good idea to use androot, if you dont have data on your sim its a bit more work to root with the dreaming.nbh method as you will need adb to activate wifi and if your new its a bit of work. when your done with root you will still want to flash a custom recovery and update radio, spl, and rom

I put data plan on last night, but I cant get it to work on the G1. It works when I put my sim in an at&t pantech P500.

I can make calls, surf web , logged in to gmail all via WIFI, but no 3G data on the G1.

Is it an APN issue?

Been reading on those this morning but I cant get in to the manual APN screen.

How do I do that? If that's the issue.

Thanks!!!!!

Ok got it sorted. For futures android challedged individuals

Settings/wireless/mobilenetworks/AccessPointNames

here is a list of your APNs. Mine was empty.

HIT THE MENU BUTTON (or if your southern mash menu) this took me a couple hours to figure out.

Add the following:
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: leave blank
Port: leave blank
Username:WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
Password:CINGULAR1
Server: leave blank
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC:310
MNC:410
APN Type: leave blank


back arrow out you should see AT&T on the list.

Power off Power back on.

The phone was rooted. I rooted it again

"when your done with root you will still want to flash a custom recovery and update radio, spl, and rom"


Which ones do you recommend?

well to run any newer rom (made in the last two years) you will need to update your radio and hboot more than likely. when you power on holding home button what is the recovery you have? or what does the screen look like. also when you power on holding camera this will bring you to your secondary program loader (hboot)
write down everything on this screen and ill let you know what needs to be done to run a 2.2 rom

you need to flash a custom recovery, i recomened amonra 1.7.x what ever the newest
then you want to update radio and spl

not near a computer so google search this
cyanogen wiki root g1
skip the steps on rootin since you are (no dreaming.nbh)
follow the rest of the guide

can you still boot into rom? do you have superuser app in your drawer? if you do terminal emulator will work type
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

image must be on root of sdcard and be named correctly, note that if you are using windows it will add file extentions so name image just recovery
