[Q] HELP

I wanted to install latest cyanogen rom(SPQ Rom 0.6).
I went to recovery, have psf freedom recovery, and wipe data.
Then when I wanted to install zip, chose the rom and it wouldnt install.(error messege at bottom) Anyway now I can't go past the tattoo startup image before boot image. Can't do usb mass storage.
Is there a way to install new recovery image via fastboot, hboot.
Also tried the reset with phone turned off.
Nothing worked. Doesn't wipe correctly now also, "error mounting /sd-ext/!
Skipping format...
error message is as follow:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "bahamas" l l getprop("ro.build.product") == "bahamas l l getprop(ro.product.board") == "bahams"
E:Error in /sdcard/SPQRom-0.6.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

re:HELP
I am not an expert, but i think it could be from the SD card.
What partitions do you have on it?

Don't have any, because of the cyanogen rom. Do you think I have to format sd card?

If you did not partition the SD ,then in my opinion it is most likely from the recovery.But again that's only my opinion.

I'm thinking the same, because I flashed that psf freedom recovery when it were in its developing stages. When I wanted to flash new rom with that recovery it messed up my phone.
Is there a way to install new recovery via hboot?

went through command prompt. This is what I have so far.
fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.Tattoo.alpha2b.Mvx.img
<waiting for device>

Solved
I solved my problem by finding my backups of my sd-card om my computer. Luckily I had 1 nan backup and restored to that. Works like a charm again at last.
Also had to flash new recovery via adb, didn't want to work with recovery tattoo(from root tattoo in 1 click).

I have this problem too using the PSF recovery and I dont have any nandroid backups

Status 7 CM7

So I was trying to follow directions at this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLNv_-sEng4 to install CyanogenMod 7 on Captivate. But it fails after applying CM7. (at 6:44 on that video). It finds the package, opens it, but then errors out, (Staus 7). Heres what I did, and what I downloaded. First I copied "captivate-efsbackup.zip 2011-03-03 159.4 KB" and "update-cm-7-04282011-NIGHTLY-Captivate-signed.zip < 8 hours ago 94.1 MB" from "http://sourceforge.net/projects/teamhacksung/files/captivate/" and downloaded "cm7-captivate-initial-kernel.tar 2011-03-19 3.5 MB" from same website. (on video, file name is "cm7-Captivate-initial-20110304.zip"), I tried twice, and same thing. Heres the status when I try to apply CM7

please follow the WRITTEN instructions in the cyanogenmod thread. you are doing it wrong (you never used the initial zip).
please don't open new threads because you are incapable of reading.

oh, my bad... thats where the mistake is, i didnt see the initial, thank you, I will try that later.

one quick questions. instructions say
12. Apply zip from sdcard: cm7-DEVICE-initial-XXXXXXXX.zip
13. Do a factory reset / data wipe!
14. Reboot
15. Install the latest update after a reboot!
on step 14, do I have to boot into the android OS, and then restart into recovery mode, and select updated from sd card, and install the update?

Can't upgrade to The FroyoMOD 2.7.0 from 2.5.0

Figured it all out! Delete thread please.
Hey. I'm having some problems upgrading to the newest version of The FroyoMOD (2.7.0). I'm currently using 2.5.0.7 and I've got root.
Here's what I've tried so far:
Free version of Rom Manager: Install from SD-card -> Wipe Dalvik Cache -> phone reboots -> the load screen comes up and then hits 10% and I get the /!\ icon. Then the phone reboots yet again, but just into the old version (2.5.0.7).
Install through recovery: reboot into android system recovery -> apply sdcard:update.zip -> I get this error:
Code:
E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or dir)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
As soon as I get to the system recovery menu I also get this error message:
E:Can't open/cache/recovery/command
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, any help would be appreciated.

Installation cm11

Hi,
*
now the installation of cm 11 aborted. I try to explain my way for the installation and the problems. May be, someone can help me here.
*
1. I install overcome with odin.
2. I install the overcome kernel 4.0 with odin
3. After flashing the kernel I go to the overcome recovey and install the overcome rom with wipe. Systems starts and works fine.
4. Now, I start into the overcome recovery to install cm11 with the installation menu
5. The installation of cm11 begins. It is very short. The device makes a reboot and after the reboot I have the cm11 recorvery and now the problems begin.
6. At the start of the cm11 recovery I get these faults.
*
E: Can´t mount/cache/recovery/log
E: Can´t open/cache/recovery/log
E: Can´t mount/cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can´t Open/cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can´t mount/cache/recovery/last_install
E: Can´t Open/cache/recovery/last_install
E: failed to open last_install: Invalid argument
*
7. Now I start the installation of cm11 the second and third time. Everything is fine. Installation successful.
8. Then I start the installation of the micro google apps zip.
9. Meanwhile the installation I get the notification that I don´t have enough space free on the system. The Installation aborted.
10. Then I tried to format the device. First format data, cache, system. It ist all ok.
*
But I can´t format the storage sdcard 0.
I get the notification. “Could not format storage sdcard 0."
I need help please.
Thank you….

I must first admit that I never flash cm11 from stock/GB.
What if, you follow storm31 instruction? Restock, flash overcome kernel, then flash cm10.2 first, 3 times.
Then flash cm11, at least twice maybe?
Then flash Banks Gapps minimal as per storm31 thread.
Don't worry too much about sdcard first?
