You're not an idiot, you're simply a newbie (noob, new user, whatever) and it takes time to learn. I hope I didn't sound too harsh on you.

I'm an international user too (Italy, Southern Europe) and the latest radio works like a charm. I can't tell you about battery usage differncies, since I am experimenting CM's USB bug randomly so I just don't know where to pin the blame. :)
[G1 Android Development] jingle0831:
Guys, I have a Magic 32a, due to my stupidness, I flashed spl 1.33.0013d and radio 2.22.27.08. Now, I can't flash with fastboot ( error : FAILED (remote: signature verify fail) ) and can't boot to recovery mode as well. How can I flash back? Million thanks in advanced.
[G1 Android Development] Sleeepy2:
Not sure if this is just me or not but don't try this on CM6.1 unless you do a nadroid first..

I just did it and can't boot and of course I didn't do a nandroid so back to an older nandroid :(
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
It won't stop linux from booting unless you did something else.. go back into adb and restore it.. but I'd really check your logcat
[G1 Android Development] Jurai:
I'm seeing pretty inaccurate (my location isn't even within the 'bubble' of possible location) location info when using cell tower locations, will those commands above help with that ezterry?
[G1 Android Development] nduanetesh:
Hey ezterry,

I've tried running the commands you listed above several times, and I'm not having any luck. When I run the second one, I get an output of

/system/bin/sh: url:google_location_server: not found

/system/bin/sh: http://www.google.com/loc/m/api: not found

And that doesn't seem right. I'm currently hooked up to a wifi network and agps is working, so it seems to me that one of those should have a value. I've tried this while connected to the wifi, while not connected to wifi, and after connecting and disconnecting. (And I reboot after every attempt.) Any ideas what might be going on here?

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] tissimo:
Thanks a lot, Finally got my G1 back from my pops and updated the SPL and Radio on it and used your kernel with CM6.1 and its MUCH faster then before.
[G1 Android Development] SpeedNi:
works well for me, thanks
[G1 Android Development] BookCase:
Just wanted to comment that I'm running Biffmod v2.1 with both Apps2SD, Apps2ext & Dex2SD, Swap Enabled ...without Custom MTD ...no issues.
[G1 Android Development] wariat:
Hey ezterry,

thx for your work.. :D

but if flash the second part of the t-mobile or vodafone OTA i can brick my phone??

I have your new Radio (2708) and SPL (1.33.0013d)..
[G1 Android Development] chukis13:
Okay, I can't get fastboot to work on my computer at all... can I get this radio and spl in a flashable version somewhere?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
yes

just search for

I want to brick my phone
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Thanks! Started out all miserable and cold and bored but you just made my day, genius, LMAO! :D
[G1 Android Development] JamesBlack:
Does anyone have a link to the new radios and SPL?
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
????

You are not talking about the ones in the kit zip on the op post that everyone has been downloading do you?
[G1 Android Development] wariat:
what i can do to go back?????
[G1 Android Development] :
You want to go back and loose the 15mb? Strange but you just get the radio and hboot you want to change back to.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
go back to the OP and read from

== Important Information about 1.33.0013d ==

it tells you what to do
[G1 Android Development] captaincrook:
No need to be a keyboard warrior in every thread. :rolleyes:

Use the "If you find yourself stuck without recovery!!" instructions in the first post.

On that note, ezterry, can you label those instructions as the path to reverse? I asked before but yeah, lotta posts.
[G1 Android Development] chukis13:
Thanks for being a useless waste of space and posting just to get your count up. Anyway, I finally figured it out after piecing together bits of information from about 30 threads and god knows how many different forums and a lot of trial and error.
[G1 Android Development] wariat:
And after i have the stock ROM??Or only the stock radio and spl??
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
you need to flash radio, recovery & hboot... after that go back to recovery and flash a rom
[G1 Android Development] christolew:
Tired of Searching

Can someone lend me a helping hand?

I love modding my G1... and the latest builds are fantastic on performance! a HUGE thanks to you guys for making it simple... However, I am finding it very difficult to fix my wireless tethering issue.

It used to be so simple in previous CM builds... hit the tether widget and all is good... or use barnacle... however, now I can not get either of them to work.

What information do I need to provide to you guys in order to get this thing going? I use wireless tethering all the time... now that my G1 is outperforming my TP2... I want to hang the TP2 up for good.

Help me out, please.

EDIT*** TRYING OUT BIFMOD... Looks like there is a wireless tether built in... Will have to see how the performance is... wish me luck :-)
[G1 Android Development] wariat:
Sorry guys but someone can make a simple guide to come back.. step by step.. sorry but i'm afraid to brick my magic 32b..
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
so you are much smarter now then

I find inciting lazy people gets them all fired up so they actually do something..

so not such a useless post after all, it worked just perfectly.

and tbh, I have no idea what my post count is, don't care either.

edit: ahh, just noticed, you were actually projecting with your post, it got you a post count of 11 and had no worthwhile content.. I really should have noticed that sooner.

Anyway, you might have found it much easier to just work out how to use fastboot and use the instructions in the OP

should you choose to accept it, that can be your next homework assignment.
[G1 Android Development] JamesBlack:
What's the difference between the radios?

Some have 2.22.28.25, some have 2.22.27.08 and last but not least 3.22.26.17.
[G1 Android Development] christolew:
WHOOP! WHOOP!

Wireless Tethering Works on Biffmod... One Happy Camper... for now anyways :-)
[G1 Android Development] christolew:
WERD!

I spent all morning looking for tethering issues before I posted a single line... In fact... my post could is only at 2 (3 after this post) and I have been using xda-dev for over two years... Modded everything from TP, WING, TP2, & my beloved G1.

For Goodness Sake People... READ! take the first step and initiate the process... make sure you make a backup... save $h!t on your PC before your mod... yadda, yadda, so on & so forth... then have fun with your device
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
USB tethering works about 1000 times better for me than wireless tethering. For one it doesn't heat up your battery as much to the point it's about to melt. I think the last time I used wireless tethering my battery was well over 111 degrees F in about 5 minutes of surfing the web. I even tried the latest and newest one. Also data speeds seem to be faster with the usb tethering. Just as a tip I really don't think it's good for your phone, not sure why you can't get it working on your phone, works fine for me ;)
[G1 Android Development] fart23:
Okay. So I think I have read enough research about the stuff I need to know before flashing such radio/SPL. But I do have a couple of questions which came unanswered on my research. I'm a noob at this, so I hope you would take consideration on answering my questions because I don't want to proceed on such procedure with knowing it all the way(that would end up having my g1 bricked). :D So again, I apologize for such noob questions. Here are some things I need some clarifications for;

*Info*

I have a G1, with Cyanogen 6.1.0 DS, btw for info you might need. Radio 2.22.19.26I, on SPL, I have no idea because it doesn't say anything. It only says "Latest G1 SPL" which I downloaded from theunlockr. Which I was able to use adb and cyanogen 6 with.

*Questions*

- It says here "To Start you will need a fastboot enabled SPL such as 1.33.2003 or 1.33.2005 or 1.33.2010 or 1.42.2000 as I'm not distributing the new radio/SPL in a update.zip". That means I need an SPL that has enabled fastboot right? (noob question, but just for clarification to be safe) And if it is, is my SPL fastboot enabled? I was able to use it with adb. Haven't tried it with fastboot. I don't know if it is fastboot enabled because I have no idea what SPL version it is. So I can't do much research on it. So I refer from the fact that I was able to use it on adb on flashing my cyanogen 6.

-On ANY KERNEL INSTALLER.(Only if you are not using a rom containing a 2708+ kernel) Which means me, my cyanogen doesn't contain a 2708+ port. So there are 2. Which one is the most preferrable for me? Again, I have a Cyanogen 6.1.0-DS. BiffMod? Or Nightly236.CM_2708port?

-On step 6, Should I only proceed if I wish to use your kernel? Which is the ezBiffTestKernel20101106-2708_S.zip, RIGHT? (Not sure if thats what you meant)

-On A ROM area, it says. (note: many cm6 based roms block install because of the '1.33.0013d' bootloader Please use firerat's SpoofSPL). Which you all have read from above, I have a cyanogen 6.1. Am I RECOMMENDED to use "firerat's SpoofSPL" or the one you have provided (hboot-1.33.0013d.img) is good enough?

Thats about all my questions so far. If I will have more, I will just post or edit here again. Again, if you think these questions are so noobish, I apologize. I'm new at this and I've done a lot of research already, but some of them was left unanswered. I find it unfair for you guys doing all the work, and yet some people will shoot questions anyway they want without any research. So I did my research, but the ones I asked couldn't be answered. I hope you can help. Thanks a lot in advance. :D
[G1 Android Development] christolew:
Bifmod worked great... running well with wireless tethering... just watched a Netflix movie without a single blip on the screen & tested d-load speed @ 3.6Mb/s.

Unfortunately, I do not know how to get USB tether to work with WinXP... I know it will work with Vista or Windows 7 (without a problem)... But not sure how to get it to work with XP... I guess I can look into it.
[G1 Android Development] christolew:
Download the following (you might have to do a google search for each):

1) ohsaka-super-wipe.zip

2) hboot0013d-signed.zip

3) update_2.22.27.08_S.zip

4) ROM of your choice listed in the first post of this thread

Boot into Recovery

1) Run nandroid & backup

Reboot phone & copy all contents of SD card just to be safe. At this point, I used an SD card reader each time to load what I needed on the SD card. Then rebooted into recovery, flashed what I needed, put the SD card back into the card reader, loaded the next file, renamed to update, reboot into recovery, flash, repeat... This is probably not the preferred method... But it always works for me.

Flash in this order

1) ohsaka-super-wipe.zip

2) hboot0013d-signed.zip

3) update_2.22.27.08_S.zip

4) ROM of your choice listed in the first post of this thread

You should be golden... & for some reason... the super wipe made all the difference in the world!

Good Luck & Have fun flashing!!
[G1 Android Development] christolew:
Mine was about 113 deg F... I guess this is no bueno? Not sure if my TP2 ever got that hot... never really seamed to anyway... My TP2 ran wireless tethering all the way from Houston to Ohio supporting four other devices without a drop.. It was a champ... too bad Windows Mobile Sucks!

Thanks. Awesome forums! :D
[G1 Android Development] SirJackal:
I flashed the radio 2.22.28.25, but can't flash the SPL and you said that we have to use fastboot. But i really dont know how to use it because when I've installed the radio already, my phone was rebooted and it sometimes stand in the T-mobile G1 for a long time, sometimes reboot and reboot, It depends on the rom I install. I dont know why.

I'm sorry when I ask about this cuz i'm a new android comer
[G1 Android Development] :
Search forum - ADB for dummies - Read - Follow instructions.
[G1 Android Development] beav_35:
2.22.27.08 is the original 14mb ram hack radio.

2.22.28.25 is the latest 14mb ram hack radio. I don't think anyone really knows what the differences are just that there are "security updates".

3.22.26.17 is an EBI1 radio from Rogers and some other providers. You don't want this for the ram hack.
[G1 Android Development] s14evil:
I am unable to get the radios to work on my phone. I've flashed both kits for the dream. 2.22.27.08 kit keeps giving me an error. So I tryed the .28 radio, it stuck but no the hboot 1.33.00.3d . Is it posible to get this working with out adb/sdk on my pc?
[G1 Android Development] :
Yes if you hate your phone and want a new paper weight.

The .28 radio works because its a mere flash, your lucky you still have a phone to play with, fastboot = Working no problem. Search forum for ADB for dummies, ignore red writing about update and follow the original thread.
[G1 Android Development] s14evil:
Oka. But I think I will keep my 2.22.23.03 and spl 1.33.2005. And keep cm6.0 no real problem with this set up. But I would like to get ready for gingerbread
[G1 Android Development] rsxtypes72:
Just wanted to say thanks. Great instructions. Easy to follow. I'm late to this party lol. I've been playing with my G2 too much.
[G1 Android Development] rsxtypes72:
Just so you know Cyangen stated on twitter that froyo is probably gonna be it for the G1/dream. Its pretty much reached its limit.

update*** I stand corrected I see they have a nightie for ds gingerbread***
[G1 Android Development] domii:
finally i got some balls to do it :D

thanks alot...

[Update]

flashed it as instructed and the results are stunning, my g1 is smoother like never before.

so again, thanks a million.

[G1 Android Development] linhldz:
Hi ezterry, I've been using your kernel with 2825 radio and your OTA AOSP 2.2 for sometime. But while everything has been just great, snappy and stable, I've encountered problems with battery life. Exactly 9 hours after unplugged from the wall adapter at 100% and immediately rebooted I'm looking at 42% - and this with 5-6 mins calltime tops, no messaging/mail/IM, no playing with apps, EDGE only, GPS+3G+Wifi+Bluetooth off, Autosync on. More specifically :

- 32B Dream / SPL 0013d + 2825 + ezterry's 2.34.7 port for 2708 + myTouch3G-Test3 rom with FroyoParts.

- New battery, properly calibrated and in SuperD it's lasted at least 48 hrs with my using pattern, which isn't changed.

- I've been running on skeleton system, no SetCPU, no swap/compcache/app2sd. top showed no CPU hog process. Useless apps/services like T-Mobile MyFaves, VoiceDialer/VoiceSearch... are removed. Running services in Settings-Applications reports almost barebone.

- Signal is good, -60 to -70dBm.

Battery usage history showing some interesting numbers:

Cell standby 74%, time without a signal 50%!!!

Display 15%

Voice calls 7%

Android sytem 2%

Phone idle 2%

From what I've seen it's obviously the weak signal is draining my juice with phone constantly searching for station. But it just isn't the case, I'm in downtown and I know for a fact there are BTSs nearby, my call quality is good, call time isn't much but I received them steadily - about 2 calls per hour - no one told me of any lost call, whenever I turned on 3G data speed is fast also. And here the interesting part, occasionally after charged+rebooted and using with exactly the same pattern I saw very different battery usage reports with Display top the list at ~60-70% and Cell standby ~15% - when most of the time the screen is off! I don't think it's the good old USB power bug because everytime I unplug it from the adapter I reboot immediately. Jumping between 2708 and 2825 doesn't change anything so I guess it's the kernel.

I really really don't want to go back to Donut because rightnow my G1 is performing quite well. I'm rather proficient with Linux so if you want me to run some tests I believe I can follow. Thanks you.

Even when I had the phone in airplane mode overnight, the phone (battery) was totally dead when I woke seven hours or so later. I do love rom, just the battery life is killing me.
[G1 Android Development] linhldz:
Then you'd have a more serious drain than me. Better check if you've got any rogue process eating up cycles. Adb shell and run top is a good starting point. In my case things are getting more complicated I affraid.

I tried pershoot 2.35.x but they're worse, 2.35 seems to be more problematic.

Hi there!

I followed these instructions up to 6, then I followed these instructions to install [ROM] Updated - CM61 Nightly Build 285 Gingerbread Frwrk/Contact/Market/Brwsr/MMS/Set on my HTC Dream.

Before I updated all that stuff I used a former nighty of CM6 together with the firerat script app2ext and mount /system/ to ext and /data/ to ext. After Android booted, I started to configure the system (running firerats script again, Compcache, no animations and so on) until I got FC on almost every task. I restarted the Dream, which took quite long this time (even longer than rebooting after flashing). Then ALL my settings and apps, everything was like before flashing the new radio, SPL and ROM. Is there a chance that this could harm my system in any way? I mean I wiped the system with fastboot but then I wiped the /system in the NAND, right? Did I have to delete the /sd-ext/system before flashing all that stuff?

The phone runs so damned well at the moment, everything is kinda smoother, after the last reboot I did not have a FC up to now. Thank you dev's, great job!

SO I have a problem I have been at this for the last 8 hours, and I haven't asked for help untill now(my fault I know) but I have done everything EVERY tutorial to get ADB to work, and I keep running into the a fastboot problem, once I get to the point where I enter in the code C:\androidsdk\tools>adb devices, it is always blank when I enter into fastboot mode, but when the phone is on an running the information shows up, I have upgraded the usb drivers so I dont think that is it...ANY help would be appreciated...o and also even when I try to do the codes in cmd they end up in Device waiting....so yeah an btw im using windows vista 32 if that matters
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
well, adb & Fastboot are 2 diff things, seems that you are missing fastboot, I dont have the link for it but you need to download it

once you have it open fastboot.exe or just drop fastboot inside sdk/tools and open it when you are on bootloader mode on your ph

I dont know.. did I confused you more? :o
[G1 Android Development] chukis13:
If you are running the latest adb the adb dll is not in tools. The new path is c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools. You will also need to copy the fastboot.exe from c:\android-sdk-windows\tools directory to this folder if you want to run fastboot commands. OR you can copy the files: adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll, and adbwinusbapi.dll to the c:\android-sdk-windows\tools directory and continue as normal.
[G1 Android Development] cmsullivan:
Okay I have the fastboot in C:\ANDROIDSDK\tools and no i am no more confused then I was earlier so no worries lol

and I have the latest adb but I do not understand this step

i installed this spl+radio and using the kernel with superd, non ram hack version, but i get this when i run a 3d game:

EGL ( 3047): requestGPU() failed
libEGL ( 3047): h/w accelerated eglGetDisplay() failed (EGL_SUCCESS)

If i am right, the previous ram hack "stolen" the vram from the gpu, and i understand why the gpu does not work correctly

This radio instead will use less ram and make it available for the system, right?

Why the 3d does not work?
