I recently tried to bring my G1 back from the grave but, unfortunately it seems to not resurrect. I upgraded to the GB and since then I have not been able to use my Touch Interface! It will boot, it will get to the "Touch Android", but i only can use my trackpad to select options.
i know i hate this, ive had a few g1s like this and it is so annoying that you cant just highlight with trackball! when this happens i replace the digitizer and its fixed.
if anyone else has a good idea how to skip this, other then deleting the start up wizard from the rom of choice id love to know
So you think its the digitizer?. I think its the kernal that I have flashed I had two G1s' flashed the sameRom on both and the same incident! Any takers on this?

so you are saying everyone who flashed the same rom as you now has a useless touchscreen? i kinda doubt it, maybe im wrong here but i cant imagine a kernel causing the digitizer to stop working when the rest of the rom is fine. there are easy ways of testing your theory you know...
Like? Let me guess install a different Rom and kernal?

BTW, you could also check Doc's ROM if you want to use custom rom. I personally use it and its great. It has also some good guides compiled on the first post. I strongly suggest you read the Doc-Froyo.pdf guide in that thread.

Did you wipe everything in recovery mode before installing the rom?
If you're not familiar with rom install steps, follow the steps in the guide posted in the development forum.

It depends on which you binds good. For me I use floyo 1.2 rom. But you may give a try for froyodvillain 1.7(I think).
and here is somewhere a chinese rom, which is also good too but it may be abit difficult for you to understand that things as you are new to this things..
hope this helps you

I use FroydVillain 1.7.2, but if you want speed, just flash flykernel 12 on your current ROM and it should be rapid.

There is a Radio thread in the dev section, where you can flash the newest radio versions. As to what it does.. im not entirely sure myself its supposed to improve phone reception i think.
But make sure you flash the correct type of radio... There is GSM or CMDA. Make sure u know which is the correct one for you!
Ok, Papa Smurf put together a really good ROM, I'm just such a noob its killing me. All of the Jargon involved in this is very far over my head. whenever one of you guys say any technical term, i literally have to go look the word up. Rooting for most people with a working brain is a cakewalk. That wasn't the case for me. But i stuck in there and got it done.
Then it came time to install the ROM. I looked through the thread that he posted the ROM and never found any real directions. I'm sure this is due to the fact that everyone has enough sense to figure it out on their own.
What i did was went to the ROM manager and installed the ROM, then re-started my phone. it stuck on the htc screen for a minute then the droid eye thing came up and that kept looping. Soo, according to what I understood from the directions....i took the battery out and put it back in. The first problem I am having is how to turn my phone back on now. It's not even recognizing that the charger is plugged in. The second thing i need is for someone to give me any type of directions on hoe to do this the right way. I dont know how to flash the jit file either.
I'm sure i sound like a fool but thats what i am. Thanks ahead of time to anyone who tries to help me.
I got my phone restored back to the way it was before I tried to install the ROM. I just need to get the ROM installed.
I got it I guess. I just restarted my phone about ten times and it eventually took... a red eye popped up and it said "droid" over and over like it has been doing. Then the rotary lock screen came up and i started to set up my phone. but after i finished it went right back to the eye thing. Is it because of the JIT.ZIP file not being installed right?
That's pretty old. Why not try a nice 2.2 or 2.3 based rom? 2.1 is so... old.

Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Cm7 or aospmod both are fine choices for non sense roms. Not real sure about sense roms, though. LiquidSense, maybe? Remember to wipe everything before you flash a new rom. Dalvik, cache, data all need it when flashing a new one. More than likely, that is what is causing your boot loops. Don't be so hard on yourself, we all were new once. Btw, I said "hard on"! *Beavis laugh*

What recovery are you using? If it isn't RA, then I can't tell you. I would assume the dalvik wipe would be somewhere around the other wipe options.

I'm interested in non-sense roms.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
have a g1 and for some reason roms wont flash to it. it came runnign gingerbread of some sorts. i wiped the data via recovery, and it wouldnt reboot, it boot looped. so i have then tried wiping everything and tried flashing lots of roms, but none flash. the phone seems to hang on the g1 screen. i have no idea why they arent booting. i can get into recovery if that helps. any ideas?
EDIT - its only on certain roms now, like cm7, and sense roms
They could require different SD card partitions, or radio/spl combinations.
What radio and spl does it have? Using custom mtd?
I have no idea, the Tom's did mention things about that but since it came tuning cm7, I assumed it had the updated ones. Is there a threadvon how to upgrade them?

Pretty sure it supports cm7 / sense roms as ive tested before shipping. To find out radio/spl, its power+camera.
I believe it to be
.0013d/2.22.27.08
i didnt update the .27.08 (forgot what thats called.) as i heard it has less problems than the one after it. (2.22.27.08 is i believe the second most recent one)

Yah, updated radio and split and now most roms flash
Hello all here is the issue. My girlfriend has the HtC vivid and I have rooted it and obtained s-off with the wire trick. After I was done with this I attempted to find a good ROM for flashing there are very few. I decided on Virtuous Inquisition after installing VI I was fairly happy with the outcome no sense is the goal here. After the flash I noticed the signal bars not working like descired in almost all the non-sense HtC vivid ROMs. This seemed like no problem because the phone still technically had service right?
-well after using it for a few days my girlfriend disconvered that her text messages would fail to send sometimes actually sending them sometimes not. It would take serveral attempts to send the message and once it finally sent the recipent would sometime recieve for than one messages even though the vivid says it only sent 1. The same thing occured with phone calls she would have to try to call someone four or five times before it would go through. It also works the other way and sometime she will not get messages or calls for long periods of time.
This all occurs in VI and in [TEAM CODEFIRE][ICS]De-Sensed Rom by Wajee 1.6. I have tried using the stock kernel and the provided kernel with both of these as well. I have also used several different APNs and they all do the same thing.
I just flashed the stock kernel and ROM back on to the device and I am seeing if she has any problems. Could the wire trick have damaged the phone? I have not heard of anyone else having this problem.
What else can I try
Both of the desensed ROMs have plenty of issues. Wajeeh's is probably the better bet if you wanna stick with no sense. Otherwise Google wcx illuminati and go with that. It's the best ROM for the vivid by a LONG shot.
