Make sure that your bootloader is unlocked and that your flashing gsm ROMS meant for the dream not the cdma version of the g1.

In order to flash custom ROMS your devices bootloader must be unlocked. By default the g1 ships with a locked bootloader that prevents you from installing custom ROMS. You can go to htcdev.com/bootloader select HTC dream from the device list and follow the instructions. Let me know if you have any more questions.

But I dont think that thats the problem, becouse I already have instaled ROM for two times
O and how can I unlock the bootloader when in instuction says to do few steps on phone, but i cant turn on my phone! ;(

I would also suggest try reformatting your SD card, then putting a ROM on the SD card that you know is compatible with your phone and has worked for you in the past and flash that.
Didnt work
So, will anybody help me?
At this stage I would recommend that you try and re flash your device back to stock, by installing the stock ROM that it shipped with from the factory. By doing this you will have a clean slate to start from and can then try to root the device and flash a custom ROM after that.

Follow this guide found here, start with the section: Downgrading the Firmware. After you have done that move onto the section Rooting the HTC Dream, then once you have completed that section move onto Installing a Custom Recovery Image and Amon_Ra's Recovery: Recommended. After you complete these steps you will be ready to flash a custom ROM, here is how to flash Cyanogenmod 6 for the HTC Deam. Let me know if you still have questions .

[Solved] Sticky situation!

Hi,
Without really giving it a second thought I went and encrypted my device. I didn't think I'd be stuck with this rom and/or that CWM would become worthless.
I made plans on selling this one to buy SGS4 instead, when it hits the market and I wanted to do an as proper sale ad possible.
I need help decrypting the device and if possible unroot it and installing the original TouchWiz. I'd be saticfied with a rooted device, as well, only with the original "rom".
Any help is appreciated!
AW: Sticky situation!
Hi.
I guess download mode still works.
Do shouldn't it be sufficient to flash a stock rom there?
I never did this but my guess is it will work.
Regards.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the quick reply, this sounds easy!
Can someone back this info up?
Also, where can I download the rom? samsung.com?
Re: Sticky situation!
Hey
He is right..
You can download it from sammobile.com/firmwares or you can google it..prefer the firmware for where you stay..
That ways you'll remove the root and also factory reset your phone..

If you can reach download mode (shutdown phone then power + home + volume down) it should be fine.
Just ensure you're flashing the correct ROM.
Like tchindalia suggested. Find your Rom here.

PS: To leave download mode hold the power button for quite some time.
Which one should I pick? I mean there are none from EU, or it me just being blind?

Make sure you select the GT-I9300 and not GT-I9300T
Oh right.. And now it's narrowed down to two alternatives! Does it matter which one of the Swedish ones I choose? VDS or HTS?
AW: Sticky situation!
In general it doesn't matter.
It's just a question of Bloatware.
Think about the CSC as android+carrier-ware.
If you have a backup of your esf partition there is a small file with your device csc.

Have you ever tried encrypting? There's no such thing as a decrypt option..
Anyway, the reason why I still haven't marked this thread as solved is that I still haven't tried it out yet! :-|

I suppose you ran some other rom than CM then, because the option stays the same.

Help here please, badly needed
hi Everyone,
Im using S3 I9300 rooted with stock rom
I was going through this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1772234) where it showed how to swipe ur sd card as internal memory and vice virsa but required a kernel with int.l something which I dint have .
In order to follow the instructions I downloaded the file; MVLALH1_Insecure_kernel_CWM and flashed it on my phone. then I downloaded the file from the post (extsd2internalsd2_mattiadj_and_infx_6) and flashed it through CMW but my phone dint read my SD card as internal memory so I read more
EXTRACT FROM THE POST:
THE GUIDE
First of all make a nandroid backup!! I'm not responsable for any problem! You make this procedure at your risk!!!1. Format external sd card from your pc as fat32 or extfat
2. Copy attached zip in you external sd. Choose the right zip. If you have formatted your sd as fat32 choose _fat32 version, if the filesystem is extfat choose _extfat version
3. Go into recovery
4. Flash the zip
5. Reboot and....enjoy your memory increase!!!!
I'm on official jelly bean with kernel with init.d support but the mod seems not working or my kernel/rom does not support init.d
1. Flash the mod
2.Install script manager from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...51bGwsMSwyLDNd
3.Open script manager, click on browse as root then ok
4.Choose the file name 11extsd2internalsd located in /system/etc/init.d and click on Script/Executable
5.Now tap on Su, Boot and Save
6.Reboot your phone and enjoy!
[/COLOR]
So I went on the second paragraph of instructions and downloaded the script manager and went to the 11extsd2internalsd file. I was told to select the option script/executable but couldn't find any option having both so selected executable and then selected SU and BOOT and then restarted my phone
Now Im not sure when it happened but my S3 is not detecting my sim card thou my sim is working perfectly and I have no clue how to fix it
please can anyone help me I tried to explain as best I could but still please ask if u want to know more cuz right now my s3 is without sim card

Did what you guys suggested yesterday but what you said wasn't entirely true. Flashing the stock firmware from download mode worked fine, but it actually just put me in an even more sticky situation.
My current situation: device still rooted and still encrypted, only difference is that it won't acceptt my old encryption password. In other words; I can't use the phone at all.
Any ideas to this problem? Is it possible to clear the internal memory and start from scratch perhaps?
Cheers.

Did you factory reset after the flash?

[Trouble]Apps crashes

Hello! i have a samsung gt-s5830i stock with some problems!
when i turn on the phone there are a lot of windows that says that various apps (samsung home, touchwiz...)
have stopped unexpectably. when the homescreen is locked i have no broblem, but when i unlock the phone i can't do anything because of the error windows (also the background of the phone iss black while i see windows, like there is no launcher).
I already tried to full wipe the phone but nothing changed. I didn't try to root, to change rom or doing something, I was paying with the phone when this happened.
Do you ever had this problem? how did you solve it?

Hi guys, help please!!
Im using a samsung galaxy s2
I am a complete novice.
I was trying to gain root access. but before that i had to install an insecure kernel, I think i chose a bad 1 as i don't know what im doing Kernel_I9100XWLP4_INSECURE.tar is the kernel and when it wont reboot, just shows the start up screen then goes blank, i then tried to install secure kernel Kernel_I9100XWLP4.tar to see if it would fix it but same problem.
Does any 1 fancy holding my hand through the stages to fix my phone please?

Volume down is download mode.
Hold menu, power and volume up at the same time.
If you have a custom recovery (likw cwm ClockWorkMod) then you would be able to flash a dorimanx kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1617219) I would download a 7.x version (newest) and flash it through cwm. Or, of course, if you want a different rom then flash the rom like Muthzer the One said.

superuser is something else then CWM. Superuser is often needed to give root access to apps.
When your in recovery, what does it say on the first line? Maybe Android recovery system or ClockWorkMod, something like that.

Do you have a backup of Your ROM..
If yes then restore it..
seems like your device unable to mount data partition. Which is preventing the phone from booting.

First of all, m sorry for that much delay..
and I don't think it will brick your phone as you are installing a rom that is built for your device, or is made for your device....
