Ok, I'll try it out tonight. Wish me luck.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roadmasta01:
Ok first off I have tried searching all day this both here and and on Google, and all I see is "soft brick" or "brick!!!1!!" threads that have access to the bootloader. So either I am being obtuse or it is buried deep in an obscure thread.

Here is my situation, I unrooted my phone by doing the following: I had used DREAIMG.nbh to return my phone to RC29, flashed the cupcake update, and waited for the donut OTA because the .zip would not successfully flash.

All of that was done and everything was running great for a couple of days and I decided that I wanted to go back to rooted.

Well I was using clockworkmod recovery before and I had made a nandroid back-up before unrooting. I figured that would cut the work in half for when I went back to rooted. I didn't know that AndRoot was available for G1 1.6 so I did it the old fashioned way and reflashed the RC29 DREAIMG.nbh. I then regain root via the original 'telnetd' method and proceeded to flash cloworkmod recovery via Telnet. In the nandroid backup that I made I was running Super F test3 so I know that I needed the danger SPL. This is where everything fell apart, I placed the Danger SPL zip on my sdcard and rebooted to check that the recovery had indeed flashed successfully (it did). Seeing that it was working, I then selected to flash any zip update and selected the Danger SPL. It ran and said the operation completed successfully. I then home & backed to reboot and now I am stuck with just the G1 splash screen.

1) Home & Power does

not

work

2) Camera & Power does

not

work

3) Trackball & Power does work to get in blue LED mode. Don't know if that helps just laying it out there.

4)

I did not flash a radio

, I know the dangers there. This occurred immediately after flashing the Danger SPL via clockworkmod recovery.

To summarize: recovery & bootloader button combos don't work, blue LED mode does, phone does power on but I only get the G1 splash screen for all button combos aside from blue LED mode.

Any help is appreciated, an thank you in advance.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunu:
I'm going to call this a brick unless you can get JTAG.

When flashing the danger spl, just follow all the instructions including re-flashing any radio.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roadmasta01:
I didn't need to flash a radio yet, I was just trying to get back to the Danger SPL so that I could restore via nandroid and then I was going to flash the 2.22.23.02 radio because: 1) it worked well for me, and 2) it is Danger SPL safe
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
I think you mixed things: the correct radio is a precondition to flashing DangerSPL. Flashing RC29 you most likely reverted your radio to a 1.x-version.

In addition to that, there is no need to flash DangerSPL. Go with Firerat's custom mtd method and 1.33.2003 and you are fine.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
YOU DO NOT NEED DEATHSPL FOR ANYTHING!!!!

It has ZERO benefit and introduces the possibility that you may do what you did. You know, there is a REASON why we developed a method of repartitioning the thing!

You're BRICKED.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roadmasta01:
Really? Yelling at me is going to help or fix my situation? I was simply working off of the limited knowledge that I have. I had not gotten into MTD partitioning. I felt that that was a little above my head and there for the working knowledge that I had was that I needed the Danger SPL to resize the partitions to enable the flashing of ROMs that need a larger /system partition.

And just for back-up here is quote from Cyanogen's thread for CyanogenMod 6

All I was asking for is a little help, I came into this post think that I was hard bricked, I was just hoping against hope that I wasn't. I am not, and neither are a lot of people that modify their G1s, an expert at this. I am one of the original G1 preorders; This is my first and only G1, and this is the first time that I have bricked my phone. That fact alone should tell you that I have tried my best to read as much as I can to understand something before I try it. I simply became complacent in my working knowledge, which led to this. I am sorry that I was ignorant of, or apprehensive to try some new developments in partitioning, rendering the Danger SPL irrelevant. Please don't needlessly yell at people for no reason. At least I was able to concisely describe my situation and you all didn't have to play 20 questions to get the real situation out of me. I now know that the mistake that I made was forgetting that the DREAIMG.nbh file restores the radio to a pre 2.xx.xx.xx radio and seeing as how I didn't flash a compatible radio before flashing the Danger SPL, I am now hard bricked. Now that my rant is now over I will again say

Thank you again to UberMario, and AndDiSa for their help

.

I am now going to investigate the cost effectiveness of JTAG versus a donor motherboard.

When you do something RETARDED and WITHOUT THINKING, you DESERVE TO BE YELLED AT.

You asked for it, YOU GOT IT!

And you DESERVE it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roadmasta01:
I actually was thinking when I flashed it, I obviously just forgot about the radio reversion. Also, by your logic, since you are being a complete and total JACKA$$; Don't you deserve a nice left hook to the jaw?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
Try that and you could find yourself with a broken neck.

And IF YOU HAD A BRAIN to begin with, you would realize that REPARTITIONING THE SAFE WAY USING KERNEL ARGUMENTS is designed SPECIFICALLY to keep moron retard newbs like you from doing what YOU DID!!!!

So... the easy and safe way is above your head, so you took the dangerous and difficult option instead? Sound intelligent to you?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roadmasta01:
You should really calm down, I didn't threaten you. I simply used your logic to state what you deserve.

I don't know enough about modding kernels to even know what kernel arguments are, so yes I feel that is a little above my head. I have been using the DangerSPL for quite a long time now and this is the first time that it has biten me in the a$$. Difficult? What is difficult about flashing file in a certain order? I have updated the radio a few times since having the DangerSPL. The first couple of times I had to reflash the HardSPL, flash the radio, and reflash the DangerSPL. The last time all I had to do was flash the 2.22.23.02 radio on top of the DangerSPL because it is supposed to be DangerSPL safe. So considering that I knew the dangers involved with it and it isn't difficult to put three files on my sdcard for all of maybe ten minutes, yes the DangerSPL path was an intelligent choice for me.

Something that I've never known that much about... radios.. from time to time people post the radio version they're using.. a few questions..

1. How can I find out what version I'm using?

2. Is there a database of all GSM hero radios, so I can check for the latest version

3. Is there anywhere here on xda or elsewhere where I can download radio images?

Thanks

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.kerwin:
So after having the Vibrant since the day it was available, I'm finally giving TouchWiz a try upon install of Bionix 1.8. It doesn't seem to be slapping me in the face but is there no way, even usinig third-party apps, to edit the icons for the apps JUST in the dock? Or any morphs available that do this? (compatible with 1.8 of course). I did my searching and couldn't really find anything so I'm sorry if it's been asked. Even went through the Home Screen thread to see if any users had done so and just saw a bunch of launcherpro setups haha.

EDIT: Also, what if I wanted to do it myself? Any direction would be appreciated.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hellbringer626:
My G2 may be defective or is it this buggy?

I've actually had the phone reboot on me twice. It looked like a kernel panic like i'm used to on my nexus one with cyanogenmod nightly builds. not only that but i don't see any internet speed improvements in my area over the nexus one despite my area being HSPA+ deployed. I get about the same 800kbps-1.5mbps on both phones. Others in HSPA areas report >3Mbit.

I will also have some considerable lag issues and just plain hangups with switching applications that i never experienced on my nexus. Also I only get about 1.2ish gb of internal storage while othere report >2gb.

On the upside my hinge seems fairly solid and battery life is good. but those glaring issues have me wanting to return (get $ back) and go back to my nexus.

Did I get a lemon? Are others experiencing this as well?

[G2 and Desire Z General] tenbeau:
Experiencing the same issues. Phone just turns itself off. Poor to no reception in areas where my Vibrant and Nexus One get2-3 bars of 3g. Like the phone but it does have issues which some people are reluctant to see. Weird things happen when I deploy the keyboard. Return button does not work at times etc.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pdxrealtor:
From one entire day with the phone I thought reception was weak as well. BUT I asked my wife if her TMO BBerry 9700 had dead spots in the same areas and sure enough she said yes.

I'll be double checking that tonight.... I'll be much happier if it's the network and not the phone.
[G2 and Desire Z General] stevencpoynter:
A lot of users seem to be having these so don't worry you aren't alone.

I get absolutely NO reception in my room (basement lol), coincidently I also use my phone as an alarm and couldn't figure out why it always stuck itself in a boot loop more at night than during the day (which it did...up to five times).

ANYWAY, personally I cut on airplane mode at night and have no problems with the phone crashing and boot looping (G2 splash screen). Ive also installed Rom Manager and run "fix permissions" which has basically stopped the random fc's and crashes during the day. I cant remember if the fix permissions is root dependent as ive always had root when running it but it worked very well for me. Before permission fix my phone was fast but seemed to jerk and twitch going through screens, now it doesn't.

I haven't experienced the freaky ghost track pad issue and the non responding touch screen which caused me to have to lock and unlock the screen.

These might help until either someone can achieve permaroot or tee-mobe sends an ota.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Halotron:
I've had the same reception issues. Tech support told me to do a factory reset, but I don't see how that would help since I just got my second phone two days ago (first one bricked after a kernel panic). It has had these problems out of the box.

Well considering there are hardware differences between even just the Vibrant and the Captivate that require different kernels for Android I think a port of Windows Phone 7 would be rather difficult to pull off as there won't be any source released that can be tweaked & recompiled for the Captivate.

I think you will see some hacks for the Windows 7 phones - I'm pretty sure it won't be as nice as the Android series, nor do I think anyone would want to port Windows onto an existing Android device.

I just noticed today accidentally that you can press and hold the search button on the lock screen and perform anything Google Voice Actions is capable of. I am using a Droid 2 unrooted. This may affect the Droid X as well.

This is a huge security flaw in Motorola's modified lock screen. Hopefully this thread garnishes enough attention so that this can be patched soon!

Steps to reproduce:

1. Lock your screen

2. Press and hold the search button "magnifying glass"

3. Speak any voice action and the phone will respond. Note: you will not get any visual or audible cues that it is working, but it is!

I have a completely clear screen with no widgets or icons on it, and whenever I try to put any of calender widgets it just says there no more room on the home screen. I also tried others ones and it didn't work like the contacts widgets...any idea whats going on?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] jaytxvo:
I think I figured out the problem, but not sure how to fix it. I have the paid version of launcherpro where you can resize widgets, the problem is the widget space twice as big as the widget itself and it will not let me resize up or down, only left and right.

Because of this I can only put one widget per screen cause of that "space" that it somehow taking up.

I think because the calender widgets are big and design to fit the screen, that the extra space is causing not to fit, therefore the message comes up "no more space"

Any idea on how to fix this?
