Nexus One to CyanogenMod How Do You Do It

So i read a story on Engadget that would allow the Nexus One to record videos in 720p. I wanted to do that but i was told that i had to modify my phone with some program called cyanogenmod. I was linked to this guide:
edit: well i'm not allowed to post links on this forum, that sucks. I'll just post a snippit of the webpage.
Prerequisites
In order to flash a fully stock Nexus One with any ROM, you must first unlock the bootloader of your Nexus One and flash a Recovery Image. If your Nexus One's bootloader is already unlocked, and you already have a Recovery Image installed, skip this section.
WARNING: UNLOCKING THE NEXUS ONE'S BOOTLOADER WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY!
You will need the fastboot shell on your computer to use the commands to unlock the bootloader. Follow the Install the Latest Android sdk guide, to get the ADB and Fastboot shell on your computer.
Before continuing, you should first copy all the necessary files to your SD Card. Doing so will make the entire process much easier and faster. Please do the following to copy the files from your computer to SD card root if your Mass storage is not mounted or you get error when trying to access the mass storage drive.
Connect Nexus One to Computer
Make sure the computer picks up the newly connected device and shows a new mass storage drive
On the phone, pull down the top notification slider, you should see an item called "USB Connected"
Click on the "USB Connected" and click Mount. This will make the phone SD Card available for use with computer
Copy the required files
Files you will need:
Download the latest release of CyanogenMod for the Nexus One and the Google Addon from here Mirror1 Mirror2 Mirror3 Mirror4 Mirror5 Mirror6 Copy these two to your SD Card
Download the latest release of Amon_Ra's Nexus One Recovery Image from - Leave the recovery.img on your pc
Rename Amon_Ra's recovery file "Recovery.img", and make sure you have copied the above two zip files to the root of your SD Card.
Power off your phone.
Boot into Bootloader Mode.
Hold down the trackball, and press the power button. Do not let go of the trackball until the phone boots into bootloader mode (You will see a white screen with three skating bugdroids).
Unlock the Bootloader.
Make sure your phone is connected to your PC.
On your PC, navigate to the AndroidSDK\tools folder.
Hold down the Shift key, Right click on an empty space inside the folder, and press "Open command window here". (note: on Windows XP, this might not work. Instead, you may need to open the command window by going to Start - Run - Type "cmd" - press Enter, then type "cd c:\AndroidSDK\tools" (without the quotes), press Enter)
Inside the command prompt that opens up, type in the following command:
fastboot oem unlock
On your phone, a prompt will open up, asking you if you are sure you want to unlock your bootloader, and again warning you that doing so will void your warranty. If you agree to these terms, press Volume Up to select Yes, and then press the Power button to confirm.
Your phone will restart. Let the phone boot into Android. Switch the phone back to usb debugging (unlocking bootloader causes a wipe, reseting settings), and then Power Off the phone.
Once again, boot into bootloader mode.
Flash Recovery.
Note: The Recovery.img should NOT be on the SD Card, it should be in the current working directory.
On the command prompt you opened earlier, type in the following command:
fastboot flash recovery Recovery.img
The recovery image should now be installed on your Nexus One.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But i'm lost. I downloaded all the necessary files so far but i'm confused up to this point:
Boot into Bootloader Mode.
Hold down the trackball, and press the power button. Do not let go of the trackball until the phone boots into bootloader mode (You will see a white screen with three skating bugdroids).
Unlock the Bootloader.
Make sure your phone is connected to your PC.
On your PC, navigate to the AndroidSDK\tools folder.
Hold down the Shift key, Right click on an empty space inside the folder, and press "Open command window here". (note: on Windows XP, this might not work. Instead, you may need to open the command window by going to Start - Run - Type "cmd" - press Enter, then type "cd c:\AndroidSDK\tools" (without the quotes), press Enter)
Inside the command prompt that opens up, type in the following command:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm on a Mac so i dunno if that makes a difference to how i approach this. but when i power my phone down and boot it into bootloader mode, i can't access the phone on the computer because the phone isn't mounted, its at the white screen. how can i access this androidSDK/tools folder?

Restore Wifi Xoom with 3.1

While trying to unlock xoom, after the 3.1 update, I'm now stuck at the Dual Core screen.
Can anyone guide me to resolution?
Thanks in Advance.

what steps did you take?

I just followed the steps of:
This will ERASE your Xoom.
1) Get the Motorola USB drivers MOTODEV > Documentation & Tools > USB Drivers (you need to sign up on their but maybe you can google this and find it as well)
2) Get the Android SDK Android SDK | Android Developers (you only really need the fastboot executable file for your host OS)
2.5) - I will soon put together a windows pack for usb drivers & fastboot so you don't have to download all this stuff just to do one task.
3) Power off your Xoom
4) Press and hold the volume down button while pressing the power button
Even after the Xoom turns back on keep it pressed down and you'll see some starting fastboot protocol text on the top left of the screen.
5) Open a command window in your sdk\tools folder (not platform tools and depending on when you get the SDK you may need to copy over some DLL files)
6) type:
fastboot oem unlock
7) read the warning on your Xoom's screen, hit volume up if you wish.
You're now free to put whatever data you want on your tablet. Cheers.

Did I miss anything?

Can anyone help me get back on track?

I was able to get my xoom restore with the following steps:
: This will wipe your Xoom
You're going to need to have the Android SDK installed. You can download it here.
Download the official HRI39 build from Motorola here.
Unzip the files in MZ600_HRI39.zip and move or copy them to the /platform-tools folder in your SDK folder.
Connect your Xoom to your computer.
Type adb reboot bootloader. Wait for it to reboot into the bootloader.
Type the following commands, waiting for each to finish before continuing:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
You've now successfully flashed your Xoom back to stock. Now it's time to relock the device.
Type fastboot oem lock, wait for the menu, the press the volume-down button. Then press the volume up button. It'll take a minute or so, then reboot. You're now completely back to stock and ready for the update.

[Q] weird problem on Nexus S - please assist

This is going to be pretty long and have had the problem for months so please bear with me, read and see if you could assist.
Borrowed a friends Nexus S a while back. Used it for a few days, turned it on one day and it stays on the black google screen with the open padlock at the bottom
I am able to enter Fastboot mode is shown in image 2; lock state is unlocked.
I followed the instructions as in post 2 on the following thread

Download and install the Android SDK on your computer from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Open the SDK Manager (there should be a shortcut in your start menu) and install "Android SDK Tools" and "Android SDK Platform-tools" and "Google USB Driver" (it's in Extra).
Turn your phone off, take the battery out, look at the bottom of the phone and write down the model number.
Now go to https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and download the factory image for your model for version 4.0.4.
You'll need something like 7-Zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) to open it.
Copy image-so....zip, radio-crespo...img and bootloader-crespo...img from the factory image to the platform-tools directory (on most computers it will be C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools and you'll need Administrator rights).
Now open the platform-tools directory from the Android SDK and right click on an empty space while holding the SHIFT button and select "Open command prompt here".
Put the battery back in your phone and press Power while holding the Volume-Up button so it will boot into fastboot mode. Then connect it to your pc.
If Windows starts complaining about drivers then point it your SDK installation directory (include subfolders) or use 7-Zip to unpack http://www.mediafire.com/?5a7gou9droidi53 and point Windows to the directory where you unpacked it. More info on http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...e-manager.html
When you type "fastboot devices" and press Enter in the command prompt you opened before it should list one device (being your phone).
If you haven't unlocked your phone before type "fastboot oem unlock" and press Enter. Follow the instructions on the screen on your phone to complete the unlock.
Next type "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-crespo...img" (you can press TAB to auto-complete) and press Enter. (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP, IF THIS GOES WRONG YOUR PHONE IS SCREWED. Don't continue if another step didn't succeed. If this works, then you can do anything with it.)
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Next type "fastboot flash radio radio-crespo...img" (you can press TAB to auto-complete) and press Enter.
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Next type "fastboot -w update image-....zip" and press Enter.
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Next download http://download2.clockworkmod.com/re...0.7-crespo.img and also put it in the platform-tools directory.
Then type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.0.7-crespo.img" and press Enter.
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Now use the volume keys on your phone to navigate to the word Recovery and press the Power button to boot into recovery.
You're now in CWM Recovery, use the volume keys and the power button to go to Mounts & Storage > Mount USB Storage (you might have to scroll down). Now it will come up on your pc and you can transfer the update file for Jelly Bean to your phone. You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...68&postcount=1 (use the one for your model for IMM76D).
Unmount the usb storage, go back to the main menu and go to Install Zip from sdcard > Choose zip from sdcard and open the update file you just transferred to your phone.
You can now go back to the main menu and choose "reboot system now". It will ask you if you want to remove the auto recovery installation, do that.
That's all, you now have a clean and working Jelly Bean installation.
Someone else wrote down the same instructions if mine are not clear enough: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1785672

This prevented me from putting the stock image on the sdcard for flashing via CWM.
is there another way i can get this working, maybe via fastboot or via ODIN so i can return my friends phone.
Thank you.

Hi I had this problem to, mine was from a bad flash / bad firmware.
First I suggest http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284670 better recovery.
After from recovery
select factory reset, wipe cache, and from advance wipe dalvic cache.
then select mount usb, copy to card slim bean 3.1.0 http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewdownload/465-crespo/2505-slim-ns-3-1-0-official plus gaps http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewdownload/461-addonsfullpackages-412/2501-aio-addons, flash them in this order.
After first boot and config u can use http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/ to write the OEM firmware.

Sorry this didn't work because nothing can be written to system and the sdcard is still not able to mount

[HOW-TO] Unlock and Root Moto G via Recovery/SuperSU

Unlocking the Bootloader is Required! This will erase all data and void your warranty!
Since all data will be wiped it's best to do this immediately after getting the phone. At least unlocking the bootloader.
I won't add a disclaimer, because if you trust some guide from some guy on the internet you should know what that means without being told explicitly.
For me the bootimage method posted on Modaco does not work and apparently others seem to have trouble as well (see the poll at Modaco). And since I couldn't find any guide here on XDA I thought I'd write one. XDA helped me a lot when I got my DHD, so maybe now I can help back.
This is based on soyd's guide at swedroid.se which I used to finally get my phone rooted after some unsuccessful attempts.
The guide is for Windows, but could probably be easily adapted to Linux/Mac by using the appropriate drivers/tools. I followed these steps to successfully root my Moto G (16 GB, german retail, Android 4.4.2, OTA 176.44.1).
Here're the neccessary steps:
Install Motorola and ADB Drivers
Unlock Bootloader
Flash Recovery
Flash SuperSU
Enjoy
Install Motorola and ADB Drivers
Do not connect your phone to your PC just yet.
If you already have ADB drivers and Motorola drivers installed, just skip this step.
Download these files:
Motorola Drivers
ADB Tools (thx to androidpit.info)
mfastboot.exe (only download that file from the G-Drive folder - thx to whoever uploaded it)
Run the MotorolaDeviceManager_2.4.5.exe you just downloaded and install it
Extract the two folders from adb-tools_treiber.zip
Open ADB-Treiber folder and run UniversalAdbDriverSetup.msi
Copy mfastboot.exe to ADB-Tools folder
Now this next part might be optional, but some things might not work without it and there's no real harm so:
Enable USB-Debugging
On your phone, open Preferences
Scroll all the way down to About this phone
Scroll all the way down to Build-Number
Tap 7 times on that entry
You'll get a message "You're a developer now"
Go back and open the new item Developer options
Check USB-Debugging
Connect your phone to the PC
Drivers will be installed and the phone will ask you to confirm USB debugging from that computer
Unlock Bootloader
There are probably lots of guides around, but to have it all in one place, here's yet another one:
!YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR WARRANTY AND ALL DATA BY UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER!
Switch off your phone
Hold Volume-Down and press and release Power to boot into Fastboot
A text screen should appear
Connect the phone via USB to the PC
Open a command prompt and browse to the ADB-tools folder you just created
Type:
Code:
fastboot oem get_unlock_data
You'll get five lines of characters, all beginning with (bootloader):
Code:
(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230
(bootloader) 30373731363031303332323239#BD00
(bootloader) 8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95
(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
Copy all lines into one long string without the (bootloader) part!
You want something like 0A40040192024205#4C4D355631323030373731363031303332323239#BD00 and so on.
Open Motorola Unlocker Site (you need to sign-in)
Copy the string in the box at 6. and press Can my device be unlocked?
A Request my Unlock Key button should appear. Check I Agree to the legal stuff and press that button
Check your mail for the unlock key
In the ADB-tools folder type:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock [I]paste_your_key_here[/I]
The phone should reboot and greet you with a nice warning about you having lost your warranty.
Flash Recovery
Now that the booloader is unlocked you have to flash a custom recovery to be able to flash SuperSU.
Download the CWM image from this post. The file should be named something like recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.7-falcon.img. Copy the file to the ADB-Tools folder you created earlier and rename it to CWM.img
Your phone should still be connected to your PC and have finished rebooting and be in stock ROM.
In the ADB-Tools folder type:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
The phone should reboot and the bootloader will come up again
To make sure all's working as expected type:
Code:
fastboot devices
You should get a response similar to:
Code:
List of devices attached
TA93005M6V device
To flash the custom recovery, type:
Code:
mfastboot flash recovery CWM.img
On the phone you might get a message about size mismatch, just ignore it. Now you have to enter the newly flashed CWM recovery. Take your phone and:
Press Volume-Down to scroll to the Recovery menu item
Press Volume-Up to select that item (yes, Vol-Up selects)
The phone will boot into recovery
Now is a good time to backup your system.
Press Volume-Down to scroll to Backup and Restore
Press Power to select that item
Press Volume-Down to scroll to Backup to /sdcard
Press Power to select that item
Backup will commence, once it's finished go back to the main menu and select Reboot, then confirm with YES
You phone will reboot into the stock ROM.
Flash SuperSU
Now you can finally flash SuperSU and be done with the whole business.
Download the newest SuperSU and save the file to your phone's SD-Card's root directory. The phone should show up as an MTP device in Windows file explorer.
In ADB-Tools folder type:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
The phone will reboot and once CWM Recovery has come up, use the Vol-Up/Down keys to scroll and Power to select
Select Install zip
Select zip from /sdcard
Select /0
You should find a file like UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip there.
Select that file, confirm YES and wait for the flashing to finish
Go back to the Main menu and select Reboot, confirm YES
The phone should once again reboot into normal stock ROM operation. To check if all went well, open the app drawer, tap on SuperSU and if no error message comes up... You're done!

I hope there are no mistakes anywhere in this guide and also that it might be helpful to some people...
Please comment if some things should be changed or improved.

I had the same problem at first. When you copy and paste the code on the website it put spaces between the code. There cant be any spaces then it will work. Hoped this helps XD

Thanks
Great guide, I used it to root my Moto G I got today but I had problems with flashing the Clockworld recovery. It simply would not work, said error. But I tried TWRP and it worked. But I also named it recovery.img and used your command but replaced CVM.img with recovery.img. Got rid of ALL of the bloatware. I was stuck at first because I didn't start the command promt inside of the adb tools folder.

Recovery issue
Guys I had a similar issue while flashing the cwm.
When I flash it in the first boot it works, I can enter in the interface and can create a backup or flash one, but after a reboot it do not enter again. I tried entering via fastboot -> Recovery and received the dead android icon with the "No command" message.
Tried installing via PlayStore and had the same result, even with the TWRP.
Any ideas ?
