How can I fix my HTC Dream G1/ OS Problems - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
Yesterday I got my HTC Dream G1.
And I have big troubles updating it. Absolutely every guide that I read (and I read a lot) has a step that requires installig App from the Android Market.. to Root the phone. The problem is that I Don`t have Android Market. In the Settings > About Phone is written:
Model Number
HTC Dream
Firmware version
1.0
Baseband verson
62.52S.20.18H_2.22.20.23
Kernel version
2.6.25
[email protected] #2
Build number
1.13.0.A 109064 CL#44815 (MFG)
So I don`t even have the "RC30/29" that is mentioned in all the guides.
The phone OS overall looks strange. There is just one screen with 4 icons on the bottom (Browser, Contacts, Dialer, All) and All expands the menu. There isnt the clock, the isnt the search bar.. only the four icons and there isn`t any option to make any changes to them. The wallpaper even if I set it manually shows only for a few seconds and then the background becomes black.
How I can install Android Market, how can I update my phone?
Dialer/WiFi/Bluethoot work fine.

Hi,
Idk if u still need the answer but, what u can do is go to youtube.com and look up videos that have rooting instructions...I had the same phone couple months ago and didn't have market so I had to do it another way.
Good luck!!!

I suggest side loading the apps you need, such as es file explorer. Btw why get a dream and keep it at the astro version of android. Anyway, download the update zip and place it to the root of your internal SD. Do that by using es file explorer. Then somehow get to recovery and apply the update zip. Might have to do it multiple times to get into clockwork mod recovery. Then you are rooted.

Best ROM for my Hero?

Hi guys,
am new to this whole rooting/ROM updating thing.
Would appreciate if someone could guide me to a good ROM for my HERO (currently running stock 1.5)...its an Eastern/Central European version (i.e. has language for Czech, Hungary, Poland etc) and has no market place.
Basically the ROM I am looking for should:
Give market ability
Android 2.1
Fast to use
Give a better/more practical contacts selection option...i.e. the fastest way to select contacts (bypassing having to go through multiple screens!)
Be generally cool and not make me want to buy a new android phone for the next few month!
would also appreciate instructions (or link to) for how to update the ROM.
thanks!
Raidroid seems happiest on my hero from the handful I tried so far

do you have a link where I can get it from (including instructions)?
thanks
I installed Fresh 2.1.2 a few days ago and am loving it! Looks slick and is fast.
I think in terms of speed, any of the 2.1 roms are great when the hero is overclocked (OC).
I had been using BeHero 1.2+ before the OC patch came out and it was occasionaly sluggish but after I applied the OC patch it is perfect now. LAGLESS
what i really need are links where i can download these things from...from whatever i've found, it seems to be through rapidshare.com which doesn't work...
Latest raidroid is here: http://www.multiupload.com/C54GAT6DLJ
thanks! finally found a site from your link that lets me d/load
Glad to be of assistance, is what we're all here for after all
Whatever ROM you install, I recommend that you install SpellDial to search for your contacts (it is free).
It gives you a T9-style search of your contacts. Type in the name on its telephone keypad and the you will usually get your contact listed within 3 to 4 key presses.
SenseUI already does this.

hello again
now that I finally downloaded this, I don't know how to install it!...
I have an unbranded Hero (i.e. not locked to any network)... do I still need to root my phone first etc?
where can I get instructions on how to install the ROM?
many thanks!

yup...you need root access to install ROMs. Google Search on how to unlock your version of the HERO. Good Luck!
What he said.
Google 'how to root HTC hero'
Basically:
allow 3rd party installs, dl and copy the Rom zipfile, flash backup/loading tool and the recovery image to SD, install the tool, run it, backup, then flash the recovery bin to the phone, power off, power back on holding home and power until the green on black text recovery screen comes up, wipe all, then flash from SD and select the raidroid zip
Will take a few mins to flash and reboot, reboot will take a bit longer than usual but that's it in a nutshell.
Good luck ...
ok.. so the day started off with trying to root my hero with the 'one click' unlocker...
finally d/loaded the program, ran it but it somehow couldn't find my android phone (on Win 7)...
wasted a couple of hours on above, then tried it on a WinXP machine... found phone no problem, ran the one-click unlocker and got an error while trying to 'update' (i.e. downgrade ROM)...
so then thought I'd give the 'goldcard method' a go...
followed instructions to the letter...got as far as trying to write the image on the SD card till when I pressed save (on the hex editor) and it gave me a 'cyclic redundancy error'...
not sure what the heck that means!... don't know whether it had anything to do with me not formatting the SD card when sticking it in my PC since WinXP said it needed to be formatted....
however, the instructions didn't say anything about formatting it!... tried to re-insert it and format it but don't get the format option this time....
SD card works fine in phone...
Don't know whether its to do with brand of SD card not being compatible with the 'goldcard' method (San Disk)... read that Kingston works... can't be asked with all the hassle and going out to buy a different one etc etc...
Hoping that a new ROM is released by HTC officially, soon!

Froyo for the huawei u8300

Well, it does seem we didn't have to wait that long.
I have just tested the 8500 froyo pre-release on the 8300 and everything works except for the gyro. This means that the screen is always displayed in portrait.
I know, thats not good on a phone designed to display in landscape. But hopefully someone will port the gyro drivers from the 2.6.29 kernel and we'll have a real improvement on our hands! Or someone will find a solution that forces landscape, which is almost as good.
You'll find the instructions on installing froyo here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942971
And rooting here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966624
This is surely a treat!
And if someone has any working solution for the "landscape" problems please let me know on this thread. I'll keep looking for a solution.
/Peter
Edit:
Oh, yeah, forgot one thing. The initial splash screen looks terrible (green background with a blue and red square), so if someone has any idea on how to change that for a nice xda logo or something. I would be most greatful!
Doesn't seem like gps is working either...
/Edit
Well, i can't do any programming. But some things i can acutally improve.
It seems that the keyboard layout that came with the 8500 doesn't match the layout on the 8300.
So here's an updated keyboard layout. Just replace the file named:
qwerty.kcm.bin
located in:
/system/usr/keychars/
With the one attached to this post. Root explorer will (apparently) do that for you. I haven't tried doing it with root exporer (did it with adb). But i have tested the keyboard layout and it works just fine.
Hope that helps anyone!
Please let me know if you have any problems installing replacing the file!
/Peter
Oh yeah, almost forgot, adw launcher lets you set the layout (portrait) of your desktop screens. Thats at least a little help.
edit
Forgot again... The source for 8500 is available on the huawei download site.
http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwi...d=list&flay=software&directoryId=20&treeId=0#
/edit
I flashed this rom, had alot of trouble with phone connection and such
did a nand backup using recovery-RA-pulsemini-v1.6.2.img reflashed my Boost stock updata.app then restored the nand backup, everything is working great and i have the Boost mobile splash instead of the odd one, didn't fix the gyro though
edit: GPS seems to be working fine, so fixing the gyro or a locked landscape mode is the only bug left.
I'll be following this thread very closely, with any results I get I'll be sharing them here.
I can't seem to get USB debug to work, it's either a CD emulator with the Huawei device programs or mounting the SD card. Anyone else having this issue, or is there a workaround?
OK, some progress; I've just rooted using z4root (sideload) and it appears to be working - Just backed up apps and settings with Titanium Backup.
I just downloaded the stock U8300 so now I've got something to fall back on in case of emergency. It's not listed on the Huawei website though.
So now forwards, to Froyo!
Current progress:
Downloaded U8500 Froyo ROM and installed as per instructions above, twice.
Rooted with Z4Root installed from my SD card.
Had trouble trying to get the keyboard settings over; I tried using Ghost Commander to copy it into place with root access without success. Any other options, lugiber?
I'm not really interested in using Android Dev programs, nor buying apps... is it possible to use terminal commands to copy it into place instead?
Still got the sideways screen issue as expected. GPS works, Wifi works, gyro and compass work somewhat (even the original U8300 caused some issues with North to the 'right' of the phone ie 90degrees off).
google root explorer apk download it to your sd card, install it and just remember to mount the file system as rw, theres a button at the top in root explorer then copy it over
Hmmm, no dice.
Clicked 'mount R/W' but still said /system/usr/keychrs directory didn't have permissions, tried editing manually which didn't apply either.
Are there any other similar ROMs (eg CM6 or the like) that may also be closely compatible? i can put up with the keyboard until I get the screen rotate working, and I read somewhere that some has done so... I'll get back if it works.
I just received and email from Huawei saying they have now released the source code for the U8300 on their website!! It's the eclair kernel, I presume; I haven't downloaded it to check yet.
They also have the 'Normal' (presumably generic) Froyo source code there too, if that is useful to anyone.

[Q] InsertCoin and RomManager

Hi together,
I am using HTC Sensation (as the subcategory of the forum implies) and rooted my phone a few weeks ago.
Actually I like the Sense UI and started with InsertCoin which I really like, stable, fast and updates every day ....
... and there it is - updates every day - is there an way to handle that easy. My Rom Manager can not download the updates automatically and I haven't found any info about the Premium Version can do that.
So, all the time download the file, copy to SD start RomManager to install from SD - that s***s
So is ther a way like for CM to get an easy way to update using RomManager or whatever - so I can skip the RSS Feed and Download manually stuff ?!
Thanks a lot

[ROM] Androot-N7p-rom for Nextbook 7 Premium

Welcome to Androot-N7p-ROM for the NextBook 7 Premium *ONLY.
I decided to change up some of the apps and generalize the rom in terms of its boot-animation screen. It runs on LauncherPro (just choose it as the "always"/default upon first instance of it. The Launcher that comes with the device isn't so great, but I left it there just in case.
It's based on the first known rooted ROM for this device: 'DocHoppy's ROM'. Credit for most of this ROM goes to him and to 'Wendal' for his toolset for packing the ROM (into cramfs) for the Nextbook 7 Premium device.
As such, it is a beta/ work-in-progress.
Androot-N7p-ROM v0.2
[ 146 MB ]
download here
Instructions:
*WARNING: FLASHING THIS DEVICE WILL ERASE YOUR DATA AND APPS!!!!*
Download image.
Rename file to update.img
copy file to root of SD card.
Follow on screen prompt asking if you want to run update image.
Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for bricked devices.
Here's my changes..
removed:
-youtube player <- the real youtube app is better
-explorer <- redundant
-slide me app market <- redundant now that Google's Market is installed
-quick search box <- Google Search widget is better IMO
kept/added:
-Market <- the real Google one
-root explorer - an alternative & capable file explorer
-astro file manager <- we all know it well
-quickpic 1.5.2 - a much lighter & more efficient photo organizer/viewer
-3D gallery <- some love it, some hate it
-brightness level 1.0.0 - quicker brightness changes
-ConnectBot 1.6.2 <- for those that need a SSH tool
-Officesuite full <- may as well keep it
-Titanium Backup 4.6.7 <- has some very handy tools aside from backups
-LauncherPro 0.8.6 <- may be old, but it's smooth and capable
-superuser <- because this rom is rooted
-has some of the Google Apps (go ahead and add as you see fit)
-has a custom boot animation.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Known Issue:
Apps2sd reports SU Binary out of date. Attemps to update this via superuser fails due to cramfs file system.
It's not perfect, but it does work well and I run it as my daily driver on my N7P.
Please give feedback or suggestions! I trust the pro devs could easily help me out with the little things!

Hello, first of all, thanks for your work!
I am having trouble loading this rom. it says there's an invalid image file in my sd card and if I want to delete.
Now, I don't know if my tablet is a never or older version of what you guys have...
Next7p
2.3.1
kernel: 2.6.32.27
build: v2.0.7.....
my serial is also different from alot..it starts with YF0511
any help or tips?
In Dochoppy's original rom/post he mentions that the device will need to have a serial number starting with YF1011. That stands the same for this rom, as it's derived from his.
Having an invalid update.img firmware file could be due to a number of things, but the one I have here works on my device.
I wish I had more of an answer, but by all means try out the tools for repacking the rom.
So after messing around compiling a ROM, I forgot to add a launcher, and now I am stuck in a bootloop. After the girl in the dress is there for awhile, I get a black screen, then reboot. Anyone now how to fix this? I have been searching Google, but can not find anything yet.
Any help would be great!

I had mine half dead for a short bit until i found i could go into a low level bootloader mode and recover it. I am working on getting a the tool/images i used to recover mine uploaded and such.
Download and extract n7p_rescue_kit.zip
Reboot device using paper clip then quickly press and hold reset until you get black screen with usb plugged in
When windows wants driver give it the respective folder for your os (32bit or 64bit) from Drivers folder from the download
Run RK29update.exe if it says "Found RKAndroid Loader Rock Usb" on bottom you are good but if it shows "No Found RKAndroid rock usb" repeat last step.
Either flash all of the default selected items or do just system (since bootloop is in system)
Hope this helps
P.S. If you pack then unpack your custom one you can flash JUST system using the tool but be sure to use the offsets that are pre-loaded.
use a pin to push the reset button on the back to break out of the boot loop.
If after this your rom still bootloops, try putting a different update.img rom to flash, on to the sd card. Then boot into safe mode by holding all 4 front buttons after boot. the update should be found and installed after that.
Thanks!
I registered just to thank DocHoppy for all his efforts. I have a Nextbook Premium 7 I got for Christmas from Hastings, which fell into the YF09111XXXX batch. I used Wendal Chen's RK29xxImageTools_v2.1 to unpack the firmware upgrade from the nextbookusa site. I then put the Google apks, SuperUser, Rootexplorer, and re-packed it with a custom bootanimation. Because of my serial # I couldn't use DocHoppy rom without getting that "Invalid Update" error, but using their firmware seems to work.
My next goal is to find a way to get the "Accounts & Sync" into the settings! One of my apps is getting an "Error 42" which is an Android Market authentication error... however, other apps have worked without any problems so it's difficult to tell if that's the issue I'm having.

Not sure if this rom will work for you, just guessing by your serial number. If it is to work changing between roms on these tablets is very easy. Just download the image onto the root of your sdcard, rename it update.zip (not update.zip.zip) your tablet will recognize it as an update and ask if you want to proceed. If you say yes then follow the prompts and your in business!

Just go this to day and was plesantly suprised to find this rooted rom. Just wanted toy let you know that my S/N is YF12112xxxx and this rom work prefect for me (so far) Thanks for all the work you guys have done here. Also is there anyway to over clock the processor in out tabs?
Thanks for the comments thus far!
I would like to overclock this thing too, but that might be further down the road, as priority is on getting a different file-system for the /system volume.
Version 0.4 is coming next.
FYI:
There will be a larger span of time between updates on this particular rom for the N7p, because I will be using more stable conjumbles of things from other roms for this device. This rom is more of a remix or derivative than an entirely different rom.
Again thanks for all the hard work. I have a few requests. first since we cant change the Adhoc ( using wifi from another android device) on the fly with out RW access can you please add the ability to connect to adhoc wifi in the next build? Also i love google currents app but we cant use is on our device because we don't have map's installed. can that be added as well?

Most of the N7P roms out there now have Market installed and working. Why not just install these apps yourself?
I only suggest so because for the time being, the device is limited to its minimal capacity for apps without full-on apps2SD. Besides, for a tablet like this, you want to keep the system apps to a minimum and de-bloated for performance whenever possible.

Oh I was talking about currents and maps. Both of those can be installed via market. I have them both on my tablet.
The ad-hoc networking is something worth putting in a later release though.

Plug in AC Power.
Rename file to update.img and copy to sdcard.
Click install when it finds the update.
More to come soon!
out of the three custom roms i found for the nextbook, this is the smallest .img
i love having more internal memory ill flash this when i get a chance and let you know what i think!
good job!
Not bad so far, looking forward to more improvements
This is the unit I am working on, it does not fall within the serial number range listed for Doc Hoppy's ROM and since this and the others I found are based on his I wasn't sure it would work. But its working fine so far.
Nextbook 7Premium, ID: S7JNEXT7P, Model: NEXT 7P, Serial #: Y121106... So far its running with no problems.
I was able to Root the device using SuperOneClic Version 2.3.1 (earlier versions did not work) and it worked the very first time I ran it.
Next I copied this ROM ( [ROM] Nextbook 7P [dw] Rom v0.1 ICSBootAnim Debloated & Rooted 1/14/12 ) onto my internal SD Card and named it “ update “ with nothing after it, it will be read as a .img file so there is no need to place .img after the name “ update “. I restarted the device and it read the image without any problems and I was able to update to / install this ROM. Afterwards I did a factory reset which is always a good idea after installing a new update or ROM.

Noob questions:
Not sure if it belongs in this form.
I have the same serial number range as you YF1211.
My question is how do i backup the current rom in case i blow it up?
None of the updates on the nextbook site has our serial number range.
I also sent nextbook support an email about not having a lock pattern capability and the responded quickly and said my O/S version is newer and didn't have it. Really?
Thanks for any help in advance.

I have a few requests. first since we cant change the Adhoc ( using wifi from another android device) on the fly with out RW access can you please add the ability to connect to adhoc wifi in the next build? Also i love google currents app but we cant use is on our device because we don't have map's installed. can that be added as well?

Hey thanks for the tip, go launcher and lock work great. Still wish I had a way to backup my current rom.

Titanium will do most of that for you. It will save wifi, apps and all that so when you load a new rom it will be close to the same in a matter of minutes!

p.s. Upload it and PM me the link so i can see if it works on my yf1011 LOL
nextbook 7
I have a question. are any of these roms going to work on a tablet with 0911 for serial? People are saying the roms work with 1011 and 1211, but what about something as old as mine? Also, has anyone had any luck getting a bluetooth dongle to work with their nextbooks? That is the only thing that really bugs me, no way to connect to any device except the computer.
search the threads i want to say there was someone out there with a 0911 that flashed a custom rom and everything worked but im not sure. the ones as old as 0511 have been known to have issues such as loss of soft buttons and wifi force closes. as for blue tooth you will probably never be able to connect not matter the rom, even with a dongle these tablets dont seem to have the hardware to enable usb functions other then usb sync and such. cant remember for sure but i dont think you can even charge these through the usb, someone correct me if im wrong on that.
************just checked doc hoppy's thread - here you go!
For those with a yf0911 SN#
Try this Rom. it is a test version of hoppyrom for that serial number. If it boots and works ok, I will make a fully rooted version and post.
