CM6 STABLE
Root-Hack-Mod-Always™

Are you fully wiping your phone (data and Dalvik) in recovery before flashing any of these new ROMs? If not, that's probably why they are all looping for you. You need to completely wipe your phone before you flash any new ROM.
Also, if you are flashing any ROMs that have an overclocked default kernel in them, it could be possible that your phone can't boot at OC speeds which also causes it to bootloop.

Are you wiping before loading new roms? If you load - say Fresh 2.4 for example - and you're getting boot loops with it - are you wiping before you try to install a rom like CM6?
and the second post is definitely right on - CM6 is excellent -

Easiest Way to Flash Back to CyanoGen Mod Stable Version (1.4.1?)

I flashed to the CyanogenMOD 4.0.4 ROM then flashed in Ted's Hero theme for that rom and then all hell broke loss. My phone is suddenly unstable. To get back to the original 4.0.4 rom do i just wipe and then load it on again?
Also, any reason why a theme should make the phone unstable? It thought that all the theme really did was to replace some of the system images.
Thanks

Well I'm not really sure why in the world you would be using a CM ROM with version 1.anything... The most recent ROM is version 4.0.4. Now if you flashed his recovery image version 1.4 that is not a ROM and a theme will mess with a ROM it was not built for. If you really are using his ROM version 1.4.1 then Ted's hero theme is built for version 4.0.4 so yes you will run into lots of issues.
Yes, just wipe and reflash.
Also questions belong in Q&A.
Title should say 4.0.4? build not 1.4.1. sorry about that.

Did you wipe before you flashed CM 4.0.4 and the theme? You shouldnt have to but it might help resolve any issues. You also might want to reformat your ext partition.

try the wipe first, make sure you have the update.zip on the root of your sd card, then use the good old power off then hold home and power button and flash the update
I wiped before the 4.0.4 ROM install yes. obviously not between the 4.0.4 and the theme.
All i'm really wondering is to get back to 4.0.4 can i just wipe and reload? Wipe essentally clears the phone of anything that was on it correct?
wiped and reloaded 4.0.4 build, worked like a charm...thanks guys for help. quick side question...just need a short answer...is installing the stable hero rom that is floating around as easy as the cyanogenMod? or is it much more complicated?

You need to have the newest radio and Haykuro's Special SPL installed to run any Hero ROM. once that is on it is just as easy to flash a hero ROM. If yo install the new SPL make sure to follow the instructions exactly to avoid bricking your phone.

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.

[Q] Boot Loop when installing ROM

Hey guys; i'll try to provide you with all the information but honestly i'm not 100% on all of it so try and be patient.
I'm trying to go back to SuperE from Froyo by Laszlo which was absolutely killing my battery without me even using it. However, every time i flash it (and i wipe everything) after it goes past the G1 screen it just resets again.
I'm not sure if this is maybe because of the new kernel (2708) which i'm PRETTY sure i have, but am not 100%. I do know that i have one of the new radios though.
Would the kernel be causing the problem? If so how do i downgrade?
I hope you can help me out!
Thank you!
Q: Can you mention step-by-step what did you flash? And confirm the exact setup before flashing. I believe you mentioned your radio is 2708.
Powered by Android
Thank you for replying. I'll definitely try.
I'm back on FroyoByLaszlo-int2.1 because i couldn't successfully flash either Super D or Super E.
My Radio is 2.22.28.25
Kernel version says 2.6.35.10 - froyobylaszlo
Basically i did what i always do. I wiped everything, first by flashing the "all-wipe" and then going back and wiping it all manually.
Then i flashed the appropriate gapps, followed by the ROM. Rebooted afterwards, but every time it gets passed the G1 screen it reboots.
The only thing i can think of is incompatibility with the kernel but then again, i don't know crap, so that's why i'm asking
Yep, most likely it is indeed the incompatibility of the kernel with the radio.
I'd try flashing the ezBiffTestKernel20101106-2708.zip after the ROM+GApps.
Just use Google to find the kernel.

The battery drain could be becos of the new kernel. Try installing the 35.9 kernel from ezterry (the one he had for CyanogenMod 6.1 2708) It is working good for me, the battery last for a whole day.

Use the new hboot. Perform a full wipe of everything...
Follow the instructions carefully....down to the last word. It should work out just fine. I had installed this rom (perhaps a prior version of it) a few months ago without any issues. So, I do not see any reason why you cannot either.
if you do all above including system wipe and it still hangs, it may just be too many bad blocks. not uncommon for some on sense/desire roms

[Q]Flashing the same rom makes the device unusable

Let's say i got a rom that performs amazingly,super fast tab switch,good at multi tasking,25k in benchmark.
Then I want to try a new rom,so I flash the new rom after cleaning my devide,as i should do.
But I don't like it or whatever and I want to return to the old one. But after I flash the old rom the performance is extremely bad,getting random systemui FC ,reboots,etc.
Why is this happening? Right now I'm running out of roms that I can use on my phone,as I cannot go back to the ones that I really liked. Please help
It also happens when a developer posts a new build of a rom. If i got the previous build installed and i flash the new one,the rom is broken again.

I use Philz recovery and before flashing a new rom i just simply hit Clean up to install a new rom.
I never faced any of the issue that u mentioned. Try following what i said.
If u are using a lollipop rom then u may face systemui FC ,reboots as there is a bug which is experienced by some users.
I tried every recovery, twrp with full device wipe,cwm with their wipe,and philz with full wipe and the one you mentioned.
The issues happen in every rom,wether it's 3.2,4.4 or 5.x.
