It only does the test drive again.
Once that's done, press enter and you should get a wall of text.
Scroll up a bit and you should see that.

But why i am getting msg that Supercharger Level - 50% Supercharge

The reason is explained just after that. You should have two lines each explaining one reason.
As for myself, I'm still stuck pulling my battery every 3-5 minutes and rebooting. It's been 5 times now.

You can install SMWidgets then enable the SuperCharger widget to check if it ran or not.
Personally, the widget didn't work for me (icon text was overlapping in the 1x1 icon, couldn't read a thing).

Just a little warning. If you decide to use the Wheel Alignment feature (might be in RC9 and not RC8, not sure), make sure you disable phone calls (airplane mode?). I received a phone call while it was working and my system started lagging really bad even tho RAM/CPU was not loaded. After rebooting, phone got bricked and had to flash PDA file using ODIN.

For your amazing works leading up to this guide
Notes:
- Donate if I've helped save your HTC warranty.
- This will work! If you can't figure something out, don't get discouraged. Ask here for help.
- After this process, you can flash whatever ROM you like in recovery. I just have the steps showing for CyanMod so you know you have a good, clean system to start off with.
[T-Mo & ATT] Prerequisites:
- Locked Nexus One flashed with FRF85B
(Stuck on FRF91? Use THIS to downgrade to EPE76. Then update back up to FRF85B.)
- Lastet SDK (Click)
- Working ADB (Info)
- The attached .zip "ROOT_FRF83.zip" (Attachment at bottom)
- Got Mac/Linux? (Click Thanks madj42)
Process:
1) Extract the files within "ROOT_FRF83.zip" into the "tools" directory of the extracted SDK package
2) Open a command prompt or terminal and change to the "tools" directory of the extracted SDK package
- Example: Type "cd C:\Users\Matt\Desktop\android-sdk-windows\tools" and hit Enter
3) Type "loop" and hit Enter
4) With phone attached through microUSB, enter Recovery with the battery cover OFF and the SDcard REMOVED.
- Tip: Be careful not to let the battery fall out during this process
- Tip: To enter recovery, boot while holding Volume down button. Then select the recovery option.
5) When you see the HTC devices attached in recovery mode, hit Ctrl+C, then "y", then Enter
6) Slide in SDcard (Make sure there is no update.zip on it at this point)
- Tip: It should slide in and click VERY easily if you trim the tab on the battery properly. A sharp razor blaze works well.
- Tip: I recommend this instead of other methods (paper slip) because it will work without error
- Tip: You only need to cut as far as the SDcard slot goes, you do not need to trim the entire tab

}
7) On your phone, press Power + Volume Up AFTER inserting SDcard
8) Choose "apply sdcard:update.zip"
- Tip: It will fail, but that is expected because there is no update.zip
- Tip: This is done to mount the SDcard after achieving adb while the SDcard was out
9) In your terminal type "adb push flash_image /sdcard/flash_image" and hit Enter
10) In your terminal type "adb push ota.zip /sdcard/update.zip" and hit Enter
11) In your terminal, type "adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip" and DO NOT yet hit Enter
12)Ready your finger near the Enter key of your keyboard so that you can quickly hit it once you complete the next step
13) Choose "apply sdcard:update.zip"
14) As soon as you see the yellow installation progress bar, hit Enter on your keyboard
- Tip: If completed properly, you should see a message about rooting adb
15) Choose "Reboot into system"
You now have root access(aka Admin rights) in your stock ROM, but with limited capabilities.
If you want to do any of the following, please continue:
- Flash a custom recovery
- Perform Nandroid backup
- Flash a Rooted Stock Froyo ROM with full capabilities
- Flash CyanogenMod
16) Download the following to the root of your SDcard
- recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img: http://rapidshare.com/files/393267368/recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img
- Note: UnMount your SDcard after copying these files, but keep your phone plugged in
17) In your terminal type "adb shell" and hit Enter
18) In your terminal type "su" and hit Enter
- Tip: At this point, it will hang until you choose "Allow" on your phone with the SuperUser app pop-up
- Tip: $ should now be replaced with #
19) In your terminal, type "mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system" and hit Enter
20) In your terminal, type "cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image" and hit Enter
21) In your terminal, type "chmod 775 /system/bin/flash_image" and hit Enter
22) In your terminal, type "flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img" and hit Enter
23) In your terminal, type "rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh" and hit Enter
24) In your terminal, type "rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p" and hit Enter
You can now boot into your new Recovery by turning off your phone and turning back on while holding Volume Down.
If you want the latest CyanogenMod, please continue.
25) Download the following to the root of your SDcard
- update-CM-5.0.8-N1-signed.zip: http://cyanogen-updater.googlecode.com/files/update-cm-5.0.8-N1-signed.zip
- gapps-passion-EPF30-signed.zip: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mjzwozjojkh
26) Nandroid backup
- Tip: In Recovery, choose "Backup/Restore" then "Nand backup"
- Tip: This will give you an exact copy of your system's current state which you can revert back to at any time
27) Wipe your phone
- Tip: In Recovery, Choose "Wipe" then "Wipe data/factory reset"
28) Apply zip "update-CM-5.0.8-N1-signed.zip"
- Tip: In Recovery, Choose "Flash zip from sdcard"
29) Apply zip "gapps-passion-EPF30-signed.zip"
30) Reboot into your newly rooted phone!
thanks! is there any specific reason why it has to be FRF83 or FRF72 if you know? for us AT&T Nexus User stuck on EPE54B, shouldn't we be able to do the same? or the ota.zip is different in that sense? Please give us some insight. thanks!
Sorry, where is The attached .zip "ROOT_FRF83.zip" ?
where is the attached .zip "ROOT_FRF83.zip"

Still getting either adb with no sd, or sd with no adb.
When I follow your exact process, apply "sdcard:update.zip" returns
"-- Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Installation aborted."
and then "adb push flash_image /sdcard/flash_image" returns
"failed to copy 'ota.zip' to '/sdcard/flash_image'ermission denied".
These are the exact same returns I get when I tried the process without a card inserted, which is what leads me to believe the card is in but not mounted.
Is there a way to tell adb to (re)mount the SD card in recovery?
Or am I doing something wrong...
Can you walk me through just those particular steps? Like Cookbook-detailed instructions.
Make sure that you are inserting the sdcard BEFORE you press Power and Volume Up to reveal the recovery options and AFTER you get adb connected in recovery mode with loop.
Also make sure you can get adb working while in android to make sure the driver is installed properly.

weird thing is adb devices do not see my phone even without SD card...
guess froyo is a must to get this working?
i am on EPE54B, still...
I now have an unlocked, newly unrooted FRF83. Will this tutorial still work for me?
t mobile usa 3g network, stock recovery image. I think I am unrooted because there was a warning in the tutorial and my adb shell denies super user permissions.

This guide is for people stuck on FRF83 because you can't revert to the older build where other guides worked.

If you are unlocked, this guide would be redundant for you. The purpose of this guide is to root without having to unlock, thus preserving your warranty.
Shell script version of loop.bat:
I assume this will work...
Code:
while true; do adb devices; done

EDIT: Got it rooted. wow that was easy.
Based on you providing links for recovery-RA-nexus-v.1.7.0.1.img, update-CM-5.0.8-N1-signed.zip, google addon EPF30; will the steps involving these install Cyanogen on my phone?
I was hoping to do this process without wiping my phone's memory and keeping my stock FRF83.

If you don't want the Cyanogen ROM or RA recovery just skip step #22 and stop with step #24. I didn't follow this tutorial as I did Booker-T's method with some tweaks but if you do what I said you should be fine.

You dont have to use that rom, you can flash any other rom as long as you have root. Paul obrien offeres a rooted FRF83 rom
I was able to do this without taking out / putting the SD card in (and thus avoided filing down my battery. I didn't run "loop.bat" until I was highlighting the Recovery icon, the ran it, when into Recovery, and adb picked it up.
Worked perfect!
Just, when flashing recovery, the better terminal emulator was giving me an error, i used Rom Manager to flash the recovery, and back to terminal to rm /system/etc/ blah blah ....GREAT Tutorial!

[How-To] Root the Slide with any sw verision and flash cust rom

First I want to thank all the developers here and I take no credit for this all i did was put together a full set of steps
Big thanks to nbetcher with help from ChiefzReloaded who ultimatley go the steps for the exploit needed and to 743c who developed the exploit
Following these steps from beginging to end will allow you to full obtain root and flash a new rom from begining to end. Follow each step and you will be good.
Easy root guide for the MyTouch slide currently any version downloads at bottom
Make sure before starting that the device has atleast 50% battery charge.
Go to C drive on pc and make a new folder we will call root
Copy then all the files from the zip into that folder.
___________________________________________________________
not required but you should also copy a rom that you want to use the the root of the sdcard on the device too then I have included teamfenix 1.7.1 as is a stable 2.2 android rom but you can use anyone you want.
___________________________________________________________
First we will need to get some files to the device would be easiest with a following settings already done:
settings > applications > development > USB debugging (check mark here)
settings > connect to pc > charge only
settings > wireless & networks > wifi unchecked (important)
settings > sound & display > screen timeout > never
Now connect device
Then start the command prompt and uses these commands to move the files we will need
cd C:\root
myroot (just allow to continue we covered the steps in it already)
Will take a few minutes for that to copy everything over to the places on the phone where we need them. will look like is frozen on ESPRIMG.zip that is normal don't interupt it just let it go.
when done we are now ready to actually get root and allow phone to let us get a recovery on there we can use with a few more commands
commands_______ things in () don't run just memos
adb shell
(should now see a $)
cd /sqlite_stmt_journals
chmod 0755 exploid
./exploid
(will have initated the loop hole to get root)
(at this time go to settings and turn wifi on and then back off before continuing)
./exploid
---The password is : secretlol
(You should now have a # instead of a $)
cd /data/local
chmod 04755 *
/data/local/flash_image misc /data/local/mtd0.img
_______________________________________________________________
ok now we are set to apply the engineering build to get a custom rom
Turn off the device
Press and hold volume down and then power up and hold both
let go when see the 3 skateboarding androids
give the phone a minute then will read the moded file on card
when is ready press volume up to apply this update
--- This will take a while just let it run
WAIT - when done it will ask you to reboot DON'T
press volume down for no
then back on bootloader screen press volume down once to highlight recovery and select with power to boot recovery
on the recovery you will have a device with a triangle
hold volume up and power for a second together
volume down and power to select for apply update.zip
and you will then be loaded into the clockwork recovery and will beable to flash the rom of your choosing from sd card.
You can use touch pad not to scroll down and select install zip from sd
select choose zip from sdcard
find your rom and apply
You are now rooted enjoy

This worked so well and for lack of a better word well it is perfect. My friend watched me, and saw how easy it was and he did his new mt3gs as well. Many thanks to all the peeps who worked on this and thanks to TheArtiszan for making this into english. I'm not that tech savy yet. As they say if I can do it anyone can. Thanks again
Error, read only file system
If you get read only errors, you may want to check out Radu Motisan's thread about how to "Write on the Android Read-only file system" on PocketMagic.net (sorry, can't post outside links yet. Just search for the quoted phrase on the aforementioned webpage to read the original post) Thank you Radu Motisan.
A brief overview:
Most of Android partitions are mounted as read only.
For eg. /system where most of the libs and other system components are stored, including the permissions.xml file.
You can temporary re-mount the /system partition to read write and load your new files to that partition!
using adb shell or the android terminal with root privileges, do the following:
See the currently mounted partitions:
Code:
# mount
Then re-mount to read-write the partition you are interested in , eg. /system:
Code:
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3
.../...
You can also:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs /
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
CAVEAT! Please read.
On my MT3GS I had to enter the command to remount the rootfs as read/write a little differently to make it work with my #TEAMSLIDE Kanged CM6
The command was:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount rootfs /
My mount command didn't like the "-t" tag. Works just fine without it for me.
Why did you copy+paste nbetcher's root method?

Does this work with a stock (unrooted) MTS3G? I don't have SU permissions, and even when using the aforementioned method you talked about, it still does not work

Command promps aren't working. You say to follow these steps and it's easy, but the steps are incomplete, and you assume the reader knows what you mean. Please break it down a little more. For example in the command promp you say to type cd C:\root the it says myroot, what does that mean? It's not as easy as you think.
The whole thing falls apart around the time I try and flash ESPRIMG.zip. I get into bootloader and it just skips right on by ESPRIMG.zip with "no image found" and of course when flashing update.zip from the memory card in recovery it fails the signature and refuses to flash. I cannot get into clockwork for the life of me.

Then you don't have the file ESPRIMG.zip on the root of your sdcard.
I've tried every root method for the slide and most of them worked but not without problems, this Root method is exactly down to the T, perfectly executed, no problems whatsoever. Thanks for everyone who helped make this happen and for the OP you made this super easy.
Did this on my first attempt, I was coming from stock with the OTA update and had no issues. Great job to everyone involved!

Video of the root...
Can someone please post a video of the rooting process? I'm deathly scared that I'm gonna mess something up and break my new phone. This is my first android phone and my first time rooting one. And in the video could you show how to get the Android SDK and how to get it ready to root? It would be soooo appreciated.

Perhaps you can try this guide which was written by a n00b, for n00bs. It consolidates a lot of details together and doesn't assume you already know about Android tools and hacking.

[NEWBIE GUIDE]Rooting and Flashing Custom Roms

Hi Folks,
Today TheF3nix requested me how to root and speed up the LG P500 Optimus One.
The best way to make the phone faster is to delete system apps or equal to flash a new system. In this guide i want to show you how to root delete system apps and flash new systems.
Step1: Rooting
Windows/Linux
First download SuperOneClick. Unzip the file and open the setup(.exe)
Before continuing make sure USB-Debugging(Settings > Applications > Development > USB-Debugging) is activated/ticked.
Connect your Device via USB to the PC.
Go to the SuperOneClick window and press the "Root"-Button
Wait till the process is finished. Close all Dialogs(Test, Donate) on PC.
After all finished Reboot your Device. If you don't do that Root will not work.
If the reboot finished the Phone is rooted
aravindsagar said:
Anyway, Super One Click will not work if the phone is running on stock 2.3.3. To root that, goto adb shell (see the next paragraph), type "echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf" (without the quotes) and then go to Super One Click, select psneuter exploit, and then click root.
To setup adb in your computer, see this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1387527 After setting up adb succesfully, type adb shell in the command prompt to get into the asb shell
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Mac/No PC
Download z4root to your phone/device and install it. Make sure Unknown Sources(Settings > Applications > Unknown Sources) is activated/ticked before install.
Before continuing make sure USB-Debugging(Settings > Applications > Development > USB-Debugging) is activated/ticked.
Open z4root and click "permanent-root"
Do not care if the screen becomes white. After one to two minutes you phone will reboot.
If the reboot finished the Phone is rooted

_________________________________________________________________________
Step: Removing System Apps
For this step we need Root Explorer or any other root filemanager.
If we have installed Root Explorer and launch it a popup will appear. In this popup rott explorer asks for root rights. Simple click allow, and root explorer is ready to work.
To delete system apps we go to system/app/ and there are the system apps.
To show how root explorer works we'll delete facebook for lg.
Now search for the apk. Long click on it and press delete. Press Ok and the file is deleted.
Or
Step: Installing Custom Rom
Search here at XDA for Roms. If you found a good download it to your SD-Card.
Install Clockworkmod Rom Manager from Google Playstore.
IOpen the App and allow Root Rights.
Press "Install Recovery" and choose "p500"
After the install is finished shut down
Now press Volume Down+Home+On to access recovery.
You can move between items with volume keys
Make a nandroid backup(Recovery > Backup/Restore > Backup) before you do anything with the recovery
If you've made a backup go to "Install zip from sd card" press home and choose "choose zip". Now go to your zip choose it with pressing "home". Follow the steps in the recovery.
Follow all other steps like clear data as its written in your roms thread.
Press "back" until you are at start.
If you're really sure you followed all relevant steps press reboot system now.
First Reboot take up to 5 minutes.
Here is another way to install recovery:
aravindsagar said:
Firstly, you need to download two files:
1. http://www.mediafire.com/?g6cgvutkqw4t4j6
2. http://www.mediafire.com/?7pkcte8gcyn9pet
Now, copy these two files and paste in the root of your SD card. Disable USB-MS, but keep the phone connected via the USB Cable, and make sure that USB debugging is enabled.
Then, go to adb shell, type su. Click allow in the phone if superuser request is coming (it didn't come for me, that's ok).
Now, type each of the following commands exactly as it is:
1. mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
2. cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
3. chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
4. mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak (if it gives error message here, simply proceed to the next step)
5. mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
6. flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img
7. reboot recovery
The phone will reboot now.
To access the Custom Recovery, turn off the phone and then press Home+Vol Down+Power button to boot into the Custom Recovery.
If on booting into the recovery you get the following message at the bottom of the screen -
E: "Bad Boot Message"
Don't panic, its perfectly normal and you can proceed with what you want to do from the recovery.
I've been using this recovery till now, and has got absolutely no problems till now. It wipes and flashes everything well.

Don't you think the post is kinda redundant? It's all explained in the stickies. But if this becomes useful, then by all means, carry on.
Anyway, Super One Click will not work if the phone is running on stock 2.3.3. To root that, goto adb shell (see the next paragraph), type "echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf" (without the quotes) and then go to Super One Click, select psneuter exploit, and then click root.

After trying to install CWM through ROM Manager, my phone did not boot. Finally I had to reflash stock firmware using KDZ. Then installed a recovery through ADB. If anyone needs detailed steps, just post a message, and I'll give the links.

Hi, glad you liked it !
Hi djibe,
thank you for this great guide. I followed it with a little extra work: I had to run AutoRec once to re-enable the download mode on the LG G2 d802 which was on stock 4.4.2 (also LGUP was not detecting my device: used Uppercut to got it recognized correctly). Second issue might be due to my own stupid way of trying all kind of tools to get the download mode working (again Autorec helped me --> Just in case someone else has similar issues).
Only real problem I had with your guide was at point 11 after installing LineageOS: The device got stuck in a bootloop to TWRP. I guess I solved it following this note:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...thermal-f2fs-2019-12-23.2898705/post-55892416
WARNING 2: DO NOT ENCRYPT F2FS - ROM and RECOVERY will BOTH bootloop and you'll be doing back to stock method!!!
If you want to use F2FS:
1) Make sure your kernel and ramdisk support f2fs (the dev of your ROM/kernel should have f2fs support noted). Dorimanx stock kernel as well as many AOSP kernels have full f2fs support.
2) Install and boot into my recovery.
3) Go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe, select /data, then click Change Partition Type. Select f2fs, and it will convert. Repeat this process for /cache.
4) Reboot the recovery, NOT reboot to system. DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL YOU REBOOT RECOVERY!!!
5) Reboot OS. That's it! You're ready to go.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Actually I didn't want to encypt anything (not sure where I should have done this???) or have a clue what are the pros/cons of using F2FS but I converted the mentioned partitions and installed LineageOS agian: Working without boot loop!
What I recognized during the installation in TWRP: I got a red error message "E:Unable to decrypt FBE device" do I need to worry about this (basically I just want a fresher Android and the usual Gapps on the device than 4.4, nothing fancy)? Or did I miss an important point in you guide?
Thank you!
Edit: I guess I forgot to reboot between installing Lineage, Bitgapps and Magisk! --> no need to format the /data and /cache partition
I found that at step 10
"Install > Magisk*.zip
When done message prompts, tap on Wipe Cache/Dalvik and Swipe to Wipe, wait.
Disconnect phone from PC.
Then tap on Reboot System."
When we choose Reboot System, we have to uncheck those two boxes and click DO NOT INSTALL. Otherwise it will do a TWRP bootloop.
After I figure this out, I can successfully install Android 11 on my G2.
Thank you for your guide~

It looks like computer is searching an USB device.
Go to Windows Device Manager to check if drivers are correctly installed.

The COM port can be tricky.
