[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Metatronx:
Thats exactly what I did as soon as I got back that was the only way to get root on the phone that I knew of. I did it a few times but I still kept getting stuck on the Tmobile G1 screen when upgrading to any of the differnet mods.

Tried this and unfortunately it didn't work. as for my Phone type, SPL and Radio I have the following :

I'm using DREAM PVT 32b Eng S-OFf

Hboot-1.33.2005 (DREA100000)

Radio-2.22.19.26I

I grabbed the log from my phone for anyone that knows what this stuff means (btw this is right after updating to the newest cyanogen build 3.6.6.
