It's pretty simple actually......
1) download the latest Dexter Mod and rename the file to Update.zip
2) Place the Update file on your sd card in the main or root section.
3) Shut down your A7 (make sure it's shut down completely, not just in standby)
4) Hold the power button and release then hold the power button down again. You will see a message appear that instructs you to hold the power button for 5 seconds to boot into recovery. Once it says it's booting into recovery release the power button.
5) use the home button to pull up the recovery menu. Use the back button to scroll down. Use the search button to scroll up. Finally use the meu button to select an option.
6) Select factory wipe. Then select apply update.zip. Let it do it's thing and then reboot the A7. That's it!!!!
If your A7 locks up during boot just hold the power button down until it shuts down.
Enjoy
Thanks for your help...I will try it tonight and report back how it works...Again,.thank you

then i found this guide. and damn it help me to root my phone in a very easy way. just follow what this guide tell you to do and you wont brick your phone
I FOUND THIS TO BE THE EASIEST METHOD OF ROOTING A G1 AND INSTALLING A STABLE BUILD OF FROYO. (or any new roms for G1 out there)
THIS IS DESIGNED FOR THE COMPLETE BEGINNER!!
I HAVE THIS ON MY G1 WITH NO PROBLEMS AT ALL!!!
Rooting Your Stock T-Mobile G1 (HTC DREAM) AND INSTALLING A STABLE ANDROID 2.2 FROYO BUILD. (CYANOGENMOD 6.0)
**Please make sure your phone is completely charged before doing this**
**I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. Do this at your own risk**
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was pretty worried about bricking my phone, but it is almost impossible if you do this step by step and correctly. Just make sure to follow the steps!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prerequisites:
**ALL DATA/APPLICATIONS WILL BE REMOVED FROM YOUR PHONE AND IT WILL BE RETURNED TO FACTORY SETTINGS AFTER THE FOLLOWING STEPS. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SYNC SET UP FOR YOUR DATA SO THAT YOU CAN RECOVER YOUR CONTACTS!**
(TO SYNC GO TO SETTING > DATA SYNChronization > make sure AUTO SYNC is checked as well as contacts calendar and gmail)
Here is what you will need:
1) Your Phone
2) A Computer
3) USB Cable
Download the following file onto your computer:
(DO NOT UNZIP OR CHANGE ANY FILES!)
Original DREAIMG.nbh
Cupcake Update.zip
FlashRec.apk
Amon Ra’s Recovery Image
G1 Radio
G1 HardSPL
Generic G1 ROM w/ Root
CYANOGENMOD 6 ROM
GAPPS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I) Formatting the SD Card and Downgrading to RC29
(YOU WILL DELETE EVERYTHING OFF YOUR SD CARD!)
1. Plug your USB cable into your computer and then plug your phone in.
2. Mount your SD card by sliding down the notification bar and selecting mount.
3. Go to My Computer and access your SD card.
4. BACKUP ANY FILES THAT YOU WANT ONTO YOUR COMPUTER. VERY
IMPORTANT!
5. Go back to my computer and right click on the drive that is your sd card. Click format. Choose FAT32 from the drop down and hit the format button. This removes all data from your memory card.
6. Once the format is complete: drag and drop "DREAIMG.nbh & Update.zip files that you downloaded into the sd card. (DO NOT create a folder or anything, just put it right in the SD card)
7. Unmount your phone by going through the notification bar and then unplug your phone from your computer. Them turn off your phone.
8. Press and hold the camera+end key until until you see a screen with colored bars, then let go. This is the bootloader. The screen will turn gray with blue writing on it.
9. Hit the end key to start the update. DON'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL THIS IS DONE!
10. Once it is finished press the trackball to reboot. (If it goes back the the colored bar screen and doesn't reboot try holding the home+menu+end key, if this doesn't work, just remove the batter and put it back in and turn the phone on)
11. Once the phone is on, just turn it back off.
12. Now press the Home+End keys until you see a triangle with an exclamation point in it (this is recovery mode). Once you see this let go of the buttons.
13. Open the keyboard and press the ALT and L buttons, and then Press ALT and S buttons. Now wait until the phone reboots (it will do this automatically once the update is applied) (Don't worry if you see picture of a box and a g1 or a chip with an arrow)
14. Once the phone reboots, go ahead and and go through the welcome guide and get to the home screen.
II) Flashing a Recovery Image
1. Now with your phone at the home screen, go to settings>applications> an turn on unknown sources.
2. Now go to settings>SD card and Phone Storage>Unmount SD Card
3. Now Click format sd card and go ahead and format your sd card. It will automatically remount after.
4. Go back to the home screen and plug and mount the phone to the computer again as you did earlier.
5. Place the following files you downloaded earlier right into the sd card: FlashRec.apk, and Amon Ra's Recovery Image (Again not in any folder or anything, just on the sd card)
6. Once they are transferred go ahead and unmount and unplug your phone from the computer
7. Go and download a file manager from the android market (I suggest LINDA FILE MANAGER)
8. Once downloaded, open the file manager and go to SD card, and click the FlashRec.apk file and then click install. If it asks -> Tell it to use package installer to open it (it probably wont ask but if it does)
9. Once installed click open (it will be on bottom left of screen)
10. Then click the button that says "backup recovery image"
11. Once it says "backup complete" open the keyboard and type the following: /sdcard/recovery.img
12. Then click "flash custom recovery image" and wit until it says "Flash complete"
13. Go back to the home screen and then turn off the phone.
14. Turn the phone back on into recovery mode by holding down the home and power buttons. You will see a bunch of text on top of a black background with an HTC logo in the middle.
III) Partitioning and Loading the latest radio
1. Scroll down to "Partition SD Card"
2. Click "Partition SD"
3. Press the Home key to confirm
4. Use the trackball to increase the "swap size" to 96MB then press Home key
5. Make sure "EXT2" is set to 512 MB then Click the Home Key
6. Make sure "Fat32 size" is set to remainder and then press the Home Key and then the phone will begin partitioning.
7. Once partitioning is complete scroll down and select to "SD: ext2 to ext3" and then press the Home key. Wait for it to upgrade.
8. Once the Upgrade is complete hit the "back" button to get back to the main menu. Then scroll down and select "USB-MS Toggle" and wait for it to enable.
9. Now plug the phone into the computer again. Now transfer the files downloaded earlier: G1 Radio, G1 HardSPL, Generic G1 Rom w/ root, to the phone. (AGAIN KEEP THE FILES JUST IN THE SD CARD AND NOT IN A FOLDER OR SOMETHING)
10. Once the transfer is complete hit the Home key to disable the USB-MS toggle and return back to the main menu of recovery mode. Unplug your phone.
11. Scroll down and select "Flash .zip from SDcard"
12. Select the G1 Radio file (named OTA Radio or something like that) and hit the Home key to confirm. DO NOT SELECT ANY OTHER FILE, THE RADIO MUST BE DONE FIRST.
13. Once the Radio Flash is complete Press Home+Back to reboot the phone. It will then say "writing radio image" and then reboot back into recover mode (this will take some time)
14. Once back into recovery mode, scroll and select "Flash zip from SDcard" again.
15. This time choose the SPL file (named somthing like "Latest G1 SPL.zip") and then click the HOME KEY to confirm.
16. Once it finishes, hit HOME+Back to reboot once again. It will say "writing boot image" and then reboot
back to recovery mode.
17. Once again scroll to "Flash zip from SDCard" and choose the Generic G1 Rom file (Named something like Generic G1 Root Rom.zip) and click Home to confirm and wait for it to finish.
18. Once finished it should go back to the main menu and say"Install from SD card complete"
19. Now click on the "Reboot System Now" choice. (Home+Back)
20. Wait for the phone to reboot back into Android.
IV)Installing CYANOGENMOD 6 (Android 2.2 Froyo for HTC DREAM)
1. Once back into Android, turn the phone back off.
2. Hold the Home + power keys to turn the phone on and get it back into recovery mode
3. Select "USB-MS Toggle" and wait for it to enable
4. Once enabled, plug your phone in and transfer the CYANOGENMOD6 and GAPPS file ito your SD card/phone. (again not in any folder, just in the sd card)
5. Once the files are transferred, press the Home key to disable USB-MS Toggle and return to the main menu, and then unplug your phone.
6. Scroll down and select "wipe" and then select "wipe data / factory reset" and then hit the Home key to confirm. Wait for it to finish the wipe. It will say "Data wipe complete"
7. Hit the back key to return to the main menu.
8. Scroll and select "Flash Zip from SDCard"
9. Select the CYANOGENMOD 6 ROM Named something like "update-cm-6.0.0-DS-RC1-signed.zip" and hit Home to confirm and wait for it to finish.
10. Once finished it will go back to the main menu and say "Install from SD Card Complete"
11. Go back to "Flash Zip from SDCard"
12. Select the Gapps File Named something like "gapps-mdpi-FRF91-3-signed.zip" and click home to confirm.
13. Once it is finished you should be back at the main menu. Select "Reboot System Now" and wait for the phone to reboot.
14. The reboot will take some time, (roughly 5-10 minutes) so don't freak out. Just put your phone down and go do something =)
CONGRATS! YOU have successfully rooted your G1 and installed CYANOGENMOD 6 (ANDROID 2.2 Froyo)
thanks worked great
Step III-20. Completed all the way up to there and now it seems stuck on the ANDROID logo with the white flash scrolling thru. Holds the logo for 10 seconds with the flash moving left to right, then the flash pauses on the "D". Repeats. Did I miss a step?
I can use the camera button and the power button to reach the bootloader screen. It's not the multi color screen. It's the white backgrown with three green Androids on it. It will not allow me to use the home and back buttons to go to the recovery mode though.

Restarted the process but now I am unable to log onto my G1 due to no service. I can not reach my google account to register the phone. I am trying to research on how to bypass that now and no luck.

No service. I unlocked my cell almost a year ago to use a local SIM card but the phone crashed. So now I am stuck with trying to bypass the login AND update from 1.0

So I had to start over. Now I am at the login step. Tried to install ADB onto my computer but I can't seem to get it to "recognize my device".
Is there a ROM flash that just deletes this step when you load it instead of loading 1.0? I know this question came up before.

if your can't bypass even on adb using your computer. why don't you just borrow a sim from your friend or anyone (for a while) that you know, that have a sim card with a data plan or 3g connections. or if your in a country with a prepaid service. just load your sim with an amount that you can avail 3g connection.
Yeah I went to the local market to buy a SIM card that will transmit data but they were out. Just tried a local SIM with no luck and tried someones AT&T SIM out of their iPhone with no luck as well. I'm going to try the ADB route again.
Got a local SIM card (Roshan) and used its data plan to unlock my G1. Started the process from the beginning but made it to step IV-2 (Press home and back to power up in Recovery mode.
It will not power up by that method.

i did everything as this says and im stuck at flashing CM6 with a status 7 (as user above) , i also tried another tut in the cianogenmod wiki (ttp://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod#Rooting_the_HTC_Drea m_2) same error:
but i dont know maybe something is missing from the root part of that tut?
i understand it has to do with nand partitions, but since i already tried with death spl , and also hardspl, then i dont know what else to try.

boot normally, go to settings, about phone, if you are @ android 1.0 then your dreaming.nbh file worked as it should, if not telenet wont help if your still @ 1.6 or 1.5.
if this is the case go to your bootloader screen (camera + power) and try again. make sure that the dreaming.nbh file is spelled correctly! also make sure it isnt in any folders on your sd card

[Q] Stuck on System recovery (which doesn't work))

Hello to all of you!
My Tattoo has gone crazy lately...he deleted all my contacts, pictures and reset the settings...all when I switched it off and then turned it on. Ok I survived...
But yesterday when I turned my Tattoo on...he was stuck on the Tattoo screen and it was restarting itself on and on again...with no luck...then I pressed the buttons for hard reset, then the picture of the yellow exclamation mark appeared, and now I'm stuck with this Android System Recovery-which it's not working, I can't select anything, none of the buttons works...What Can I DO???? I have never made no changes to my tattoo, so it's not rooted or anything.
the system recovery says:
Android System Recovery
Use trackball to highlight;
click to select.
reboot system now [Home+back]
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
___________________
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
Could someone tell me what to do now...please
Please someone?? I really don't know what to do!! I need my phone! PLEASE
Try downloading stock ROM from here http://htcpedia.com/official_rom_htc_wwe_for_htc_click_tatoo/soft/htc-tattoo-rom/download.html
Then try installing this ROM from Windows...I thing that you need to have htc sync also...
Thank you for helping me, I really appreciate it.
But that's the problem, my pc won't recognize the phone, I have installed the htc sync but when I insert the phone from usb nothing happens. and i can't go into the phone to check if usb debug is on or off. I also tried with adb but it says device not found....so I think there's nothing I can do...

Can you see some of these options? Did you try to download some of custom ROM and rename it to update.zip and then put it in root of sdcard and apply it? Im little confused with this....
Yes I see all of these options, but the problem is I can't select them or anything because none of te buttons work! I tried to put the ROM on the root of the sd card, but it make no sense because I cant select the option apply update.
Try Power+Home button (that is for recovery menu, but if your tattoo isnt rooted you should see only triangle with exclamation sign inside), then plug usb cable and then try installing stock ROM from post above...
With power+home button I see the recovery menu...it's just that nothing work in the recovery menu. I tried plugging the usb...the PC won't recognize it.
I told you I tried everything... I guess it's a hopless case
What about this?
To reset the phone using phone buttons
1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the HOME and BACK buttons, and then briefly press the END CALL/POWER button.
2. Press the ENTER button to begin the reset process.
Tip If your phone hangs or freezes, remove the battery then wait for a few seconds, and then re-install it. After re-installing the battery, turn on the phone.
This one is the same but has a pic of tattoo...
http://www.howtoreset.com/HTC_Units/HTC_Tattoo_Hard_Reset_Soft_Reset.html
ha...this was my first try...unsuccsessful...it's like he can't do nothing else-just showing the triangle with exclamation mark and if I press home and power goes into recovery which doesn't work....that's all he can do..
F*uck i'm all out of ideas...
Yeah...don't tell me...

Here is what you can do:
After you started RUU wait until you get the prompt to proceed or until you get the usb error and don't close the application
Go to temp folder to get the rom.zip file
to go to temp folder type %TEMP% in the run command bar
copy the rom.zip to your favourite place and rename it to CLICIMG.zip
Now you can close the RUU install
place CLICIMG.zip in root of memory CARD and turnoff your phone
Boot in to HBOOT mode (power button + volume down keys)
wait for few seconds and install would start
I hope you have a memory card reader to place the file in to it
key for this to work is, you need to have right Tattoo RUU to get ROM.zip or have a goldcard to work any Tattoo RUU derived ROM.zip
True, i forgot about that
Thank you fo helping me. I tried but it doesn't work. The volume keys won't work...
can you check if you could boot to fastboot mode (hold both power button and back button)
From there you can
either reset your phone (menu button)
reboot to HBOOT (action button - centre button)
change to HBOOT (volume down button) - l know it doesn't work for you
or turn off the phone (left button)
If none of the buttons work, then you might need to send your phone to the doctor
Nope...it doesn't work....not to the doctor i will send the phone to the trash...

[HELP] Restoring of brick Huawei U8800

Restoring of brick Huawei U8800.
All do at your own risk! I am not responsible for your machines!
Today I was able to magically (just wonderful, because it found the time at which there is a chance to run the update) to recovery from a brick Huawei U8800 (corrupted bootloader + recovery not run + in a pink screen not mounted hard drive + when trying to update the written Update failed! I spoke to a service center, they said the warranty is not the case and we must change the motherboard (the cost of 3-4 million BYR, new at the MTS salon cost 2.9 million BYR )
What and how I did:
1) To restore I'am using the firmware B162 Android.
2) Format the micro SD card that was clean (I was 8 gb, 2 class and be sure to FAT 32) and unpack "dload" folder and ".txt" file(with a strange name) from the downloaded archive to sdcard.
P.S. I say that not all flash drives can operate restore, I have like three went, normally only one.
3) Insert the micro SD into the phone and pull out the battery.
4) Hold down the Volume (+) and power up, hold and connect the phone via cable to your PC, your phone will be switched on and the logo appear, then turned off my phone (missing logo). So, when the logo will disappear (ie the phone will turn off) and immediately hold down the volume (-) the volume (+) and power up.Main that the updating process can start only one time after the logo was gone, if after a few times in a row press both the volume keys and power up, updating does not start, it is necessary to re-clamp the volume (+) and the power up, after the disappearance of the logo, both the volume and the power up of ... I have to go to the upgrade process if you wrote "Update failed!", try again (I went with 2 times).
5) After a successful update, the phone will reboot, on reboot he should loaded the standard blue recovery.
6) Turn off the phone from the computer, insert the battery, hold down the volume (-) the volume (+) and turn on, wait until you get a pink screen, release the button and connect it to your computer. You should see a new device and to define a disk drive with a folder "image". If we define - rejoice!) If not, then you need to install the driver on the internet enough to the driver, as well as the wood in my going to the Android SDK, not sure ...
7) Thus, we can assume the phone repaired) Download recovery 4.0.0.5 and unpack the archive and copy the file "recovery.img" to a folder "image" with the replacement. A man does not 4.0.0.5 recovery loaded, it is strange, but recovery 5.0.2.7 normally loaded
8.) Disconnect the phone from the computer, pull out / insert the battery and try to enter the recovery (volume (+) and power up).
9) If set, then everything is OK and can now be sewing. I still put 2.2 Geno v8.4 + software package from Google, but I recommend again read all instructions on the firmware, to avoid problems!
Good luck, hope that helped someone, he sat on the forums more than one day, but have not found a solution.

Just thought I would mention it, if you connect the pink screen to Ubuntu/Linux, it will most likely mount.
Just tried this recovery method on a bricked U8800. Didn't do anything at all. Must admit that it was bricked in a way that i didn't see anything at all on the screen. Neither did i notice anything in dmesg on a linux machine.
Help
Hello.my huawei u8800pro v.2.3.5 brick after install official ice cream sandwich.I followed the procedure and now I have a new removable but I can't go to recovery mode!!can I install a new rom?

My fix works for your messed up phone!!!

Try this I did and it worked to get mine booting after a bad
update.
I messed around with it using several methods of getting it to
boot into download mode until I finally got it to do it. I think
I left it plugged into the USB, powered it down until I saw the
charging screen, then I proceeded to play with the different ways
to hold the buttons to get it to download mode. If you are
persistent enough and read a little on booting methods to get
bricked phone into download mode you will succed if not then your
not for the world of trial and error... the main thing is do the
first steps I said before until it works
1. Get into Download Mode (WITH THE PHONE PLUGGED IN) by
following the steps below
*Turn off the phone until you get to the charging battery screen
(keep in mind, your phone is currently PLUGGED IN)
*Press volume up and down, and power all at once.
*As soon as the screen turns black, release your power button.
2. Unplug phone from USB
or try
2. Remove everything from your phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your computer WITHOUT the battery, as you
have already taken it out in the last step.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download Mode.
7. Unplug phone from USB
any how try try try until it works
Once in download mode
Get your files together for your phone, and use Odin 1.85.
Plug into Odin and make sure it shows yellow and its added!
1. Now if your files have like 3 files and the exact .pit file
for your phone
I found mine here
http://www.droidevelopers.com/showthread.php?
11722-Download-OPS-amp-PIT-files
2. Click the PIT button and browse to your exact .pit file for
your phone *It should now have added a check in the re-partition
box under the options area of the Odin window. If not CHECK IT!
***If you don't have your .pit don't worry about this unless you
suspect, or have a bad partition
3. If you have just 1 file just click the PDA button and load the
file. If you have 3 then you will load the PDA file in PDA, the
Modem file into PHONE, and the CSC file into CSC, there are way
too many phones to link all the files so get you stuff together!
4. Now hit start.
5. When done and the phone shows the first sign of starting up IE
Logo or whatever... immediately unplug the battery from the phone
to shut it down.
6. Now put it back in and start it in Upload mode by pressing Vol
Up, Home at the same time then the Power button.
7. As soon as the phone shows the first sign of starting up IE
Logo or whatever let go of all buttons and using the Vol Up down
Choose the Clear Cache option and go through and make sure you
factory reset it if you can just for good measure.
8. Reboot
9. Now when the phone shows the first sign of starting up IE Logo
or whatever take out battery again to power off
10. Now put it back in and start it in Download mode by pressing
Vol Down, Home at the same time then the Power button.
11. Once in download mode Hook up to Odin again and flash it with
a root kernel for your phone. Do not ask me just find it. I did
it took time but I got all the files together over several days
of reading and collecting the correct ones.
12. When done and the phone shows the first sign of starting up
IE Logo or whatever... immediately unplug the battery from the
phone to shut it down.
13. Now put it back in and start it in Upload mode by pressing
Vol Up, Home at the same time then the Power button.
14. In most roots you will now have a advanced or mounting
options and more options to use.
15. I cleared the Cache again, Cleared the Davilik Cache, Went
into a option and actually mounted the cache formatted the Cache.
16. Use the option now to restart the phone...
And mine started up installed the apps and I am up and running,
nice and smooth and no issues so far
I hope this helps out someone whos just about to go off the deep
end, as I was there and patience and trial and error came up with
this step by step way to recover mine. Thank me by hitting the
little thumbs up THANKS button below this post.
And if your so happy your phone is up show your appreciation by
