Sounds to me like he wanted to root but hasn't put a root recovery on yet.
either root or wait for the ota update. you can not flash an update.zip unless it is an official watermarked rom or you are rooted
follow this guide to gain root

ummm skater what the hell are you talking about t-mobile sent out ota for donut so what difference does it make it you have a unrooted phone
from what i have heard, there is not an ota for the uk yet, and @skater
people are getting ota's for donut in uk

First.. Why would you start new tread if you could post your question in the Energy ROM tread in which you would get much easier answer????
Second: reading and understanding before moving towards to possibly screw up your device is first thing to understand
Anyhow if you wanted ROM as same as in the picture then you need to flash Energy.BLACKSTONE.23542.Sense2.5.Mar.05.7z

Did you install hspl or use uspl to flash the rom? Read the following - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377.
ok, 2 users have responded to assist you.
Firstly, Bulldog, who quite rightly asked why you didn't post this in the NRG thread in this forum instead of creating a new thread
Secondly, ClydeB1, asked whether you used HSPL or USPL which looks like a good starting point, and he also directed you to thread.
I suggest you ask the question about rom in NRG thread and ask for flashing assistance in dummies guide thread (link from ClydeB1)

Yes, buy a different branded phone
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
oh my god...
install=reflashing
adb shell
then replace the files that differ ^^
I doubt that this would let your phone stay in a working state
This is exactly the kind of thread that should *not* be made in Development.

First of all, this question belongs to Q and A section.
Guys, I think he meant, he don't want to flash stock firmware using ODIN but want to move to another custom ROM. If this is the right thing I guessed. Remember following things -
1. Make sure both the ROMs are cooked on same BASE (e.g. JVR)
2. Download the WIPE version of another ROM (That will WIPE all the data from existing data)
3. Flash it using CWM
If the base is same, I doubt there would be any issues after installation.
Please read the rules and WATCH THE VIDEO Post in appropriate section.
Regards,
Rahul

just a small question: how many threads are you aiming for?
you already have two out of three closed by the mods... what do you expect here.
If you want help (and you are receiving it!!!), stop multi-threading and cross-posting. You're not going to get anywhere if less than 20% of information needed is posted in 4 different threads!
I can understand if you are frustrated etc. but you are not helping yourself by opening multiple threads! stick with one thread and post the information asked for by those who are helping you.

where's your original (active) thread, i'll take a look later...
But unable to mount cache is normal after a fastboot erase cache, and unable to mount otg is also normal if you don't have one connected.
and the failed to flash zip, is probably because it's a bad download or not a rom at all.
link me the other thread, and let this one die out.

here's where we are at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52251496
Since the moderator closed my thread without even reading what I wrote, as if a bot or something, let me try again....
Can anyone recommend an Android 4.4x ROM that works rooted, and works with the latest TWRP?
I want all the basic features to work. I read that Viper won't work with the compass with changing the kernel, and Bad Boyz Sprint ONE ROMz won't work with the latest TWRP.
I don't want to install 20 different ROMs and test each when other people already did that already, that's the whole point of the internet.
Sorry but I saw your last thread and he was right to close it. Roms can't be recommended. Isn't a written rule but it's common courtesy. To recommend a Rom is to say that one Rom is better than another. Do you understand what I mean

OK, so lets re-cap. You posted this already and were asked not to do so:

Best thing to do is read and flash and find out what's best/solid for you.

Yet here you are posting the same again.
Now you are breaking XDA rule by spamming the forum.
(please take note of rule 7 and now 2.3)
So let me reiterate.
No Best Rom request threads.
Why? You ask.
This is a forum for development
This IS NOT a forum for comparison.
If this thread were open for long enough, you would end up with fighting between users that feel the rom they use is the best.
~Hence, no straight answer
~Hence, you end up trying several
~Hence, you realize, the mod you ignored has much wisdom
so ends the lesson of why we close these threads.
Thank you
