[Q] Nexus One Rom Problem - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everyone,
I want to install modaco desire rom my nexus one but my trackball is broken and not able to be repaired.How can i install rom without trackball. my english is bad sorry for that.
Best regards

I'm not an expert, but you can flash roms with the computer, you only need to conect the phne to the PC and start in fastboot, no use of the trackball. But i'm not sure how to flash roms with PC

Install a recovery that allows you to work with volume buttons and/or touch buttons instead of trackball. Try the latest CWM of 4EXT.

easy:
1) root your current rom (if not already rooted)
2) install rom manager from market or koush's webpage
3) download custom ROM to SD card using browser, USB, whatever
4) flash CWM recovery through rom manager
5) flash custom ROM through rom manager, rom manager will reboot to recovery and flash rom for you

thanks to all for help i install clockworkmod recovery v3.0.0.5 its open but i can't any processing just waiting. what can i do ?

Can't access recovery

Hi there, after rooting my phone with the "DoomLord's via Zergrush Exploit" , and after installing rom manager and flashing clockworkmod. I just can't access it.
If I load into the bootloader and click recovery, I get an image with a ! sign and a picture of an android, the same happens when I load recovery through rom manager. I have flashed the recovery twice now and my phone's just not having it. My phone works no problem, I just dont understand it
All I want to do is to make a backup and install a custom rom
Am I doing somthing wrong?
(Yes, my bootloader is locked BTW)
Very simple - you didn't flash the recovery properly, so you're getting to stock recovery.
Yup like Jack_R1 stated, the flash didn't stick or you didn't do it right.
Open Rom Manager, at the top it will tell you what recovery you have.
Does it show anything?
You could also try adb if you have that setup

You could even install it via terminal on your phone
Heck try this recovery, it's good

Try THIS. Install the application and it will install the best recovery
Rom manager tells me that i have clockworkmod 5.0.2.0
I'll try installing the recovery through terminal when i get back to my pc
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
EDIT: Having seen the other recovery you've stated, i'll try and install that.
Also, does it matter about which version of android i'm running? could that result of a bad install of the recovery through clockworkmod?
Its 2.3.4 stock rom if anyone's intrested
FINAL EDIT:
Thank you!
4EXT flashed perfectly, after using the app to reboot into the bootloader, it loaded up that. Many thanks!

[Q]How to install Amon_Ra recovery from CWM

So, I have a Dream with CWM recovery installed. I want to flash the Amon_ra one.
How do I do that without bricking?
Why I want Amon_ra? Because it has the terminal so I can change mtdpartmap content without using a PC.
Will the MTD partition mod work from clean Amon_ra recovery?
Rom Manager helps
Download the latest Rom manager from Market, it comes default with Clockwork mod and Amora 1.7 xx. with the Rom Manager version greater than 4, you can have 2 flash recoveries. Flash in Rom manager and boot to recovery hone + power button.
I read that the installation with the terminal is not recommended, instead, one should take fastboot. Which method is better Rom Manager or fastboot?
More secure is fastboot, but there are many people who feel uncomfortable to use it ...
Thanks.
After the installation of fastboot. Is it easy to use.

[Q] Two recoveries

Now i have tried installing cwm through rom manager and successfully installed it, now if I go into the recovery mode through rom manager it shows the new recovery but if I go into the recovery mode through the combo (volume up button home button and power button) it goes back into the old recovery ie dark core recovery, so that means I have two recoveries in my sgs? Please help, thanks in advance
uninstall rom manager i read somewhere it doesnt work verywell .
ok, then please tell that how can i update this dark core recovery to the latest cwm recovery???
Installing CWM-recovery with Rommanager doesn´t work with the SGS. You have to flashe another Kernel which already includes the Clockworkmodrecovery I don´t know which CWM-Version the DarkCore has but i tried different Kernels an they all had Version 3. If you are on a Gingerbread Stockrom you can try flashing the Semaphore Kernel(Root+a lot of different Improvements). This one I had for a long time. I think it included CWM V 3. Now I'm on Teamhacksungs ICS and I have V5
i am using darky's rom 10.2 and i have to shift to cm7.1 so thats why i have to update my recovery to cwm latest... didn't know how to flash kernel in my phone, coz my friend did all that, and i am a noob

(Q) How to flash ROM without using volume rocker

Hi, I rooted my S5570 and installed super-user and Rom Manager, my volume rockers are totally busted (broken off via my younger sister) and now I'm trying to flash a ROM using Rom manager, so i go to Install Rom From SD card I select Cm-10.10 tass, then reboot and install in recovery, the phone restarts and goes into Android System Recovery, now I have to scroll down to apply sdcard.update.zip but I can't due to not being able to use the rocker, what should I do any other way to install ROMS? Thanks (Sorry if I posted this into the wrong section I'm a n00b to android pretty much)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Obviously, you need to update your CWM recovery to a touch enabled version. I know there is a flashable zip around, but you would probably need a version flashable through odin.. just look around
Just google: cwm touch galaxy mini

[Q] help install cyanogenmod 10.1

Hi, have a rooted P990, did manage to install MIUI but wants Cyanogenmod. The only Cyanogenmod i can install is with the Progmaq-default-cm10 But i cant get into recovery after that install. If i use AIO and do a repartition and delete all then i can install CWM or TWR recovery, but i cant install ROM from any of them. TWR say that there isnt any OS on phone, CWM only goea back into recovery when reboot. Should i install the boot.img file on the phone, if yes, how do i do it?
What does CWM say after you installed a ROM, is there any error message?
Are you using old or new bootloader? Did you make sure to use a ROM that is suitable for your bootloader? You can use AIO to change the bootloader type.
