Downgrade from Cupcake (Android 1.5) ? - G1 Android Development

Hi everybody,
My brand new G1 works on a beta version of Android 1.5.
Is it possible to downgrade the phone to a stable version ?
(Maybe it exist a stable version of Android 1.5 here ?!)
Thanks in advance for your response.
Regards.
Dan

you phone came with 1.5 installed on it?

it's just a prototype...
look at my signature.

1) Nope, no stable here.
2) Downgrade via Wipe + custom image + JF RC33. Search for RC29 -> JF RC30 with Root method.
Oh...Can you tell us some new features of 1.5??
Does it have Videorecording app??
Bluetooth features??

So let me get this straight: Orange have given you a prototype phone, which means they assume you are capable enough as an engineer on how to test it, yet you can't work out how to wipe and flash.
Further, you can't spend five minutes to search and discover the g1 cupcake builds that the xda community have been working on. Well my friend, good luck to you.
For the record, many of use are using 'prototype' G1s here too - its called custom boot images. Unfortunately we don't have a funky cool signature of a company that was beaten out of the Australian telco market. Probably for the best though because if we did, I would be worried that fellow engineers might be losing their jobs by breaking non-disclosure agreements.

lmfao wtf

Any chance for a little
# cat /dev/mtd/mtd2 > /sdcard/mtd2.img

thats what i was gonna ask....

Brutal but true. A lot of really talented people got laid off from my work that can figure out how to flash a device... its called reading the requirements my friend.

I'm not the only people who have this version all over the world.
So, i'm not interresting in the version 1.5 because mine is a beta one.
I'm looking for a stable and an working version, that's all.
Sorry Tommy, your speech isn"t for me...
For others: Not, i'll not dump anything for you, sorry.
But video recording works fine

So is this a bragging thread then? We can't know if you can downgrade or not; how would we? Just test it out yourself.

You came for help from all of the talented developers here, who have worked so hard to make our phones great, expecting to use their stuff, but you won't share your version with them?
Just because one person who is a new member trolled you, it doesn't mean that everyone else feels the same way. The guys who did all of this work, freely shared it with anyone who wanted to try their versions, and never asked anything in return. I really wish I had the knowledge to give something back. If I had a phone with 1.5 on it, I definitely would let them see it.

Well, he might have had to sign a contract or something saying that he wouldn't distribute it. I wouldn't risk losing my job, either.

Same dude. Extreme noobs posting ****. Its turning into a regular forum not a dev forum.
Its like people don't both paying a little bit of attention. I'm usually tolerant of these random posts but this would annoy me.
well u ppl talk much cant no one simple upload one app for me even not on ipmart :S its really start to inoring me
this is not a place for uploading, its a forum to discuss and improve, not clog with usless nonsense.
...
well arent we all here to help each other out??? labelling someone as a noob is not gonna solve their problems man... 'nyways on to the topic... i really don't mind the h build works great for me as per the chinese letters http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503630 here u go man... sry can't upload apps but yea just offering an alternative to enjoy the cupcake.
I have the G build (hated the H too) and I'm getting market access. But it's really strange, I'll click to download and nothing happens, but hours later I'll notice the apps downloaded. Doesn't seem to be able to download over wi-fi either.
Besides that, I am really loving the build.
If it's any help, I noticed that Market wasn't downloading any apps when I was on RC33, and then realized that for some reason, I was logged out of GoogleTalk. Logged back in, and fired up the downloads again, and it worked. No idea why -- are these apps related? Does Market rely on GoogleTalk to authenticate?
I have 5.0.1gr3 version installed on my phone. And I have Bluetooth prublem. It connects but it dus not work it shows that it using bluetooth. But in reality it using normal spiker. And I have markert prublem. I know it on going issue and I hope it will be resolved soon.
Does anybody found a solution for the market downloading?

Dont even post em buddy, too many un grateful people in here. your name has to be haykuro to make roms.
Hey! we're a community guys, a lot of the veteran dev's you see around here started out like this fellow, so please, just keep an open mind and give him a chance would ya?
I think you should just start out with the regular ROM thread format.
List which hero dump each of your ROM's are based on, what works, what doesn't. What is required. Anything you've added in, what you've taken out. Recommendations on swap if it's supported etc. Link or no link, it's a start.
Maybe you'd like to name your roms, or something and change the thread title as well

***Don't waste your time flaming this post. I will not check up on it at all.***

Second the above statement. The only hero rom I have used to date with working bluetooth for 32B devices is the one in my signature. It is by no means the fastest but it is stable enough with working bluetooth.
Tmack23 should have the ROM's posted within an hour.
is bt actually working?
I'm down to flash. I will give it a shot. I like giving people benefit of the doubt. If they take the time to post a rom, why not take the time to try it out. Right? I'm excited to hear that you have working bluetooth. I hope this works on my mt3g.

i'm with you up to an extent. some people (i am most definitely not pointing the finger at anyone. i'm just saying in general) will just throw together something to say they're a dev and play everything up.
on a lighter note, i'm VERY interested in hearing whether or not bt is working. i can't flash at the moment, but i'll probly try it out later tonight.

Well in the OP he mention that BT should be working because is working on his G1.....can't flash at the moment.....sigh....

T-mobile is sending out OTA 2.0.1 already for G1 and MT3G

see http://simflecks.com/?p=1082
if you've gotten it post a dump so it can be rooted
Hey whats the commands to dump the phone?
I unrooted my MT3G so its on 1.6 atm.
And oddly I don't believe it. Until T-Mobile gives the announcement, itis all speculation.
@Ace just get a logcat app and IF you get it, run it and post it, we will get the link for it.

Fail. This article was dated from last year.
I know noone knows me from anything.. but Im not out for attention on this.
When I went in to change my plan last week and check my upgrade credit it was in mid morning and I was the only customer so I was able to sit down with the re for a while talking about phones and he showed me the fender Mytouch demoo.. blah blah.. Anyway.. When we were talking about if I should wait for the fender mytouch or get a CLiq, he mentioned to me that the new updates would be officially out between feb 7th-21st. I asked him what build he said depending on the phone 2.01 and 2.1. He knew I had a G1 and he said that I may be getting 2.1. This guy has been working in the same store for about 4 years so I know hes not some rambling new guys saying whatever I want to hear.
Just my 2.324543 cents
so, i herd you like eclair?

[RUU] RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_2.20.651.1_signed_test | Android 2.1

Here is a link to the latest RUU from Sprint.
You cannot simply extract it. This still has root since it is a test release. I recommend just doing an adb pull of your system directory after you flash it. Don't do this when the final one comes out or else you might be stuck without root.
You will need to add busybox, patch sh and su, and make sure that you do another recovery image and such. I also recommend adding Superuser.apk and stuff. If you use the Desire build.prop, you can get most of the protected apps working.
Enjoy.

Damage, Glad to see you back and hope you stay. You have always been honest and forthright about the leaked RUU and why you wouldn't/couldn't release to everybody. It is so rare to run across somebody who embodies the highest qualities of honesty, integrity, loyalty, and generosity. You have shown that by sharing your information and talent with the community to help troubleshoot and refine the 2.1 update.
It is an atrocity that a few jealous ingrates have managed to destroy this and future opportunities. This is what happens when people expect everything handed to them, without having to work for or earn it. Whatever happened to personal responsibility, your word being your bond, helping someone just because they need it, not because you can get something from it, honor and integrity?? Welcome to the new America..........

Ok, first off, lets say I have respect for the man.
Second, get off his nuts, and third he was most likely approached by someone who leaked the files to him in exchange for anonymity. He didn't work for them any harder than anyone else. He got boned for being trusting. It sucks and ruined a good thing for the rest of us!.

Testers needed for jelly bean possibility(POSSIBLY WON'T WORK)

Mod Edit:
Thread close as it poses a high risk for our members plus if you are sure this will not work..then do not release publicly. Instead ask for volunteers and PM them the info.
Also, calling us this "OK THANKS GAY xda" won't help you neither.
Cheers,

PS: If you reopen...follow my suggestions, please.
OK WAIT
EVERYONE READY TO DOWNLOAD WAIT A SEC.
I don't know if this build will or won't work. It may brick your device and it may work. If you are a developer please check the .zip folder and possibly correct any errors. It should work, considering how closely similar jellybean and ICS are. The same problems existing in ICS should still exist here so brace yourself. There are probably even more problems as well. DEVELOPERS NEEDED FOR HELP. please be cautious and aware of the negative possibilities.
Wow I am definitely not going to be the first to test this. If this is JB working with everything that is working in CM9, I will gladly throw it on my device. Who's going to bite the bullet first?
With 3 posts I'm also hesitant.
Yeah i just switched forums though so im new to xda

Trust me i would be hesitant too, this is not my first time building something but it is still sketchy.
I'll test it if someone can at least ensure that it doesn't cause the phone to explode LOL.

This is what I'm waiting for. If everything in ICS works from this and doesn't just brick my phone from the start, I'd gladly throw it on my phone.
I would hope a DEV would look at this and see if they think it's safe.Without a known DEV confirming the files will write correctly on the phone I wouldn't touch this......no offence.
Yeah UMMM...
Ok so i tried my own build on my triumph after backing up and turns out it didn't boot the rom so back to drawing boards... I didn't brick by the way so it's a pretty harmless fail at that.
It's umm well

Yeah i hear ya... it is useless but safe as long as you have a backup... but don't bother trying at the time because it is again useless if it don't boot.
