Help after root

[djtroy30]

Ok, i've read and read and still have issues. I'm rooted and see that I have superuser perm. I d/l rom manager and have clockworkMod recovery. I try and reboot into recovery to do a nandroid back up, but the phone reboots and then a picture of a phone appears with a red rectangle and a ! mark in it. The phone does nothing until I remove battery. What am I doing wrong?

Try flashing alternative recovery in the Rom Manager

Tried that and same thing. I'm at a loss. About to just give up and go back to stock.

What version of CWM do you have, there was just an update

I rooted using the SuperOneClick method and the version of Rom manager that I have is 2.5.0.6

What gives? all i want to do is flash CM6

Flash the v2.5.0.1 clockworkmod recovery again

Flash the v2.5.0.1 clockworkmod recovery again

flashed v2.5.0.1 , still can't reboot into recovery

 

[andygu3]

flashed v2.5.0.1 , still can't reboot into recovery

Have you tried to flash the newer recoveries? Down at the bottom, 2.5.1.0 or 2.5.1.1

I got errors trying those, you think it has anything to do with using the superoneclick root method?

No

Just a thought, do you have Titanium Backup? Download from the market, go to problems, install busybox. See if that helps

didn't work

I have even tried to install CM6 thru ROM Manager, but requires me to reboot into recovery

 

[DonB]

Have you tried manual recovery reboot ??

Yes, Pushing the home button + power button

gives me the same thing, an image of a phone with a red triangle with a ! in the middle.

quite strange, shouldnt you be able to reboot into recovery even without root?

Did you check Lisa's thread she had the same issue, http://androidforums.com/sprint-hero-all-things-root/212714-lost-super-user-permissions-again-4.html

hmm, I'm not sure if my issue was the same as hers, I have superuser installed and seems to be working properly,

However I noticed you posted the .6 build from the HTC site...
think it would be wise to put this on instead of the .7 I have right now, and try to use universalAndroot? Or would that not make much a difference?

 

[DonB]

Yes because with the build .7 build you can't use the Universal Androot

Thanks, I'm rooted, I have superuser, I just cant flash a custom ROM because I cant get to recovery mode, nothing seems to be working

 

[DonB]

The super one click is different, Universal Androot needs to be on the .6 build or less

Version 1.6.1 is the one I used from here, [APP] [ROOT] 1-click root for N1 (Latest ver: 1.6.2 beta 5) - xda-developers

I'm trying to get back to .6 but its not reading my phone, now I'm really discouraged about all this...

I did this all last night, I went back to stock and put the .7 build on, rooted using the superoneclick method, and havent been able to reboot into recovery mode, thus not being able to install a custom ROM

 

[DonB]

Are you flashing the .6 build from your PC, that is the only way to do so

You can't Reboot into Recovery without having one installed -
If you used the Super one click you should have one -

You have to flash Clockwork or another recovery -
