[Nexus One General] ap3604:
2 things I am worried about:

1. Before I rooted and changed the radio, I could check for system updates and it would say I could to update to 2.2.1 ota... Now, after I unrooted and got it back to stock 2.2, I would check system updates and it no longer gave me the option to update to 2.2.1 (I had to manually do this)

This worries me since I don't want to miss out on all future ota updates if my radio has been screwed up when I flashed one earlier.

2. Radio has been slower since upgrading manually to 2.2.1 but still having the old radio in place.

Isn't the each radio optomized for the particular android build?

Also what about rooting causes the phone not to get the new ota update? Is it the changing of its radio?
[Nexus One General] jbr7rr:
What country is yor phone? And with what build did it came after warranty?

My guess the radio is just part of the update (if you flashed a stock rom)

I recently bought my nexus in holland it came with FRF91

And 5.08.00.04 radio so :)
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Radio isn't per build.

There was a major change to adjust to Froyo in 4.06 radio, all the above are compatible with it, all the 4.04 and below are compatible with Eclair and not suitable for Froyo.

2.2.1 includes 5.08 anyway. Your not getting OTA doesn't have anything to do with radio.

You can flash any radio you want when you're rooted, using the guide found in Wiki.
[Nexus One General] ChongoDroid:
Yeah I've benefited from newer radios. :) Dont sweat it your rooted, this is good.
[Nexus One General] liam.lah:
It's the rom and recovery.

I really would not get stressed out about this. Worst case scenario is that you have to come on xda every so often and flash the update manually.
[Nexus One General] charnsingh_online:
LOL, if ur on CM6 u already have 2.2.1 and worrying about future otas, root user update to latest version normally before unrooted people and u should have to problem updating, if u want to revert back to the old boring stock version just flash one of the shipping roms in bootloader by renaming them to PASSIMG.zip
[Nexus One General] arkavat:
1) From where did you upgrade to 2.2.1?

if you upgraded from rom manager or any ROM given by developer, they remove the radio and provide it as a separate update file.

http://www.tap3w0rm.com/hosted/android/radios/nexus-1/FRF50-radio-4_06_00_12_7.zip is the update for radio you want.

2) However, Radio update is not what you want. "Recovery" is what you want. Recovery is a piece of software that allows you to flash custom ROMS. did you install Amon's recovery or Clockwork (from ROM Manager) recovery?

You will not get OTA if you have one of these custom recoveries. you will need the stock recovery.

3) In short, you need to flash your phone with a completely stock google ROM.

follow these instructions

[Nexus One General] ctbear:
hmmm interesting...what makes you wanna unroot besides OTA? From what I see that's virtually no advantage to go back to stock rom

If you really want official OTAs, just make sure you check xda often when those are pushing out. There will be stock OTA updates hanging around.
[Nexus One General] cmstlist:
Try this:

http://djmcnz.batteryboss.org/Kang-o-rama/froyo/radio/froyo-radio-update-signed.zip

Flash it from custom recovery. It will reboot, unpack the radio, reboot again in a few minutes, and you should end up back on the 4.06 radio. For what it's worth.

If you want to go back to totally stock unrooted, the most complete way to do so is using a PASSIMG file.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
I installed Clockwork recovery when I first did the Cyanogen flash so how do I know if I still have it on my phone blocking OTA updates?

I had an old 2.2.1 update.zip on my SDcard from an old Nexus One that I sent in through a warranty swap.

Then I powered off and did the whole Volume Down + Power button.

I get the screen with the 3 androids on skateboards and clicked on Recovery

I press on recovery

When I see the triangle with exclamation mark I press power button + volume up and the only options I see are reboot system now, install update.zip from sd card, factory reset, wipe cache

I click on install update.zip (2.2.1) and reboot system now so the phone reboots but I still am stuck with the old radio. How do I know if I have stock recovery and will get OTA updates from now on?

I tried the steps exactly (PASSIMG.ZIP on sd card) but when I do the power + volume down step 7 doesnt happen. There isn't any screen looking for update files. I get the screen with the 3 skateboarding androids instead and no way to get the PASSIMG.ZIP file to work.
[Nexus One General] ChongoDroid:
Can't you download a unrooted 2.2 rom from rom manager and then ota once its installed? Dont quote me though I've never actually tried to unroot
[Nexus One General] cmstlist:
On my phone this is what I get in bootloader mode...

I start up the phone holding down the trackball, and I get the Fastboot with the skateboards. The first menu option, BOOTLOADER, is highlighted. I press Power and I get to the HBOOT screen (also with skateboarding androids). I wait 5-10 seconds and it checks for a PASSIMG on SD. Since I don't have one, it finds nothing and returns me to HBOOT.

Or alternately I boot while holding volume down and I get HBOOT directly. In 5-10 seconds it checks for PASSIMG. The only time it won't do that is if my SD is not installed.

You're saying that on yours it doesn't check for PASSIMG at all?
[Nexus One General] dan1431:
I am in a somewhat similar boat (though not exactly), a colleague of mine purchased a used Nexus One off of fleebay and it came rooted running Cyanogen 6 with Clockwork Recovery (for the Recovery Image).

My colleague wants it to be completely stock (which I do not understand as I find Cyanogen 6 to be far better) and asked me the resident Android guy if I could help.

I figured PASSIMG.zip was the way to go and downloaded the stock rom from developer.htc.com and renamed it PASSIMG.zip. I put the PASSIMG.zip file on his SD card and booted into the bootloader. It checks the PASSIMG.zip image but does not offer me option to install it. It simply checks it and then offers me the normal 4 options.

Any thoughts?

Dan
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Read the Wiki, it has specific reference to FRG83 stock ROM now, which refuses to work in PASSIMG mode.
[Nexus One General] gravufo:
Try as update.zip through custom recovery? Then clear the custom recovery by flashing stock one...then delete superuser.apk + unroot?
[Nexus One General] efrant:
Actually, it's just the ROM. Even if you have a custom recovery: a rooted, stock ROM will still receive OTA updates...
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Yes but on quite a few custom recoveries, it will fail to install due to the signature.
[Nexus One General] efrant:
True. If you are using anything earlier than Amon_RA 1.8 or the latest ClockworkMod, it won't install.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Exactly what I am going through!

So PASSIMG.ZIP doesn't work anymore? SH*T!

Does anyone have detailed a step by step guide to getting the Nexus One back to completely stock for NEWBIES who don't understand much of anything about rooting? :(

I unrooted and updated to 2.2.1 thinking that would fix everything but I can't get stock recovery back to normal to receive OTA updates + I updating to 2.2.1 didn't update the radio to what it should be for frg83. I don't want it to be where every time I get an update (Gingerbread / Honeycomb) the old outdated radio stays the same and eventually screws up my Nexus :(

If anyone has or can write a detailed step by step guide that is easy for newbies to understand I would really REALLY appreciate it :)
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Try this one: http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Pas...le_WWE_2.16.1700.1_FRG33_MFG_Shipment_ROM.zip

It's a zip within a zip though, so will need extracting.
[Nexus One General] mkrmec:
You want to get back to stock recovery and flash stock android... now i get it... had to edit my stupid post :D

Do non unlocked bootloader phones have access to fastboot? Volume down + trackball tap PWR button for a second and release and see if you have fastboot access.

IF you have it you can downgrade the radio with fastboot.

IF not.. you must find out if the custom recovery like Clockwork can replace the recovery via update.zip Too bad that ROM Manager is not made to flash stock recovery. You can have Clockwork or AmonRA but not stock.. blah
[Nexus One General] gravufo:
Without unlocked bootloader, you can't use fastboot commands...that's the point of unlocking.

BTW, you CAN flash the stock recovery...just through a console using ADB...you can even do it in a terminal emulator although I don't recommend that.

And who said passimg doesn't work anymore? It does, you just need the right file. With a locked bootloader, that file has to be legit and signed.
[Nexus One General] mkrmec:
I see ADB can work miracles, sadly I have completely NO experience with it :P
[Nexus One General] gravufo:
Heh, it really isn't that hard, there are plenty of tutorials out there to help you...

IMO, it's a much better solution than fastboot albeit being a little harder :D
[Nexus One General] b1337:
Just look at the title he shouldnt even own a nexus....wahhh
[Nexus One General] dan1431:
I am really unsure why it took 6 attempts to PASSIMG (in theory I downloaded the same image every time) my colleagues Nexus One, but it is now back to 100% stock.

He is a happy camper and I am again grateful to my friends here at XDA for your sagely advice and the tutorials (which are a big help).

Dan
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Hi Dan, could you point me in the direction of the file you used for PASSIMG.zip? Also were you already on 2.2.1 or 2.2? Someone was saying that frg83 messes up that ability.

I'll be happy to do it 6 times if needed but I just need the correct file.
[Nexus One General] gravufo:
well if you're doing it as you're saying it, it's obvious it will fail...it's called passimg.zip and not pass.img
[Nexus One General] dan1431:
I followed the Wiki instructions and downloaded the needed files directly from the links provided within the tutorial itself.

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Nexus_One/Guides_%26_Tutorials#Unroot_.2F_Restore_your_Nexus

My colleague's Nexus One came from EBay with Cyanogen 6 and Clockwork recovery pre-installed.

Hope that helps,

Dan
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Just to clarify:

When restoring via the passimg method, the FRG83 files doesn't work too well. This is the file you rename to PASSIMG.ZIP, and it doesn't matter what version of FroYo you currently have on your phone...

Use FRG33 to passimg, and then flash the update to FRG83.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TonyOCL:
From what I have been reading you need to have your radio version higher.

Also why won't you want to upgrade the current rom? You have to do most of the steps to get Android working anyway (HSPL) etc.

Also until you get the full answer,, I believe you have to state if its T-Mobile US or UK etc

Sorry not the full answer.

"URGENT QUESTION"? Stop posting in bold red and read the HD2-Android FAQ!

Noone will help such people acting/posting like you..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jmmmmm:
Simple answer is YES you can. You are not required to flash to run Android from your sdcard.

BUT...

Several (me included) folks have ultimately had to flash in order to remove or fix little glitches in the build they choose. From the robot voice to data problems, the first suggestion is almost always upgrade your WM ROM or radio or both. And from the looks of it you dont even have the newest official TMO WM ROM. Your radio is a few versions back also.

I would suggest you do some research on flashing to get comfortable with that first, then mess with android. If you dont... your experience with Android will most likely not be pleasant.

Hope this answers the mail.

stuck in Bootloop now...and my recovery is corrupted...how do i proceed
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stiCk.E:
wtf? Was your recovery always corrupted or did it happen after you applied the morph?

Did you nandroid back up before? Guessing not if your recovery was already corrupted.

Are able to get in to bootloader and install amon's recovery?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] enlothien:
yup nandroid back up before applying the morph using Clockwork

1. Applied metamorph

2. restart

3. bootloop

4. battery pull + power on holding volume down to boot to recovery

5. click restore to receive no files found

6. now m really stuck

should i factory reset
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stiCk.E:
This is very strange - I will try my best to help.

so somehow you seem to have lost all your nandroid backups? were there any issues before you flashed this morph? i saw that in another post you said you were missing the recovery file? i just can't see how a framework morph can screw up your recovery files?

i always keep copies of my nandroid backups just in case my SD card becomes corrupted. by any chance did you do this?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] enlothien:
unfortunately i did not keep copies of the recovery

wel the earlier issue i manage to solve it and the recovery worked rebooted normal so i decided to give this theme a try since u have updated it to 6.1...

if i factory reset will it work?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stiCk.E:
a factory reset seems like the only option atm - let me know how it goes. i morphed this theme last night on 6.1 and it worked fine. if you decide to try this theme again on 6.1 let me know if it works. sorry for the headache :(
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] enlothien:
sorry for the late reply had to rush for work.

well did the factory reset unfortunately its still stuck with bootloop.

I can still access the recovery screen thru power plus volume down button tho.

Does anyone here know how can i transfer CM 6.1 from my PC to my sd card so I can just reflash it in recovery?

And thanx stiCK.E its a lovely theme by the way and loving the avatar...hopefully the DJ in it is spinning out some hard pumping Trance.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] fuzzyshubert:
You can mount your SD card in clockwork recovery under the mounts option in the opening screen. Then you can put the file on the SD card.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stiCk.E:
let me know if this works - the other way I can think of is to find another device that uses MicroSD cards and transfer from there.

thanks mate - but i think im going to give this theme business a bit of a break lol :o and im actually a rnb fan :p
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] enlothien:
thanks bro...will give this a try once m done with work here and that would be later at night

thanks stiCK.E for the patience hopefully you wont be away from theming for too long tho cheers mate

Invalid or Deleted File when I click on the link...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stiCk.E:
I removed the link because 'enlothien' got into a bootloop after morphing - but it's back up now - if u try it let me know if it works :o.

if your coming from stock CM6.1 then it should work fine - but if your are morphing over a pre-existing theme you might have issues.

[About XDA developers] HorstDCC:
Dear moderators,

As a daily user of these fora I'm confronted with a disturbing inconsistency in your rules and how they are applied.

You have several that intend to prohibit outright selling of ones product. XDA wants to be as a-commercial as possible.

Alas some rules -like rule 11- focus on a form instead of intent. The wish of a cook or developer to know his/her users differs quite a lot from the wish to obtain money from them.

One could argue that from an administrators point of view a registration procedure is easier to spot so that the XDA house can be kept clean. But then I would argue that the phrases "free version" and "paid version" are as easily spotted. If you want you can search your fora right now and you'd be surprised how many applications whose latest version is no longer free are actively being advertised. Or maybe you won't be surprised, but I was.

I have been a moderator for many years on many fora. I sympathise and I'm perfectly familiar with the need for rules to enable and optimise the moderators job.

Alas, I'm also perfectly familiar the fact that those rules don't allways fit.

Rule 11 doesn't fit. There are better ways to safeguard your intention.

respectfully,

Willing to help, but currently disappointed about what you did to laurentius26.
