I have the same problem... SuperD didn't work, only CM5 and Zachattack052 & Xillius200's Eclair (which is actually CM modified...)

FIXED
well that was easy...
just follow the instruction on the cyan wiki for flashing from a different rom to 4.2
simples

This same thing will happen if you flash cm5 and then try to nandroid or switchrom back to a previous rom. It'll hang on the G1 screen. Make sure you wipe and you'll be fine.

Could you be more specific on what guide you used I can't find what your talking about on CM website. I'm having the same issue only I can only get JesusFreke Rom to work. I'd like to put CM or ANY other ROM on my phone, JF ROM slowly causes my Answer, Home and Back keys to stop working...

I'll give you the gist of what the guides tell you.
Follow the OP and flash the defanged base first: http://www.mediafire.com/?nymkxjmndzd
Flash the rom.
The fact people are having problems with months after this has been commonplace for flashing Cyanogen roms gives me almost no hope for the future.

Alright Thanks

Is there a point to upload to CyanogenMod-6.1 now or wait for gingerbread?

I'm still with the stock froyo and about to upgrade.
But if i upgrade to CyanogenMod-6.1
1. How i can make sure that i keep all my applications and settings
2. how to understand if i need to update the radio as well
3. is there a point to upgrade now when gingerbread is just behind the corner and how long usually takes Cyanogen to incorporate the new build in his mod?

No body knows when Gingerbread will really be available for N1.
Just nandroid backup what you have now and flash back when GB is here.

Do a Nandroid backup & Titanium backup.
You can see your radio build at "settings-about phone-baseband version". The current radio is 5.08.00.04 or korean. Look at the android developement section.
Imo, you better try cm 6.1 first. Because, as i know of, there are no major change in gingerbread. But, who knows?
Hope it helps

there are huge underlying changes in gingerbread....
also latest stock radio is 4.06. the next official radio update is not out yet. 4.06 is fine with cyan. personally, seeing as gingerbread is probably gonna be hitting in the next few days (hopefully) i would wait

Thank you all!
What's the difference between Nandroid backup & Titanium backup?
How long took Cyanogen to implement 2.2 froyo in his rom?
If it's not too much i guess i flash now and then just re-flash with the gingerbread based cyanogen rom?

A nandroid backup is a complete backup of your rom. if you were to restore a nandroid, your phone will be exactly as it was when you did the backup, as if you took a snapshot in time. This allows you to try out different roms, or flash changes to your rom with low risk, as you can always revert.
A titanium backup backs your apps and data to your SD card, it allows you to move between roms and take your apps, the data in your apps, and your settings with you.

If it is anything like last time, google will push the OTA update, then drop the source code a few weeks later, give the Cyanogenmod team a few weeks to put out a release candidate. I'd expect you should be able to just flash the upgrade directly.

Btw, the Titanium back-up doesn't really seem to back up everything
For example i have to re-configure all my settings, desktops, re-set my accounts and it also has missed few applications.
Is that normal or i'm missing something?
other than that, i'm now happy with cyanogenmod 6.1, it's pretty cool

Are you backing up apps only or apps + user's data ect...
I heard it's better to just restore apps and re-enter data as
that work better. I don't know I've always had good luck restoring
users data.

there are a ton of awesome things in cyanogen 6.1 like HD video recording and FM radio. definitley worth the upgrade now, especially since it will be at least a month after gingerbread is released before cyan team gets something out. maybe longer cause the source isnt necessarily released the same day as the ROM. with froyo i think it was 1-2 months after release till cyan came out.

sorry i guess i didnt understand what you were saying about gingerbread, but if you want a stock gingerbread rom then it should be out within a few days (hopefully)
however, the source and cm gingerbread probably wont be out for a month till then.
basically, if you want root, you should go ahead and go for it now just in case 2.3 makes it harder to root without unlocking the bootloader. a cm based gingerbread wont be out for a while. you can always upgrade to a gingerbread cm later anyway.
if you want to stay stock and see if you like gingerbread then just wait lol

I'm with cyanogen now and happier than ever.
It's soo good that i can gladly wait till they implement rom with gingerbread as well.
p.s.
Gingerbread seems to be kinda ugly anyway

At least with root, when you do get gingerbread you can change the colour scheme and theme it anyway

True, there are quite a lot of changes 'under the hood'.
4.06 is only still the latest official radio in the US. The ones sold in the rest of the world get 5.x-radios in their updates and have so since FRF91. They are also hardware-identical. As you say though, any radio from 4.06 and onwards is CM6-compatible.
Even though I hope Gingerbread will be released in a couple of days, perhaps when the Nexus S is released, but it could just as well take more time than that. CM 6.1 is a good way to enjoy the time until that happens.

which gingerbread rom is this?

Hey saw this Vid, wondering what rom and kernel he is running, if anyone knows which they are please let me know. thanks

first off this a tech demo and not a stable day to day use rom. You will not be able to use this normally on the phone (reagular reboots and instability) it was simply a taste of gingerbread for some devs here. I would highly recommend not flashing especially since you aren't really experienced yet. You should flash one of the many stable roms in the dev section, but if you insist on it, here is the thread for it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887037

i tried dling this rom and installing from clockwork recovery as a zip and it says it installed and takes me right back to the original rom i started with. also is there a kernel i should flash to make things more stable. thanks

I'm pretty sure you have to flash the 2.3 kernel for it to boot into gb. But as joeshmoe said, it isn't a good idea if you aren't experienced (I bricked a capivate trying to get this to work, seriously, it isn't a good idea). There's plenty of great froyo roms out and some nice gb themes, I'd recommend just taking that route.

Serendipity is basically as close to AOSP Gingerbread as is available right now.

It *is* being developed for the Captivate, but not on a native Captivate kernel. The reorient, headphone, button fixes are native to the i9000 port when it detects the hardware as a Captivate.

Don't flash it. Seriously. Codeworkx/Coolya were digging through the source, and the nexus s kernel source has differing voltages than the galaxy s. ie, it can actually destroy parts of your hardware. Wait a couple of weeks, the rc for CM7 should be out by then.

well i dont plan to use the rom long term just wanted to flash to it and mess with it then probably switch back to a froyo rom shortly after. but having an issue getting it to run. if i download a kernel with voodoo and run the lagfix to ext4 then flash the rom should that get it up and running?
edit: went ahead and flashed perception and then the rom, reboots constantly, so looks like ill go back to perception and tough it out with a gingerbread theme. Gonna miss that lock animation.... ok now anyknow know how i get back to recovery mode, or do i have to flash back to stock? and reroot?
edit2: dont flash this rom, waste of time, just play with your friends nexus S, back to serendipity

All for a lock screen animation......... wow.

Is ASOP gb stabel?

sry to post this, its prolly a dumb question. but i cant seem to find a straight answer in the development forum. so is ASOP 2.3.2 stable?

Flash it and find out.

Here is a more helpful response than that above:
http://romrepo.info/wiki/index.php?title=What_Works
From that page and the discussion thread, people are having issues here and there. GPS and youtube viewing seem to be a common problems. Besides that, it seems pretty good

thanks, looks like its stable minus the ability for wifi tethering

The built in wifi tether doesnt work but the one on the market does.
The ASOP GB has been more stable on my phone then any other build sense the ones Fresh did last year.

Hell, more stable than anything I've run on my phone.

I really want to flash it but I'm S-On and I'm afraid if recovery craps out on me then I'm screwed.
On top of that I've never done the SD card partition thing and want to read up a little more on it before I take the plunge

If you follow the instructions (or just fastboot erase instead of flashing Clockwork), you will be fine. You HAVE flashed a custom rom before, right? It's pretty easy..

Flash to gingerbread
Flash to MIUI or sense, but the wifi don`t work jet on the sense rom. But they have find the solution I think. It will get a update today or tomorrow I think.

No you didn't follow them EXACTLY. The installation is designed so that errors can't occur if the user does it properly. Are you using CWM?
Well since you think you're so god damn perfect and that you couldn't have made a mistake you obviously don't need our help. Obviously it must be a problem with MIUI

If you just want a faster phone, you should try just running JVB stock. That is by far the fastest ROM I've tried so far. And yes; I've tried MIUI.
And if you want it even faster you should try CF 3.1.

Hey when guys say they are noobs that means they are learning we all have to start somewhere try the simply honey rom it's awesome it's jvb gingerbread quadrant score of 2300

you could try the insanity ROM. I'm a noob too, and even *I* managed to get it to work, with no problems... and it's fast.
