Hi, I recently tried rooting my g1. I got back to cupcake. When I used the 1 click Amon Ra method and it finished, when I got to recovery it was the g1's stock recovery. Now I'm stuck with cupcake. How can I fix this? All help is appreciated!
Also, I used this video: (both parts)
Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOkLYbnt5p0
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ks57t-d3M5s
Just to clarify, at the end of part 2 after I had flashed the recovery, I followed the instructions and wiped the card, then when I went in to recovery mode it was the stock recovery. I went back and did the 2 part tutorial again, but when I get to the recovery flasher and I type in the code, there's no option to flash it. again, any help at all is greatly appreciated!

Its gone because you didnt flash the radio while in rec mode..This is better to follow, one-click root seems to bring alot of people here...
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/22/how-to-root-the-mytouch-3g-or-g1-in-one-click/
Thats where the steps originated from, follow that vid and guide instead.
You must carefully read and post in Q&A not dream's general sub-forum next time.
Thanks, but the link you sent was a tutorial on how to one click root.

Well since the guide I used didn't explain the SPL and Radio, I am currently at cupcake with the stock recovery. Should I format the sd card and use the rooting part of the guide?

Goto market and DL astro then DL flashrec too.
Flashrec is here
http://zenthought.org/system/files/asset/2/flashrec-1.1.3-20091107-2.apk
But first goto apps via settings and allow non-market apps to install.
ok, I did that

Ok, now I successfully flashed the recovery, I haven't booted into recovery yet, but on the guide I linked you to it says to download cyanogen and the ADP 1.6 update, if I am going to be using Super D, how would the guide change?
also, it just popped up and asked if I wanted to update to donut, very weird

Your suppose to flash the radio while in recovery mode, do you know which radio you currently have Supe D doesnt need the ADP.
Cyan has it b/c he not allowed to use goog apps.

Hi, two days ago I've soft bricked my tab: GT-P1000(SPAIN/VODAFONE).And yesterday I successfully unbricked it using these files:
P1000BUJQ5_P1000ATLJQ1_ATL.zip
P1_add_hidden.pit
When I tried to boot it just got stuck on the samsung logo, I saw some tutorials saying that you should Factory Reset it, but I got this Error:

Please I really need some help
Thanks in advance.

Yeah I used that guide to unbrick my Tab, it successfully unbricked but I got stuck in the samsung logo.
I tried to factory reset but that error showed up.
Well can I still flash it with dbdata?
I solved the problem, I flashed using dbdata.rfs.tar and I could run GB 2.3.6
You can mark this thread as solved.

I have the same problem.
May i know where to download dbdata.rfs.tar ?
After downloading what should I do? Do I need .PIT files?
Thank you
I had the same issues as you guys. Gingerbread is so freakin unstable its not funny. I want to get off it but there seems to be no normal way to do this for my particular tab? Cause all the guides and recommendations I have followed do NOT work. I have posted my own thread in this section and have had not a single person reply? Is this place dead now? Are there no XDA members out there who are able to help?
Question. If a bootloader is locked at Froyo and you flash an unlocked Gingerbread bootloader is it now unlocked?
Anyway to the guy above me the attachment should be able to help you. Flash it with Odin as PDA :good:

But note that gingerbird 2.3.3 link is not working redirecting to some video downloader.
Also the dbdata file size seems lot different.

That was the one that I used that allowed my device to boot. I also noted that this file was a different size to the one in the stock firmware that I downloaded. I also found out that no matter how much I tried I could not get the device to even boot using stock carrier branded firmware? So yeah that is as much as I can give you mate. I am a n00b in these areas (have dev'd for SGS1 and a number of other devices but I am n00b here in Galaxy Tab section) so I am still learning about this device.

Hi everyone,
Recently I tried to follow a post from xda dev on putting a new kernel on my HTC Desire C.
Although I followed all the steps I am now unable to get past the boot screen wit the htc logo.
I have tried a number of solutions to make it work but nothing so far, backup recovery failed, changing to another kernel failed.
I think that at this point it might be bricked, and all that I can see is the logo and a disclaimer message.
Does anyone has any idea if I could fix it, and what do I need to do?
Kind regards,
Florin
Edit: thanks to aashay960 for telling me how to fix this.
The solution was to reinstall kernel and rom (since I made a mess of it initially)
Current config : CyanogenMod 10 + N.O.P.E Kernel 875Mhz

Its not bricked. Tell me which kernel you are trying, with which rom? And try flashing a lower frequency kernel.

I tried the Prometheus Kernel for sense linked in your signature with the stock. I got to the HTC logo screen and it got stuck there. It might be that the method I used was wrong.
Would it be possible to use the ones you do? Cyanogem mode and the N.O.P.E Kernel?
Can I install them only with recovery? And is there and "xda approved" method of installing kernels and custom roms?
Thanks,
Florin
Flash a lower frequency Prometheus Sense Kernel from fastboot.
You cannot use nope for sense roms. Nope is for Jellybean roms only.
As of now we have two ways to flash a kernel on this device. One is fastboot, which I personally use. Second is the auto Boot.img flasher that you will find if you search..
For now, tell me what frequency you tried. And try a lower one.

Hi, I forgot to mention in the previous one that I initially used the 816 one, and then switched to the lower one 767.
Is it worth it to try a "clean install" as in a new configuration with a new kernel and rom?
No a wipe is not necessary.
Just make sure you do
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Try an even lower one.
Now that your bootloader is unlocked. Why not try a custom rom?

Yeah that seems to be the most popular rom around. Been using it for a long time..
You can look at other options too. You can't really go wrong with any...
Just make sure to flash nope kernel with a jb rom.

Hello
I came across this website htconeroot.com
And i rooted my HTC One, it worked perfect, but I couldn't install BusyBox, so I looked it up and found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236849
But first after I tried it I found out it was for sprint, and mine is not..
So it seems that it have deleted all data in the system folder of my phone and I forgot to take a backup of my rom..
So I wanted to hear if any of you knew a trick to reset my phone or anything to save it?
Thanks
