Stupid question. Which phone do you have? US T-Mobile? Rogers Dream? etc...
Depending on which phone you have. You are required to use a specific nbh file.
IE: dreaming.nbh for US T-Mobile...
There are RC7 and RC29 (if I remembered it right) for different G1 phone.
Also, you will have to format your SD card using FAT partition.

One more thing, if that is what I think it is. It's US T-Mobile, then you will need to use RC29, not RC7. But you have to confirm that first.
it's an europe telefoon.
i tried to use it both,
but it's 32b
look in my post above
it says if a renamed it to dreaming.nhb
no img file
can someone upload the rc7 and rc29 and maybe rc30 mod ?????
Have you try camera+power to see if you can get in fastboot?
i see the colored screen
then the gray and that's it, then it's plops back to the colored screen
does anyone has qmat full????
no one nows the answer i see

Woah 32B refers to Us mytouch/G1, 32A refers to Magic.Why do you have that radio on a stock G1? Do you already have it rooted? Goldcard it not for a G1, you can brick by flashing the wrong thing. There are many guides and even a nicely dont vid done at unlockr.com that has the the G1 steps for you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566717
32B refers to the BOARD in the phone. 32B is found in the G1 and the myTouch (which is a Magic)
The 32A is basically (not really but just for simplicities sake) a 32B with 288mb of RAM vs. 192mb. The HTC branded Magic has the 32A board.
The 26I radio is standard for phones that ship with 1.5 donut and above.
If you have a German G1, you need to use the Goldcard method along with the RC7 DREAIMG.nbh file.
Please give us more info on how you did the goldcard method. Do not listen to Ace, he doesn't even know what a Goldcard is.
Ace.....you really have no idea what your talking about. Please learn something before giving wrong advice/false info to everyone.

like i said...you dont know what a goldcard is... its not an image you flash to your phone...its a specialized sdcard that allows you to unlock your card to flash the RC7 DREAIMG.nbh image (RC7 because hes non-US)
goldcard is not just for sapphire but for virtually 90% of phones out there based on device manufacturers. from the xda wiki
A Gold Card is a memory card that has been converted to unlock your device's CID while it is in bootloader mode. This Wiki describes how to unbrick your device if you do not have a shipped ROM that has the same CID and Device ID.

Sorry for this being a little off-topic, but I've never seen that version info before on my phone, and I have no idea what Rainbow is. Is it an app that gives you this system information?

i closed the tab allready
i did the goldcard thing.
- sd format with phone settings
(with pc over usb cable wont work, when formatting, the phones coses usb connection?!)
- reading the CID with terminal emu
- change the cid's order in the opposite and replaacing 1st two chars with "00"
- getting the goldcard with it
- opened the SD card with the hxd hexeditor
- opened the goldcard with it (both, with unchecked "open as read only")
- marked and copied ALL in goldcard image (CTRL+A than CTRL+C)
- tried to paste it in the sd card hex to offset 000000 - 00000170, than it says "Copied volume is bigger than pasting space" or something like that, its in german.
- than i tried copieing only the same offset in the goldcard, and want to paste with rightclick -> "Paste" is unselectable. so i did CTRL+V and that worked.
saved it and tried this
- i used the RC7 dreamimg.nbh file. did not work
wheres my fault?? (i had to open the hxd hex editor as admin to work)
What do you mean by the RC7 didnt work? did it not flash at all with the "Not Allow" error?

I just tried this tut. Thats what not worked for me. I found another tut, with rc7 in a german forum, but with a linux distro??
It says "not allow 0028008" or something like that.
Whats the matter with the pasting "error" when trying to paste the whole thing in offset 0000 - 000170??
Do u have icq or msn and little time? So we can make just the rooting stuff together?
I have a german g1, and i managed to root with the 1 click root application. http://phandroid.com/2009/08/17/1-click-root-its-real-and-it-works-recovery-flasher/
Don't know if it still works. You might as well give it a try.
So now i tried the linux method.
with the dd command
wont work ether
in another fred i read that u DONT have to change first bit to 00
so i tried this, wont work!
It wont make any difference if i do it with dd in linux or use the hxd hexeditor.
everytime it says "not allow 0028008"
dont even cares which dream i take.
i tried all i could find!
the one for UK, US and EU. wont work ether
now i dont know what to do.
i read, linux cant ready the cid right and i should use a WM device. but i dont have one
is there any other way to read the SD CID RIGHT with another method?
i think its the wrong CID...
plz help

hättes du meinen beitrag anständig gelesen dann wüsstes du dass diese methode NICHT geht weil die nur bis zu ner bestimmten version geht und das handy meiner freundin schon darüber hinaus is!!
Lesen hilft!!!!
First of all, I'm not German. I just happen to live in Austria for a while so that's why I bought a contract here and have a German version of a G1.
Second of all, being rude, even in German, is not constructive. I was trying to help. For me it worked, and as I said I don't know if it still does. But sorry for posting an idea on your most precious thread. Apparently ignoring my reply isn't enough.
The Goldcard method didn't work for me either. I tried it about 4 months before you did. From what I know the type of your sdcard can be incompatible with this method. Try it with some brand name cards.
Good luck with your "!!!!!!" I'm sure they will provide nicely.
Hi. I think i have the same phone as yours and it was hard to root... take me few days to find out solution.
offtopic: you got your phone is sg correct?
The main problem i found out is the "rainbow" spl aka RGB menu which will disable us from rooting.
Try this
1. We need to change our spl as the "rainbow" spl is "protected".
Update your spl to hardspl. You will need the correct radio version and the recovery img.
MAKE SURE YOUR RADIO IS Radio-2.22.19.26I
Use the 1click and you will have the cm recovery 1.4 +jf.
HSPL:
Code:
http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1RootWalkthrough/HardSPL/update.zip
Use cm recovery and select the update from sdcard.
2. After you changed the spl, you should see the skateboard spl and not rainbow anymore.
3. After that you should be able to downgrade your version to rc29.
4. Backup any files on your SD card that are valuable to you
5. Format your SD card to FAT32
Windows: Right-click on SD icon and select format
6. Download the RC29 dreaimg.nbh file (don't rename it)
* RC29 (US): http://android-dls.com/files/upload/DREAIMG.nbh
7. Put the file you just downloaded onto your freshly formatted SD card.
8. Turn your phone off.
9. Hold down the Camera button, and press the Power button to enter the bootloader.
10.Follow the on-screen instructions to flash the image. Press the power button/trackball to continue.
11. When it's done, press the trackball.
12. Reboot.
13 You should have rc29
Use this guide for your phone if the top fail. You need the hspl(3 skateboard android) in order to proceed with anything

@kalin: ok but if u did read, u should know that one click doesnt work. Or why would i try to goldcard for like 2 days??
Which G1 did u have had where it worked?
Which FW and what RC??
Afaik one click dont work for 1.6 , right?
@wizme:
Ok, but how can i flash the hardSPL without root ?
Is there a way to flash spl to a stock 1.6 with drc92??
As emntioned before, one click dont worked!
Or r there different versions and perhaps one i dont tried ??
did you try this 1click, this should give u root
Code:
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1263084
Do you have the cm recovery menu when u home+boot?
one click doesnt work on 1.6
you need root to flash a new SPL
try another SDcard for making the goldcard. your current one may not work
Did you try this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485364
it has a different method to create the goldcard
only other sd aviable is mine. its same stock SD-Card. the sandisk 2GB. may it work anyways? My SD is parted and so on. all the stuff on it.
is it possible to make an image of the SD and restore it after using it for rooting my gf's G1 ??
OK THREAD CAN BE CLOSED!!
I used the ASTRO file manager to read the CID and i could change the fontsize aaaaannnnddd ...... i had ONE "0" too much !!! LOOOOL!!!
now it works! right now its flashing RC7.
the rest is nothing for me!
REALLY MUCH THX to everyone for ur help and patiance!!

You you have the right DreaIMG.nbh file? RC7 is Europe RC29 is US.
no limit
I tried both, still nothing. I get the same message not alow
Where did your device originally come from? The error is related to the nbh file not being compatible. You can Google for this and find lots of discussion about that error message. If it is not US or UK it may take some special steps. There is a process involving a "gold card" that may be what you need.
I am also having this issue. it is a USA Tmo G1 with the DMD64 1.6 update. mine flashes a screen that says "no img file then gets stuck on a 3 colored screen with the radio info. any ideas?

Hi Folks,
I've been at it for weeks now but got in a mess that i am unable to resolve.
First i tried the oneclick method to root my phone but that came out blank.
Then i followed the guide posted on this forum but again no luck.
When i try to restore to a previous version of android ( RC29) all i get is " not allow' when i try to load it ( camera button + power on button ).
I bought this phone new as a liquidation offer from T-mobile.
The guy that sold me the phone says it is a European model. ( not US or UK).
these are the specs of the phone:
Android 1.6
Smallband 62.50s.20.17 U_2.22.19.26I
Kernel 2.6.29-00479-g3c7df37
Build DRC92
When i enter the phone to install dreaimg.nbh i get the following info.
Drea110 PVT 32B
HBoot - 0.95.0000
CLPD-4
Radio 2.22.19.26I

ok well that was the original rc29 for US... maybe ur phone is UK model? which means you need rc7 and sadly i do not have a link to that.. BUT that might not be the only problem.. im not sure if the goldcard thing might have something to do with it.. lol im sorry wish i could help more..
You can try to flash this rom (orange-1.58.73.2.nbh) by copying to you sd-card and flash from hboot mode.
It comes from the +14MB thread and will give you a rom with a full engineering spl from where you can flash all other things using fastboot.
0002802
In my case I got a phone which I did not know if it was from Europe or the US. I just happened to get the "0002802" error when using what I assume to have been the wrong firmware (European in my case) as when I tried the US version everything worked fine.
In the Cyanogmode wiki there are both versions download them and try both
(Rogers HTC Dream)
Ok, so, i know this sounds ridiculous, and you may find yourself asking "WTF Was He Thinking?!?!?" But, was a late night, and i was quite possibly half asleep lol...
Ok, so, long story short, i have tried possibly every rom for the Rogers Dream, and majority of them didn't work for me, or atleast, if they did, not that well.... Cyanogenmod 6 worked ok, although it started to get slow pretty fast :/ Anyways, i had previously rooted and flashed my dream with the steps provided on cyanogen's wiki, but i had never updated the kernel or anything, so, i came to the conclusion that it was possibly my kernel that was un-allowing me to run most roms, so i decided to update my kernel using the steps here
"http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139"
Everything went well, kernel updated, wiped everything, except i accidently deleted my recovery.....but thought, no problem, i'll just follow the instructions on the thread, no biggie.....it said to download the "orange-1.58.73.2.nbh" and flash that......BUT... I Should have known that the Orange one was the one for T-Mobile!! But out of stupidity i didn't realize it and flashed it!! Now my phone won't boot up or Anything :/ when i try to boot into recovery OR Hboot, it shows the t-mobile startup flash, then shows an error with a triangle and a yellow exclamation in the middle, with a phone on it's side beside it!! :S
Did i completely mess up my phone?.... Someone please help!! x.x
I got a Rogers dream and I just push amonRA with adb. As for the exclamation screen, I think there is a key combo to bypass it. Something like volume up and power at the same time. I can't remember now the exact combination. Took a lot of Googling to find it, and if I remember correctly the dream has a different combo than the tmo did. But with this nexus one my memory has faded.

The orange nbh is orange not t-mob..
But has a eng spl so recovery is easy.. head over to my 2708+ radio thread and flash that, a 2708+ rom (most new roms support it and older ones the kernel in that thread will fix it.
Rogers if they are your carrier may cut wireless data there is a e911 wavier form to get around this search for it or ask the support person if they cut your data for detasils.
The good thing about using the 2708+ radio/kernel is extra ram, and it works on the rogers dream the same way as the non rogers dream thus you can ask more people to help support you with 2708+
Thanks for the reply guys,
ezterry:
thanks for replying, would had posted in your thread but didn't want to jam it full of even more posts of someone needing help lol...
as for your reply, it was after i had flashed the orange nbh that i was getting the t-mobile splash :S thus i assumed it was t-mobile.... but, as for flashing anything, i can't....when i try to boot phone in hboot or recovery, i get the error i previously mentioned, and when i normal boot, i can only get to the screen that says to plz insert sim card, and it won't let me pass that screen :S....that's where im stuck.....i tried using the usb cord to access adb through it, but on the comp it says there are no adb devices, i'm assuming it's because i can't get past the "no sim card" screen to enable debugging ..... Any suggestions?
Thanks!!
I'm going to hope you are doing something silly since your description indicates no problem with the phone.

That /!\ screen *is* recovery, alt+L will show you additional options.. but in its self its not that useful.

I don't recall if adb is enabled by default on the orange rom; regardless this is the rom. (putting a sim card active or not in the phone may let you get further however ought not be necessary )
So either you got so anoyed at your phone you did phisical damage to it or you are attempting to enter HBOOT/Fastboot incorrectly.
Powering on when holding 'camera' is supposed to always bring you to the HBOOT screen; then pressing send or back as prompted will let you to the Fastboot screen (don't re-flash the orange NBH, say no if it asks)
Alternatively either booting with send or back will go directly to HBOOT.. (The rogers [2000 series] dream uses Send while the t-mobile (100 series) users Back but some SPL only provide the back options regardless of dream model.. I don't recall about 1.42.2000 so you will want to try both)
In theory Home is the only button to send you to recovery.
Once in fastboot it ought to be a full featured fastboot and the normal 2708+ install instructions will work using fastboot on your PC

Ahh ok lol, i'd installed RA recovery when i first got the phone, so it was the only recovery screen i remembered ever seeing, thus why i was confused, but yah, hit alt+L and saw the options, but yah, not that many :/

Apparently was entering it wrong, i was used to using Home+Cam+End to enter hboot.....so that's my fault....

When i enter hboot, it looks like a friggin rainbow now lol....red, green, blue, and white bars as the background :/ and once in hboot, it says "Serial0" in the middle of the screen :S and when i plug it into the computer, i tried hitting both back, and send, and it makes the "Serial0" dissapear, but seems no matter what i do, it won't show the phone as a connected device in fastboot :S
Thanks again for replying soo quickly and all the help u've been giving me, any advice on where to go from here or getting it to enter fastboot?
What you are describing is not 1.42.2000.. but 0.95.0000.. or that its likely the Dreaimg you flashed was the t-mobile rc29 and not the orange nbh..
Rc29 can be flaky.. but there are two options
1) go to recovery, alt+l and wipe, put a sim card into the phone and root via telnet.. assuming you have the 1.x radio of rc29 follow the link to my 1.33.2003 spl then with that install 2708+ normally
2) if you still can't boot you will need to use/make a goldcard (if you don't already have one this may require finding a friend's phone to help make one) and this time flash the orange nbh *not* rc29
0.95.0000 will not let you flash a rogers nbh so there is no way to re-flash with out a goldcard.. otherwise I'd just have you flash the roger 911 patch and re-root from there..
hey if you are still getting that screen with the yellow triangle and '!' that means you have stock tmobile recovery with no rom lol can you try to press (alt+L) hold alt and press L should make a list pop up.. if it does than maybe you can still re root it so than it will read your sim... but im not sure if the rogers G1 has and different software so it could possibly make it worse.. lol just a suggestion

Hboot is 0.95.0000
Radio is 2.22.19.26I
So i'm guessing it is the rc29 And i'm not too sure what a gold card is? :S

that sounds like stock 1.5 firmware to me
..Still have yet to find a solution....any help please?
info again is
HBOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.26I
Background:
Accidently wiped rogers rom + flashed t-mobile rom, and since then,
Hboot says "Serial 0" and won't allow me to flash any images, phone doesnt have a recovery, will boot up now, but only to the android set-up process which i can't continue with because it won't accept my rogers sim card, despite the fact i unlocked the phone before all this happened :/ so i can't sign in to or create a google account. Have attempted every bypass to get past it with no success. Obviously since i can't get past it i have no access to adb...
Please help
Just out of my curiousity, got download the orange nbh file (make sure that it marked orange).
Format your SD card to FAT and put the nbh file in the root of your SD card.
put the SD card in your G1.
Boot up with camera+power and flash it.
See if that work.

Thank you for your response, unfortunately i have tried that countless times with no luck it says it cannot read or flash or something, i forget what it says Exactly but it wouldn't allow it x.x any other suggestions?
I'm Really desperate x.x and i have been having the crappiest luck lately. I bought a phone off kijiji today, spent 3 hours trying to meet up with the guy to buy it, then when i did get it (after all the running around) i took it to "The Source" to get it activated in my name , and after 4 hours (5pm-9pm) they finally said they tried everything but couldn't do it because the phone is registered to someone with a contract that has a suspended account do to owing an outstanding amount of money!!
At this point, when you boot up the phone. What do you see?

It loads up to the setup screen, in which i cannot bypass...i have tried with another active (with data) rogers sim, telus sim, and virgin mobile sim card, but none of them will work....and like i previously mentioned, i unlocked the phone prior to all this happening :S
OK! I am not sure why it will not let you activate your phone. But don't worry about that ATM.
Let try activate your G1 over wifi. Follow the instruction from the link below.
