Speaking as someone who doesn't have a data plan, bought the G1, and rooted it, its very possible to go through with the whole process. One way is to use the adb method posted above. But to be honest, it took me quite a while to get adb set up on my computer when I did it. The usb drivers were being really weird about recognizing my phone. So it might just be a lot easier for you to add the data plan onto your contract for one day and then cancel it. For one day its like 89 cents or something. You only need to use the data plan (or adb method) when you boot up into RC29. Every newer rom has the option of signing into your google account later, so you can enable wifi first, and then go back and do it.
My advice would be to just get the data plan for one day, thats what I did when I first bought the phone. I've never used adb since I rooted it because pretty much every other command you might want to do you can do through your phone.
okay i tried this over 10x times and it just keep on saying no image found!
why is that happening?
