Hi,
As per the title just wondering if I could run RC30 on my usually RC8 UK G1 as I love some of the themes for RC30
cheers
dan
yes
I two would defo want to know this
That should not be a problem, as I run JF RC8 on my US G1. Just note you will have all phone numbers in the format xxx-xxx-xxxx insted of xxxxxxxx, which is the main reason I stick with RC8.
yeah, not a problem, just flash the RC30 firmware instead of the RC8. shouldn't be any problems at all.
except for the american numbering system which annoys the hell out of me

make sure you have hard spl installed and most like use any of the "happy New Year" .nbh packages of your choice .. in this case the rc30.

Alright I just want to make sure I did this right:
I followed the step-by-step to rc 30 with root here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=443797
It was written for JFv1.3, but its now JFv1.41
So I never installed JFv1.3, I just went straight to JFv1.41
Is there any problem with this? do I need to do a "wipe" or am I fine?
The second quesiton:
what is adp 1.0 and adp 1.1? Do I need to install that ALONG side jFv1.41 or does it overwrite jfv1.41?
Thanks for helping the new guy
Try it without wiping and it doesn't start then wipe it. No big deal. The adp is the dev phone build of android. It's missing things like AIM and MSN in the IM client but it is running a new version of android. RC30 is the T-mobile version
I went from the stock RC30 to Rc29, then to ADP1.1 without going to 1.31. I did need to do a wipe, but everything went perfectly, and my "new" phone is wonderful! I'm glad I did ADP1.1, because it allows you to bypass that annoying register thing when you first turn on the phone.
can you do adp with a normal g1 phone?
and when I went from 30 to 29 it wiped my phone, but when I went to modded 30 and to JFv1.41 there was no wipe... is that supposed to be right?

i haven't wiped the phone since i gained root with RC29
Good to know! Seems like im inthe same place, the guide says your phone gets wiped twice but mine only did once.
Now only need to know if ADP can be installed on a normal g1 I am assuming no

Yes. it can
Now the big question,
ADP 1.1
OR
JFv1.41
What are the benefits of each... I know its a braod question, so dont be afraid to keep it brief as an answer.
Thanks
If you use one of JF's images they will all be JFv1.41. the real question is RC30 or ADP1.1 or RC8.
I have by my G1 in Austria at T-Mobile. I´m not shure about RC33 but i have Firmware1.1 BuildNumber123099 and KernelVersion2.6.15-01843-gfea26b0 [email protected] #6!
Now i need help for going Root User. I did all things with Terminal Emulator and Telnet.apk I Have install the Android SDK with emulator and adb. and this all for only one - being a root user on my G1 and nothing runs!!!! I have allso a HTC Kaiser and i flash him with soooo much roms without problems and with big help from xda-developers!
Now i know only here i can find a help for my problem!
Sorry for my english but i am from austria and writing in english is very hard for my!!!
I Think im not the first or the last one with this problem! And all who by the G1 at 2009 have these Firmware. So we have to find a way!!!!! PLEASE.
THX for searching
DirtyJ
I come also from Austria/Carinthia and I ordered my G1 these days. I also hope that we will one day be able to root our German G1 with Firmware 1.1. But the only thing we can do is wait and offer our help to people, who know more of the matter. So lets drink tea and wait.
By the way, where from Austria do you come???
I´m from Salzburgand i dont know "Carinthia" The Problem with the new G1 is that T-Mobile will close the backdoor with the root user and so she installed this new Firmware. I´m so angry because i like the RC30 on my G1 also for wlanrouter on my G1. So i hope we find anyone who can help us!

I'm not sure if the instructions found at the link below, work for downgrading from RC33
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480
They worked for downgrading from RC8 / RC30 to get RC29 and root access.
Out of interest if you use those instructions with RC33 please post your results so others know if it is possible.

I don't get it.. 'root' was patched out RC-30 (ie telnet hack fixed), so why is RC33 different ? I doubt they fixed the bootloader.

I assume the bootloader for RC33 is untouched hence the root exploit via downgrading should work and dirtyjunkie will get the root access he/she requires.

Carinthia is Englisch for Kärnten. I think everyone knows Kärnten, because of our Landeshauptmann Jörg Haider, who died in a car accident.

Thanks for the info andonnguyen, this is good news as it looks as if google/tmobile are not actively trying to prevent people getting root using the downgrade method.
Has any german/austrian user tested the downgrade from RC33 to RC29? It would be great to hear if it worked.
Do I have to wipe it after that?
Can't test it yet, because I have an android dev phone
From what i heard there should be a way to downgrade form this Build (is this Build the same as RC33?) and maybe JF already guided some guy through the entire process... at least i think i heard so
i'd also be happy to try this, but i could not find a Tutorial or anything else yet... I'm also an Austrian User with FW 1.1 and really d'like to get root access

here is a tutorial for downgrading:
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Root_For_RC30
Right, but this tutorial is for downgrading the rc30 and not this "special" european build 123099
European G1 has build 123099, RC33 is 126986.
ok, didn't know that... thanx!

If you mean, if you have the oi language in german or english afterwards: of course it's english after downgrading and aupgrading. You put on english firmware with that method.
If you mean, if the downgrade works with your german build, then try it an tell us. I don'T think, anything severe could happen either it works or it doesn't.
Hey all, Ill only ask this once, (Since after this time, Ill know for future updates and be on the right path =) )since this G1 is so new dev wise, its getting confusing when im studying everything all at once and only updated rooted once to the custom RC30. I saw the newer update is RC33, now when I apply that, is it required EACH TIME to wipe the device? Im asking cause it would be a pain to reinstall each app I had installed there to begin with. I know I wiped the 1st time I rooted and updated. So just wanted to check.
Also whats the new additions in these updates? Any good changelogs out there? I kinda like keeping the Tmobile US stuff on mine, but root access is awesome. =)
Thanks for any update tips out there atm.
Edit, My G1 is still on Firmware 1.1 is that a seperate update or how is everyone updating that with the custom stuff? Thanks. (And do I need that FW update before going RC33?)
Nope, you won't lose anything when you upgrade the firmware normally. Going from JF RC30 to JF RC33 should be fine
Check the stickied topic on the top of the forum to find out more:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475381
The changelog is somewhere in there.
Thank you. =) I didnt read that one since it was talking about for UK users. Heh. Least it explained things a lil more. =DDD
What about the firmware? Seems Ill have to do the new radio too, but wondering.. is that radio one for US too or only uk? Since its in a UK thread. =/
Nah, it's not a UK topic. He just modifies the title when he adds something new. The radio should be for the US version. Just download the radio and JF RC33 and throw them on your microSD (one at a time obviously, named update.zip).
Firmware 1.1 is just like the base firmware number, you can ignore that. Firmware 1.5 (I think) is cupcake, so you get the idea.
Ok so the firmware is nothing major atm to update or would you still upset it? I havent looked into cupcake yet.
No, completely ignore the firmware number, the only numbers you want to look at are RC30, 33, etc...
Ok this is odd. I updated fine to RC33, however when I try to get back in recovery mode to apply the radio rom, it wont go into the recovery mode. It just keeps rebooting to the G1 screen when im holding the home button. Anyone seen that before or how to get back into the recovery mode?
Anyone have any ideas?
I'm a total noob! so don't flame me!
I just rooted my phone the other night, following the gizmodo site instructions carefully to obtain root and the multi touch function (had no sweats and no troubles! ).
The version was JF1.41, my question is that if i update to JF1.42 will i still have the features that JF1.41 offer? and i just downloaded the JF updater from the market and wondering if anyone can tell me if that ish is legit or do i have to update it to JF1.42 manually?
THANKS GUYS!! Any help would be greatly appreciated
as long as you don't wipe when you apply the upgrade then you should keep everything. I'm not sure what differences there are between 1.41 and 1.42 though, there's probably a thread stickyied at the top detailing them
Is it JF 1.41 without RC33? In that case, you would be getting new features in JF1.42.

yeah it is, thanks! but may i ask what are the new features? kind sir
Hey whatup guys.
Okay - so I got the G from my brother who had it rooted.
Here's what I know:
- JF v. 1.42
- RC 33
- Fade to blue custom theme
Now, my question is (I know it's probably been asked before, but I just can't seem to find the right topic) what would I have to do to upgrade from jf1.42 to the latest CupCake build, whether that be the "rooted" version or the "dev" version (if that makes any sense). Preferibly, the one that is soon to be OTA - as I was reading that the SDK's are released for Developers.
I'm kinda n00bish at this, so I'm not really sure of the differences between JF and ADP, so please bear with me.
Again, I want to try out the cupcake build, (I think 1.5?) but not sure how to go about doing that with my current settings.
Also, I've been reading and speculating about a few different things. Could someone explain these to me?
- Haykuro's version?
- ADP vs JF
- "Dude" or something
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
ADP is basically the dev version of the OS, doesnt include IM and all that...
JF has a modded version of the official adp1.5 same with haykuro and dude.
to upgrade to whichever build just download their buildand rename it to update.zip and blah blah blah, youll probably have to o a wipe though.

Keatonreckard,
Thanks for the response.
I think I understand it now, bu just wish to confirm:
Downloading and flashing to the new JF Version would allow me to "get" Cupcake?
Any benefits of using something else, like Haykuro or dude?
