New Rooting My Nexus - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Nexus for a couple of months, last week I downloaded the Universal Androot to root my phone and works great now I have more apps to use, now I want install the last Cyanogen rom to shoot 720p video. I also downloaded ROM Manager from the market but I don't know what to do.
My question are: What I have to do next? There's a application to shot 720p video without change the ROM?
Thanks

No, that's a rom level change.

Use ROM manager, download cyan ROM. It will ask you to backup first, do that so you can return to your phone as it is now just in case. Then let it do its thing and enjoy the new ROM.
At that point when you're running cyan, read thru all the threads in development section, and themes, and get to work flashing away

Also click to download Google Apps too. Click to wipe and back up and Rom Manager takes care of the rest. CM6 RC3 it awesome, have fun.

Hi everyone
I did all you told me to do and now I have my Nexus with Cyanogen 6.0 running thanks for the help.

Latest Sense UI Rom for Nexus One

Hello Xda Developers!
I was told to come here to post my question. I'm a Nexus One user, who is about to load Sense UI on his standard factory shipped N1. I'm going to use a guide from Anroid Central, which I'm happy with.
My question, is when it comes to chosing a ROM to load on my device. How do I know which one is the latest/greatest/safest? There are many links to Sense UI Roms on the net, and most date back to Feb 2010. Surely in 4 months a more recent version has been released than early Alpha versions.
Is there a version control site, with links/reviews anywhere, or is it just a case of download it and if it doesn't brick your handset then you found a working one.
Thanks for the advice in advance.
Jim.
Don't know if this is the best or not
but it worth a try
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=636048&highlight=desire
Its A port of sense ROM from Desire Phone
Which is very similar to the N1
And its build by Modaco Which is a very great person I think
I believe Modaco's is the latest. He planned on releasing a Beta but I don't think he ever did due to FroYo.
Cool, thanks for the feedback guys.

Have you tried it?
OK I've just loaded it, and it just loops on the HTC Quietly Brilliant boot up screen, any suggestions?
Wipe the phone and reflash. Make sure you have a 2.1 radio.
Thanks for the reply, can you please explain in more detail, I am a n00b to flashing phones. Thanks in advance.
Hi sorry, let me provide more information to where I'm at. I unlocked and rooted my phone. Did the backup, when I went to load the Sense UI rom, I got to the white loading screen and it looped there.
Since this I have found a FroYo Rom and have successfully loaded it. So I'm back to where I started, but at least my phone isn't a brick. I'm after a good working Rom or advice on how to get that other one to load. Many thanks in advance peeps.
Kingklick's Nexus2Desire 1.1 is the newest and fastest the I know.
Again, from recovery, wipe the phone, then install the rom.

It should be as simple as wiping everything and flashing the ROM, it really isn't that complicated.
Cool! Got it working guys. Had loads of issues using Modacos Roms, seems to be just me, but then loaded on
Release Name: KiNgxKxNexus Desire2Nexus
Release Version: 1.1
And worked like a dream, no issues at all, good speed. Yeah sorry, the instructions were clear, I was just freaking out a bit coz I thought I'd bricked my phone.
Sense is a far superior OS, except one thing which really bugs me, if you use the unlock pattern, you are forced to swipe first to unlock, which you don't on standard android, if this is the 2nd release, surely they would have fixed this by now? Any one know of any hacks to bypass this?
Thanks for all your help.

hello guys!

Now that i have done the one click rooting to my phone"nexus one 2.2 Froyo with ""universal androot"" I was just wondering what would be the BEST rom to install on my phone.What advice would you give me with your experiences. what extra things do i need to consider putting on my phone. what would be a good security apps to hold intruders from getting in my phone..i have heard of overclocking but have no clue as to set it up and at what frequency...I would like to keep my hot-spot , perhaps increase the sound quality and have a 720 cap camera just to name a few.Any help would be greatly appreciated
Regards
I've got Cyanogenmod 6 on mine and I've loving it. Fast, stable, and looks great!
cool.now my question to you is where do i get a safe link to download and what are the steps to do so..thanks for your feed back
Go to Development section and read. Each ROM has a thread containing instructions for installation.
I suggest Enomther's ROM.
hey!!!
I am so happy.I tried into recovery mode but I could not find the rom there.did not know if i had to rename it or....anyways ...i went into the rom manager that I had downloaded from there the whole thing was self explanatory.I did download the cyanogenmod 6 fist and then the kernel .wow this is amazing .I wish I had done that a long long time ago.My contribution to this great team is on the way ang in the near future!! thanks guys!!
Nice going! Where did u find universal androot?
so if i use this on my unrooted nexus one 2.2, i can get root access apps?
Im not interested in custom roms just want to uninstall apps like amazon and twitter and use apps like titanium backup.
Will i receive OTA updates? and you can un-root right?

Custom Rom Options?

Hey everyone. I'm posting here because I have a friend with a Captivate and I'm trying to get him to root his phone.
I sent him the link to the 1 click root but I don't know what rom to have him flash. I have an EVO and in the EVO forums we have a sticky with all the custom roms listed so it's easy to see what's there. Is there anything like that for you guys?
He's basically looking for a stable 2.2 rom.

The Captivate DEV scene isn't too large right now, (most of them are in the Vibrant section) We have few custom roms, but the ones you can find, along with mods can be found in the Development section of Captivate.

This is very true. Most went to vibrant because they were ex-G1 users. However the good news is the most of the coding will be the same so they are relatively easy to port. I have a feeling the captivate will not be getting as much dev action, and most people are switching from windows mobile or iPhone and have no android dev experience. But it will eventually speed up
Don't have him flash a custom ROM just to flash a custom ROM. Right now there are a limited number of ROMs, and he can read up on them in the dev to see if there is anything changes in the newer firmwares that would make it worth his time to flash. AFAIK, there are no fully functional, stable 2.2 ROMs (although the leaked build for the i9000/international version does mostly work, I think). There are also a few leaked updates to the 2.1 firmware.

Yea, that's why I am asking if there are any stable 2.2 roms yet. But as I gather there aren't. I'll just tell him to keep his eyes open here.
I've been using Cognition 2.2b6 for about 4 months now with no problems. Seems to be the most stable rom out there for the captivate.
I've been using Cognition 2.3b3 for several weeks and it's working great, the only issue for me is the android email process crashes on startup, I use the gmail app anyway, so its a non issue for me... It took 3 or 4 days to get the correct order of opperations, it seems not everything you find on XDA works for every Captivate, I guess AT&T keeps disabling settings and crapware crippling the phone... But the order that worked for me was:
STOCK AT&T 2.2 FROYO:

ROOT:

Now that I've done all this I could NEVER go back to stock, it's like having a completely different phone... Unbelievable upgrade. F-U AT&T.
Hands down Cognition to start. When he's ready to move on Cognadian Bacon!
Swyping...please read slowly!
Cool. Thanks for all the replies. I just flashed the latest Cognition beta for him yesterday actually. He's so much happier. Haha.

I was gonna say perseption. Its really the most captivate friendly of the ports for other galaxy s phones. You get the reorient kernel with overclock undervoult, universal lagfix, clockwork mod instead of 2e recovery, and you get working bluetooth audio, normal batery life, multiple fonts, password/pin number/pattern security, other things i forgot.
Axura looks amazing but noone will answer my questios about bugs. And there is no known issues listing.

[Q] BEST ROM with working FLASH PLAYER on cdma hero

Hey guys I'm a noob and sprint decided to give me a hero do to my defective noment I took it over the intercept because of the support here on XDA and I've been lookin around and I like but my question remains what's the best rom for the cdma hero that will still allow the flasplayer to work any ideas or ways to keep makin it work. THANX
Unfortunately, full flash support can not be achieved. There's a light version out there, but I don't know how well it works.

I believe Nfinite's Roms have Flash Lite, and then using a browser like Skyfire gives additional flash support as it deals with it server side.
Use Nfinites rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849024 there and then do a search for Zen's Any Kernal with no Perflock. It makes it an extremely snappy Sense Rom. Only Sense has the Flash working, none of the AOSP roms do I believe.
Only downside is Nfinite is on Hiatus due to some personal stuff but he has popped back in and said he isn't gone, just dealing with it and plans to update again soon.
my replyo
ok thanx so fo example even I port the flash light apk (htc flash player) can I at least use that on the aosp rom or the cm 6 or does they need the sense to even aollow it to work ? I just want to be ready to root asap when the hero arrives tomorow
You cannot use those functions in an AOSP rom, has to be with sense.
Ok one last thing before I do this once I get my recovery going and I'm rooted of course I do a data wipe then apply a zip (rom) file correct and if I want to try other roms repeat the proscces. Right just want to make sure. That's how I would do it on my moment

Yes you would go to recovery, do a factory reset, wipe Dalvik, Cache, etc and then you can flash the new zip for the rom you wish to try.
Most roms will have a sort of guide or instructions, some have things specific to the rom being flashed, so make sure and read the full post, and maybe browse the thread for tidbits that users have had to say about the rom.

[Q] Rooting this phone and installing latest CM7

Hi,
my friend bought this phone and wants me to "fix it up" for him. I am completelly unfamiliar with this phone and Samsung in general, so I need a little help.
I have scoured these forums for the last hour and there is TONS of information available. It's really difficult to judge which posts are outdated and which are still working.
Basically what I want is this:
1. Root the phone
2. Install CWM
2. Install latest CM7 for this phone.
I reckon the root works with using SuperOneClick, correct? And for CWM I thought I'm gonna use this?
But I am at a complete loss when it comes to which CM7 to choose, there are tons of them? Can someone recommend me a fresh, stable, debloated and fast CM7 ROM with everything working?
Thanks.
I managed to get root and clockwork mod up and running.
Any ideas for which Rom?

1) For rooting, refer to this thread - http://yagyagaire.blogspot.in/2011/08/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-popmini.html
It does not matter if it outdated - all you have to do is go to superuser app, and choose update binaries. You will get latest version.
2) For now, i personally don't feel you should use CWM 6. the version i am using (CWM 5) has no bugs and works perfectly. here is the link -
http://yagyagaire.blogspot.in/2012/02/clockwork-mod-touch-for-galaxy-mini-gt.html
3) As for ROMs, there is a large collection out there. It all depends on your choice. For example, if you want:
A stock based ROM choose something like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861240
or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576996
or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074556 (which is CM10.1 - Jellybean)
Or another CM10.1 ROM which works very well - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2227481
Or maybe another interesting ROM which im sure you will like, which has interesting tweaks like android version - 5.0.0.5 (lol)
Cyanogen mod 7 music edition - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329551&highlight=emanon
Or the experience ROM by autoradio, which allow a lot of customization - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2193327
This is another really good ROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1754694
PS the question "best ROM" is always being asked and is then subsequently closed by a mod, so read the rules next time
Another thing you should know is NEVER use an app called ROM manger. it will brick your phone.
I supposs this cover everything
Press thanks if i helped
