[Q] I got S-OFF On Incredible S, but I still need help!

Hi Guys, I got my Incredible S (IS) successfully S-OFF using the beta of AlphaRev X.
I made the donation because the work the AlphaRev X have done is great
I used the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122694 to install the clockworkmod and recovery, and it was completely successful. What I did is I obtain the right Clockworkmod Recovery for my IS I have now the ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.0.1 on my Incredible S.
New the two problem I am facing is:
1- When I flash a language package (so that I will be able to read Arabic using the same original ROM which comes with the device) , the installing gets aborted and unsuccessful. Although, I used the same language packaged which I used it for my old Desire HD and now both are Froyo .
The message I gets on Recovery page is :
-- Installing : /sdcard/Arabic_DHD_2.2.1 _FIX_Browser_RTL. Zip
Finding update package…
Opening update package…
Installing update …
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the clockworkMod 3.0 Ginger bread based recovery. Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update Zip Package .
Installation aborted
Well, I don’t know that all mean and I don’t know how I would fix this. It seems so complicated
Please would any Developer out there help!
2- I tried to flash a custom ROM by LeeDrOiD_HD_V 2.2.3, but also didn’t work. The message I gets is:
-- Installing : /sdcard/LeeDrOiD_HD_V2.2.3. Zip
Finding update package…
Opening update package…
Installing update …
Checking Model ID
Assert failed: getprop(“ro. product .device”) ==”

getprop(“ro.product.board”) ==”ace”
E:Error in /sdcard/ LeeDrOiD_HD_V2.2.3. Zip
(Status 7)
Installation aboard.
Please would anyone of developer help me in getting this issue fixed. I really would appreciate it the effort and the reply. All I care about is the a ROM ( cocked or custom ROM) which can read Arabic and not losing the S-OFF I have got from AlphaRev X. thank you for your time and you support! I tried to post my question through the XDA Incredible S developer sub-forums link, but it refused. Please would anyone help me! Thanks for reading my email.

I believe I got it already rooted and installed recovery for the IS from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122694 (Root and Recovery) but still working on the flashing Arabic thing. would you please tell me how I would check whether I have already permanent root in my device or not? Because it seems I do have but I need to check to make sure I did. For root thing I followed the instruction in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122694 (Root and Recovery) and Installed the “su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip” file and it was successful.

Did u do this?
To root:
Copy su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip to your sdcard root
Start clockworkmod recovery (instructions below)
Select "install zip from sdcard"
Then select "Choose zip from sdcard"
Then select "su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip"
Then select "Yes - install su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip" to confirm
Then go back
Then reboot.
You're rooted!

Yes, this is what exactly I did.

I believe if I flash this official HTC ROM , I will eventually lose the S-OFF by AlphaRev X

That's right...

Right. Also recovery too. Don't try it unless neccesary. It requires great effort to get the things back to position.

If you read carefully it says that it cannot flash because you are trying to flash desire hd roms... go over to the inc s dev section and pick one there.
Desire HD roms will not work on the incs.
However you can try and edit the update script that it reads vivo instead of ace.
Im not responsible for failure hh

[Q] need help for update, please.

trying to update my rooted nexus one, but it dose NOT go well for a few times. it got a following message;
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
how can i fix it?
thanks in advance.

When you say rooted do you mean there is a custom ROM installed? If so then you won't be able to update with an update file you will need to do is with a whole ROM file such as passimg. So check out passimg (look at my sig) then you should be prompted for an upgrade as soon as you boot up.

no, my one is just gingerbreaked. im trying to update it to 2.3.6 or 7.
thanks,

Rooted phone won't update.

you may or not update rooted phone. we all know that.

you may or not update a rooted phone. we all know that. i don't need this kind of reply. let me clarify my question.
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signarure verification failed
Installation aborted.
what do these message mean? and can i fix it?
thx

The message is self-explanatory.
The file doesn't pass signature check.
Which means - it's either corrupted or wrong.

what you say is what the message say.
it won't be a solution.

Once u rooted ur phone, U can't simply update the OTA version... neither manually..
Now to update to the latest android official, U need to "UNROOT" ur phone first and then u'll get what u want. How to "unroot," Read 'Dude Random21's' Signatures.
U can't have an official android and custom ROM running simultaneously on ur phone

The solution should be obvious:
Download the correct and non-corrupted update, and apply.
You're not giving any information about your error, besides the error itself, and expect the forum to help you. For example, if you're doing it through custom recovery which you installed instead of the stock Android recovery - it won't be able to read Google original update files, since they have different signatures, and you'll need to turn off the signature check in the recovery. On the other hand, if the message appears on stock recovery - it can only mean a corrupted or wrong download.

what obvious? you don't decide what i think. i would. please don't bother yourself. i think that i got a right rom update, and no corruption.
however, i agree that there is NOT enough info. please take a look at a screen shot. it has not received new autoupdate recently even when it is not rooted, so may try to get it manually.
what ota or any rom update anybody recommend? and address to get it.
thanks,

The reason is that you are not running stock Android. Your carrier has a custom version on there, so you will have to wait until they release an update for your phone (or you can use the PASSIMG method to possible get you back to stock Android).
Since you are not running stock Android (verified by seeing your build number... official builds from Google use a 5 character Build Version like GKW74), you cannot use the official updates files from google. They will show that the signatures do not match, because it isn't able to update a non-Google release.

thanks to bassmadrigal,
that is what i was guessing. so now i have a choice.

NEED HELP!!! Updating my firmware to 2.2 or 2.3 with weird build number

I just got a Google nexus one second hand with firmware version: 2.1-update 1 and build number assion-userdebug 2.1-update1 EPE55 26105 test-keys.
I've tried to update the firmware to 2.2 or 2.3 manually but none of the packages I've found worked. Installation aborts. I don't know if it's because of this weird build number...PLEASE I NEED HELP...I've googled and tried everything!! And nothing works.

Okay, i refer to the other thread you gave me but i'm not sure if it will solve my problem. The question in the other thread is a bit different from mine...I do get the triangle in the exclamation mark..it's just that the packages i've tried does not want to install. I get two errors
E:Failed to verify the whole file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.

did you follow all i said ?
normally it should work
Sent from my Nexus One using xda premium

No I have'nt tried it as yet...can you explain what passing.zip will do? And will the rom work regardless of my build number? I just want to know if it is safe...I don't to cause any damage to the phone. By the way..thanks for your responses.

Hey i downloaded the rom, i followed your instructions but nothing happened.
Then i tried to opened the zipped folder and could not. It says that the folder is either invalid or corrupted.
So i'm not sure if that's the reason why nothing happens when i load in the phone.

Try to download it again, or try this one (don't mind the RUU_Passion_Vodafone_Generic_3.11.151.3_GRJ22_release.exe).

I downloaded it twice already, and it said the same thing. The file is either invalid or corrupted. Thanks for your quick reply...I just really need this 2.1-update1 firmware to update. lol

Is the download you gave me, a .rar file? I've downloaded it..what to do next?

Yes, it's a rar. Extract the PASSIMG_Passion_Google_WWE_3.10.1700.1_GRJ22_release_signed.zip, rename it PASSIMG.zip (make sure it's not PASSIMG.zip.zip - hidden extension) and copy it to the root of your µSD card.
Power off your Nexus One and then press power button + volume down. You will enter in bootloader and all you have to do is wait.

Okay, i went through all your instruction..but nothing happened when i went to the boatloader. I saw the sd checking, and at PASSIMG.zip, it says no Image!. I'm wondering if it's because my hboot is the older version. My version of Hboot is 0.33.2012 (PB9910000)

Yes it's in my main Sd card. But it still doesn't pick up. I don't know why.. I don't know why my N1 refuses to update.

[Q] Captivate Root Update

So after hours of searching i found out I can just flash an update from the recovery to root it.
All of the updates that I've tried have given me the error
"E: signature verification failed"
Can anyone give me any ideas or upload the correct file for me?
p.s. I can't super one click or anything cause the usb port doesn't work on my phone :/

Look at TRusselo's signature. He has a work around that doesn't require usb if you have some experience with root explorer.

[Q] P880 4.0.3 to 4.4 How? Newbie here

Hi,
I'm a complete newbie to this stuff.. I bought my LG Optimus 4x HD P880 here in the Philippines about a year ago. I still got the stock 4.0.3 ICS.
Now I heard great things about KitKat.. I wanted to try it. When I tried to search, I came across these terms that I did not understand completely..
"CWM11 ? or CM11?"
"Flashing"
"ROM"
Basically, I wanted to try this one:
CyanFox ROM
I'm not very sure though, but if anyone could link me or teach me how to get started.. really appreciate that.
thank you so much advance,
Kuodo

Can you open the zip file on your computer? Sounds like a bad download or maybe wrong CWM version.

Yeah.. I wasn't able to. I downloaded again and I am now able to use CyanFox..
Also, I heard about iodak Kernel v9.5. I'm wondering if I needed to install that too? Iodak Kernel v9.5.
