I've had this problem too. No telling what it's really partitioned as. Though if you do the parted command while in terminal, I bet it'll show up at ext4.

blank screen after reboot

Hi guys, I hope you can help :eek: - I tried to do as much research as possible before rooting my nexus one (as i'm a noob) but came across something I hadn't read about: ended up with a blank screen after doing adb reboot recovery. Here are the steps I took:

1) unlocked bootloader

2) copied recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img to my SDK folder

3) with device in bootloader mode, typed fastboot flash recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img

4) with device booted normally, typed adb reboot recovery

5) devices shuts down as expected, starts with logo and unlocked symbol, but instead of going to the image screen to allow me to flash, the screen goes and stays blank

At this point adb devices shows serial number and recovery. If I type adb reboot recovery i get 'error: closed'. Initially I managed to turn off somehow and turn on into boot loader - after rebooting, the phone started normally. Relief. I then thought I'd have another go - same problem, but this time the screen stays blank - still showing the device but I can't get it to boot into bootloader to initiate a normal reboot. I'm tempted to pull the battery but thought I should get your advice first?

Any help appreciated! Where did I go wrong?
[Nexus One Android Development] shotta35:
Guess you didn't do it riht or something, it should be:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img

So try that out and see. You're telling fastboot that you are flashing recovery in that setup as it could aslo be:

fastboot flash radio radio.img

or whatever. So make sure you are reading right.

@rob_2010

did you check this?

Check if there's no /system/etc/install-recovery.sh script if you keep booting back in the stock recovery

hi, i recently sold my desire for a N1.

on my desire i used clockworkmod recovery because it manage to do nand with ext.

Since i have a n1 now and everyone is using amonra recovery i figured it will be possible now to do nand+ext backups. but apparentely it isn't.

can't restore my nand+ext on amonra 1.8.0.1 ....

it always tells me to use nandroid-mobile.sh in adb. Well i tried, but no luck in restoring my nand+ext backups.

What am i doing wrong? please help me, i searched everything on the xda thread, but wasn't lucking...

is there a fix for that? or do i have to switch again to clockworkmod recovery?????

many thanks for your help

Help

Here is what I did

received my new N1

unlocked bootloader

installed Amon recovery 1.7.0.1

deleted /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

Now I can go into the Amon recovery by typing adb reboot recovery. But I do not see recovery tab under the menu bootloader. Any solution for that

Hi, So i tried to nand backup again and afterwards move reecovery log to sd.

Before i restored the backup, i wiped everything: Data, Cache, Dalvic-C, Sd-ext....

The restore seems to work, but after the phone booted, there are no apps at all, only the ones in system/app/ but none of mine...

Attached is the recovery.log

I tried to read it, but further than that i can not use it to solve my problem.

So if please someone can take a look at it and help me, that be fantastic.

Many thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] Amon_RA:
Weird, everything seems to be restored just fine.

Which rom are you running and where does it store its apps on your ext partition?

Which a2sd method are you using?

I have a feeling that your current rom didn't store apps in /sd-ext/app and /sd-ext/app-private but somewhere else on your /sd-ext hence it didn't get back-upped and it got erased when you did a wipe sd-ext!

The apps you see in /sd-ext are probably old leftovers from a previous rom.

This recovery ONLY backups /sd-ext/app and /sd-ext/app-private, other stuff on your /sd-ext/ will NOT get back-upped!

To conclude : the recovery restore worked just fine, please have a look at how your rom handles apps on sd.

Let us know...
[Nexus One Android Development] emjaymj:
I unlocked the bootloader and appeared to flash the recovery properly, but when I try and boot the recovery image, the screen just goes dark. It's apparently running anyways, as the USB will connect if it's connected to my computer, and I can hit the trackball to boot into Android, but I can't SEE anything, and so it's kind of useless at this point.

I tried clockwork's mod afterwards and it's having the exact same issue. Not quite sure what's going on...
[Nexus One Android Development] gaeng4665:
I'm on kangorama 1.0

But the apps2sd in his rom didn't work for me, so i flashed darktremors rc2. I'm running dalvic-cache on sd as well.

seems to be unlocked and rooted , but its not and its not accepting any recovery image !

I downloaded this stock rom and put it in the root of the memory card and booted in bootloader and chose bootloader and it started to search my memory card for the file and it found it and i accpted to update it and then restarted it and it worked fine

[Nexus One Android Development] emjaymj:
Bah, you're right. That kind of ticks me off, I didn't even know HTC was moving from AMOLED to SLCD. I just got this N1 from the latest batch the developer store is offering (pounced on it on day one as I wasn't sure when they were going out of stock again) but they should really mention this in the specs! Not too happy with the fact I paid the same amount for an inferior screen. Although seeing as I hadn't even noticed, I guess it's not the biggest deal heh, but it's just the principle...

So uh... I know this thread is dedicated to Amon's recovery specifically, but all the seemingly decent ones I come across are for the AMOLED screen only. Any suggestions?

And do you have any plans to support this in the future Amon?
[Nexus One Android Development] landstander:
Try version 1.8.0.1... it's supposed to support SLCD screens. Amon_RA mentioned in the same thread that an official update will be posted here "soon".
[Nexus One Android Development] :
Sorry if asked before, but 116 pages is a lot.

I have Rom Mgr and ClockworkMod and have been flashing between Amon and CWM recoveries. I put Amon 1.7.0.1 was put on phone before Rom Mgr, thru ADB.

I just tried to install Amon 1.8.0 thru Terminal. I flashed Amon thru RM first so it was the active recovery. It installs and comes up ready to run. I even flashed back to CWM and then to Amon, all OK. A day later I try it, and it is back to 1.7.0.1.

I have no idea what is going on.
[Nexus One Android Development] emjaymj:
Thanks so much, 1.8.0.1 is working golden. I was worried for a bit I had voided my warranty for nothing :D Can't wait for the "official" update lol

Help - I Can't boot into Recovery

I could really use some help. I have unlocked and rooted my Nexus One and flashed a recovery ROM with confirmation that sending recovery was OKAY and writing recovery was OKAY. When I try to boot into recovery I get a white triangle with a yellow exclamation mark in the center and a green Android. The last line of the green text that appears before the white triangle appears is "no image or wrong image". In the /system/etc folder I do have the install-recovery.sh file. Do I need to delete this and if so how as it is a ready only file.

Any help for a noob would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

[Q] Fastboot problems

I rooted my Nexus One thru the one-click method, but it seems I will have to unlock the bootloader and install Superboot to try out other ROMs.

This is where I am stuck.

The first thing I tried was just installing the recovery without unlocking the bootloader, but I got the message

flash_image: Not Found

I assume this has to do with having a locked bootloader, so I tried to unlock it with fastboot. I'm stuck!

I boot my phone into fastboot, plug it into my computer. Then, I cd to the sdk tools folder. However, $fastboot devices gives me

fastboot: command not found

What am I doing wrong? is there a way to unlock the boot loader w/o using fastboot?
[Nexus One Android Development] nicdub:
U don't need to unlock your bootloader to get this recovery and try different ROMs. Either try reading some if the stickies in here or use clockwork to door for u.

[Nexus One Android Development] efrant:
Install ROM Manager from the market. That will allow you to flash a custom recovery (now that you have root). From there, you can flash custom ROMs. No need to unlock your bootloader.

As an aside, if you want to unlock. Just plug your phone into your computer, open a command prompt in the /android-sdk-windows/tools directory and type: fastboot oem unlock

If you want to flash a custom recovery outside of ROM Manager, the command is flash_image recovery [path/name-of-file], but you will first need to put flash_image into the tools directory.

Way to go in to RECOVERY

Hi

I have an non funcional power on of button.

Please help me to go in to recovery mode.

Please help.
[Nexus One Android Development] liqn7:
Firstly I'm assuming you have root..

1) Use terminal emulator and type in:

su

reboot recovery

OR

2) Download an app from the market called Quick boot - there is a menu where you can reboot into recovery etc.

:)
[Nexus One Android Development] kostrzu:
Yes but I need to go from bootloader...
[Nexus One Android Development] liqn7:
Then you're in trouble... :(

You should never try to flash anything without a functional recovery.
[Nexus One Android Development] kostrzu:
So there is no other way to go in to recovery from bootloader?

With non functional power on switch?

Or maybe is a way to flash new image from fastboot ADB comands.?

What update.zip (what image) i should use?

TXH
[Nexus One Android Development] liqn7:
No, there is no way.

ADB will not work if the phone is not booted up.

You'll need to send it back and try to get it repaired. :(

recovery doesn't boot

I've had no problem running the commands to get this set up. But the recovery doesn't boot.

Did:

D:\android-sdk-windows-1.6_r1\tools>fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.5.3.img
sending 'recovery' (3550 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... OKAY

Then power off and boot to flashboot again. Pick bootloader, recovery. See the quad-color nexus X and lock icon, then after just a moment, the android mascot with an exclamation point in a triangle. At this point I can't do anything besides pull the battery.

I've checked the md5 of my .img and it's right. I don't know how to get a recovery.log to post.

[Nexus One Android Development] 1wayjonny:
Got my nexus one and did this within 15 minutes of getting it. Thanks much for the hard work.

I think it would be great that one the first page there should be instructions on how to get into the recovery menu only for people with fast eyes ...lol

When i flashed it and rebooted I expected the RA - Recovery 1.5.3, what really happens is that you go to fastboot then select RECOVERY from there...

I am just use to my G1 recovery popin up when hold the button, not going through FASTBOOT/HBOOT then selecting the RECOVERY menu.

I fixed it right away after a few seconds of "why did this not this work" but from G1 users its an extra step and comes down to getting used to the new menus.

Again I cant thank you enough for the hard work and love having all the features my G1 has on day one of my Nexus
[Nexus One Android Development] arantius:
Wow. That was it. Had a 1.6 sdk sitting around, and I guess fastboot has changed since. Made sure I downloaded the latest possible tools, and now I'm in. Thanks! I wouldn't have thought to try it, with no error message from fastboot, without this suggestion.

How to put Nexus One in Recovery Mode?

1. Connect the Nexus One to your PC/Mac and turn it off.

2. Hold the volume down button and hit the power button (while holding the side volume down button). You should see the bootloader screen (with the word unlocked on top).

3. Hit the volume button twice to select the recovery option. Now hit the Power button to enter the recovery mode!
[Nexus One Android Development] Amon_RA:
Did you unlock the bootloader? Did you check the md5sum?
[Nexus One Android Development] Amon_RA:

I tried from a different computer and it all worked as planned.

I hope Amon_RA will update the psfreedom on his recovery with the new Hermes patches because the psfmod doesn't have it, in fact, the Psfmod recovery, works only if a disc is inserted in the ps3; the Amon_RA recovery has the possibility to play backups without disc! The compatibility is very low but for people that have a no working drive it's a good option!

i am now attempting to flash this recovery image using the terminal app inside the phone. i am entering these commands as specified on post #1

[Nexus One Android Development] efrant:
You can flash it using ROM Manager. But once you do, you have to delete )or nename) these two files:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

or else it will always revert to the stock recovery.

If you want to use flash_image, you have to download that utility (it's not already on your device unless you put it there)...
