Question about Cyanogen Rom - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I already went through the process of rooting my phone, and am currently running JF 1.5
So to try out the Cyanogen Rom, from my understanding all I have to do is download the zip, rename it "update.zip" and boot it like I did JF?
Is this correct?
Thanks,
Mike

yes that is correct, if it will not get past the android screen or gets pasts it, but goes to black screen then you will need to wipe and reflash the rom, but i wouldn't wipe unless it doesn't work without wiping.

Taken from the FAQ on the release thread:
1. Do I have to wipe?
You shouldn't have to wipe if coming from a JF ADP-based ROM, otherwise, probably. If weird things are happening, try wiping. You can also try the permission fixer script linked above. If you are coming from an HTC-based ROM like Hero or Sapphire, you are going to have to wipe.

So yeah, flash as update.zip, if you have issues, wipe and reflash.

Damn you!! *shakes fist*

I would actually flash the Radio first if you haven't (look at my sig for teh latest version). Then flash the Cyanogen ROM.

Do I have to flash the recovery too?

Do I have to flash the recovery img too?

Nope. But with the CM 1.4 Recovery, you can update using the "any zip" feature...so no more renaming to update.zip etc.....
Makes keeping track of things alot ezier

I second wilnotdie, using the CM 1.4 Recovery will make life a lot easier in the long run. Worth flashing it.

does this count as bricked?

i was running sensehero 1.4, i decided to try out wesgarner's beta WGBuild9 for him. it booted and all, there were some bugs. i replied to his thread and then restored my nandroid from before hand. it just sat at the initial boot logo, not either of the animations, the carrier one. i waited quit a while and then pulled the battery. tried a wipe and reboot, no dice. tried fastboot erasing system, data then reflash, still sits at boot logo. no i am watching the logo while waiting to see if a different rom (cyans latest stable) will boot.. any ideas? recovery and fastboot still work fine.

If you can get into bootloader, or recovery, you're not completely bricked.

u r not bricked if u can get into recovery and fastboot, just perform your nandroid restore, wipe and u should b good, u might have to pull the sd card and reboot without it
Since you have so many posts I'm surprised you would post in the wrong forum. Anyway since your coming from a hero rom you need to follow these instructions http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Main_Page#How_do_I_upgrade_to_the_latest_CyanogenMod.3F and that includes doing this line "Download the Android 1.6 Recovery Image (it has "-ota-" in the filename): ". Even if you have done it before you must do it again.

What does post have to do with anything?
There were some issues with nandroid that were fixed in the new version, but you must wipe before installing the backup since the ext is also backed up.

You should have wiped and what method did you do to install the wesenger rom?
If you didn't flash the 1.6 recovery image then that's your problem. It's not the same thing as RA's or Cyan's so your not overwriting those recovery images. You must flash it first then the rom all without rebooting.
I've been getting these problems a lot lately for whatever reason. Anyways, I fixed it every time by wiping, then flashing the official HTC 1.6 OTA update zip. You'll probably have to dig a bit for it, since the links appear dead on the HTC support site. From there, you can flash a custom ROM no problem.

When you search, there IS an option to give results as either threads or individual posts. I suggest taking a couple minutes just to play around with the advanced search screen... it's surprisingly powerful, but most noobs don't use it. The little drop down Search is useless in comparison.

That doesnt relate to any themes.
You cant flash themes over themes, flash the orig rom then flash the theme w/ adv launcher after.
so reflash cm 4.2.2.12 or what ever again, do i need to wipe or can i just reflash that?
also does wiping erase all apps?

I dont use cyan updater i rather do it the manual way, by going into rec then flash cyan then the theme.But then again i haven't used cyan since 4.1.11.X.
I normally just use Home+++ with donut roms instead of bothering with themes.
i get same thing with wipe:
error cant open C:\whatever (location to app)
(bad)
what ever, im not going to mess around too much, ill go back to enoch. Its a bummer that i wiped though because ALL my setting are back to stock

[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Recovery for Vibrant (FINAL! SAFE!)

First things first, if you flashed a previous version of Clockwork Recovery using Odin, FLASH BACK TO A STOCK KERNEL using this Odin package:
http://koush.tandtgaming.com//test/kernel-vibrant-stock.tar.md5
This recovery is *very* safe to use. It does NOT flash your kernel; it is a completely uninvasive recovery method.
How it works: The recovery is packaged as an update.zip that you run from STOCK recovery. The update.zip unpacks Clockwork Recovery onto the ramdisk and restarts recovery. When you reboot, it reverts back to the original, unmodified, stock recovery. So, you will need to keep the recovery on the root of your SD card as an update.zip, and apply the zip every time you want to start Clockwork.
HOWEVER, if you use ROM Manager, all of the recovery installation and management instructions are done for you!
Installation instructions:
Download ROM Manager from the Market.
Flash Recovery.
Choose Vibrant as your phone.
Accept the Superuser prompt.
On the very FIRST boot of Clockwork, you may need to manually select "reinstall packages" if Clockwork does not start. You should only ever have to do this once. It will be automatic from then on.
Watch the backup go!
That's it! This is completely painless and safe! There is no need for Odin anymore to replace the recovery or flash updates!
If you appreciate my work, please buy the Premium version of ROM Manager!
Failed the first time. Left me in the stock recovery menu and gave a recovery error when clockwork first started. Flashed again and tried to backup a second time. Looks like it worked perfect! Now we need some froyo!

Yes! That is expected! The very first boot WILL FAIL, the recovery needs a kick start to complete installation.
little tip
after I downloaded Rom Manager and had it download the recovery for my Vibrant.
After the success message I waited nothing happened so you may have to select to manually reboot into the recovery, then select "reinstall packages" to finish the installation.

Please make sure you guys are on wifi. T-Mobile is caching your webpages and serving you older versions.
when i flash the recovery.. and reboot it goes to the stock recovery i hit reinstall packages then it goes to clockwork.. but after that if i reboot it goes back to stock... hmm thats odd..

That's how it is supposed to work. Recovery is not replaced permanently. It's safer that way. Just reinstall packages to get into clockwork. Or use ROM Manager to have it handle everything automatically.

If flashing manually, yes. Just flash using ROM Manager though, and it will handle that all for you automatically.
I can't permanently replace the recovery until the kernel source and whatnot is released for the Vibrant.
Hells yeah!!! Will someone PLEASE put a shipped firmware out now? Like the T959UVJFD. I appreciate the life saving effort from MS_Guru, but t959uvje8 is not jiving with me and my 3g and/or wifi...
Amazing work! Excellent idea for a 100% safe recovery! Kudos!!

[Q] Sexy ASOP 2.3.2 help

I just installed this ROM on my Alltel hero. It works great! However, I'm still trying to get mms to work. Before I upgraded clockwork recovery to 3, I could use this file. But now it won't let me use it as it says the scripting needs to be changed.
I can't get this to work. My MMS has been an issue with the CM ROMS, but I had a patched file that allowed it to work on the old Clockwork recovery. Like 2.5.5. But when I put CM7 on, I had to update clockwork to 3.x.x. Now I cannot flash this zip.
It says this "Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported. Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5. It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recover. Please switch to Edify Scripting (update-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages. Installation aborted"
Can anyone help me with this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7964286&postcount=171
If someone could direct me to a fix, that would be sweet as well!
same problem when i try flashing stuff
I flashed with the old clockwork just fine for me.
Is your zip file just apn settings? There is an app called apnbackup you could use but need to nandroid back to backup
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App
I'm not sure...I didn't make the file?! haha any thoughts?
ClockworkMod 3 and ClockworkMod 2.5 can't flash the same zips.
To flash the one you want to flash, you need to either go back to ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1, or make your current zip flashable with ClockworkMod 3. To do that you can just get any zip that is flashable with 3.0 and put in your .apk and flash. There is a guide somewhere in the forums...do a search and you'll find it...in fact there was some talk in the GB thread on this idea.
*Edit* Just saw that it's not an .apk file...however, the same idea still applies. Just find a zip that is flashable in 3.0, and add the apns-conf.xml into the /etc folder in that zip.
You could also push the file to your phone using ADB or Root Explorer on your phone.

Well, file flashed, but would not get passed the HTC logo screen. I just did a nandroid, but didn't try booting into it after restoring. I am again restoring, and will try booting into it, to see if it was the backup or the .zip.
ClockworkMod 3.0.0.5 will auto format everything for you.
ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1 you have to go to "Partitions menu" and select the following:
format boot
format system
format data
format system
Essentially, other than causing flash issues with almost every .zip out there, ClockworkMod 3.0.0.5 just saves a few key presses I would go back to 2.5.0.1 and you will have far less issues.

You need another kernel. When M-Bootlader and M-radio and TWRP are installed you can install a custom rom like JDX and supersu. Check the OP of the JDX thread.

Thanks for the help NLB. I was thinking of something like that along those lines. Can you provide me with a link to the JDX rom? I searched for it and found very little, except some antiquated threads that dont relate to what I'm trying to do. And you were correct, the first thing I did was install TWRP on 5.1.1.
Unless this is the one,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/rom-jdx-1-0-t3121053
Would I then install this after flashing back 5.1.1/twrp then go with this? I'm not really sure what you meant by flashing the M-bootloader and radio, would that be after twrp gets flashed?
Look for chainfire's SuperSU beta version 2.52 and also for a modified stock boot.img . This worked fine for me. You can flash the modified boot.img using Wugfresh's advance utilities if you aren't comfortable using the fastboot flash commands.

You need to scroll down to first post section "Instructions" and follow them to the T.
Instructions
0. ensure you are on twrp 2.8.7+ for recovery!
1. flash bootloader if not already on JDX 4.0.x (download flashable bootloader zip)
2. flash radio if not already on JDX 4.0.x (download flashable radio zip)
3. reboot recovery
4. flash ROM
5. format data partition if not already on M
6. boot ROM and sit your phone down for 10 minutes (seriously, things need to finish setting up!)

I just flashed all the necessary files (bootloader, radio and now finished JDX 4.01.zip).
I'm about to do the format data part in TWRP. I go to WIPE>select FORMAT DATA then let it do it's thing. Is that the correct procedure? I remember formatting data once before and I bricked my device. I just want to make sure I'm doing this right before I blow it up lol

If you have completed step 4. flash ROM you are good to go. Type "yes" to confirm and format. First boot will take some time. Then you give it 10 minutes to set up things under the hood.

Worked! I have my led lights back, my speed and the warm phone again!
A few days later and I'm very happy with the rom. Everything I need!
