.2005 SPL and you were running a Cyanogen Mod ROM, and then something weird happened?
If you're on 1.33.2005 SPL then it's a good thing your phone didn't take the NBH, your phone would have bricked. 1.33.2005 requires the 26i radio which gets downraded when reverting to RC7.

Its safe to Downgrade with the RC29 image as it replaces the radio AND the spl
Can you provide more details on the issue? How it happened/what you were doing?

one problem to another
Right, I've wiped my phone, formatted the sdcard so that all is on it is the files needed to update to cm!
The phone is running perfectly like a stock handset, but it won't let me root, when I type into telnet the code to apply the cm recovery image I get an mtd error, but it is still followed by the two ##

Have you tried using the root.apk app that helps to flash it? Search for it and maybe it can help you out

plz help - Rom install - Failure at line.. Install aborted

I rooted my G1 last night and have yet been able to load a Rom on it.
my radio is 2.22.19261
and I do not know how to check what my spl is. also when I try to install the newest spl to make sure I have it Im not sure how to install it since when I boot up pressing home and power it goes to RA-dream-v1.5.2. not sure how to do the update from here.
The 3 Roms I have tried so far are:
-FastTest2.4.1
-SuperD193-blk-WGKv3beta
-MLIGN-HeroV3.3
fasttest and superD get failure at line 59
MLIGN-Hero gets failure at line 80
So is there something I'm missing somewhere and if its the spl can someone point me in the right direction to update it??
Im still researching, but a lil help would be apprieciated and amazing

It shows the SPL version in your first screenshot. The SPL you need to load the roms you listed is in my signature.
You should be able to flash the SPL without problems because you meet the radio requirement already.

thanks.. I was just logging in to say I already got it figured out..
I thought I still had to rename the spl as update and then get the phone to boot to it wick i couldnt figure out how to do after I rooted it.
I booting it to recovery and then choose to Flash zip from sdcard.. choosing the spl I loaded on the sdcard
Works great now.. im testing out FastTest2.4.1 right now
Thanks again

I'm going to be nice this time but next time make sure you read on how to root your phone and install either HardSPL or EngSPL. Do not flash Haykuro's/Death/Danger because you'll likely brick your phone (since your first post has such an obvious answer)

Power + Back takes you to recovery, too? Did you check whether your home button is stuck?

Power + Back also works.
but what can i do with this?
EDIT: i pluged in my USB cable and i saw it was Fastboot. But i still dont know what i can do with this

If you have a working fastboot mode, you can do almost everything, i.e.
- flashing a new recovery / rom
- flashing new radio / spl
- ...
A tutorial you can find here
Probably it's enough to flash a new rom to solve your problems. In that case, you should first select the rom you would like to run, then to flash the requirements (i.e. SPL, radio, etc.) and than the ROM.
What SPL / radio do you have installed? Can you post what's written on the fastboot screen?

The thing written (wrong spelling i guess) on my fastboot screen is:
DREA110 PVT 32b
HSPL10.95.3000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.26 1 or I (i couldn't tell from the screen)
Oct 20 2008

Ok, you have installed the so called "HardSPL", which is a custom SPL which unfortunately doesn't allow you to flash recovery / radio / SPL using fastboot.
Now you have different possibilities:
1) keep your spl / radio and flash a rom which supports your SPL/radio. The old enomther roms, CM4/5 should work without problems
2) keep your spl / radio in combination with custom partition tables. In that case, you should be able to run CM6 or other Eclair/Froyo based roms, too.
3) Update your SPL and/or radio and you will be able to run all roms available for the G1
In your case, updating the SPL is to be done in recovery mode. This is a bit more risky that doing so in fastboot, because flashing is done while setting the "reboot into recovery" flag. If for some reason the recovery cannot be started correctly you will have a brick.
There are some tutorials here in the G1 area guiding you through these steps, unfortunately I don't have the links available at the moment, but if you search for it, you should find it easily.
Btw. if you really want to return to tock, you can also flash an original image ...

i really want to return to stock rom but i dont know how

There are some OTA images available which you can flash. The easiest way would be the "dreaimg.nbh", but this will give you only Android 1.1.
There are some other images available (at least one which give you Android 1.5), but at the moment I don't have the link. Additionally all the original roms do provide only a limited number of languages, so probably you need to check first, whether your language is supported by those ota-images ...
Probably tomorrow I will have a look whether I can provide you with a / some link(s).

That would be great.
but for now i will keep trying to find something, and thanks to your notes i probably will be able to find something
