Yep. For four weeks.

People would write in and tell them that they were ending up with unrootable phones, and would get helpful comments back from the Unlockr that they "must be doing something wrong.".

After they were told explicitly what was going on, they never even owned up to their mistake.

I guess they didn't know what a MD5 checksum is.

Beauty!!! Good work!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larf2k:
Great work, much appreciated. Although, after reading lots and following the forums, I have a few questions:

With the one-click root app listed in the wiki, will I still need to unlock the bootloader to flash a new radio? I'm hearing great things about updating to the new radio but it's also the riskiest thing you can do with the nexus in terms of bricking danger. I'm not a TOTAL newb: I did root and mod my old G1 but the N1 is different in that it cost $350. So the stakes have changed.

I know that it's possible to one-click root and still load CM6, which I plan on doing, but in the CM6 installation instructions, it lists "update radio...if necessary." How do I even know what radio I have or if it needs updating? This all of course without unlocking bootloader, hopefully. I want to keep my warranty; I paid top dollar for this thing!

Put simply, can I update my radio successfully and safely with the "one-click root" method, and if I can't, can I load CM6 without updating the radio.

Thanks so much in advance, and I apologize for being so gun-shy.

By the way, my about phone stats:

Build: FRF91

Kernel 2.6.32.9-27227

Android version 2.2

how to root N1

hello i need some help how to root my N1
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yumcax:
Don't worry, it's easy =].

Download One-Click Root and drop the .apk on your SD card, or email it to yourself. If you go the SD card route, you will need to install ASTRO File Manager to navigate to the root application. Install One-Click Root and run it, it takes about a second and will install BusyBox and Superuser IIRC.

Congrats, you have rooted your phone! You can now install apps that need root, such as Titanium Backup, SetCPU, and many others. Try searching the market for 'Nexus One Root' and check out here for a great list of root apps.

Install ROM Manager from the Market if you want to try out other ROMs. Remember to always make backups!

Have fun!

I am now using ROM Manager premium but still cant get a new ROM installed.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
The N1 is different from most phones. S-OFF is not needed to make the necessary changes to flash the bootloader, radio, recovery, or the system partition. So continue on with the next steps (which is to probably flash a custom recovery, then boot into that and flash CM and gapps).

If you stick with ROM Manager, flash the custom recovery, and then reboot and make sure it is there... then boot back into Android and use ROM Manager to flash CM (make sure you check the gapps box).

Hi all,

I folowed both part 1 and part 2 to root and unlock nand on my evo. I loaded the freshevo 0.3 ROM and applied the 4g fix from flipz. Now, my Evo lasts about 5 hours in standby before the battery is dead.

My Evo used to last most of the day before I rooted it. Has anyone experienced similar issues?

Thanks,

Rayden1000
[EVO 4G General] Aridon:
Did you flash the new radio?

Did you leave 4g on?

Gps?

Bluetooth?

What are your sync settings for social network, weather, news?

We need more info than my battery sucks.
[EVO 4G General] rayden1000:
Flashed the new radio.

4G is on - as before rooting.

Bluetooth, WiFi is off.

GPS is on - as before rooting.

Syncing is at 4 hour intervals.

Exchange is "as items arrive" - as before rooting.

I know that everyone complains about the battery on the EVO, but my phone is dead after just a few hours of non-usage.

My Up time and Awake time are almost the same, so I think something is preventing the phone from sleeping. An hour ago I went to some setting that listed which app is using what percentage of the battery. I can't remember where I went to check that now, and it wasn't the stock battery settings app. It said that HTC Sense is using 97%.

Thanks,

Rayden1000
[EVO 4G General] Aridon:
Try this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=700601&highlight=100%+time

Also you might have a bug with 4g where it is constantly connecting or trying to connect. See if the fix above works. If not try damagecontrols rom and see if its any better. Or you can try disabling 4g and see if there us a huge huge huge gain.

I do know that right now some of the custom roms have had 4g issues. I'm not in a 4g area so its hard for me to test.
[EVO 4G General] rayden1000:
Thanks Aridon,

I already checked out that thread, my phone is set to CDMA auto.

And yes, I did have the 4g bug when I unlocked NAND through method 2. I found the fix that flipz posted and that has fixed the 4g issue. I also flashed the freshevo 0.3 rom that has the 4g fix built in.

I will try flashing the 4g fix again right now, but does anyone have any other suggestions? It seems that battery performance decrease is a common issue after flashing custom ROM's.

Rayden1000
[EVO 4G General] Aridon:
You should consider doing the steps in that thread regardless if what it shows. The hero had a display bug in that regard for some and perhaps so do some evo. Seems odd but there are differences because when you start playing with kernels it will boot on 002 devices but not others so there are differences.

I'd do it, set it and reboot. Don't go back in to see if it changed just start a new battery test And check for improvement
[EVO 4G General] chamelieon:
turn off 4g, my evo has everything yours does! but end of the day i get home and still have over 50% battery life left! if you have 4g on it drains the crap out of battery. only turn it on when your going to use it!
[EVO 4G General] rayden1000:
I do understand that 4g decreases the battery life significantly. What I am trying to say in this thread is that after I rooted and unlocked nand on my evo, the battery life is MUCH MUCH worse then before rooting. My phone's battery now goes from 100 to 0 in about 4 hours - while I am not using it at all.

I am just trying to figure out what process is running all the time and prevents the phone from going to sleep.

It works and I will post a screenie tomorrow of the proof.
[EVO 4G General] rayden1000:
Whatever it was, installing Damagecontrol 3.1.2 ROM "appears" to have fixed the issue. My phone has been in standby for about an hour and I have 93% battery left. I will leave it alone for the night and will post the battery status tomorrow morning.

[EVO 4G General] rayden1000:
Installed overclock widget, set it to run at around 247 mhz at all times - same result. Evo battery is dead after about 4-5 hours. Does anyone have the original ROM for the Evo? I tried running the RUUxxxxx.exe files, but they all fail - probably due to me rooting and unlocking nand, therefore modifying the file system.

Rayden1000
[EVO 4G General] myth_mn:
I've been running Fresh 0.3 for a few days now and haven't seen a problem. Have you tried getting a task manager and making sure there isn't a program running in the background causing all this? Also, is your phone hot... if it is, it means you go something taking up some major cpu time.

I had a similar issue with my Hero, the cause was it was trying to sync the calendar over and over non-stop. You should look at your account syncing also, there could be a problem there.
[EVO 4G General] mpa4712:
Sounds as if you have something running in the background that is killing your battery. When you are flashing your roms, are you doing a wipe first or just flashing over whatever you had before?
[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
I don't see how you're running overclock widget and getting bad battery life. Download Advanced Task Killer and kill those tasks.
[EVO 4G General] mistersquirrle:
I also had an issue like that after installing some ROM (I forget now what one, since it was a while ago) and my battery died over night while I was sleeping. I don't really know how (if I did) fix it, but I wiped everything, factory/data/dalvik/battery stats (whatever that is) all those options, then installed a new ROM and it seemed to work fine.

As for the overclock widget, I downloaded that and tried to use it, but it didn't seem like it worked. It just didn't seem to stick and I didn't really see any increase (maybe even a decrease) in battery life. Probably the best thing that you could do is get a task killer and see if there is something running that needs to be killed. The awake time shouldn't be anywhere near the uptime
