Looking forward to flashing my first Rom for my E4GT, I've held off for a long time, but having used Task & Phantom's In Paris tab 10.1 Rom, and loving it I am ready to give this a go.

I was upgrading my G1's RC29 to GingerYoshi and came upon this problem in the install process.

fastboot flash hboot hboot-1.33.0013d.img

sending 'hboot' (512 KB)... OKAY

writing 'hboot'... FAILED (remote: partition does not exist)

I found this in the forums as a solution but couldn't comment on it because I have less than 10 posts....so here's my first. The solution below totally works. A big "Thank you, thank you" to lbcoder.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=479687&page=2

That is because the 0.95.x000 SPL's do not have the hboot partition mapped.

You need to do one of two things;

1) Recovery-update to 1.33.2003 (note the "3". This is NOT a "5".) -- the "2003" spl has the hboot partition mapped.

2) ERASE your recovery partition (and test that it is erased by trying to boot into recovery -- it should boot into FASTBOOT), and then recovery-update to whatever SPL you prefer. I know, this sounds impossible -- just how do you boot recovery if your recovery is empty? By "fastboot boot recovery.img".

Either of these approaches should be fine.

[G1 General] pol-007:

but I dont have a rom that work..all the roms I have dont work...is there any rom to work with the radio and spl above?..will be good..any url

dont tell me to flash again newer spl ( the radio I accept but the spl is the preoblems))..
[G1 General] demkantor:
I guess I'm still not following fully, but each ROM has specific requirements, some one radio/SPL and some another. You need to match your ROM or at least kernel to your radio/SPL

If you boot to bootloader and write down everything from that screen I can suggest a ROM or two that will work
[G1 General] pol-007:
Helpppppppp¡¡¡¡¡

I dont know how todo...this phone bkreak my head ...I rty again ,again ..and nohting nhothig work....THE ONLY I WANT IS A CUSTOM FUKER ROM..ESPECIALY IF GINGERBREAD :: but i try the solution here ( hboot partition does'nt exit) but i cant solve too this problem,,I flash the spl 2003 but thy brik my phone

[G1 General] demkantor:
That info is from bootloader screen, this is good now I know your next steps

Can you boot to recovery and let me know which one you have? The one you want is Amon_ra1.7

After you have this you will need to update your radio then SPL, once done flash a ROM (like cm5) to test. After this you need to flash another radio then SPL and then you can flash a gingerbread ROM.

So first we need to confirmed which recovery you have....

By the way, this link has full instructions

when I try to install spl from fastboot or terminal emulator , they say me( error hboot partition doesn't exist) I tryed install teh solution here in this post ( flash 203 spl) but they brick again the phoen

and thas all .whats is tthe real solution for this
[G1 General] demkantor:
Well from your pics I'm guessing you flashed a clockwork recovery, you should try amonra, use the same flash_image method to get this.

Once you have this recovery installed boot to it and there is where you flash the first radio.zip and then the hard/danger SPL.zip

Once this is done you can boot to bootloader to confirm which radio and SPL you are on, if all is good you then can either boot to recovery and flash a compatible ROM (like cm5) or if you want something newer you then need to another radio and SPL with fastboot in order to get an 'updated' ROM

As for fastboot not working, this is either an error in the command (can't say unless you post input/output from cmd/terminal) or you don't have access to fastboot commands with current bootloader.
[G1 General] pol-007:
I HAVE AMOn RA ... I only change but yes i flash to amonra ,,I use amonra ..I used the clock recovery beacuse it have the option to navigate in the sd card..(amno ra does not have that..)

ok look..whaterever radio work..but with the only spl work is te hard spl signed..and when I go into fastboot the screen is white and the fastboot work fine ,the phone not shut down,,that is evidence that work ,,gooodd..

but only that..radio( 23.02,,27.08,) and (hard spl) thast all ,, now i want a rom that work with this ,,there are any rom?? because I can't flash any radio or any spl in .img format BEACUSE I get: hboot partition does not exist ....

roms please

hnote: the cm5 require danger spl,,mmm can cm5 wok with "hard spl signed" ??
[G1 General] demkantor:
Danger SPL is the same as hard SPL, just different words for the .2500 SPL (can't recall the exact # its been a while)

If you want help getting fastboot to work you will need to copy and paste here all input/output from terminal/cmd, the error you are getting is caused by typing in the wrong command or not have elevated privileges, if you want further help just do these quick simple things

Write down everything that is currently on bootloader (yes the white screen with the androids on skateboards, write down word for word)

Then we can make sure which radio and SPL to download through fastboot next, and when you do this copy and paste all input/output here
[G1 General] pol-007:
ok

danger spl is the same as hard spl hee¡¡ good..

well I now about comands, su #

ok I have the radio 22.22.23.02 and hard spl.

this is I have in the fastboot screen:

DREAM100 pvt 32b

HSPLD 10.95.3000

CPLD-4

RADIO-2.22.23.02

oct 20 2008

FASTBOOT or SERIAL 10 and the androis are there in skateboards,,I wana psuh pictures here but the internet is bad..

so...wich is the next step...
[G1 General] demkantor:
OK, current radio is good but you have the old hard SPL, you need the .2003 or .2005

Check the link I sent you earlier for downloads or if you need I can get you a link

So your next step is to change to one of these two SPLs
[G1 General] pol-007:
ok I get it...

I has benn dowloaded..so i goin to try

I wana show you some pictures..this pictures are before..

that dastboot screen is the only boot option i have when the phone be brick....and look the other picture is the error when I try to flash IMG files

NO WORK:: THE PHONE HAS BRIKED AGAIN::: if I CAn only have the hboot partition..I think thas is the big problem but there is no sulotion anywhere...so what I can do??
[G1 General] demkantor:
You can't use a terminal emulator to flash the bootloader (hboot bootloader and SPL are the same term here) you must flash through fastboot

I don't know what you mean when you say bricked, a bricked phone is one that won't turn on at all, no recovery, no bootloader, no os, no anything, only recoverable by JTAG

With the old hard SPL you need flash the .2003 or 2005 through recovery as you don't have fastboot options
[G1 General] pol-007:
YES that phone has been briked as 7 or 9 or 10 times

but i goin it back wen It briked,,when i try to power up..they only power up and show the white screen and quicly shut down (has millisecons) .thats when I try to enter in recovery they do again the same (white screen and quicly shut down) ..in fastboot again the same too...thats is the brick...but I found a tip I hold the camera button for large time (like 10 minutes or more) and they in rare time get it on fastboot but the other fastboot ( to recovery the phone flashing DREAM.IMG )..

I FOUND A MISTAKES WHEN I have that brik..

.I haved that brick recently ,but I press ( home+menu+power without releasing the buttons ) and from the recovery briked (yes the recovery are briked too) the phone restart and power up without the briked screen ,,it go into g1 logo...so right now I'm goin to try flash the radio,spl,spl again etc,etc.. and if it brick again I now what to do...maybe skip that brick and enter directly to the phone..
[G1 General] demkantor:
Well if you flash the dreaming.nbh and go back to android 1.0 then just use flash_image in a telnet to install amonra

Then flash appropriate radio from recovery

Then flash .2003 SPL or .2005

From here you will have fastboot commands and can upgrade to ezterrys 2708+ update
[G1 General] pol-007:
HEY MEN FINALY I FOUND A SOLUTION::

not ot all but yes it work...

ok look my steps:

from the original rom android 1.0 ( no moded)

1- you need root acces (super one click and bypass google method)

2-install amon RA recovery--is easy

3-from recovery RA flash the radio 23.02

4-now wihtout reset flash the hardspl (the old you say I have)

5-you are into recovery again,so flash the spl 2003....when it finish NOT REBOOT,,DONT GET OUT FROM RECOVERY..sorry the big words

6-now from there flash: update-cm-5.0.8-DS-signed :that is the rom YOU RECOMEND ME::BY THE WAY THANKS

7-when it finish .rebbot..but when I rebbot the phone be briked..I told you remenber (the white screen show only milliseconsd and the phone quicly shutdown..but now I have the solution..

8-with the phone off go into recovery ( there in recovery I see only one option and is clear storage....well DON'T CLEAR) press SEND+MENU+POWER without release the keys..and wait for the phone power up..REMENBER DON'T RELEASE THE KEYS and thats all you will see the G1 BOOT SCREEN logo....at this you can release the kes UFFF ..THIS IS A MISTAKE ..BUT WORK YEA:.

the only problem is when you powerup the phone you neerd to do this method..(send+menu+power at the same time) this is awful but from weeks of battle I think this is the best way I see in this phone..

hey men thanks for your help ...............can I update to cyanogenmod 6 or 7 ? or another from OTA from this phone you know wifi 3g etc..???

here are some pictures from my new phone updated...

[G1 General] demkantor:
For cm5 you also need to download gapps

To get the latest for the g1 (gingerbread) you need to further update radio and SPL, what do you currently have if you boot to bootloader?
[G1 General] pol-007:
I'm sorry I dont understand ...you say if i can boot into boot loader?? if is that no.. right now the phone has briked (otherwise I can't boot into bootloader,recovery and power normaly the phone ) only with the bypass mistake if it can called thereby..i mentioned..

but how I sayed I can use the phone with trhat bypass method..

so..that rom cm5 i see have updates or upgrades something like that...after i goin to try the cm6 or 7 but nao i gonna use this rom cm5 has you give me...

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjdmobile:
I have settled on CM7.1 as what appears to be my most stable ROM to use for most things. It's fast, has nifty mods that I don't find in Sense roms. What is missing is 720p recording. I have searched and found threads wondering if it's coming, but nothing new since last Spring.

I have used LGcamera on the Sense roms with no problem setting to 720p. Doing so in CM7.1 leads to the app crashing. Is this because something in the Kernel or camera driver barfs when trying to use this res?

Is there another camera app that is capable of 720p, or do I need to go back to one of the Sense roms for this?

Many thanks,

TJD

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosdos4790:
Plug the phone into your computer, turn the phone off. While still plugged in boot into fastboot and you should hear your computer make the sound it makes when you normally plug your phone in. Unplug the phone and it should make another sound. Finally plug the phone back in and it should make said noise, click reboot and it should be able to connect. I don't know what causes this but it's happened to me about 3 times and everytime iv done these steps to fix it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BlueGoldAce:
There is more to it than who can open the applications faster, etc.

I owe a epic 4g touch, so I am partial towards this device. That being said, the iphone 4s was neck and neck with it, and possible as fast if you account for the longer animations.

The iphone 4s processor is clocked way lower than the gs2....it is trade off for battery life. While samsung was worried about being the faster android first and foremost...it appears that apple knew their device was more than fast enough...so they upped the battery life.

Sadly, there is no comparison between the graphic chips in these two phones. The iphone 4s blows away the mal 400...and is only bested by the high clocked version in the ipad 2.

The screen on the gs2 is big and beautiful...while the clarity is better on the iphone 4s thanks to the pixel density (this is true...not in the same way that the evo3d owners were claiming their screen was better...it is not...I just sold my evo3d....apple has a great screen here). So it comes down between big and beautiful...vs smaller and clear while still pretty.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BlueGoldAce:

I know which section it is....i owe the phone.

Our phone has had it share of problems, as does most phones. Is it that hard to see the point I am making.

I love the epic 4g touch...amazing phone. Just to make that clear. But that doesn't mean one can't be unbiased and not act like a fanboy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisnosleep:
Yep, clear as mud. Did you look around at all before starting this thread? As was already pointed out, there have already been plenty of these type of posts in this section.

That article has nothing to do with this phone no matter how similar you think it is. And there is a SGII section that it would be fine for posting in.

If you're looking to create a new discussion on the iphone topic, you're not, it's been beat to death and everyone is tired of them. You like the phone? Great, go get one. You can join MartyLK and his quest to win XDA over and all become crapple fanboys. Check out his argument in the general section, or every other thread that is crapple vs. anything.

If you read it, it should be evident that I was not promoting the iPhone or the galaxy s2 . I really not sure I understand the argument against my post. Maybe you didn't read it? Never the less....enough of the bs....I feel like this forum is full of children.

I own the phone....and don't give a damn about what phone Is better because I thoroughly enjoy the epic touch. But again....everyone's response here is odd...and pitiful to be honest.

Anyway, take care.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisnosleep:
Sorry about that, I was in a hurry and at work. I could have sworn I saw your name as the OP.

Anyway, show me a side by side of the E4GT and the iJunk and that's fine. But what point is there putting the SGII in this section?

And as far as people who love the iJunk so much, the majority are paid by crapple to be fanboys. They either don't want to lose the sponsorship, are getting perks, have some kind of vested interest or otherwise in crapple. I just haven't seen an unbiased review on any of crapples products. Here's a fact about biased supposedly unbiased reporting: http://www.computerworld.com/s/arti...se_the_smartphone_IQ_once_again?taxonomyId=15

Read on down to paragraph 4 of that article. "A new antenna design addresses notorious dropped-call problems that plagued iPhone 4." I bet when he was reviewing the iJunk 4 he never mentioned that it was plagued with anything, ESPECIALLY dropped calls. They're all a bunch of phony, fake, biased and paid for reviews that lead smart, non tech savvy, people into buying crap.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
dude you gotta realize how annoying it is to see the same threads over and over and over. A quick search of iphone4s vs et4g would have yielded you a handful of threads already open about the same topic. Anyone who has any type of forum etiquitte knows to search before posting, on top of that, the OP picked the sorest topic to post about. iPhone vs anything does nothing but turn into a flame war ending with name calling. Every forum...every thread.
