You will be lucky if you don't get flamed for such a question.. I will tell you there is a one click root you can use on your computer. I will also let you know you can search for it on these forums and with google.. And lastly, YOU NEED to research a little before you can just do these things to your phone..you can FUBAR it. Flashing 2.2 is a pretty wild goal for having a question like this.. Read the sticky in this forum called beginners.. And check the included links..when your a little more familiar with things and have some better questions I will be more than glad to help.. Good luck

I have to agree with neh4pres above. There are sticky threads and a thread clearly saying walkthrough for EB01 in the development section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948722
This will provide you with everything you need. Remember to READ carefully, read again, and then read again. Too many people dont read the instructions and end up with problems on their phone.

Hey guys Im a wimp/too scared to root BUT... I still want my Froyo right now!
Here is a link on phandroid that tells you exactly how to do it: http://phandroid.com/2010/05/22/manually-update-your-nexus-one-to-android-2-2-froyo/
Again... only for people that haven't rooted
Enjoy
(If this a a dup thread sorry moderators take it down, the main froyo thread is all about for rooted Froyo)
Does the bootloader need to be unlocked for this method?

I'm have just the basic N1, never tried anything with it, so I dont know the lingo and don't want to give you wrong info. It worked for me fine though even though I haven't done anything to my phone
Someone posted on that link that it's only working for Tmobile phones.
Mine's for ATT, so I guess I won't try it.
Now that the slide has Root and an update, I have a question that may have been asked/answered in previous threads, forgive me in advance (I did a search and could not get an answer)...
Once rooted, will the slide still get the Froyo update?
Also if the phone has to go back for exchange/warranty, is there a way to flash it back to "Stock" as we did with the Samsung BHII?
TIA!
There is a nandroid backup of the stock rom available in the development section of the forum to revert back for warranty, not sure if froyo will goto a rooted slide, but I'm sure the devs will have a 2.2 rom out soon

Wait... There was an update?
This is the one thing keeping me from rooting.
Just back up your stock android rom before rooting so you can restore it. When you get to clockworkmod for the first time create a backup.

½anyone know where to get the RUU of the slide rom, not mixed and modified by a dev or cook?
but the origional rom or lastest version of it.
the nandroid backup will get you back to stock(ish) and if you're rooted with an aftermarket rom, you WILL NOT receive any updates from tmobile.. A couple days after release of the update, we'll have a rooted version, i can bet my right nut on it(and yes i do still have my right nut lol)
Guys... I don't play forum police or anything but the questions go in the q/a stickied thread or in general. The moderater already moved several threads like this today. Oh and when we do get an update... it will posted here after the proper mods have been made. You'll only have to wait a couple days and I'm sure that will be faster than you having to wait in line for your ota to be beamed to your handset. So go ahead and root it.. trust me! You'll be glad you did. Oh and if you get an ota... don't install it! Contact me or one of the other forum members. Or better yet post your news and we'll tell you the steps so we all can enjoy it.

Or just do it for free? C'mon, this is a Nexus forum and you're advertising your program here which is untested on the Nexus? Or am I misparsing your.... response?
I'm going to leave now....and try to forget "general" exists
yes i have the final update frf91 and root as easy installing and apk poom end you get root afther tha i download rom manger end install the rom from thear.
How safe is it since it has not been tested on the N1 (except that the OP says so).
Don't listen to this idiot. If you want to root follow instructions in the development section.

Im going have to agree with you, No offense to OP but let a Dev confirm this works with nexus one with no side effects to it, anyone that wants to root use the many instrucitons on Development section for now, till this gets a confirmation that it works with N1!
This is the same guy that posted a week or two ago saying that he was unable to follow the directions to root because they were 'too hard' and he was *****ing that other phones have one-click root whereas the N1 doesn't. A couple people even tried to help him, but he just didn't want to try.
If you want to root your N1, make sure you follow the instructions in the Dev section and not some untested program. It might not be as easy, but you learn something in the process.
I know I'm root root know end running cmod 6 Rc2 why a Samsung galasy s them believe it or not.

Hi,
I've got a sim-unlocked AT&T and have updated till 1.57. The phone is rooted and running gingerblur 2.5. I want to upgrade to 1.83 and gingerblur 3.5 but dont know the exact steps.
Do I need to go back to stock, or can I just run the ota and then install gb 3.5?
Thanks, v.

Really??? Another thread requesting the same information that is spattered all over the forums already! Really??? You managed to get rooted on 4.1.57 with GingerBlur.
How about you read the GingerBlur thread for instructions. Other alternative?....Stay on 4.1.57 with GingerBlur 2.5.
People say there is a lot of hate in the Atrix forums................it's not hate. People just get tired of seeing threads like this!
Really??? Another thread criticizing the question, rather than giving an answer, if they are oh-so-smart and oh-so-knowledgeable?
1. Really??? For help, you are pointing me to a thread which has 5809 posts? You might as well point me to a public library and tell me to find whatever I need there.
2. Even if I was to find where this was explained, the thread has a undecipherable mix between noobs (like me) trying and sometimes failing in their attempts, and people (not like you) who are actually giving out tested and verified information. I am very wary to try out those suggestions
3. I am in India - with it not being released here, I had to get it from the US, which means I have no sort of warranty, or other help if I completely mess it up. So I am a bit cautious. If you've got a problem with that, don't reply to the thread. If you're tired of seeing the thread, skip it. No one asks you to read every thread. You're obviously on 1.83. Actually I'm sure, you're on a special 2.83, because you're so damn awesome. How does a thread titled 'From 1.57 to 1.83' have any significance to you, unless you're trying to help.
Damn, I bet if you don't know it already, you can't find the actual answer within 15 mins of searching.
REALLY?
lol.
download the 1.8.3 sbf and flash it.
reroot with gingerbreak.
flash gingerblur.
???
Profit.
Warning: flashing sbf deletes all internal memory, but saves apps and settings. REMEMBER TO BACK UP.

I started out not knowing anything a few weeks back, and through actually reading all the guides, and a lot of trial and error, I have learned from the many people here who already had Android and Atrix experience, and I continue to learn in the same way.
All those threads are in the first 2-3 pages of the dev and themes forums, and all your instructions are 99% of the time in the OP.
The authoritative answers you are/were looking for are located in the same threads as those which I learned from, and which you must have read to get to a rooted 4.1.57 on GingerBlur 2.5.
CaelanT, at the time I went to 1.57 and GB 2.5, I had a fresh phone, so could apply the general procedure - didn't have to do anything different.
This time round it's different, and I can't afford to mess things up by needless trial and error - that's why the question. Anyways, let's end this here. Lesson learned from my end - could probably do a bit more research. But do understand that there are different reasons people ask questions - not just due to laziness.
ok so i did a search only found 1 thread and wasnt what i was really looking for...
inb4 noob thread/search....
i have rooted so many phones its crazy, the only phone to piss me off so much and have so much bull**** about it is the MyTouch 4G . All i want are these questions answered.

2. If i have to downgrade can i reload 2.3.4 and stay rooted ?
3. only reason i want to root this phone at this time is because i want the new Google Apps i had the new market and **** before the OTA update... OTA update comes around and now i have the old one again. How can i get the new apps back ?
4. i want this on my phone is it possible from google now a glitchy rom ? http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-4.0-highlights.html

I dont know if I am allowed to post links to other websites but google CyanogenMod wiki for mytouch 4g and click on the full update guide and it will show you step by step how to downgrade and root the mytouch. Then you can flash any of the gingerbread roms you like. Make sure you follow the directions exactly or else you will brick your device. Also make sure the md5 sums match up for each file before you start the process.

lol i was just looking at CyanogenM im really liking the android 4 OS, id like to put that on my phone. i think what i want to do is get the 2.3.4 back(if i cant get Android 4) and have it rooted
You downgrade to 2.2.1 use gfree to obtain s-off then flash clockworkmod recovery and then flash any rom you want. the software number (2.2.1 2.3.4 2.3.5 etc.) Changes with each rom. Now if you look closely 2 posts up you will see the beta 4.0.1 thread we have and above that the sticky where it shows how to downgrade and how to root after that, PLEASE read before searching and search before posting

1. Yes, but it's only temp root and it's a long process
2. Yes, there is a stock GB rooted ROM on the dev page somewhere
3. Don't really understand your question
