PLEASE READ – PLEASE READ – PLEASE READ – PLEASE READ ****YOU MUST BE ROOTED**** *** New update at the bottom of the description 2-10-10*** Step 1 DOWNLOAD THIS FILE download510.mediafire.com Save to desktop Step 2 Take the smoked glass zip file and extract it to the desktop, you may rename the folder to what you want, but DO NOT tamper with the files inside! Step 3 Drag the folder that you just extracted (smoked glass v4) to your sdcard- YOU MUST PLACE IT IN THE “nandroid” folder, no other location, no other subfolders. Step 4 Reeboot in recovery mode – Power on by pushing power button and holding X at the same time. Step 5 Go to advanced nandroid restore, click on choose backup, find the ROM you want, in this case, smoked glass v4, then hit the enter button, then leave the default options checked, hit perform restore, then back out by pushing the power button, then hit reboot, and your done!

THANK YOU!! You have taught me alot, was a little scarred at first you walked me thru it perfectly. I didnt know but some of the file names need to be shortened or I recieved an error code, once the ROM name was shortened it when right in like perfectly!!! Thank you very much!!!!
Same here… Get “ERROR: Nandroid exited with status 25. Only have one file in the directory. Any other ideas?
You have to delete the extra smokedglass folder in the nandroid directory. When you look in the directory you might have one smokedglass4.5 folder inside the other. If so delete it. It fixed the problem for me.
I also have a question. I switched from the droidmod rom to the smoked glass 4.5 rom today because I like the launcher better. But I can’t find the wifi tethering app. Anyone know where it is on smokedglass 4.5? Thanks
exact same thing
@wallmartkiller
Got the same thing, any thoughts anyone?
After I choose “Perform Restore” I get “ERROR: Nandroid exited with status 25″.
I have the smoked glass theme in the root of the nandroid folder and have not messed with its contents either.
Any thoughts?
thanks for a great tutorial. i have successfully installed the smoked glass rom but i cannot restore back to my default rom. when using the SPRecovery to do an advanced Nandroid restore i get “ERROR: Nandroid exited with stus 21″… any suggestions?
is there anyway to have live wallpapers with this
how do i get that widget you have? I installed the rom but it doesn’t show. thanks
why does it take forever for the moto sign to come off and boot faster
any one having issues with weather channel not opening?
After following your directions when I did the reboot the motorola sign came on and noting else. It will flash off but just comes back on. can you help me?
I honestly would try whiping the cache partition, then whiping data factory reset from the Recovery menu first. THEN load the ROM, that might help a bit, yea youll have to reinstall your apps but honestly you shouldnt be having this many issues. Hope this helps…
seems smoked glass is super buggy on my droid… i open the keyboard and i get an FC… cant view the pics on my SD card without multiple FCs. is there any other roms that enable multi touch and tethering that aren’t as buggy?
You’re awesome bro, thanks for taking the time out to help ppl out with this, installed the rom, love it to death. Thanks again bud!
Hey DroidReview. Love your stuff. Quick question though. I have smoked glass installed and all, but now i want to try bugless beast. How do i switch from smoked glass to bugless beast? Thanks in advance!
@zharquan YES its pretty difficult to make your own custom ROM, alot of the devs out there actually use parts from other ROM’s and compile them into there own custom, you must know how to use programing code, C++, Pearl, stuff like that.
Yes overclocking video is on its way!!
@IAMSBACK Might be an issue with the 2.1 gallery – Mine works fine though.. Thats weird
@stvn2569 When using sholes you can only use the themes that are packaged with the actual ROM. I think sholes 2.0.5 has the smoked theme option though… Check into that..
i have the sholes 2.0.5 rom installed on my Moto Droid My question is can I download the Smoked Glass theme or other rom themes or am I only able to use Sholes themed roms?
Yo the dude…install SG everything runs smooth only one problem, I cant see my pictures; its always force closing, is it a glitch?
I had a question about custom ROMS. Does it take alot of knowledge to make one? If you know how could you make a Tutorial Video? Also are you still going to make a Tutorial video about Overclocking the phone?
hi great vid i have installed this rom and i have a question when i did my droid root helper i installed the skull boot animation, does anyone no how i can getthat off my phone cause i want the nexus one boot animation?? thanks
Hi first of all thank you for your videos, they are great and are easy to follow. I do have a question though my phone now after rooting and adding the ROM, it became a little bit more slow and for some reason sometimes restarts randomly. Any advice? Thanks.
you are the man, ive used your root, nandroid backup, and your how to install rom videos, many props man i was a total noob and now i feel comfortable enough to actually enjoy my phone keep up the good work man!!!
