[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maruutah:
Future reference ^-^

In case you encounter this problem in the future, cause it can happen with flashing new roms if you skip a step:

You're only bricked if you are stuck at the G1 boot screen but can't get into recovery or fastboot, adb or anything. In cases where you can still get to other phone options to start over, rest assured your phone does still work, just need to step back and figure it out, which you did in this case with a little help ^-^ First few times doing anything to my phone, I went into panic mode a couple of times thinking I bricked until I read around and found out otherwise.

Just in case you didn't know these things, if you did, well, hope it was a nice read? ^-^
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
Well... if you actually purchased a dev phone it should not be sim locked.

Technically... after the rooting process, we all have dev phones with the exception of the sim lock.

So... what SPL are you using?

What ROM are you trying to install? Some roms you should consider partitioning your sdcard.

What radio do you have?

First thing is first.

Get the 1.4 recovery if you haven't done so already. 1.4 Recovery

Because this allows you to select any .zip file without having to rename it to update.zip. This saves on confusion so you don't try flashing a spl (like danger spl )before a radio (could brick your phone).

Second

You need the 1.5 radio to use cupcake. 2.22.19.26I

Third

Consider an spl. You have 4 choices. HARDSPL (Recommended), Eng SPL (what the dev phone defaults with.. skateboarding androids), the standard spl (nondev) and Danger SPL (risk bricking but worth it because you have more memory for your ROMs and can try HERO builds).

Fouth

Find your rom. NOTE: Read each post carefully! If it says you need a specific spl then get it! Otherwise it won't work. Some require the Danger SPL. If you chose a JF rom then you should be alright and don't even need to partition your card and it will work just like the OTA release. Some (such as Cyanogens 3.9.7) are experiemental and are not recommended for noobs.

Fifth (and probably the most important)

ALWAYS BACKUP WITH NANDROID!!!

In the event that you think that you've bricked your phone. I would say that there is a 90% chance that you didn't. As long as you have a nandroid backup and can get to the bootloader then you still have a phone. Just make sure the fastboot.exe file is in your sytem32 directory of your computer. Open CMD and cd to your fastboot backups saved on your computer. Simply

fastboot flash boot boot.img <enter>,

fastboot flash system system.img <enter>,

fastboot flash userdata data.img <enter>

fastboot reboot <enter>

and you should be back to where you were immediately after the point you backed up. Think of it as a system restore for Windows. It couldn't hurt to have a few backups stored.

If you have any questions or problems include information for us to read in a single post and edit as necessary.

Example:

AT&T

Cyanogen 3.9.7 Rom

Recovery 1.4

HARD SPL

Radio 2.22.19.26l

8GB class 4 sd card (7gb fat32/900mb ext3/100mb swap)

Theme version if any.

That way we know what we are working with. ;)

Happy flashing.

rest assured i was in panic mode yesterday. but honestly the only thing i could really do was just step back for a while, meaning get some rest tackle it with a clean head. its frustrating for sure. this one guy tho who posted in the brick think tank thread...just cuz he couldnt figure things out in an hour he got pissed and started screaming waste of time this that and the other. total BI$CH! I was like whoa. I was at that point too. but Im not tryna be that guy.

Now, if could just figure out if i have to start from scratch, i just might be able to get my phone working again in time fro me to go to work tmrw morning.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorfugazi:
So... what SPL are you using?

the hard SPL found here

What ROM are you trying to install?

Well i was trying to follow suggestion on something simple, like one of the early jesusfreke's. if i can step it up sure why not. but i'll pass on the partitioned sdcard setup for now.

actually I'll run with JesusFreke JFv1.51 US CRB43

What radio do you have?

radio number listed in my previous post.

Hey thanks by the way for taking the time out of your day to respond to this. i know u guys get your fair share of spazmiesters, so i appreciate it totally.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorfugazi:
after doing research it seems that all the current roms require partitioning. or is that optional just for running apps to sd?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jad011:
partitioning is optional of apps2sd for preformance. some like myself have three partitions, the third being for a linux swap
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorfugazi:
Ok ive final decided on the dudes cupcake 101. the ? i have now is do i start from scratch. im kind of in limbo as i'm stuck on the bootloader. if remember correctly i got half way thru the root process and it went down hill from there.

TMobile

RC29 / previously Dev 1

Recovery 1.4

HARD SPL

Radio currently 1.22.12.29 / trying to get to 2.22.19.26l

4gb card

(hope i did that right)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wahookasan:
Hey Doc, if I'm not mistaken (other guys correct me if I'm wrong), if all, and I mean

ALL

you have is a boot loader (AKA SPL. ie// skating androids or colored bars) you need to reflash dreaimg.nbh to get a system back.

This ALSO flashes your SPL and RADIO back to default so reflash your radio and SPL afterward. (IN THAT ORDER I HOPE)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] innerspace:
Binary100100 is a gentleman and a scholar

nicely written response binary.

I can't stress enough how helpful it is to have the sdk working on a computer when flashing new roms. Get ADB working, it'll save you a ton of headaches.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
Thank you! I do what I can. :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
To be honest... I'm scratching my head. I truthfully dunno. I have only used the dreaimg.nbh file to get root the first time. I immediately threw on the JF Recovery and ENG bootloader. With constant (and redundant) backups if I ever got stuck, I just used fastboot to flash back. Now with Cyan's 1.4 recovery it's even easier. I do know from experience that the nandroid backups do NOT backup the spl. I discovered this when I decided to gamble with the Danger SPL. I had the Cyanogen rom, Eng bootloader and current radio with the 1.4 recovery. I backed everything up, stored it to my computer, plugged it into ddms.bat to logcat in case of problems, booted to recovery, updated the new spl and attempted to restore back with fastboot. It did not work. But I simply used the rom file to update and everything was still there. No wipe needed or anything.

So if you do a backup it saves ONLY the system, data, boot and recovery (plus other minor things such as cache). The spl, radio, splash screens are not touched. So in theory you could possibly brick your phone if you attempted to restore to a rom that didn't have the appropriate radio after you installed the danger spl. But who wants to do that!?!? LOL.

The dreaimg.nbh file is very possibly going to revert everything back to stock. If it doesn't revert the spl back you could be in for some trouble. Because if you have the danger spl then in theory you may end up with a brick because it will be reverting the phone to an older and incompatible radio. But that's just my theory. So unless someone risks it and proves me wrong then I wouldn't risk using the dreaimg.nbh file with the danger spl. Any other spl should be alright.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
I'm glad that it all worked out for you.

Please remember to edit the title to your thread by adding a [solved] or something similar so that other readers will know that you no longer require assistance. Remember to keep backups with nandroid, experiment and always search for answers before posting a new question. Odds are your question(s), whatever they may be, have been asked and answered before and instead of waiting for a response... you can just read the answer(s) that have already been provided.

Happy flashing! ;)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] strucon:
- The ALBUM from MEGA is very fast better then all previous version, but can’t zoom, only with double tap max zoom/unzoom. We can’t use this album because we don’t have zoom-bar.

(Also the rotation doesn’t work)

- The CAMERA from MEGA more complex, but no zooming probable work only with zoom-bar. (The MEGA have fixed-focus camera so probable impossible to adapt for Polaris)

Is possible to be used the MEGA zoom-bar for scrolling; zooming also in other programs (like IE; Opera)

With some trick and the HTC Mega packages, not possible to simulate the MEGA zoom-bar with the POLARIS navigation wheel?

One little program which looking the navigation wheel actions, and writing the movements results in the zoom-bar’s registry.

This is also for other software from TP2, Diamond2, not only from MEGA.

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] zewl23:
NICE idea, almost every new rom, have problem with that, because of absent of the yooming bar, so you have problem with new opera builds and album too, friend have HD and he can yoom only by tapping the screen, but thats all...

So who can do that? :-D
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] DD_:
Hm i'm using 3lit3 VIII rom and Opera 9.5 build 15954 and my wheel is working for zooming and unzooming like that zoom bar.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] strucon:
Of course, in 3lit3 VIII using old software everything are ok.

But With the latest packages is different thing (From Mega; TP2; Diamond2 maybe will be more in time). I updated the first post, I hope now I’m more explicit.
[General Questions and Answers] Evervoid:
Hey,

I'm relatively new to the android scene but after researching phones for the last few days and looking into the apps and the projected path of the system I've decided to go with an android phone.

I currently live in the USA and would like some guidance as to what I phone I should get. I am on T-Mobile's service as well. What I'm looking for is a phone that will last me for about 2 years, or a year and a half at least. I'm not a huge fan of the G1's keyboard so I'm thinking of stay away from it but if it's immensely better then I'll reconsider.

I'm definitely a huge texter and web browser. I was originally thinking of getting the HTC Hero however I learned that it only supports 2g networking and that is too slow to be of use. Is there any way to get a flash rom or application of the mytouch as of now? I know there are Hero rom's but I'm unsure if they can also view flash in the browser.

My main question is, is there a phone which is flash enabled and could be projected as working for the next 2 years?

Thank you,

Evervoid

I'm using iconsoft phonex recently. I like the software and interface but the only problem is that the hardware keypad doesn't work with iconsoft dialer. The hard keypad work once in a while and it's hit and miss. Just wonder if there is anyway to fix this?
[General Questions and Answers] gboulware:
I have an unlocked Fuze using T-mobile. Upgraded to new HTC ROM 5.11.502.2 WWE. Bypassed AT&T bloat, reloaded all themes/fonts/icons/apps. Now when I slide out to use the hard keyboard and the screen goes to landscape, there are white blocks where the icons should be and also lower menu bar. Still can access programs if you know what you're touching. Then upon closing keyboard screen freezes on landscape, then when it returns to portrait the white blocks/missing icons from the landscape mode are still there. Pressing "home" gets no reaction, but once the device goes to sleep and you wake it up, TF3D today home screen is normal and all functions.

I am noob-ish, and don't have a screen shot app, but will find one if necessary.

Thanks!

Hi there... im pleased with myself for having dumped the stock ROM (4 Raws) and then going through the HSPL, which i checked is good!!
