First off, questions go in Q&A, and will be marked with a [Q] before the title.
Secondly, you didn't provide what version of Android you were running.
I'm guessing here, but you may be running the leaked 4.4 Samsung ROM, if so, look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2607215
If not, then I have no idea.

So far you have created 3 threads for this request:
RULE 5. Create a thread or post a message only once.

I created one thread but it was in the wrong place. Someone told me to put it in the right place. Since I can't move threads I had to create a new one. I didn't realize the original guide was one this forum until later.

I have Froyo on a non rooted nexus is here a way to unlock and root it it I have been trying but it will not recognize the bootloader. please help .
Thank You
You can unlock it using fastboot, just like you could in 2.1, as far as I know.
From there, flash a different recovery, then use something like this quick rooter:

First of all, wrong forum.
Second of all, you're smart enough to figure out how to put an official firmware that's not released yet on your phone. So please use the search or read the forum stickies.

First of all I did not asked to be flamed just needing help If I made a mistake I am sorry but I thought this was a friendly helpful community or are you the bad apple ?
If you read the forum more, you'll find threads similar to this one, if you don't search no one will help you, especially for this very easy question you're asking.
1. Click on the Nexus One Q&A sub forum, that forum is for asking questions and getting answers.
2. There's a sticky, 3rd one down, it's titled "***Informative Links*** - Read before clicking "New Thread"". Click that, you should get to here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618768
3. Right there on top, 2nd link is "Root the Nexus one Tutorial" with the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612858 Click it.
4. Follow to the directions. If you have issues, ask in that thread.
Helpful enough? LOL

Update android NAND rom without losing data?

Hey,
Was wondering if it was possible to upgrade a NAND rom without loosing all my apps, contacts, images etc. Reason being that I have a very early build which has some missing features such as GPS and I really need them. I have been using this build for a while now an have added new contacts, installed apps and have a lot of data on it generally. Is there any way that I can update to a new build whilst keeping my data?
Thanks in advance

in this topic a video show u how can u upgrade u're rom with ClockWorkMode.
It amazes me that there are people in these forums who are smart enough to to install android rom on there phone, but they still can't figure out where to post a question. There is a forum for questions and there is a forum android development, and yet they still pick the development forum for questions. Why is this concept so hard to understand. Haven't you noticed that there isn't any other questions being asked in this forum except yours?

Its because they know more people view the nand development forum than the Q&A forum so they have more chance of getting an answer to their question.
I noticed a while ago a mod from another xda forum posting a question in the nand dev forum for that very same reason.
Simple solution, don't answer people who start question threads in dev forums until they are moved to the proper place.

Titanium Backup
The name is Titanium Backup

So you don't want people to answer your question in the nand dev forums until it is moved to Q&A forums. Then why didn't you just post in the Q & A forum in the first place. You saw another person posting in the nand dev forum, so now you feel like you should do the same. So now other people will see your question and then will post there own questions in the nand dev forum and the trend will continue.The last thing everyone wants is the nand dev forums flooded with questions. By the way, a quick search in the forums, you could have found an answer to your original question.

If you bothered to read my reply i was agreeing with the person i quoted "YOU" and was only stating the reason some people are posting questions in the Dev forum. Example,,,, the mod who had posted a question in the Nand Dev forum for that very reason.
I was also saying people should not answer questions put in the dev forums until it has been moved to the proper place. They will then have to wait until it has been moved which could be hours if the mods are not about or busy. Getting a quick reply in the dev forum only encourages others to do the same.
If you can find any question i have started in a Dev form you can have my HD2 for free.
Idiot.
I seem to have started a row. I appoligise for starting this thread where I did. I hope you two can still be friends! Thanks for the help will use the clockwork mod as soon as I can!

You can't use CWM unless the ROM is CMW friendly.
You need Titanium Backup - free in the market. (The paid version is WELL worth it though!)
thanx is just needid this

My first post here.. I have a Sprint Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch that I received a few weeks ago as a work phone. I've gone through the update to ICS, then, using this forum, have now gone back to GB EL29.. I used the process described in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101
to restore GB and to root my phone. All that went very well.
Now for my next step in the world of rooting.. now that I'm rooted, what can I do? I dont think I installed the CWM during this process, so not sure what that is/does and how to install it.
My primary goal for doing this is as follows:
1) be able to remove bloatware from my phone
2) be able to access/install apps that are not available through GooglePlay
Can this be done with what I've done so far (only rooted the phone), or do I need to install CWM or other programs.
Thanks for all the help...

You can do number 2 even without rooting. You can install every apk you with on your phone. Just tick the option "allow unknown sources" in the settings.
For question number 1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1442549
If you had been reading and following the rules there would have been any reason to open this thread.
Your first post here, and you posted in the wrong device forum. You're currently posted in the I9100 Galaxy SII forum. You have an Epic 4G Touch. That device has a separate forum. Though Schindler33 meant well above, I advise you NOT to follow any of the directions or flash any firmwares/ROMs/kernels found in his link... since all of those links are to things meant for the I9100.
I find this somewhat ironic, since your own link above is to a post in the correct forum for your device.

I was looking under this section http://forum.xda-developers.com/ and didn't see an Epic 4G Touch section, thus my reason for posting in this section. But thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I'll head over there now. I appreciate the feedback for a new user..

[Q] Just got the phone, what can I do with it? (Rogers)

Hello all, I come from the sgh-t959 forums. I just purchased an S4 (rogers variant) about an hour ago, and now I'm eager to learn what fun stuff I can do with this. So I have a few questions to ask you to feel more comfortable with this phone .
Are different roms worth putting on? I only cm on my old phone because stock was 2.3.6, this bad boy runs 4.3.
I found the root procedure for my phone, will it the procedure work on the new firmware? (Link below to the procedure I'm referring to)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293800 = link to the auto root thread I was talking to above
Is there any fun tweak's I should be aware of to put on it?
Any apps that are most have on it?
Can't wait to get this baby to the latest android.
Any links or information related to my phone model are much appreciated, because theirs so much to sort through.
So yeah, hello Samsung S4 section of XDA, I hope I'll get along with you all.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I am a noob here until further notice
You need to read the "pinned" threads in the 'general" and "Q&A" sections before you do anything. Almost all questions about the S4 have already been asked and most of the answers can be found in those threads or through the threads linked in them. The search function will also be useful. Make sure you follow the XDA rules and search before asking. Above all, remember, this is a development site. It is up to you to search read and learn about your device before you do anything to it. If you follow these suggestions, you should do just fine. Good luck.
Ahhh perfect, can you delete your post so I can delete this thread?
Edit: MODZZZ delete my noobish thread please/

@neto1012 - this is most certainly not something that should be posted in the development sections of any devices threads, especially not original dev section. If you didn't "create it" it doesn't belong in development. If you didn't "create it from scratch" it doesn't belong in original development.
Please read the rules linked in my signature & follow them. This is your warning to post in correct sections - next time we'll be forced to take more action. Moved the thread to Q&A where it belongs.
@platinumyahoo - you're absolutely correct about the thread but questions don't go in general, they go in Q&A. Also, next time don't post on silly threads like this - just click report. Thanks!
