Hi,
I read everything i could find and I still can't get anything to work properly on the phone.
Is there even a milestone wiki so i know which version my phone is?
I got the open recovery thing to work once, but i can't get it to work again, it keeps saying I have a cache error. what do i do?
also, when I install app2card, it totally ruins my phone, is that app meant for my phone?
I tried to install app2sd, but it keeps saying busy box permission failed something.
I got my phone thru ebay, how can i check the region?
I just know I have an unbranded milestone.
I google all these questions and nothing helpful comes up.
Can somone please tell me how to get into recover again?
Do i need to reflash it?
I only got into it once and installed the zip.
but when i try to run the zip again, i get an error.
If you have nandroid file in your sdcard,you can copy and paste (anything that is important to you) to your PC.
1. Take out your sdcard and pluck it to your PC if your Milestone cannot switch ON
2. Format your sdcard via PC
3. Extract G.O.T OpenRecovery v2.00 or Androidiani OpenRecovery 3.3 to the root of
your sdcard. (you'll see OpenRecovery folder and update.zip) Put the sdcard to your
Milestone and enter bootloader.(Press and hold volume up+camera key & power ON)
4. Open RSDlite and connect to your Milestone. Flash sbf to your Milestone,stock ROM
or 2.2.1 G.O.T beta version
Guide -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696845
5. Your Milestone will be switch ON after flashing sbf is done. Turn it OFF and enter
into recovery. Press X button and power ON. Once you see the triangle and '!',
press volume up and camera key.
6. You'll see Recovery 2e, all letters in blue, select update and the rest is your choice.
You can nandroid backup if your Milestone works as before and restore your previous nandroid that you copy to your PC.
Yes i did that the first time and it worked.
but how can i get into it again to make a backup?
thanks
You mean you still can't get into the recovery mode after formatting your sdcard? Even with the button combination:
PRESS AND HOLD 'X' AND POWER ON THE PHONE, LET GO ONLY AFTER YOU SEE THE TRIANGLE AND '!' MARK ???
I get to the triangle.
and it get to the recover menu. but when i press install the zip again.
an error message pops up.
do i need to redo step 3 and 4 everytime i want to go into recovery menu?
what open recovery u r using? GOT or androidiani?
if its GOT then try switchin to androidiani to check if the problem presist, vice versa.
report back here if there is any improvement.
one more question:
when u enter the bootloader menu (pressing the up dpad and power key) wat bootloader version it states there?
Thanks
I'll try it out tonight been a bit busy this week.
does Flash sbf do anything to my system?
for example, will i need to reflash my current rom after doing Flash sbf?
I know for the x10 mini pro, after doing update.zip i will need to reflash the rom.
is it the same for milestone?
I still can't get it to work.
here are my steps.
My phone is already rooted.
and I already flashed the Recovery-Only SBF when i installed the new rom. (do i need to redo this step? Maybe I'm using an outdated version?)
Can someone link me to the file if there is a better one, all the links are dead.
I am using this version: vulnerable_recovery_only_RAMDLD90_78
I downloaded this:
http://groupoften.wordpress.com/2010/10/22/new-g-o-t-openrecovery-v2-01-launched/
I put the files on the root of my SD:
OpenRecovery
OpenRecovery-CFG (do i need this?)
update.zip
I press the Up dpad and power, I get the triangle thing.
I press the install.zip and still cache error?
E:can't open /ache/recovery/command
I don't get what the readme in the GOT is telling me to do.
it says:
create a folder in /OpenRecovery/recoveries ( for example "My_OR_MOD" i don't use space in folder name, to avoid problems)
does that mean I make a copy of the "openrecovery" folder and put it back inside the "openrecovery" folder? that means every thing will be duplicated? is this correct?
thanks
I would try the androidiani, but i can not find the english guide.
Edit:
just tried androidiani, and I'm still getting E:can't open /ache/recovery/command

I haven't fixed it yet. Am not able to place the recovery image using fastboot - my phone is not recognized by the computer
Work around I've found for flashing the recovery image if you can't figure out fastboot (I've never got it to work) is like this:
1. Follow the root procedure.
2. Install the most recent CM rom without using the HTC image (reason I do this is he's got some linux commands built into his ROM that aren't installed in the vanilla android build).
3. Download the cm-recovery-1.4.img to your sd card (or whichever recovery image you like)
4. Run terminal commands like so:
$su root (the reason I do this is it gives you higher level access to the system than just su, and I've found it doesn't work with just su for some reason)
#flash recovery /sdcard/cm-recovery-1.4.img
#reboot
5. Hold your home key as it powers up, and you should have the new recovery image installed.
Of course, I'd say do a full wipe, then install the ROM, and go through the fix permissions and clear cache.

You won't be able to use terminal from recovery until you have a thirdparty recovery image installed. The steps I've listed are for a working phone, and I'm sure that's where part of your problem is. I'd suggest doing a wipe (Alt+W) and going through the root process again. When you get the CM Rom, change the name of it to update.zip, then try the steps I mentioned. I'd suggest having a separate SD card with just DREAMIMG.nbh installed on it for emergencies (especially if you're going to partition your main card).
Thanks
2) Install the most recent CM rom without using the HTC image(What is it? Can explane?)
4) Terminal as i understand its Telnet?
Can i do works a boot mode and then downgrade it to RC29?? Because after it i'll know what to do... Thanks!

Basically to get this working you're going to need to downgrade to RC29 first - so follow the root instructions.
CM = CyanogenMod ROM. To get his working fully you need two roms, which are the HTC Developer ROM and the 4.x ROMs he created (reason being legal distribution of software), but for my instructions, on his ROM page, you're going to skip his instructions, just download his ROM, rename it to update.zip and just flash it from the stock recovery, just so you can get to the terminal once the phone boots up and load terminal (it's in the programs tray). When another screen pops up asking if you want to allow it to use SU functions (it will as soon as you type "su") hit allow.
Terminal is a program downloadable from the Market, it's included with the CM ROM.
His instructions for install are not going to work unless you have a thirdparty recovery image, which at this point from the description, the triangle with the exclamation point is the default system recovery image.
CM Rom page
You should be able to find the Root posts and choose a customed recovery image, there's about 4 or 5 really good ones, I use Cyanogen's, thus my instructions on how to flash it.
You're fortunate that you're getting to the stock recovery, means your phone isn't bricked.

Not sure what you mean? Telnet for these intents and purposes is basically just a command. The page on how to root has become pretty convoluted at this point. The part where it tells you to type 'telnetd' is just running a script which is an exploit in the old releases of android. You won't be messing with Terminal really until you get to the point where you've updated the rom. From this point, I'd suggest downloading this root.apk from your browser, install it, allow it, follow the instructions step by step in the program.
My problem consist of that i can't turn on my phone and i can't get into bootloader...only recovery can you give me a link for RC29 download and then install it from recovery on my g1 from recovery.
Thanks!

You don't...with the DREAMIMG.nbh or any .nbh file you start up the phone holding power+camera. The recovery mode looks for an update.img file. You'll make it through, don't get frustrated.
Here's a more updated rooting guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=553416
For these steps to work, ensure that your Milestone currently contains an unprotected recovery image (eg. Brazilian 2.0.1 SPF or the vulnerable recovery SPF for 2.1 Milestones).
Also ensure that you have installed the Android SDK so that you can access your phone with ADB.
These instructions are mostly based on user poseiden's guide at alldroid.org, before the site went down and was cleaned up.
How to make a Nandroid backup
Download the ADBRecovery files from here.
Unzip the archive onto the base of your SD card, so that you have a /recovery folder and an update.zip (NOTE: if you had an earlier update.zip, it will be overwritten with the ADBRecovery update.zip, so back up or rename the original update.zip.)
Reboot your phone into recovery menu:
Turn off phone
Press Camera button, then press Power. Hold them both till you see recovery screen.
Press Volume Up and Camera button at the same time till you see the recovery menu.
Run the update.zip.
Connect via ADB and execute:
If you want everything backed up:
Code:
nandroid-mobile.sh --backup
If you don't want your installed apps + data backed up:
Code:
nandroid-mobile.sh --backup --nodata --nocache --nomisc
How to do a Nandroid restore
Ensure the Nandroid backup content is found under your phone's /sdcard/nandroid/console=ttyS2,115200n8 folder.
Ensure the /recovery folder and ADBRecovery update.zip is at the base of your SD card.
Reboot your phone into recovery menu:
Turn off phone
Press Camera button, then press Power. Hold them both till you see recovery screen.
Press Volume Up and Camera button at the same time till you see the recovery menu.
Run the update.zip.
Connect via ADB and execute:
Code:
nandroid-mobile.sh --restore
Type the name of the backup you want to restore.
Telus 2.0.1 unrooted backup
Here's a clean Telus Milestone 2.0.1 Nandroid backup. I found this one on the web, and then I removed the "su" and "Superuser.apk" files so that it's no longer rooted. Sorry, the original source is uncredited as I forgot where I got it from.
As far as I know, there is no shipped SPF of the 2.0.1 Telus firmware, so this is your only option to go back to stock.
http://www.multiupload.com/TA8V2QPJEO
I used this to restore back to stock Telus Milestone ROM so that I could return the device. The only thing different from the original purchased state was the recovery SPF, but that would be really hard to tell or to find out (just a version number difference).
There's a step missing from the backup process. You need to 'flash' the update.zip from the recovery menu before you can connect over adb.

You just saved my Milestone. Thank you x10!
(using xperia x10)
I've made a lot of modifications to my stock rom, and would like to share it.... so is system.img a valid way to share my *own* rom or mod ? (valid as in technically feasible? means ppl can d/l it n flash using recovery n use it?)
my main concerns are... will it boot on someone else's device? (i tried it myself... total wipe + clean stock instal, followed by flashing only my backed up system.img, *didn't flash data.img, only system* it took an eternity to boot first time but it ran)
second concern... system.img doesn't have any personal data right? logs, msgs etc are in data partition i guess??

Trying to get CWM installed (to eventually get CM7 installed) on my friend's Captivate running stock 2.1-update1 to no avail. We have it rooted, we have ROM manager installed, but no matter what I do when it comes to flashing a recovery, it does not work. When I go to flash the update.zip, it says file is not found because it doesn't seem to be downloading anything at all. Any help?
EDIT: I think I got it, might have just been selecting the wrong option.....
If it doesn't work then try this. This will work. Btw rom manager does not play nice with captivates. I would not suggest it.
Download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?ve234hbg64ctcu0
Then follow these instructions.
step 4: Install clockwork recovery.
1. Go to the download folder and rename clockworkrecovery.zip to update.zip. Mount your phone and drag the update.zip file into the root directory. It is ok to overwrite the update.zip you used before. When it is done copying turn off your phone.
2. Unplug your phone and hold down both volume buttons and the power button until a strange menu with blue items pops up. This is called the recovery menu.
3. Scroll using the volume buttons to the menu item titled "reinstall packages" and press the power button to select. (you may have to do this twice to get it to work)
4. Your phone should restart and you should be at a green menu.

yeah we got it to work but thank you so very much for your instructions. My friend is basically amazed at the speed and flexibility of CM7 over that Eclair bloated it piece of garbage the stock rom is.
Wow... This Worked in July 2013
I pulled an old Captivate from the drawer that has Android 2.1-update (Eclair) on it and could not for the life of me recall how to get CWM Recovery so I can start installing some later ROMS.
The method you provided worked. Downloaded that file, put it into the phone's internal memory, root directory, changed name to update.zip, got into Samsung recovery, and on the SECOND try it installed CWM recovery.
Thanks.
I have cwm 6.0.3.6 installed. CWM website says 2.0.5.2 (or something close to that) is only available recovery.

You don't need to flash anything.
ok i set up ADB
Rooted the phone with Superboot
oem unlocked
flashed recovery-ra-nexus-v2.2.1
here's the problem
Next step i want to do is to install a custom rom.
So I try to do the following
"1. Download the ROM you want from our Nexus One ROMs section.
2. Turn off the phone.
3. Turn it back on by holding down Volume Down and Power until the bootloader screen comes up. Let it finish searching then select Recovery by using the volume buttons and click power to select.
4. Once the recovery screen comes up, select Nandroid Backup (to save a backup just in case, optional)
5. Then select Mass Storage On and plug your phone into the computer.
6. Copy the ROM .zip file to your phone’s SD card then unplug the phone.
7. Click USB MS Toggle."
Problem is i don't see nandorid backup, nor do I know where USB MS Toggle is located.
Rom is on my SdCard.
can i just flash Clockwork? :/
go for 4EXT. its the best out there nw.

4ext is nice I use it now. did use amon_ra for 2 years no issues
don't like clockwork
if you go 4ext bu's are in clockwork backup folder
usb toggle should be on first ra screen under reboot now
nandroids or "backups" are under "backup/restore", however you should see nandroid folder on sdcard
if you just flashed a new recovery for first time did you remove this file to allow your recovery to stick--/system/etc/install-recovery.sh may be no issue for you at this point.
I'll try these out...
NP hit our thanks buttons if we helped
I managed to get into recovery and flash a rom, BUT....after I successfully install the rom and reboot. I just get a black screen that leads to nothing :/
Oh and the led buttons light up when i press the power button
Propably you just didnt wipe data. The entry is called something like format data/factory reset.

Did you follow this on installing recovery and removing stock recovery image as mentioned above, you can also remove it with root explorer if it is on phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Nexus_One/Recovery_Images#Installing_a_Recovery_Image
try to pull/reinstall battery and see if it boots
did you wipe all 3x with amon ra before flashing, should do system too--
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28338566/Extreme-wipe.zip flashes from recovery
and I like sdformatter to format card then partition 1gb ext4 0swap
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28338566/SDFormatter 2.0.mht
if battery pull don't work, pwr off and press trackball and pwr at same time and see if you can get into bootoader. there you can get into recovery, rewipe all 3x and reflash rom
did you check md5 with a a file mgr like es file explorer
what a2sd are you using, I prefer Dark Tremor beta4, flash it after rom and reboot, reboot again then with terminal emulator run the DT scripts as mentioned on Op of thread
worse case go back into adb/fastboot window and reflash recovery as per above link, wipe, and reflash rom
you can even wipe phone and fastboot rom thru command window by extracting the roms system and boot images and placing on sd card where you had ra recovery and fastbooting them--little more complicated and no need to try yet
just some ideas for now--
britemb 1332
Ok this is exactly what I have done from the start
Oem unlock
flashed recovery-ra-nexus-v1.7.0.1 (because the later ones don't work) through superboot
Went into recovery
I had previously formatted the sdcard with sd formatter as you suggested
converted ext2 to ext3
converted ext3 to ext4
-Did NOT use Dark Tremor, cause idk how to use it (don't understand instructions)-
wiped with Extreme wipe
flashed rom - Bugless Beast
reboot
and still black screen-led buttons light up and turn on and off as i press the power button.
hope that gives you a better idea of what i have done.
still no luck
can you get back to your stock rom
that recovery is too old
if so try ext4 from market or a pre 3.0 clockwork
am not sure why amon 2.2.1 won't fastboot
i did not use superboot so not familiar with it
i set up sdk/adb/fastboot--oem unlocked--fastbbooted amon ra--then flashed a rom with superboot in it
did you remove stock recovery
are you fastbooting the recovery or going thru a terminal on phone
i cannot go into phone and into market (as phone won't load)
I did NOT remove stocke recovery (link to file is broken)
and I am fastbooting the recovery
not sure what's wrong
you do have sdk installed? and when you type adb devices and fastboot devices you do see phone ID--?
and your images you fastboot are in your fastboot.exe folder ie "tools" for
it must be all correct or couldn't have fastbooted old recovery--just asking
do you have a backup (nandroid) on sdcard and maybe even backup sdcard at this point--i put all by bu's on pc as soon as i bu to phone
not sure what the lights mean
can you boot in to fastboot screen as i mentioned above and see hboot you have--could be an hboot or boot partition issue
not sure i want to instruct you on that--you would have to get correct hboot to fastboot
here is amon 2.2.1 i used
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28338566/AmonRa 2.2.1.mht
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img
Could try
1) Boot into fastboot and plug into your computer.
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img
here is passimg link if you want to go back to stock and start over
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1577114
I've done the Passimg method and nothing, still a black screen with the led buttons going on and off as you press the power button.
don't know--sorry
maybe google your problem
pull battery and leave out 15 minutes
try another battery
do you get vibrations when the screen goes off and any orange light
could be hardware

I've done the Passimg method and nothing, still a black screen with the led buttons going on and off as you press the power button.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
make very sure that you name the file PASSIMG.zip and not PASSIMG.zip.zip cos windows hadles the files such way.
after that reboot into bootloader (power+trackball) and then choose Bootloader by pressing power button. nw your phone should detect the passimg.zip and should be reverted back to stock.

hi,
i got the same problem and i did a research and found a way to fix it and it worked!
what you must do is:
1.flash the sbf file
2.remove the sdcard from the phone and insert it in to the PC
3.copy the update.zip and the openrecovery to the root of the sdcard
4.put the sdcard in the phone
5.hold (on the keyboard) x and the power button
6.select the update.zip and it should work
the problem is that when you flash the sbf it corrupt the update.zip (don't ask me why)
and i am not sure if it will work if you copied the update.zip and the open recovery via the usb
if i helped you please press the thanks button ^.^
As bad x boy already said, you need to flash the vulnerable recovery file ( vulnerable_recovery_only_RAMDLD90_78.sbf ) with RSD, then copy on the root of your SD card the recovery files ( update.zip and OpenRecovery folder - I chose Open Recovery 3.3). With the phone turned off, press the camera button while pressing the ON/OFF button. When you see the triangle, press the volume up key, then the camera button and from that menu, choose apply update from sd card or something like that. It should work just fine from now on. Good luck!
