Unable to install 2.2.1 when prompted by Nexus One - please help

Hello,
I have a Nexus One with Froyo FRG33 installed. Previously, I had installed cyanogen 6.0 with clockworks recovery.
The mobile keeps prompting me to install the latest update. When I click yes, it reboots into clockwork recovery, where I can't work out what to do next.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks.

If you want to install the OTA update, you need the stock recovery (must be somewhere in the forums), if you have Cyanogen i dont recommend doing this... there was a way to stop the messages but don't remember how
WRONG PLACE TO PU A QUESTION btw

And be warned, you lose root with this patch.

Hello,
Thanks for the response. I already had installed stock fr91 which was upgraded to frg33. That did not get rid of clockwork recovery.
I don't care about root so not really concerned about that. Tux.

[Q] I have a nexus one rooted and i need help

I have a rooted nexus one with cynogen mod 6.0 on it and i went to rom manager and 6.1 is available , I want to know if i can download it or what do i have to do to get it ? Its running 2.2 not 2.2.1 id like that to .. Yes im new to this but want to learn .. Please help..

Download it, include gapps, backup rom, let it run. That's it.

Yes download it either via rom manager or via cyanogen forum. Also download gapps if you don't have google apps and google account linked to the phone yet. Do a nand back up.install the new rom via rom manager or via the custom recovery. Since you're running cm6 I'd guess your having clock work mod recovery. but either way it'll work. To install the gapps, boot into recovery, install zip from sd card, find the package, install.complete.

[Q] ROM Manager on HTC Magic?

Hi guys.
I’m very sorry if this problem have been asked before in this forums, but I’ve searched, and cannot find a solution for my problem. So here goes.
I have a HTC Magic 32A (OS: Android 1.5 Cupcake + HTC Sense) and I’ve successfully rooted it with the SuperOneClick App following this guide from theunlockr website (how-to-root-your-android-phone-superoneclick-method). I assume I was successful because when I open busy box it says that my phone is rooted.
So my problem starts when I’m trying to follow the second guide on how to load a custom rom. (how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-your-android-phone-after-any-one-click-root-methods/)
They say I must download ROM Manager from the Market, but when I try, it says “installation error”. The current version is 3.xx and I’ve also tried the 1.8.4.1 version but then it says “ROM Manager could not be installed on this phone”
So my question is what can I do to get ROM Manager on my Magic?
Thanks for you time!

ROM Manager is probably recommended to you because it will allow you to overwrite your stock recovery with ClockworkMod recovery. So if it's not working, get the ClockworkMod zip from a forum, rename to update.zip and place in the root of your SD, reboot to recovery, choose (re)Install Packages and it should open the new recovery. Sometimes it takes 2 goes to get it working.
Then download a ROM, stick it on your SD and use ClockworkMod recovery to install. Read more forums first though, so you know what you're doing.
Sorry if it's different for 32A but that would definitely work for 32B.

[Q] Anyone have a backup of an original HTC sense Froyo ROM?

Long story short, I was trying to install Cyanogenmod onto my phone and I ended up bricking it (Tried reinstalling both the official release of Cyanogen and Nightly. I get pass installation from Clockwork Recovery, but once I reboot, my phone just keeps on looping at the loading screen), and none of my backups made from ROM Manager work because everytime I try to use one, it gives me an error that it cannot access /system. Pretty much all I'm asking for is if anyone has an original HTC Sense Froyo backup ROM they can upload and send to me? If you have Dropbox and want to do it via that, I'm fine with that too.
Thanks in advance, the only other way I see out of my situation right now is buying another phone so I would rather not have to do that

If you go to the shipped rom sticky in the development section they have all the orignal froyo roms.

[Q] rommanager /universal androot v1.6.2 beta 5

Hi guys! so i have a htc t-mobile g1 firmware version 1.6 build number dmd
64. I have installed rom manager and universal androot v1.6.2 beta 5. I rooted phone and flashed clockwork mod recovery. I would like to install a rom.
where do i go from here? Do I have to still downgrade the sofware or can I go right from 1.6 dmd 64 to a rom. the option download a rom does not work,I get message the requested item cannot be found. what are my options? can someone please help me! i am total noob and this is my only phone for now don't wanna screw it up. sorry for long post just trying to be accurate.....thanks.

is the recovery installed?
you went the fast way but it still usually works
power on the phone holding the home button
if your in clockwork recovery then your ok, just flash a rom
the newest roms require more work from you to get them though
see here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139

yes, it does go into clockwork recovery. i had flashed clockworkmod recovery and backed up current rom in rom manager. i was worried i had to downgrade to rc29 or something like that. do i still have to install radio and danger sp? thank for the help and replying

Most roms you want will require you to

so no downgrade? ill install radio and danger spl and try cyanogen6 android 2.2. ill follow the cyanogenmod wiki and try it. well see how it goes......

I wouldn't recomend cm6 with only the danger spl, you be very slow if it boots at all. Try cm5. If you want more you'll need to follow the 2708+ update to get the extra ram hack for roms past 2.1

I will try cm5 then thanks....I'll post any issues i have..

i was just on cyanogenmod wiki trying to install cm5 and it says clockworkmod is not recomended or safe.it says to please upgrade to aman ra. so confused now

Its only not recommended because amonra is better for the dream, clockwork will work just fine. Also know that cyanogen helped write the code that amonra is based off of. All that said I use amonra and not the biggest fan of clockwork

first of i like to say thank you for taking the time to help.this is what i downloaded so far,radio 2.22.23.02,danger spl,cm5. there is also something called mirror. what is it? and should i download that as well.after downloading this stuff it needs to be put on root of sd card then i should flash each one?

correct, here is the process
have all downloads on root of sd card
root (you did this)
install custom recovery (you id this)
flash radio via recovery (you can test and make sure by powering on w/camera)
flash spl via recovery (same test as radio)
flash rom via recovery
now you are ready to play with cm5!
the mirror is just in case the download link isnt working for you, same file
