When there is one available it will be posted in the android development forum.
but if you are impatient... try Blandroid 2.3.4... it's AOSP-based, rooted and 99% stock... http://blandroid.org/downloads
Geo411m usually posts a nice near stock custom ROM based on each release. If you watch the development forum for this username I bet you'll see one pop-up soon after the N1 specific code is officially available. I've used them before with good results and there is a theme post with nice themes made specifically for Geo's ROMs.
I'm using a rooted version of FRG83G (2.2.2) but I can't do the ota update because of my rooted version.
Is there a way to upgrade my OS ? (my boot loader is unlocked)

Backup ask your data with Titanium.
Passimg back to stock, and update to 2.3.4.
fastboot flash recovery.
Use recovery to install ChainsDD's su.
Restore your Titanium backup...
Blandroid is very good. It contains even my local language, so it's even better than stock from Google. Can be installed as stock replacement.
Flash FR91, Go into HBOOT and flash the stock recovery, start up, force checkin and let it update ( you only have 1 chance at this if you screw up you'd have to do the whole thing again ).
Download SU.zip and flash from recovery.
There you go you have 2.3.4 stock with root.

Install stock recovery from HBOOT?

Yeah? I'm not sure if that's the way you say it but hboot flash recovery recovery.img ?
Or is it called bootloader...
That would be fastboot, not hboot.
Why would you want a stock recovery, and how do you plan on flashing the su.zip with a stock recovery?
My bad, I keep on getting confused with G1.
If you do not have stock recovery, it will not flash the OTA update from 2.2 to 2.3.3 then 2.3.4. After the sequence is done you can go back into fastboot and flash a custom recovery. After that you can flash SU.zip
You can flash an update from any recovery, just turn the signature verification off...
Do-it-yourself way....
1. Get 2.3.4 system dump from here, and Android Kitchen here.(If your OS is Windows, you will need to install modified Cygwin to use it)
2. Cook the system dump files with Android Kitchen.
3. ?
4. Now you have rooted 'stock' 2.3.4 package that can be flashed on custom recovery!

But this is an ota update. Mine did not flash. It went back into recovery after downloading the ota update but it will not flash.
You can flash OTAs through any recovery, just turn the signature verification off. I've done it many times, including the update 2.3.4...

Then I must have done something wrong then. All mine did was boot back into recovery and stay there without flashing anything. I still made it work though.

you cant, you would need to download the original firmware to flash it to stock, you might try one of the backup tool in the market but a full nandroid backup you cant do unless rooted

Ok I have a root now ,
when I rebooted my note to recovery I get this : Android system recovery <3e>
It looks like CWM but has no backup and restore options and thats why Iam confused
How I can get the CWM I used to use with my HTC Sensation
It looks like you only did root when what you wanted was root + CWM.
Go back to Dr.Ketan's guide and look at the procedure below this line that is in the first post:
-----------------------------------------Forget all Above and follow simple Step below------------------------------
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My summary of your best options:
Follow from Step 2 and use the already-rooted.bat file
OR
The better (in my opinion) way:
Purchase Mobile Odin Pro(MOP) from the market and go get the CF Root Kernel that matches your firmware to get CWM. Just put the Kernel on your sdcard and run MOP, make sure EverRoot and all injections are checked, select file, find kernel, flash. Done.
MOP has also enabled us to retain root when flashing stock firmware updates by using the EverRoot and injections options, however you will lose most CWM functions when this is done. To regain CWM, you simply follow the same steps as above to update to a matching CF Root Kernel.
Have fun, and be sure to hit the thanks button for Ketan and Chainfire!
Dear beestee,
So: I have Kernel KK2 - Download This - and Extract
then : I am Already Rooted - Execute "already-rooted.bat" and follow the instructions
is there any side effects ? like format ot can not Upgrade via OTA or else?
Is there any thing need to be packed up first? like the original kernel if this method will change it
Nothin side effect, you can upgrade over OTA, BUT If you update over OTA/kies, you will lose Root.
So you have to use CWM or Mobile odin to update newer ROM

Ok I done it and it working, but I found that CWM is a program now you can access from phone not like in HTC where you must inter bootloader and MAGLDR to inter CWM
I can make the backup and restore from inside the program - right?
You can get it with entering recovery too, you have to press Home + Vol UP + Power to enter in recovery mode.
you can simply do it with inside app - restart in recovery
when you give command to backup, it will restart and auto enter in recovery mode and finish it

I rooted my phone and installed CWM.
However rooting and installing roms are not for me. So I want to go back to my warranty.
How can I unroot and remove CWM and go back to my warranty, I still have 21 months of warranty period and I dont want to burn it
I found how to unroot, installing unroot file and setuping it like rooting but how to remove CWM.
Thx a lot
Taha
if you have a stock rom then flash it with Odin
else for unrooting first remove superuser app then busybox and sqlite3 then su and you will be unrooted
for going to stock recovery you will need its img and have to flash with odin
weird thing I only had superuser. after putting unroot.zip into my sdcard.
I turn off my device and go to the recovery - tadaaa CWM is gone.
What can cause this?
How I install CWM? Put the cwm into sd card and installed it via recovery menu.
Thx a lot
Taha

I found this file in this forum and looks like it did the job. I check with root checker and it says I'm not rooted.
But I'm confused about CWM. How it deleted itself. It deleted itself before unrooting process.
I don't have the answer
I guess flashing a stock firmware gives you the stock recovery. So its obvious that you'll lose CWM.

Google Search it. Go to your phone's settings>about>baseband version. Then Google search the baseband version and look for a download or a guide. Afterwards download the file and flash it with Odin.

I want to root my LG OP Black P970 running official stock ICS 4.0.4. Can anyone share me the steps by step process. As I know there is no specific button to load the bootloader in this model.
You can try unlock root.
To have CWM, you must flash a patched v20 using smart flash tool.
Please read N00bys guide.

this is because actual recoveries are incompatible with ICS firmwares and will brick your device if you try to flash a recovery. you may try this mod to unlock the bootloader for getting a working recovery

So I tried to root my Galaxy S Advance using Odin. Everything went well until the reboot part. It's been stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S Advance logo screen for a while. What can I do ?
Thanks !
Flash the firmware again! Upgrade to jelly bean, if on gb, and use shaan's method to root.

That root method with Odin is for Android 2.3. You tried it on 4.1.2? If yes, then download your JB firmware again and install it with Odin (like you did with that root). And use this for root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087424

Guys, I've encountered another problem and I thought it wasn't necessary to open another thread. So..I managed to root my phone and I would like to install a custom ROM but I have problems with Clockwork mode. I found a thread about temporary CMW for JB and I tried it but it doesn't seem to work. I installed it but when I want to navigate through it's menus (for example going to the "install zip from sd card" menu) it restarts. Even when I try to reboot my phone ("reboot system now") it doesn't work. CWM just restarts. Any thoughts ?

Install CoCore with Universal kernel flash, and use permanent cwm. You need to unzip it, and use kernel.bin.md5 and you must have some root explorer installed.

No, you cannot change kernel without rooting your phone.
And rooting has a lot less risk of bricking phone.
