hi,

I could create a HTC goldcard for my G1 out of the delivered 2GB SanDisk one from T-Mobile GER. It recognizes the DREAMIMG.nbh on the SD card an offers me to flash.

Now my question:

If i do the flash and downgrade my G1 to RC 29 and then be able to root it and finally use tether wifi, i'll not be able to undo all that stuff because there is no german stock dreamimg.nbh with the 1.1. firmware the g1 came with out there, isn't it. so there will be no possibility to submit a warranty claim with the flashed G1?

If i'm right with that, i'll be waiting until the first german *.nbh file comes out or there is a possibility to reset the g1 to factory defaults.
[G1 Android Development] viperbjk:
Yep. Your CID might not be right. Some users were reporting that linux doesn't report the right CID, 1 byte is wrong. Try other ways like using a WM6 device for getting the CID, until we know why linux reports a wrong CID.

Example :

be8b0042059530804732305553445303 Linux

be8b004dc59530804732305553445303 WM6
[G1 Android Development] dirty_:
Eh guys. if you got an G1 at home, running Android, as I assume if you are reading this hread, you can the most esily and the most secure way read your sdcard's cid via the commandline(terminal emulator) on your G1!

cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid > /sdcard/cid.txt

you'll find that theres a cid.txt file on your sdcard when mounting it to your computer.

Reversing the CID before/for generating the goldcard.img is mandatory!

I am not sure about this: After reversing the CID do we have to get two zeros at the beginning of the turned around CID? Do we have to exchange the first two characters (the first bit) with two zeros?

Minor Wine problem with QMAT under Linux

When running QMAT under Linux+Wine you can't choose the HTC model when burning the goldcard. Wine fails to render the drop-down menu somehow.

I only discovered this when looking at QMAT under Windows (on a machine I don't have a license for :()

So this could actually be a factor for people who are trying to create the goldcard under Linux/Wine like me.

Wine from the development branch fixes this. Wine unstable is available here http://www.winehq.org/download/

[....]

SUCCESS!!

What I had done wrong was that when writing the goldcard image using Wine, I wasn't able to chose the HTC device model.

By using Wine 1.1.15~winehq0~ubuntu~8.10, I was able to chose the model (Dream), and got the correct goldcard image.

For a detailed description of what I had to do, see this post:

hi there everyone,

im about to root my german g1 but i was just wondering if i can still use my vodafone sim card with it? or will it be locked like the us versions since ill have an english firmware? i dont wanna be stuck with a phone i cant use...or can i always just do a factory reset and get back to my german firmware?

thanks for helping!

frank
[G1 Android Development] kmetz:
@Frank11:

- You will be able to use it with the vodafone card

- There is no way to go back to the german firmware, and dont expect one soon. For this a DREAIMG.NBH containing the german image would have to be leaked. There is the possibility that german JF versions show up, though.

The best image to flash on a german G1 being used in germany currently is the JFv1.43h ADP1 Holiday, it has all the latest features such as paid apps (only working with an US SIM card), BUT it is not possible to install certain protected apps with it. So your market would not show you everything.

The US RC33-JF is unusable in germany since it contains MyFaves, an application that continuously and unstoppable sends out SMS messages.

Propably you should wait for a current german or UK JF image that 1) allows protected apps to be installed and 2) has no MyFaves. I expect at least the UK one in the next days.

And keep in mind: No way back to stock german. (I'm starting to feel a little uncomfortable about that fact..)
[G1 Android Development] DarkWolve:
Hey guys!

I dont get it. I have a Blackstone. I put the card in the Blackstone, plug it in my computer and open qmat. But when i try to get the ID qmat always freezes and hangs up!

i have Vista 64Bit. do i have to use a x86 System?
[G1 Android Development] Frank11:
thanks @kmetz

isnt the cupcake update going to bring more options to choose different languages including german? isnt that going to be a way to get back to german whenever it finally comes out? just wondering....sorry if i am completely wrong

i guess i will consider your suggestion and wait a little longer for a german or uk version...where can i get that JFv1.43h ADP1 Holiday image from anyway?

thanks again

Can anyone confirm that myfaves actually sens messages when installed

On an european g1? I have a dutch g1 with jf 1.42 rc33.

Where to look for to see if it sens sms tot usa?
[G1 Android Development] kmetz:
I also hope that "cupcake" - or better call it "something like the G2's release firmware state but for the G1" - leads to less differences between the country/cid versions. But we can only rumor on that. One could also say that "cupcake" never comes to the G1, which would be exactly the same kind of rumory.

My bigger fear with using JF builds at the moment is that JesusFreke and the other firmware hackers somewhen in half a year or so may find a way cooler device than the G1 (a G3, whatever), which would then lead to a stop of the stream of new, updated G1 JF builds that come out just after official updates. Not that I expect any kind of long term support from the much respected firmware hackers (I mean.. it's hacked firmware after all), I just want to use my G1 for two years or so, as a power user with root access.

So the ability to jump back onto the german stock firmware train would be a good thing. (If someone has their hands on the HTC repo / a stock german DREAIMG.NBH...)

any way to dump german image?

Hi, is there a way to dump the official german image from the phone now that we have goldcard? Or can it only be used to flash the device?
[G1 Android Development] AION2009:
Hi everyone!

I have been looking to root my phone, german build 123099.

Now I'm bit curious about the "unlocked" phones. I received this one form Germany like week ago and it does work with Finnish service providers out of the box. No unlock code etc required. So how it is if I root the phone via QMAT?

(I will go Linux way because that is so much easier to me than try to find any WinMO device. I have been using DD and **** at work for long time now.)

And another thing I'm trying to find out is how to exactly modify the CID to be the serial of card?

There has been said that it should be reversed, reversed bytewise or the whole CID?

And what about bytes with alphabetic, should they just stay as they are or should I modify them somehow?

My CID seems to be:

035044535530324780507c5cb8008b80

So using it as:

30 05 44 35 55 03 23 74 08 05 c7 c5 8b 00 b8 08 should do the trick?

Installing UK RC7, then RC33 - no Myfaves?

Hello everybody!

I am not entirely sure, but I think I have managed to get rid of myfaves, and still having the recent US firmware. :)

I used UK RC7 to get root, later I flashed the current RC33.

The result was, that I had a broken web'n'walk shortcut (the shortcut was there in RC7), and logcat shows nothing at all from myfaves. I also have no myfaves/web'n'walk icon in the menu.

So it seems that a full flash of the UK firmware that is then later replaced by an update of the US firmware lets you have US firmware without the myfaves crap.

This way you can have full market access without having to pay a fortune for sms you never intended to send.

Oh, and btw, I tried to send a SMS manually to the myfaves number (453) from the German E-Plus network, and it failed.

So it seems that that at least for German E-Plus users there is no risk of having to pay for the sms.

I might have overlooked something in logcat, so don't take my word for this, but I think this might be a way to have US firmware without myfaves.

*edit: Removed unnecessary quote*

Hm, just tried to downgrade my German G1 using this howto, I tried QMAT 4.21 and 4.30 Shareware and tried to enter the CID of the 2GB SD Card delivered with the G1 and a 1 GB SD card bought separately. I've read the SanDIsk has problems (both cards were Sandisk) - does the unregistered QMAT version create stale image files, when dumping the GoldCard to Hard Disk?

I'm willing to spend money on either of those (new card, full QMAT) , but am not quite sure, what's more promising (ok QMAT, morally :-) ) - could anyone give me a hint?

*edit:* only saw after Posting: same error output as #168, would also be happy for a hint, only I dd'ed the Image to /dev/sdb not sdb1
[G1 Android Development] Francisco00:
It looks like you are getting it wrong when generating the goldcard image.

Double check the CID.

Make sure you inverted it before trying to generate the goldcard.

If you are running QMAT from Linux, make sure you are using a version of Wine that allows you to select the correct model ("Dream") while generating the goldcard. I had to download the unstable version of Wine (directly from Wine) to get that to work in Ubuntu.

This is where I explain the problem I had with Wine

Does this all work also for an European G1 with RC9 ??

[G1 Android Development] bassbox:

[G1 Android Development] oLRi:
Hi Everybody,

Does it also work with a european G1, with RC9 AND without using a windows mobile device?

I've read a lot about this topic and some users reported that you can read the CID thourgh G1's telnet application (cat /sys/class .... ) BUT they also reported that maybe one bit in this string is wrong.

So, before spending 20 bucks for nothing: Is it possible, to do the hole magic WITHOUT Windows Mobile?

The background: I've got a Windows Mobile 2003 PDA with a SD Slot. I've also tried reading the CID via this device, a MicroSD-to-SD-Adapter and Qmat, but it reports a COMPLETE different CID as the G1 Terminal (when i say: COMPLETE different, i mean COMPLETE, not only "not reversed" or some bits wrong). And: Yes, the Device is application unlocked. :-)
[G1 Android Development] pumuckl:
Unfortunately, it seems this isn't true! :(

I saw in adb logcat today that myfaves tried to send a SMS to 72059.

When I tried to manually send a SMS to that number, the title of the SMS changed to MyFaves, which means that the number was "resolved" to a contact (not that I have a MyFaves contact).

Luckily, the SMS failed!

I rooted without a WM device, just using the experimental version of wine, and following the guide that is linked in the first post. The only thing I had to do was to purchase QMAT.

Before upgrading to the experimental version of Wine, the list of devices was empty in Goldcard generation dialog.

I'm pretty sure it will work for you too, just give it a try. The 20€ are totally worth it, IMO.

I already have Debian running, Wifi-tethering is so easy it's ridiculous, and I can make screenshots and flash custom boot images whenever I like.

The next step will be to move all my apps to SD.

I would root my phone again any time!

I used the G1 console to get my CID, and it worked without any problems. I think the only reason that the guide tells you to use Linux is dd.

QMAT will run at least as good in Windows as in Wine, and you might be able to use either cygwin dd or a dd version for Windows.

I haven't tried this, though.

Here is a discussion about dd under cygwin:

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2000-08/msg00885.html

And here something that is supposed to be dd for Windows:

Might work too.

[G1 Android Development] Manfred2000:
So far as i know it´s like following:

You need a goldcard-image on your sd-card to downgrade to RC7

Therefore you need QMAT to create such a image

If you have QMAT4.24 you need a WM-Device

If you have full version QMAT4.3 you dont need this devide

Then with a goldcard image on your sd-card you can downgrade and get root, afterwards you can install a JesusFreke Build and upgrade again to RC9

I have ordered a full version of qmat4.3, so when i got it i will write another manual....
