I am not really sure what happened. I have JF1.51 installed on my g1 and haven't had any issues at all with it. Today for some reason my phone stopped recognizing the t-mobile network. I tried multiple sim cards and haven't had any luck. My wife has a completely stock g1 and her phone works fine even with my sim card in it. I have tried going into call settings and it just says network error. I know that the phone is still under warranty, but I can't downgrade back to rc29 because I won't be able to re download the updates since I can't log into my gmail account. Does anyone have any ideas on what I should do? I really can't afford a new phone. I could just install one of the roms that doesn't have any theme modifications, but not sure if they would noticed I have an updated spl and radio and apps2sd. Please give me some ideas. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ive been having some problems off and on with my phone not getting any service. I would restart the phone and it would work for a while. But now I cannot get service anywhere and the phone seems to not work at all.
Has anyone else experienced this or are there any tricks to try and fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as the device seems to be now useless. Thanks
Yep, same with me. I've just upgraded ROM to Faria's last version and still not working the dam phone func
My provider is Vodafone-PT, and i have a Dual Simcard. Even when the other sim is off (unregistered on the vdf network) my hermes simply doesn't register. Not even the emergency number calls are avaiable!!! However, all the other funcs are working fine.
I think it is a softw issue, but i'm still not getting to the point to solve this problem...hope some masters can help us.

plenty of things you can try and troubleshoot with, hard reset, check for bad blocks, flash new radio/ROM.
As XtreMe_G said. I've been running Faias for the last week or two with no radio problems. HR problems, now thats another story. Mke me wanna go back to wm06.
...my problem now is WORST...i've tried to downgrade SPL to unlock CID and SIM, but for somehow the active sync crashed during the rom upgrade. Now i only see the tricolor screen, and active sync doesn't recognize my term!!!
The tri-color screen is bootloader mode and active sync will not recognize your device at this point. Start the ROM upgrade again and go through it. Sometimes the cooked ROMs might flash otherwise always, shipped roms are capable of being flashed from bootloader itslef.

I bought a G1 from someone off of ebay and he said it doesnt recieve signal. I figured I could buy and maybe fix it. The radio is not updated but they wiped the phone before I got it, so now im stuck at the google account sign in with no service. Does anyone have any ideas or do I just need to call up HTC and send the phone in for repairs?
thanks and God bless
try to go through the process of rooting the phone... That may fix some of the issues
but how can I root the phone if i cant get pass the Google account screen? Ive done the bootloader already...nothing happened....i flashed to crb43...that worked but it still didnt solve anything....ive tried to update the radio to the newest but it says "no signature (5 files)"...verification failed. Is there anything that I can do?

what do you mean can't get passed the account screen?
like you try to sign in and you can't?
If you still can't sign in, try using a different ROM like TheDude's and try bypassing the sign in. Maybe you can get it to the main screen and try running some debugging tools and such.

yea cause i dont have any service cause the phone doesnt get any signal....like thats how i bought it..something is wrong with the radio (i guess)...like i just want to use a different ROM that you can skip the account process on so i can ROOT then try to upgrade the radio to see if it will work....but dont you have to have ROOT in order to flash stuff?

well if you are trying to create an account from your phone with no signal, just to sign up on a computer.
the screen does give you an option to skip the sign in process.
what build are you on?
go HERE to get help on bypassing the activation.

Only for ADP1
op: Look in the dev forum helpful threads sticky for a link to activating w/o google account. Also, as a previous poster said, you might want to just do the whole rooting process. Downgrading to RC29 will revert both the radio and android build.
The official OTA CRB43 includes the new radio. If that's what you flashed and it didn't help, flashing the radio isn't going to cure your issue.
Haykuro's IonR2 also gives you the option to skip sign in.
hmmm so i guess i just need to call up htc CC and make up some bogus story saying that cupcake fried my radio....cause i cant even get signal...
i actually had 2 bars last night... so i was able to sign inn and use wifi...but it just randomly cut off....and i wiped my phone....without thinking
so i guess ill give htc a call
Lost signal now at RC29 w/old radio
But I cannot figure out how to proceed. I have been rooting modding for a year now and suddenly lost my signal while the phone was just sitting on my desk. loaded recovery still didn't work, went back to RC29 stupidly and now cannot get newer ADP build loaded because I cannot login past account screen and my Adb isn't working because my phone is not recognized via USB. Is there a secret to that pre-account login? Thanks for any help I have a $400 paperwight right now.
You should be able to enable wifi and login to google. I just went through this process since I don't have any service on the sim i'm using in the g1
--fg
what was the selllers name o ebay. i did the same exact thing and when i got it i updated everything and nothing worked.. i sent it in to htc cause it was under warranty. i told them the truth and its been repaired just waiting on fed ex to deliver it. they replaced the main board and antenna wire
similar problem
sorted: the issue was sim card being faulty.
i recently got an old UK G1 from my brother.
It keeps saying 'no service'. I have downgraded it to RC7 for purpose of rooting but it still says 'no service'.
I was able to bypass initial registration process using adb.
The phone is connecting well to wifi. It is also able to search 'available networks' but does not connect with tmobile.
I have asked for another sim card (it will take a few days to arrive) thinking that the problem is related to sim card but could i be wrong?
Is this problem related to hardware?
Is it possible that wifi, bluetooth and searching network works well and still the hardware is faulty?
what are your thoughts?
Hi, I have a rooted G1 running a CyanogenMod rom and some theme or other (I think it is AeoroBlack or something like that?) Anyway, I've been having some issues with my phone being able to connect to T-Mobile's network, both the data (both Edge and 3G) and the phone signal. I've done some troubleshooting on my own and with tmob tech support over the phone, and it's at the point that my next step is to do a "sim swap." there is a very good chance, though, that I'm going to have to take it into a T-Mobile store sometime soon, either to get a replacement G1 or a new sim card. My question is, if I shop up with a rooted, modded, and themed G1, are they just going to tell me I'm S.O.L., and I voided the warranty? Even though it is still under HTC's warranty, and I have T-Mobiles equipment protection plan? My question is, if I do bring it in, should I switch it over to T-Mobile's official build before doing so? If so, is there an easy way to get everything back to the way I have it after I'm done with them, or if I get a new phone? Thanks for your help!!!
I would just leave your phone in the car and take in the sd. If the new SD doesnt fix it then I would think about unrooting it.
Have you tried doing a wipe and reinstalling your ROM yet?
When you say sd, you mean sim, right? Also, I haven't tried wiping yet, I was about to upgrade to the newest cm rom anyway, which requires wiping. If I do that, will a nandroid backup save all my stuff, or will that take me back to the old rom? I am still unclear on how nandroid works. If I install nandroid, I have to install adb, a new radio, and fastboot too, right? Thanks again for all the help!
I work for tmobile
I work in a t-mobile store and if u come in with a rooted phone I would high-five you! but u should be fine if it is just a SIM swap. if anyone asks about the theme just say it is Fresh Face or what ever it is call(it is an app in the T-mobile app pack). Now as for getting a new phone you will prob have to send it in, but for a SIM swap they shouldn't give u any trouble after the initial troubleshooting questions. Point is most t-mobile employees wouldn't know a rooted phone if it hit them in the face.
I did a SIM swap without having to remove root, but the reps did tell me they could exchange my phone unless it was running stock ROM. I had to remove root before I could get my phone warrantied.
-I recently installed Cyanogen's new rom 5.0.8 Stable.
-After doing so I was unable to get any kind of network connection other than Wifi.
-I tried doing a nandroid but the file was accidently erase. I tried to flash the SPL and Radio again to see if there was a glitch. I tried reverting to 5.0.7 and still no data. I thought maybe if I went back to the begining I would be ok and could just update my way back up. I loaded the Sappimg.nbh from cyanogens wiki to my SD card and ran it through the volume+down method.
-After installing this I still have no wireless connection but I also have no 3g no recovery and I can't get passed the google log in screen. Also my SPL was revert so I can't do fast boot. Does anyone have any idea what I can do?
-I have tested my sim card in another phone and it works fine.
-Please help if you can I can't figure what to do with it and I think I am only making it worse if I haven't Completely broke it.
-Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I think this is an easy fix mate. Just go into mobile network settings and check the radio button next to your network provider. This will issue the relevant APN settings for your network.
Hope this fixes your issue.
I found out it was a bad SIM card cause by something in Cyanogen 5.0.8 ds stable. There has been a small number of people with this same issue that have been posting on the Cyanogen forums about it, I got a new sim card but a little weary to install the rom again... Then again most people who replaced thier SIM are up and good so...
Thank you for your help though man
i've been reading this forum for a while, but
today I ran into a problem I really can't
solve.hoping that
one of you guys could offer some advice.
Here's the deal (I'll try to make it as short
as possible):
I've got an xperia x8, which worked fine
on my previous official stock ROM 2.1.
I installed a custom ROM (froyobread v.12)today and i keep gettn notified that ''com.android.phone'' had
stopped unexpectedly.
I've done everything I can think of, but this
problem persists as long as the current
SIM card is in. After each force close, the error
just repeats itself. Here's what I know:
other SIM card works flawlessly in the
phone with the custom ROM.
The error doesn't occur until it tries to
connect to the cellular network with the current SIM
Neither a soft nor a hard reset does
anything.
As I see it, there are a couple of options:
I think The SIM card is incompatible with the ROM because it works great on my old phone n also works great when i go bact to my original stock ROM 2.1.
If anyone can offer some insight or advice,
I'll very much appreciate it!
Thanks!
Did you try a full wipe? And just btw, I have a something like 10 years old sim card and it runs ok with FroyoBread
This is a known error for all custom ROMs. There are reports from Vietnamese guys saying that with some SIM cards it got FCs.
The only solution is to change SIM card, hopefully it will be compatible with custom ROMs. I don't have any problem like this so I cannot fix it myself.
yh gravier i did all the wipes seems to happen only when i put that particular sim in.
dx exactly what i have in mind, sad part is my operator phased out all the old type of sim and replaced it with this new type which is givin me all dis problems. thanks for d help man n oh great rom
