Hey there =)
I'm a proud owner of a Optimus 2x. I've rooted my phone and flashed the "stock rom" ( From this topic) and downloaded 2 Custom ROMs ( Thisone and another one from a dutch forum).
However, when I go to CWM and do a Backup and complete wipe, when I wan't to flash the rom (as said how to do it in the topics) I get things like this:
"Finding udate package. . .
Opening update package. . .
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip (bad)
Toggle signature verification: on/off
Toggle script asserts: on/off
I tried all possible options.
When I got the signature verification ON, then CWM says the signature is not verified
I worked with both V10A and V10B, both don’t work
What do I do wrong?

Try to select zip file from SD Card. If you have renamed the ROM to update.zip this should work fine, if that's the case the update.zip is corrupted.
I’ve already tried that to, doesn’t work. I suppose that a ‘’physical’’ MicroSD means one you can touch, so a real one (I got one and placed the ROMs on the MicroSD). I also tried making the .zip files a ‘’Read Only’’. I just keep getting the same screen that it doesn’t work.
And is there also a difference between a NANDROID backup and the backup I do in CWM?

Yes, you need a physical SD card. See if it gets mounted in CWM. Nandroid backup is the backup you do from the backup/restore menu in CWM.
If you keep getting the same screen you have not selected the zip file that contains the ROM. Your CWM is looking for update.zip that should reside on the root of your physical SD card. If you select choose zip you can navigate to the rom zip file you downloaded.
How can I check if it gets mounted in CWM? I can find the update.zip (I renamed the zip file myself to update.zip) When I check in Astro I go to "sdcard/_ExternalSD" and there is on the root of the external SD the update.zip package..
However, I've done a backup back to the standard rom and now I see the LGE-Version is back to LGP990-V10a. Here are all my specs:
Basebandversion: 1035.21_20110223
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Buildnumber: FRG83G
LGE: LGP990-V10a .
Can you maybe explain to me step by step how I can do a custom rom again? I think I have to start from scratch again?

First off, if you install MCR Fr12 then go and update your baseband to the newest one. Follow these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008070
Download the MCR Fr12 again to ensure that it's not corrupted, check the MD5 of the zipfile and compare it with the one stated in the first post.
Put the zipfile on the external SD card, no need to rename it.
Reboot into CWM, and (not having my phone here, so maybe I don't remember the exact phrases) advanced menu/toggle signature check off and wipe all data (cache/user/dalvik)
install zip from SD card (not apply update.zip) and navigate to the downloaded rom and press power to select it. This should install MCR Fr12 without problems.
Hope it helps.
Edit: Are you able to browse the SD from CWM ? If not try formatting the SD card in your PC as FAT(32).
I haven't done it this way before, so I'm gonna check it out
And I think I'm able to browse the SD from CWM, because when I do ''Install zip from SD card" i can navigate trough the maps I created and the update file is on the root. I will try this asap ! I hope this works thx
edit: How can I check the MD5 of the zipfile?
The: E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip (bad)
can refer to a corrupted update.zip so try and download it again

Well it might refer to a corrupted download
What is the size of the file after you downloaded it?
Also regarding checking MD5 i use a program called HashTab.
It's a a small program that adds a tab when you check a files properties.
EDIT: also that error can also just be it looks for a file called update.zip but can't find it.
In windows you might see the file as update.zip but in reality it's called update.zip.zip and that also courses that error.
If you haven't renamed it, then choose install zip from SD card instead of install update.zip in CWM and then select the file
And still it doesn't work. I've checked the MDA on the file where I downloaded it to, then it's correct. However, as soon as I copy/paste or cut/paste the file to my MicroSD root, the MDA doesn't match anymore. Can that be the reason?
I might have the solution. When I do a full wipe via CWM, the base version goes back to V10a, maybe that is the solution. I will download the file directly to the MicroSD right now. I let you guys know if its working
Edit: omfg, I found out, I think it's working right now. I formatted and mounted the MicroSD via CWM, copied the file to the MicroSD and the MD5 was now still the same. Right at this moment my phone is writing it to the system. So it was probably the MicroSD not correctly formatted or such... Thx for all the help guys

I take it you're using the "flash back to RC29" method to root, correct?
Make sure your file is named properly, it should be DREAIMG.NBH, not DREAMIMG.NBH. I've seen that goof a few times (almost made it myself).
Also, try re-downloading the file. The one you downloaded may be corrupt.

Hey all, I'm currently in RA after flashing the recovery image , and I'm trying to install the FRESH rom on there but for some reason when I try to "Flash zip from sdcard" it's telling me "No zip files found." Why is that? I have the whole zip folder placed in the main SD card, so why is it telling me it's not found?

I responded to you on http://GeekFor.Me, but the reason is because RA looks in the root of sdcard, the zips can't be inside of any folders.
So does that mean I have to take out all the individual files and place them directly into the root of the sdcard? Because I just basically copied the download folder and dropped it into the root. Thanks for the reply

You need to leave the files in a .zip, but yea that zip needs to be on the root of the sdcard.
The only file you need to install the rom is fresh-cdma-hero-20d.zip (for fresh rom 2.0d). Any other zips are just addons or tweaks or whatever they may be.

Hmm, I'm on a Mac and maybe it's me but the link I download from gives me an actual folder rather than a zip. And when I rename the folder to a zip, it gives an error. Is there a mirror link to download an actual zip folder?
Boogie when you download it dont opening after it finishes downloading .. just use the finder to navigate to where its at and then copy that to your sd .. when you open it on a mac it will automatically create the extracted folder .. hope this helps ...
Sounds like your using Safari to download it. To make this easier in the future go to Safari > Preferences > General and make sure that "Open safe files after downloading" is NOT check-marked.
Safari is unpacking the zip file for you. The file you want is in your trash bin, drag it to the root of your SD card and that's it..
Ok I'm gonna give it another go. Since I made it all the way through to the RA stage, there's no reason I shouldn't be able to flash the rom is there?
Thanks for all the help everyone I finally got it to flash the FRESH rom, but once I rebooted it, it's still in the "HTC" branded screen. Is it loading? It's not going anywhere but this screen, although I know it's doing something because the animation shine is moving.

After flashing a new ROM, it can take up to 10 minutes or so to load.
Nice Everything is all good! Now my last question is how do I get the removed apps from the ROM back onto here? I actually prefer to have some of those programs back onto the phone.

There is a link in the release notes to download all the removed apk's from Fresh Rom. You will then need to use adb push to push them back to /system/app. Search for how to setup adb on a mac as I honestly don't know.

Darkyy's 5.2 captivate ROM on Windows 7. Not sure what you mean by which storage, but every file is affected. I've been searching for a while with no results :-/
I need to upgrade badly. I'm having problems with getting calls now, too. Some files can be copied onto my computer fine, but many of them give me "Error 0x80070057: The parameter is incorrect."

that's my zip package. it has
odin 1 click stock
Clockwork Mod Update Zip
xcals kernel
the new modem jl3
and nexus s live wallpaper.
zippox180 said:
i decided to make a zip that includes the odin 1 click to stock, a cwm update zip that can be put on the sd card and installed by booting into recovery and selecting reinstall packages, the jl3 modem, xcals 2.2.1 kernel and the nexus s live wallpaper which can be installed by placing the LiveWallpaper.apk into system/app.
This is not one big whole flashable zip. it is a zip that includes what seems like the most common items i could think of in one folder so you dont have to search. i hope this is helpful for some.
Odin 1 click-open the odin file first, then put your phone in download mode and start the one click
CWM update.zip-copy to internal sd card, 3 button combo into recovery,reinstall packages(might take a few times)
jl3 modem- flash with CWM, boot cwm recovery, select install zip from sd card,choose zip and select the jl3update
xcals 2.2.1 kernel- flash with CWM, boot cwm recovery, select install zip from sd card,choose zip and select the kernel zip
LiveWallpaper Nexus s- move copy livewallpaper.apk to internal sd and move to system/app via root explorer or something of that sort
Again hope this helps somebody

Awesome, thanks! I'll start getting my phone fixed when I get home from work. I don't think there's anything else I can do to get my files copied over, but I can probably just back them up on my phone somehow.
im trying to flash paragon rc5. i follow the instructions, but when i go to choose sd card... and click on paragon.zip as file to use in clockwordmod recovery manager, it loads okay, then says replacing recovery manager and reboots. what did i do wrong?
To flash rom you should boot into recovery, select ingersoll zip from sd, choose zip, select parogon, confirm, done
Well when i do, it acts like its going to install, but then says "replacing recovery manager with clockwork..." then exits and reboots into the normal recovery screen.
Each time i get into recovery it is the normal one. I have to go to reinstall packages to get to the clockworkmod one. Something tells me thats not right.
Could this have happened because i installed rom manager and it didnt say i needed it?
Sounds like you are flashing an update.zip to get clock work recovery. i think you need to confirm you downloaded the correct file
What happened was i installed rom manager, got recovery manager through it, then downloaded paragon and its update.zip file. So am i basically flashing the recovery manager right now?
Sounds like it, are you on stock?
Paragon rom zip should be like 170mb in size
Rooted, but otherwise stock. Have already wiped all my data on it in preparation.
What im trying to do is this- have update.zip and paragon.zip in main internal sd folder. Go into recovery---reinstall---then it loads clockwork, then go to from sd---choose--- and if i pick paragon.zip it still does it.
let me clarify this, basically you do not need rom manager here.
1. download the update.zip and put it in your sdcard root folder;
2. download the rom file (170mb one) and put it in your sdcard; not necessary to be the root folder;
3. suppose you are on the stock rom; shut down your phone and use key combo to get into recovery mode;
4. apply the changes (i remember it is the second option), you may need to do it twice. you should now be in the cwm;
5. use the menu in the cwm to browse and install the rom file
6. reboot your phone. done.
Boot phone up normally. Delete paragon file you have. Redownload. Like I said the file should be like 170mb.
Update.zip goes in the root folder? Where is that? I couldnt find it anywhere....
The file is about 170mb. I know thats correct, im thinking since i had already installed cwm i moght have screwed up.
when you select reinstall packages you should go into green recovery/clockwork recovery.
If that works boot phone, open rom manager, select install rom from sd, select paragon
check the attached file.
Thats the update.zip i have. Now where do i put the damn thing?
Your internal sd card. Dl to phone, go to my files app, open dl folder find file select copy, click paste. Should now be where you need it

Got it all up and running. Works infinitely many times better than it did stock. Got a gps lock in about 5 seconds. Im loving this phone again.
Hey All, have google and googled for the past week but nothing specific to this issue I'm having.
I want to restore my stock firmware so I can get OTA updates! I didn't make any sort of backup when I began playing with different roms. I have htc_039 unbranded aus htc one. Bootloader has been unlocked with S-on and TWRP installed.
Downloaded Deevans/bugsys nandroid backup that matched my phone details (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41368105&postcount=375&nocache=1&z=2030115523399023) but there isn't any sort of instructions on installing these.
When i have tried to flash the rom I get "installation aborted" and when playing with fastboot it has given me messages that it cannot find certain .txt files (something like android.txt and a few other ones.
Could someone please tell me what im doing wrong or list the instructions to install this? I don't know if I have to lock the phone again, restore the recovery file first, no idea!!! Or is there anyway to turn the Android Revolution 12 image to get OTA (i dont think so)?
If you need any further phone info I will post.
Can anyone help with this?
When I try to flash the file in TWRP it starts and stops at "Updating partition Details".
What have i not setup right? Have been using these resources:

Hi,
I'm new to the htc one so not sure here but from what I understand and anyone please correct me if wrong - but if it's Deevans nandroid 1.29.980.2 (Australia unbranded) it's a CWM backup and I don't think they work in TWRP.
So think you would have to flash CWM, then flash "restore" nandroid from CWM or find a TWRP nandroid.
Also think you need s-off before you do ota as no way to gain s-off with revone on updated hboot 1.54 yet.
Hope this helps.

I have tried to install this with CWM which gave me those first missing ".txt" files. I will give it another go with CMW and post the results.
I will also S-OFF before doing the above.
Phone is now S-off and put CWM as the loader. Tried the zip file again and says:
Finding update package
Opening update package
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
I have also downloaded the file twice to confirm its not corrupted and it opens through winrar with no problems.
Any other suggestions?

I would try restore it like a backup, so unzip and put files in your CWM backup folder.
Not sure how CWM backup folder looks but in TWRP it's like /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/... or /data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/...
So I would try unzipping and copy files (boot, data, recovery, system) to /sdcard/CWM/BACKUPS/folder/put files in here - then boot to recovery and try "restore" option and browse to backup folder. You could probably copy the files to any folder on the sdcard and restore from recovery not sure.

Thanks for your suggestion and that was going to be my next question. The file I mentioned in the first post is x.xxx.xxx.zip (x as the numbers) and inside that zip is a folder with the same name x.xxx.xxx and inside that folder are all the files.
I tried putting the folder only in CMW but wont detect it, tried it with the .zip file and fails. Have now just put all the files into the folder and tried again with same failure.
There is a very long error in the recovery.txt file it made, don't know if its any use but the first line that pops out is:
Starting TWRP 2.6.0.1 on Fri Aug 2 06:23:49 2013
BOARD_HAS_NO_REAL_SDCARD
I put the file into this link if you know of anything, makes little sense to me. http://pastebin.com/Tvp2Qp2X

I have now tried both TWRP and CWM and fails, also have installed ROM manager and another one I cant recall from play store. Also booted into recovery and went to the 'restore' option from the menu but cant find any directories..
I dont know if this has anything to do with it but noticed in the contents of the file:
ARCHIVE: cache.ext4.tar
ARCHIVE: data.ext4.tar
ARCHIVE: system.ext4.tar
boot.img
cache.ext4.tar.a
data.ext4.tar.a
nandroid.md5
recovery.img
recovery.log
system.ext4.tar.a
system..ext4.tar.b
Not to get ahead of myself but HTC ONE is ext2or 3 by default, its not something simple as having to change it to ext4? Its just something that stood out.
Just done google search on CWM backup location and seems to be /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup - so you could try copy the zip and/or files there and try restore from CWM recovery and see if that works.

Interesting that there was no 'backup' folder inside that folder. Have created it and putting the files and zip in there now.
Was also googl'n and found this article:
http://miuiandroid.com/community/th...d-restore-error-while-restoring-sd-ext.15611/
Someone mentioned to now open the zip file when it downloads. I'll try your suggestions and this and let you know what happens tomorrow.
Thanks again
Morning,
Have downloaded the .zip file again twice and put it onto the SD and clockwork Mod backup folder and it has aborted again.
Any ideas on what to try from here?
