Hey guys I'm very new to all this, I just used the z4root (Permenent root) method on my g1 dream and I would like to try a new rom on it but for some reason rom manager will not flash clockwork mod recovery or amon on it, it keeps saying that an error has occured when trying to access special privileges or something like that. does is matter if I'm using the free version or not? and do I need to put a custome hboot or bootloader on the phone as well? I've been reading for the last two days through these forums and I'm really lost and confused on how to do this. I understand that I must flash the rom from the custom recovery but can I get to the recovery through the hboot/bootloader once the custom recovery is flashed? Please help anyone. I appreciate it.
Never used z4 so cant really help there but i do know that you need a custom recovery to flash anything. So the question is can you get a recovery flashed. Can you boot into the os and log in? if so maybe you can get a terminal from the market and flash amonra from there with the instructions in his op. Not sure but worth a try.
z4root dont work proplerly try unviersal androot
Cool, hey johnson8 I really appreciate your help...so you're saying that the z4root has something to do with my phone not being able to download three recovery?

It might. I rooted mine the one click method a long time ago. Before these apps came out. Never liked rom manager either to be honest. I would try the androot the other Guy suggested really. See how it goes

Go to ezterry thread on 14 MB hack and fastboot flash new amonra recovery the radio and spl. Follow all instructions in there and try again. That will get u a good recovery new radio/spl and more ram comes with it. The new roms need that combo.

Ok sir I found the thread but I have no idea of where to get the radio/fastboot and all the other stuff you mentioned in order to flash them..as I said...I'm very new at this..btw..does this process require me to type any code..the thought of that scares me to death

This is the guide you need to set up adb on your computer.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719
If you have any questions i will try to help. After this is done you should be set up to run adb and fastboot commands from your pc.
Do everything in this guide except the recovery image. You will be doing that via ezterry's thread with amonra recovery. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Good luck
Ok will do..I appreciate all your help and have a safe trip..

No problem. I check frequently so if u have any questions I'll try to answer promptly. Also u will see shadowch31 in ezterry's thread among others. He can help guide as well. Just follow instructions exactly and don't freak out and pull your battery during any of the process even if it looks hung. Good luck

Hey, I am getting this really issues. I am running Liberty3 and since yesterday I have been receiving multiple non-stop text msg when someone sends me a text. It keeps going up to 15 duplicates until I reboot the phone. Any help. thanks
I am also having this really weird issue where people post things in development when they obviously don't belong.

Lol @ terror.
But this post would be better placed in the thread of the custom rom you're running. Then others that use that rom could help you out...just saying for future reference.

true that- wrong section.
ANYWAY I would flash back to complete stock using the rsdlite setup and start over. THen root it again, and install the new Safestrap instead of Bionic Bootstrap. THen install liberty again.
Sounds like you just have a bad flash.
Hello, I have installed a ron on my cappy and that rom didn't have galaxy s settings.. so I tried taking that app from another rom and putting it in system/apps and changed the permission to be the same as all the other apps permissions.. I rebooted after that and when I went to open the apo it keeps forcing close... I've tried clearing the data but still forcing close.. any help?

for AriesParts.apk I have the permissions:
Owner: Read Write
Group: Read
Others: Read
Are yours the same? Are you able to tap it to install through a root browser? I have that option using root explorer...
Also which ROM and kernel? We need more info if we are going to help you.

I went ahead and duplicated your setup and tried to install AriesParts.apk
I got the same result, no matter which way I installed it...
I'm sorry I couldn't be more help, possibly beock or someone else will know why or how it won't install/how to install...
A post in the ROM's thread probably wouldn't hurt either, since it came bundled with devil kernal

May be some library is missing or have wrong version. Ask ROM developer to include it - he will figure it out.
Hey guys, I'm new to the HTC One forums. I have rooted my international One, unlocked bootloader etc but I cannot flash anything through TWRP. I always get the error "cannot locate file "sdcard/download/the file name I'm trying to flash" can someone advise or tell me what I'm doing wrong??
Thanks in advance

I never been able to get it to work. Doesn't matter what kernel I used or what rom. I just can't get it to work. And I did put everything in kernel folder and I see them too but when I select them, there are no sound difference. So, if any of you guys got it to work. Please let know me. I tried asking for help from the official page but they seem to busy. Anyway, thanks.
