found this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=509248

use adb shell

also i see you deleted recovery installed new recovery removed system then you tried to install boot

did you try to install system first before both recovery and boot

i'm no expert lol

found some other stuff

How to restore from your backup file

1. Download one of the above signed SPL updates and rename it to update.zip

2. Copy update.zip to the root of your SD-card

3. Copy the Nandroid backup files data.img, system.img, and boot.img from your SD card to the folder C:\Android.

4. booting your Magic into recovery model

5. select [Alt + S] – Apply sdcard:update.zip

6. select [Home + Back] – reboot system now

7. After reboot it will update upgrade/downgrade your SPL version, then power off your Magic again

8. Push “Back” + “Power” to HBOOT model

9. double check your SPL version is upgrate/downgrate

10. Plug the USB cord back into your phone. The screen on your phone should say fastboot.

12. Press start, go to run and type cmd (If you are on Vista just type cmd in the search box and hit enter). The command prompt will pop up.

13. Type cd C:\android

11. then enter the following commands C:\android >

fastboot erase system -w

fastboot erase boot

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot

12. After reboot your Magic, it need about 2-5 min to restore

13. then a band new original Android 1.5 is restored
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
Yes i have tried that, The problem is the boot.img. I cant flash it! Nandroid restore fails due to boot.img (cannot be flushed!) Thanks for the speed yresponse but still no joy :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Amon_RA:
Did you follow ALL steps while rooting your 32B?

I'm almost 100% sure that you are using your 32B with a 32A radio and rom, right? Complete the rooting by following the "Revert to 32B Radio and ROM" exactly to the letter in this thread. Do not try to do something else or you'll brick it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
i followed all steps apart from using the gold card as i couldnt make one :( and reverted back to 32B using your steps. I also did it all again but using flashrec.apk?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] shadow_empire1:
try this flashrec.

worked for my 32A

http://zenthought.org/content/project/flashrec
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
Done the flashrec thing, Quite a few times now :( i have a feeling as it was repaired by htc and sent back they have made it so the boot.img cannot be written in any way, If i use a friends nandbackup of hero it fails (not that it says so) and just keeps on the splash screen untill the phone becomes so hot it switches off! Giving up on this, Gone back to standard (rooted) rom and will await the sense update (fingers crossed)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
Stil lthe same problem...although it WILL let me flash sapphire boot just not a modified boot see here....

First flashed boot.img is the google ion boot off of the htc site

Second is the tattoo boot.img modified for the sapphire. Any ideas?

Anyone know where i can get the Google Ion hboot from? just wanna try one more thing before i give up!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] X-i-phoner:
Have you posted this in Dream Q&A? That forum is way more active and there is alot more knowlege on things like this. Maybe send David1077 a PM. I feel bad because I have looked at your post for quite a few weeks now with little help. Good luck
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
i would but am afraid of a ban for posting in wrong forums,ive already done that lots!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
somprogress

seems lile i can fastboot boot the img but it just loops at the boot screen?as i say donut roms work fine but ANY sense ui fail at line 92

Right im now offering £25 if anyone can get sense ui working on my phone.any info they need i will give!

http://www.4shared.com/file/143324302/e942c9d8/boot.html

not to sure what your asking for but this is a boot.img from my signed-google_ion-img-14721

have you looked here iknow you would of but just in-case

http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html

my original boot.img

http://www.4shared.com/file/143325952/211edf2e/_2__boot.html

this one is from inside the MLIGN-MagicV1.0-FINAL rom

http://www.4shared.com/file/143326459/aca13a1b/_3__boot.html
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
the problem is i cant write the boot img in any way.Only original boot.img files not any that are modified.

Its the HBOOT i need to try, But thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sitimber:
so what is the hboot?

what are you excactly asking for
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
The hboot is the spl, im asking for the dev one as its naturally enabled for fastboot therefore im trying to trick my phone to make it think its the dev phone (Google ion) hopefully bypassing the "REMOTE: image update error'' when writing boot.img
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sitimber:
have you tried the one i'm on Engineering SPL 1.33.2004 by Crios

Engineering SPL 1.33.2004 by Crios is actually a hex-edit of SPL 1.33.2005 to fool updates.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
Yes i have tried all the spl's from this thread with no joy all say the same thing.Just an update, i cant flash any of cyanogens roms that use the new bfs kernel but i can flash his old roms
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sitimber:
i know i'm missing something

i'm no way near a dev just trying to help

you seem to know abit more than me

a few questions

1 can you boot to power+home or power+back

2 have you tried to update by the zip file and not the .img file

3 what recovery rom you have

4 have you gone grey yet
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
1 everything boots fine, ive managed to boot up a sense ui rom too by changing the boot.img i just cant use bfs kernels

2 yes i have and thats where i get write_raw_image:BOOT failure

3 i am using amon ra 123g

4 Yes i have,actually my fringe has pretty much gone totally grey :'(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] iPhone iWing:
hey bro did you ever just flash the main system.img for google ion?

fastboot flash system.img -w

then flash boot.img

fastboot flahs boot.img

this should work without a hitch. just get the raw upate and use the .img's. i see you did boot a sense rom. what was your total goal? to boot or to flasha 1.6 root rom??
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bonesy:
Yea i have mate, I just cant use boot.img off BFS kernel roms
[Touch CDMA General] zenulator:
Uploaded the TMobile Pulse Alpha Preview to vogue-hero. Use the zImage temp hack also up. Thanks to pmos69 for the battery temp hack. I haven't had time to really mess with it besides getting it running. So it's up to you guys to make it work better. It works with a res of 480x320 lcd.density=160. Camera/Calls/SMS/Data should all work. Haven't tried gps or bluetooth. This is pre alpha as far as I'm concerned so test it out drop some feed back and maybe some of you can provide fixes and new images.
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
sounds good any idea what the servo search is that keeps f/cing
[Touch CDMA General] zenulator:
Servo search is removed in the beta builds. I have it running very smooth with no force closes and it's using a custom kernel to bypass the temp warnings.
[Touch CDMA General] KERKEDAGAIN:
holerrrrrrr!!!!
[Touch CDMA General] silex:
Can't wait to see this in action.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
servo search is like a universal search type application. Not worth the ram/cpu usage even when it does work.

you guys will really like this build, it's pretty much a drop in replacement on the vogue.
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
Oh man... this is sounding better and better... sdcard is clean and I'm ready - drop it anytime :D
[Touch CDMA General] aross6:
waiting... waiting... pAAAAAAATIENTlllllyyyyyyyyy ;)
[Touch CDMA General] fireshaper:
Wake me when it's ready. Time for bed on my side of the globe.
[Touch CDMA General] zenulator:
Just waiting for mssmision to do some fixes......
[Touch CDMA General] TheKartus:
What resolution am i running with this? Is the Alpha the one with msmissions fixes or is another coming?
[Touch CDMA General] zenulator:
its up to him if he wants to release it or not. this was the one i did when it first came out. it's pretty much untouched i did just enough to get it running half way descent. you don't need any special files besides the zImage with the temp hack and latest basefiles. I ran it a 480x320 aka the hero resolution.
[Touch CDMA General] moekind:
Everything works fine, pretty impressed so far!

Where is the calibration tool by SRWalter?
[Touch CDMA General] zenulator:
pull it from one of the other builds and install it....:p
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
I can't seem to boot - stuck in HaRET - same issue I have with all of the new zimage's...

on Bell Vogue.
[Touch CDMA General] zenulator:
can't help you with that. i'm using the files i uploaded with no problem. i am using an older rootfs but that shouldn't matter because it boots with the same files as ion. maybe you have a corrupt file somewhere?
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
I'm trying the latest basefiles from pmos with this zimage and system.sqsh... you're right - if it's working for most people except me then it has to be something on my card... dang... I'll try another card.
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
just re-dload the basefiles and try again
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
Thanks buddy - always a sound suggestion. I did just that and checked my sdcard for errors, copied everything back on and am now booting.

cheers.
[Touch CDMA General] bug666:
I get an error when trying to boot the alpha.

pmem: could not find allocation for map
[Touch CDMA General] pmos69:
use a resolution of 320x480
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
My wife has exactly the same issue on her vogue. Tried it with my memory card in her phone and it worked though. Even though we have an identical memory card...

You're gonna have to try a different memory card.
[Touch CDMA General] joannerve:
How to power off. I can not
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
reset button.

sorry but the end button isn't like the power button in previous builds.
[Touch CDMA General] natefish:
Pulse loaded great for me, but then randomly restarted after running for several minutes. Using latest base files and the custom zImage. Am I doing something wrong?
[Touch CDMA General] pmos69:
Remember it's still alpha/beta.

Hopefully mssmission can add a little magic to it...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
NOTE:

Information in this threat may no longer be as crucial as it was back in Oct 8, when phone was still unavailable for non-business customers. Since Tilt2 was released today, Oct 18, officially, make sure you explore all your options.

Price (WITH A NEW 2 year contract): $299 (NO REBATES), FREE NEXT DAY shipping with FedEx. NO CHANGES TO THE PLAN. AT all. Whatever plan u got - they don't touch it. (I get to keep my $19/mo unlimited data)

So, call this number: 866 499 8008 (corporate)

Tell them that you're not a business customer, but you _SHOULD_ be eligible for the Tilt 2.

They will ask for your number, SSN, etc, and will tell you that you're eligible and they have the phone (if it's not out of stock by that time... mine wasn't).

Say "YA BABY WOOO", then tell them that your wife/friend/cat got this phone thru this line for $299 shipped, NOT the $389 they may offer you. 5-10 minutes of persuasion and you'll get it. NO REBATES by the way.

Give em ur address, card number, boom - get ur phone next day.

Have fun. I'm getting mine saturday morning.

:dancing banana:

P.S: YES i know I posted this deep in another thread as well, but it will be buried in 10-15 minutes.. so to help people out (like me), here it is.

REBATE FORM (thanks to gmischenko): In addition, it seems you can get a $50 Mail-in-Rebate with Tilt2. You may not be eligible, but you should definitely try and send the form in.

Here is the Rebate Form

Oct 18 UPDATE: $199 Tilt2?

JML5150 is reporting that you can get a Tilt 2 for $199 with a new service plan HERE.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
Excellent advice, gmischenko, once again proves that prices these days are something you wanna fight/threaten/yell about...

Good deal you got there, and definitely everyone should try that Pure/Tilt 2 rebate form to see if you can get $50 MIR.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lowreeds:
Got mine ordered. I had to call the business number. She confided that people would call in and then the device would appear on the website for sale. She checked the website for me and the tilt 2 came up. When i looked again it was there for $349. Cant wait. Thanx for the tips. Where can I find the rebate form?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
Someone with a Pure gotta put one up here for Tilts..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] imabored:
i'm trying to get that deal gmischenko got or that get it for $199 where one member here said they got it for because he mentioned that Verizon were selling it for that price. tried at least 10 reps and the lowest i've gotten was 388. now they are closed so i guess i gotta wait until tomorrow mourning.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
commas are your friend =)

If you're getting $388 without contract, that's pretty good imo.

If you're getting $388 with 2 yr contract, that's way too high.

Mention verizon deals, ask to speak with supervisor.. be polite.. i dunno =)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] imabored:
well i didn't really needed commas as i just put a period at the end of my sentences :)

anyways. i'll have to try again tomorrow as they are closed. well, the premier and corporate lines are closed right now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
Yep, I'm sure u can get it tomorrow.. although u'll probably only get it on Monday.. Well, beats waiting for stores (14-16th) and probably their pricing too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tlordon:
or call sprint and get for 199. .or go to wmdeals.com 49 bucks

but nice find..

there's a post in the Cdma section titled 199 tomorrow..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
... obviously.

Not all of us hate AT&T and want to switch from it.. I found a great option of getting it at a relatively low price, and I posted it for people who can use this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gmischenko:
Does this link work for you?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] WatermelonSlim:
Yeah guys, I think the reason they are not asking anybody about their data plan is because the system is changing it automatically after it detects your IMEI.

Post back after you get your phones and let us know if your data plan changed (after the Online Account Manager detects your new phone).

In that other threaqd, the guy said it took about 48 hours of his SIM being in the new phne for the system to detect his Pure. he then received a text message saying his data plan had been upgraded.

He was not under contract, and bought the Pure at the no commit price (full retail).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Kawinma:
Called the Premier number twice again. I had called yesterday and said what OP did, and was told they were backordered.

The first time, I was told I couldn't order it on the phone due to pricing inconsistencies. The second time, I was told it wasn't available until the 18th.

I suppose I'll just wait for the consumer launch?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] venelar:
same here, ordered late yesterday afternoon through premier. $349 + $14 for next day.

finally
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] imabored:
just called again and was told that they are not allowed to sell it until the 18th because of the price inconsistency. she said that on the 18th, everyone body will be able to get the phone for the price that premier customers are getting it for. i'll try again in a few minutes.

UPDATE: so after calling a hundred times, i got tired of getting the 388 price and all that crap. so i said ''F it'' and called retention and told them i wanted to cancel all 5 of my lines because they are selling it for almost double the price of verizon. the guy went to go check something and came back and said that he could do it for 259.00 with the upgrade fee waived, free overnight shipping(i tried to use a rebate card i got from att but he said that it all has to be on ONE card, so he waived the 15.00 overnight shipping) also got a early upgrade so i just used it on a line that wasn't due for an upgrade until 2010.

Also, i asked for a tracking number but he said that the system wasn't showing a tracking number, but he gave me a conformation number and told me to call one of the ATT lines or something along those lines and give this to them and they should be able to tell me where my package is and so forth. my question is does anyone know how this work? which ATT line do i call? preimer or business? thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
My rep specifically said that they will NOT change the plan, as this is an "Equipment Upgrade Only".

Besides, I will try to use my old Simcard, as I always do at an upgade..

I'll post with results once I get it (it's out for delivery, will have in withing a couple of hours).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DarkDvr:
I'd keep calling, for some reason this phone's launch for AT&T is a total mess, every rep has different information.. Keep calling, talk to their supervisor, put up an order to ship once available.. Maybe it will help.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkhalid:
i will try to be as detailed as possible. im coming from the kaiser community so go easy on me ;)

when i had recieved the phone it would turn on go past the tmobile g1 screen and go into the recovery console. the console read. JF 1.41.

after reading around the best option i got was reverting everything back to factory settings.....and so i did. i installed the factory spl went back to rc29....then updated to rc 30 and installed the new cupcake.

everything was fine except for i couldnt get the phone activated given im an AT&T user.

this morning i finally recieved the unlock code from tmobile and when i turn the phone on with the att simcard, it gave me the triangle with the exclamation screen.

so i hit alt +l then alt w and after a reboot it would bring me back to the same screen. Also this recovery screen is diff from the jf 1.41 (im guessing this is the factory console).

now im out of ideas as to how to get this phone back in order. i would love flashing the DREAIMG.NBH but sadly my phone refuses to go in bootloader.

ive been trying to hold camera+ power and its jsut loads up the tmobile g1 screen.

any and all advice/helps are appreciated.

-thank you
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkhalid:
so this is totally weird. i leave the phone unplugged with the battery out for about 3 hours. came back to work on it....turned it on and well it loaded and got me to the home screen ( no sim card ).

so i powered off the phone and inserted the AT&T simcard turn it on and it shows me the same screen again with the triangle and exclamation point.

how do u explain that ?!

pressed power for 3 seconds and then let go and held down the back key. it flashed the bootloader tricolor screen and then said ""everything will be reset to factory defaults .press send to reset"" and when i did that there was no change........nothing happened. ended up pulling the battery out..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaiSantoshD:
Same problem..

I have very similar problem.. but mine takes much more than 3 hrs to come back.. and even then , the task manger keeps popping up from time to time in the home screen ,, so i guessed my home button was stuck or something...

After i found your "problem Sovled" post in another theread on 11th oct ..i thought i better take your suggestion before taking phone apart..

I was on 1.5 version and 2.22.19.26I radio. also i do not know whether i'm in RC29,30,33 ..

i'm really confused about all this radio,firmware ,recovery things....

Please Guide me .. :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkhalid:
well first you need to get in your ph to find out if u have rc29. if you are able to get to home screen just hit menu - setting - about phone - all the way down it'll tell you what you are running.

i followed this guide to help me flash it to the cyanogenmod rom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=563679

hopefully it helps. but if you are able to get into bootloader unlike me then jsut flash the rc29 hopefully it will solve your problem.

my home key acted like it was stuck but now everything is working fine.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaiSantoshD:
Thanks for Replying so quickly ..

I managed to go to the bootloader screen(tricolor) ..actually it went without even pressing the camera button(any idea why??) after leaving the phone without battery for about 5 hours.. and i flashed the Dreaimg-RC29 file .

Since then i'm Stuck in recovery mode again.. but this time the recovery utility is different (yellow letters)..i.e hopefully RC29 is succefully installed.

I wanted to complete doing your suggested guide before asking any more questions, but now i unable to so what shud i do now?

IS the task manger popping up involuntarily sometimes for you in the cM builds?

Can it be that you had a hardware button issue, which somehow rectified itself when going to Cyanogen..

I really appreciate your taking time to answer my questions ..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkhalid:
well sounds like jsut what had happened to me.

make sure you have tmobile simcard on you with a dataplan.

you're going to have to leave your phone off without the battery or just turned off for a while. from here on out it was trial and error. i kept trying to turn the phone on hoping it would go past the recovery screen once it did i activated the phone and finally completed the root process.

as for the cyanogen mod rom i think you are right. though on my initial flash i had a bunch of force closing apps but it all fixed itself upon a restart. ever since then i haven't seen the recovery mode every time i boot it.

PS: that reocvery mode that you see is the stock recovery meaning yes u have flashed RC29 sucessfully.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkhalid:
so i jsut flashed to CM 4.2.3.1. and well im back to square one. im booting into the recovery by default. obviously confirming my doubts about the hardware problem.

im going to try and leave the phone off for a while and see if i can get it to load up. usually that solves my problem. :confused:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaiSantoshD:
Oh..

Thats depressing.. Anyways... Lets do it together then :) I have kept my phone unsed for about 16hrs now.. hope it works ..

Have you tried the HTC Diagonistic program for g1 (DREADIAG.nbh) ?.. I am yet to try it out as i cannot go to the bootloader..

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7NRX7H40

which version of cyanogen were you using before this happened?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkhalid:
i have not tried diagnostic. iw as going to use ADB to push the recovery on there but it went into bootloader.

i was using cyanogenmod rom 4.1.9999. now i have updated to 4.2.3.1.

actually iw as working on it last night. i re did that whole guide except for downloaded the new rom and flashed it.

so as of now once again that hardware flaw is gone and the phone is working fine. :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrandroid:
Did you update from 4.1.9999 straight into 4.2.3.1? If so, that's the problem (maybe).. I suggest you install the HTC 1.6 ADP Rom (link in the cyanogen 4.2.3.1 post) then upgrade to 4.2.3.1. Make sure everything is updated.... rom, recovery & spl (before you upgrade SPL make sure you have the most recent radio version first! or you'll brick the phone). then give it a try and see what happens...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkhalid:
you are right. the first time i just flashed the new rom. the second time around i followed the guide except for i flashed the latest cyanogen rom.
