    Default Rooted G1, just have a few questions...


    Alright, I rooted my phone and am running CyanogenMod 4.2.3.1 (great mod!).
    (1) I want to make a NANDroid backup, but don't know how. I've been using this site http://code.google.com/p/android-rom...ANDROID_Backup to look at, but the first step it has is to use one of JF's mods, and I don't want to switch...
    (2) Also, how do I partition my SD card so that I can utilize my phone's memory better?
    (3) How does tethering work? It sounds like a fantastic idea, but I don't know where to begin with it. Do you just plug in the USB cord and voila? (I haven't tried this yet because I don't want to screw something up.
    (4) Is there a link to get Android 2.0 for my phone, and is there a mod that is stable for it yet?
    (5) How do I put the new Google Navigation Beta on my G1?

    Any help is greatly appreciated! I'm a by-the-book person, so instructions help a ton! Also, I think if someone has the same questions, it'll help! Thanks again!

    seems to be down right now but go to:
    wiki.cyanogenmod.com

    you need to upgrade your bootloader. once you do there is a NANDROID option when you boot into recovery mode. it's all in the wiki from what i recall.

    So I just saw that Cyanogen came out with a new Mod (4.2.4). I have 4.2.3.1. How do I upgrade? Links that give SPECIFIC instructions are great (if you know of any).

    it's just like you put on 2.3.1

    put the zip for 2.4 on your sdcard. restart in recovery. flash. reboot. done

    if you boot into recovery , if you installed cyans recovery , there is an option for a nandroid backup and a nandroid restore .
