N1 newebea - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

XDA'ers, thanks a lot for wealth of info, but I figured out there is no clear instructions to process of putting a new rom,radio etc on to the device. Are there any clear instructiosn for n00bs like me? I'm new to Android,but not new to Linux itself,so anybody if could help with what are the steps and howto guides?
thanks

Need help with some terms..

hi..
i just got my wing yesterday and i want to flash a new rom on it.
i was trying to learn as much as possible before my phone got here, but i still dont know too much
ok, so what is a SPL?? i saw one rom that said if you dont have an SPL of 4.0 or something like that dont use it.. i have a clue as to what that is or what mine is
what is overclocking?? do I NEED to do it??
what is the easiest (or has the easiest UI) reg editor??
are their any extra programs i might need to flash a rom on my phone??
This is the wrong forum to post your questions.
It's only about ROM developing.
The Herald mobile 6 forum would be the appropriate place to go.
There you will find all the information you need.
The forum moderator papamopps collected all the important stuff for beginners
and unexperienced users coming to the Herald/Wing forum.
Here is the compendium:
[UPDATED] >> !! - ALL Important LINKS - !! < > !! Noobs and ALL read carefully !! <<
Please get familiar on how and where to post your questions, ideas, solutions, etc.
Enjoy your time here at xda-dev.
hello and thank you for moving my thread to the appropriate forum
i read that whole thread that was posted above with all the links first before i posted and it didnt answer any of the questions I asked.
so can anyone please answer them for me? Thank you

Newbie question please

I am new and have just bought an unlocked HD running windows 6.1 and really want to have windows 6.5 on it with one of the Roms from here, I have searched and searched on instructions how to do this from scratch but I have read so much that I just don't know where to start, could someone please point me in the right direction, as I really don't know where to start, sorry if I appear to be stupid but everything I have read seems so technical and I would like to understand what I am reading, thank you so much...
Welcome to the wonderful world of Blackstone!
Have a read of the Dummies Guide:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
Once you get passed all the technical mumbo jumbo, it's really not that complicated. Good luck!
As krs360 says, it sounds very technical but it is really straight forward. Just read and follow each step.
You can also get more information regarding the various components of the flash files here
Thank you for the replies, I will try and understand all the jargon, I will read it over a few times, thanks again...Where can I download hard spl for the touch hd??
That's the best advice. This thread will probably be closed soon, so please post any further questions you have in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
As above post. Thread closed

There are instructions everywhere on how to flash it. Also, thats an old version, the new KJ3 released today
step 1. dont post questions in dev forum
step 2. ???
step 3. profit
I'll get straight to the point....
Despite stickys and forum announcements most of us are still finding ourselves becoming terribly, terribly vexed at the amount of [Q]'s cluttering the dev section...
Therefore, from now on, if you do not follow the rules outlined below, you will be infracted. Break them again and you may find yourself unable to post anything at all on any forum!!
[Q]Surely thats a bit harsh aint it??
[A]Not really....
We've tried to be nice about it but that clearly doesnt work.
If you cannot read and abide by the simple rules in this sticky then I dont know how you're going to manage to hack your device without running into trouble.
The Dev section is NOT for asking questions.....
The Dev section is NOT for general topics..........
All threads posted MUST be prefixed with a description of the thread, [ROM] / [Kernel] etc etc.....*
*(Not planning on being particuarly strict on this. You guys (the devs), know how to title a thread.... just a pointer for new devs.)
Basically, unless your thread is to actually release something or discuss something of a very technical and n00b unfriendly nature, it doesnt belong here!
Pretty simple really.....
If you see something that shouldnt be here then PM me....
I will try to check in as reguarly as I can but I have a few sections to keep an eye on and believe it or not, a life outside XDA
Yes thats right, there is life outside XDA

This is a direct quote from the sticky at the top of this forum. Read around before you post. This would have been received much better in the Q&A Forum. Because its a question. And nowhere close to a development.
Thread locked. xCRZYx, post your question in the Question and Answer forum. This is development only.

there are many threads here in Xda where users have written guides and tutorials to help new members. My advice would be to search and read everything concerning Flashing Roms because this will help you in understanding how NOT to brick your phone. If you don't understand, ask questions on the relevant thread so that members can help you.
Check these threads for a start and use the search tool for more infos :

very wrong forum in fact, the general rule is "if you didn't create it, it does not belong to development",
use the warning sign icon in top right-corner of your original post to report and ask the mods to move the thread to q&a forum
Try rocket rom, is sooooooo original. It's the only 4.03
Thread moved and closed
Questions never belong in General.
You've been given the answers you need, do your own research and study before flashing anything.
