Hi everybody, I searched everywhere the forum but I can't find a solution... in the past i successfully rooted my G1, and I installed many Cyanogen roms... until the last one! I did a stupid reboot after flashing the HTC one, so... I had to root it again; no problem, I told myself... but NOW, after some steps (probably some wrong ones...) my phone boots correctly with a RC39 original T-mobile rom, and I can't change it!
If I try to boot into recovery, NO RECOVERY, I see the fastboot (like holding CAMERA button); if I hold the CAMERA button, I enter the fastboot. "Serial0", is displayed... if I try, from the fastboot, to select the typical "DREAIMG.nbh" file, after a quick "checking..." I get a "not allowed" message!!!!!!!
Really don't know where to start from... :-( HEEEEEEEEELP!!!!! :-( I miss my CG roms... :-(

I actually had to un root and and im trying to re root.
my phone messed up big time but it wasnt brciked. I couldnt get to recovery b4 I unrooted or now
I had the new radio and the newest spl 10.95.3000 or something like that. but now im back on stock. Tmobile told me they will push out the 1.6 not the cupcake to me in 3 days so i cant even wait to get cupcake to do one click...im ****ed bro i need help lol
So what happens when you type the commands in telnet for the recovery image.
I hit enter after each one and it moves to next command line. nothing else. after the final one i hangs for like half a second like it did something. but its so fast unless you pay attention you wont notice it. then i immediately hit home key then power off and try to go to recovery where it hangs. but if i don't try to go to recovery it wont hang it boots fine.
I would try to redownload the recovery image. What was the initial problem why you unrooted and want to root back.
k ill try to. Re do the recovery image. And see what happens

It kind of sounded like your recovery went bad somehow, but can't say for sure. The first thing I would have tried would have been to reflash the recovery while you still had root access but I know you already flashed RC29. Another thing you can try is the one click method and see if that will work so you don't have to go thru telnet.
I thought I cant one click root in rc29? Only cupcake?

I rooted the nexus one as it said on the "theunlockr" web site
and the process went smoothly, the phone restarted and was working properly
next thing I wanted to add the Arabic scrpt to the phone
so I did as the "android-devs" web site said I should
and it went as it says it should
up to the point where I had to reboot, I did so
and since then the phone wont open beyond the G1 logo
I tried rooting again, but it says the phone is already Unlocked
I tried removing the files I pushed to the phone by using other Command Prompt orders such as DEL and PULL, but it didnt change anything
It goes on the Nexus one logo (the colored X) or the Android mascot with an exclamation mark in a triangle!
what to do? please help!

Assuming you have installed a ROM such as Cyanogens, hold the volume down button in while the phone starts and choose recovery. In here wipe the phone then flash the .zip file again. As long as you can get into fastboot you should be fine

You first need to fastboot flash a custom recovery, then you can use recovery to wipe and flash a custom ROM.
Yeah, the ! screen means you need to flash amon ra, do a search and you will find many a thread, start here, -----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611829&highlight=amon+ra+recovery There are guides in the stickies on this section and several others available with a quick search. From there you can put a rom on the sd and flash it. Just relax, a little searching for instructions and you will be up and running.

How about, "don't mess with your phone if you're a noob and don't know what you're doing..."? The OP should have read a lot more about the process prior to trying to unlock and flash.

should I try to flash recovery image!?
Yes, you must flash the amon ra recovery. Read the available tutorials available up in the stickies in this section. The amon ra thread I linked to in my previous post also has instructions. Basically you want to download it and put the image in the same place as fastboot. Boot your phone into fastboot mode by powering on while holding the trackball. Connect your phone via usb. Open a command window in the same folder where fastboot was and where you just put the amon ra recovery image by holding shift and right clicking inside the folder and selecting open command window here from the resulting menu. Type or copy paste "fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.img" without the quotation marks. Again read some of the tutorials so you have a good idea of what you are trying to do, many of them walk you through step by step. Once you have done that you can move on to flashing a rom.

Done it
worked wonderfully
thank you for the help <3
Ok, glad you got er done. Next time and there will be a next time if you continue to play with this stuff, relax. Its almost always something that can be fixed as long as you dont pull the battery during boot or a radio flash.

yeah i did trying the basic one it had on it 1.6 or soemthing but nothing worked and after that ir wouldnt get in to recovery mode
If you cannot get into the bootloader (camera + power) or recovery (home + power), and the phone is not detected via ADB on your computer (adb devices), then your phone is bricked.
You will need JTAG equipment to unbrick it, search around the forums, there are many threads dedicated to this.
Hi...
Ok.. I was on rogers 2.2 stock, I was trying to follow instructions to install paragon, anyway, it didnt work, my phone was still working great tho.. so i tried flashing stock jh6 with the one click from the wiki here... That worked and I now have a rogers phone with att stuff loading up. anyway, I am trying to complete the instructions for paragon but I can no longer get to recovery mode.
the att logo keeps rebooting if i keep holding down vol up and down, what do I do now ?
Edit : I cant seem to even get to download mode Recovery mode always worked before, download mode was always tricky, but it refuses now
do you have adb installed?? if so run adb reboot recovery in command prompt.
OR
Take out battery, take out sim and SD card. press and hold VOL UP/DOWN. put in battery, press power. release power upon seeing AT&T sign. pray.
Works for me about 99 times outta 100 at this point!
but i prefer adb since its much more fool proof!

<captainhindsight>You should not have flashed JH6.</captainhindsight>
As per the above post, boot the phone, enable debugging and use 'adb reboot recovery'. After you get that sorted, flash the 3 button fix and never flash to stock unless stock firmware is your final destination or your phone is so hosed you have to use download mode to fix it. If you do use odin in the future then use the right one for your phone build so you don't lose your button combos.

Nor should you have allowed yourself to be photographed in a compromising position wit Courtney Love...Sorry, couldn't resist.
but I only followed instructions Everyone that asks was getting told to go try and blah blah, well that was what I was doing.
You know now I am really stuck. I did use adb and restored stock and didnt want to mess with my phone anymore, but the at&t logo kept popping up, im with rogers. I found a fix and was following those instructions when odin screwed up, it started flashing then said it failed, it happened to me once before but my combo key was working then.
I dont understand why it stopped, It seemed to be intermittent, a bunch of issues, after flashing that at&t rom.
I wish I could fix it, I am stressing out over it, ill get the stuff for that jig tomorrow and hope that works. This phone is brand new! I am not a modder or hacker, I got stiffed by rogers and samsung with the voice dial over bluetooth issue, they wouldnt take the phone back.
I would love to have the att logo gone, rogers froyo 2.2, and broken bluetooth.. Its better than a paper weight. Please help me ! You know what.. I can live what that logo.. I just want to get my phone operational.
Goodnight, and thanks for your help.
i'm guessing you didn't flash the 3 button fix that opcow suggested before doing anything else?
if you can get into download mode, flash this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=812434
No I didn't, in its forum it says if you had no problems initially with the 3 buttons, this is not for you. Thats what it said! I was told I shouldnt have done that and should have flashed the 3 button fix after the fact.
I just bought resistors, ill be home later to try and force download mode.
Thanks for your help, I am not as upset as I was yesterday, I was tired.
I can't seem to get the Update.zip to work and now my ds7 only shows the cwm rec boot loader. Pls hlp me. Thank you.
So i did some reading and what i did wrong was factory reset from the settings menu not cwm. No instructions were clear how to fix my mistake. Help would be awesome. Any help i could get can be rewarded money. cwm 3.0.2.0
OMG, i also did a factory reset and now it is stuck on cwm, can't even get into fastboot mode
GUYS, please help.. this is bad as I've been searching the forums for an answer and all i see is to try fastboot.. thanks in advance

Don't worry guys, I almost went crazy just now thinking mine was "bricked" as well when it really wasnt. Restore with the following method will fix it
DO NOT FORGET to press both volume + and volume - at the same time so that your computer will detect it as a NVFlash device and the nvflash method (with batch file) will pick it up as a driver and reflash your device to stock. I made that mistake as well
