Default Trying to get cyanogen rom on my MyTouch...

I did every step and when I installed the app installer then using flashrec 1.1.3, after I had installed recovery flasher. Then I hit restore back up image, says flash complete and then I hit restore back up image...flash complete but there's no url at all. Here's where I got my sources...

Then can you download the following files the following files from this page .

* Download the COC10 build of Cupcake from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BLM4EDGE (sappimg.nbh)
* Download the latest version of FlashRec from http://zenthought.org/content/project/flashrec
* Download the HTC Android 1.6 base image:
o http://www.androidspin.com/downloads...ooted_base.zip
* Download the latest CyanogenMod ROM for your device:
o http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/upda...3.1-signed.zip

If someone can please help me out!

*bump* anyone? It's not giving me a default url so I can't get the recovery image. I read all the process on WIKI as well.

What do you mean by a 'URL'?

Here's the correct order of instrcutions:

1) Get Cyanogen's recovery image here
2) Put in on the root of your sdcard, call it 'recovery'
3) Open flash rec and choose the backup option.
4) There should be a box to type the location of the recovery image you want to flash. Type /sdcard/recovery.img

After that's flashed you can then flash the HTC image from recovery, then the Cyanogen Mod ROM.

When I open flashrec app, it won't let me hit download image button right after I hit back up button. The box on the flashrec app comes up empty. My friend was telling me it should say something on there. I'll try it your way.

The box should be empty, inside it you need to type "/sdcard/recovery.img" then hit flash. Use this video as a reference.

I typed it in the box but still nothing. The larger button doesn't say cyanogen. It just says download recovery image.I followed what the video says. Maybe I didn't get the correct files? I'm also using Linda File Manager.

I have the SAPPIMG.nbh file on there. Rebooted my phone and then took the file off.

Then I installed flashrec-1.1.3-20091107-2.apk

Are you sure that's all I need to type?
