Wiping back to a google ROM

Hello,
I'm running the latest stable version of cyanogen 5.0.7, which is the last, i think.
And i'm having trouble with my APN settings. I want to perform a clean wipe and revert to a google ROM to see if I can get the APN settings to work on my G1 with that. Is this possible without actually breaking the phone?
I don't think it'd be downgrading as the latest Google ROM is 2.2 and 5.0.7 comes up as 2.1 on my phone.
If it's safe, could someone tell me how?

from what i understand u basically wanna go back stock so if thats then heres a link
although its been a min since i did it this way but hope this helps

thanks for the reply.
according to this page, G1 only supports up to Android 1.6 in its official form?

You know, there might have been an actual REASON why you installed a cyanogen rom.... and it was probably because of the fact that HTC DREAM only has official images to 1.6!
Unless you were just installing cyanogen rom to make life difficult....?

how could installing cyanogenmod make life difficult when it has so many cool features. I can't even remember if android was even past a 1.6 release when i started using cyanogen. what was the point of your reply?
either way, i can't remember the reason why i installed cyanogen. could have just been purely for the sake of modding.

[Q] rom question

I'm just curious about these sense roms out right now. I run cm6 but i"m wanting to run a sense rom until the wildfire 2.2 port is ready for everyday use. I tried zenfx but it doesnt support live wallpapers. Now I realize lwp's don't run very well due to our processer but some do. What I am tryin to get at is I am trying to find a sense rom with the new .7 update that runs lwp's and apps 2 sd. Iam having a difficult time finding one. now i can run zenfx with .7 update but is there a flashable zip to give you lwp's ? Or a rom in which these are included. If anyone has any suggestions let me know.

check out dangerrom2.1 he has a flashable zip for lwp.
link to DangerRom
link to lwp.zip

I appreciate it but it says that is for cellular south. I know the rom would be
compatible but would'nt the network settings be different since I'm on Sprint. Also I wonder if the flashable zip would work for that new zen fx . The reason I say that is I was trying to get a rom based off the new htc update from a week ago. I found plenty of them they just don't offer live wallpaper.

the network settings should be fine. i am a cellular south customer and i have used the sprint based roms, just had to get the sprint carrier name off of the lockscreen and notifications tray. (pretty easy search for eri.xml)
just to be safe i wouldn't flash the radio. but i think that you can just flash the LWP.zip without the whole rom. make a nandroid backup and try it, what have you got to lose?

Here is a quality sense rom. This is my sense rom of choice. Has everything you're looking for.

[Q] [DROID] flashing new rom with cricket

ok so my friend has a droid flashed to cricket with 2.1 cupcake, and he wants 2.2 froyo, can i just flash a rom with rom manager like i would regularly or do i have to do other things since hes on cricket?

really no one can answer this??????????

There are a lot of tutorials out on how to setup a droid on cricket. You can use just about any rom. I have used smoked glass, cyanogenmod, and bugless beast and lfy all on cricket. My favorite is Liquid Frozen Yogurt but am anxiously awaiting a good gingerbread rom. After you install the rom the main things you will need to setup is Autostart and apn settings for internet and mms and this also depends on the current plan and current setup. The main idea is to redirect your data via wap.mycricket.com if you are using a non android plan. For details use the search feature there are a few awesome members here that have made great step by step tutorials. Here is one that you can adapt to your needs. Keep in mind that the prl and evdo settings are probably already done since you are already on cricket and won't change when you install a new rom.

after you installed the rom of your choice you can probably just start from the connect to wifi and install autostart and go down from there. as always make a backup of your droid first so if you mess it up you can go back if needed

thanks man

need to flash STOCK 2.1

I am looking for stock 2.1 to put back on a Hero so that it can be programmed for a new user. (it currently has Fresh, and the programming - ##3282# does not work!)
So where can I find a flashable (not the RUU) 2.1?
Thanks for any help you can provide - a link would be great!

Look for liquid sense or nifinity stock based roms it's like 3 or 4 of them or look for the engery rom by pmgrands all of these are all sense based roms you can find in the hero/dev forum. Good luck
Yea it's Me Again With the
Modified Hero

Thanks - the problem is that Fresh is Sense-based too, and the ##3282# programming does not work on it.
Do you know is this works with the above mentioned ROMs?
Thx again.

Why don't you just run the RUU, activate the phone, and then root it again? Don't take it the wrong way, it's just a suggestion. I know I had a heck of a time trying to root my phone for the first time, but now that I have done it, I don't think I would have any problems doing it over again.

Should work with no problem is what I wanna say but the only way to make sure is to flash them for yourself. They should work though as they are newer builds. Good luck

You don't even have to unroot to activate the phone. Just flash any Sense rom and call Sprint. Cake and pie.

The problem is that the person with the phone is a newbie, and RUU is not working for some reason. Anyway I talked them through flashing the NFX-Sprint ROM so they got the damn thing programmed, and now they are back to Fresh.
(and to respond to laie1472, as I said above, the issue was that not every Sense ROM allows the programming, thus the question as to which work and whick do not...)
Thanks one and all.

Cant make or receive calls on my Hero

I'm running AOSP Froyo ROM (aospMod-0.9.9.2) and it runs great. I can use the internet, SMS, etc but cant actually use it as a phone which is pretty annoying. I already called Sprint and they couldnt help me, hoping you guys can.

Sprint couldn't help cuz u were rooted and their dialer codes didn't work? Or cuz they couldn't figure it out.
1st flash a different ROM and see if works there cuz if it does then it's the ROM and not ur phone.
Flash a "sense" ROM like liquid sense or nfx... while ur there test everything, update ur PRL then of all still fails then call sprint since their dialer codes will work on these Sense ROMs.
Or juat flash back to ur original ROM which was immediately after u rooted u should of made a solid backup for the "sense" ROM.
Good luck

They couldn't help you because you were on a custom ROM and not on a stock ROM. You need to be on stock for them to do anything with your phone. Go back to stock and try again with them. And when finished update your profile as well as your PRL.
