Hi.

I've just installed the JF v. 1.51 and could boot but then I tried to make my sd card in two partitions with appstosd2 and when i rebooted my phone it couldn't. Im just stucked at the G1 welcome screen and can't do anything. I also tried to wipe it but it doesn't work too.

I upgraded to JF 1.51 from RC7.

What can I do?
 
Hold old is your G1? That's an old ass ROM. You might want to find a newer one that works well with the newer radio.

In your case it could be the partitioning of the SDCard. You'd need to install the SDK and pull some logs from it so we can see what's going on.
 
As Ward said your jf is old. You might try CyanMod, if you have a card reader and can boot into recovery you can put the cyan files on your sd card and upgrade your phone. You will need a card reader to put the files on your sd card. Here is a link to CyanMod.

I got into the recovery, but it looks like my isnt rooted anymore. I cant install anything anymore through the recovery program?
 
If you have lost root, here is a good wiki to follow.

To see if you have root, go to menu>settings>about phone>and tell me what Mod version it says you have. If it still say jf you haven't lost root.
