I'm having a problem right after installing the bootstrap recovery. When I restart my device, I'm stucked in a black screen right after the Motorola logo, which should appear CWM. The first time I tried this ROM, everything funcionoou perfectly, however, after I returned to the Stock Rom Froyo, can no longer enter into boostrap recovery or Clockwork Recovery.
I just tried a Wipe Data/Cache before this operation.
My device its rooted with z4root. Its ok about that.
Anyone can help me!!!

Dude, like i said, i do this twice and reflash sbf 2.3 again too.
Dont know, you could try another 2.2.2 sbf. I have the same problem, and after trying many times, it worked.

Dude, i have tried installing other rom, like a branded movistar, but not sucess with this...
You need to root a fresh install of a 2.2(.2) ROM with SuperOneClick. z4root is unreliable. After that install Droid2 Bootstrap and Bootstrap Recovery. After that you'll have CWM back.

Superoneclick works great with 2.2.2. Never tested z4root.

Never tried SuperOneClick but have heard it is good from friends with other phones. I used GingerBreak with 100% success. However, only had bad experience with Z4Root, like it would freeze while rooting then when it did "complete" the root process my phone wasn't actually rooted.
So I recommend GingerBreak, but also have been hearing great reports about SuperOneClick too.

I had froyo running on here for about 2 days but decided to revert back to 2.1 for voodoo amongst other reasons, now I can't root since stock recovery won't install update.zip, instead it just says installation aborted.
If this has been discussed elsewhere before I apologize but I couldn't find it when I searched. Any help would be great....
So you are on 2.1 now? I would Odin one more time and try root again. Do a master clear as well and see if that helps.
Already reodined, and how long does Master Clear take? It seems to start then hang and never finish no matter how many times I've tried it in the past. And when I say hang I mean I've waited 45 minutes before...
When I rolled back from 2.2 I downloaded and flashed JF6 using the Odin 1-click. I then was able to use Clockworkmod to install my Nandroid backup of JH7. It should be as simple as that. I didn't even need to do a master clear.
You can't use clockwork mod without root though and since I can't install any update.zip I can't root...
How are you trying to root your phone? One click method our some other way?

Do you still have the update.zip from the Clockworkmod install? I flashed a non-rooted JF6 firmware and was able to load Clockwordmod to restore my backup. My JF6 flash wasn't rooted.

That's the beauty of Clockwork, if you backed up with Nandroid and you still have Clockwork as your update.zip then when you use your Nandroid backup the root is on the backup. No need to manually root after Odin.
Hi. I'm trying to return the G2x and I'm trying to get a replacement. I had serious problems with random rebooting. I've already installed the factory rom and used superoneclick to unroot the phone. I no longer have super user. However, when I pressed the power and vol down button, it still takes me to clockworkmod recovery.
How do i go about restoring the stock recovery?
Use the One Click CWM recovery flasher.

Is there a link to this? Or is it a part of the superoneclick?
The reason why I need to make sure it's unrooted because I purchased the phone from Wirefly. I don't know how detailed they are. If it was just to a T-mobile store, then I wouldn't care too much about the cwm.

Hi all.
Recently used the LG software to update to the 2.3.3 GB release.
Like we all know, I lost my root.
I found a stock rooted 2.3.3 ROM that I want to use so that I can be rooted again.
Can I "Re-flash" the NVFlash on my non-rooted device?
Will it work to let me flash this new ROM? I've attempted to put NVFlash back onto my device, and it appears that it was successful. I'm nervous about trying to power-down and boot into CWM via NV. Can anyone confirm that this works?

That's how I rooted my G2x after ths update. Just make sure you can boot into recovery then backup, wipe data and install it normally. I was concerned about doing it too, but it worked perfectly normal. I used the 2.3.3 rooted rom. You can find it in the G2x development forum.
Let me know if you any questions.

Hey Donatello,
So, did you use the LG software first, and THEN NVFlash a new ROM?
Or did you just flash a 2.3.3 ROM in the first place?
I'm about to attempt the FIRST of those two. Am I understanding correct that is also what you did?
quick Q but nvflash now roots the device? but no SU is on it, i guess just download that from the market and we're done???
If this is the case I'm so happy cause superoneclick is very buggy to me!

Can anyone please help me with a step by step tutorial on how to root gingerbread 2.3.3.

I finally bit the bullet and did it last night. You can't do it like Super One Click, you basically have to install ClockWorkMod
Go here and skip down to the picture of the screen with 3 large buttons.
Follow the instructions to:
1) Install the Nvidia NvFlash APX Driver
2) Install Flash ClockworkMod Recovery
3) Download a ROM (I just chose the stock Gingerbread with root access -- That is the only way to get Root Access)
4) Put the downloaded ROM on the root directory of your SD card
5) Backup all your stuff (I used MyBackup Pro)
6) Follow the instructions to boot into recovery mode.
7) There are instructions for installing each mod but it involves clearing data/cache, installing the mod.
It isn't as hard as it sounds but it can be intimidating. This is just a summary from the top of my head. There may be a few more steps.
Good luck.
Here is the link for the stock Gingerbread 2.3.3 mod.

No. As long as you flash recovery properly then you can flash any rom compatible with the phone. As long as the rom is rooted you'll have root.
G2X CM7
flash recovery as in having the menu where you hold lower volume button and the power button to make it say android and have it show up a menu for reboot,wipe data/cache, etc?

That's the one. It should say clockworkmod recovery at the top.
G2X CM7
Before you flash a rom make sure to wipe data/factory reset. Its one of the options in the recovery menu.
G2X CM7
ok. What if i mess up? Mess up as in like it crashes during and when i load it up will it be bricked?

Do you mean when you flash a new rom? If so then no, as long as you used the nvflash method to put clockworkmod recovery on your G2X then you can always boot back into recovery to fix your issues. Just make sure you ONLY flash roms made for the G2X. Don't flash anything made for the O2X.
G2X CM7
General rule for flashing roms:
- If you're switching from one rom to a different one, you should do a full wipe/factory reset before flashing. For instance, flashing from stock to CM7, or flashing from CM7 to MIUI, etc.
- If you're updating to a newer version of the same rom, then just wipe cache and dalvik cache and then flash the update.

Ok i just finished flashing ginger bread 2.3.3 rooted onto my g2x. Also How do i get the old camera back from froyo? That one had so many options, this one has very little and i jjust downloaded an app but it wont install
Superuser update.zip?
After installing CWM recovery why can't you just run Chaindd's SuperUser update.zip installer. Since CWM is on the phone, it should be able to install this update.zip file. If not, why not?

No clue. I'd like to take a look at it. Do you have a link to that zip file? What does flashing the zip do to the phone? Have you tried it? Results?

I don't have my G2X yet so I haven't tried it. The file can be found in Chaindd's SuperUser thread. He is the author of the SuperUser permissions program. It just installs superuser.apk and su with proper permissions to the phone. Works on most devices with CWM installed.

How???? i have the drivers, opened every one..dont know how to install...
i flashed EP4P stock, deodexed, debloated and rooted and all was good for a couple of weeks. 2 days ago i was able to use barnacle but i went to use it today and it says i do not have root privliges so i wnet to superuser to check for an update and it says i do not have root. tried restarting phone and thats about it. anyone know why this happened and how i can fix it?
I think the easiest thing to do would be to reflash the rom. Is it an ODIN only flash or do they have a CWM flash posted as well?

Flash this in your recovery.
thank you for the quick replies.
i am new to roots and have only used odin twice.
i really hate to reflash with odin only because it is a pain to get everything back to how i want it. but if i have to i will.
i have never user CWM. so i will do some searches for how to unless you can point me in the right direction.
i assume i need to flash the superuser into the recovery with CWM????
i do have superuser that showed up after i flashed 2.3.6 and i tried reinstalling it and still the same thing

you have to use Odin to flash CWM, then immediately boot into CWM after and flash that superuser.zip file... if still nothing download/update it from the market

I am completely new to rooting. I tried to use super one click on my charge after it was updated to 2.3.6 and it failed, so from what I understand, one click methods are out for now. I want to root my phone still, so where would I start? And would that method involve me having to do a factory reset? Thank you
