Doh!

hmmm... well pull the battery then, put it back in, hold down home while you power the phone back on

So which recovery did you end up flashing?

It might take a while, if it takes more than 15 minutes, hit green+menu+red. It will then reboot, hold down home and it will boot into recovery

You have a G1 right? Its not tmobile specific, but there are versions for G1 and MyTouch

Yup, sex0rs keeps me warm

hax0r his phone

When you are on the home screen, when you hit enter it opens up Launcher, thats where you type "telnetd" Try these instructions, they seem to be a little easier to follow http://androidforums.com/t-mobile-g1/12637-root-guide-stock-2-cyanogen-update-rom.html

I'll be back on in like 30 mins...

You type that into telnet

Sounds like it worked?

No thats what your mom's for.

oh oh, hope its not brick city

Sweet, mine is on its way. It says that someone will try to call you for a phone survey sometime after you receive it.

Yeah, the phone doesnt use it for anything but storage, but when you run hero it uses a partition on there for memory.

Yeah thats cool.

Strange, so either way it cant find the recovery image on the SD card...did you reformat it as fat32?

Ok, I'm in Powell, close to the zoo. How's it not working for you? Did you reformat you sd card to FAT32?

Well god dammit this is Ahmurka, and I have a 2000. You have a 1993, so you're definitely not allowed in here. I dont mind, but I did the old method, perhaps thats worth a shot.

Hmmm... double check spelling, location etc... If that doesnt work you can try using the recovery image in the example, you can always update it afterwards

1998 Nokia users not welcome in this thread.

Just type in whatever its called on your sdcard...I think thats what your asking Oh I havent used the program that basically does it for you, I'm assuming that it allows you to do backups?

I request English from you after every post you make, yet to happen. $60 is for a large amount of storage space. "In Unix-style computer operating systems, root is the conventional name of the user who has all rights or permissions (to all files and programs) in all modes (single- or multi-user)." Also known as Super-User or SU When android was first released it came with root access, then the first update closed it up for security reasons. So to regain root access, you basically switch back to the original android, and then install the newer ROMs(android, hero, etc) which have to modified to keep root access. It will allow you to run different roms, unlocks multitouch (pinch zoom), allows for tethering (your laptop will connect to your phone wirelessly and you can connect to the internet through your phone), over-clocking (make computer run faster), saving apps on the SD card, basically you can do whatever the hell you feel like to your phone.
