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

[Q] Wrong recovery file applied with ODIN -- AHHHHH!

Well now that was just the stupidest thing I have done in a while....I am sure you will agree.
I just used ODIN to roll back to what I thought was going to be GT1.0 US Retail WIFI but what I DID was apply the European .tar by accident.
My once P7510UEKF3 is now a GT-P7500XXKFF. It's a locked tab and CWR is now gone. ODIN seems to be connecting.
....any chance for recovery or did I just loose it???

Two things
1) check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089 thread to get the ODIN version of CWM and flash it
2) This does not belong in the Dev section

1) Thank you.
2) Understood (now). Thank you, I will ensure question go to their proper location. My bad.

CWR = restored
Root = restored
Model & Build = restored
3.1 OTA ROM = restored
It was bootlooping after that so I just clear the cache/Dalvik and wipe.
Success! Thanks for that...after searching and weaving through way too many threads it ended up being a simple process I just wan't started correctly (aka the ODIN friendly CWR file.
Whew!!!

I would strongly disagree, I do think this belongs in the Dev section; I sure as hell wouldn't post this in the general section, I would want the advice or input of other people who are actually hacking their tabs...i.e., developers. Really tired of development or hacking-related (appropriate) questions being moved to the "general question" section. That section is for just that - general or basic questions, like how do I adjust this setting or that setting, or how do you think this screen compares with that other model's screen, etc, etc. I can say that once one gets past the people who have to get the "this doesn't belong in this section" comments out of their system, there is always a MUCH greater chance of having the best parties see and offer advice on the given problem in this area than in the general section.

It actually belongs in the q&a section hence the q in the title. The link I gave in that post does exactly what your asking. There is instructions to do most things you want on the tablet, but the point is to ask questions in there so the OP can grow as the community grows. That link is also a sticky in the dev thread.

I am aware what the guide says, and apparently you've missed the point - I am quite simply stating that I disagree with the "rules" as they currently stand, which I have the right to do, and in my opinion I believe I have a logical point. I mean honestly answer this - if I have a question for specifically for advanced users (aka i.e., developers), where would I have a better chance of having it seen by such users: in the general section (which is frequented by more novice users) or in the developer section?

With all due respect, if you don't like the rules this is not the place to complain about them.
Take it up with a forum administrator.

doing a google search before i ask a question? what a novel idea! im so glad there are people like you to show me the light.
This android version has been available for my phone literally less than 48 hours. There isnt a whole lot of information out there right now.
Not to mention that i always google search before posting here. And everytime i do, the most popular result is a thread with the first person to reply by saying "google it". Thanks for being that first dickwad :good:

I can see how hard it must be to scroll through first page of subforums. And if you look at the dates when were the posts created,
it shows how much you have tried / how little info was there to find.

You guys need to be a bit more respectful to others around here. There is no need to jump on someone for posting in the wrong section or asking a question that has already been covered. Next time, please just report the thread and move on. Let the Mod Team handle it.

Help needed. Can't update to 2.2.1 because phone is rooted

I rooted the phone and now can't update to the latest version Oxygen 2.2.1 automatically
Is there any way around the problem?

If you have rooted your phone, you probably also have replaced the original recovery with twrp. In that case, just download the 2.2.1 ota zip from the ota thread in this forum and flash it manually in twrp.

Yes there is a way around: search. Because this question has been answered BILLION AND BILLION times. Even if you are a new to XDA, you should know there is rules. You should know there is a search bar located in top right of your screen. There is a index on this forum which gives you link to @Spannaa's thread where he groups all OTA and Stock ROMs + a tutorial to update when you're root. I gave you all information needed.

There is no need to be rude, I actually searched several pages before posting my question, as I was pretty sure the question had most likely been asked before. Certainly don't think it's been asked BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of times.
But thanks for your help, I will be sure to do a more THOROUGH search next time I think about posting

Buddy download the Signed flashable zip - Oxygen OS 2.2.1: OnePlus2Oxygen_14_OTA_012_all_1602261837.zip from the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/rom-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-roms-ota-t3209863
Flash it via twrp or any other customer recovery that you may have. Post that you would have to flash supersu again.

I agree to him, you do not need to be rude, this community is about helping others so it is not a big deal if you typed the solution. If you look at it , it would have taken less less words than the long comments which you posted.

HOW THE HECK COULD YOU NOT FIND IT. You obviously didn't didn't search very hard my son

I concur,no way he searched.. it's always 1 of the 5 under OnePlus 2 general.

The fact that OP had his phone rooted indicates he probably has some basic knowledge of unlocking bootloader, flashing recoveries/ROMs..etc and therefore should be resourceful look up the solution himself be it on XDA or not. The point is with an easy, and somewhat obvious solution to such a common problem (tbh I too had this exact same issue when I first got the phone, but I knew then I had to do a manual flash) surely people will get frustrated when asked.

I agree we are here to help, but come on, a question that has been answered so many times, in many threads, doesn't deserves one more topic. It reminds me the fingerprints problem on CM13 when it didn't work yet: it was about 2 or 3 question about it per page: "is fingerprint working???", "does fingerprint working". Come on, there is search function, so why don't use it ? Imagine if we create a thread every time we have a problem with our device but this problem has already been solved. Imagine state of the forum after all those threads. And yeah, as said above, if this man as his phone rooted, well, I think he has some basics knowledge about OnePlus Two.

TWRP

I have seen the new version of TWRP (3.1.0)
My question is the next.-
To install nougat it is necessary this version, since I have seen and it is somewhat tedious to install the new version of twrp, and it gives me much laziness.
I just want to know if I can Install it with the old version (3.0.0-2) :good:
