Guest madhedgehog Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Hi, I bought a nexus one off ebay a few days back and it turns out it had been rooted and so was still on Android 2.1 (EPE45B). Using this link I installed the FRF50 froyo software using these instructions and it all work except now I have no market app and it's not installed on the phone at all! I'm a complete beginner when it comes to this sort of thing and basically just want my phone as update to date as possible, I'm not to fussed about doing weird and wonderful things with it with different ROM's. What's the best way for me to get onto froyo with a market place app please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking around and I downloaded the vendor.apk file but even that doesnt want to install. As a complete beginner, where would I find an original ROM to install and then how do I install it?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a complete beginner, where would I find an original ROM to install and then how do I install it?! From what I've read ROOTING is easy, but playing with a rooted phone is fraught. My advice [for what its worth] Is hold back on ROM'S and work with what you've got! ... Read the Chinese link and work from that! RGDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
