Easy Root APP [Instructions]

[iPhoneSlayer]

Cool! Welcome to the darkside!
RC3 is the current Release candidate. It's supposed to be more stable than the nightlies (although I'm running a nightly from 3 days ago and it is very stable)
Nightlies are incremental updates to the current Release Candidate (RC3). They are supposed to be experimental but usually fix bugs in previous nightlies. These nightlies are like building blocks to the next Release candidate or Final release. So they have added features than previous ones.
RC3 does have 720p and comes with a custom kernal, but some of us like the wildmonks kernals that you have to flash yourself.
Once you have flashed CM6 RC3, you can start flashing nightlies the sameway. However, you don't have to do a full wipe between nightlies.

One more question, what with the 720p for the kernals? Does that just mean the Kernals support 720p

And if I revert back to stock Froyo, will my kernals also go back to original?

It better be worth it dammit.

The kernal that comes with CM6 will support 720p. If you recover back to stock froyo, you will still have the original kernal. When you made a back up of your stock rom, you made a exact photocopy of it.

So it was backing up the Stock and installing CM6 I guess but now it stuck for the last 10 mins or so on the android with the arrow coming out the box so what does that mean?????

Did you back up your rom? What was the last screen you saw before the android/box/arrow screen?

I might add that the install is fully yellow. Should I take the battery out? These are the reason why I didn't want to root, so I hope it's not bricked. I can hit the power button and it will just show the android and box, but if I hit it again it will so the back and loading info.

So how should I go about this y'all.

After rooting and installing CyanogenMod RC3 do you need to install a kernell?? Trying not to sound dumb but coming from blackberry and downloading new operating systems all the time this is much different. CyanogenMod RC3 is a new operating system so what exactly is the kernell? Do I need a new Kernell? Thanks for listening to this rookie.

PS I want this new RC3, I think my original question was does this new download give the NEXUS ONE A STRONGER RADIO?
Thanks again

I don't think so on the radio, no need to install a different kernal, you will need to reinstall gapps, RC3 doesn't include it. I would dl the latest nightly.

It takes a good 10 to 15 min to do the backup and installing new rom. What does the loading info say? And don't worry..it's not bricked. Even an aggie can't brick this.
BTW, you hear about the aggie that threw a rock at the ground?


























He missed.

Did you back up your rom? What was the last screen you saw before the android/box/arrow screen?

It was downloading CM6 and GApp then a box came up to back up ROM and Clear Data Cache

Then it show the screen and I guess it was showing installing ROM?

This is what's on the screen now

ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7
Waiting for SD Card to Mount (20s)
SD Card Mounted...
ROM Manager 2.0.2.5
Preparing to install ROM...

I think it was loading the ROM but not sure. The yellow bar was filling up then when it filled it stuck at that point.

It's been almost 30 + mins now. and still stuck.

Shouldn't be stuck for that long.
You have have to pull the battery and reboot. It will go back to your stock rom. Then open rom manager, menu>settings> check Advanced Mode. Go back to rom manager main screen> fix permissions. This will take about 10 minutes. Then reboot.

EDIT: I see that SBS is here. He's the expert, so I'd listen to him first
But you are not bricked.

Well you already had the froyo radio so there is no way its bricked. Sounds like something went wrong with rom manager. I agree tho it shouldn't take that long. did you make a nandroid before flashing cm6?

No didn't know I needed to before hand.
