Ok major weirdness with this Rogers Dream.
My wife wanted Angry Birds so I tried to update her cm4.2.15.1 to cm6.1.0 with the 2708 kernel.
Titanium backed up
Followed ezterry's instructions at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9055790&postcount=1
Fastboot showed radio and hboot fine, so I wiped in fastboot and then flashed 6.1 in recovery
flashed ezterry's 20101106 kernel
Rebooted
Stayed on the rogers screen and adb logcat stayed on waiting for device.
Fastboot wiped and flashed the cm6 307 nightly, same thing.
Flashed old tmobile radio and dangerspl. Wiped and flashed again. same thing.
Flashed the nbh file listed in ezterry's post, boots.
Flashed tmobile radio, boots
Flashed dangerspl, boots
Flashed recovery and did a nandroid backup.
Flashed cm4.2.15, stuck at rogers screen, nothing from adb logcat.
booted back to recovery and restored backup. Stuck at rogers screen.
So I'm at a loss as to what to do. boots fine with the orange nbh, but as soon as I try to flash cm it gets stuck. Fastboot and recovery are all accesible and fully functional.
I really hope someone can help me on this as this is my wife's phone and she really wasn't happy that I borked it.
Edit:
Further discovery. It doesn't like to have boot.img flashed. everything else can be flashed and I'll get something from logcat, but if I flash boot.img, it's done.

I upgraded the radio, then downloaded the latest spl and ran from recovery. It verified the file loaded then said reboot.
I did that and it's stuck at formatting cache...in recovery.
I can get to the recovery but that's all.
whew! Back up, just reinstalled Cyan and it booted up. Thought I had bricked it.
***** FIXED in next post ******
Yes, I searched. No, obvious fixes didn't work.
Maybe someone can help me with this..
So, story:
- Had a Cyan 6.0 installed, decided to go back to frf91.
- Flashed a FULL FRF91 from clockwork recovery that came with Cyan.
- It flashed fine, phone rebooted. FRF91 loaded, seems to work fine.
- I rebooted into bootloader, wanted to flash IntersectRaven's Kernel from recovery, but it showed the android with exclamation mark in a triangle.
- I rebooted again, used fastboot to manually flash latest RA recovery. Flashed fine, but still triangle error.
- I downloaded Clockwork recovery, fastboot flashed it, still a triangle error.
How do I get my recovery back?
And on a related note - does it matter when I install kernel? Does it have to be before/after the ROM?
Thanks!
It seems that it's really picky about the recovery image filename.
Renamed the filename to "recovery.img" and reflashed again. It worked this time.
Ok, so the glass on my nexus one cracked, so I put in for a swap with HTC. it just came today, so I threw my sd card, sim, and battery in it and boot up. It gets stuck on the X. So I pull the battery, fastboot, unlock the bootloader, still won't boot. So I go through the steps to get back to the original shipping rom by flashing through fastboot and it boots. Ok. Now I root the phone, worked ok. So I go grab rom manager and flash clockwork recovery so I can install a rom, or one of my backups. Won't boot into recovery. I tried 3 different versions, nothing. Even tried flashing Amon Ra's, still nothing. It will boot normally into 2.1 at the moment, but it seems I have no way to get into recovery to flash even the stock 2.2 rom. Anyone have any ideas as to why fastboot works, and it boots normally, but won't boot into recovery?
I have a Nexus One phone which was on Vodafone 2.2. I changed it to 2.1 stock, 2.2 and then google updated it to 2.3.4. Next I unlocked the bootloader and flashed it with Amon Ra 2.2.1 cm passion recovery. Then I installed CM7 stable version, and flashed radio to 5.08.00.04. Everything was working fine until the phone started to reboot after 5 minutes of running any app. I pulled out the battery and now it's stuck on colored X. I can access the pwr/trackball but then if go to recovery it goes back to the X.
What should I do?
fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery.img
fastboot boot name-of-recovery.img

Click to collapse
What recovery image should I use?
I used Amon RA
And it still is stuck on X.
Anything else I could do?
Since you've tried Amon, why not give Clockwork a shot (2.5.1.4)?
I've also found that when you're struggling to get a custom recovery to stick, it sometimes helps to flash a stock recovery and then try again...
I rooted and flashed CM14 ROM for the H811 G4. had to use fastboot boot recovery command because flashing recovery didn't work. ROM loaded/worked totally fine, went to flash Super SU in recovery, phone flashed it, rebooted and then didnt boot up again. Stuck on the CM14 logo, tried flashing stock KDZ, kept getting errors like unable to connect. Any ideas on how to get this thing back up and running?
