Nexus One ATT and the Cyanogenmod

Hi, i have the n1 with the att 3g band and i am looking to root and to install the Cyanogenmod, however i am kinda afraid to do this because i wanna make sure that the radio will still work OK after the mod.
My logic is that the Cyanogenmod was created when the n1 only existed with the t-mobile 3g band and i wanna make sure that before i do the mod that the phone will still work ok with the att 3g bands
Thank You
Alex

Yes it will work. Many people have already flashed the mod with no issues. You do not need to flash the radio since you have the newest one already, and flashing radio might get you a nice looking brick.

thank you
what are the advantages of installing the mod on the phone, whats the differences between the stock and the Cyanogenmod?

um main thing besides all the supported root apps..
SPEED! and the ability to pretty much do anything with your device..
May the Root be with you.

Cyanogenmod on AT&T/Rogers Nexus One
Hi,
I just got my Nexus One today and put Amon_RA Recovery 1.6.2 on it then flashed Cyanogenmod 5.0.5.1 and it froze on the splash screen for 10 minutes. Didn't go to an animated boot screen or anything. I did a full wipe before flashing.
I am still able to get to the recovery mode... so I am glad I don't have a brick already; but I am curious how to get CM working.
I also flashed gapps-passion-EPE54B-signed.zip
Anybody else have any trouble? I am going to try a Modaco ROM before trying a stock one.

I am having this same problem with my AT&T Nexus One. The only difference is that I used 1.7.0 of Amon_RA's recovery.

Cyanogenmod on AT&T/Rogers Nexus One - WORKING!!
I went to Modaco here to get his kitchen of the CyanogenMod ROM:
http://android.modaco.com/content-p...nmod-5-for-nexus-one-online-kitchen/page/560/
I just grabbed the pre-baked file.
I flashed Amon_RA 1.7.0 beforehand.
Wiped everything
Flashed CM 5.0.5.1 from Modaco
Wiped again
Fix APK UID
Reboot
Working!

Good to know, I was wondering that.
My Nexus one is in the mail right now
Can't wait!
N1 arrives -> gets warm -> gets charged -> gets Amon_RA =)

Reboot when attempting to shoot video

I just rooted my Nexus yesterday to Cyans mod. I ve rooted before (tons of ROMS on my G1) so Im not a complete noobie. The ROM runs absolutely perfect and smooth EXCEPT for when I try to record video. Every time, and I do mean every time I try to record a video, the phone freezes for like 3 secs, and then reboots.
Camera shoots photos fine, and this is the only problem I have, but it is becoming a problem, considering I just bought the phone I searched the forms for this problem, and used multiple search strings and found no results.
Has anyone ran into this problem, and if so have you found a fix for it?
**MODS..I deeply apologize if this is in the wrong section.I worked a 10 hour shift and am half asleep while writing this. Please feel free to move if you see fit**
**EDIT..ok..NOT COOL...I just tried to watch a video, and that also no longer works. Anyone know of a fix for this?

Same issue here. Meh...
Ended up switching to Froyo. Hope Cyanogen keeps up.

If you've flashed the 'Froyo' radio then you'll have to downgrade it before video will work, or move (back) to Froyo.
If you haven't changed radio then I have no idea!

same here. the test video i took when i got the (ph)one was amazing quality so i'm looking forward to this working again!

If you guys were EVER on Froyo. It updated your radio. If you then went back to CM builds, you will need to downgrade your radio to the eclair radios in order for the camcorder to work properly.

The phone hasnt been on Froyo (that I know of), so thats not causing my problem. I tried to flash the prerelease before I was rooted, but it was US only and didnt work. I didnt however update my radio when I flashed to Cyan, but I was told this wasnt causing the problem. At this point, anything to get my cam and videos working again!
Would be awesome if Cyan, the man himself, could hook us up with a fix or some advice on this one!

if you attempted to flash the froyo stock update, it included the new radio. its very possible that it successfully flashed your radio, but failed to install the froyo ROM. you can easily check if you have the new radio by going into your settings and checking the baseband version. i bet you are on the new froyo radio, which is known to break video with all 2.1 ROM's. and vice versa, the old radio breaks camcorder on 2.2 ROMs.
so each time you jump between a 2.1 and 2.2 ROM, you have to flash the associated radio as well.

GOOD POINT BRO. I will check this now...
**EDIT** that was it..I must have went to Froyo radio unknowingly. I flashed the stock Nexus radio, and vids and video recording are now working just fine.
Hope this thread helps the others. I foolishly searched "cant record videos" and found nothing, when I should have searched "cant play videos", as there are many threads on that one.
Again, thanks for your help!! Didnt expect a solution so quickly!!
It also seemed to give me 3g problems when I just flashed back, but I ll deal with that one tomorrow after work

Same issue
I have a n1 with 5.0.7.1 and my phone also reboots upon trying to launch the camcorder feature. I'm going to try out the new 5.0.8 test3 with 720p hack add-on and see how that goes.

Any luck? I recently upgraded to CyanogenMod 5.0.8 and immediately after updating I noticed the change. I can watch videos in Gallery just fine, but trying to record (or open Settings) in the camcorder mode causes the phone to hang and then reboot.
I never once tried to get anywhere near Froyo. I'm still waiting for CM6. Any advice on how to restore video functionality? Should I downgrade to the previous version of CyanogenMod? Is that even possible?
As I said, I highly doubt this is a Froyo issue, but it's clearly related to upgrading to CM 5.0.8.

So, to be perfectly clear, did you or did you not update your radio before flashing 5.0.8?

I am not aware of ever having modified any "radio" functionality on my Nexus One. I bought the phone retail at the beginning of May, so it had stock 2.1. About a week later I flashed via USB to whatever version of CyanogenMod was current then. (I'm sorry and embarrassed I can't be more specific.) Everything worked flawlessly.
Then about three days ago, I downloaded the CyanogenMod Updater app from the Marketplace and used that to move to CM 5.0.8. I also performed a backup with Titanium, from which I restored after updating to CM 5.0.8. Since this was done, I my phone freezes and reboots whenever I try to record video. I mentioned the Titanium backup because perhaps the Restore System Data feature resulted in broken settings. But I do recall seeing "720p video" in the changelog to CM 5.0.8, so I'm guessing that's probably the culprit.
I don't understand how the radio would be affecting my camera, but I'm willing to try anything. If we assume that somehow the CM update did change my radio settings, how would I go about correcting that? Should I just wait for CM6, or is this radio problem likely to persist if I don't address it specifically? Is regressing to an earlier version of CM an option?

D'oh. This was clearly it. Because I got CM 5.0.8 via the CyanogenMod Updater app, I did not see that I was supposed to update the radio to Froyo independently of installing CM.
I tracked down the radio image (the Full Update Guide has all the info, for any interested persons) and flashed with that, and sure enough, I know have smooth 720p video recording.
Thank you so much for bluntly and persistently calling my attention to the radio image issue. I'm going to go back to playing with my favorite toy now. =)

Any specific steps?

Okay... I bought a gently used N1 and the previous owner has it Rooted and flashed to FroYo... I am wanting to try out CM5.0.8t5, but I can't find any directions for going from 2.2 back to CM.
What are the steps I need to switch over? Thanks in advance!

just flash it man - maybe change the radio to the old one.

Damnit... I thought I was posting in Q&A... that's what I get for having too many windows open at the same time. Thanks for moving it.

wipe, flash CM, flash GAPPS....... Froyo radio works on CM5.0.6Test now

So... next question... does Adobe Flash 10.1 work on CM?

No the flash does not work on CM 5.0.8 t5. Since the new CM uses the foryo radio just download the the rom. wipe everything and flash away.

New or old radio - Froyo vs. CM?

I would like to try some of the Froyo ROMs out there after my CM5.0.7.1 is beginning to get a bit unstable.
After the first Froyo ROMs where launched I read that some people had problems switching back to CM because of a new radio version - is this still the case with for example Modacos r17 froyo ROM? Or can I just switch back to CM if I prefer this?
I would like to be able to switch between the ROMs and I am not comfortable with flashing radio images, because I am afraid to brick my device.

i have switched back and forth between cyanogen 507 and froyo, and each time i flash the radio as well. the new froyo radio will break video on cyanogen. and the old radio on froyo will break video and camera on froyo. so really you should switch radios as well.
but i THINK the newest cyanogen test release has incorporated the froyo radio, and made everything work. so you might be able to just use that and not have switch radios.

See my sig..
5.0.8 + Froyo Radio
NO issues whatsoever..

Ok, that sounds very encouraging
How about the risk of bricking the device? I recall this being an issue with flashing the radio?
I have Amon_RA 1.6.2 as recovery, standard radio and CM 5.0.7.1 as of now.
If I download the r17 froyo from Modaco, is the radio included in the .zip or should I upgrade the radio before flashing the ROM?

... and how about CM5.0.8? New radio for this as well? Or just video that will be "broken"?

... and a last question before i go to bed:
I just flashed 5.0.8, discovered I went from HSDPA to only EDGE - flashed back to 5.0.7.1 and still only have Edge?! Any Ideas on how to solve this?

yes cyanogen ROMs have the build.prop file changed usually. you lose HSUPA when you switch to cyanogen. so somewhere along the way, you probably saw the thread where people were editing their build.prop and changed to:
hsxpa=2
if you flash cyanogen, you wont have that setting. just change it and you should be all set.
the new cyanogen 5.0.8 works with the new froyo radio with no broken video i believe.

It is my download, not upload? I have always used cm with no problems with data until now.
I dont know what build.prop is either?
What can I do to get the speed on my data back?

It seemed just to be temporary :-D Back to the other questions

Need help Bad!! Weired problem

Hello guys, my problem is as follows. The other night I was about to try a different ROM than the one I was on. So like always I said let me back up my ROM. I was on a recent cyanogen nightly. Maybe about a week old. So I make a back up and hit reboot. But it won't reboot. I go in to recovery to use backup that I no just said completed successful but its not there. Actually nothing is there from old ROM. So I say OK. I will just try to restore an old stock type rom I had. Well it restored but the camera kept unfortunately stopping. So I said fine. I will wipe and use same ROM but start like new. When I did that the camera still crashed and I had no sound.. Crazy...tried latest nightly and it got to part saying starting apps but never booted... Any help would be great. Had to go back to one plus one for now..
