Default I need help!!

I am trying to downgrade my RC30 to RC29, so I can root my G1. Well, I copt DREAIMG.nbh to my SD card, but when I go to boot my phone, I get a multi colored screen that stays there, and it says no image found.

Did T-Mobile find a way to block the root capabilities, or am I bieng an idiot.

Please help.

Thank you

see thats the thing, I have gone through android-dls and followed the destructions to a T, but I get red/green/blue/white screen that has a white bar with serial0 in it.

I talked to one of the reps @ T Mobile that told be about rooting when I bought the phone on Sat, and now his isnt working......

Here's what you need
http://android-dls.com/files/upload/DREAIMG.nbh

rename this file DREAMIMG.nbh and place it on your sdcard root (the card may repeat may need reformatted -mine didn't but a friends did so try it without first).

then reboot with the camera button depressed, you should get the coloured lines, it should recognise the image. if this doesn't happen reformat your sdcard as fat32 (this is easily done from windows mac or linux) place the image on the sdcard root as above and try again.

At last count this has not been fixed! but most likely will be with the new rc33 roll out!

Let us know how you get on mate.

unfortunately, it still is not recognizing the img, the card has been reformatted to FAT32, and still no avail. The DREAMIMG.nbh is the only file on the SD card

i am on build tc4-rc30, if that helps, doubt it, but I am at a loss as to what to do. I upgraded from the Shadow, and I miss so many of the features, dont really miss WM, but oh well
