and now on the screen of my hero is has a phone lying down with and exclamation sign to the left of it?????

It booted your phone in to recovery but because the recovery image didn't flash it's just sitting at that screen. Pull the battery from your phone and then turn it back on and it will be fine, no worries.

As for the commands you copy and pasted... the reason it didn't work is because the 1st half of the commands didn't work properly so the "root" utility didn't have the ability to do what it's supposed to do. That's why you see "permission denied" and "Operation not permitted". Can you copy and paste the following file here:

c:\folder-with-kitchen\adb\root-debug.txt

Oh so yea it didn't finish pushing the files. It's probably failing for the same reason that the themes were failing on some people's computers. I can fix it. Are you on gtalk? PM me your email if you are and I can send you a test version to try with.

It sounds like you are running the stock rom still. Fresh pre-kitchen is designed for use on fresh rom.

Flipz, quick question for you...

If I'm understanding right, when you want to add programs back to the phone, the kitchen will create a zip file and push it to your SDcard when your phone is connected through ADB.. is that right? Then, you boot into nandroid and run the zip from there?

If so, would it be possible for you to create an option in future versions which would allow the zip to be pushed to the local drive and copied manually to the phone? I prefer doing it that way, because I'm usually repeating the process on multiple phones for my friends.

Nope, not at all. You pick what programs you want to add and it just pushes them straight to your phone. It doesn't create a zip or push it to your sdcard. It just pushes the apk's directly to your phone.

In fact, I can't get the "add apps" feature to work for me at all, even though ADB. when I select the programs I want to add and click the install button, it flashes a command prompt window on my screen for about a quarter of a second, and then... nothing.

I've got a with google hero, rooted, fresh 1.0, and trying to install via a vista premium x64 OS with good drivers...

No error messages.. when I click the test command from the help screen, it tells me all is well.

Any help?

Thanks for the explanation.. I must have misread something a few days ago...

I'm having the same problem.. everything else seems to work just fine.
