i want to flash my phone with jf's roms but i want to know if he already has a rom that has root and wont need to be activated because i dont have a data plan
The ADP1 updates (incl the JFMod version) have an option on the initial setup wizard to bypass activation. However, running ADP1 means you won't be able to buy apps from the Market. Alternately, install the JFMod version of RC33 and follow the instructions in the "How to register the G1 without a sim or dataplan" thread.

wrong.
you can download and buy apps from the market.
what you can't do with an ADP is buying protected apps only and they are very few.

i read the sticky but it said rc30 i reread it and it was for rc30 up so i got that down so anyway if i flashed with a modded rc33 i can unlock using the method posted in the sticky right and can someone give me a link to the modded rc33 i think i found it but im not sure and i dont want to brick my phone so thank you guys for the help
so this how you flash the phone with a different rom
1. Format your phone's SD card to FAT32 mode:
* Hook your phone up to your computer using a USB cable and then wait for the notification to show up in your title bar of your phone.
* Click the notification, and then click "Mount".
* A new removable disk should show up on your computer. Right click it and select Format, and select FAT32 as the file system type.
2. Download and unzip the RC29 or RC7 image file. Copy the DREAMIMG.nbh file to the SD card. (RC29 for US, RC7 is for UK)
3. Turn the device power off.
4. Hold Camera button, and press Power button to entry bootloader mode. You should see a gray/white screen with instructions to flash your phone with the update on your SD card. If you don't see that, make sure you followed the instructions properly.
5. As per the on-screen instructions, press the Power button to start upgrade procedure. DO NOT DO ANYTHING TO INTERRUPT THIS PROCESS.
6. After it is finished, perform the restart your phone.
but instead of using rc29 i want to use the modded rc33 so i would be going from stock rc33 to modded rc33 because i read it was already rooted if anyone can tell me thats right ill appreciate it

That would be nice. I wouldn't call it "wrong" like the other guy did, because wanting something isn't wrong. It just won't work since there is no mod-RC33 image available *in the required format*. Problem is that in order to write a system image to a stock consumer device, that system image needs to be digitally signed with a private key that we simply don't have available.
So the procedure becomes... write the older system image that has a known exploit available, and use that exploit to root the device, allowing you to write the engineering bootloader, which allows the installation of your desired system image.
ok so if i go from rc33 to rc29 and root it how do i got to jf's rc33 wont i loose the root

rc33 has to be renamed update, place it on your cards root, reboot *home+menu+power key* let go of menu and power key when your phone restarts booting up. HOLD THE HOME KEY STILL, till you enter recovery mode.
Click Alt+l
Click Alt+s
when update is one installing,
Click Home+back key.
Cross your fingers that your phone won't blow, if it doesn't, you did it
your best solution
get the Haykuro Sapphire port...the latest 4.9 is working awesome, you can just click the SKIP button on the registration, but if you are going to use the market later on, you need to connect on wifi and login with you gmail account. plus, you will have many other features on your phone like auto-rotate, camcorder, stereo BT (Still buggy) and many more.. Hope this helps you. good luck.
Here's the Download-Link for the RC9/UK/Europe Version of Cupcake. It's the official Version for a manual Update ...
http://android.clients.google.com/updates/signed-CRB17-from-TMI-RC9-eu.17667e06.zip
thank you !
how did you find this link, I don't see it on the android website.
Also an install guide would be nice too.
Has anyone come across a RC9 nbh image? That would be useful for those with stock bootloader / no root.
are you sure RC9 is cupcake?
as JF did an RC9 and that was ver 1.1, cupcake is 1.5
It's not RC9, it's definitely cupcake. I posted it earlier here - there's some advice on page 5 if you need it.

You need to be running RC9 for it to flash. RC7 or RC8 will produce that error.

It's updating from RC7 to 1.5 NL
i got it to work, but can we downgrade it.
Works great. The only problem I have is that once you flash this build, will it be permanent?
Can you downgrade back to any of the previous roms? I tried but no luck.
Anybody help ? Please I am lost.
Thanks for the link, no more waiting impatiently for the OTA update. Sad to see Latitude is still disabled for the UK but it's good to have decent video support at last.
yep flashed fine here (on a none rooted device i might add) definatly more nippy and far sleeker looking, im sure the browsers supposed to have auto rotate on it but i cant find it any one any ideas >?

Does this one have numbers in UK format?
JF1.5 has numbers in a different format
should be
0123456789
JF1.5 has
012-345-678-9
I applied this update manually from this post - does it include the radio? I have problems with bluetooth handsfree now (though bluetooth stereo works fine)..

Not 100% sure if this works. I'm running 6.1H and tried to copy over the IM and MyFaves .apk, and they did not install.
Edit 1:
Tried a adb push of the 2 IM .apks, and they didn't install.

That's because you're using JF's modded version and that zip is the official version.
you need to wait for him to sign and mod it.
everyone else just enjoy the link and stop posting new threads of 'us cupcake found', I've counted at least 3.
thanx guys
So JF will create a modded version of this eventually right?
Confirmed working. Just installed update.zip onto a non-rooted RC30.
Firmware Version 1.5
Baseband version 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I
Kernel Version 2.6.27-00393-g6607056

I have the JF ADP 1.5 now and I miss the translucent drawer (slide out launcher) from 1.4. Is the official 1.5 drawer opaque or translucent?

Did JF already mod the T-Mobile Official Release of 1.5????
Asking because JF Updater isn't showing any updates to download at this time
The "Cupcake" that JF modded was the ADP build.
Hmm. It's from here: http://andblogs.net/2009/05/tmobile-usa-cupcake-url/, but it wasn't posted by JF, and JF's blog (http://jf.andblogs.net/) has not been updated.

no .. not JFs work .. someone just signed his initials .. falsely reported .. it should really be named something different
i dont know its not loading for me at all
I have an unrooted phone, but I loaded the us cupcake and its working fine. Only problem I see is the phone isnt as fast
I think it's faster. I've been using JFv1.5 on my white phone. Unrooted my black one to try this out. Seems alright. No new widgets...ala myFavs...which is what I would have liked to see since I've been waiting so darn long. No "spare parts" either. I kind of liked the option to make the text smaller and was looking forward to a working version of it. Obviously, they couldn't figure it out either.
I just bricked my phone.
I follow the root tut.
Then, intead of installing the RC33-signed, I tried to install the OTA Cupcake.
Got the "unsigned," issue.
I think I looked and tried to unroot by way of reflashing RC29, but bricked it.
Stuck at G1 screen.

!!!! ROOTING/FLASHING/DOWNGRADING IS ALWAYS ON YOUR OWN RISK !!!!
Attention: This method will completely wipe your phone!!!
You can find the reworked Tutorial here: http://android-tutorials.org/
Video of the first step is online: Step 1
Video of the 3 & 4 step is online: Step 3 & 4
Known Problems
If you have problems while re-rooting or custom recovery (unrevoke) try to downgrade again with the above procedure.
Make sure you have made a new goldcard.
If you have problems e.g. 140 ERROR please follow these instructions (thx to raz2133)
This will fix your MISC Partition so you can flash back original RUU files.
Happy re-rooting
P.S. i hope you can understand this because english is not my foreign language
Great News!
Im not Root-Bricked ^^ but someone else will be happy with it =)
Edit: Why is 1 Pic from July and one from March!? And different times.
Thank you!!!
Maybe you should add: this wipes your device...
This is great, keep up the good work! =)
Edit: Are we sure those that do not have a carrier locked/branded also needs to create a goldcard?

For everyone how was in bad luck and updated to the original OTA FroYo here is a way how you can revert it.
The User maximini1 has found a thread where they describe how you can downgrade to 0.80 again.
So i try to explain how you have to do it.
Preparation
1. Make a NEW Goldcard (here)
2. Download PB99IMG.zip (here - MIRROR - germany MIRROR2)
3. Rename the downloaded file to "PB99IMG.zip" and copy it onto your SD Card.
Flashing
1. Shutdown yor mobile
2. Hold Volume up and press power
3. wait until PB99IMG.zip was found and checked
4. Press Volume Up <yes> - PICTURE 1
5. Wait until all steps are done. DON't POWER OFF YOUR DEVICE!!! - PICTURE 2
6. After flashing press Volume Up to reboot
7. done

First of all, I have an unbranded simlock-free phone. All I did was
1. download the file to SD card.
2. rename to PB99IMG.zip
3. boot into recovery (turn phone on while holding down volume)
4. just let it load the zip file and press yes when asked to install
Easy as that!

Ok for the dumb and ignorant among us (a.k.a me) what state does this leave your phone in.
I get I downgrade HBOOT to 0.80 and my phone will be wiped, but what ROM will be on the phone after the downgrade will it still be the OTA rom or will it be another one?
Or do I then need to install a ROM of my choice after the downgrade, sorry if this is a really stupid question, I haven't put any custom ROM on my Desire yet and then I got the OTA update as I was thinking about checking out some custom stuff. Not had the phone long.
Thanks.

After you've done the steps above you will have the following:
Blank and wiped device
Firmware: 2.1-update1 UNROOTED!
HBOOT: 0.80
Basband(Radio): 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
Kernel: [email protected]#1
Build: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys
With that you can root and flash anything you want
Thanks for the tuto.
Hello sweety 0.80, bye bye dirty 0.92 ^_^
Worked for me.
Btw, didn't need the gc
Well, if this works AdamG doesn't have to find a way to root hboot 0.92.
:/
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Has anyone tried this on a branded, but rooted phone?
I've got an O2 branded desire with hb00t 0.83, I can root with unrevoked, but can't boot into recovery =( Hoping this will fix it.
It's works fine! Why doesn't work the recovery bat. on my PC?

It will work but if it's modified in any other ways then the update might fail.
Updating by this method will remove your root but you can easily regain it, just follow the root thread.
can I run this update from 2.3.5 rooted or I should make 2.3.6 OTA first?
Yes. It is just a modified updater, all the changes are same as in OTA.
Having a problem. When I do the OTA update, it downloads it, restarts, starts to install, then I get a !. When it fully reboots it says, failed to install update. When I tried this method, stated above, I press System Update and it still wants to download, it has no copy option.
