I need a push in the right direction, I just flashed Honeycomb via clockwork, and now want to go back to rooted stock.
I can not get into recovery, can not do anything in command line(no adb)
what do I need to do, got the driver pack off here but everytime I uninstall drivers windows does not give me a chance to choose where I get my drivers
Also honeycomb is not rooted with the install
go read the rootpack thread.
install bootable recovery on sd along with your rom of choice (or a backup will work).
boot into recovery via sd and flash rom or backup from there.

Hi alll,
I have a rooted (i think) HTC Legend. I have completed step 1 of the root but had errors with step 2. Now I want to install clockwork rom manager so I can install azure.
But when i download azure using the rom manager app (and after flashing clockwork) it asks me to press OK for a reboot but nothing happens. I have also checked the recovery that I have and it is the one installed as part of the root.
I have tried downgrading the recovery to an older clockwork version, which works and then I installed the latest clockwork again, but i still have the recovery from the step 1 root.
How do i get clockwork recovery installed?
You mentioned errors with step 2.
Did you stick a freshly formatted SD into phone instead of goldcard??

did you downgrade before rooting?
Check your root.
Install a terminal emulator from the Market, if you don't already have one.
Fire it up, type su. If you don't get an error about permissions, then you should have root.
E.E.
chances are, if it did not reboot your system, your not rooted...
Hi all,
Seems if I am having nearly the same problem. The Clockwork Recovery is always freezing when I try to install. So I downloaded the Terminal Emulator from the Market, but when I try to run: "Applikation Terminal Emu (Process com.android.term) has been closed unexpected. Please try again."
SuperUser Permission Reuest also doesn't work, there is happening just nothing when I try to start. Btw thats the same headline what I am having when freezing while installing clockwork recovery.
What went wrong while rooting? Can someone help please
I had some Problems with step2 btw .. because my Legend is the only hardware to get access to the SD Card. So i restarted the phone between step1 and step2, used it as harddrive just to format the SD Card agaein. The I jumped back and started and finished step2 just fine (thats what I thought )
i've been through the developers thread for three days, and don't understand all the lingo, if i could please get step by step or links please. i appreciate all the work you developers have done with the new rom and kernal tweaks. really interested!! can you please help..thanks, donations coming for all
First, get openzio's clockworkmod recovery if you are a cricket user, then setup the Android SDK, then use fastboot to boot our recovery, BACKUP YOUR CURRENT ROM, after the backup is complete, choose install zip from SD, choose openzio rom 2.1 by Spz0 and once complete reboot. Dial *228 and enjoy.

Fastboot is in the rom. All he has to do is open it and copy it to where ever and then navigate there in Command Prompt. I am assuming you are on a Windows 7 machine? You'll also need like Mattix said, a copy of the recovery, which also means you need a copy of 7zip or something like that to unpack the rar and get the img out. This is a want vs know how thing.

I think you got ur roms/zips mixed up m8.
My Fastboot recovery pack is all you need to use clockworkmod recovery.
Use Clockworkmod Recovery to back up your current rom
Download OpenZio v2.1 ROM, dump it to your SDcard, boot into clockworkmod recovery and "install zip from SDcard"
Running 2.3.3, build number is CL 49208, using a Mac. Unlocked bootloader with fastboot. Used recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1. Put the su-2.3.6.1 on my phone. Finally got it to reboot in recovery. Installed CM7.0.3. Oh, and I bought this phone in China (it's legit). Also, I used info from lots of sources before I finally found a recent post here that suggested the su zip file. One of those things I put in my sdcard is Radio_20100203_2_Signed_PASSION.img. Don't know if that helps. I couldn't find a more updated radio image.
The plan is to install CM7 so I can run openvpn.
It stops and cycles through the CM7 load screen -- turquoise android on a skateboard with an arrow circling around. Goes no further.
What did I miss? How do I fix it? Thanks.
Sounds like your in a bootloop.
Did you flash GAPPS also?
Here's more infos for radio, ect...

Has happened to me before. I removed the SD card and scanned it for errors on my PC. Worked after that. HTH.

Uhh...I can't put a microsd card in my computer -- I don't think.
Would you recommend updating the radio image? I'm thinking the 5.12.00.08, since my phone is in fact Korean. Do I still need the GAPPS image? Can I flash that image into my phone, or do I need to put it on the root of the sdcard?

They make an adapter for micro sd card t ofit a USB port.
You can try new radio but If it's bootlooping I think your problem is elsewhere.
Did you check MD5SUM of the ROM before flashing?
Fortunately, my neighbor has a plethora of microsd adapters.
I did not check the sum. I read a few suggestions about doing that, but I couldn't figure out how, so I just trusted that what I had was fine. Lesson learned.
Let me get this straight: I need to put the GAPPS image on the sdcard AND flash the GAPPS image from fastboot? If I do update the radio image, do I need to reinstall CM7?
Put cm7 rom and gapps on sd card,
boot into recovery and flash rom then gapps, reboot.
Its highly recommends you do radio via fastboot.
To check md5sum, you can use one of the many free app from market.
Ok, ran checksum in fastboot. Not really sure what I'm looking for, so I'll just post what happened. In every case except gapps and su, the numbers returned were the same on the sdcard as in the tools file on my mac. Gapps and su are only on the sdcard.
For the CM7 zip, it returned: MD5(pathtofile)= 98d06d6a58c7de87d40269bfe0ae0e7b
For the RA img: 3def709ab1c9e051a92a1c8b1504a36a
For the Radio img: 310d85c4998163818f7dcdef730c2a12
For the gapps zip: 2f6a93654d1cfe191ff709b360ad60fc
For the su zip: b23147cb55eba3ae32a996a913fa54ea
I'm too new to the forum to post the link where I'm getting my instructions.
The CM7 version is update-cm-7.0.3-N1-signed, the RA is recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1, the radio img is Radio_20100203_2_Signed_PASSION (the updated radio link you posted had removed the radio img because of some sort of violation), and gapps zip is gapps-passion-ERE36B-2-signed.
Still having the bootloop problem. I tried to find the most updated versions of everything I could. Is there a compatibility issue somewhere?
Another thought:
Do I need to flash the su zip from my sdcard in recovery? I don't know what that will do, so I haven't tried it yet.
There are a couple of files that Amon-RA suggests I delete in order to prevent calling the stock recovery:
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
Any idea how I can check for and delete these using fastboot via mac terminal?
You can't delete them from fastboot. Use fastboot to boot off the new recovery and delete them in there through adb.
Code:
fastboot boot recovery "c:\location\to\recovery.img"
Can you be more specific? I use fastboot to flash the recovery image, and when I'm in recovery on the phone, I use adb from my computer? Or I can access a command line in the phone?
Well, you use fastboot to flash the recovery. Then you use the command I posted below so you can boot directly into that recovery. Once in there, you use adb on the computer to go into the phone, mount the system partition (which can be done under the mounts and storage menu in recovery) and then find those files and remove them.
But you really only need to delete those files if you want to stay running stock Android. If you have a custom recovery on the phone, that is all you need to install CM, and CM doesn't contain the files that revert the recovery back to stock.
Just got it to work. It was, in fact, a compatibility issue. The gapps zip was for a different version. I found a different zip (for Gingerbread) at: http://goo-inside.me/gapps. If you have Gingerbread, choose a zip with gb in the name.
i used this guide:
http://yagyagaire.blogspot.co.il/2011/08/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-popmini.html#.UVQo5Bcqzj4
but i read in the comments that i can use the zip only with stock recovery.. and i have CWM recovery.
i tried to get back to stock recovery, but failed.
anyway to root with CWM?
thanks
Here's another way to root your phone. First,download the latest version of superuser in a flashable zip(google 'superuser downloads'). Then place the zip in your phone's sd card. Go to cwm recovery and select 'install zip from sd card'. Before this you might want to back up your rom,just in case something goes wrong. After that go to choose zip from external sd card and find the zip. Install the zip and when installation finished reboot. Your phone will be rooted after doing this.
try to go to galaxy mini themes n apps thread,and search best roots apps,thread by the alchemist...
#sorry for my bad english

Hello,
I was trying to install cm 10.2 on my htc one and I wiped by mistake everything even the system and now I dont have anything on my phone. Can you please tell me a way to copy again cm 10.2 or another rom on the SD card to install it, because now the phone is in recovery and the computer doesn't read the SD card.
Thank you
Help.
I solved with CWM v6.0.3.2 and using ADB sideload. you can use [TOOL] HTC One (M7) All-In-One Toolkit V3.1. You go into recovery select install zip from sideload. Then with the toolkit, select ADB sideload to Rom, and ready, start counting, when you reach 100% start the installation of your rom, rom certainly must have ARHD.Zip short name. Excuse my English, I hope you work.:good:
