                      (You may scoff)
                      my solution : wipe your sim card with Kleenex or napkin smeared with a little alcohol or water
                      then put it in your g1 and it may work.(50%)

                          How to check your phone is rooted or not ?
                          install a Superuser app from the market , then install a Terminal Emulator from the market. open the Terminal , type su , then press enter. if the Superuser app pops up , press allow. if you have root , a # sign will appear in the terminal on the next line. if not rooted , it will say that you don’t have permission.
                          -------------------------
                          if your phone is not Rooted, do the following to Root it :


                          1.Downgrading the Firmware

                          How to check your phone is downgraded or not ?
                          Press menu key, go to Settings » about phone. Now check your Build Number, if it’s (RC29 or RC7) then your phone is downgraded and skip down to step 2.

                          If not,
                          Download the RC29 or RC7, DREAIMG.nbh file (Make sure it is named exactly DREAIMG.nbh)
                          RC29 (US): http://cmw.22aaf3.com/dream_magic/dream/stock/rc29/DREAIMG.nbh
                          RC7 (Europe): http://cmw.22aaf3.com/dream_magic/dream/stock/rc7/DREAIMG.nbh
                          Format the SD card to FAT32.
                          Copy the DREAIMG.nbh to the root of the SD card (NOT in any folders). Make sure the filename is DREAIMG.nbh exactly or it will not work.
                          Turn the device off and reboot holding the Camera button and the Power button until the device is in bootloader mode.
                          Then press the Power button to start the update.
                          When the installation completes, press the Action key which is the Trackball.
                          Reboot by pressing the Power Button and the Call button and the Menu Button.
                          After rebooting sign in to your Google account.


                          2.Rooting The HTC Dream or T-Mobile G1

                          Once at the Home screen, open the keyboard and press the Enter key twice.
                          Type telnetd and press Enter.( The Contacts screen will come up, just ignore it. There will be no indication that you did it right)
                          Now go to the Android Market, and install Telnet by ClockworkMod.
                          (Alternatively, you can install Telnet from the device's browser. First, go to Settings » Applications » and check Unknown Sources. Then, from the device's browser, go to http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1/Telnet.apk. Wait for the file to download, then tap on icon to install it)


                          3.Installing a Custom Recovery Image

                          There are two custom recovery images available for the Dream: Amon_Ra's and ClockworkMod.
                          Amon_Ra's Recovery: Recommended
                          Download the latest version of Amon_Ra's Recovery.
                          Amon_Ra's Recovery 1.7.0 : http://cmw.22aaf3.com/dream_magic/dream/recovery/recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0-cyan.img
                          Rename Amon_Ra's Recovery Image to recovery.img
                          Copy the recovery.img to the root of the SD card (NOT in any folders).
                          Open Telnet. Press connect to server.
                          Type : flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
                          Press enter.
                          Once Amon_Ra's Recovery is finished installing, you will see # # on the screen below the line you've just typed.
                          Amon_Ra's Recovery should now be installed on the HTC Dream.

                          4.Flashing CyanogenMod Rom

                          Download the CyanogenMod 6 stable (for your phone) and also Google apps (Gapps) : http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Gapps#Google_Apps
                          Place both the Cyanogen and Gapps.zip files on the root of the device's SD card (for example : update-cm-6.1.0-DS-signed.zip / gapps-mdpi-tiny-20101020-signed.zip)
                          Boot into Recovery by holding the Home and Power button while the device boots.

                            trish, 23 Jun 2012I can't figure out where the sd card goes..can someone plz help?First, Slide open your T-Mobile G1 so that the keypad is exposed.then Locate the microSD card's storage slot. This slot is located on the side of the G1 near the green "Call" key. When the phone is open, you can see that the microSD card slot cover wraps around to the inside of the phone near the keypad.

                            goodluck

                                  hi
                                  to the G1 owners
                                  i recommend to install CyangoenMod Rom, that's so fast & Stable (V6.1.0-DS - Android 2.2.1 Froyo) & have no Bugs (at least less than other Roms)

                                  how to install it ?
                                  if that's your first time to flash new Rom to your G1, then your phone is not rooted.

                                  to do this (root)
                                  you can go there (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Full_Update_Guide_-_HTC_Dream)

                                  after that, if your phone need to flash DangerSPL
                                  you can go there (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Dream:DangerSPL)

                                  after Root & install SPL (if needed)
                                  you must download the Rom & Gapps to flash it to your phone
                                  go there to download CyanogenMod Rom & Gapps (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Gapps#Google_Apps)

                                  Now enjoy it, your G1 is so fast & stable & you can do every thing ...

                                  if you have any Questions you can send me an e-mail
                                  my e-mail address : unknownforever99@yahoo.com

                                  wish you a good time
