Hello all,
I followed the instructions provided on the cyanogen website to upgrade to 4.1.999 on my tmobiel my touch.
However once I got to the last step and needed to go to console and hit enter, I can not hit enter on my my touch!!!
I tried to hold down menu and all the buttons but nothing. The screen is just stuck in this position.
If I just take out the battery, will I brick the phone. WHAT CAN I DO???
worth to start a new thread? How about go back to the cyanogen thread and ask the question again? :-/
I tried searching through the thread, but it did not find what i was looking for and its 100+ pages, so i thought it would be easier to ask.
Sorry to bother you
Can I please get one question answered at least.
Would it be safe to remove the battery and try to get to the main menu?
Try asking this in the magic forum. This is in fact the dream forum.
must follow 4.1.99 directions first

I bet you did not upgrade from 4.1.99 (which is required)......If you tried upgrading from 4.1.11.1 or any other, it gets stuck on the g1 screen......removing the battery is your only choice, and it should not brick the phone.....but you need to check your spl, radio and then follow the 4.1.99 directions (from cyanogen.com...you need to do three zip upgrades (first the original adp 1.6, second 4.1.99 and then finally third 4.1.999)
Start asking your questions in the right sub-forum (Q&A) (Theme) or even in (General), or simply search.......Final result will be a ban for you up too 3 days.
Thanks

Hardspl wouldn't load, so I did the work around (white screen).
Follwed the instructions. All went well.
Burned Blackwoodv1 onto the phone. Phone rebooted.
Customization screen came up, asked if I wanted to run "removehiddenproxy" or something like that. I ran it...
Phone shut off.
Now I get the AT&T screen over and over and over.
The device never starts. No bootloader.
Any ideas, or do I send it back and hope for the best?
Um... Not more than a few pages back, was an answer- just the power key and camera key together got it to a boot loader Now I'm going to try to flash the radio.
Rats. After the radio flash and re-flash, same thing. Rats.
Flash a standard HTC rom, see if that works. Sounds like you have a bad rom & radio combo. I had the same problem with my Mogul once.
flash an OS not a radio
read the kaiser wiki, it helps
Closed, betcha
Yep, you answer lies within the threads (or google).
Sorry to do this to you but I have no choice.
Suggest going to one of these threads:
1) The thread on Hard SPL
2) The thread on Jump SPL
3) The thread on the specific Rom you are trying to use
4) The Kaiser Wiki.
Hey,
How do you remove JF, Rooted RC8 etc.. and just go back to how the phone was before I rooted on RC8?
Thanks

Stop after the 1st step
once you flash with DREAMIMG.nbh you will be at RC29 and the automatic updates will bring you back up to date eventually.
Also this info is already here in these forums, please try to search in the future

Check your link, you should at least give him the right info lol. The file is called DREAIMG.nbh, and if you are on RC8, you would not be able to use that file because it is for the US version G1 firmware. Therefore his european APN's would not be loaded onto the phone.
Go to this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485364
Better yet, download this, and copy it to your SD card: http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1/DREAMIMG-RC7.zip
Unzip DREAMIMG-RC7.zip, and copy the DREAIMG.nbh to your SD card. Unplug your phone from the usb.
Power off your phone.
After it has powered down, hold the camera and power button at the same time to enter the bootloader. The phone will search for DREAIMG.nbh, and once it has been found, press the power button to update. After it has finished updating it will tell you to press the action button, so press the trackball. Once it has returned to the bootloader, press power, the green call button, and menu at the same time to restart.
It may take a few minutes to update so don't turn off the phone will updating.

Crazy... i could swear i gave this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480
And i did a copy/past of "DREAMIMG.nbh" from line 2 under the 1st screen shot.
I must be loosing my mind or something.
sorry
pwned!!!!!!!!
why dont ppl just simply link something without crapping on about search etc..
if it was that easy to find then why ask?
Sadly this doesn't seem to work with german G1s as of now.
Or, is there a DREAIMG.nbh for german devices? I couldn't find anything.

the OP should have searched because I'm sure that not only the original "back to stock" thread there are probably a few like this one where somebody asked and some helpful user reposted the instructions, which is good... as there is more than 1 way to skin a cat.
But on a forum as busy as this, a question as popular as this can just clogg up the the works with a dozen threads rehashing of the same info.
the second poster was right to scold him for not searching first and posting second then he even gave a link to be nice(right or wrong it's the thought that counts, right?) to soften the blow of the "you shoulda searched buddy"
so now I'll stop clogging sh1t up with my rant
In parenting this is called reinforcing negative behavior, everybody should try to search out the info they want before posting a "HELP ME!" thread, the OP didn't do that but got his info anyway, thus reinforcing the behavior of not searching before you post.

format your stick from fat to fat 32 then the bootloader will see the DREAMIMG.NBH
when mine was fat it didn't work till I formatted it to fat32.

How to get a completely clean phone
First before you can get your phone completely clean, you need to learn where to post on xda
Ok here goes. Be nice, I'm new...
I have a Stellar in front of me (or Kaiser, TyTynII etc) which has managed to get itself into Boot Loader. I'm usually pretty good at getting these out of it but this one has me stumped, and I'm hoping someone may be able to give me some suggestions, or confirm my suspicions that it is kaput.
It's in Serial mode at the moment, showing
KAIS130
SPL-1.82.0000
CPLD-8
on the top of the screen.
So I plugged it into the computer and it nicely popped into USB mode which then let me flash it, using the file: RUU_Kaiser_O2_UK_1.82.206.1_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.32_Ship
This appeared to take, started the process, splash screen loaded, windows mobile loaded OK and for all intents and purposes was back at the factory reset (which is what I wanted). HOWEVER.....when I performed a soft reset it went back into Boot Loader and I'm now back at square one.
Any ideas? I can't install any homebrew ROMs on this, it HAS to be the standard ROM for reasons I'm not at liberty to post here (don't worry nothing illegal is going on, suffice to say, I shouldn't really be here!)
I have at least 2 others that are doing similar as well and would like to get these fixed also. All help/comments gratefully received and I apologise again if this is covered somewhere else.
It seems you have not done any SPL hard flashing yet.
Did you really read the Flashing for Noob sticky ? It's there .. first you need to do hard SPL, SIM/CID Unlock, then only you can change your ROM to anything.
Please go back and re-read.
Sorry. Will this do anything bad to the device, only I've never done anything like that before, I've just run the ROM flash file. I've never had to do anything like you suggested before. It needs to be put back to factory as it is going to get allocated to someone - which means I then have to install a clone over the top of this.....sorry if I'm being thick. I did read the document you suggested but that resulted in me getting more confused.
If this is not the right place for me to be, please feel free to close this thread and I'll keep looking elsewhere. Cheers.
Hi,
First of all: what do you want to do? Read this to clarify your intention
Take your time, read through the WIKI first.
After that, if you still want to flash, go to the Noob sticky.
If you don't have the passion, I'd suggest just use the phone as from factory. Reading the Wiki still will give you insight and many good tips/tricks without flashing.
Edit to addI apologize.
After re-reading again, it seems that what you're trying to do is reviving the dead Kaiser. From the SPL version, it's not yet 6.1. You can check out here to see any other official ROM matches, which what you currently use seemed to be correct.
Mod, please merge this with Kaiser stuck at Bootloader thread ..
Good luck.
Edit 2
It seems that when you did a soft reset (by pushing at the small hole using stylus?), the other two buttons (camera + power) are still pressed (or due to hardware, kept being pressed), thus resulting in boot loader displayed again?
Well that's why I couldn't work out why I couldn't get the ROM to stay.....this has never happened before! So yes, I am trying to revive a seemingly busted Kaiser. The customer handed it to me in Boot Loader mode. Usually running the RUU fixes this and we can then go about rebuilding it. However in this case it really doesn't want the factory ROM but I need it to! I can quite easily get it into USB mode and flash it by running the .exe file on my desktop - but then that's about all I can do. I can't give it back to the customer as the next time he performs a soft reset or switches it off, it'll be back in Boot Loader...ARGH!
Oh, and apology accepted!
And another thing, I just tried running the exe file again and got as far as the screen alignment and the poxy thing just locked....cue soft reset and back to Boot Loader. Me not happy.
Edit: A quick check of the Hardware and all the buttons appear to be OK - nothing looks like it's stuck down
If you want to take the looooong road, perhaps you can do flashing Hard SPL, unlock SIM/CID and then flashing any other ROM/Radio. Once you get a stable working device, you can flash back the OEM using this method
I'm not sure if this custom RUU can help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334890
I haven't tried that, so it's just an idea for now.
Thread closed.
If you are still having problems with the bootloader check out my sticky.
If you need help with the flashing process check out mskip's sticky.
Only create a new thread for new issues that have not been discussed before.
Good luck
Thanks

OK, I too skim read (I read a lotta threads ).

Is there anyway to transfer files while in fastboot mode? I have no idea where the F*** my usb adapter went but I flashed haykuros SPL and I'm stuck at the G1 screen, I can enter recovery mode and can enter fastboot mode. Help would be appreciated.
wow if only there was a thread related to the SPL you attempted to flash that you could post your problems in. if only there were instructions when you found the new SPL that you could have followed. if only there were some way you could quickly and easily sift through hundred of thousands of posts looking for key terms or words that are commonly used by n00bs with problems
Dude with all the effort you took to just write that you could have easily answered my question. I did search for this before I posted this thread. Please people don't be rude, I didn't really screw your day up by posting this thread. Its simple and concise, so how about now?
what do you want to transfer? to transfer files to your phone, use adb. Read this, but since you can't start up the phone, just make sure your bootloader says "FASTBOOT" (if it doesn't, hit the back button on your g1) and follow the instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502010
before saying anything i know it should be in Q&A but no one reply me there =[[ and i really need help.

THIS IS NOT AN EXCUSE TO BREAK FORUM RULES.
This thread has now been reported, and hopefully, it will be closed before someone goes against their better judgment and helps you.
If you want an answer, have patience and check back in the Q&A. Or, post in the relevant ROM thread. Or, search. Or, don't perform procedures on your buddy's phone if you don't know what you're doing. But DO NOT post in here when you KNOW it's a violation of the rules.
these guys are crawling out all over the place today....feel bad to be a mod today..lol...
you need to slow down friend and reread everything you need to and start from step 1.
If I were a mod, I would've taken the day off. It sounds bricked to me if you can't even get into fastboot. You should've done the one click root.

Ok anyone. Mods are getting really angry with all these post. Ur probaly gonna get banned for posting in this section. Anyway u probaly didn't follow directions. You flashed the spl before u did the radio and got bricked I guess. If u can't get into the bootloader by pressing camera + power or recovery home + power. You are brick. See you in 3 days after ur banned. You should have search first
