So what is the conclusion of this thread? I have a new NC, updated to 1.1 and installed AutoNooker 3.0, immediately installed Clockwork and did a NAND backup... bad thing is that it won't boot off the eMMC anymore, only CW.

I can boot roms off of the SD card (ie Honeycomb) but this isn't want I want. I've downloaded and flashed several roms but its looped at CW. So the rom isn't the problem.

If we can't install Clockwork Recovery, then how can we flash new roms to the eMMC?

[UPDATE]

Found a flashable file which removes Clockwork Recovery.

http://www.etoile-laconnex.com/CWR-removal-rootsafe.zip

After I flashed that I am now booting off the eMMC froyo rom. Nice! Saved me from Restoring it, updating it, and reRooting it.

[UPDATE 2]

Well while it worked initially, it loaded the homescreen and reset. Now it is stuck at the "Touch the Future of Reading" screen with no Recovery... which worse off. Now I have to make a CWM bootable SD, flash the restore, and start over. Nice.

[UPDATE 3]

Finally got it back to stock after hours. I found a "MonsterPack" here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=922870

Even this was more complicated then it needed. I had to download the 128mb RootPack image, and get it going so I can grab the needed root files. Then download the right size Clockwork image for my memory card and get it going. The end result ended in a Clockwork SD card. Then I made a "sdcard" folder from where I added the rootpack files and the stock image 1.0.1 flashable zip file.

Format the system and boot partitions, then flash the stock zip.

I just upgraded stock to 1.1, then will proceed to boot off the microsd and root, install GAPPS, etc.

I wish I knew of a great custom rom to flash. I flashed Nookie Froyo 0.6.8 and it powers down immediately (several complaints about this). Maybe CM7?
[Nook Color General] mw_:
Ditto

I'm having this problem as well, but I can't seem to do anything to fix it. I was running 1.1, and auto-nootered using v3.0. Everything was hunky dory until I installed CWR. I flashed, shutdown, restarted, then chose to perform a backup which brought me down into CWR and I was never able to get out. I used the Monster pack zip to remove CWR, and now I boot to the "n" screen and sit forever. I tried the 8 hard resets and it said it installed on two different occasions, but still I sit on the "n" screen during boot. I tried the 1.0.1 restore zip as well, but to no avail. What do I need to do to get back up and running?
[Nook Color General] ehammond84:
CW Recovery only

So I flashed my NC with both the pre-dualboot and the dual-honeycomb rom, but every time I reboot with the SD card inserted, it only boots to CW recovery. When I take it out..it boots to NC stock OS.

Am I suppose to remove clockwork recovery with the CW-removal zip? I tried that.. once it rebooted it went right back to CW. Should I be using two different SD cards? One for CW recovery and one to load the eMMc?

So confused... :confused:

What I need to know is what should be on the SD card after everything is flashed.
[Nook Color General] samuelhalff:
Mw : you could use a bootable cwr sdcard and flash 'emmc recovery repair', then format data and restore your backup.

Ehamonn: you have to remove cwr from the sdcard. Format should do the trick. But you'll loose the data on it..
[Nook Color General] ehammond84:
Do I need to keep a boot image on the card after I format?
[Nook Color General] samuelhalff:
Well, if you only want to boot from internal memory, no.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mputtr:
Hi Everyone, this is my first time here in this section of XDA developers, but I have an interesting situation.

I recently acquired the Merge (Verizon's G2 variant that is still in limbo) and I'm thinking of rooting it. I have tried the instructions on the wiki for gfree 02, but it seems that as soon as I enter adb shell and type in su, I get permission denied. I read the wiki for hot to use gfree and also how to install adb but I have not been able to find an answer.

I'm trying to get the merge SIM unlocked and because this is the first android phone I have ever owned, I would really like to be able to use it on AT&T's network. Anyways, I would like to get some help as to why I am getting the permission denied response when I did everythng as the gfree wiki said to do. Is it possible that the merge is so internally different that gfree will not work on it even if it's a variant?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratchetrizzo:
It's GSM coming from verizon?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PanCubano:
If you're trying to use gfree to gain s-off, I would HIGHLY recommend running it with the "-s" flag (no quotations) just to be on the safe side

Even then, I still wouldn't recommend running gfree on the merge as it was made to gain radio s-off on the htc vision.

I would suggest using the rage method for now for root. See if that works.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mputtr:
@ ratchetrizzo: no, it's just a world phone version for verizon users to use in different countries

@ Pancubano: So you would recommend against using gfree on the merge then? I'm trying to learn how to perform this rage method, but I have no experience in android whatsoever so even while reading the wiki, it seems there are a few things that are omitted or assumed that is common knowledge. By using the rage method, will I be able to achieve sim unlock status?

p.s thanks for replying!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PanCubano:
The problem is, the merge is a CDMA device, so I'm pretty sure the sim unlock that gfree achieves with our HTC Vision's would not work on the merge. It involves copying partition 7 (on our phones) and making various hex edits to set the secu_flag to 0, supercid to 11111111 and simunlocking the phone, then copy's the modified partition back to the phone. All of which is taken care of by gfree.

Of course in order to process all of this, you're going to need at the very least temp root first, so, I would highly recommend doing more research into the rage method, but, do not try the gfree method yet, as I can't truely confirm if it will work with the merge with just the "-s" flag.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djsinco:
"Rooting the Merge" sounds dirty...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the orange bandit:
You might actually have more luck in the HTC Evo Shift 4G subforum - that's Sprint's version of the G2 (more or less), and thus the internals are more likely to be similar to the Merge than the G2 would be.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huntman21014:
Actually the merge is closer to the G2/DZ than the Shift 4G, right down to the keyboard and hinge, although I see the point since Sprint is CDMA although this phone is CDMA/GSM
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mputtr:
well, thanks for everyone's attempt to help, but I finally realized that Verizon is evil and even if I unlock it, it'll simply be on 2G (EDGE) so there's no point of me having it.

EDIT: so I sold it to someone who is on verizon and will take care of it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
how did you get a hold of one? for some reason i dont believe you even had it from the start, haha. because it hasnt been released yet, and you must of been lucky enough to get an early production version.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mputtr:
I got it from a reviewer of the merge when it first came out. The mod who had it decided to sell it so i took a chance and bought it from him. After trying to unlock it, I finally gave up and because I got a leery of rooting it.

believe me or not, I had it, got to test it out, and finally had to give it up.

check htcmerge.com if you don't believe me. My username is the same as it is here.

EDIT: btw, why would I post this if I don't have it? It seems idiotic for me to post a thread asking for help on a phone that does not technically exist. No, I do not care for the attention. I was tempted to root it but as I said, I simply chickened out.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
Okay okay, its just a lot of speculation about this phone has been floating about and I didn't believe you. How did it run?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mputtr:
It ran as well as the G2. What I did like alot was that unlike the evo shift 4g, the slider mechanism is spring loaded so it snaps upwards. the battery backing is odd since you have to pry the bottom part then unhook 2 minihooks on the side.

The heft of it is probably heavier than the G2, but it feels good in the hand and doesn't feel like it will slip at all.

Most of all the design is amazing!!

I definitely like the feel of the physical build. It feels tough, sturdy, and simply a phone that a man should have.

I think I might have only 1 gripe and that it's still stuck with bing since the one I bought was the Verizon version. (this was before the rumor that it was pulled back to be fitted with 4g).

In the end, I had to give it up, because I am on AT&T and verizon will never let their phones work on any carrier but theirs.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xPreSiDenT:
anyone been able to root a merge? I just got a merge. Didnt know about the phone beforehand and am using it on gsm(it is a worldphone). Once i got home and googled around and checked these forums... its still not released apparently :s so anyone have any idea on how i can root it?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] cvetan27:
Can somebody tell me how to set it as default?Is it possible yet?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] ferlanero:
Please, don´t ask this question at every moment :-/ Devs are working hard on a real Android ROM for our loveled Xperia X1 but till now there is no way to have Android as default system (I mean NAND instalation).

If you want start Android automatically after charging Windows Mobile, just Google it. You´ll found the solution in thousands of threads: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11058529&postcount=15

And as I told you at the beginnig of the post, please try to keep this space useful for devs reporting bugs, problems and so on for the fast development of Android.

Thanks...

noob question:

"3. Now, turn off your phone by removing the battery and enter the Download mode by pressing the Vol DOWN+Home Key+the Power Button together. (Will bring up a screen saying 'Downloading'.)"

i assume this is for the i9000.

how to enter download mode because its not working
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Vol + and. Vol - while inserting usb cable
[Captivate Android Development] cappyandroid:
I just flashed this and it's working great, I love it!

Only one little detail that I'm pretty sure you know about.

When you boot, a screen with random dots pops up for a couple seconds before the bootscreen shows up.

Nothing really major, but just making sure you know about it..

Thanks for the awesome ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
Officially not the worst rom I've ever used
[Captivate Android Development] seanzscreams:
hmm weird i was just coming here to say how i thought it was the best rom ive ever used, the stability and speed, its pretty fn sick. especially that you have to be atleast somewhat competant to be able to flash it right, but i have like 2 suggestions for the future though. ad blocking please and also camera hack so you can take low battery pictures . probably one of my top two roms of choice
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
Maybe you should post why? Is it because you flashed it wrong and you bricked your phone? That's no fault of the rom.

I believe that the SGS tools or something that comes installed allows you to hack the camera to do that.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I have been reading on Darky's i9000 Forum about the Final 9.3. It seems that SpeedMod Kernel and it's variation SuckerPunch will not be recommended in the Final Version of this ROM. I was told you could you these Kernel's Lagfix but not the Recommended Tweaks. Since you can't use the Tweaks it defeats the purpose of these Kernels(IMO). I hate to hear this because I am a Darky fan and I am on 9.2 now with SuckerPunch and it running Great. I will stay with Darky so I am wondering what Voodoo Kernels are out there for Captivates?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] mloc33:
Yeah I agree with you it sucks, this ROM makes your phone lightening fast and super smooth,stable and just plain damn good.

I can totally agree with where your coming from.

Dude, do us all a favour go back to the iphone forums, where life is simple and plain, with a hint of apple!
[Captivate Android Development] viny2cool:
I loved this rom till 8.1...then i went out of country for 1 month and when i came back..everything seemed so complicated...I want to come back to Darky's but I am just apprehensive about it...

In the forum, the first part just says 5 instruction which seems too easy...but then there long two part instructions...

I am confused and afraid to try that...

Also my computer is not able to detect my phone in download mode so i cant use Odin...

can anyone tell me easier way please...I am on stock now...
[Captivate Android Development] seanzscreams:
the only thing is odin is the only way to do it. or atleast the most reliable,

ive learned with odin, i can never use the samsung usb cable that came with the phone it never works , i dunno why

but i just reinstalled windows 7 64 bit from scratch 3 days ago and the only driver i dled was the one included in the samsung oneclick does it all app, (i only used this for drivers)

and odin came up first try , i was leery bc my comp had worked before and i wasnt sure if the new install would remove some random driver i installed that i forgot about that would make odin work,

but to my avail it worked flawless and yes

follow steps for b2

then once your up and running

flash b3 steps 1-5 as i was instructed and damn is this rom better than 8.1

edit still looking for that camera hack in sgs tools someone said on here, do you know how you go about activating the lowbatterycamerahack
[Captivate Android Development] viny2cool:
so you are saying from stock, i follow the steps that says using Odin to flash that tar file and Pda file?

I mean i am confused..I was on 8.1 then i went to serendipity becoz i was confused with what was here....
[Captivate Android Development] seanzscreams:
follow the youtube video go to stock is best

then reboot in recovery reset all user data etc,

boot in dl mode

flash the files with odin

reboot phone

do darky config packages in recovery,

reboot phone ,

put b3 on sd card

reboot into recovery install b3 ,

reboot phone do darkys packages one more time

reboot your done

just a very brief runthrough
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
Its because there are messges in my call logs, which isnt that hard to remove in the first place, no home button haptic, which is also easy to fix, poor battery life, 4 lock-screens. Video call option, which should be removed since the captivate doesnt have a front facing camera. shall i keep going?
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
oh ok. its favor* for one. and the rom isnt SUPER. there are other roms that blow the doors off this one. I tested it out and didnt like it. battery life was poor, also messages in the call logs, no home button haptic, video call option which is annoying as hell. there are things that could be fixed and would make this much better. simple things. all the time and effort put into this was a waste.
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
im more than competent to flash a rom. it doesnt take a genius to do it. what is so sick about it?
[Captivate Android Development] seanzscreams:
o still on b2 huh well there ya go

how goddamn quick it is

if you dont like the dialer flash another one its that easy

call recording and how damn well it works without ever fcing

battery life i had 17 + hours yesterday suckerpunch 51 oc/uv1300

sounds like someone flashed it improperly and is *****ing about things that are more user end than dev

try flashing the updated rom then

4 lock screens was the dead giveaway

read up learn how to calibrate battery

it takes more than one day two days or even three

if you were competant enough

we wouldnt be arguing would we

bc you would have already flashed a new dialer flashed a new mms calibrated battery and tried oc/uv with this to truly maximize battery life

its a big word now PERSONALIZATION

this rom takes some time skill and user input , personally its my fav bc this forum isnt dumped with people *****ing over and over about how it broke this or broke that, i

like the opening page just the way it is, scary so people that dont appreciate hard work stay away
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
no im not on b2.

and just because i have a life and i dont sit here all day on xda. all im saying is that in MY opinion its not the greatest thing since sliced bread. get off darkys **** and have an opinion of your own.
[Captivate Android Development] seanzscreams:
well thank you for finallly coming clean about what the problem is,

you obviosly are incompentant at flashing bc if your on b3 and dont have 5 lock screens,

whoops

, and sorry bro not on anyones ****, its just funny to see people think they have an idea and know everything , and it turns out obviously they flashed it wrong

l...o....f....l....

bc ive been running it with no probs ,

1754 quadrant

16.6 linpack

56.5fps

speed numbers for your liking

i have an opinion my 3 fav roms are darky, serendipity, and cognition,

this rom just gives me the most out of what im looking for and i back it bc not everyone can flash it

so you too are allowed an opinion and its cool if its not favoring mine,

this rom is bad ass no need to knock it bc it doesnt suite your needs

home haptic feedback no big deal for me.

so to each is his own
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
IM NOT ON B3 either. i was on resurrection.

hey im sorry for being an ass to you. you did nothing wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
i follow the instructions perfectly. i just didnt want b3 because of the beta. so i did the resurrection odin package, went flawlessly (atleast to my knowledge) maybe ill give it another shot. should i stick with 9.2 resurrection or b3?
[Captivate Android Development] seanzscreams:
my bad as well for seeming hostile

totally dude b3 is sick i really like it bc of the stability of the call recording i have not stopped using it, lol now everyone thinks im recording them it includes 5 lock screens and also fixes a lot of issues from b2, also flash over in the theme sections one of his crazy dialers

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=949972

they clean up the overall look of the dialer how it has that weird video call button flash any one of these and that will disappear

you also have to do the resurection .zip after you install b3

so just flash b3 through cw

reboot redo the darky configurator reboot flash resurection .zip

also flash captivatefix.zip first
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
alright ill give it a shot! i appreciate your help.
[Captivate Android Development] rickysa2000:
