G1 Won't get past Android screen after applying 1.5 manually

[t h u g]

ya your getting it than, right now that arrow point to the rom is going to go away and reboot your phone and everything is going good by the way i hear it hopefully...

1. Rename the archive to update

2. Copy the file to the SD Card.
Note : Connect the phone to desktop and then transfer the file. Don't take out the SD card and use the card reader.


3. Turn off the phone. Press and hold HOME and POWER button. The phone will start in recovery mode. You should see an exclaimation sign when it starts.




4. Press Alt + L, it will take you to the boot menu,




5. Press Alt + S, to start the update process. It will take a while so be patient.








6. When the update completes, it will prompt you to press HOME + BACK to reboot.






7 . After you reboot, the update will finalize and automatically reboot.

Alright, been at least 15 minutes, and the android logo is just flashing the letters, gets to a point, stops and then the screen for a millisecond or so just goes black and the re-loads the Android logo and it keeps doing it in an endless cycle

Umm well just wait for a couple more minutes and see what happens because seems like you have it done already but hasnt boot up completely yet...

[Muffin :D]

Yeah, same thing keeps happening with the Android logo. I noticed when I first updated the first time I got the image of the yellow arrow going onto a chip or something, like above, but this time around, I didn't get to that point.

Should I reattempt the update or what now? Thanks for your help, btw

[f.m.l.]

ya it wont hurt to redo the whole process again, maybe this time it might work or you can try to download the other file and see if that helps

Going to try and reupdate it like the same method before.. I can't put any other update.zip or anything on the SD because I can't get into the phone to mount the memory card

[arwen6]

oh iight than sounds good than...you cant just boot up normally without trying to update no more??

[Shontae]

I've had the update and got everything working OK, and then I rebooted earlier today, and it just went to the Android logo and keeps repeating, and won't get back into the system, all the sudden.

[Pouria]

oh i see, well are you able to update once again?? which step are you on right now??
