Hi,
I'm planning to go "Cold Turkey" and revert back to a Optus Australian Android released ROM from Maxishima's Mod. However, upon renaming this file ( https://android.clients.google.com/updates/signed-dream_stg-ota-150708.f39cafb4.zip ) to update.zip and entering the recovery to flash it, I wiped the phone and then applied the update...
But it spat back a response like "No signature (429 Files)" and then "Verification Failed". I'm using CyanogenMod Recovery v1.3.
The reason I want to go back is that all the features of custom ROMs are good and whatnot, but I would like to revert back to a stock ROM.
Is this possible or do I have to hack away at something? Answers are welcomed...
Cheers,
Coburn64

hEY GUYS,
I need your help you guys. I have a
. Rooted Nexus1
. Froyo F50.
. Amon Ra's Recovery.
Now i am trying to update to the FR83 update floating around but it will require the stock recovery so how do i revert back to the stock recovery or is there a repack FR83.zip that i can flash using the custom recovery ???
STill how do i revert back to the stock recovery???
Thanks people.
You all are awesome.
Regards,
Nadeem
I would download paul's frf83. You won't need to use the stock recovery for it. http://android.modaco.com/content/g...-frf83-stock-rooted-deodex-superboot-repacks/
get FRF83 stock rooted + insecure + ChainsDD's Superuser app update zip
----------------------------------------------
to reload the original recovery image:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614850
Download the original shipping image zip. unzip recovery.img to the folder with adb.
Do steps 1-5 and then 12.
Also, this should be in the Q&A forum
Thanks worker 1. Is Paul's frf83 tempered with in anyway ? i was trying to get stock frf83 on my N1 to see what kind of work has been done by google before trying out work of these gifted developers like paul and cyanogen
Not tampered with in any way like new launcher and things like that. Other than what mentioned they are out-of-the-box clean.
I still have my original recovery done with Amon.. Always a tip to have that saved on a hardrive when flashing Roms for the first time.
I have nexus one. This is my story. I had rooted my phone using universial android. I installed cyanogen mod and was a very happy user until I saw the MIUI Rom and then I flashed that. Then I saw that it was to unstable so I restored to a backup I made of cyanogen. After I started using cyanogen mod again it was very unstable and had random reboots and lots of force closes. So I just decided I was done with the rooting business so I was gonna use a passimg. Acsently I flashed the Korean passimg and I can't flash any of the other ones(except the frg33one because i cant update to frg83 after and lose root) So on the Korean Rom I rooted and installed clockworkmod. Then I noticed I couldn't install any custom rom(i tried CM6, CM6RC3,MIUI)and I kept getting errors.So while I was in clockwordmod restored one of my old stockrom backups before i had flashed any roms and it worked. But still when went to go and try and flash a rom it still gave me errors. But the most ANNNOYING thing of all is i would flash clockwordmod in rommanager than i would touch reboot to recovery. It worked. I got into clockwordmod but then when i would try and go back again a second time it wouldn't be there. It would be the stock android recovery and even when i would go to recovery though the bootloader it would still be stock recovery. I dont know what to do. As i said my bootloader isnt unlocked because i dont want to void my warrenty. my inital plan was if i ever needed to return this ting i could just i could just run a passimg and restore to to stock everything and there would be no traces. If i have to return my phone it would have to be last resort because I live in Canada and I would have to play ridiculous duties and taxes on it. Now i just want to make sure im able to install gingerbread on when it comes out. Also i forgot to mention that everytime i try to update my phone to 2.2.1 it always fails even though im on stock recovery(although even when i go into recovery and it is the stock recovery rommanager still says im running clockwordmod) PLEASE HELP!!!
ps. Im only 13 but i consider myself to be pretty techsmart for 13. I wouldnt mind using cmd/terminal and im running ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop.

If you installed the original passimg then you'll have 2 files you'll want to remove if you don't want the stock recovery to keep flashing back when you reboot
Remount /system rw and remove:
rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p
Remove those, flash your custom recovery and you should be good to go.
With respect to the errors: Clear out the cache and dalvik-cache. Wipe and install your rom of choice, be it a stock repack, CM6, Enom etc.
With Amon's latest recovery *1.8.0.1 you can flash both signed (google) and signed (test) packages, so the official update will flash as well as a repack. If you flash the official 2.2.1 remember to pull remove those 2 files again or it will blow away your custom recovery on reboot.
My nexus has been a great platform for running roms for quite a while now, but after installing CM6 as of late it has been really picky about what it can flash. For instance the only way I got it to install the normal stock rom afterwards was by putting it in as passimg.zip. Every time I try to flash something to it now, the signature verification fails. Anyone else have this problem?
Edit: If I install a rooted room, it gives me
"assert failed: !less_than_int(1277930906, getprop("ro.build.date.utc"))
E: Error in /sdcard/update blah blah .zip
(Status 7) Installation Aborted
Did you lose root?
I don't think so, I could try unlocking the boot loader again but it says unlocked at the top already...and it won't even flash normal signed passion roms...
what recovery do you have? have yopu tried fastboot flash recovery? like amon rah
I ended up using
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614850
to fix it.
It still refuses any update.zip file that isnt OTA...
every signature varification fails instantly. So I guess until I throw this phone in the trash pile or just use it for an MP3 player..its not going to be doing anything in the way of modding
If you've used the original shipping ROM tutorial/passimg, then you'll have a stock recovery that will of course only install released signed things.

right and I flashed clockworks recovery to get it off the standard. I guess I could go out and get Root again without it, but at this point I don't see the point with Gingerbread coming out. I'm just glad to not have a paper weight sitting next to my computer again.
btw Calling Tmo/HTC doesn't help. Most of the guys there don't have a clue what FRG83 is even lol
Keep in mind, if you have the stock on there, it will wipe out your custom recovery and restore it to the stock recovery every time you restart the phone.
So if you flashed Clockwork, after a reboot the stock recovery will be there again.
Yes amonra and cwr have options to toggle off verification best to start with amonra recovery then go through the steps
Hello all my fellow Huawei P7 users. Last week, I finally decided to update my Huawei from EMUI 2.3 (B136) to "next level". For some reason, when I tried to download the rom through Updater, error was reported. something with "checksums". So I download rom, and tried "local update"... and it's gone (TWRP was installed, don't know if this could be reason). So yeah, our beloved bootloop became my second friend. So I tried to restore stock rom, with stock recovery 3.0, extracted from updater.app, recovery.img and boot.img, created dload on sd, started procedure, "Verifying install package" and at some point just "FAIL". Tried even with the first stock ROM (Because in manual there was no "previous versions") still got "FAIL". Tried to install "MyRom 1.2", again bootloop, as far I concerned it's because I don't have "stock rom". So I tried, X-Rom. and you know what, it worked without any problems. Even though I like it, I still want back to stock ROM. So I want to ask you my dear friend. how I can get back my stock ROM? If I again try "very first stock rom" and it will "FAIL", is there anything else I can to do bring back my stock? Or maybe someone knows, why it "fails" to verify package

If I'm getting this right, you're currently on EMUI 2.3. If that's true, you'll need older version of TWRP like 2.8.1.0 for EMUI 2.3. Once in recovery you need to wipe ALL DATA by confirming YES. Once everything deleted you'll be able to flash stock recovery and force-update the stock ROM (EMUI 2.3). I had a similar problem until I realised that I was using wrong version of TWRP.
hey, I installed a custom ROM with twp. after the installation I figured out that the rom don't work properly(I tried any rom possible but each one had some issues ) so I tried to get back to stock and couldn't do it.
I tried putting an update file into a "dload" folder on my SD and then going to stock recovery (I flashed it manually through adb) and tried to flash it but it failed every time.
does anybody knows what should I do to get back to stock?
You can't flash custom ROMs one over another, usually each one must be flashed only from the appropriate stock ROM(s) - because their ZIP files overwrite various system partitions and in different combinations.
Also, you can't install every stck ROM by DLOAD, and neither from any unknwn state/mess (good luck, after all the phone wasn't bricked).
You should know from which stock ROM you originally started and you want now to go back (no info above?!).
If iit was one of the stock ROMs listed in the following post, you may flash the corresponding HWOTA.zip and do a Factory reset as described:
