Will rage thee cage method work now that my n1 us unlocked?
Is there a noobs guide to rage the cage? Also I haven't done much research on the radio. Would I need to download something for it? I'm lost as hell. THNKS FRG83
It will still work, but if you're unlocked it's pointless. Flash a custom recovery and use that in install a rooted update.zip (ChainsDD)
The Wiki is a good start, too...

I flashed amon-ra's recovery and once I rebooted I got an android with a "!". The guide I used was on nexusonefourums. It said that if I got that symmbol that I was not rooted. I used modacos frf91 superboot to root. I was told it'd work. Apparently not.
O and now my wifi doesn't work at all. It just says error under settings-wireless.
Easiest way to see if you have root is to download a flashlight app from the market that requires root, and see if it works.
I always understood that the exclamation android guy was because you had stock recovery (I'm sure someone will correct me).

No need, you're spot on. Unless you remove a couple of files, the stock recovery is re-installed.
Thanks for that!
It's been so long since I've seen the lil' exclamation bugger, that I've forgot why he appears!

There is. "Root FRG33/83 without unlock" contains the thread with the explanation, and "SuperOneClick root app" is simple to use. Both in "Guides".
To the OP: Read the Wiki, for God's sake. The questions here come over and over again, and the interesting threads and questions all get lost in the maze of "how to root my phone". There's a guide for flashing recovery, read under "Recovery", and it says - "for unlocked bootloaders". That would save you the trouble of trying to root through rageagainstthecage method, because with unlocked bootloader you don't need any of that. There's also a guide, called "Flashing custom ROMs", at "Guides and Tutorials". That would cover everything you need.
N1 torch asked for super user permission and the full brightness is now working. It wouldnt work without root. So im rooted.... hate to ask it but.... now what? do amon-ra again?
Looking to add CyMod... and whats the deal on the updating my radio? do i need to? I hate being ignorant, but I gotta ask to learn.. Or I could brick my 500 dollar phone.
Pretty sure you're still on stock recovery, so yes, flash Amon Ra or Clockworkmod (if you're on an SLCD screen, only Amon 1.8 or 1.9 will work).
The wiki has instructions, or use Clockworkmod ROM Manager (but read the wiki either way).

Good heads up danger-rat. Downloads most recent radio and updated. I used rom manager and flashed most recent clockwork recovery. Now my next problem is getting cyanogenmod to download through Tom manager. It got 95% complete and said "rom download error. Google Apps: (outside link I can't post because of being a new member)" in my notifications.
Found a manual download site for gapps hdpi. Hopefully I can install it correctly

Hey All,
First I would like to start of by saying sorry if there is a thread on this and I have not found it from hours of searching for an answer.
So let me tell you the problem/point I am at with my Nexus One and need help.
So I rooted my phone a while back and for some time I was running the
CyanogenMod and then used Rom Manager to return to the stock image FRF91 from there updated to FRFG83D. I now want to get back into the rooted world and Amon_Ra's Recovery. Each time I try to enter into recovery mod I get the droid with a big '!'
I have tried to use SuperOneClick and it keep sitting on
Running rageagainstthecage...
ROOTED
Getting mount path...
tried 1-click does not work also.
Please help

You only need to ask once. Asking multiple times is not going to get anyone to help you any faster... All you'll do is annoy people.
The "droid with the big !" as you put it is the stock recovery. When you flash a stock ROM, it re-installs the stock recovery, unless you delete two files.
Anyway, you need to delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and /system/recovery-from-boot.p and then flash a custom recovery. You obviously need root to delete those two files.
See attachments for how to root and flash a custom recovery, without unlocking your bootloader.
Thanx and do not wish to be a pain, I thought I got my nexus to a point were I could not do a think.
Will try it out and let you know.
Thanks

I did this like 2 days ago too. Super one click root does work. I confirmed. You just only need to set up your driver and your adb right.

I spent literally 7 hours trying to root my phone. I tried Alpha revX, the new superoneclick and this other method. I cant seem to get it. Maybe because I am just really tired but this is getting really frustrating. I managed to get my phone to S-OFF with Alpha rev but nothing else. Anyone have any successful attemps .. please tell me I am dying over here

AlphaRevX only gives you S-OFF and I believe can now install ClockworkMod. To actually root your existing ROM, use need to flash rmk-superuser-v1.0.0.zip using ClockworkMod.

In this particular case, Flash = Use ClockworkMod to install a zip file that you have copied to your SD card.

Sorry, I thought the current version of the AlphaRevX software allowed you to install ClockworkMod, too. If you didn't install ClockworkMod during the AlphaRevX S-OFF process, then yes you need to install ClockworkMod Recovery in order to install the rmk-superuser zip file.
Yeah I can't believe I pressed.no when it asked me to download it. Would have saved me a lot of trouble .. now i am downloading the Android ask and avd manager to door my phone.

I'm not sure it will let you get that far. AlphaRevX will detect that you are already S-OFF and exit the program from what I understand.
Why on earth is it so difficult to download recovery and root the phone. Ive been at this for another 3 hours and got nowhere. I am not a total noob but I am following Alphas instructions and it is saying that my recovery image isnt there when I boot in fastboot mode. Arrrghhhh!

well there are many better custom roms then the stock 1.5 or 1.6 but choice is yours of corse
before you switch do you want to still be rooted? this will make a difference in what you do to go back.
also if you want to relock your bootloader as I am assuming you are unlocked and probably s_off or fake s_on
boot into hboot and write down all that is there (power on holding camera)
now boot into recovery and write what you see (either choose reboot recovery from hboot or power on holding home)

well I suggest reading up a bit about how android works before you begin, if you make mistakes there is a chance you can brick your phone. start by reading about the g1 in the xda wiki here (you'll find it easy) next google cyanogen wiki and look for the dream (g1) you will see some explanations of how to root etc. although you are not going to berform these steps I suggest you at least have a understanding of the process. also I would suggest looking for a glossary of terminalogy so you won't get confused when reading through this.
on a phone right now so you will have to google and search this on your own.
one of the main things I need to know about your phone is the radio and spl you are on (will matter how to change roms)
to check the simplest way is to turn off phone, then hold the camera button while powering on - this will bring you to your bootloader (also called hboot and spl - secondary program loader)
on this screen there will be information about your firmware, just simply write all of this down and post it here... after that we can keep going

OK, still I'm familiar with the process of rooting and installing roms, I own a galaxy phone and I use clockwork mod to apply my roms that way, and I install rooted kernels so my root is supplied with the rom. I am familiar with the terminology and such. But with an old phone such as the G1, is this bootloader the only way to install a new rom? Or is there a way to get RomManager working? Such as an older version of the free version apk?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
you can use rom manager but I advise against it, with any phone really. its ok but you can run into problems and if you aren't familiar with the basics you can easily get stuck and not know what to do next, so with any phone my opinion on rom manager is stay away but it can work fine.
no, just like with your smamsung all phones have a bootloader of sorts and this kinda like bios in windows, think of it as the firmware that boots the os.
these are some reasons why I think you should learn some terminology and read up so I (or others) don't have to write up lengthy explanations of this stuff)
in the bootloader there will be information on what firmware is on your phone, you won't be flashing roms in here just need the info. for the most part you will be using your recovery to flash roms
so if you could write that information down it will be easier to know what to flash otherwise I will have to guess

But this doesn't make that much sense, with my other Android phones, I just flash clockwork mod with stock recovery and then I flash a rom in, why does firmware matter?? Its a g1 so wouldn't I just be able to go in with stock recovery and flash the stock as an update.zip? Why is this information you need so nessacary?? If its and android phone, can I just install clockwork mod through stock recovery and go from there??

Ill provide the baseband number if you need it, i didnt know if Im supposed to give that out. BTW, here are some things i found suspicious with this phone, im providing some pictures to show you this isnt stock as well.
yeah I think it may be stock but branded to so chinese carrier, it doesn't appear to be rooted.
my guess, being you from us, you don't want to have a phone with an os ment for china, I couldn't tell you if its slower than stocked branded for tmobile but my guess is you won't have much of a speed/stabillity upgrade if you change to the tmo stock.
at this point you will need to downgrade and root your phone, you may need to make a goldcard being it is branded to china or whereever but I doubt it.
just follow this guide
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Dream:_Rooting
tell me when you have sucessfully gotten amonra as a recovery, at this point ill help further (to check what recovery you have hold home while powering on)

The phone does say T-Mobile on it. The only Chinese thing physically about it is the battery. Everything else looks just like the US version.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
yeh well that is where they messed up in the rom, besides if you look at you build number rc83 is not tmobil
either way look @ the splash screen, that is not stock htc or stock tmobil - right now it is very very unlikely you are rooted, and that is why rom manager won't work - if you want to root your phone and if you want a different os then follow the guide, otherwise complain to who you bought it from that you didn't get a us branded phone

well if it has root your next step would be to verify what recovery you have, if it is stock change it to amonra (much better then cw on these phones)
easiest way to change is open terminal emulator and type
su
flash_image recovery/sdcard/recovery.img
of course you will have to have the .img on the root of your sd card and named recovery.img
after that you will have to upgrade your radio and spl to flash the roms you want

Ok so i just need to go into recovery mode and see which recovery im in, then if its stock, then put the amonra recovery on my sd card, change the name to update.zip, and use the terminal to flash it? Then just do the radio upgrade through amonra recovery? And then find the stock rom i want and flash it through amonra?
You will want to name it recovery.img
Yes you will then flash an updated radio in recovery, then flash an upgraded SPL in recovery. Know that flashing the wrong radio or wrong SPL can brick your phone, flash the radio provided in the cyanogen wiki, then the danger SPL, make sure to check the md5sum and that the radio was flashed first, do not rename the .zips keep them as they are (in other words don't call them update.zip)
After this then reboot to recovery, wipe all and flash your ROM of choice, although I wouldn't recommend stock as there are far faster ones with many more features

Part of the rooting process will do this and you will want in then end to get the .13d SPL and 2708 radio but you need to get to compatible radio and SPL first. I've only rooted one rogers dream so off the top off my head I can't tell you all the proper steps, not at a computer to link you easy either. I don't believe you need to worry much about the post 911 patch anymore but when I rooted this I used the steps laid out in the cyanogen wiki and it all worked fine for me.

ok sop get your custom recovery from HERE make sure you get one with an "R"
now flash the 1.33.2005 bootloader, found a working link HERE
Once all is complete and confirmed good the follow THESE INSTRUCTIONS to fully update phone and allow for newest roms
The last section requires you to learn fastboot, there are ways not to, but your going to have to try first
Hey thanks alot I finally did it, hboot was updated but the radio didn't I flashed the one in ezterry's thread multiple times through recovery but it just didn't update still I flashed ezgingerbread so now its working.
bdw if its not to much trouble do you have a froyo rom that is similar to ezgingerbread? Which can run on any radio or hboot?

I got the hang of fastboot thanks to you but this problem is wrecking my nerves.
There is an option in ROM manager to flash another recovery, never use ROM manager so can't attest to how well it works, my guess is you have a bad image your trying to download, personally I like amonra the best for the g1, I believe the version is like 1.7 and if you go to amonras thread you will get download link and md5sum to check
