put that file you downloaded on the root of your sdcard, rename it to update.zip or just update in windows. power off your phone. hold home and power to boot your phone into the recovery console. press alt and l to show text if none is showing, then press alt and s to apply update.zip from sdcard. when it is done, press home and back to reboot.
1. there are stickies for a reason.
2. a development forum is not a place for a question not directly related to development (and then most questions should not be posted there)
3. you have just been told.
4. sadly for you, i am about as nice as they get.

do i have to have the dreaimg.nbh on my card as well?

no, that is only for when you downgrade to rc-29, after you have downgraded you can remove the DREAIMG.nbh from your sdcard (i would keep it on my computer though for future use.)

at the top when i hit alt + l it said error cant open E:/ cahe / something or other ... am i in trouble?
also, everyone is always talking about flashing this and flashing that on here, is that all you do is download the rom and rename as update and boot the phone? every damn how to thread seemed quirky ...

is your sdcard formatted to fat32? also is the whole name of the file update.zip?

yeah i reformatted to fat32 ... i had everything right and then all of a sudden i couldnt locate a link that worked for cynaogen (sp?) 4.0.4 or whatever so i said screw it and wanted to unroot it ...
btw, the update worked i have 1.5 now, but it still said that at the top after alt + l ... i dunno

don't know about the error then
i have a link for 4.0.4 and 4.1.11.1 on my 4shared account

man do i sound like i know what a 4shared account is, or where to find it? ... thanks for the help btw ... i thought this forum was dead but i guess there are some people who post in here frequently ...
o one last thing, the reason why i ultimately decided to unroot is because when i started with the recovery image i believe and i entered the SU at the beginning of the code is said access denied ... i searched the forum and it said download something else but that link was dead as well ...
i dont know if youre a mod david but i think it would be useful to create one thread where you can flash to look exactly like the iphone ui ... i'm talking an all inclusive with the most basic of directions and detailed commands ... there are a few in depth all encompassing reviews but a simple thread named "Hero For G1" with everything you need would help a lot ...
thanks again ...
edit... can i remove the zip file "update" from my sd card now?

nawh i am not a mod, 4shared is like mediafire or rapidshare. its just a place you can upload files to and give put links to it. the reason all the links are dead now are because of all the recent crap between google and cyanogen. i am not really all that good at making tutorials (i lose steam about halfway through)
also the update.zip file is no longer need.
if you want to root your phone again, i can pm you all the files and you can use the one click root method in my sig.
also as far as i am aware there is no iphone theme or ui really available though there could be an app on the market that emulates it.

No market in my legend need help

Just bought legend "from vodafone egypt" and it came with arabic rom. The market is missing and it drive my fiancee mad "her bd gift" any way I pulled the market app of my g1 "runnign cm6 rc2" and my question is...
Can I like adb push and adb install on this legend while it's unrooted or not?
Please help
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App

you're probably going to have to root it and install another rom, unless there is a market apk floating around there somewhere.
either way, i expect a root is necessary.

i do have the market app pulled from my g1 phone, so i was just asking can i do an adb push / adb install on a non rooted phone... & how ?

hey,
Same here, I just bought HTC Legend a few hours ago from Vodafone to use the "Market" but I didn't find it. I also grabbed the original Market package from the forum, it's called vending.apk, did you find a way to put it into /system/app ? As every time I try to do so it give me an error message "Cannot paste Vending.apk from clipboard, and when I just tried to install it from the sdcard it don't work correctly, so please let me know if you find a way to insert it into /system/app.
Thanks
Ahmad

same here, just bougth yesterday "from vodafone egypt" with the arabic ROM. Just can confirm, that there is no Market application....

Im not sure why this happens, Im no expert, but there a couple apps that I have on my phone that I couldnt install normally because it would say "application not installed" in the end. What I had to do was push them directly to my /system/app folder and they worked then. But I'm not even sure if you can do that with an unrooted phone. But I figured it was worth mentioning cause I think theres a thread on here that mentions sideloading and not needing root?

[Q] I really need help.

To whomever reads this,I've been tryin to root my droid 3 for about a month now,failed every time.I've tried every method I know n they all generally give me the same outcome,a signature verification fail or other things along those lines.this is my 2nd droid 3,first one no idea what happened but it root no problem,this one is giving me hell,if u need the kernal r anything of that sort I can tell you it,but my android version is 2.3.4 stock everything.I would love any help or advice,and please don't tell me search the forums,Ive looked high and low n everywhere in between no one has an answer to this?the one I read that might be possible help requires that your phones already rooted which is redundant seein as one can't root the phone in the first place.please help me im extremly frustrated.also try to give me step by step just so I can make sure im not doin a single thing wrong.

Gingerbreak,motofail,had a copy of petes one click,(I used to root my orirginal droid 3)universal one click,the update.zip on my sd z4root n some others but like I said all of em said something along the lines of access denied or signature fail. Thanks for the post though.

hello
Like sed ovelayer you must use this (motofail) http://bit.ly/yGewgE
(remember if you click RUN.BAT you phone must be connected to pc with charging only mode)
and it this will dont work you must try download newest moto drivers.
best regards

[Q] Followed Tuts and this is where I am can anyone help?

Right firstly appologise to the admin for posting earlier in the wrong thread, but gratitude for you patience and direction to getting me to the point where I currently am. which is.... Ive followed the tuts from getting my phone from the exclamationion/pc symbol, re-installed the correct firmware and followed the rooting tut. I am on 2.3.6 android version S5830NEKT2 baseband [email protected]#1 kernel version gingerbread build no:. my question is (and believe me I have searched all evening through the forums to try to gain the knowledge myself and leave the busy guys doing what they do best behind the scenes) I cant seem to unlock all the ****e apps that come pre-installed with the phone... all i want to do is free up phone memory, and maybe install a stable sci-fi fancy looking rom/SHELL. however when i try to uninstall/view or any thing via CWM/AppMaster/installmanager/ESfileexplorer I keep getting the same message about my phone "MUST BE ROOTED" first. I did get the message at the end of rooting via the tuts and was told to thank the guy... which I did (and still do) can anyone tell me where I went wrong? I am at present thinking that maybe installing a custom ROM (currently looking at cryogen latest) would resolve my hassles am I correct?
I am extremely gratefull for you chaps on XDA for getting me this far and hope I dont come across any other way. I would be content with at least having my phone working thanks to you guys but, just cant shake the feeling I am a midges **** off from sorting the root problem can anyone help me....
ps... had a few beers so am off to bed to sleep on it for now... I have a shed load of kids and a moaning wife with a list of jobs todo over the weekend,so I will get back to this during nxt week sometime. Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated...
FRANKLY MY PHONE IS NEARLY AS OLD AS ME.. AND IM SURPRISED THE SUPPORT IS STILL OUT THERE :laugh:

You won't be able to install custom rom if you are not rooted and have cwm(clockworkmod) installed on your phone...
And i suggest u to use root explorer for exploring your system and/or deleting some system apps...

I have tried using ES via the phone but there dosnt seem to be any files in the root folder to delete.

i mean is the app called "Root Explorer"
go to /system/app, that is where the system app located...
what do you mean there is no any files?
