Hey guys I'm very new to all this, I just used the z4root (Permenent root) method on my g1 dream and I would like to try a new rom on it but for some reason rom manager will not flash clockwork mod recovery or amon on it, it keeps saying that an error has occured when trying to access special privileges or something like that. does is matter if I'm using the free version or not? and do I need to put a custome hboot or bootloader on the phone as well? I've been reading for the last two days through these forums and I'm really lost and confused on how to do this. I understand that I must flash the rom from the custom recovery but can I get to the recovery through the hboot/bootloader once the custom recovery is flashed? Please help anyone. I appreciate it.
Never used z4 so cant really help there but i do know that you need a custom recovery to flash anything. So the question is can you get a recovery flashed. Can you boot into the os and log in? if so maybe you can get a terminal from the market and flash amonra from there with the instructions in his op. Not sure but worth a try.
z4root dont work proplerly try unviersal androot
Cool, hey johnson8 I really appreciate your help...so you're saying that the z4root has something to do with my phone not being able to download three recovery?

It might. I rooted mine the one click method a long time ago. Before these apps came out. Never liked rom manager either to be honest. I would try the androot the other Guy suggested really. See how it goes

Waited for 15 and still nothing...trying super froyo.v.8 been about eight mins and the same thing..could it be my boot loader or should I use amon ra instead of clockwork to flash? A little frustrating...Dangit!

Go to ezterry thread on 14 MB hack and fastboot flash new amonra recovery the radio and spl. Follow all instructions in there and try again. That will get u a good recovery new radio/spl and more ram comes with it. The new roms need that combo.

This is the guide you need to set up adb on your computer.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719
If you have any questions i will try to help. After this is done you should be set up to run adb and fastboot commands from your pc.
Do everything in this guide except the recovery image. You will be doing that via ezterry's thread with amonra recovery. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Good luck
Ok will do..I appreciate all your help and have a safe trip..

No problem. I check frequently so if u have any questions I'll try to answer promptly. Also u will see shadowch31 in ezterry's thread among others. He can help guide as well. Just follow instructions exactly and don't freak out and pull your battery during any of the process even if it looks hung. Good luck

I've followed the instructions below for installing jelly bean and my phone will do everyhing but once I flash the jelly bean ROM (and I've tried 3 different ones) they all get stuck at the boot screen. The phone is unlocked, rooted, has ext4recovery, blackrose, sd partitioned . Current ROM is cm 10 and its sitting at the cm screen. It will go into fastboot. Everything was done according to the instructions. What is missing. Please help me. Been working on it for hours.
Thank you

Is your partition layout 268/168/0? Can't really read it on that small picture. If it is, then there's your problem. Or do you have an ext-partition for A2SD on your µSD-card for userdata?
Unfortunately, no it is an 8. Darn. I also do not have that other thing you asked installed on the card.
I just can't quite understand why it appears that everything is set up right but just gets stuck at that boot screen.
Please if you can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

So it's 268/160/8 ? Then there's still your problem. It should be 268/8/160 [system/cache/userdata].
Thank you soooo much!! I have a question. How do I change it ? I wonder how come it isn't right.. But, most importantly I am grateful for you helping me.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
You can change it by using blackrose.exe or by flashing one of these partition layouts in your recovery.
I believe they are not all on the front page, so search inside that topic too if you can't find your preferred partition layout.

Resize BlackRose (system : 260, cache: 8 , the rest will automatically be set to userdata).
And install 4EXT recovery on your phone and re-partition your SD card. That is what tommert38 has mentioned over there. You need atleast 1 GB of space in order to install apps onto your SD card.
recovery flashable zip of 260/8/168

No, you would not need that. a2sd comes with the JB Rom you are going to flash be it Evervolv or Vijendrahs

OK. I went back and saved hboot to sd card then followed instructions exactly. When I flashed the hboot it quickly flashed a screen and all I saw was installation aborted then it rebooted me back to the fastboot menu. Any suggestions???

Nice, enjoy dude!
Okay so.. I rooted my phone using one in all tool kit.. everything went fine.. I installed recovery from there and perm rooted my phone.. I installed cwm touch recovery gsm only since I m in India using the phone.. it's stock rooted..
My problem is.. when I tried flashing the crt off animation.. it shows me flash successful.. but when I tried it.. it doesn't work.. neither did the APM work.. so I thought it might be the recovery.. so I installed twr recovery.. again it showed me all the flashes were successful.. still they don't work.. any ideas as to why this is happening?
Thanks in advance...

hello, demkantor, can I ask you something? I'm currently using a .0013d SPL and its S-ON ship, some here at xda say that S-ON ship bootloaders only have a few fastboot commands, I dunno if that is tru but I tried to change my slash scree with this SPL but I can't so what I did is to change it on .2005 which is S-OFF and eng and from there I successfully change my splash screen, after that I go back to .0013d spl since it was required for the rom I'm currently using, so I just want to ask if how can I make this .0013d spl an S-OFF Eng.? greatly appreciated if you can help me, thanks in advance,
If you can do this you would be a truly awesome dev
This bootloader is already hacked to work with our phone, if you can transform it to an engineering bootloader that would be awesome!
So unfortunately you'll have to flash the orange.nbh each time you want to change splash screen

TWRP/CWM is for flashing roms, doing backups, etc. The stock recovery is mainly flashed before returning for a replacement or repairs.
