yes i have unlocked and rooted my nexus one already and i have flashed the amon ra,s recovery image.

what rom should i install? because nothing is working. i tried the alpha 21 rom and cayanogen rom and the official nexus one rom. they did not work.

how are you installing them? did you check the md5 check sum to make sure the file isn't corrupt? are you unzipping or just placing the zip file directly into the root of your SD?
anyway, since you are having trouble doing it, i would recommend you download and install the app, RomManager from the market; this app will download and then install it for you
otherwise, i would just download the zip files (ROM) again and try it

i am not unzipping well one rom worked "nexdesire" and now i dont even have the market app so i cant get the Rom manager . and how do you check the md5 file?

to check md5 sum (which is provided by all the roms you download, they are usually right next to the download links), download and install this: HashTab
To check, you just need to right click on the file > properties > one of the tabs should say File Hashes and you just copy/paste the MD5 you got for the rom into the space provided and click compare; it they match, the file should be fine

whatcha developing??? lmfao

try flashing cm 5.0.6 again, after that flash the google-addon (in the cyanogenmod thread, first post is a link to the download section).
the google-addon will give you the market back.
also, read cm's instructions and follow step by step.
and post in Q&A, not development...

the the file downloads are probably corrupted.
did you make sure that the file downloads were completed, and do you have both cm 5.0.6 and google-addon on SD card when you try to flash?

what phone model you use?
did you unlock the bootloader (should be, because you said you flashed amon_ra...)
are you in amon_ra recovery when trying to flash?

if you can gain access to Market, download and install RomManager; it'll save you time
EDIT: if you don't have access to Market, here's the APK for it: RomManager

cyanogen mod, i screwed up and stuck at this screen

FFFFFIIIXXXXXEEEEEDDD THANK U GUYS!
Hi guys.. sorry to bother you. Im in a world of grief right now.
I am stuck at the modified load menu (green text on black background) with all the options to wipe or format ect...
at bottom it says "welcome build : RA-dream-v1.2.3
I have been stuck on this for hours, I was following theunlockr.com tutorial while using the newest cyanogenmod rom... it doesnt load.. im stuck back at this junk.. and I have no idea how to forfeit or go on from here.
please help
What you have right there (in the youtube vid)is the modified recovery console. What you need to do is load a rom onto your sd card and flash it.
You may have a rom already installed and just need to wipe (not sure though)
Try this from that screen:
1. Alt+W (wipe)
2. Reboot
If that doesnt work, then you need to load a rom and flash it. If you are trying to get cyans latest rom then you need to flash the HTC image first then flash the cyan image
lol Am I missing something? There are no links on the dev.htc website for the 1.6 Recovery Image....can you confirm this? About to go insane.
Thank you for the reply btw!
Yeah I can confirm no downloads on the site! I need that file to get my phone functioning!

If you're using the recovery screen to "apply update" from the menu use
signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip
the file that has "img" instead of "ota" in it has an image to use with fastboot not through recovery
Start over
I had the same problem for a second. I just started over. I recommend using this link: http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-root-a-t-mobile-g1-and-mytouch-3g-android-phone/
It is very informative and all links for the roms work! Start over with the first dreaming.img and go from there. Good luck.
Success
Okay, all I did was
wipe
Load/Flash the 'OTA' "signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip"
wipe
Load/Flash the 4.2.7 cyamod!!!
love u helpy helpers (wow easy it was)
thank you so much

[Q] Lost root, zip flash fail

Hi, recently performed a full wipe on my One, flashed latest Viper One RC1 rom and have lost root. I've downloaded and attempted to flash the supersu zip as instructed that's provided in the ROM thread, but TWRP gives me a failed message.
Am I doing something stupid here? :/
Thanks in advance.
Any ideas?
Which error?
Probably is a bad download of the zip.
Because the zip is working fine here

Thanks for the reply.
Downloaded it twice (can't provide link due to new user restriction, but it's linked to on page 1082 of the Viper One thread)
This is what I get in TWRP after attempted to install zip:-
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to open zip file.
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/Download/UPDATE-Sup(etc...)
Failed.

Download this, and try.
Working fine here.
That was the link that I used.
However, for some reason, downloading it on my PC then transferring it over to my phone rather than downloading directly on the phone seems to have made all the difference and now it's happy. :good:
Any idea why that would matter?

that error already stated issues from 'updater binary' that means something wrong with that updater scripts (meta-inf folder in that zip package). try consult wt rom delevoper or use previous meta- inf file if previously using the same rom

correct.. uncheck md5 scanning (if any) before flash.

Bad idea .. don't turn off md5 check when flashing rom
if you have a corrupt download you can brick your phone.
the file your downloading may have been corrupted when the DEV uploaded it.. Do not force it to install till you get a good MD5 check

sorry.. i know.. but if u adb sideload that zip, recovery will auto detect that error & installation aborted. means secure!!
that means surely bad download. that what i said before ( maybe bad downloaded zip)

Their are programs to check your download called MD5 checker
you should check every file you download before installing it to your phone... Many post here are because of corrupt downloads that can be avoided by a simple 5 second check

Can't install eui 5.8.19s

Why can't I go back to my stock rom, I'm on rr5.8.1
I installed a recovery from which we can install stock rom but the screen is stuck on where it shows patching system image unconditionally.
Please help
1)Sideload the rom.
2) if u get a error saying this package is for le_s2_ww and this is s2 then open the zip file of stock rom go to meta-inf/com/google/android open updater script in notepad++ then remove the first 2 lines.

That's a very bad idea, the whole point of checking model numbers is to stop people flashing the wrong ROM and bricking their device.
Bro it has happened to me a lot of time and this is always due to file corruption during the download or while copying the files.So just redownload it without pausing the download and it will flash properly!!
Ydss TWRP use karo flash ho jayaga

You need to format your data in twrp or change your syorage location to ext sd not internal
Thanks to Zach ?
is there an md5 for the zip? Think I am already to give it a try but need to make sure it downloaded correctly.

bad idea will make the boot slower in TWRP and plus its runnning t-mobile lastest update so you should be good!
I hope you are confused. You can write the numbers of the md5 of the zip you uploaded on the first page, not adding one for twrp to check, but so that people can still use a checker before they try to install it and say you messed something up when it was just a bad download
