OKay before you guys blast me im confused; some post say have a rooted phone to do this in this section, yet other say mt4g is not rooted yet? which is it?
i just switch from iphone and im lost here. if rotted can i get a link to a tut for total newbs? and how in the hell do i change that damn touchtone/typing sound ?
a picture/screenshot friendly tut would rock!
It's been rooted, a tutorial is here (not a pic tutorial, sorry)

If it's 2.2.1 then you've received the OTA package (or it came pre-installed.) If not, there are a lot of resources on forcing OTA in the Android Development subforum here. You'll find pretty much everything you need to know about rooting your MT4G there
Good luck!
Please post questions in Q&A section.
ty, now can anyone tell me how to change the yping and touch tones? can they be different or they must be the same?

hi I'm new to this forum I just bought htc dream and I saw on youtube there's a way to get android 2.0.1 on it. Is that true? How can I do that I also saw that the camra didn't work. Is there a way to make it work? And I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

You can have a camera just not the android camera go to the market and download (Camera Magic)
what's the diff between the two camras? And where to I get the files and tutorial for getting android 2.0 or 2.0.1 on my htc dream?

I like Camera Magic better. It is faster, more resolutions to chose, and full screen viewing.
why 2.0.1...?
If I were u I'll go straight for the gold with
2.1 I like it better try kingklik.

Or just wait for CyanogenMod 5 in the next week. It will be a fully working 2.1 Eclair ROM.

lol, there's really no "best" ROM. It all depends on what you want. If you're a noob you would probably want to try out something stable and CM's will be the first stable & fully functional 2.1 release for the G1. I might recommend waiting for that. In the meantime you should probably root your phone if you haven't already and install a 1.6-based ROM. (Almost all of them are stable - you can pick just about any of them.)
when is that coming out? And how do I root it is there a tutorial?
Im guessing you don't know much about this don't you?

Alright let's begin shall we.
This Youtube video will get you into the root procedure: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8F7FVISb7w
-------------------------------------------------------
Now once you do that you will need to find a nice stable, quick ROM.
Search : Super D, Cyanogen, or Zach and Xillus200.

Hey all, just recently picked up a used MT4G. Before I do anything to it, I'd like to start from scratch and just reinstall the most recent stock software, make sure anything the previous owner did is cleaned up.
I have no experience with Android and would love if someone could point me in the right direction, perhaps with some directions.
Thanks a ton!

Sounds good to me...where do I start?
The best bet is to do a factory reset. If you haven't done so yet then go to settings then SD and phone storage. Then select Factory data reset.

I was able to get a lot of help from some great people last night. Phone is now rooted, kernel'd and ROM'd!

If that's the jellybean one I think it was removed by the mods as he stole someone else's work and passed it off as his own.
