Followed instructions above. Downloaded RC29, extract and copy to sim. Pressed camera+pwr button, press power button and it updates. Status bar completes and few seconds later, it shows--- "Update Terminate", "Update Failed". I tried with sim and w/out sim. Still the same.
What seems to be the problem here?

No extracting! Just put the whole zipped zip file or .img on the root of the sdcard (not in any folders)

please i make the first step but the pc didn t reconize the phone like adb
so what can i do

I am sorry, but I laughed when I saw how difficult you made this, really, it's actually a lot easier. Just if you are at the 'Welcome to XXXXX' screen touch all four corners of the screen (Above the 'Change Language' screen) clockwise. It should just go to the home screen without changing anything or flashing anything

The four corner trick will only work on some firmwares

Did a NBH restore to RC29 just to try this... it didn't work.
And also, how will the G1 make the read that there are four fingers on-screen if it only reads two fingers at same time as a maximum? (try a touch point tester on any G1 rom avaible there, and tell me if one of them reads more than two fingers, I'll be more than amazed if so).

Also, tried RC30, RC33, CRC1, CRB43, DRC83, and those are all the original T-Mobile firmwares that I know for T-Mobile, and also, the trick doesn't works on all them.

Not multi-touch, but just pressing ONE corner with ONE finger clockwise. And maybe it doesn't work at rc29. so what, it worked for me and it's just my opinion for those that have the same firmware as me. But thanks anyway for those who doesn't have my firmware and doing a NBH-restore (What was not neccesary) Also I am using FroyoCreamSandwich and it worked there and with the most Froyo, Eclair and Gingerbread firmware versions

However, I don't know whether my T-Mobile is US version of UK version. It is made in Taiwan. So how do I check it?

Unlocking the HTC G1 from germany!

Hello,
I new here, i'm from germay, and i only found a way for unlocking USA Phones.
Now my question is if anyone knows a way hot to unlock my phone which is from germany and also locked on german t-mobile.
Sorry if there was this question before but i havnt found it.
Merry Christmas! tollmar
Afaik the german g1 do not have a Netlock or Simlock, only the austrian have. I rooted my german g1 with a goldcard.
yes,yes,bastards is right, you need a goldcard and root our germany G1 canbe very easy , do it ,you can
My german G1 never had a Netlock. Are you sure that your one really have it?
And the first Android Devices released here in Austria also never had a Netlock, the G1 and the Magic (at least the Vodafone ones).
Well i mean the Austria one But t-mobile austria and german is the same
SO anyone got an idea?
I tried to unlock it with a code i get from a site. But it havnt worked..
Now there is not any longer the screen where i can enter the code..
Is it normal that after 1 fals entering i cant enter it anymore ?
When i Start the phone now, i just see the screen to log in google account, but cause the handy is not unlocked i dont get connection to it.
What shall i do?
Which release are you on? On 1.5 or 1.6 you could just skip it for now and use wifi later, after activating it in the settings. If it's older you have to search the forums, I've seen a few threads about that.
Well the its the fact, that the phone isnt UNLOCKED... I asked at HTC and they ment if the phone isnt Unlocked i cant logged in Google!
The best solution
I performed this procedure during rooting my G1 without a T-Mobile data plan. I don't remember who published this info so I can't give credit where it's due. I found a root kit along with specific instructions here: http://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/Opera...oot-G1-even-if-it-has-1-6-android/td-p/237395. Once you downgrade then upgrade to 1.5 or cupcake, you are within the 'security hole' to root you G1. In order to proceed from this point, you must have a data plan or follow this procedure to enable wifi and log into google. Also, this process works without a sims card. Here goes.
Activate Stock G1 over WiFi
I've seen a few guides around the internet in regards to activating a G1 over wifi without a data package, and decided to test it myself. Since it worked, I'm compiling the information that I've gathered into one easy-to-read thread.
Standard disclaimer:
Bricked phones, not my fault.
The Setup
1x Stock G1 running cupcake, this phone has no root modifications on it.
1x USB cable
1x SD card, at least 128MB
The image file to downgrade to version RC29 of Android, download here
ADB for your computer:
Linux Download
Mac Download
Windows Download
Windows Only:
Windows Drivers for Android (XP only)
--End Setup--
1. Ensure that your SD card is formated FAT32, and place the DREAIMG.nbh, that came out of the DREAIMG-RC29.zip file, in the root directory of the SD card. (No, DREAIMG is not a typo.)
2. With the phone off, insert the SD card into your G1.
3. While holding down the camera button, turn on the phone.
3a. You should see a rainbow screen, followed almost immediately by a gray screen. (mileage and colors may vary)
3b. One of the lines on the phone should read: "Press power button to start update image".
3c. Press the power button
3d. Wait for the entire process to complete, do not interrupt! It will tell you it is done updating.
4. Reboot phone.
Download the appropriate ADB file for your system, if you're on a Windurrs machine you'll need to download and install the Android drivers as well.
Ok, we're done rolling back to RC29; and we have access to the 'sploit which gives us terminal access without seeing the terminal.
Until I tell you to later on, do not touch the screen for any reason. During the rollback process the screen has turned into hot lava and will burn your hand if you touch it. If you can't resist, and touch the screen not only will you be sans one digit but you get to reboot your phone and start over.
You should now be at this screen:
<pic>
5. Hit <enter>, type "reboot"(no quotes), and hit enter again.
5a. If all went well your phone just rebooted, yay good thing!
6. We're back to the last screen.
7. Plug your phone into your computer using your USB cable.
8. If you mistype this step or it doesn't work(because you mistyped), you'll need to reboot your phone and try, try again.
9. Hit <enter>, type "setprop persist.service.adb.enable 1"(no quotes), hit <enter>
9b. If all went well you should get an error message saying something like "cannot dial 7387767 7377478.7378423.232.362253 1, it's not an emergency number. This is a good thing, we hope.
10. Set your phone down.
11. Open a terminal on your computer, and navigate to the folder containing the adb file you downloaded earlier.
edit: First cd 'drag and drop the folder Tools into the terminal window. I will copy the proper directory path.
12. If all is well, you should be able to type "adb" and get a big screen of options.
13. Type "adb devices".
13a. You should see the following: <pic>
13b. If all you see is "list of devices attached", and nothing below it, reboot your phone and move back to step 8.
13c. type "adb shell" (no quotes)
14. Copy and paste "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.Settings" into your terminal.(no quotes)
15. If your copy+paste-fu is strong, you'll see this screen: <pic>
At this point you're in. You will see the 'Settings' window allowing you to set up wifi, and connect to google data and hence the internet.

Obviously, my g1 was unlocked, after my first attempt.

Very big thx for ur help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Greetings Marc!

Detailed guide for Rooting.

I have done this on a Windows 7 64-bit PC. If you have a Linux, run *.sh instead of *.bat
Required:
1. A formatted micro SD card.
2. Fully charged phone.
3. A windows PC.
4. Android SDK.
5. Backup tools to backup existing data on your Android phone.
Create GoldCard:
A GoldCard turns your device into a generic device, thereby allowing modifications like installing another firmware possible. There are different methods to create a GoldCard but I found this the easiest:
1. A formatted SD card is necessary for this. A GoldCard is nothing but a formatted SD card with modified CID. Insert the SD card in the phone and format the card (Settings -> SD Card & Phone Storage -> Unmount SD Card -> Format SD Card).
2. Download “Klutsch’s GoldCard creation tool” from here. Run this tool as administrator. (this tool is windows only)
3. Enable USB Debugging mode in your phone (Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging) and connect the phone to your windows PC.
4. Click on “Get CID” Tab and copy the CID that is generated. In case you get any error, select MMC0.
5. Open the link “http://psas.revskills.de/?q=goldcard“, enter your email id and the CID. You will then get the GoldCard image to the mentioned email id.
6. Download the GoldCard image to PC, from the GoldCard creation tool, click on ‘load GoldCard.img’, select the image that you just downloaded and click on “Patch MMC”.
7. Voila, you now have your GoldCard. Please do not use this card for any other purpose till the rooting process is over and it’s time to downgrade the OS.
Remove the GoldCard and use the primary card till the GoldCard is needed. (not necessary)
Downgrade the OS:
Download the following packages before starting this process:
• Android SDK (copy the SDK to C:\ add C:\androidSDK\Tools to your windows path)
• hack4legendv5.zip
• RUU 1.31 for Legend
Connect your phone to the PC ‘charge only’ mode. copy the contents of hack4legendv5.zip to androidSDK/tools directory and then run the script crackin.bat The phone will reboot couple of times and there will be lot of errors shown in the terminal. In the end look for the line showing permissions for the file /dev/mtd/mtd0. It should look like this:
crwxrwxrwx 1 1001 2002 90, 0 Jul 19 16:19 /dev/mtd/mtd0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This means that your phone is ready for OS downgrade.
Now, connect your phone to the PC in ‘charge-only’ mode and execute the file RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.5_R_Radio_47.26.35.04_ 7.05.35.26L_release_126592_signed.exe and just follow the instructions and the phone will reboot to 1.31 version of firmware. And it’s time for Legend to get rooted. There will be a few errors but don’t get disheartened.
Root the Legend:
Time to use the GoldCard. Insert the GoldCard and connect the phone to the PC in ‘charge only’ mode.
1. Download the file r4-legend-root.zip from here. Unzip the file to a directory and cd to the directory.
2. Switch off your Legend, switch it back on in ‘fast boot’ mode (keep the back button pressed while switching the phone ON). When you see that the phone has booted into fast boot screen.
3. Connect the phone to the PC and run step1-windows.bat
4. After that is over, select RECOVERY option. Fastboot screen –> Boot loader -> recovery. You need to use phone’s volume rocker to move up/down the menu and power button to select the option. The phone screen should now show a phone with red caution sign.
5. From the terminal window, run step2-windows.bat. Once this step is completed, the phone will be back in recovery mode. From the options, select ‘wipe data’ and then select the option to update the ROM, select the file ‘rootedupdate.zip’ from SD card. The rooting process will now start and after few minutes, the phone will boot with rooted firmware.
Moderators and other experienced Members, I know my editing isn't perfect here 'cause I'm in a hurry but this is the guide I followed and I was rooted within 15 minutes. Feel free to edit (Mods) and suggest (Members). Umm... does this belong to the Development section?
Fantastic guide. Really great. I had half a mind to do one myself, no need now. This should help a lot of people. It might also be worth going through the other threads, and pulling out an FAQ with links to relevant posts. I'll help with that if you like.
Get this in the stickies!

Bump. Well... can someone have this moved to the development part.
Any way to root via OS X?
I'm getting this error when trying to get the CID in the gold card tool, what am I doing wrong?

* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *

Im also getting the same error as tecchtalknews and have no idea what is causing it. ps im using a sand disk 2gb sd card that came with the phone, and yes usb debugging is on.

[Q] Update questions (2.1) (2.2)

Hi forum - I updated my GT540Go to 2.1-update 1. V20a a few months ago using the kdz method and i think i rooted it, I have the superuser icon but some apps say i still need root access??? and would like to go to 2.2 openswift (newest version with most bugs fixed) with recovery and overclock.
Now when i connect to PC Suite IV it says i have an update available so my first question is what will it update my phone to if i do it?
I have now read/watched everything i can find about flashing to 2.2 but it all still looks too complicated, Is there a proper step by step guide anywhere that i can use with some confidence?
Please help me and others like me who are confused how to use ADB and SDK
Thanks.
Best to wait until OpenSwift is out of beta and is nearly complete then install. Really no point in upgrading now if you don't know how to do it.
I am a newb and managed to flash to 2.2 with a guide I found at the android forums. Would be happy to post it here if it might help.
Love the new rom its faster and aside from camera not saving pics and no screen calibrator it is fine.

This is a guide I followed from another forum, and posted elsewhere with some minor additions in case anyone had problems.
The guide is from a forum post at the android forums,it is NOT my work, the added bits are mostly what I have found from browsing here and from asking questions.

To install this ROM you need to have fastboot enabled on your phone. If you have Android 1.6/2.1 installed from LG, then fastboot is not enabled. I will explain how to enable fastboot on your phone (this involves re-flashing/replacing your currently installed firmware):
I am unable to post links yet so you will have to copy and paste the appropriate link into your browser replacing the ** with tt
KDZ Updater Carphone Warehouse Unlocked.zip can be downloaded at h**p://goo.gl/7aRTc - A link to a zip archive with all the files needed to flash to Android version 2.1 with fastboot (Carphone Warehouse Unlocked)
KDZ Updater Europe Open.zip can be downloaded at h**p://goo.gl/BOcYT - A link to a zip archive with all the files needed to flash toAndroid version 2.1 with fastboot (Europe Open)
Download the version that best applies to you, if you live in the UK, I'd recommend you download the Carphone Warehouse Unlocked version, whereas if you live in Europe, I'd recommend the Europe Open version (simple right? )
I live in the UK and used the open rom from Europe as the Carphone Warehouse rom would not install
Now, how to flash these versions; I'll explain in detail how to flash the ROM's from starting with backing up.
Instructions to install ROM with Fastboot:
1. Before you start, make sure you backup all your data by installing the z4root.1.3.0.apk file onto your phone, then open it and choose 'Permanent Root'. Your phone will root and reboot. Then go to the Market and install 'MyBackup Root', open it and do a backup of your apps and personal data (contacts, sms, call log etc.) Once this is done, go to Settings>SD Card and Phone Storage>Unmount SD Card, a notification in the notification bar should appear saying 'SD Card safe to remove'. Remove the battery cover and remove the SD card and store it in a safe place. Then continue to step 2.
2. Extract the .zip file you downloaded to your computer (e.g. your desktop). Open the folder and install MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser (msxml.msi).
3. Once that has finished, install LGAndroidDriver_WHQL_ML_Ver1.0_All_Win7.exe which are the drivers so your computer will recognize your phone.
4. Next, open KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
(i) Change 'Type' to '3GQCT' *THIS IS A MUST, THE UPDATE WILL NOT WORK OTHERWISE AND YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE*
(ii) Make sure 'PhoneMode' is set to 'DIAG'
(iii) Browse for the 'V20B_00+Fastboot.kdz' file.
5. Prepare the phone by enabling USB Debugging by going to Settings>Applications>Development>Enable USB Debugging and connect the phone to the computer via USB cable and wait for the drivers to install for the phone.
6. Click 'Launch software update' and do not use your computer until the update is complete. The update will take roughly 10-20 mins to complete.
If you have a problem with this try a different rom, this guide offers two to choose from.
Instructions to install CyanogenMod:
Once the update is complete, your phone will reboot, what you need to do is power off the phone and whilst the phone is off, press and hold the 'Camera' button all the way ANDpower on the phone, make sure you hold the 'Camera' button. The phone will display the LG logo and disappear, then display a blank screen. The phone is now in fastboot mode!
Now you want to download this file: Flashing CyanogenMod.zip and extract it to a folder called 'Android' (without the quotes '') on the C: drive (you'll probably need to make this folder yourself.
1. Now open CMD with administrator privileges (Search for CMD in the start menu and right click on 'cmd' and click 'Run as Administrator' )
2. Connect the phone to your computer via USB cable and wait for the necessary drivers to install.
If when connected with a usb cable the computer says "waiting for device" and nothing else happens try installing the fastboot drivers. You can do this by going to the control panel of your pc, from the Windows start menu, opening the list of devices and where you see the one representing your phone (likely, as was the case with me, it will say android and have a yellow exclamation mark over it). Different versions of Windows do things slightly different but what you need to do is simply update the driver by choosing the icons properties box choosing UPDATE or INSTALL DRIVER and when asked pointing it to the folder where you unzipped the drivers.
3. Then go back to the cmd window and type:
Code:
cd C:\Android
(i) Then type:
Code:
fastboot.exe -w
(ii) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe erase system
(iii) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe flash system system.img
(iv) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
(v) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe reboot
4. Your phone will now reboot with CyanogenMod 6.1.1 (Android 2.2.1). The first boot might take longer than a normal boot.
If your phone stays at a blank screen you simply forgot to do one of the above steps, in which case simply repeat them. It is likely if that happens that you simply forgot the flash boot image instruction.
5. You can now re-insert your SD card and go to Settings>SD Card and Phone Storage>Mount SD Card
Enjoy!
The instructions for flashing both the firmware with fastboot and flashing CyanogenMod are included in the zip archives called 'Readme'. I'll update the links so that you'll always have the most up to date version of CyanogenMod available for download, note that if you choose to update your phone you will loose all your data including apps etc. so backup before you update
And that, with a few comments added by myself, is the guide.
Once you have set your phone up the way you want power off your phone. Hold the HOME and POWER buttons down while the LG logo appears and you will see a menu appear on screen.
Using the volume down key to navigate the different menu choices, and the camera button to select an option choose the BACKUP OR RESTORE option and from the sub menu that it will give you choose BACKUP.
This will make a backup of your phone AND all your data, if you ever mess up an update or think you have damaged your phone in the future simply holdthe POWER and HOME buttons down and when the menu appears choose the RESTORE option
Perfect.

Either one will be fine. Those are just for temporary Rom because they have fastboot. You wont be keeping them.
Sent from my GT540 by MBt
little question... how long does it takes to complete the process? my phone is on download mode for like 30 minutes.. kinda nervous here, its stuck at:
3GQCT : wParam = 205, IParam = 0
btw, internet should be on?
What!? You sure u followed the instructions very carefully? Using the KDZ updater tool and correct settings?
yes, followed step by step
What happens if I cancel the process?
Well...which step are you on at the moment?
Step Complete : C Drive Erase
Wo wo wo...so it's done? Finish flashing v2.1 on ur android with fastboot?
dont understand, its done?
Well...what's happening on screen in the updater? Does your phone reboot now? No more safe mode?
If it is rebooting then it's done. Now all you have to do is get into fastboot mode which means holding CAMERA + POWER when turning on your phone.
on the phone is still download mode and the last line on the updater is:
3GQCT : wParam = 205, IParam = 0
Did you uncheck "Mass Storage Only" in the phone before you flashed? That may be ur problem....or try unmounting the SD.
yea, I think mass storage only was off, and sd card isnt in
What about USB debugging mode? That needs to be checked.

[GUIDE] Rooting HTC Wildfire (Froyo)

THIS GUIDE WILL HELP YOU ROOT ANY WILDFIRE WITH HBOOT VERSION 1.01.0001/1.01.0002
This guide is in fact a combination of two other guides:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130044
I take no responsibility for whatever may happen to your phone.
To root, you first need to gain S-OFF, this part is taken from the first thread.
So here we go,
- Before doing anything, make sure you have the latest HTC SYNC on your PC (get it from here).
- Connect your phone to PC and sync all your data (contacts, media, docs...etc.)
- Disconnect your phone, then uninstall HTC SYNC, but you must leave the drivers on your PC.
(i.e. Uninstall the htc sync program only, not the drivers)
S-OFFing the Device
Downgrade to HTC Froyo WWE for AlphaRevX "now named: Revolutionary" (HBOOT 1.01.0001)
It has been confirmed that AlphaRevX "Revolutionary" tool is not S-OFFing wildfire (buzz) 2.2.1, with HBOOT 1.01.0002!
Therefore, downgrading the HBOOT to 1.01.0001 is must for the meantime, to get an efficient S-OFF.
Lots of people seem to be having issues when trying to downgrade their Wildfire from a carrier-branded version (HBOOT 1.01.0002) to unbranded WWE (HBOOT 1.01.0001).
So, here’s a small package to help you do this.
click here.
If you have HBOOT 1.01.0001, you can skip to the step entitled Revolutionary
Extract this package somewhere you can find it, like your “Desktop” for example.
Step 1: run step1.bat from the package. This will downgrade your MISC partition to allow for the RUU downgrade.
At the end, GoldCardTool will start up, to allow you to create a goldcard which you will need before starting Step 2.
How to deal with Gold-Card Tool:
1. Switch off your phone, remove your microSD card.
2. Insert the microSD card into your card reader, connect it to your computer and format the card to FAT32 file system.
3. Insert the card into your HTC Wildfire and power it on.
4. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled on your phone in Menu > Settings > Applications > Development.
5. Connect the phone to your computer via USB and set the mode to charge only.
6. Launch Gold-Card Tool on your computer and click ‘GetCID’.
7. Copy the CID code from the text box and click the link shown below that text box to open it in your browser window.
8. In the browser window, enter all the details required and submit that form.
9. You should now get an email from PSAS. Open it and download the ‘GoldCard.img’ attachment.
10. Now set your phone’s USB mode to Mass Storage.
11. In Gold-Card Tool, click ‘Refresh’.
12. Select your mounted SD card from the drop-down menu saying “HTC MMC:”
13. Click ‘Load Goldcard.img’ and select the file downloaded in Step 11.
14. Click ‘Patch MMC’ and your Gold Card will be created. You may exit Gold Card Tool once done.
After you've made the goldcard, and patched it, continue with step 2.
• Step 2: run step2.bat from the package. This will downgrade your ROM version to HTC WWE Froyo for Wildfire (unbranded).
If you get a Customer ID error while doing this, your goldcard is not working!
Create a new goldcard and re-run step2.
Revolutionary
* Steps:
1st You need to get to: http://revolutionary.io/ to download the tool, and to get your “beta key” which you’ll get in a pop-up window in the same download page after you click the download link for (windows version).
The “beta key” is a must; the tool won’t work without it!
You’ll be asked to provide your phone “serial no.”, typically it should be something like HTXXETDXXXXX, and you can get it from:
Settings --> about phone --> phone identity.
Now, do the following:
1. Run latest version of HTC Sync on your PC and connect phone in HTC Sync mode and sync all your files. Remove HTC Sync and not the drivers.
2. Reboot phone.
3. Settings->Applications->Development->Check “USB Debugging”.
4. Run Revolutionary and connect phone to PC in “Charge Only mode”.
5. Revolutionary should recognize your phone and show your Device Serial number.
7. Type out the “key” in the Revolutionary tool software, keeping in mind the upper and lower case letters and press enter (you can copy / paste the key).
8. Revolutionary should start doing its job and you’ll get S-OFF in less than 90 seconds.
9. If it takes longer, just wait for the 15 minutes mark, if nothing, then reboot phone and retry.
(Some members got S-OFF after multiple tries)
Now, to get to actually rooting the phone by installing clockworkmod and subsequently, the superuser app.
1. Ensure that your SD Card is FAT32 then copy this to the root of your SD card: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=548407&d=1300751790
2. Go into HBOOT(switch off phone and switch on while holding down the volume down button) and click yes when it asks you to update
3. Remove the img file from your sd card and add this file: http://bit.ly/su2361ef
4. Go into HBOOT and click Recovery!
5. Click install zip from sdcard (or some thing like that) (Protip: Navigate in the recovery with the trackpad, not the power button!)
6. Click choose zip from sdcard
7. Locate your zip and let it update
8. Boot into your now rooted phone and install ROM Manager from the market.
9. Open ROM manager and Install Clockword Mod recovery (or sth like that) twice in a row (this is important to ensure proper installation)
YOU ARE NOW ROOT!!!!
Optional: Use ROM manager to install CyanogenMod or another ROM of your choosing

Firstly, were you even on HBOOT version 1.01.0002?
If you were, check if the downgrade was successful after running step2.bat
If it wasn't make sure HTC Sync has been uninstalled but the drivers have not
If the drivers are in place, I suggest looking for a solution at the orginal guide found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035
nope i have 1.01.0002 and step 1 does its stuff no problem then goldcard automatically starts up no problem with that and i patched it and everything then step2.bat comes up and starts downgrade but like its doing a bit and just closes instantly back to hboot still showing s-on 1.01.0002????

The first instruction tells you to switch off the phone before removing the SD card.
Try it again.
If it doesnt work, run everything as administrator, else, go to the orginal thread and post your problems there

Shouldn't.... but I did it on a XP 32 bit so maybe you could try running in compatibility mode...
i tried that but no luck..... i also tried on my windows vista 32bit with no luck
Finally got this process to work for me after numerous unsuccessful attempt. Main problem was I was using Win7. Switched to Win 3.1 and things worked.
Also in the guide the step
7. Copy the CID code from the text box
Need to me clarified to ... "Copy the reversed CID code from the text box "
After that all good and am now back on Hboot 1.01.0001.
Thanks for the guide.
Like a charm. Thanks.
Thanks for the information

make sure that you're using the proper controls...:
After boot you select items by vol keys and choose by hitting the power button.
In CWM you also select by vol keys but choose by hitting trackball
Have you done so?

At first boot it might take a while to boot up. If it remains stuck on the logo I'd suggest to reinstall but do a "full wipe/factory reset" from inside ClockworkMod (even better format system and data before).
BTW Which ROM are you trying to install?
Thank u very much for ur help....I appreciate u people very much....
Bt actually that rom was not good that's y I was facing that issue

IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH CMD and are on Windows 7 (or similar), make sure you start CMD in admin mode.
Otherwise it doesn't work.
1- Make sure the files are stored in a folder in C:\ (or somewhere very short unless you know command line). For example: C:\goldcard
Copy the files from the folder they came in and throw them in there.
2- Go to start and write CMD. Now DO NOT single click the program or type enter. Instead do CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER
This opens it in Admin mode. (some pop up confirmation may appear).
3- Navigate to the folder by writing "cd C:\goldcard". (Without the quotation marks of course. Use the name of the folder you created in step number one.)
4- write step1.bat
That should do it. The same applies to step2.
