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.

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:

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?

It appears as if you have installed some kind of rooting tool. The reason why the phone boots up normally after you choosing Recovery is because you don't have a custom recovery tool installed.
To solve this same problem, I factory reset my phone. (this is assuming that you have windows) To do this, install the Motorola Device Manager (google it and find the motorola support page, you can download it there) and reboot your computer.
Then connect the usb cable to your computer and download the android SDK platform tools from here -
ht tp://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#download
^remove the space in ht tp because i can't post links
Extract the /sdk/platform-tools folder to a location which you can easily access.
Then, open command prompt and type
Code:
cd [mydirectory]
for example, if i stored the platform-tools folder on my desktop, i would type
Code:
cd C:\Users\[myusername]\Desktop\platform-tools
then open the bootloader (fastboot) by holding POWER and VOLUME-DOWN instead of just the power button when trying to boot.
OR type this into command prompt (your phone has to be turned on for this)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
then, once your phone is in the bootloader (do not press anything on your phone at this point), type this in command prompt
Code:
fastboot -w
Remember, this will wipe all your user data / cache but it should make your phone work again. I'm not sure how to do this without factory resetting so if there are any users who are more experienced, feel free to post your better solution. thank you.

Thanks
Thank you so much currently I can't try out your method but it looks like it could work THANK YOU SO MUCH I'm going to try tonight and I'll tell you how it went. I really don't mind factory resetting as long as it saves my phone im all right thanks again :laugh:!!!

Will factory reset erase root??
One more thing I actually am currently rooted by using RockMyMoto so I think that is why the update didn't work but 1 last question when I factory reset will it erase root? I don't mind if it erases root but my main concern is that if root somehow stays I won't be able to do the software update.

Tried the method and it worked!!
I tried what you said and it worked perfectly but it still remembers my Wifi, wallpaper and all it showed the setup screen and I set it up so hopefully im in the clear the phone is downloading the update right now.

It will not allow the update and you will still end in boot loop. Need to remove root first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2577029

LG G2 CM 11 BOOTLOOP! Help please!

hello guys, i just installed a nightly cm 11 on my LG G2 D805, i used a trick to convert it to D802, so its ok, but when i install the zip, i got stuck in the bootloader, i already wiped the data and cache, system, etc, the problem is i cant download and install another zip because the LG G2 has no SD ! ...i cant add more files to install, i need help, how i can unbrick my phone? please!

Can you enter the download mode?

This is easily solvable, I've had a few issues like you since the Nexus 5 does not have an SD Card slot either.
What you'll need to do is set up ADB, Google it if you don't have it.
Then go to where you have the contents (adb files). Or you can go into cmd (command promt) and type in "cd your/adb/folder/destination" if you haven't done the "cd" method simply go into the adb folder. And open a cmd window there, once open. Boot your device into recovery mode and plug in your cable to your PC. So that it detects your device.
Then in the command prompt window type the following command - "adb devices" (This will run adb and it'll check to see if adb is properly installed, if your device does not pop up, make sure you cable is in properly. If it still doesn't show, you will have to install the drivers for your device again... Properly).
Now it should list your device, go into the G2 section and download the preferred rom.
Once downloaded simply type this in the command prompt window.
Adb push path/to/rom.zip /sdcard
Eg - adb push c:/user/user/Downloads/cm11.zip /sdcard
Now this should push the .zip to your internal memory, in the recovery mode (after adb has down its job). Simply wipe data and install the .zip c:
Your device should work.

[ROOT] Coolad Modena 2 / Sky 2 (E502)

Recently, I successfully ported TWRP from Coolpad Note 3 Lite to Modena 2. After testing, everything works fine, on both devices. Since this device has locked bootloader, we need to bypass this by enabling fastmmi mode and factory mode to enable temporary root access and make initial backup and flashing. So, let´s get started.
Remember to read this post carefully. I am not resposible for any damage to your device. If you brick your device while flashing the TWRP you can *almost* always recover it using SP Flash Tool and YGDP Tool
IF YOU ACCIDENTALY BRICK YOUR DEVICE AND YOU WANT TO FLASH IT VIA SPFT, DO NOT FORMAT THE DEVICE IN SPFT!!! If you´ll format partitions in TWRP, that´s fine, but don´t do FORMAT ALL + DOWNLOAD or FIRMWARE UPGRADE! This will brick your device, like mine This tutorial will not (hopefully) brick it, but just in case something goes wrong, now you know what not to do.
Preparing the environment on your computer
Windows
Download ADB and Fastboot from this link
Open it
Install it system-wide
Also, install the drivers
GNU/Linux (Ubuntu / Debian based distros)
Open terminal
Type "sudo apt install adb fastboot libusb-dev" without the quotes (")
Other things, that are required
Since the file size of the recovery exceeds the maximum 8MB of allowed upload size, you can download it from DataFileHost.
Preparing the device
First, you need to remeber that this could render your device unbootable and will void warranty.
Enable developer options
Go to Settings -> About phone
Tap the build number 7 times
Go back
Go to Developer options
Make sure OEM unlocking and USB Debugging is enabled
Enabling factory mode
Open dialer app
Dial *#9527*#
Click on "DM"
You will be prompted to insert RD personnel password. Enter: 54321
Click cancel button
DM button should change colour to RED
Exit the app by clicking home button
Installing and setting up openrp app
Open terminal / command prompt
Type:
Code:
adb start-server
Type:
Code:
adb devices
Now, click on your phone allow debugging and make sure to tick the radiobutton to remember / always trust this computer
Type:
Code:
adb install
Press spacebar after the install word and drag and drop the downloaded openrp.apk file to terminal
Hit enter
After it´s done, type:
Code:
adb shell monkey -p com.yulong.openrp -v 500
Now, the fun part. ROOTING the device
But before that, BACKUP
Now, keep your phone plugged in, and do a normal reboot by pressing and holding the power button and clicking reboot
When it vibrates, press and hold the Volume down key (Vol-)
You will see these lines on the screen:
Code:
=>[Factory mode]
Code:
=>VolumeDown key is pressed
Code:
=>[fastmmi mode]
After that, you´ll see the LED turns green and "Up Down" text on the screen
Now, back to your computer, type in the command prompt
Code:
adb devices
You should see XXXXXXXXXXXXXX device listed (where XXXX... is the serial number)
Type in the command prompt:
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name/recovery of=/storage/self/primary/stock_recovery.img
and
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name/boot of=/storage/self/primary/stock_bootimg.img
Flashing the TWRP Image
Type in the command prompt:
Code:
adb push (drag and drop the recovery image file here, like you did with the openrp.apk file) /storage/self/primary/
Type:
Code:
adb reboot
Press and hold VolumeDown key (Vol-) to boot to fastmmi mode
Type:
Code:
adb shell dd if=/storage/self/primary/recovery_twrp_e502.img of=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name/recovery
Type
Code:
adb reboot
Press and hold the VolumeUp key (Vol+) to boot into recovery. If you see white screen with "Recovery" text in it, congrats. Everything is working. If not, try again.
Flashing the SuperSU package
Download the zip from SuperSU website
Copy the zip over to the device, with TWRP running
In TWRP, click install, click the zip and confirm the installation.
Factory reset is not required, but you should at least wipe the cache

Hi i have a problem here. at the part to drag and drop the openrp file. When i have downloaded the file a drag it and drop it after the install word. The problem is that if I want to drop it there it will do nothing, nothing there shows or anything. Please respond.

I guess you can type the path to the installation file instead of dragging.

Hello,
Very helpful thread, my coolpad Modena 2 (E502) is now rooted.
Don't forget to disable the factory mode once everything is done, or you won't be able to access the storage to usb anymore.
Thanks.

helo, can i get help, when i try to install openrp on abd and fastboot, it printed this message "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE]"

Hello,
If I recall correctly (I don't have the phone anymore, just touched it once to root it at the time), you basically undo the "Enabling factory mode" step.
I think if you dial the number, you'll be back in the menu where you have the option to disable the factory mode.
Factory mode should be disabled when 'DM' is green.
Good luck

very good

Need Custom rom please

Hello, could you resend the twrp recovery file for this phone again?. old links not work!.

Backup with Smart Switch a black screen Galaxy S5 (Unauthorised device in adb - Root - Usb debugging ON - Unlock patern OK - Recovery accessible)

Hi,
I think I've already explain everything in title.
My Galaxy S5 on Android 8 (I think) as her screen broken (black)
Before that it already wokr badly and slowly. I bought a new phone but this one break just before I can transfer data.
I can unlock the patern (I know that because the volume + buton react)
Smart switch say that the phone is locked (even it's not true). Tested on 2 PC
The phone appear in Windows but no file or folder appear.
In adb the device is shown unauthorised and even if I click where the message to unlock should be, notihng append.
The phone is connected on Wifi, apparear in Google Find it but not Samsung find it...
I think that it's already to much information...
My question : how can I do the unlock the phone and do a smart switch backup ? or an other way to transfer data.
Regards
James

The Samsung Galaxy S10 comes with a USB OTG adapter. OTG stands for "On the Go" and is used for the connection between smartphone and USB stick / cable. Connect this USB OTG adapter to the USB Type C port of your Samsung, then connect the USB OTG adapter with USB Type C port of your computer.
You should see the data stored on your Samsung.

It's an S5. But I have a OTG adaptor for it but my new phone A52s doesn't connect to the S5.
I try with a S7 but I can see that there is a lot autorisation to give on the old phone which will be very hard to do with a black screen.

If ADB is unauthorized, the only way to back up any data would be via a custom recovery. That would require that the device have an unlocked bootloader though

ADB authorised is not require for Smart Switch... I think
And my device have access to recovery and it's root so the bootloader is unlocked.

So then flash a custom recovery, and then enter it. That will either give you MTP access to the files and folders, or ADB should also be enabled - and does not require authorization

purehaps you have forget that the screen is broken. I can't access the phone for complicated manipulation. I'have already have TWRP installed on it but without a view it's impossible to manipulate it. Also, it's not normal that the phone are not viewed on windows or is shown locked on smart switch.
In recovery mode, the phone isn't show on windows also. Find the MTP option in TWRP without a screen view is very diffucult and dangerous, (the wipe option are near)
If I can access file on phone I will be able to view screenshot and configure it.

1. No, I didn't forget that the screen is broken
2. I wasn't telling you to press anything in TWRP. When it's in TWRP and you plug it in, you will either get MTP and/or ADB access automatically
3. Yes, it is perfectly normal to not have access to the files and folders in Windows, when it's powered on normally. There's a popup on the phone that you have to tap in order to grant permission to the folders and files. That's why it shows up as an empty device when you plug it in while in normal mode

Ok excuse me.
Hum when I'm in recovery mode, my phone doesn't appear in Widows. And in adb, I haven't access to all folder. Data is empty for exemple.
For 3. Ok, I don't remember this notification. But I'm shure that I'have already use this phone with my PC. If I wasn't able to ring it on Whastapp, I will think that the phone doesn't works anymore at all. But it's not the case.

ADB commands work by default while in TWRP, you can back up almost anything that your TWRP version allows through your PC using ADB commands, TWRP will serve as intermediary, but you will not go to operate over your broken screen device but through your ADB/fastboot CMD.

In normal mode I can unlock the phone but after that even if I click where the message should appear it doesn't do anything.
In adb I can't access a backup command (and if I can do this, It will not the easyer way to transfer my sms.)

I have some old other phones to see some message exemple and know where to clic but it doesn't works. I have install Vyzor, It asks me a permission but even if I tap in the right of the screen the permission doesn't works.
I also try to transfert a new adb key but I think it doesn't work because Wyzor still ask permission.

There is no backup command in ADB that you can use. And the reason that you can't access /data is because that requires going into TWRP settings and mounting the system partition.
What you can do in TWRP is to adb pull all of the files and folders off of the internal storage

Other thing, I can phone my phone with Whatsapp but I can't click to hang off.

ADB backup is not to operate while your device is on, but it is to operate while your device is in TWRP mode.
TWRP has integrated by default the ADB options not need to authorize through your broken screen because it is already authorized.
Messages as an app user (the same with root or system user) is part of userdata, you want to back up userdata to restore it after in other device or a scenery where your device get repaired, no?
I'll give you an example, you have to use this command, create a folder on a convenient place onto your PC directory, something like "BACKUP", assuming that you set it up correctly the environment for ADB/fastboot to use it along all of your system, you should open from this newly created folder an CMD (I use the new Windows terminal for easy/comfortable results) then type from the terminal adb shell twrp backup userdata , you'll have the userdata backed up in your PC in less of 2 minutes depending on the size of the partition, and so on successively.
What you can back up from TWRP depends on the restrictions from your TWRP version, you should back up the normal that you can see from the TWRP screen and even more but for example if your TWRP have some issues mounting vendor partition of course the ADB commands can't do the job for this specific partition, but anyway you have a lot you can do through it.

1. The command depends on what the mount point for your internal storage is. The command would be "adb pull /(mount point)" , so it could be:
adb pull /sdcard
adb pull /storage0/sdcard
Or several others
2. No, you can't connect with Smart Switch without allowing permission on the popup box on the phone screen

TWRP has integrated by default the ADB options not need to authorize through your broken screen because it is already authorized.
Messages as an app user (the same with root or system user) is part of userdata, you want to back up userdata to restore it after in other device or a scenery where your device get repaired, no?
I'll give you an example, you have to use this command, create a folder on a convenient place onto your PC directory, something like "BACKUP", assuming that you set it up correctly the environment for ADB/fastboot to use it along all of your system, you should open from this newly created folder an CMD (I use the new Windows terminal for easy/comfortable results) then type from the terminal adb shell twrp backup userdata , you'll have the userdata backed up in your PC in less of 2 minutes depending on the size of the partition, and so on successively.
What you can back up from TWRP depends on the restrictions from your TWRP version, you should back up the normal that you can see from the TWRP screen and even more but for example if your TWRP have some issues mounting vendor partition of course the ADB commands can't do the job for this specific partition, but anyway you have a lot you can do through it.

I try this...
C:\Users\James-23\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools>adb shell twrp backup userdata
TWRP does not appear to be running. Waiting for TWRP to start . . .
Press CTRL + C to quit.
^C
C:\Users\James-23\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools>adb shell twrp plat-form-tools userdata

I'm not sure I understand your command. But it return a result. "Backup" is the name of a folder ? or it's a commande for twrp ?
Is there a way to be sure that twrp is installed (with all my phone, sometime, I don't remember what is on it. The thing it's sure it that this phone is root because I use root function with some app but perhaps just with magisk or Super SU.
