The Fastboot and ADB drivers need to be on your computer... they should be in the Android SDK Tools.

You can try flashing the pre-made partition schemes found here, but I am unsure if your phone will accept them if you have never installed Blackrose before? Also, you need to have Fastboot installed on your computer to flash them. If you are installing a JB rom use the 260/8/168 one.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
I would highly recommend 4EXT. It's a tried and tested recovery and easy to use as well.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 838Joel:
I agree, but there is not reason at first that TWRP recovery should not work... ie. there is no memory space constraint or anything like this?

Can I just (Because I already have the TWRP recovery on) flash the blackrose Bootloader without flashing the zipped recovery suggested "go35.lol" and give a try to see if all work?

So basicaly just flash "hboot_blackrose.nb0"

Or I'm totally wrong, and will break something doing so?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
So you are using CM7 on the modified JB/ICS HBOOT is it? You must be having very less Data space right? How is general usage?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c2med:
Just my opinion, but I would use the 150/10/276 for CM7 to give yourself more space for apps. This page is linked in my original guide under Blackrose, but again here it is:

a2sd install doesn't seem to work

I was using Texasice's Evervolv rom on my N1, when the JB version came out, I found it to be very unstable. So I moved back to CM7.2. Last week I found VJs CM10.1 based ROM at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2096747. I downloaded and flashed it. (ClockworkMod recovery, CM10.1 4.7v VJ (gpps included), BlackRose hboot (260, 8, 168)). I have an 8GB (class 2) micro sd card. I formatted it and created a 2GB ext partition (0 swap). Once the phone booted up after the ROM was flashed, I ran a2sd install from the Terminal.

After the phone rebooted I expected to have a bit more space, but the apps were still installed on my (168MB) phone memory and since none of the gapps were actually present along with the ROM, with just 5 apps, I didn't have space to install more. I ran a2sd install again but in no vain. every time it asks me restart the phone. I am guessing the a2sd flag isn't getting set correctly.

Anyone faced this issue? Any pointers on what could be wrong here?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
You will have the same space displayed (168 MB). However, note that when you install apps, the size will not increase by much. If you had given Y and N and Y as options during a2sd install, the dalvik-cache would be moved to the sd-ext partition. So overall, you should have enough space.

Run a2sd immediately after installing your ROM. Do not install any applications before installing a2sd. And just make sure that your apps are not downloaded and installed in the background while installing a2sd.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bharath144:
Thanks for the response. I will remember to run a2sd install before I do anything else. Couple of things though,

1. How is 'a2sd xdata' different from 'a2sd install'?

2. I am guessing that I need to have a faster micro sd card, was the 2GB I created as EXT partition sufficient or allocating more (say if I have a 16GB card) have any effect.

-Bharath
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
While a2sd install will move your apps on /data/app to /sd-ext/app and then remove them from /data/app to free up space, xdata would mount your /data on top of your sd-ext/data. So in this case, you will see the total size of your sd-ext reflected in your manage apps section.

But this case slows your app load, responsiveness etc and is only recommended if you have a fast SD card. I see yours is a Class 2 and would not recommend it in your case. Try class 6 or 10.

To answer your second question, my suggestion is that 1 to 1.5 GB would be more than sufficient for your app needs.

What is your custom partition size? You might wanna set it to 260/10/166

Have you partitioned your sd card and do you have a ext4 partition?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyphoenix:
I had the same issue too, but I reverse mounted instead, and now it works like it should. Make sure if you reverse mount you don't have anything to move to SD because if you do you are telling the system to actually move everything from the SD to the tiny system space. You either reverse mount, or move apps, data, and cache (leave dalvik on system), but don't do both.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modestos:
thanks for the quick answer.

what do you mean by reverse mount. how do I perform this ?

thx.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyphoenix:
If you are using mount2sd from the OP, and you follow the link, it will explain it better, but what reverse mount does is makes the phone think the internal is the SD, and the SD is the internal. It literally reverses the two, so if you reverse mount the SD card you don't have to do anything else since your SD card is partitioned to 1GB (or whatever you made it), and everything will fit. I actually use the APK instead of the flashable zip. It's easier for me. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1342387
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modestos:
Indeed this actually works perfectly.

Are you using this in a permanent fashion. I mean, are you using the reverse mount permanently?

I realized that when in reversed mount, system settings have problems. For example developer tools fcs.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyphoenix:
Yes I use it as a permanent setting. It may be your ROM. What one are you using? I haven't had any FC.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modestos:
I use the VJs 4.2.2 for Nexus one.

When not in reverse mode, developer tools work fine.

But obviously then I have to uncheck reverse, reboot, do changes, reverse back.

Which is really annoying.

Need help

Hey guys, long time lurker. I have flashed ROMs onto other phones before, but never had to use SDK/ADB/fastboot to do it(just to give you an idea of my level of expertise or lack thereof).

I just picked up a N1, figured i wanted JB, and followed the directions exactly from the OP only to get got stuck at Blackrose install.

I get the error message "more than one device and emulator" error message.

I did my research on this error message, and have already tried doing all of these:

1) USB Debugging is enabled

2) typed "adb kill-server", and then "adb devices", which gave me this message:

"List of devices attached

HT0C9P800876 device

emulator-5554 offline"

3) Installed drivers in SDK

4) I do not have a program called "bluestacks" installed or running in the background. To my knowledge, I have no other emulators installed, and closed SDK while trying to install Blackrose and it still didn't work.

What am I doing wrong?

The only thing I could think of so far is that I was able to do all the steps prior to blackrose without using adb or fastboot. Could that be causing a problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have spent hours trying to trouble shoot this error, and am on the verge of pulling my hair out.

Uninstall A2SD before mount2sd

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ucf15:
Try adding the -d switch when issuing the adb command. It directs the adb commands only to the connected USB device. E.g.,

adb -d adb_command

Alternatively, you can use the -s switch to direct the commands to a specific device. In your case, using the device name you provided, it would be:

adb -s HT0C9P800876 adb_command

There is probably a program listening on port 5554 and adb is recognizing it as an emulator because they usually listen on ports around 5554. Find out what by issuing the following on the command line:

netstat -o -n -a | findstr 0.0:5554

You will get the pid for the process, then identify the process in 'Task Manager' using tha pid and kill it.

Or use TCPView and look for the process listening on port 5554, then kill it.

Just as a note, it might be listening on port 5555, so check that one, too.

Restore mounts2sd sd-ext after rom reflash

First off, thanks for the great post - I'd be lost without it.

Yesterday I successfully installed "CM 10, JB 4.2.1 by vijendrahs". I also installed mounts2sd and used it's "reverse mount" option to put all my app data etc onto sd-ext.

Today, I see that there is a newer version of vijendrahs's CM 10 rom. So I boot into recovery and flash the new ROM zip. This works fine, but when the CM boots up, it doesn't have any apps or config. I'm guessing this is because the init.d script that mounts2sd installed in the old rom is no longer there?

So I went ahead and restored my backup wondering how I can update the ROM and still have all the stuff in sd-ext work? Is there something I can do with fastboot before booting the newly flashed ROM?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
You can use Titanium Backup to backup / restore your apps after flashing the ROM.Your apps will be backed up in your SD card and after installing the new ROM, you can install Titanium Backup and restore all other apps from it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moosepiss:
Okay thanks. I didn't try this, but I'm sceptical, as the new ROM will not have mounted sd-ext on the SD card prior to Titanium doing the app restore (so I'd expect it to attempt to restore the apps into the phone's internal memory). Perhaps Titanium has built in support for backing up and installing init.d scripts - in which case it would probably work.

I ultimately ended up wiping my SD and reinstalling the CM 10 (vijendrahs) ROM from scratch. Except this time I used A2SD (rather than monts2sd). Vijendrahs' ROM has built-in support for A2SD. As such, it has an init.d script already installed that will mount sd-ext. I'm hoping the next time I flash a newer version, I'll be able to simply reflash and not worry about having to restore apps.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
Nopes, I don't think you can upgrade VJ's ROMs that way. You will have to do a full wipe of cache,data and sd-ext before you go for your upgrade.

What I would suggest is, flash on your new ROM, install the built in A2SD and then install Titanium thereby allowing you to restore apps.

I haven't tried it, but logically, I think this should work.

When you installed BlackRose, your recovery would have gone as well. c2med - he made this guide btw :) - has suggested what to do here as well: I hope you took a backup of the 4EXT Recovery img and copied it to your system.
