installing android 1.6 from recovery? - GT540 Optimus Android Development

Well i know you can't flash 1.6.
And 1.6 roms have fastboot so, can anyone with a 1.6 fastboot rom install clockworkmod and do a nandroid.
Then us with 2.1/2.2 can just restore the backup?
Is that possible?

+1 someone plz upload recovery from 1.6 .. then i can test that, is is working...

bump!!!

please help me

okay this is what ive done...i use the flash rec apk and then backup and applied the ra recovery img. now i can go to the recovery mode...can i apply any rom not knowing the spl?...also one last question.... if i need to unroot do i do this by appliying the dreamin.img by pressing the end and camera then apply and this should unroot it right????
oh yeh i came from a cupcake build...on my g1
To get back to stock you flash the DREAIMG.nbh in bootloader. You need the 1.33.2005 SPL to flash a hero rom and a few others, but they will state that in the OP. You can flash any other rom though.

Correct
Wipe-->HTC 1.6ADP(flash)-->CYangogen(w/o reboot flash)
Wrong
Wipe-->Cyanogen-->reboot
so i flash the 1.6 image and then cyanogen?
is the 1.6 a rom or an image?

Hope you have 2e bootloader and not 3e. Other wise flashing any of the optimized kernels will work as they have cwm in em (If you are using froyo that is)
Yeah I am on 2E thank you

Been gone for a while, can someone help me out?

Hello everyone, I bought my hero on launch and used it until the 2.1 root was found.
I rooted the phone on 2.1 and installed Recovery ver: 1.5.2 and the rom the phone has is fresh hero 2.3.3(this was done before switching phones)
work asked for a blackberry and I had to retire the hero for a few months up until now.
What should I do with the phone in order to get the new roms installed? wipe it fully or unroot?
I was sort of a noob when I got the hero but I managed to root it and get the rom I wanted working, now that I've been gone I really don't remember much
any help is appreciated
fw ver: 2.1 update1
baseband 2.42.01.04.27
kernel: 2.6.29 bc0d2cff
buld: fresh rom 2.3.3 by flipz
First I would probably reacquaint yourself with the ins and outs of flashing and whatnot just to be safe.
Next I would update your recovery image. You can easily do this by downloading ROM Manager from the Market and select the Flash Recovery Image button. That will install ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.7 onto your phone.
Now that you have a newer recovery image, you want to download the ROM you want to install. Now that your ROM is downloaded and on your SD card, you want to backup any information and data you want saved. You can save app data with Titanium Backup from the Market. You may also want to enter recovery and do a nandroid just to be safe.
Now that you have your information backed up, enter your recovery and flash your new ROM. Enjoy!
I have an Old nandroid backup, stock 2.1 with just superuser, do I keep that one or wont it work with the new recovery image?
Thanks for the prompt reply
Forgot to ask, when flashing roms, do you still need to go into recovery and wipe before flashing a new rom? Thanks

Keep your nand. You can use it to update your profile/prl, and yes, you should wipe between rom flashes.
