I guess that you need to learn to read then? I know the search engine is down at the moment, but that shouldn't stop you finding the Index and reading some of the highlighted threads listed in there.

He coughs, while still failing to provide aforementioned guidance
Ok here goes:
Use the toolbox.
Follow the instructions to the damn letter, nobody but you is responsible for anything that happens to your phone.
Unlock your bootloader, get CWM or TWRP recovery on it ( I prefer CWM but it's pretty much personal preference. )
After you complete these 2 steps, flashing new ROMs and kernels becomes a trivial process.
Once you get that done, copy the latest Vanir build (and optionally; GAPPS package) to your internal or external card, boot into recovery by holding volume down and power button until the LG logo comes up, then let go.
First, wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache.
Choose install zip from SD card, then choose sd card or external sd card depending on where you put it, navigate to the folder and select it, flash it.
Follow the same procedure for the GAPPS package.
Press back until you hit the main menu, and select reboot system.
It will take longer to boot for the first time, it speeds up after that.
Congratulations, you should now be running Vanir.

The OP has been a member for almost as long as you have. I treated him with courtesy and was polite. The best thing we can do with new members is make them search and read so that they understand what they need to do and why.
When I joined I didn't ask stupid questions - I searched, read and learnt because with my HTC DS if I got it wrong I would have hard-bricked the phone and not been able to fix it.
XDA is not a helpdesk for noobs, that needs to be remembered in the middle of all the social correctness that is now going on. If people are too lazy to try and help themselves they deserve nothing, just as in real life.

Before you try to get this thread closed I feel the need to reply to the arrogant tossers who feel they have a right to ignore the rules. By my reckoning Rule # 1 of the XDA Forum Rules beats #2.5
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.

This place is becoming full of people who claim to have searched - when they simply have NOT. If they can't afford to risk their phone because they need it every day then they should either be certain what they need to do - through searching, reading and learning - or they should not risk their phone.
I repeat "XDA is NOT a helpdesk for noobs". For the OP to tell me to "learn how to respect people" - what does he think I have done over the last couple of years? The answer to his question was out there simple to find if the OP wasn't so lazy. If he doesn't have time to search and read then the same basic rule applies - he doesn't have the time to risk damaging his phone.
FFS people - it's not rocket science and it's not difficult. We don't need yet another tutorial for people to read - because they will continue to be lazy and refuse to search and read. In 6 months time you will still be replying to the same basic questions just because human nature dictates that 90% of the members who sign up here expect to be given the answers without having to do any work themselves.

ROFLMFAO!!! Too funny...
but...
Sage advice!!!
XDA can help if you too are willing to work, and there are sooooo many tutorials here, that reading really IS the best way to begin.
I recently responded to another similar thread from someone new to this...read it, it pretty much says how to upgrade... etc, and read everything else you can get your hands on...
Sometimes us new jacks need a hand to guide us through. Everyone was new at one time or another. Thanks akashatrega, I have read the other thread and I will try to flash my rom again.

Hope it helps...not to be rude, I just didn't feel like typing it twice, so I hope you were able to find the answer in the other thread I mentioned helpful.
In all seriousness, I remember when I was new and begged for guidance, everyone kept telling me to read...and I was like wtf...f*ck you very much but I need help, not a lecture to read...I later discovered after much reading, that xda gets MANY similar questions, and has answers for them all...but one must read to find them. It was a hard pill to swallow when I wanted a straight answer right then, but in reading the threads, I learned so much more than I would have, had someone just answered me. Not to say (for all the "old tymers") that it is OK to just say Read the threads, we should all help...but sometimes reading the threads really IS the best way to learn about the device. I still read the threads in hopes that one day I can attain the geek-god status of many here.
Too true but sometimes if just pointed to the right thread (like you did) I can read it and figure it out. I read through "The Guide" and "How to flash a ROM" and thought I had it figured out until I "flashed" and I still had my original ROM on it instead of BlackDiamond. Once I read the other thread you posted to I realized I hadn't unlocked like I thought I did. I am now flashing BlackDiamond as I type this and will see if I got it right.
Flash worked great!
FORGIVE ME, for i am a total NOOB. I just got my g1 in the other day, and i am completely excited about it. I saw my friends phone and he was telling me i should root my phone, and told me all the benefits of it. The only thing is he didnt show me how to do it! instead told me to come here, the g1 shrine and all of its lovers. Now i just want some basic info anyone can give me, like:
1. what happens when i wipe my phone?
2. what exactly are roms? and why are there so many of them! (as im surfing through the threads)
3. what exactly is SPL?
4. and any other information you think is critical for my knowledge about the g1
Again i appreciate any help i can get from you guys, i know this community is a nice and friendly one so im glad to be here! thanks again guyss
1) when you wipe your phone it removes all personal data, e.g. google sign ins, apps, settings, messeges, etc. you WONT lose your contacts.
2) a ROM is a firmware build, which is what the phone runs on. There are quite a few of them because some are designed for looks over performance wheras some are for performance over looks.

lol DP you are on a reported roll here tonight.
google and search is so easy use... i just don't get some (or most) people.
A little advice... before you start all of this, make sure it doesn't take control of you. Before you know it you'll have alerts waking you up at night telling you someone's new rom just was posted. It will take you over if you let it. lol
Moderation is key.
isn't this a repost anyway?
lol and you bought a Google phone with Google Search built in....
1. It wipes all data on your phone (apps and data, not your firmware)
2. ROM stands for Read Only Memory. Take it as your G1's operating system, like Vista or XP on a computer
3. SPL is pretty much the interface you will be using when flashing an image or using fastboot commands. Be careful when you flash an SPL though, it can potentially brick your phone
4. Just watch out when you flash the SPL, and remember to use Nandroid backups. Installing firmware and applications alone will NEVER brick your phone. Flashing your SPL incorrectly with a corrupted download can, remember to check the MD5 checksums.

I know the feeling of total noobness, let me tell you.. Especially if you coming here and reading all the threads for the first because it can be pretty overwhelming. Hopefully I can pass some of my knowledge on to you to kind of, ease your fears.
.:: Answers ::.
1.)If you wipe your phone, your restoring it to factory settings.
2.)ROMS are different versions of the OS that friendly developers such as Haykuro, JesusFreke and Cyanogen put together, to provide different functionalities or the same functionalities just more reliably or in a different way. (The only way you can use a different ROM is by having root access to your phone.)
3.)Secondary Program Loader, typically, a second stage bootloader. Not a term actually used by Qualcomm for msm7k has a more complex boot path involving both CPUs. Initial/secondary program loader is usually in reference to nand/onenand boot setups where you have a very small initial bootloader (1k to 16k typical), that is just enough to load a much larger secondary bootloader. Often there is something that runs first, in-rom, on-die (this is true of omap and msm chips for example) that is responsible for getting the IPL loaded.
4.)I would browse the Android FAQ to find other pieces to the much growing puzzle. I would definitely root your phone though (instructions here), and once your ready, setup your apps2sd (instructions here). If you want, I can help you do your apps2sd too, just hit me up on Gtalk if you want. As for ROMS, if you need help choosing, you can (go here) or if you want a suggestion, i would use Cyanogen's v3.4 ROM because it's an way modified version of JF'sv1.51 but allows you to use the Ext3 format for your apps2sd (which is good).
Hopefully this sheds more light for you, hit me up if you have any other questions.
Hi every1,
I've just rooted my phone t-mobile(rc7) tested by turning on my phone typing enter reboot then enter which worked, now i have root is there anything i need to do before i put a rom on?

What is the problem, this so called community I've heard about is not much of a community is it.
There's no need for it at all.
Can someone please offer some real advice.
Ok, here is a real advice:
Please read the tutorials.
I have, but the one I am reading shows an old JF1.41 rom, when I looked at the other roms it says things like only for 36b phones ect..... It's confused me a little because tho I am amature techy I am also extra cautious and dont want to brick my phone.
Would I be ok using CyanogenMod [v3.9.7] && Palm Pre theme [1.8] ported for instance
I think the reason people are being a bit hostile is because you posted a question in the development section. That may seem OTT but there are some days when the whole first page of the development section is filled up with questions.
Before you flash a cupcake ROM (cyanogen, JF) you will need the new radio. I'm not entirely sure if you can flash that radio on RC7 or whether you will need to install a custom ROM first (like JF's RC9) so if someone could clear that up that would be useful. It can be found here. Copy that to your SD, name it update.zip and flash. Then you can flash a Cyanogen or any other cupcake ROM. That particular ROM you were talking about sounds like it was ported to the HTC Magic/Sapphire. Only flash ROMs from the dream section.

Hi mate, I wouldnt flash 3.9.7 if you only just rooted your phone, go with the stable v3.6.8.1 first, then use Nandroid recovery to create a backup. Then worse case scenario you can always restore that image if needed.
There's a good reason 3.9.7 is marked as experimental, and there is alot to learn before attempting any Hero roms etc.
If you get stuck with anything feel free to shoot me a PM Im always around and happy to help.
Long time lurker first time poster btw
Thanks guys, I will not post in this section again and sorry to those I have upset, would hve been nice to have been simply told.

Wow that was by far the hardest groaned I have ever seen in my few months on xda!
People are just tired of everybody posting in devolpment when there is a q and a section, and when there are 20 to 30 new threads that have already been discussed, the devolpers get annoyed. Go with the stable version of cyanogen's rom, flash the new radio image and get yourself the hard spl, not the special, if you see warnings, run very far away. Install the s a lifesaver
ahem...
I wasn't hostile before, attempting to be civil now.
You posted two questions in the development forum. The first was regarding root. There are numerous tutorials available on this forum and even more via a simple google search. I know this because I read them, learned the process inside and out and successfully rooted my phone within the first hour of owning it. So yeah, I made a joke about a hard working mod having to move your thread... no personal attack so whatever.
Your second question was an open ended request for what are basically opinions. There are a number of great custom roms being developed here on XDA and all of them are unique in their own way. Roms like HERO and Cyan's experimental rom are definitely not for newcomers and the threads posted by their developers clearly state the risks involved in attempting to run them. 15 minutes in the dev forum and you could have made an educated decision on your own. One post in Q&A and you would have gotten much friendlier responses but in the end, you'd still have to choose your own adventure.
Let me make one thing clear...
I'm not a dev. I'm an end user who tries to contribute something useful to this forum and learns a whole bunch in the process. I've offered help to many people via PM and replies in threads (as long as the discussion is on-topic) but over time I've come to the realization that simply handing out information instead of forcing you to find it on your own actually does a disservice to not only the forum, but YOU as a user. So hate on us all you want. I think you'll find that following forum rules in the future will make your experience here a happier one, and snarky comments like yours are better left un-submitted.
To answer your question: I started with JF's 1.5 rom and think it was a great way to gain exposure to the world of custom roms and root. A lot has changed since then and things have actually become a lot easier since cyanogen released his recovery image w/ nandroid and tools like switchrom came out. Its now very easy to hop between roms and there are fewer chances you'll screw something up in the process. Personally, I've been sticking with Cyanogen's roms since 3.4.6, and though there have been some bumps in the road I've had very few issues and am currently working with his 3.9 experimental builds.
Hope you get where I'm coming from, good luck to you in the future.
was wondering if mods are anyone who post roms.. can also post step by step instructions on how to install the rom, including software/programs needed to flash it. Its hard to search around the forum to download things..But if you post everyting in one thread, it would prolly avoid a lot of noob questions..

This user has already been directed to that link, and complained it was too long.
To the OP, the directions are clear cut and work. Slapshot did a fantastic job compiling all the steps.
Complaining that they are too long and creating another post to complain some more will get you no where and you're probably better off not rooting your phone until you can understand the instructions.
This was my first root, and although HTC phones are supposed to be harder to root, I accomplished it without a hitch thanks to the instructions so please be patient and take the time to read through all the posts.
If the Superguide is too hard for you, this whole thing isent for you

Honestly, if you're really gonna be this much of a baby about it, switch to a more popular phone, and head over to FreeYourAndroid.com. They have 24/7, and very easy to follow tutorials. Before you even go check for our phone, no its not on there. Hence why I said go grab a more popular phone.
As to how we lay out information here, its because its not for noobs to come and start diving into the world of android modding just like that. There is too much information, too many different (yet individually important) ways to do things, and too many different ROMs and the like coming way too fast to have it all posted in one place. General is for general knowledge things and any questions that don't involve a specific thread. Its a great place for noobs to hangout, learn the ropes, and find basic information. The Android Development forum is there for just that, Android development. So this is where all the ROMs, Mods, Root tricks, and the like go. That is an impossible amount of information to condense into one thread. Not to mention its not fair to the devs who deserve the credit for their hard work. On top of this, ROMs require different ways to be flashed properly. They have different directions, different issues, different fixes. It would be insanely stupid to consolidate information any more then we already have.
So if your gonna whine, then as I stated in the General Knowledge thread:
Don't flash ROMs, unlock your bootloader, ect.:
If you don't know what your doing, don't do it. If you don't want to take the chance, don't do it. If youre just going to whine, don't do it. Its the simplest solution to not making a mistake and staying stable.

XDA isn't for babies, and its not for noobs to start doing things straight out of nowhere. Don't get me wrong though, most of us have no issues showing you noobs the ropes. Although, if youre not going to even try and just gonna sit here whine wanting to be babied we won't care the least bit about you. So in conclusion -
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Mods pleaseclose this bs thread.
thanks

No it is not rude at all. Slapshot30 wrote a guide that was created into a sticky which explains how to root, put cwm recovery, flash a rom, etc. If you can't follow simple instructions (searching before posting) then this isn't for you.

I may have to register those and set up a redirect back to Google.com.
Chill out guys, damn, you all sound like some grumpy old men. I've been in PPC's when they had B/W screens back in the 90's and I don't get this angry when a new guy ask me some questions. We all had to start out somewhere.

People are very willing to help and most on here do but it's frustrating when someone wants something easier when he has already been directed to the post he needs in another thread before starting this one. The guide that Slapshot created is great and very easy to follow. If that guide is too difficult for you, you shouldn't be doing this stuff to your phone.

You may refer to this link.
Very helpful in term of rooting and flashing
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2337733
Feel free to head over to the development section and do some reading, but for what you are asking YOU DO NOT NEED TO POST.
There's a lot to learn in here, and a lot of very helpful people, but I PROMISE you that ALL of your questions have been answered before.
Those in here who aren't part of active development are all people who went from zero knowledge/understanding of android to merrily flashing every rom under the sun, rooting and re-rooting their devices into hard-brick heaven.
Read. Read more.
Stop complaining, and read more. If you have questions, use the search function. Do it again, but phrase your search string differently.
If none of this works, ask your question politely and concisely, and don't post to the dev section unless you have something useful to contribute.
P.S. If you're not a native english speaker, I apologise from the bottom of my heart, I didn't mean to offend.
If you are a native english speaker, learn how to write/speak like a human being instead of the stream of consciousness of a whiney twelve year old who's had his x-box taken away.
I concur!

no standardization at to how to flash this and flash tat.very very different from htc where once u get an unlocked bootloader,BOOM,u go flashing like no tml with no flash counter watsoever.
samsung??? jeez man,flash counters are like herpes,doesn't go away if u dun know wat to apply.
thats jus my *****ing.but still dude,u still need to read and gain knowledge in flashing custom roms.this is to educate yourself the risk (of bricking) u are getting into when flashing roms.no amount of instructions can help you on that one.you jus need to know what in god's name u are doing.
so i'll do u a favor and point you to reading the flashing guide by dr ketan.no links as this one is stickied for all noobs to read.

GUIDE

I think that you should go through the threads which are meant for newcomers who want to play with their phone and roms so that you know how to recover your phone if something goes wrong because doing things without proper knowledge can change your phone into a beautiful paper weight.Go through the following thread which can give a clear idea about flashing official ICS for Germany but I strongly advice to think and proceed or probably wait for your country's turn to get official ICS...
Anyways here is the link...

Unfortunately if you are sick of your note, i am not sure that just putting a new ROM on there is going to change your mind
You should sell it whilst its still worth something.
