I just got my hands on the new G1 that's been marketed for the Canadian provider Rogers. The phone doesn't get released till wednesday.
It runs the 1.5 firmware (customized for the Rogers brand).
Wondering if anyone is interested in a dump off this phone.
Yes we are interested in a dump of that freaking phone
Please dump I will be glad to give it haykuro if you cant get in contact with him
What's the big thing about the Rodgers G1? Been hearing a lot about it on here.
It's an "official" version ROM with the HTC custom applications like Exchange. Kind of like Haykuro's 6.0, but fully working.
I'd like to know the same thing.... who says it's running anything different than the vanilla cupcake ROM?

We know this for sure? Would be nice if it had some fully working un-watermarked 'Rosie' features... Yeah... I need to go to bed...

Rogers is claiming that it's HTC branded firmware. I'm sure the OP can confirm. It's definitely not Rosie, that stuff is unreleased alpha-quality code.
I believe it's been confirmed numerous times that it has exchange from HTC since it's not a "with Gooogle" phone.
sadly every dialog is suffixed with ',eh' - all occurances of 'about' have been replaced with 'aboot,' and the 'ou' naming scheme has been implemented for words like colour.

Correct. There is no mention of "Google" anywhere on the phone. I've attached a few pictures.
But since I'm a noob at the whole android thing, I need some help dumping this ROM.
- From the searching I've done, I'm guessing that Nandroid 2.0 is the tool to use?
- Do I need root access to do a ROM dump?
Any idiot proof guides out there I can use to get this done for you guys?

Yeah it's going to need rooted for a full dump. Does it have fastboot? (power + camera)
But we also know what most of this firmware is going to be like, you can probably get away with an "adb pull /system system" and get us most of the stuff we need to start hacking on it.

whats the scoop hows 6.5 whats the difference? fill me in case if i download i cant go back to 6.1
Thanks for the link. It worked fine for me, and didn't take very long. 6.5 uses a lot more memory than did 6.1, but no problems.

hmm, I thought 6.5 would take a windows 7 effect giving you more features with less required resources...I cant wait for the official to come out for Sprint...

The differences between WM6.1 and WM6.5 are worthwhile, in my opinion...but better resource utilization isn't one of the benefits.
Disclaimer: My opinion of "worthwhile" may be different than others...but I can't imagine anyone preferring 6.1 over 6.5 unless minimum resource-utilization is their primary criterion.
Hey guys,
Possibley an ignorant question but this is my first window mobile device. Despite searching there is just too much info for me to figure it out on my own.
Is this a good version of WM 6.5 to update my UNLOCKED Touch Pro 2 with or will it re-lock my phone to T-mobile? I am in Canada am currently on the Fido network.
Also I am running WM 6.1 currently and have never upgraded a phone before.
I appreciate everyone's helpful advice.
Thanks,
Dan
So what happens to all my purchased apps? Do they transfer over? Coreplayer for example, I paid like 30 bucks for that. Would I lose it if I go to 6.5??

If you got a serial number, you probably are covered. But you might want to contact vendor first to make sure.

I haven't had a problem so far (with many different roms flashed). The paid-for apps accept the same "key" or serial number as I've used before.
Of course...that doesn't mean that all apps-companies are as nice....so yeah, might want to check first.

I designed a cricKet banner I want to put on my phone but it says my hboot is locked
I am wondering the same thing. It's probably in the boot.img right?
I believe that requires using flashrec, and you also have to mak the image into a special rgb format. there's posts on the G1 boards on how to do it.

to be honest I have no idea, but they will be older stuff, so more than likely wont be has useful to everyday users. But if something happens to your device, you have the stock versions there where you can downlaod and restore to device.
But I am not an android developer and i have never looked into the files, and so I can not tell you what the difference is.

It wasn't a wind-up. That guy has a Desire Z (he did a very comprehensive tear-down), and he's deep into s-off and hboot etc. So if anyone knows, he does. I believe he's IntuitiveNipple on IRC.
If I were you I would ask this question over on the G2 forums, where there's a lot better chance of finding someone who has done it.

Hey All,
(I'm not responsible for any damage that may be caused by flashing this)
I have a great news for all of us. I was stupid enough to test it myslef first
So, here I present You the engineering hboot for our lovely device.
It's ripped from quite old DesireZ dev rom, namely: 1.05.0.0, it laid on my drive for week or so
Here's the proof that phone booted corectly, I suggest You to backup all your data.

[Q] after trying to delete main google account my phone stuck on "droid" screen
I just wanted to change the main google account to enter the market. I just made a little search and I sth. says that "open root explore, go data=> system => find accounts.db and rename it accounts.db.bak" I've that this and nothing changed. Another one was saying "Go Applications=>Manage Applications google apps clear" I've done it too but no difference again. then I see this vid /watch?v=aFinbsXqTE0, system=> framework => rename framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk.bak" but after the "force close" the phone reset itself and stuck on "droid" screen.
somebody tell me what to do, please

Part of the forums rules is not to use foul language by the way, I don't care but some people might so you should refrain from doing so.
As for your problem, you will probably have to follow the above post's advice. I don't understand why you couldn't have just changed the account through the market? Why bother with root explorer and deleting/renaming potentially crucial files? Makes no sense.
Finally, I got some answers! I feel like I'm in Fringe or sth.

My phone came from Germany and I live in Turkey. There are so many taxes and prices are higher and higher.

I remember that it was firstly opening as windows m. (white back, green front) and then turns a screen that loads android and keeps going. I guess that means ROM. how do we do hard reset? or reflash? thanks.

Then sorry for the word. I hope that It wouldn't be problem for the admin. actually in the subtitles of the movies, they translate it as "hell", "damn" or etc.
-story again
I used it with my simcard at the first week when I get my phone and entered the market with a HTC sense account. But after the first week my damn operator closed the my phone to calling because of I haven't registered it yet with a passport. Then I have to use it without the card until I find a passport and when I took off the simcard the HTC sense passed away and when I tried to open market it asked me the password of the account and I had no idea about it.
