so some of these questions might be stupid ill admit it. how big of a chance is there that i brick my phone trying to root it. and if im planning to get a bigger sd card should i get it before i use my original sd card and root it. also if i ever need to how hard is it to put the phone back to sprints os. and anyone one with good advice im open ears guys.
General thread, just for future reference. As far as bricking your chances are pretty slim, just make sure not to flash a GSM radio.

rooting your phone: pretty much no chance. don't hold me to this though, if you somehow manage to do it. even if you do screw it up, the RUU(the thing that puts you back to sprint's os) can easily be run from a computer and it'll pretty much fix your phone.
most important thing: NEVER flash a gsm radio. those things will really mess up your phone because it'll never turn on after you do that.
about the sdcard... it shouldn't really matter which one you use unless you're using apps2sd.
Hey thanks what about the micro sd card thing

The sd card thing doesnt matter. You can get a new one after you are rooted and running a custom rom

With sd cards, there is a 'class' number. The higher number you have, the better it is. I'd go with class 6 or higher. And if you just stay in the CDMA forum, you shouldn't have any problems. Just don't flash any roms or radios that dont mention CDMA
Once again you rock bro thanks I was gonna use the steps that were posted under the rooting cdma hero for Windows does that one look like it would be good for someone like me to follow

Fresh2.0http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=643034 or Damage Controlhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=656690
I prefer fresh rom
Basically it's just trial and error. It's pretty easy to flashthe ROM's so you can keep changing them until you find something you like..
When you flash any ROM you will usually need to wipe your phone and this will cause anything not backed up will be lost. i make sure I save all contacts as a google type. That way when you flash a new ROM and you sign into google again all your contacts will be restored. There are several apps in the market to back up apps you have downloaded.
But before you do that, boot into recovery...hold down home and power to turn on the phone and do a nandroid. Then mount your sdcard and save the files inside the nandroid folder on your sdcard to your computer. This should be your nandroid of the original 1.5 ROM.
on the roms when it says to save to root folder is that the same as the nandroid folder cause when i mount my sd there is no folder that labeled root
ha im retarted didnt read it good enough you answered that already. on my contacts list if the person has google next to there name does that mean is saved to google and where on google can i see them. i wasnt told or shown anything when i got this phone im sure this stuff is basic
heres a question: If I were to root and do a custom ROM, how assured am I that when sprint releases 2.1, I can do that upgrade?

For some reason the nandroid backup I made of the stock ROM before I flashed cognition has been corrupted. After installations and reboot it stays on att world phone screen. I would like to have a backup of the stock ROM so where can I download it? I don't have access to a computer therefore I can't use Odin. Am I screwed?

Actually the cognition download website has a JH7 OTA stock download link, I would give you the link but I can't post links yet because the system won't let me (in case of spamming). So I think you should be good! Although I dunno how you're going to get it onto your SD card, but I suck at understanding these things, someone else can probably tell you.

How'd you do that if you couldn't get past the at&t bootup screen? Not doubting you, just curious.
Also, just so I know for my own personal knowledge, how DOES this work? Having a clean backup available on my phone may come in handy, and I definitely have the space for it on my SD card. If I download it on the browser, and it's on my SD card somewhere (wherever is the default download location), how do I add it to clockwork? If I go into ROM Manager I can see that I can click on install rom from sd card --> click the downloads file --> and then I suppose ROM manager would detect the JH7 rom (right?) but if I just downloaded it from the link and had it sitting on my sd card, it WOULDN'T be on clockwork's list if I went into recovery mode, would it? If not is there a way to easily do this right on my phone?
Sorry I know this is pretty basic stuff for most of the people on this forum but like I said before I'm not tech savvy. I just love gadgets This would give me piece of mind too, because I'm getting close to flashing cognition, which will be my first time (and perhaps only time, unless it gets crazy better after the source code for froyo on captivate comes out) flashing a new ROM.
This is a really old post, but i think it has a lot of what you need to know.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=744042&highlight=clockworkmod
Well see I was sill able to get in recovery mode, but if I didn't go into recovery mode it would stay on the at t boot screen. So no mater how many times I tried to restore it, it would always remain on the boot screen unless I went into recovery. So I flashed cognition from clockwork and downloaded it that way. For some reason none of my nandroid backups ever work. They always install but won't boot. Because of this I just created a folder with all the roms that I have in their .zip form. So if I ever want to flash a different rom I just go to clockwork recovery and instal from the sd. No backups.

I just watched the 3 part You Tube Video on Flashing Cognition ROM to Captivate,I need to ask 3 things. First the video shows the One Click Root method though computer. I already have my root rooted with z4root app is this OK. After the new ROM is on the guy went to Market and got Ti Backup and he side loaded it can't you just load Std. way though Market?( I have the Paid Ver. of Ti Backup) Third question on the video he stated to use "restore All Apps with Data" but written on the Screen says to use "Restore Missing apps with data",which is it? I hope this my last question but I really want to sure of what I am doing before I try this.
Thanks for help
Would have been better suited in the General forum, but..
Rooting with z4mod = fine.
Getting TiBu from market = ...fine.
Restore all apps with data = literally restores all of your backups and data
Restore missing apps with data = restores apps that are not installed on the phone, ignoring ones that are installed on the phone.
Best to ask in Q&A section, but I'll still help you out.
1. Yes, that's fine. The way you root it doesn't matter, as long as it's rooted.
2. Not sure why he'd go to the Market to get it then sideload, but yes, you can get it straight from the Market, but make sure you know how to keep your donate version after a flash, as flashes (usually) wipe /data.
3. Restore Missing Apps with Data.
Thanks guys I really wasn't sure where to Post this. Yes I have Backup of Ti Backup folder on my computer.
Thanks again

After getting a new hero and using my nandroid from old phone it occurred to me, why not distribute a working backup rather than a rom to flash.
This may not be the best way but if a dev flashed their rom, skipped sign in, made sure everything was functional, then made a backup and distributed that, wouldnt that cut down on people getting mixed results post flash?

Two top reasons, why ROM vs. Nandroid backups...
1. Recovery dependency
2. Customization

Click to expand...

1. Specify recovery used or make multiple backups per recovery.
2. Backup would contain basic rom, leaving customization to be done after restore.
After flashing rom, gapps, black market, I always backup then start making changes incase I delete something I'm not supposed to.
Example: lets say I flash my rom and gapps. I start my phone, skip sign in, begun fumbling through menus making sure I get no FCs, etc. Check too see if GPS is working, sms/mms, youtube, camera, etc. At this point everything works and I make a backup. My assumption is that if someone else uses that backup, everything will work for them as well. (google was never linked due to skipping sign in).
Not trying to prove you wrong, just expressing my thoughts until they themselves are proven incorrect.

Both of you guys are Right in a way, and I kind of had a little Idea from Reading all the Posts!
What if a Developer/User "Whoever" was to Upload a Nand Backup But with a John Doe Google Account Just for Nand Purposes, "Basically for Anyone who wants to Download it"
I Read *SO MANY* Posts where Users Have a Hell of a Time Trying to get certain Roms Installed...
So now let's use me for Instance, Say I was having a Issue with Installing a ROM where it just Wouldn't Work for whatever Reason. Actually lets say I was a Noob with Some or Little to Any Experience and Instead as a Alternative I Used John Doe's Nand Backup just to get it Booted!!
Here's the Catch...
From there Meaning once it Boots, and Correct me if I'm Wrong! Wouldn't I be Able to just Pull the Battery and Do a Full Wipe....
Data/Cache/DalvikCache and Reboot back to the Same ROM Minus the John Doe?
Meaning Now I'd be able to Start the ROM Fresh and Replace the Temporary John Doe Account with My Own Email.gmail.com/Password, Then from there have the Option to Create Another Backup with My Own Customizations!
Remember like I said, Although I Usually I Don't have any Issues during a ROM Install, But Realistically That Doesn't mean Everyones is as Fortunate, So this Might, Could be a Alternative for Whoevers Willing to Try it!!
If Anything I Said, Better Yet more or less Suggested is Wrong... Please Correct Me, But the Above is Based on the Best of my Knowledge!

ok so using a John Doe account wont work. Once you sign in, that account can only be removed by reset.
Ok so lets just get these out there for people to try out.
Below is a download link to 2 nandroid backups.
The two recoverys used were CW 2.5.0.7 and RA-Recovery-1.6.2.
Download here.
MegaUpload
DO NOT FLASH ZIP!!!
Unzip file, inside your should find two folders. Use the correct file for your recovery.
As always, Nandroid backup first.
Perform a full wipe.
Restore downloaded backup. (In RA-Recovery, if you get a error message, go Here to see instructions on how to restore using adb.)
Reboot
(Click Market to sign in.)
Test away!!
Once booted you should be running aospCMod, dark horse theme, black market, blue and black facebook, black MIUI Music, LauncherPro (themed widgets if you have unlock code), Black Youtube.
Apps you will NOT see in drawer are camera, gallery, file manager, dev tools. And prob some others, cant remember atm.
Thank you in advance for helping me test this out.
A similiar method is used on certain phones. The dev can make a nand or copy system and data into .img or .tar files. The recovery then unpacks the images into the correct directory.

I'm using this thread as the testing method. Once we confirm the advantages of it and that it works well, I will start threads in dev and theme forums. Not sure if I will need permission from creaters of the roms to do so but I will look into that. Eventually I'd like to have a few people helping to get most roms on there and help keep them updated.
So for now do the testing and report back on the results. Also try the CW backup on earlier and later versions of CW.

If you have a back up from when you first rooted it should give you the stock boot.img. Then flash the stock rom found in the dev section. Then using revotoolkit.apk reinstall stock recovery. Then gingerbreak to unroot. Then update to zv6 from the about phone area and you should be good to go.

My recommendation would be to flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1129117
If it gives you the option to update, perhaps you should try that, and it may unroot your phone.
As far as CWM, I doubt the clerks are going to play with recovery... (that's not a guarantee, however).
If you are really desperate and scared, you should use the VZW tool for reflashing the phone, but I AM NOT RECOMMENDING IT. The tool has been known to do bad things to phones that need expert help to undo if not done properly (not only that, it's a pain in the arse).
Can I flash the boot image from that nandroid?
I was going to use the tool to run the downgrade again but I keep getting errors that I was not getting when I first rooted the phone. Mostly .msi installer package errors when selecting the .tot file.
If its in there it should be fine. If not i can make a zip of the stock boot.img when i get home but it will be about 7 central time.

I don't think the boot image was included with the earlier ROMs. I *probably* have a few boot images from when I was working with Cubed on CWR, but I don't know which is which, and some of those actually can cause bricks. Boot image was p8? I don't even remember now.
As far as selecting the .tot file, it requires the support files... They come with the LGNPST Store & Lab... they would look like:
LGNPST_GenericModels_Ver_3_0_17_0.msi
I'm not positive which one is the right one as it's been a long time. Sorry this is vague, but I went through the process once, and then never again.
The person whose phone we recovered through this method had an issue after the flash where everything looked kosher, but the data would no longer work (no 3g, 4g, etc), and required Cubed's intervention to repair. So I haven't touched it since.

So just a couple quick questions. I am having some battery life issues just like everyone else with cm7. I have the LG g2x btw. Basically I want to try out some other mods, and was wondering if I create a back up of the cm7 currently on my phone, can I access my files on my computer, take the backup file off the phone, save it in a file on my computer, replace the file with the new rom and install. Suppose I dont like the new rom, can i quickly replace the new rom with the old cm7 that i had on my phone and saved to my computer? i have my original back up of the factory settings, and adding more than one back up takes up a lot of my room on my sd card.
I hope i explained this pretty well. let me know if i can explain something better
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
Yep, you can! Download 'ROM manager' (found in market) and choose the backup option, then go to your sdcard and in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup there will be a map called whatever you named your backup, just transfer that to your computer and if you don't like the new ROM just put it back there and choose restore!
Edit: If you dont have enough space just move your factory backup to the computer.
I dont think that you can choose where to save the backups.
