how does it work?:o
[G1 Android Development] lilchicano:
nice guide you got there. wish this was around last week before i ended up bricking another g1 i had. lol :p

but there is one thing wrong with your guide, but it isnt a major thing. you dont actually need an active data plan to bypass the log in screen if you follow this method for that. that's what i used since i myself dont have a data plan and it worked for me :D
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
hey thanks for the info!! i will add it in the guide! was unsure if there was a method to get by the sign in lol you did this yourself?
[G1 Android Development] golfslicer:
This Phone is already rooted running Dream 32

Hboot 0.95.0000

CPLD-4

Radio 2.22.23.02

At what point do I need to start?

Please PM me the steps or reply here.

1. When you say to delete old files in step two do you mean the 4 files I put on the phone in step 1.

2. When you say delete old files in step 3 just the files that were added in Step 2?

3. Then which rom do you recommend?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yes when i say to delete files im talkin about the ones from the previous step, and i recomend the 3 roms listed at bottom of guide :D i suggest you start off at step 2 boot into recovery go to wipe data and do so.. than flash the "spl" file first, than wipe data again and flash the "danger spl"!! no need to flash radio file because you are currently on that radio.. lol than just continue on to step 3!
[G1 Android Development] golfslicer:
Started at Step 2 Wiped, but there is no selection on the menu to select a zip file, just update zip. Is the Update zip from step 1 supposed to be on the phone even though I started at step 2. I tried download an update.zip with clockwork but get signature verification failed.
[G1 Android Development] habitat22:
Great guide!

Thanks for using my name in step 3 :D

Step 3 is perfect :D

BTW: Here is my version.

I think the root proces goes faster without downgrading, only search for "universal androot", and install this .apk! Then click on root and your device is rootes !

And then install a recovery via "Rom Manager" from the market.

But this is my opinion :D I did it like that!

I didnt use any guide, I made everything by myself and it worked! Rooting, 2.22.23.02 radio and 1.33.2005 hboot(spl), and then the 2.22.27.08 radio and 1.33.0013d hboot, flash a Rom!

But I thought, that the most people have the 2.22.23.02 radio, so I only write a guide about 2.22.27.08 radio + 1.33.0013d hboot!
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
That means you dont have a custom recovery.. which also might mean your not rooted.. you should follow the un-root method first and than try this guide from step 1 and you will be all set i promise!
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
Lol thanks! I originally was at 23.02 than i found your guide (thank god) lol so i figured i would put updated guide of it all! Rooting, un rooting i will add your method as well thanks for the info :D
[G1 Android Development] habitat22:
Here is the .apk for my rooting proces:

1. Universal AndRoot 1.6.2 beta

Other version (easy+fast) for step 1

---> No downgrade needed!

1.Root

Download the Universal-AndRoot.apk, put it on your sdcard and install it with a filemanager from market.

Open the app and click on root for Android 1.6!

After, your device is rooted!

2.Recovery

Install "Rom Manager" from market and allow superuser!

Then click on "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and select "HTC Dream/G1"!

After this proces, you are allowed to flash another recovery with the "Rom Manager"

Install RA Recovery 1.7.0!

Follow the steps exactly!! Then everything will work perfect!!
[G1 Android Development] domii:
Perfect Post
[G1 Android Development] dfe002:
I fallowed the steps exactly, and now my phone will not start up, it stays stuck at the G1 logo. I can get to the recovery but nothing works. In the fast boot menu everything is updated but i just am stuck and dont know what else to do.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
what does it say when you boot in fastboot? did you flash a rom? some of the roms i listed in guide take like 10 min on the G1 screen b4 they boot
[G1 Android Development] dfe002:
Its says exactly what its supposed to on step 3 or 4 with the updated radio and all. And yes i tried out one of your roms and let it sit for a good 20 min or so and all it did was bring up the "T-Mobile G1" logo for about 3 minutes and then it would cut off and do it again.

I redid step one and my phone works now but its still running 1.5
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
o ok well how far did you go on step 1.? did you flash recovery? i just want to make sure your recovery is properly working before you try to do anything else.. remember on step 2 you install "radio" first, than

wipe!!

and flash "Spl" and

wipe again

and flash "Danger Spl"!! You need "danger Spl" in order to properly flash radio 2.22.28.25! And on step 3. just make sure you follow every single little detail. How did you do it last time?
[G1 Android Development] dfe002:
did exactly as was stated. Im trying again today i looks like my memory card may of been corrupted
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ooo ok tell me how it goes.. when you have the recovery installed go to repartition your sd and make all the numbers 0 ex.. swap 0mb ext2 0mb.. its like formatting it but you get all the partitions back! than re partition to whatever your preference is. I usually do 128mb swap and 1024 mb ext2, than upgrade to ext3, than upgrade to ext4..
[G1 Android Development] dfe002:
how long should it take to restart after you do the new radio and the danger spl?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
well after you finish step 3. you need to flash a rom via recovery... nothing will happen if you just boot on only pressing power... jus power on into boot loader to check, if everything is correct than power off than reboot via recovery and flash a rom! try froyo by lazslo! i will add the kernel i use with it in a link next to the rom!
[G1 Android Development] dfe002:
oh, gotcha i wasn't flashing a kernel like a dummy.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
well the kernel might not only be the problem.. tell me what happens after you try flashing rom?
[G1 Android Development] test1551:
Thank you

When you talk about copying the files to your sd card on the first post, you are refering to a removable micro sd. Correct?

[G1 Android Development] lbt:
I'm on a European G1, I followed the Cyanogen Wiki to root the device and install CM6 with RA-Dream 1.7.0 and DangerSPL.

Currently there's installed (according to Fastboot):

HBOOT 1.33.2005

CPLD 4

RADIO 2.22.19.261

Question:

Tutorials that advice updating the radio version require Radio 2.22.23.02 installed. Is it a problem if I update from 2.22.19.261? Are there any tutorials for upgrading from 2.22.19.261?

I really don't want to brick this G1 (it has happened before...:rolleyes:).

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
Worked Great! Except........

Thanks for the instructions.

I followed them all the way through and they worked good. My power+camera screen shows exactly what it should.

However........ Now on start up it just sits on the T--Mobile G1 screen.

Is my rom flash bad? should I reflash a particular step? or just flash the rom I was headed for?

edit: I am just going to download the SenseLX 2.5.3 and install it from recovery and see what happens........

Edit: No improvement, it just hangs on the first screen. I can get into recovery and boot loader just fine. everything seems good. just wont load SenseLX or anything else on start up. i let it set for a while and when I came back same screen.

More edit: Did I need to flash a kernel also?
[G1 Android Development] dilwaladoctor:
Nice guide.:D

You can also add these two YouTube videos for visual help to the noobs. These are very detailed and describe whole process step by step. I personally used nothing except these two videos to root my G1 last year.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnQXoKZp_Fc (for downgrading 1.6 to 1.5)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR0HpUVv-BY (for flashing spl-2005 and radio2.22.23.02......instead of cyanogenmod 6, you can flash any other rom that supports the given spl and radio...but if you are in doubt, continue with cyanogen 6):cool:
[G1 Android Development] dilwaladoctor:
1.Add Current G1 radio, spl and recovery info in your signature

2.Is your SD card partitioned? If its not, partition it.

3.Keep swap-size ZERO or 32 maximum for the first boot. You can change it after the phone boots. This is because almost all G1 roms are cyanogen based and usually dont boot on heavy swap.

4.Some Roms come with the kernel and some need the kernel to be flashed separately. Some roms also need Gapps to be flashed. Install these things according to OP of the rom.

5.Some new G1 roms are not flashed correctly with Amon RA 1.7.0 recovery. So you need to have a Clockwork 2.5.0.7 recovery to flash them correctly.
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
The phone didnt ever boot up after fininshing step three of the guide. It appears everything is as needed when I look at my bootloader screen.

1. added the requested info to my signature.

2. I looked up partitioning and apparently amon-RA recovery does it for you if its installed? Isnt that what I installed in step one?

3. I will look into the swap size as well. (dont I have to be able to boot up to change that?

4. the SenseLX doesnt say whether or not it has a kernel, i looked through the thread a bit and couldnt tell.

5. The SenseLX thread mentions using Amon-RA so I think that part is covered.
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
FR_Boot 1.5.7

Hboot 1.33.0013d

Superwipe

Radio 2.22.28.25

Radio 2.22.27.08

Again delete the old files off your sd card and place these files on it!!

1. Boot up into recovery mode, go to flash zip from sd and select Ohsaka superwipe. wait till finish then go to power down!! now boot back up into recovery again.

2. Now do a manual wipe of data and cache, than go to flash zip and select the "

fr remove

" file. let it finish and reboot if required for update to apply.. than do wipe of data and cache again.. (please follow along exactly and wipe data everytime i say to wipe data)..

3. Now flash the radio (2.22.28.25).zip file.. let finish than flash the hboot (1.33.0013d).zip file and let it finish! now power off device!!

Is this red highlighted file an error in step 3 of the instructions? Should it be FR Boot or FR Remove? I used FR Boot as that was the file I put on my SD card. Could this be causing my problems?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
hey sorry i haven't been around to help you but try flashing the fr-remove, than do ohsaka superwipe and power down reboot to recovery than do re partition of sd card 128mb~swap 1024mb~ext4 than try to flash the SenseLX rom by using the files provided on thread.. flash the fr-fecovery, select yes on superwipe than power down device and reboot into recovery... than flash rom and see if it works :D

EDIT: OMG im so sorry im an idiot you were right i had the wrong file link there.. :( but it wasn't anything to brick your device lol just the fr-remove, and i had the fr-boot... thats why you were stuck on boot lol sorry just flash the remove file i fixed the link on step 3... I am very sorry for you wasting your time trying to figure this out..
[G1 Android Development] tackleberry:
Has the apk root method worked well?

G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
I started over twice. :-) the second time I didn't make it through step 2 due to some expiermenting I did. I stopped after step 1 this last time, so I will continue on and try with the fr-remove this time. Thanks for the help. :-) I will report back when I get a minute.

sent from XDA app using darky 9.5
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
after installing the first radio, at the bottom of the recovery screen it says;

Build : RA-dream-v1.7.0 (which seems normal)

Formatting CACHE:... (which doesnt seem normal?)

I will continue on though.

Edit: Failed again, still stuck in the boot mode as before. Followed the instructions to the letter. I almost have them memorized now. :-)

The first step works just fine. And all my recovery and bootloader screens are fine. It just hangs at bootup. Anything I can roll back or do I have to start over for the 4th time?

I started up the phone completely after step 1 just to check and it worked fine. I kind feel like its that radio I flash in step 2 because after that flash the recovery has the odd CACHE:... at the bottom. I waited a while a couple of times because I figured the ... meant it was doing something but it didnt ever change.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
hmm its strange i dont know.. i used this method so many times lol are you flashing both spl's in step 2? and did you re partition the sd card? make sure ext4 for flashing the rom.. if you power on in fastboot and your radio and hboot are updated than it should work fine.. maybe try froyo by laszlo.. do you have gtalk? i can help you though it..

can try this way too...

1.flash superwipe

2. flash mtd removal

3. go to console enter: reboot recovery

4. flash radio press home+back reboot

5. flash hboot.zip and reboot

6. power off and check fastboot to see if radio and hboot are updated..

7. power in recovery mode and flash fr-recovery file from senselx thread select yes on superwipe than reboot to recovery and flash rom..
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
When I power on in fastboot everything is updated. That's what I don't understand. It seems like it should be working. Do you think I should try the lazlo ROM then? I would chat online but I am flashing in my spare time. Painting a room and cooking steaks. :-) any idea on that CACHE:... thing? Is that normal?

edit: Is the Radio 2.22.23.02 neccesary? I am thinking of skipping that in step 2.and just do the 2 spl files and see what happens?

sent from XDA app using darky 9.5
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
nooooo bcuz if you flash danger spl with wrong radio you will brick your device!! lol dont do that... did you try the fr remove?
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
LOL. good thing I just checked back before I did that. I was about to flash the 2 spls in step 2 without the radio. :)

I tried the fr remove with no luck and so I had started over.

Right now I am done with step 1. and everything works just fine.

If I flash the 1.6 update file further down the first post now will that screw it all up and I will have to start over?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yes that will mess it up bcuz its rooted and that is the 1.6 file is the tmobile official update... continue on to step 2 and tell me what happens..
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
LOL. Ok. I will do it right now. Last time I did it I tried to boot up after just the radio and it didnt work. That makes me think the radio is what is causing the issue.
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
Hold on. I just downloaded Titanium Backup and it says I DO NOT have root?

Could that be the issue? And why wouldnt I have it after the first step?

How do I check for sure?

I downloaded Universal Androot and installed it, ran it, and it said successful. Titanium still says I am not rooted. Odd.

I was able to install superuser and busybox so I think maybe TiBu doesnt like Android 1.5?

LOL. Apparently Androot removed my RA recovery and I had to reinstall it.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
lol you are having some crazy issues.. im not sure where to begin.. have you already un-rooted? when you un-root, only flash the 1.5 update.. than on step 1 only get the oi file manager and flash the recovery.. you dont need to downgrade again if your already on 1.5.. than from there flash new radio, than spl, than danger... and so on.. it should work fine.. are you using a G1?
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
I flashed the radio and it went fine. I was able to boot up into the phone afterwards. The baseband shows the 2.22.23.02 so the radio is there.

Next i will flash the 2 spl files.
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
LOL. yes, its a G1. :)

ok, so now after home+power reboot the cyan recovery didnt work. Its back to the ! triangle page and i cant flash the spl zips from that.

I will reinstall the cyan recovery.
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
it does say at the bottom of the screen something about not finding E: cache/recovery.

I wonder if that is related to the formatting CACHE:... that it hangs on after the radio flash?

edit: failed again. I am pretty sure its that cache thing that screwing it up. the battery is dead now so I will figure it out tomorrow.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yeah its something wrong with the recovery... ok so do this in exacct order.. if it dont work than i dont know what it would be...

1.Do exact steps for Un-rooting Method, than flash the stock 1.5 update!

2.boot on device and sign into google, go to market and download 'oi file manager'

3.place 'flashrec' and 'recovery' files on your sd card from step 1 on guide and follow directions for recovery..

4.Now follow the guide exact from Step 2... do everything, radio, spl, Danger spl..

5.Check device stats in Fastboot mode.. if correct than continue on to step 3...

6.Do Steps axactly as posted on Step 3... than check fastboot again.. if stats are correct than you did it right..

7. try to flash another 2708/2825 rom... (froyobylaszlo)

it should work!!! Make sure your sd card is partitioned at 128mb~swap 1024mb~ext4
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
The SD card partitioning, are you refering to the internal or external card? I partitioned using the cyan recovery setting but I am pretty sure that it did the external card since it went from a 2gig card as viewed in properties on the desktop down to less than 1gig. It still works though.

I also think the recovery is not writing to the E: which I assume is the external card? I base that on loosing the recovery mode after flashing anything in Step 2.

Obviously I have screwed up something along the line here. :) Hopefully we can figure it out.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yes the external.. sometimes it causes issues so i recomend re partitioning it and trying the steps again...
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
what do you suggest I repartition it to?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
128mb~swap

1024mb~ext4(this can be any number OVER 512mb :D)
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
I did that once already. I used the numbers in your signature. :) I will try it again though.

I also reflashed all the way up to the G1 spl file. then i reinstalled cyan recovery and flashed the G1 spl. It failed to boot.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ok so where exactly are you stuck again?
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
right after flashing the second radio it will still boot up if I check it. then if I flash the G1 spl and the signature spl it fails to boot. or if I just flash the G1 spl it fails also. so its something with those I am guessing.

And like I mentioned earlier, after I flash the radio with the cyan recovery it stats saying that wierd formating cache thing and looses the recovery and I have to reinstall it.

Its not writing something to some cache file but I looked around with OI file and didnt see anything odd.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yeah i remember seeing that before im pretty sure its ok though because i never remember that causing an issue.. ok well here is the video i used to make this guide.. it tells you how to root from 1.5 and install the radio and spl... than all you have to do is flash the danger spl after!! and follow on to step 3. lol

unroot your device one last time im sorry lol than flash the stock 1.5 update

once you do that watch this video and do what it says..

than when finished come back here to my guide and flash 'Danger Spl'

than continue on to step 3.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR0HpUVv-BY
[G1 Android Development] FireRaider:
Well I finally got it to root and upgrade and still reboot. I ended up doing it through terminal and even then I flashed 4 more times and had to root it twice.

Good thing I am patient. LOL

So now I am running CM6.1, but I want to upgrade the radio. I didnt do any of step 3. is the FR-remove required before flashing a new radio? Because I tried it without and it locked up again.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
FR_remove-xxx.zip is needed when you have installed cutom-mtd and you would like to flash a new radio / spl using recovery. If you flash them using fastboot, it's not needed to flash the FR_remove-xxx.zip first.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
exactly what he said!!!!! (yes if flashing via recovery, no if flashing via fastboot)^^^^^^ lol man i love that guy :D

@AnDiSa- You are the man! I really appreciate all the help! You seem to have an answer to everyone's question :D lol
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
... no, it's not me having the answers. I am only repeating information which is already available somewhere here in the xda threads ;)
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
lol good point.. but you are very resourceful :D Do you have any work of your own? have a rom or anything?
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Look at my signature and you will find a link ... ;)
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ooooooooooo wow ADS-AnDiSa haha how slow am i..? lol cool ill check it out... just released some updates for SenseLX... got a language issue on the test4 release would you be willing to take a look at it?
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Hmmm, I don't think so ... I've not so much time available at the moment and ... I need my G1 as my daily driver ;)
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
