Error flashing a Kernel - HTC Incredible S

I am trying to flash the RCMIX 2.2 kernel on my IncS, but I always get the following errors:
Code:
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/newboot.img", "boot")
E:Error in /sdcard/RCMIX_VIVO_2.2_OC_1.6_TUN_CIFS_2WCR_EXT4.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
can anyone help? Do I need to convert my partitions to EXT4?
EDIT: I figured out the original boot.img had to be rooted prior to flashing the kernel... But now my phone becomes unresponsive... Would I need to deodex the operating system so it can successfully rewrite the apks?

Sorry if this sounds sstupid but do u have s-off?

Hi! You need to flash 4EXT Recovery before flashing this kernel! I ran into this situation and this method worked for me, I hope it works for you too. )

Flash the latest EXT4 Recovery from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1104765
After it should work!

Really? OMG I'll try that tomorrow! (Went back to Cyanogenmod since you can't overclock the stock kernel very well, so I have to re-root the Bell Mobile RUU) I will give you thanks if it works.

Nexus 7 3G error while flashing Android 4.2.2

Hi guys,
I have a Nexus 7 3G tablet which was running android 4.2.1. I had flashed a custom apk to enable tethering .
Now, to enable flashing, I copied the original framework-res.apk file and replaced the modified one. Then edited the prop file to eliminate the getprop error . This enabled me to start flashing. Flashing happens all the way to the booloader then fails while flashing radio. it gives the following error
Code:
writing radio...
assert failed: batch.update_modem("/radio/SAM_6260_ALL.fls")
Error in JOP40D.zip
(Status 7)
Aborted
any suggestions would be great.

Flash stock recovery. Update via sideloading. Profit!
Just in case you are interested in the cause: Current custom recoveries for tilapia are missing the "bach.modem_update" function (not really sure if all of them).

No, you won't. I said stock RECOVERY, not stock IMAGE.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery stockrecoverysname.img
OK. So could you give me a link to download the recovery image ?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Do you have the original factory image from google? The recovery.img is inside,
if not i will upload it somewhere, though it doesn't fixed the radio update error for me.
I now have a mixed version > the ota update installed without errors, the bootloader is 4.18 but
in settings it complains to still be at 4.2.1 JOP40D
Flashing the stock recovery only leads to an unusable recovery screen with no options for flash/sideload
with an red exclamation mark over the chest of the sweet robot..
any ideas?
maybe i have to reflash my nandroid and try again, the custom recovery was openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-tilapia
here are the images for those who need them
nakasig-jop40d-factory-efcec044.tgz
http://www.share-online.biz/dl/0OWHBFIMLC
recovery.img
http://www.share-online.biz/dl/LM9JBFIMKSG8
EDIT:
Ok finally i was able to use the stock recovery. though it seemed to be dead.
By pressing power+volup showed the recovery menu for me.
Then flashing the update via sideload worked.
cheers phk

Boot loop after flashing recovery

Hi there
I tried to get a recovery on my phone with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030777 app.
I pressed the first option ( so Install recovery), then it said something like "flashing succesfull" , so I tried to boot into recovery.
That didn´t work, though, I only got into the preinstalled android recovery, not TWRP.
So I tried to reboot my phone, but ended up in a boot loop...
Any ideas how to solve that?
Thanks in advance,
Metlca

Don't use TWRP. CWM is 100x better and actually works - plus you will find it far easier to get support on here.

FFS - Learn to SEARCH before asking questions that have been covered 50+ times already.
Flash the newest cwm recovery and search next time it's a known problem and is well discussed.

[Solved] System update signature verification failed

Hello
I received a notice to install the new KitKat on my rooted HTC one with TWRP 2.7.0.0
"OTA_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_HTC_Europe_4.19.401.11-3.62.401.1_release_356395e7z2lsr0msqontmw.zip" 3XX,XX MB
When I tried to install the update from the recovery it tells me that no MD5 file was found
then
E:Signature Verification failed :1
and update is aborted ...
How can I solve this problem ?
Should I save a backup before starting solving ?
Will I lose my files ?
And thanks by the way

There are many threads to do with this subject already.
You need stock recovery to install OTA. Find the one that is for your existing OS and flash it. Redownload the ota and it should install. If you have made any mods to your existing rom, that can also prevent the ota from installing properly.
Any yes I would make a nandroid first!
Ah that's all I needed !
this word key : Stock Recovery !
Thanks a lot my problem is solved and I'm eating the Kitkat now thanks
I had to "FIX Fastboot for win 8.1 x64"
Then "S-OFF my phone with hboot 1.55"
Then Flash the recovery with "Stock Recovery signed"
Last but not least,My kitkat is awesome !
Solved
