[Q][H] 2.2.1 FRFG83D Help

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

Anyone help please

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.

You aren't the first that I've heard of this problem. What CWM are you using? The one I posted earlier today in the superguide (VER2) or the one that was in there before?

slap, there hasnt been another recovery released that i am aware of.
ver 2 of my CWM root was only to root via CWM, it doesnt replace recovery.

This is my first htc and Im not even sure how to flash anything using fastboot. Im so used to booting into cwm recovery and flashing from that. I know there isn't a recovery already built for the vivid but if someone could point me to the right thread on how to get into the recovery Im accustomed to Im sure I could figure the rest out

Ah you are correct, my apologies. Or maybe he's using the other CWM apparently floating around that doesn't have the battery indicator issues .
But my fault, I forgot what I wrote in my own thread! imitenotbecrazy, go to the thread that Pirateghost specified, read up on everything. Also, I have written down some things just in case you have that backup issue. Try this...
- IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH BACKING UP, pull the battery, boot back into recovery (power + vol down then select recovery) and try again. OR you may have to boot up and delete the old partial backups with a file explorer and try again. OR make sure your USB is no longer connected and try again.

Gotcha, disregard what I said. Have you tried what I mentioned earlier in this thread and in the superguide if you are having troubles backing up?

i got it it was cuz i still had the usb plugged in thanx for all your help

Rooted htc vivid help needed..

So i have a rooted htc vivid and today my battery died today and now my phone will not boot up at all. I can plug in the charger and the charge light comes on for a few seconds and then goes off.. It did this once last night and came back on after pulling the battery. Died today and cant get it back on...help me out please someone..

We followed Slapshot30's Superguide by doing the following:
HTC Dev Unlock - confirmed
Followed step 2 but got an error trying to update recovery
Used the Supertool Method and confirmed root with Titanium Backup
Tried Flashing a couple different versions of CWM to no avail.
Now we are at the current situation, unable to even boot into hboot by pulling battery and using power/vol down method.
At a standstill now
Edit: Oh and I helped him root this phone. I've rooted both my OG Evo and my E3D.
Edit #2 - Got it to boot into hboot and now the phone is booting up normally. Anyone know why it would do that? Also, does anyone know where I can find a download for CWM that I can flash through the bootloader? When we try to go to the recovery now it just goes the the screen with the red exclamation.

Are you able to flash the PH39IMG from the superguide? It's really easy, just put that file on the internal or external memory and boot into hboot and the phone will automatically update to the newest recovery.
If that doesn't work you cab flash the recovery using the other guide in the superguide, the one involving flashimagegui app.

When he puts the image on the sd card it doesn't update when booting into hboot...it goes through the steps but says no image.. I've done this a million times on my evo 3d but this phone is about to drive me crazy! We tried the other method but the app says his phone isn't compatible.

How about going to the thread for the new recovery (thecubed is the dev that made it). There is another method posted there, just a little more confusing. It involves a line or two of code in the command prompt.

why not send it back to stock first using the instructions in the superguide, and start from scratch?
Is that a possibility?

yeah I guess that can be a bit of a pain... Sometimes when I have an error and can't seem to figure it out I like to re-start at least a portion of what Im working on with a clean slate and make sure I did everything correctly, cleanly, etc.. but that's the programmer in me coming back out after years of unintentional suppression

ill try your link out but probally gonna need some help in the command prompt not really good with that stuff...i have been trying and i cant get it to work..

Just put the file on your desktop. Go to a file explorer and go to your desktop folder. Hold shift and right click, select open a command window here. Then just type in the line of code it says.

That's really odd... You might just have to try reverting to stock using the superguide and then rooting again.

[Q] Wild child recovery updated now wifi doesnt turn on

alright so my htc vivid has the wildchild recovery but is not rooted (i really dont know why but it says it isnt on root checker) and ever since my phone randomly updated its recovery my wifi won't turn on. Im thinking of going completely back to stock and see if it fixes it. Do you guys know any other way?

install superuser app and see if root works after. and you most likely need to flash a kernel through recovery to fix the wifi

Don't listen to him ^^ WildChild's site will give you the best help there.. but you did something wrong... on his site download the instructions and follow them everything works fine.

What? Obviously he is missing the files that flashes with the kernel if it's not working and yes if he followed the guide everything would have worked

can one of you send me a link to the WildChild site because as of right now my browser cannot find it at all. Also i already installed superuser but nothing has changed.

We cannot post the link just google wcx vivid

To the OP what are you trying to do? Please elaborate more. Did you flash a rom and only flashed the WCX recovery? Wildchild always provides the boot.img with his roms that need to be flashed via fastboot regardless if you are S-Off. Are you rooted? I would not flash a recovery until you can confirm root.

Help please.

Search cyanogen wiki root rogers HTC dream or look for directions within xda. Otherwise where you are now get your custom recovery and terminal app and put the recovery on root of SD, name it recovery.img
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
reboot recovery
You may need to install the flash image binary first

Thank you but should I change the radio and spl? I need help as to how can I is my G1 as they post e911

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. I would suggest to look this up or find the steps here in xda

no, dont skip as this will upgrade your spl and give you custom recovery, just pretend your phone isnt rooted and move on

Sigh the droid X download is broken, really sorry but what about the other method?

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?

What is everything it says on bootloader screen now?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

I ran into a problem now stupidly flashed CWR via rom manager and now I can't flash any other recovey.
on terminal it says flash_image not found while on fastboot
D:\Android>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4602 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.719s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image type not support)
finished. total time: 1.734s
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
