I am still in 'suspend/sleep' mode, whether want to 'root' or not my N1 ..

I already set up my own crosscompile environment in my GNU/Linux laptop and successfully compiled the N1 kernel with my own preferences

If you want paid apps, you have to unlock your bootladder and roots your nexus, you guys can check xda-developer or modaco websites, inside there have tutorial how roots, if you roots you will void your warranty. You guys have to follow guide to roots carefully or you will brick your nexus like our forumer here andrewtst.

Haha..when you have root you have endless possiilities..There no one thing that root can't do which unroot phone can..You can do a nandroid backup of the original ROM you have, use a CMR, go back to the custom ROM, or install the original ROM anytime (downloads can be provided). But if you have root, seriously, custom ROM will wow you even more But like I said, when you have root, you have endless possibilities..Only be patient when you do your stuff


There is actually one more method of memory management which lets the Android kill apps that hogs background memory without using the TasKiller. I did it once and it was really awesome. Problem is, I change my ROM all the time so it has to be re-done all the time. I think someone actually posted a link of it somewhere in this thread. But its going to be a long search if you guys want to find out coz it's a link to another forum Or, you can search on xda / modaco..Dang, I really need to recompile all of these tips etc.

Okay, first of all, look through the Hero tutorial which is a sticky post of my guide..There will be SDK installation..You need that first to run anything related to rooting and flashing process..After that, just follow the steps I've included on this thread for Nexus One

Updates to the community project, I'm thinking, instead we have our own wiki for Malaysian Androiders..We can have all APN lists, rooting guides, basic rooting guides, specific model rooting addition steps, etc etc..But I need a very huge support for this if I want to go with it..Because newer phones will be coming out soon and we will need to play with them..And of maybe we will have to make it ads and donations driven to maintain it (buying new phones etc for testing)..
We can even include reviews..Its still not too late as there are still not that many Android phones yet in the market..If we want to do, we have to do it really fast..

I 2nd that shah, if you want contribution or information, count me in:-)

Count me in shaz will contribute as much as I can

I have read on Shahz notes at first post. If I understand correctly, here's the steps I need to perform to root my n1 without installing the custom ROM.

First, flash the phone with the superboot image file. Get it from here (if the link breaks, let me know):
http://android.modaco.com/content/google-n...-the-nexus-one/
You must also determine which version of superboot you need to execute. The instructions are crystal clear in that thread. At this point, you already have root. The next steps are optional.

Next, flash the Amon-Ra recovery image:
http://android.modaco.com/content/google-n...recovery-image/


So, flash the Amon-Ra recovery image will include Nand-Backup of original ROM.

Please correct me if I am wrong. I am preparing myself now. Hopefully can root it after 1 or 2 months usage without hardware issue.

Thanks.

now i belive comprehension is your forte ? let me know once you grow a pair of balls.

OK I had that multi touch issue again issit a bug?
anyone else experiencing the same issue

Bro good luck with rooting let us know ya

yes gesture search is much better than voice search..
it's pretty fast.

Added on March 4, 2010, 6:29 pmi dont have multi-touch issue so far.. could it be your palm/tip of your fingers holding the phone causing this?

Hmm u could be right tho will post if such things happen again.....hmm gesture touch looks cool but only for rooted phones right correct if m wrong

Like I said b4 u don't need to root ur N1 to install gesture becoz you can download .apk file from here ( com.google.android.apps.gesturesearch.apk )
