[Q] Powerbutton broken, install new ROM - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I'm sitting here with an Nexus One with an broken powerbutton. I would like to install a new ROM, but my problem is especially, that i can't select an option, when my phone is in recovery mod.
How could i navigate aorund the problem? I know, a few options are available from an shell, for example to reboot. But i can't navigate and choose an entry out of the shell.
Do i miss some features or does exist other ways to install an new ROM?
Greets

use clockwork mod recovery , choosing is by the trackball

try 4ext touch recovery. no need of power button. search for it under DEVELOPMENT SECTION...

Anyway! Thanks a lot. Some simple informations can change whole things

may be cos ur recovery didnt stick permanently.

clock work recovery mod problem

My legend is on rooted 2.2 , I have set cpu and rom manager installed ...i wanted to overclock so I have download the version 3.5 from a guide posted under this section. Ive run into problem with rom manager. I've downloaded clock work recovery mod after installing the latest version of rom. When I try to instal the kernel , after out shows the pre installation menu, I check backup rom and uncheck wipe data and cache and then its supposed to boot into the recovery menu but out doesn't and shows the screen with the red exclamation mark and nothing else happens. How must I proceed here ?

This will sound rude, but the solution is to not overclock. You lack experience and knowledge. Lurk around the forums for at least a few weeks, then you may be ready to try again.

If you've decided to go further, at the triangle with exclamation mark, press (and keep pressed) vol-up then press power till a blue menu appear. Select the second option (the one containing "flash update.zip from sdcard") and you'll end at a green menu. That's CWM recovery 2.5.x...if it is an orange/yellow one it's CWM 3. You can flash a rom or kernel from there using "flash zip from sdcard" option.
Tip: Next time you can better use search, this question has been answered already several times by now in various threads...

This is the correct version of kernel I must flash , right ? What about the 4.0 version ?

[Q] Any software can reboot P925 to recovery mode?

Any software can reboot P925 to recovery mode?
Tried a few apps none of them can boot into recovery mode.
I am using CWM touch 5.8. Press Vol+3D+power is a little painful.

Have you tried rom manager. I don't know about touch but on my CWM only Rom Manager will boot into recovery.

Rom manager lets me boot into recover with Touch
ROM Manager also lets me boot into recovery with CWM Touch. You might want to try and reinstall CWM and ROM Manager to see if that helps. Are you using ROM Manager PRO or just the free version?
Free version works for me

Does not work for me even on regular CWM. Tried ROM Manager and Quick Boot, none of them working for me. Press Vol+3D+power is very hard, mostly time the phone does even not power on.

The phone is just stubborn. You have to hold the power button for a while. Quickboot doesn't work for me either.

Cant get into stock recovery sucessfully

I have a stock Android 2.3.6 galacy exhibit 4g and when I boot up into recovery, an update is automatically found, installed and then reboots the phone doing the same thing every time recovery is booted into. My problem is, I cannot find this update package in my internal sd storage to save my life nor do I even know what the update package would be called. Can anyone please help?

I'm not certain but it might be called update.zip, because if I remember that's the only name that will flash in the stock recovery. As for finding it, just try searching for update.zip. it should be on the root of the sdcard(no folder) because that's the only way I thought it could install. Any ways I'm probably wrong but at least you can try.

I'm not sure really what CSC code is but I think your talking about stock Odin flash able package. That should get you back to stock and flash the stock recovery and wipe everything. However i think it will bootloop after it flashes so you will have to boot into recovery and wipe data. If so check out the wiki. There is all the info you need. I have another idea though. I haven't done this myself but you should be able to push a clockworkmod recovery.img to the phone from a terminal if you have adb also in the wiki. I can't view your pic because I don't have a Facebook but maybe someone else can. Good luck

That is the stock update pushed by Samsung from what it sounds like. Also sounds like a data packet might have dropped during the downloading of it causing a bad install. For simplicity get cwm Installed and boot thru that and flash from cwm. Wiki has all the info needs.
Wiki please read completely on rooting and install of cwm. Suggest 6.0.1.2 version. Personal preferences on that.

Problem solved. I just randimly pushed the 3 buttons on the phone before the rebooting part came up in the script and finally got the menu, took may tries to get to that point but as soon as I got to that point, I was quick to install clockworkmod successfully. Now problem is gone. Hope this thread maybe helps someone else

I have a similar problem. Which 3 buttons are we talking about? Power+Home+VolUp?
Easiest way, take out battery, push volume up and power, insert battery while holding, when Samsung appears release only power, when the android guy with package appears press menu
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda app-developers app
Make sure you push the "Menu" capacitive button (left in the row of four buttons below the screen) when you see the green Android guy and the box. That will get you into the stock recovery menu.
I had to reboot into recovery a couple of times because I missed that part. What a pain!

need help with rooting

hi the xda developers
i have a question. i want to root my htc one uk version but i dont want a custom rom i want to keep the original one but also will it wipe my phone as i wonna keep my data apps ect..? if so could you give me a noob prove easy stap by step guide ?
thanks :good:
If you follow this guide, you'll be fine.
Unlocking the bootloader will wipe your data though and you'll also lose some stock apps. You can get the stock apps back from the HTC One missing APKs folder here - http://d-h.st/users/KidCarter93
Please search in future though

oh sorry mate lol but one quick question do i have to do step 4 after ive done step 1-3 because i dont want custom rom just want it rooted
No, you won't need to. Just go to the end of step 3 and you're good to go. That's as far as I took mine aswell because I'm not interested in ROMs which are just stock with a few extra features.
I rooted just so I can have access to certain apps which need root permission and so that I'm ready to flash ROMs once more come along which aren't stock based

It's up to you, because they all do the same job, but I recommend TWRP because it looks better and has a nice feel to it, in my opinion.

Yes that was stated by kidcarter93 above. It's also stated in the op of the other thread. Unlocking the bootloader wipes your phone. If you are lucky enough to have automatic back up and restore turned on (it's on by default) u needn't worry as your stuff should reappear again in a while.

Flash a recovery in fastboot, use the USB cable the one was shipped with.
After that, in fastboot, choose recovery and confirm with power button.
Boot into recovery, do a backup of your stock ROM, then choose reboot.
If possible use CWM, TWRP may cause problems.
When you are booted up, copy the root tools to your sd card via your computer, go back to recovery (power down, wait a few secs, then press Power and Vol- at the same time and hold for several seconds...this brings you back to hboot/fastboit screen where you can select recovery again)
In recovery, select the root.zips and flash them...boot back and your stock ROM is rooted.
The first back up of your stock ROM (nandroid) keep it safe as a copy on your computer

oops i didnt back up my stock recovery and now i need one because most of my important apps are not root supported
and i want to go back to stock my CID is [HTC-001]

Please Help

I'm sure you guys get this alot, but unfortunately i have no idea what I did to my phone. I got my HTC one for Sprint in the mail today and already It's not responding. I unlocked it, and rooted it. Tried out a couple of ROM's, it was great until one gave me a problem. Then I tried to Restore a backup and bam now i can't even boot up. What do I do? Is my only option to Unroot/Relock. I'm sorry if this has been asked already or there is a different section I should post in, like I said I'm new to all this fun.
Thank you,
-Connor
Can you get in to the recovery screen? (turn back on while holding video volume down and power) if you can download a rom on you computer and you should be able to put it on your phones storage. Then reflash that rom.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
Yeah I can still get into recovery and everything, except when i wipe everything and install a ROM it still wont get boot properly, its almost as if i didn't have a set up app and thats causing it to not even boot up. I am trying a new ROM at the moment, otherwise I'm out of ideas.

Use Hasoon2000s All in One toolkit for the HTC One along with the ADB Sideload functionality under advanced in TWRP to flash a new ROM to your Sprint HTC One.
