Hi im new to this rooting stuff and i need some help bad I got a g1 and it was in donut 1.6..i read a thread that said i had to get it back to a 1.5 firmware and after i did that i wasnt able to one click root it. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!! for some reason my file manager wasnt accepting the flash recovery image and now my fone is stuck with no on screen keyboard and camcorder..Im sorry if this thread has already been answered but i couldnt find anything to help..any help is much appreciated THANKS!!
hi, You could go over to cyanogen's wiki and start over. here is the link http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod , just make sure you read it over a couple of time's cause there is a chance of bricking your device. Oh and when you get to the part a bout the signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip HTC took the link's off for some reason but you can find them at http://www.mediafire.com/?zywmn354kre , or if that one doesn't work for you there is http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BYJBWHAB. I'll say it one more time make sure you read it over and over, and make sure you understand what it say's to do before doing it. Lot's of people have bricked there phone's for not following direction's, and it's no one's fault but your own. Other than that if you have any questions just ask, and ill be sure to help.
Hey guys Sorry for repost of the same questions im freaking out here... I just did some research (something i should have done before posting first , but im in freak out mode)....
Im stuck in bootloop after using the latest TnT lite...I would like to get that back .
I researched how to address this, however i see a couple of ways to get this thing running again, here is what I found:
Using Nvflash got this on TegraTabs site... does this require using my computer?
Here XDA... I saw that someone had the same issue and Clockworkmod Recovery was suggested.
OK this is where i am comfused If i use Clockwork I need my windows (vista) computer correct ? and it looks like I am going to be using command lines also (not a big deal for me)... I saw that i am going to need android SDk and also tegra drivers as well?
I am not looking for the easiest way looking for the best way ... Sorry for asking again however being a noob to Android I just want to make sure that I am doing things right.. is there any other information that would help you guys help me? let me know... again thanks you guys... still in freak out mode and dont want for my money to have been thrown away...I appreciate the help....you guys rock

Best way is to download the Android SDK (to get ADB), the Tegra drivers and NVidia's SDK which includes nvflash. You can get the Tegra stuff here or over at our sister site, tegratab.com (we started putting stuff up there while waiting to get our own forums here on XDA). To get nvflash access, you'll need to modify the Android SDK's INF file (if you're on Windows). Nvflash can get you out of almost anything. Best to back up your images using nvflash before you flash anything else, that way you've got a copy of what's on YOUR tablet as it comes, stock. Since you're stuck in a bootloop, I'd guess you no longer have any stock partitions so maybe just pick up the stock images from over on tegratab.com. They should be fine for you but it's nothing like having a pristine copy of your own images.
Hope that helps. Not sure if I gave enough detail but shout if you need more. We have some really good people here.
Yes you need a PC for NVflash. If clockwork fails then your going to have to NV flash back to stock.
Hey guys I would like to thank you for your responses
I was actually able to bring back my Gtab with the help of forum member dcom222 in this thread

I plan to incorporate his method into my TnT Lite post, there's some good stuff in there.
Hi, I tried to manually install the 2.2.2 update through recovery as the OTA didn't seem to be arriving (dialer checkin didnt work either) but i get an error saying that the update.zip cannot be verified or something like that and it will not complete the installation.
I do not think my N1 is rooted however i did buy it second hand but it was sold as unused and there is no lock on the boot animation.
Also I don't know if this is relevant or not but my N1's kernel version says HTCatand or something where most peoples' says Android Build.
As you can probably tell im a bit of a noob (only experience with this kind of stuff is from my old rooted DEXT).
Anyway do you guys have any idea why the update won't verify?
Thanks.
Also I don't know if this is relevant but i saw someone on another similar post mention their hboot in the bootloader. If its relevant mine was 0.35.something.
Im kinda worried about this as its too late to return the N1 to the guy I bought it from so any help would be hugely appreciated.
I have an urgent question regarding rooting my new Optimus V (Virg Mob), that if possible, i could use an immediate answer for i have very limited time.
I recently purchased a like new, used Optimus V 2.2 o/s off a friend, that is currently not-activated on the Virgin Mobile network, but have been sending/recieving calls and texts through Wi-Fi apps such as Line2 and netTalk. Is it possible to use sublimewulf's method of rooting the opt_v without service (prefer one click root)? i understand that it says it must be activated, but im curious if Wifi will work just as good, or if there is a simple ''one click root'' method i could use. im just not sure why it must be active, im not sure what is done during the one-click method.
Can I root my Optimus V with a One Click root program/app WITHOUT service/activation? If so, could someone please point me in the direction of the download + instructions? Much thanks, its greatly appreciated for all future help- you have no idea..
Thanks XDA Dev team + members,,

Just click the thank button ;-)
Thank you very much, is it normal for the file to be especially large? not sure if the optimus could fit a 173mb file.
Also, what are the chances of this bricking my opt.v or ultimately destoying the operation of the phone??
Also, could you recommend a few ROM's? I heard cyanogenmod is rather popular, but what is it? whats it do- what makes it so special, i guess is what im trying to say. also, is it possible to put the new gingerbread o/s on my opt? would it run as smooth as it runs as is? thanks again, so
what would be a nice ROM to install, and where can they be found (free). also, what are the chances of this root device destroying my handheld, or bricking it? thanks again bro for the fast and accurate response! +thanks for sure!
Oh also,

(DEPRECATED)
I no longer support or care to support this is someone wants to take over and deal with this and the complaints go for it. It has not been tried on the 2.2.2 version of android in case you want to try it.

What is the meaning of this, under the fastbootroot thread? if this program at least works, why would he tag it as being deprecated? also saying he is tired of the complaints. please exp?
thank you. im trying to avoid the slightest bit of damage done to my new phone.
***EDIT::: Do i download the files (from the link you posted) to my phone, or my pc??
He means the complaints of him not working on it.
All you have to do is download this on your computer, as well as the LG drivers, and choose the [Full Package] option, and it will root your phone. Afterwards, see if you can get into recovery, and if not, run the program again and choose the [Flash a custom recovery] option.
Ive used this several times, never a problem.
Best ROM for me was Harmonia, which can be found on Android Central.
i tried both quickbootroot (your link/app posted above) , and also SuperOneClick v2.2, and neither one worked. I tried SuperOneClick, opened the program, and clicked [Root], (after connecting USB to droid, and turning on debugging), and it froze at Stage 2. How do i fix this, and what could cause it?
Im not sure if the cable im using is a charging cable ,or a data cable. i didnt think it would matter, but anyway, how can i tell, and would this cause it?
When i tried the quickbootroot, i opened the .bat file, the disclaimer came up, i hit [y] and enter, and it just went away- nothing happened...
I also ran the usb drivers exe on the computer (i hope this was right), and nothing happened from it neither.
What did i do wrong, and how do i fix this problem? I just want to root my device already...
Hello all i need some help/answer, so i have this Auchan Q4 android|7 that is tablet and phone at the same time but no matter how much i search i can't find custom roms or anything that i can do to make my phone get clear from all the auchan stuff i was trying to find a way of making my own custom rom but seems hard and i don't know if it will work on my phone and im afraid i'll brick the same, so i need some lets say "Guidance" in this.
