Okey, before FRG83D I rooted my phone with SuperOneClick. Then I decided to go back to the original ROM, and update to FRG83D. As you know, this revoked my root access. So now I unlocked the bootloader and ran Superboot. However I don`t get rooted. My suspicions are that because my old Superuser apk is left, something goes wrong. Plz help me figure this out!

Are you telling me there is NO way to root 2.2.1 ? :O
No, I think the other guy is just thinking of a root-without-unlock method.
You are already unlocked. So it's just a matter of changing the system correctly to root it. Easiest way is to probably flash an already rooted stock build over it. (I assume you want to remain stock)
Or at least you need to find the correct way to root 2.2.1, which is hard because there are probably a lot of people out there looking for a root without unlocking, so that will pollute your search results.
Edit: Of course, I could be way off base and not know what I'm talking about.
Yup, flash a rooted stock rom, like Geo's.
I still don't know why people love to make things harder on themselves than it needs to be lol.
Okey, this is kinda crazy, because Adblock is working and has all permission, but nothing else!

Not familiar with Adblock, but if it is similar to AdFree it just works by replacing your /system/etc/hosts file with one that directs every advertising address to the loopback address, thus preventing the apps from loading. If that file was in place before you lost root, it will continue to block ads for you.
Okey, but if I just want to flash CM, what do I do? Can't get to recovery :/

You're unlocked, right? Super easy :-D
Download a recovery *.img (or extract it from a recovery .zip).
Reboot your N1 to fastboot mode (press and hold VOL-DOWN while powering on - press Power to select Fastboot USB when the option is presented).
Connect your USB cable.
Run fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (replacing "recovery.img" with the appropriate file name). When complete, you have an aftermarket recovery again.
Boot to recovery and install whatever ROM you want

I'm afraid you'll have to be more descriptive than that.
HOW are you trying to boot to recovery? There are several methods:
1) Issue the adb reboot recovery command
2) Boot to the bootloader (press and hold Volume-Down while powering on), use the volume keys to scroll down to Recovery, and the power button to launch it.
3) Use an application like Quick Boot to reboot directly to recovery from the OS, though that may require a working root.
Have you tried these methods? If so, what happened? What did you see on the screen?
Number 2. Just seeing an Android and a triangle.

Then that is the stock recovery. Flashing a third-party recovery was not successful. Did you receive any error messages from the fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command?
Your bootloader IS unlocked, right? You have a padlock icon on the bottom of the screen immediately after poweron?
The flash was successful, no error messages. And yes, the padlock is there.

Are you using safestrap for your clockworkmodrecovery or are you using regular bootstrap?
And when you're in clockworkmod recovery what exact steps did you do to flash? You should wipe data & cache, then choose install zip from sdcard.

I don't know how to use or get bootstrap and I don't know alot about safe strap yet. I tried different ways I tried using rom manager an downloading the rom from there then it will ask if I want to boot into recover I push ok and the phone just reboots. Nothing happens so I tried rom toolbox an did the same thing. So I tried to boot myself by pushing the power and x an I did as you said I wiped data a cache then I reset and restored my phone went back an installed zip from sd card then it starts to install then it says E file signature verification has failed.

Ahhhh ok.
It sounds like you are trying to install zips via the stock recovery. That recovery will only install signed/official ones, not custom rom zips.
If you want to install custom roms, try this method (but I recommend browsing through the other threads. There is a lot of useful info out there). This is the safestrap method. Safestrap allows you to have your stock rom (that you are on now) in the "non-safe zone" and with safestrap you can enable the "safe zone" for installing your custom rom.
1) make sure your phone is rooted if it isn't already. There are threads about this... I used DoomLord's root (version 4) for my phone but read up.
2) install safestrap 1.08 (u can find it in the droid 3 development forum). It is an apk file.
3) when you run safestrap 1.08 from your app drawer, superuser will probably ask you if you want to allow it root access, say yes.
4) in the app, hit the first button. It will install safestrap so you can boot into safestrap recovery. When it says its done, restart phone.
5) upon restart, you will be greeted by the safestrap splashscreen. It gives u 10 seconds to hit Menu to take you into safestrap recovery. Otherwise it will just continue with booting.
6) so hit menu. Safestrap ecovery appears. It will indicate that safe mode is not enabled yet. You are in non-safe right now (your stock rom)
7) this step is optional but I'm sure everyone will recommend it (I do also). Navigate your selection with the down/up volume buttons and hit power when you get to "backup". This will back up your non-safe zone and dump it onto your sdcard (internal or external). You can restore it to your non-safe zone (only) if you happen to mess up your non-safe system. The backup will be stored in /safestrap/backup. of whatever card you select.
8) now that that's done, it will take you back to the main menu of safestrap recovery
9) Go to "safe boot menu" and hit Toggle safe zone. Don't do the quick toggle, just do the normal one (the first one)
10) when that is done, you will notice the colour of the text has changed. And at the top it will say safe zone enabled. You can now install your custom rom by going to "install zip from sdcard" from the main menu of safestrap*
*Note that when installing roms, make sure to choose Wipe Data first. It will wipe your data and cache. Then go into mounts and storage and choose "format /system" (thanks Endo). Some people also like to go into the advanced menu and wipe the dalvik cache as well (is this necessary? I do it every time because I had to back on my old htc... maybe someone can comment on this?) It doesn't seem to hurt anything when I do it, so...
So after your wipes, you can go to "install rom from sdcard" . Choose the .zip of the rom (of course) to begin install. When the rom has finished installing, you can go back to the main menu and choose reboot phone. You will be greeted by the safestrap splashscreen again. It will tell you that safe zone is enabled. Wait the 10 seconds to boot normally or you can hit the search button to go immediately.
On first boot of many roms, it may take a little longer than normal to start up. Be patient. If it never boots (and you are looking at the boot animation forever... say more than 5-10 minutes?) Then... somethings wrong, or you may have forgotten to do your wipe procedure, but go to that rom's thread and read all the posts to see if others experienced the same thing... someone could have posted a good suggestion or solution
Oh, if you want to switch back to non-safe mode, restart phone, get into safestrap recovery, go into safe boot menu, and hit toggle. Then restart phone.
If something disastrous occurs, there are Unbrick and Fastboot threads in this forum where you can download a stock rom for your phone and flash to your phone via RSD Lite, which will pretty much restore your phone to stock. (No more safestrap, no more root). Read through those to get more info.
Hope this is helpful. Good luck!

I'm not really sure what you are doing but uninstall any recovery you may have installed and ditch rom manage(you can keep the toolbox) go to www.hash-of-codes.blogspot.com go to downloads and get safestrap. Install it, open it and click install recovery. Reboot your phone, you'll get a screen saying pish menu to enter recovery then once it enters go to safe mode menu(or whatever it exactly says) and enter safe mode. Once safemode is active(it says at the top of the screen)go to mounts and storage and format system then do a data/cache wipe, the install zip from sd
If you're doing what I think you're doing you are new to this and I would suggest reading as much as you can in this forum and by googling the various terms you find so you don't brick your phone

If you have your heart set on rom manager, I believe it will work, but I've never used it so I can't help you there. I recommend safestrap because once you're in safemode its pretty hard to screw up your phone in any serious manner. In safemode you'll always be able to access recovery.
In a google search of your issue I found a recommendation of turning off signature verification. I know I've seen an option for this or something really damn similar in clockwork recovery. You can try that if you like but I don't know the effects of it. As always, I'm not responsible if you brick your device
That said, I would also suggest that you look into obtaining rsdlite and the appropriate fastboot package(you may know this as an sbf, although that term isn't totally correct)so if you do brick your device you know how to recover it. There's a sticky in the dev forum about it
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium
Thank you I understand I wouldn't ever blame anyone for my mistakes so your good. I was thinking about using safestrap anyways just haven't had time to research it much yet. Probably would be best since I don't know much about roms anyways. Now it's not that I have it set with rom manager just seemed easy to use and I like rom toolbox alittle more anyways. I also know that not all roms are comparable with the safestrap so that's another reason why I haven't used it yet.
Now on another topic. I have downloaded safestrap on my computer all I have to do is plug my phone to the computer an put it on mass storage and place it in the sd card or internal memory and unplug it an click on it on my phone.
I really need to start some research cause this stuff is pretty hard.
But thanks for your help again

I don't know how I missed your huge write up. More detailed than mine.
I figured the same, stock recovery. I'm not sure what steps he's taken before he wrote this thread.
OP if its the boot animation, on first boot it takes a long time. 5 minutes normally but give it 10 to be sure. If its the splash screen you may have issues. Is the safestrap splash coming up, where it says press menu
You may have to use rsdlite or the fast unbrick to restore your phone to stock. If you can write us EVERYTHING you've done in as much detail as possible, and exactly what is happenig now we can come up with a solution.
I think often all the various terms can be confusing to newcomers. I have a feeling perhaps that you still have a bootstrap installed and safestrap.

Well I decided to call Google about the boot loader recovery not working as it should. I was hoping this call would help them to work on another update but they say that's the way its supposed to work. Here's the email Instructions:
1. Power down your device
2. Press and hold both volume keys and the power button to enter
Bootloader mode
3. Press the volume keys to cycle to the Recovery mode option
4. Press the power button to select Recovery mode
5. From the Recovery mode screen, press and hold the Power button then
press the Volume up button.
6. Use the volume buttons to select wipe data/factory reset.
7. Select Yes -- delete all user data.
8. The factory data reset process will now start. Once its finished,
select 'Reboot system now.'
The only option we have in the new recovery is to wipe data. Maybe for those having problems accessing twrp or cwm will be able to a access it with step 5. I don't know haven't rooted yet. So I decided to ask about nvflash and they said they're not going to release any nvflash tools or files.
um, yup. thats how stock bootloader and stock recovery work. lol
whats the issue? if your not even rooted, you wouldn't even know if you have an issue or not with the new bootloader.
Are you saying that you can't flash a different recovery? Or that when you do you still get the same stock recovery? I'm not quite sure what the issue is here, because that is exactly how the stock bootloader, and recovery are supposed to work.
Are you making sure to unlock fastboot before trying to flash recovery. I don't recall seeing or hearing anyone say anything about not being able to get to clockwork mod once its installed.

No. I saw people posting they couldn't get go cwm and could only see the red exclamation point. And I was just saying maybe after choosing recovery then holding volume up and power it would then go to cWm or twrp. I was hoping for someone to try it who is still on 3.41 Recovery. A lot of people downgraded back to 3.39 or whatever version it was

I can confirm that to get in to the stock recovery you hold down 'power' and then tap 'vol up'.
At present I am running the latest CWM touch recovery. This boots straight into it from the bootloader without any extra button presses.
My personal preference to go into CWM is from either QuickBoot or ROM Manager.

When I first flashed TWRP onto my Nexus 7 after that official 4.1.2 OTA update, I wasn't able to boot into it. I then flashed it again via fastboot, and then booted the TWRP image that was on my computer, and then TWRP loaded.
I believe TWRP does work normally now as well (I can boot into it and reboot into it).

There are plenty of people that are having issues with recovery on 3.41 bootloader.... Its confirmed some have it some don't.
The issue is that with 3.41 bootloader on some Nexus 7 Devices a custom recovery is unbootable no matter how you try, every time it will try to load recovery and fail at a black screen then reboot into the OS. It does not matter how you try from ADB reboot to recovery or from bootloader with USB attached or not.

In your system folder there's a file called 'recovery-from-boot.p'
Go into a file manager with w/r access and rename it ' recovery-from-boot.p.bak'
When the system boots it reads that file and resets the recovery to stock, by changing the name you remove the problem.

I'm not certain but it might be called update.zip, because if I remember that's the only name that will flash in the stock recovery. As for finding it, just try searching for update.zip. it should be on the root of the sdcard(no folder) because that's the only way I thought it could install. Any ways I'm probably wrong but at least you can try.

I'm not sure really what CSC code is but I think your talking about stock Odin flash able package. That should get you back to stock and flash the stock recovery and wipe everything. However i think it will bootloop after it flashes so you will have to boot into recovery and wipe data. If so check out the wiki. There is all the info you need. I have another idea though. I haven't done this myself but you should be able to push a clockworkmod recovery.img to the phone from a terminal if you have adb also in the wiki. I can't view your pic because I don't have a Facebook but maybe someone else can. Good luck

That is the stock update pushed by Samsung from what it sounds like. Also sounds like a data packet might have dropped during the downloading of it causing a bad install. For simplicity get cwm Installed and boot thru that and flash from cwm. Wiki has all the info needs.
Wiki please read completely on rooting and install of cwm. Suggest 6.0.1.2 version. Personal preferences on that.

Easiest way, take out battery, push volume up and power, insert battery while holding, when Samsung appears release only power, when the android guy with package appears press menu

Make sure you push the "Menu" capacitive button (left in the row of four buttons below the screen) when you see the green Android guy and the box. That will get you into the stock recovery menu.
I had to reboot into recovery a couple of times because I missed that part. What a pain!
Hello!
I'm sitting here with an Nexus One with an broken powerbutton. I would like to install a new ROM, but my problem is especially, that i can't select an option, when my phone is in recovery mod.
How could i navigate aorund the problem? I know, a few options are available from an shell, for example to reboot. But i can't navigate and choose an entry out of the shell.
Do i miss some features or does exist other ways to install an new ROM?

use clockwork mod recovery , choosing is by the trackball
try 4ext touch recovery. no need of power button. search for it under DEVELOPMENT SECTION...

Thanks!
You helped me a lot.
I was also confused, why my phone can't boot twice into recovery, till i found out, that my android device automatically reinstalled the normal recovery image.
Anyway! Thanks a lot. Some simple informations can change whole things
may be cos ur recovery didnt stick permanently.
yeah. true. glad to hv helped
