Its pretty easy or check the cyanogen wiki for further instructions, if you're an electronics tech it should be straight forward, just let me know if you get stuck somewhere as the first time doing so may be a little tricky

ok i will do that and telling , i need just one more ( q) about data on phone , i dont care about data back masg or apps elc.. do i need to do all steps , sorry for bothering you

Personally I do it slightly differently then laid out in that thread, being this is your first time doing this I suggest doing each step and follow order exactly. It is also a good idea to check md5sums when flashing radio and SPL as a bad download could cause a brick, the cyanogen wiki has them listed here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Dream_sapphire_Info

If you have JTAG ability you can do whatever you want, its a bit more experienced then just making a gold card. Ezterry made a nice tutorial on how to JTAG the dream

[Q] rom manager won't flash cw or amon on g1

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?

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

DO NOT use ROM manager, it was created with the best of intentions but ultimately causes more problems than it helps with.

whoah.....this is false!
ROM manager has been around a lot longer than the captivate has.....and it works great on other android devices that ARENT samsung
rom manager is PERFECT for stock roms.
rom manager is bad when you have ClockworkMod built into the kernel already.!
ridethelight is on a bad roll today.
So how do i know if its built in?
Perfect 3g..little to no edge.. live in edge area.. bought the phone from a craigslist user needless to say in a 3g area.
About phone :

Any suggestions ?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
you would check out the page for your kernel but yes it does have it.
and looking at your rom... ect. you have already flashed a rom/kernel/modem (all in one) package.
so ya go back to post 3 instructions. also to get into recovery just long press the powerbutton then press 'recovery' it is easier than the button method in post 3.
Ok thanks alot. U all have been a big help !

[Q] Help plz!!

A friend tried messin around with his tab when he doesnt even know how to jailbreak an iphone 3g... The tab wouldnt even boot past the Samsung Galaxy Tab screen, but it was able to get to download mode... I used a guide to update it to gingerbread using odin, and everything went well! I opened odin, selected PIT and chose the P1_add_hidden.pit file, then i selected PDA and chose the P1000NVFJP6_P1000NUBJP3_P1000NUUBJPB_HOME.tar.md5 file, and i made sure i checked Re-Partition, Auto Reboot, F. Reset Time, Phone EFS Clear and Phone Bootloader Update.. everything went well, but on recovery it was unable to update the systemfile.. but everything else on recovery updated and installed fine! as it reboots, it gets stuck in the bootanimation in the part it says Samsung glowing.. did i do something wrong? how can i fix this? I am still able to get to recovery and download mode fine..
Use overcome method like described here

Btw, you should not have checked Clear Efs.
The replace bootloader too.
And best to use Odin 1.7 included in the gb stock safe in that link I give you.

Why do some people think its rational to use absolutely ridiculous titles like "hlp plz" etc etc??
Please use common sense and use descriptive titles, ie a short title that describes your topic for people browsing the forum. "help plz" does not describe your topic in absolutely any way other then somebody using a completely generic title.

hello, demkantor, can I ask you something? I'm currently using a .0013d SPL and its S-ON ship, some here at xda say that S-ON ship bootloaders only have a few fastboot commands, I dunno if that is tru but I tried to change my slash scree with this SPL but I can't so what I did is to change it on .2005 which is S-OFF and eng and from there I successfully change my splash screen, after that I go back to .0013d spl since it was required for the rom I'm currently using, so I just want to ask if how can I make this .0013d spl an S-OFF Eng.? greatly appreciated if you can help me, thanks in advance,
If you can do this you would be a truly awesome dev
This bootloader is already hacked to work with our phone, if you can transform it to an engineering bootloader that would be awesome!
So unfortunately you'll have to flash the orange.nbh each time you want to change splash screen
