Can we have more of a discription of what exactly this is???

DreaIMG_1.26.531.2_Official_signed.nbh
find this file, still don't know what it is!

http://odiness.com/misc/android/DreaIMG_1.26.531.2_Official_signed.nbh
Mirror. Have not tested.

it is a origional RC30 and without root, right?

hskoon... can u describe what r u posting here...? we know it's RC30 image but if it's the OTA RC30 ver, then it'll just do more harm here & pointless

Can we have DREAIMG.NBM file for RC19 or RC28 or RC29

With this, at least now we can upgrade to an official version of Cupcake without worrying it patched up any (yet to discovered) security holes in RC30.

HTC can have Google change the private keys of their bootloader with no consequences. HTC/T-Mobile is the only one that uses them, so they'd just have to check which version to use before reflashing. If it's an older phone, use the older version.
Basically, the cupcake build can include new keys which would make this .nbh useless.

Crafty, aren't they. What are we to do?

ok testing this dreaimg.nbh on my non rooted official rc30 so that if it indeed is official RC30 no loss. will post results shortly.

Update Terminate UPDATE FAIL
no soup... tried this on my locked RC30 G1 and the update failed.

WARNING!!
From what I can disect from the file it includes t-mobiles shipped SPL, so if flashed and you have a eng bootloader or a dev phone it might overwrite your fallback bootloader!!!!
To the Poster, if you had access to this version can you see if you can get for us any earlier version before rc30, and or rc8 for uk phones. This would be most excellent and allow us to revert all rc30 rc8 phones.
Thank you for your time and effort!!!

Its just the RC30 nothing special about it.

so, i would highly advise that nobody use this. I had a perfectly usable g1 official rc30 and after trying this NBH and it failing, the phone is now unusable. REPEAT DO NOT USE THIS IMAGE!!!

The image update did not fail on my g1.
But ended up with the the same non rooted rc30 as i had on that phone.

indeed stupid... and double post.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3014684

bunny0007 what steps did you take? did you have to rename the file to dreaimg.nbh and remove all the other stuff? i would like to try to reflash this one to at least get it back to stock rc30

Yep renamed it with capital letters to DREAIMG.NBH on a blank sd, and flash it thrug the bootloader.
But the system and user date took a while.

odd, thats what i did to two of these testers that i had and both got corrupted... oh wait, it wasnt capital letters, not sure if that would make a difference or not, but it seemed to have found it and started working... let me try with caps....

revert to stock g1 from modded

i have a g1 that i installed Jesusfreaks 1.31 to and also flashed hardspl to it.. im having serious battery issues so i am going to return my phone for another one.. im trying to find a how-to on reversing everything i have done along with the stock rc30 image... can someone please point me at a tutorial or in the right direction...
i have googled it for the past 30 mins and have found nothing..
thanks

Download the G1Orig SPL here, flash that. Then download one of the revert update packages here and flash that. Remember to Alt+W to wipe the user and cache partitions too.
Edit: By the way are you having recurring serious battery charge loss or was it just one event?

You could flash the original bootloader (image is in the SPL thread) and then load the stock t-mobile rc29 onto your phone. Then take your phone to T-Mobile for warranty.
This way it just seems as though your phone never got the OTA rc30 update
I brought my phone in to ask a question about a clicking noise my phone had (the arm that the display moves on feels loose) when open. The guy behind the counter asked to see my phone and I was not thinking...he took it and noticed the clicking but said it was normal; he showed me his phone and a few display phones that did the same. Then he fired up "About phone" and suddenly became quite...he turned quite confused and told me that this was not a Dev phone. I played dumb and told him "I don't know, this is how it came from the store when I got it last month..." He then rebooted my phone to see both custom spash screens and the engineering boot loader...I wish I had a camera for the look on his face.
Oddly enough, both he and his manager were reluctant to give me my phone back.
So yeah, I recommend putting a stock rc29 on your phone before taking it in

i downloaded the origSPL and when i go to flash it with alt s it says verifying update package
no signature
verification faield
installation aborted
its renamed to update.zip and im assuming because i have done this before that i am doing it correctly .. any advice?

Did you already revert back to official Android? The SPL updaters are signed with test keys, so if you have already reverted to official Android then anything signed with test keys will fail to flash.

this is my build and kernel version..
would this be the updated rc30? i thought that i updated it correctly and i assume that i could not have flashed hard spl if i hadnt

When you enter recovery mode do you see JF's custom background or is it the standard recovery?

its JF's recovery screen.. im thinking to flash the test key recovery.img and then downgrade.. flash the new orig spl then the orig rc30.. witll that work?

If you're seeing JF's recovery screen then you already are running on test keys; there is no need to flash a different recovery.img

i have reformatted the sd card a bunch of times... only thing i can thnk of is that when i download the files from here to my mac it comes as a folder and then i zip them and rename them.. can this be the problem?

Comes as a folder? Sorry, I have no idea how macs work (or don't). You should not need to be zipping anything. If it worked before in the past i'm sure you got it working somehow. The MD5 of the file as it appears on the sdcard should be the identical to what I posted in the SPL sticky.

just use the RC29 NBH file and flash it from SD card. this will make it like it was out of the box.

but the spl will be the hardspl not the orig spl correct?

NBH file doesn't overwrite the SPL though, does it?

Just flash the Dream file here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=463779
It will go back to RC29 and back to that tri-color boot screen, then get the OTA RC30 here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=451090

ok.. i figured it out.. here was the problem.. on my mac when using safari in the preferences it has an option to auto open trusted files ..ex. pdf zips etc..
so it was unzipping the zips into folders.. then when i was re-zipping them it was messing it up.. i now have it working..
hope this helps others with this problem
and thanks to you guys for trying to help me trouble shoot it

There's your problem

that brings up the question...
to make thing simple for people.
Does anyone have the orignal G1 recovery.img image so for those who want to revert back to orignal firmware with ORIGNAL keys it would be nice.
for some people its better for them to know that thye are reversing their steps them.
what I know from all the threads above is just loading loading firmwares with test keys....
now how about the original recovery.img. Provding a reverse would be nice.
=)

Getting the original recovery.img is easy. Just download the original RC30/RC8 file from any mirror and open it up with your favorite archiving program. However in order to revert the SPL you would still need to be using test keys.

recovery I can do
the reverting of SPL..hell I dont know how to do that....

Problem with downgrading

Hi all
First off Ive read every single thread about downgrading so far
I have tried nearly everything to downgrade
but it keeps saying
No Signature
Verification Failed
I think it has something to do with me installing the RC33 upgrade a while ago
when the new update came out I downloaded the RC33 update from some forum and installed it
now I have no Idea on how to update it to a JFv1.41-RC33 update so I can downgrade it with the DREAIMG.nbh
Any Help would be appreciated!
I know I have to run the DREAIMG.nbh in SPL mode Camera + Power button I Did this but then I get not allowed error and it goes back to the SPL mode and wont install the DREAIMG.nbh
Thins I tried to fix this:
Factory Reset
Hard Wipe
Thanks in advance,

Bump anyone I really want to fix this.

"goldcard" "qmat" maybe that could help?

daft question... but
do you have DREAIMG.nbh on the 'root' of your sdcard?
if not then put it on the root
if it is on the 'root' you could try downloading a fresh copy

Hmm How Do I put it in the root??
I just connected my phone trough USB formatted it fat32 ( 8 GB SD )
and then I just copied it to my SD Card is there any other way on how I Should put this on the Root of my SD?
Thanks for the quick reply's

Anyone?
And what does qmat actually do?

Ive been trying to fix it now for a few days tried so many things but nothing worked so far.
Anyone?

So, you currently have RC33 installed, right? I would redownload the DREAIMG.nbh file. Make sure its the RC29 version and not the RC7 version.

I Did that even tried it on my friends PC last night redownloaded the RC29 and reformatted my SD Card
But the DREAIMG.nbh still says not allowed.

Does it have to be formatted in a Cardreader? cuz what ive done so far is connected my phone trough usb and formatted it while it was in the phone.

If you don't have a clue what qmat is, than you did not read the complete manual.
Qmat is essential in this downgrade-proces.
Greets,
JP

I know what Qmat is I read about it I wanna know if it is really neccesairy since I do not have any windows mobile based phones.

yes it is.

Ok is there a way to do it without a windows mobile device or linux?

Have the same problem now
Any help is appreciated

The above is probably just badly phrased, but you do have to downgrade your stock RC33 firmware to the stock RC29 firmware BEFORE you can upgrade to JF1.41 or whatever.
Are you following the instructions on this page exactly?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Rooting
Whenever I was having trouble with rooting, it turned out I wasn't following the directions.

bricked G1, really, but I don't give up

Hi guys, I finally decided to root my G1. I'm writing apps so I was going to leave it stock but sipdroid was released and I wanted to get a 1.5 image on there. I was following the tried and true downgrade to RC29 method to gain root when I ran into problems. I have read and read and read, searched high and low, but it may have to come to an end.
I "successfully" flashed RC29 onto my G1 (retail). Using a fat32 formatted 4GB card containing only the RC29 DREAIMG.NBH. It verivied the image, got through 100% progress, OK'd each item, gave me the successfull / complete message, asked to hit action key, great. Reboot.
Now, every time it hangs on the G1 screen. It still has the stock SPL and no recovery mode. I can still get to the bootloader mode if I want to flash again, or another image. I can also perform a wipe (and have).
Things I have tried:
-performing successfull wipes through booting with home+back
-reformat sd card, fat32.
-verify and compare md5sum of NBH image to same image from other sites
-tried RC29 image from multiple sites / sources
-check md5sum of image after copying it to card (using card reader)
-updating with recovery.img and update.zip but either it doesn't boot far enough or I can't yet because of the image or stock SPL.
-found an RC30 image and flashed it, same problem.
-Swapping my fido and tm sim cards, and without one
Things I need to try:
-another sd card, I may run out and get a 1 GB.
-look for a RC33 image but I don't think there's one leaked. I have seen updates to apply as update.zip but I can't do that in my phone's state.
Maybe there's something in pre-RC33 that tickles a problem with my phone?
Maybe something just messed up when I flashed RC29 for the first time, even though it got OKs all around.
I'm doing everything from my linux laptop as that's all I use. I'm in Canada, had to get my phone from ebay which cost me over $400 CAD. I would have gotten an ADP1 but the handling fees to here are rediculous. Expensive paperweight. I don't know if I'll have any luck getting a warranty replacement.
I was lucky enough to have JF and other's offering suggestions over IRC last night but as you see I'm still stuck.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Interesting, I've just read something from the list of changes in RC33, which I was running:
# G1 hanging at the G1 Screen
* Symptom(s): A small number of G1 devices hanging at the G1 screen during the initial power up.
I guess another option would be to wait / keep searching for a leaked RC33 DREAIMG.NBH.
Is there a way to generate one using nandroid on a phone with stock RC33 or is my imagination too wild?

You need root to create a nandroid backup...

Wait how long do you let it sit on the G1 screen? I've had an instance or two I believe when I first got root where when first booting up it took forever.

I've probably left it at most for about 20 minutes. I've head of G1's hanging on the flashing android screen then recovering, but not on the G1 screen. I also don't want to drain my battery, even though I have two. I'm not sure my batteries will charge in this state and I don't have a seperate bettery charger (maybe time to get one).

I would venture to say that it would... mine charges on recovery mode, off, in boot loader... even when hooked up via USB and the laptop is OFF
In fact despite the lack of time on the battery I've been impressed how easy it is to get power to it... I just carry around a micro usb cable, 15-30 mins power here and there keeps me going round the clock

Over lunch I got a 1 GB card, found a windows box to format it fat32, copy RC29 DREAIMG.nbh to it, flashed my G1 with is, success, reboot, still hangs.
I'd love to get my hands on an official RC33 image, or a diag image that will work on this phone. I found the service manual also, it has links to images on the HTC site but of course they're password protected.
If I can't RMA this thing maybe another option is to get one for parts and build a hybrid.

Format the card for FAT (not 32)
Load the IMG file on there and try it again. I've seen problems with a Fat32 formatted card.

It is not a card problem if your update is found and flashed. Wish i had more answers for you, but at least you can stop looking down that road.

JF said to try getting into recovery and applying an official update to see if that works. The updates can be found on my wiki (links in my sig) if yo need them.
Also he just told me that there might be a RC30 nbh file floating around on these forums. If so you might try that. I would look for yo but I have to head off to work

Thanks, I do have an RC30 image, and have tried it with the same results. I also have an official RC30 to RC33 update but haven't been able to get into recovery mode to apply it. I'm crazy busy at work for the next few hours but will try again avter that.
Thanks.

I've tried a zillion times to get into recovery mode, not gonna happen.
Also, now I can't even perform a wipe by holding home+back+power on boot.
I can still flash nbh images but nothing available to me will work. When I load DREADIAG.nbh every time it does something with the radio it hangs until I hit end to cancel it.
It is my current theory:
As in my second post to this thread my G1 suffers from a problem that was fixed in RC33. This is causing my G1 to hang since I now have RC29 (and RC30, etc). It is likely that the problem has to do with the radio (or radio image).
There's no way for me to update the radio image right now. I need a newer (>= RC33) nbh to load.
Suppose my G1 is hanging on the radio device. As in the service manual, page 22, I unplug the UMTS coaxial cable to disconnect the device.
Is the UMTS the radio or is it just for 3G?
If it IS the radio, and I disconnect it, maybe it won't hang on boot. I could get running, root, update the radio image, reconnect the radio.
It's a long shot but what do you think?

In my opinion, you should restore to rc29 nbh and send it to t-mobile for repair..

Rooting Mytouch Fender LE 32a/ Mytouch 1.2 UNIVERSAL ANDROOT CONFIRMED WORKING!!!

Universal Androot confirmed working. This method is no longer needed and is to dangourous for some people so please use universal androot 1.5.3+
IF READ CORRECTLY YOU WILL NOT BRICK. BUT, Since a few of you dont have that ability, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU BRICKING YOUR PHONE. There are no pros to rooting this phone yet, leave it alone if you dont know what your doing PLEASE. I beg you. You are in essence almost bricking your phone in order to root it in the first place. These arent fun and games, It is dangerous to rush this stuff
Listen.. Im more then happy to help people. BUt I fully understand why so many devs have left this place. Some of you are so utterly ridiculous with your questions, wanting someone to hold your hand. I cant sit on gtalk for hours helping you go through what should take 10 min , I have a life and kids and other things to do. I did this because I was bored and wanted to see if I could. There is not point in rooting it yet, there are no roms, nor will there be for at least a month. Please, if you cant even understand simple questions, have never rooted or even used an android phone before, please.. do not bother me. This place is insane with stupidity. I will change the tutorial in a little more detail later, but fo rnow, DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YORU DOING. IF YOUR BREAK YOUR CRAP< I DONT CARE, BECAUSE IT WASNT MY FAULT.
I am in no way an angry or mean person, but you people have given me a migraine. I see why all the rom devs hide from here so much
THERE IS NO POINT IN ROOTING THIS PHONE YET PEOPLE, SO STOP.. OMG PLEASE STOP LOL
IT HAS BEEN DONE!!! lol
After 3 days, sleepless night and 5 min from returning the phone, Together with the Awesome Cursordroid We have achieved full root of the fender mytouch/ Mytouch 1.2 revision.
Now.. Understand.. not many will have the fender Mytouch.. but this is the hardware they WILL be using in the fully confirmed Mytouch 1.2
If you do not follow my instructions fully, NOTHING WILL WORK.
Start by making a working gold card, pay VERY CLOSE attention to what the instructions for making a gold card say
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/14/how-to-root-your-mytouch-3g/
READ READ READ. DO NOT download the SAPPimg.zip file it says on that page.
Get the top fixed SPL file 2010 from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4332591&postcount=1
Once you have you working goldcard (remember, apply to PHYSICAL not LOGICAL) rename the fixed SPL/rom you just downloaded to SAPPIMG.img
Put that file on your gold card
Hold volume down while hitting power
You will boot into Hboot, and if goldcard was made correcly and file is in root, it will begin to read. MAke sure battery is full or chargeing. follow on screen directions for flashing. Reboot into Hboot.
You are now screwed with a downgraded SPL and radio that do not work on this phone YAAAAAAY.
Now grab the stock radio and SPL from Cursordroid here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5451898&posted=1#post5451898
From there on follow hiw directions for reupdating your radio and spl, plus give yourself a new recovery making ROOT.
Im not good at tutorials or typing on a tiny netbook keyboard so please forgive. Anyquestions please ask and I will go into more detail
In order
Goldcard
Amen ras fixed spl rom renamed SAPPIMG.img
Boot into Hboot volume down/power
let rom install saying yes to what it says. If it works..
Now boot into your recovery through fastboot
Flash phone with stock fender rom
reboot into fastboot
back out of update when it asks and flash STOCK radio and SPL back, now reboot
your splash screen for fender IS GONE, get over it. You can make a new one later if you realllly need to.

if you build the thread they will come, oh yes, they will come.

lol.. I figured if I could get a thread up with all our info, maybe I could get more people interested just for the fact hat nothing now works... which means this could be the same build in the coming Mytouch 1.2 that is basicly the same exact phone as the fender.

hey, im new here but i have a rooted g1. and i've been skimming thru the fender pages.
I also work at tmobile and used my discount to snag the fender. but as of now im still using my rooted g1 which currently has a tiny scratch on it which i cant stand "hence why i got a fender".
seems to me once the new mytouches come out with the 32a and 3.5 mm jack there will be more attempting to pwn his phone.
im still fairly new to all of this soo im tryin to soak up as much knowledge as i can.
but still w/o the root. the fender still is a sweet phone haha.
idk what to do with it, it just sits in my room i havent even put my sim into it yet. im deciding either to sell it or just let it sit until it can be rooted.
i use the wireless tether too much to switch to the mytouch.
in the mean time g'luck! kinda rough for us LE owners cuz only few people have it to play around with.

This might be noob as I am not 100% sure what perfected SPL means, but I had a SPL that gave the fastboot "no remote" error.
I used an official SEA RUU that comes with a ENG SPL, then I could update change what ever I wanted.
Thought I would just through it out there.
My phone is a model A6161.

Make a goldcard.
Then try to find an official HTC RUU with version higher than 2.08.531.1 but which has an open SPL or is only Cupcake so 1-click-root will work.
If that doesn't work just try a regular sappimg.nbh, but with goldcard too.

The problem is after days of reading and trying 5 different sapp.img every file gets the same device id failure. But I do understand having to find a higher number rom so Ill start on that quest.
So basicly what you saying is I need to find a pre rooted "offcial" rom that has and eng SPL allready or a 1.5 rom with open spl?
Ill try the 1.5 cupcake idea because the goldcard methos so far doesnt seem to work but that would make sense if we are trying to use to old a versions to root.

I think, your current way will not end with success.
Wrong model id or device id means, that HTC decided pick out Fender in another serie. Yes, i agree, that Fender has same SPL as Magics, but trying flash anything, that has another model id like trying flash Hero's ROM to Tattoo.
SPL ia like a computer's BIOS. SO if you flash foreign bios - your comp will probably die....
Saddened by the fact that Fender is limited edition. So it will not have big knowledgebase like Magic.

No.. I got the gold card made. The only reason it ever comes up as damged or reformat is because you applied the goldimg to the logical drive which is at top of list as opposed to Physical REMOVABLE DISK at the bottm. Its the only time I can get the error. but if I apply the goldimg to the logical drive it makes a perfect goldcard everytime. I tested it on aspar g1. So... its not a godl card problem lol

Make a goldcard.
Then try to find an official HTC RUU with version higher than 2.08.531.1 but which has an open SPL or is only Cupcake so 1-click-root will work.
If that doesn't work just try a regular sappimg.nbh, but with goldcard too.

Looking through here for HTC RUU roms I seem to keep geeting dragged to the hero and WinMob forums which I dont think I should be. Where exactly would I find this?
My ideas are..
Find a rom of higher version that is rooted see if it works.
Find an older 1.5 build (which is proving hard) and go from there
Try and flash the rooted fender donut over it and see the results.
My main problem with this is, I dont think its able to be downgraded past 1.6.. Just like newer PSP's cant be downgraded to 1.5

After formatiing my 2gb sandisk (which may be the problem) now when using the 98mb SAPPIMG.zip I get "Main version is older" instead of "Device id failed"
Is this a good sign to on the right track? Im going to try the 62mb SappIMG.zip from amon ra's tut as soon as its done downloading and see if theres a difference.
Now.. what does main version is older mean? The firmware or the spl/radio. if so... is there a newer version i can use/or substitute a file for the Sappimg.nbh to just install a higher version rom.
Man.. The G1 is so much easier to do all this with lol

YEEEEES. Ok. I freaking fracking diddley did it. OMG i was sooo scared.
Wooo So happy now.
I unable to update my OP and thread title if a mod can help me with that.
If noone minds I am going to post my first ever tutorial on something. this was a real pain but I am up and running on Amon ras latest rom for now. On to the recovery....
EDIT-- Got a fully functioning Manups 2.1 1.5 going. THEBLUECOAT if you want to know how to do it PM me... Otherwise give me about an hour or so and I will have a full tut posted
AHHH.. EVEN worse.. I noticed now that it says I have a 32b board NOOOO
EDIT2- Such a dumbass I didnt make a backup of the orignal. Poop.. I liked the boot image and music apps. I just wish I could figure out why all roms so far dont recognize the touch screen as being there and want me to use the track ball. Even power button has 1 option Power off lol
UMMM touch screen not working. What didnt I do?

How do I get my SDCARD to not show up under logical, its under logical but the drive says "removable disk" all I have are phones to use, would this not be possible or would I need a driver replacement

you HAVE to use a card reader. thats where your problem has been. You have to use a card reader so that it sees the reader AND the card seperatly. So in hex, you dont see Logical drive then a row and then Physical and a row?
Im not pissed... I had the 2010 eng spl... trying to flash roms. No rom would use touch screen. so started over and ened up with a 32 b board now and a perfected spl again.... lol Argh... trying through it again now.

I used Amen ras newest Fixed spl fix 1.33.2010, made my gold card, renamed that file to SAPPIMG.zip, went into Hboot and it flashed without a problem.
I then rebooted into Hboot seeing the new Info.. Didnt look at the 32a/32b part yet so not sure if it happened there.
It then rebooted into whatever rom that file came with (look for Amen ras Fixed spl thread) the rom came up, with no tocu screen. only the track ball worked.
I rebooted and stupidly jumped right into flashing a couple of the new clair builds from king and.. the othe rguy lol. neither had touch support. I then went back to update to manups newest and used the 32a port file, and no touch screen...
I then rebooted and flashed the amen ra rom and rebooted into a Mytouch boot loop... went into Hboot and had a perfected spl and S-on. ARGH.
Just started from scratch again. Im really wondering why i loose touch screen support and why in the hell it say 32b now
