Help Flashing new Radio vis CWR 3.005 - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Trying to install new radio 5.12.00.08 n1 Korea
Trying to install via CWR but it keeps aborting. I have tried other sources and even another radio. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.
FYI i am currentl on Formels lasted MIUI have tried to install radio on Rod's an GRI40 as well. same result.
Thanks

The new version of clockwork will not work with older zip files (the script has changed) . Use rom manager to flash amon RA, flash your radio and then switch back to clockwork if you like.

[Please help] First time installing custom rom, does not work.

This is the first time I am rooting and installing a custom rom. Please help me!
I followed the instructions on the first page of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814091 but I can't get this ROM to install. I get the following message...
E: Can't symlink /system/bin/cat
E:Failure at line 6:
symlink toolbox SYSTEM:bin/cat
Installation aborted.
I have tried installing both the latest version (7) and 5.6.
What can I do?
which firmware is on your device? are you rooted?
try Docs or darky's rom and do not unzip the rom file. put on internel SD
Im on JM9 (Eclair) and trying to install darkys rom (tried both v.7 and 5.6). I am not rooted as it says in darkys installation guide:
"- Either an 2.1 Eclair Firmware
- or Froyo and a kernel with Recovery 2e [by ChainFire] to flash 'update.zip' files."
I am on Eclair (I downgraded from Froyo with Odin). I have put it on internal SD and I have not unzipped it.

After eclair you have to flash clockwork recovery mod (cwm) after that you are able to flash modded roms

Did you use lag fix?? disable it first.
Or you can also try ROM Manager (d/l from market) to flash ClockWork recovery.
By the way, for which part that you got struck??

Yes, get a hold of Clockwork recovery (linked in Darky's post I think but you can just search for it), rename it update.zip and put it in the root of your internal SD, then using 2e recovery apply it (twice) to get into clockwork recovery from which you can flash custom ROMs etc.
I have got past what you describe. The error message comes when I am trying to install the actual darky rom from CWM.

Hmmm..perhaps you have a broken download? Try this. On your computer, open the Darky ROM with winrar or 7zip or something similar. Does it open fine? Or does it give an error of some sort? If it does show an error, redownload and make sure it's working.
This was the case for people always getting stuck with similar errors while flashing custom ROMs
It opens fine. I have also tried both v.7 and version 5.6.

Rename it only to
Update
As it is already a .zip file

Should I try to reset Dalvik?
Did you try a different rom like a doc rom or one from jim pansee to see if the problems are just with darkyys rom?

Have not tried another custom rom yet. I obviously should try that.

[Q] crazy rebooting issues with custom roms

hopefully this is where this goes. >_> if not, please guide me to where i need to be.
OK. so what is going on:
-right now i am using a STOCK version of 2.2.1 FRG83D, that i rooted with superoneclick.
-i used rom manager to flash RA recovery, because somehow i can't flash roms with clockwork anymore. errors out every time, regardless of version
-i can flash new custom roms using RA, etc etc, but cannot flash roms and restore to old backups
-if i try to USE a custom installed rom, no matter which it is (i have tried a few gingerbread, nxsense, and some 2.2.1 roms), they will ALWAYS reboot after using them for a few seconds, regardless of what i am doing (setting up, using market, or just letting it sit and do nothing)
what i have done before this happened:
-i was using nxsense perfectly fine. great rom, ran great.
-updated rom manager, and clockwork recovery
-tried to flash a new boot animation, but noticed that the new clockwork won't install older .zips that use assert-scripts(?)
-tried to downgrade clockwork, and it randomly restarted the phone during the downgrade
-wanted to try gingerbread, so i flashed the new(er) hboot 0.35.0017 even though i think i had it already, and installed the rom succesfully.
-the rom wouldn't let me download from the market, as it restarted when i tried to download anything.
-i thought the problem was with the new hboot, so i went through a tutorial to revert it back to 0.33.0012 and went back to eclair, so i updated up to frg83d (and obviously got the 0.35.0017 hboot back through updating) and rooted.
the rom i am using now (stock with root) runs fine. haven't really found any real problems.
i just have NO clue why i can't use custom roms. i would absolutely LOVE if someone could help me on this.
I also had similar problem two days ago. I upgraded my clockworkmod recovery to 3.0.0.5 and tried to flash MM CM7 v14. All the problem began. I cannot restore any custom roms except the stock froyo and MM CM7 restarts like crazy whenever I try to install any apps from the market. After that, I also tried RA recovery. No luck. Luckily, I finally find out that the latest recovery messes up my ext3 partition. So, I backup and format my SD card, recreate ext3 partition, restore the SD card, downgrade clockworkmod to 2.5.1.4, wipe everything, fix permission and install MM CM7. It finally works. Hope this help.
PS: as long as I downgrade the clockworkmod, I can restore any custom roms.
Never flash now you will brick it soon

Latest ClockworkMod was known to have some problem, perhaps.
Use Amon_Ra's, if you want to be sure, and wipe everything (data & dalvik-cache) when going from ROM to ROM. Use Titanium Backup for restoring the apps.

You're welcome. Glad to know my experience can help solving yours too.
Definitely a problem with Clockwork 3.0.0.5! I just went through madness trying to figure out WTF was up as well. The only fix was to completely format and re-partition my card then use RA instead of CW, works great now and I don't know if I will use CW again! What a pain...kinda regret having paid for ROM Manager now after this latest fiasco.

[Q] Help with Clockwork Recovery

I installed ROM manager and flashed clockworkmod recovery but when I hit reboot into recovery it goes into the normal android recovery screen. I also tried doing a backup of my old rom but it just reboots into stock recovery screen and doesn't actually do the backup. I tried installing ROM from SD, same thing. I've tried different recovery versions (2.5.1.1, 2.5.1.2) but they all do the same thing. I'm rooted and it has superuser permissions, so that's not the problem. I have ROM manager premium. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling ROM manager. Please help.
Try installing it through stock recovery. (reinstall pakages)
What firmware you using?
rom manager is only good for eclair and froyo
there isnt a correct update.zip for the captivate on gingerbread.
if on gingerbread flash a kernel with CWM (clockwork) built in.
if on froyo/eclair you must select *reinstall package* from android recovery TWO TIMES in a row!
except FROYO has recovery3e also.....it will not allow unsigned update.zip files.
Ok. I'm on Froyo 2.2. Stock firmware. Trying to get either Fasty II or Cyan. First time doing all this. All this started with the GPS problem... (I know, I know. There's a thread for that.) Plus, I am interested in other ROMs. Just praying I don't kill my phone in the process.
you need to look at Odin/heimdall a CWM kernel, or fixing your recovery 3e to accept unsigned zips
^That. Fasty II needs Gingerbread bootloaders
OK. Well, really, I think I'd like to go Gingerbread. I dunno. There's too many to choose from. I want to get CWM working first. Where's the forum to install manually? There's so many places to look...
If you are going to GB flash a leaked stock first that contains boot loaders. Does your phone take well to 1 clicks?
Augh! I used Odin to flash the kernel. I had a temporary success. I had cwm up and it backed up my old rom. I rebooted twice into cwm. Third time, it reverted back to old android recovery. Like I said... Augh!
-Typed while driving on my Captivate- []
Flashed it again. Got CWM back up. Now, moving on to figuring out getting gingerbread. Any tips here are greatly appreciated as long as they make sense.
Also, what is 1 clicks?
Odin 1 click that will flash a leaked stock rom like 2.3.3 KF1 or 2.3.4 KH3 or 2.3.5 KI2. If they include Bootloaders you can just flash a cwm kernel and ready to flash any rom you like.
