[Q] flashing rom problems

Hi, I have a uk vodafone nexus one with stock 2.2.1 frg83d. I have been trying to update to stock gingerbread via frg83g without any luck. I used super one click to root my phone and have unlocked the bootloader. The problem is every time I try to flash a different rom frg83g, gingerbread or cm 6.1.1, it says that the update was ok and goes to the reboot screen, but when I reboot it just hangs at the boot animation screen. Am I missing something? any help much appreciated.

On just about any custom ROM page it clearly says:
WIPE EVERYTHING before installing.

[Q] rooting, recovery, custom ROM

Hi out there,
A friend of mine has got a milestone (gsm) and problems with flashing recovery and custom rom.
he says he has got root, but when he tries to flash recovery it says "no root rights" (via root console with su). moreover, his recovery is a .zip and not a .img which i was used to (am a htc hero owner). through not having custom recovery, he cant install custom roms, seems like no root on boot.
anyone can help? as the procedure on htc hero seems to be completely different i cant help him, will give him this link so he can see
thank you,
SummonerOfDeath

Can't install custom rom after send to technical service

Hi... i'm from spain and i have several problems with the english,... so sorry.
I have an "orange spain" milestone since 1'5 years. Two months ago, i had a problem with the screen. I sent the phone to technical service. 15 days later I received the phone. They say my phone is not repairable, and send me a refurbished one.
When I tried to enter the bootloader, the phone froze. I sent it back for repair, not being able to access the bootloader.
Two weeks later I received the phone, and I enter the bootloader. Start the installation of a custom rom. The installation seems correct, but when I restart the milestone, it starts a loop.
In short, ... I can not install custom rom after sending my phone to qualified service personnel.
Currently, I have installed one of G.O.T. sbf
Any solution?
Sorry for my bad English

Tell us the bootloader version.

Version 90.78... thanks

Well... i'm trying to install Ho!No! using a nandroid backup.
If i install it, without wipes, the phone reboot correctly, but, when i entry in settings menu, the phone freezes and reboot. In the reboot, is freezes in the motorola "M".
If i restore the backup, and apply all the wipes, it not start, rebooting again and again in the "M"...
What can i do?

Did you flash the vulnerable recovery?

GOT 2.2 uses 2.1 kernel, you have to install leaked or any official 2.2 stock rom sbf in order to install any recent custom ROM.

If i install any official 2.2 sbf, i can't enter to the open recovery to install the custom rom.
What leaked rom can use?

After you installed an official 2.2 sbf you have to apply the vulnerable recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=698059

[Q] Flashing the proper clockworkmod

Greetings Everyone,
I am really stuck with this phone that I am working on right now. I wanted to simply flash a new rom to this phone and I started by rooting the phone which was successful. Once I had done that I downloaded Rom Manager and flashed the recovery mod to the phone. However, It seems that the recovery mod that I had chosen for the P990 was incorrect. As a result when I try to flash any rom or even revert back to my back ups from CWM I simply get the Boot Loop. I am almost convinced that the problem lays with the CWM version that is installed. Therefore, My question is how do I flash a different CWM and I need a step by step help with this since I dont know very much about this process.
All your help is greatly appreciated.

[Q] Went back to stock, now having trouble getting out

Dear friends,
Little background. I was on CM10 stable, but decided to I update to CM10.1 M1, After the update, had no market, however, so I tried to downgrade to CM10 stable and it bricked. So .. back to stock it is! Now I am having trouble getting out of stock. I am not new to flashing, but I never had this kind of a persistent problem.
The short summary of what I get no matter what I try is: Every kernel that is not the stock Eclair kernel has boot-animation messed up (random lines of color on screen), and I cannot enter recovery - I sometimes can boot sometimes cannot.
Steps I have taken
I went back to stock Eclair rom + non-root kernel (LINK).
I rooted (LINK)
But when I tried to update kernel to allow CWM, it bricked my phone. So back to stock, again!
I tried this a few times. Now, the latest attempt, I tried the stock 2.3.5 rom + rooted, CWM kernel (LINK... I get the phone running, but I cannot get into recovery, and no utility that has "reboot to recovery" has managed to get me into recovery.
The plea
All I want is CWM, so I can install what I want. Without it, I am stuck with Odin one-click and Odin flashable packages (Heimdall does not want to work right for me - the drivers are messed up - and trying to fix those brkeas my Odin drivers).
I have no data on the phone at the moment, I can reinstall everything if need be .. but I am out of ideas besides keep trying different roms and kernels until something gives me CWM and I am free again.
I have AT&T GB bootloaders.
thanks for any help, I will try to provide any additional info I can.

Messed up screen = wrong bootloaders. Flash Odin KK4 with bootloaders
From there, follow this link.
Finally, you can get back up on CM10.1 - Btw, you had no market cause you didn't flash their Gapps.

UPDATE .. ugh that took a while:
1) From the master list LINK, wet back to 2.1, I897UCJF6
2) From the same thread installed I897UCKF1 with bootloaders
3) rooted: LINK (I know -not XDA)
4) removed the 3e recovery lock (LINK) - this did not seem to work, but I did do it.
5) installed Speedmod kernel from here LINK - this did not boot, but it did install CWM
6) installed CM10.0 Stable from SD cadr - twice
7) installed gapps
8) just did my first boot to CM10.
This is both a record for myself for later, and for anyone else that may find this useful.
