Fix error

In this article I try to fix the problem when the Nexus One owners try to connect from Wired or Wireless and the connection cannot be done. To fix this issue you should update your Nexus One phone with a kernel that supports tethering, and after you update your kernel you can connect to Wireless and Wired.

Download the kernel update from here.

If you’re running on a user you should try to install like default installation.

Fix Nexus One problem

Step 1: First run a userdebug or eng build. This update won’t run on the user build, you will get verification failed;
Step 2: Download the update from here;
Step 3: Now you should copy the file to phone SD cars, but first rename the file into update.zip;
Step 4: In case that you have adb, try adb reboot recovery(more details for abd here);
Step 5: If you don’t have adb try the next steps:

• Power off your phone
• Turn it on whilst holding the trackball down
• At the boot screen, use the volume keys to select bootloader then press the power button to select
• At the next screen, select recovery and press the power button to select it
  

Step 6: The boot cross will appear, and shortly after a ‘!’ graphic will appear. Hold down the power button, then press volume up;
Step 7: You will see a menu with blue text. Use the trackball to highlight and select apply SD card update;
Step 8: The process should take a few seconds, after which you can reboot your phone;
Step 9: If you get verification failed you probably have a user build;
Step 10: You now have a tether-enabled kernel.

Next you can read the instructions for user build: All steps before step 12 are safe and wont touch your phone’s Rom /flash

Step 1: Get a copy of adb and fastboot (check the SDK or Google for them);
Step 2: Grab the Nexus One update zip and nexusone-zimage from the downloads page;
Step 3: Plug your phone’s USB in;
Step 4: adb reboot bootloader;
Step 5: When the bootloader screen appears: fastboot boot nexusone-zimage;
Step 6: Make sure the phone boots, if not, STOP

• Note that Wifi will not work at this stage.
• If the phone fails to boot, something is wrong. Pull the battery to reboot.

Step 7: Unzip the update zipfile, then adb push bcm4329.ko /sqlite_stmt_journals/;
Step 8: adb shell;
Step 9: su;
Step 10: insmod /sqlite_stmt_journals/bcm4329.ko;

• If an error appears doing this, STOP;

Step 11:  lsmod;

• You should see ‘bcm4329′ listed. If not, STOP;

Step 12: mount -w -o remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system;
Step 13: cat /sqlite_stmt_journals/bcm4329.ko > /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko;
Step 14: Logout out of the phone;
Step 15: adb reboot bootloader;
Step 16: When the boot screen appears: fastboot flash zimage nexusone-zimage;
Step 17: fastboot reboot;
Step 18. Your Nexus One should come up;
