Hi all
I haven't racked up 10 posts thus i can't post in there so I'm forced to ask here =(
I just downloaded the latest virtuous quattro rom however after having downloaded it two times already, when I try to unzip the file on my computer, it tells me that the file is corrupt and i'm unable to unzip the file. The reason I need to unzip it is because I need to manually flash the boot.img as I haven't rooted my phone.
Does anyone have any solutions for me? Is it just me?
Thanks guys
Maybe I should mention that I've flashed the beta versions of that rom without any problem. I've always done it through manually flashing the boot.img through fastboot
No problems with extracting. Your zip file is probably corrupted.

Check md5 checksum, might be a bad download

Might be the software that you're using to unzip...

I'm not sure how I should go about doing that. Can you show me how to do that?
The software I'm using to unzip should be fine, I used that to unzip the other beta versions and they worked fine.

I did think so but I've downloaded it a few times now and it's done the same thing. I also downloaded another rom and the same thing has happened. So I'm not too sure now what the problem is...

If it helps, when I tried to flash the rom through clockworkmod recovery, the installation was aborted. I suspect the zip file is corrupted?
Obviously the zip was corrupted and it seems like you're downloading from a cache, try to clear your browser cache and redownload from a different mirror, or using a different browser.

I can't install latest release of gapps.
Clockworkmod (4.0.0.9) says there are problems in the zip file and the installation aborts.
I've already checked md5sum and signatures inside the zip file, they're fine.
Any suggestions ?
thanks

I tried... no luck.
I've installed 20110613 (which was already installed) without any problem.
Same error, I've found this (I can't paste url...) pastebin.com/b4vyNiNm (someone seems to have the same problem)
looks like broken package, same here. maybe someone with other version of cwm can give it a try?
Tried with newest cwm 5,worked like a charm

Tried with cwm 5.0.1.4 but no luck, same error as before :/
I have installed cwm on my friends phone (galaxy mini) via odin. When i booted into recovery it said he couldn't mount /cache/recovery. So i installed root explorer on his phone and i saw there are no files in that folder! In my phone there is a file... so i was wondering if someone has installed cwm (i believe it was 5.2.7) and knows how to solve this. Maybe i could try using this file of someone else with same recovery.
Long story short: does anybody know a solution or does anybody wants to upload this file?
Sorry for bad english if i made any mistakes

simple way is to download file and usb to phone, the zip file. Do Not unzip it.

stock?
Dont use CWM on stock if u dont want to flash rom
It will give problem
Well... first i had tried installed cwm using a normal .zip file. Same problem. Then was when i actually installed via odin. After that i gave up and asked for help here. So i think it isnt the fould of the recovery. So could anyone upload the file in the next location, just to try : /cache/recovery
So i can put the file inside this folder and maybe it will work again.

Dont use custom recovery on stock, if you want install custom rom, just wipe data/cache and it will mount system, data
So i shouldn't use cwm to install rom? Indeed, installing a new rom is the goal

never flashed single file via odin before. i think i just need to deselect one package. but what kind of thing is it.. boot, phone, pda, csc or efs?
or do i need to select one package and just chose a .ops file i use on an other recovery?

don't worry error in mounting cache is normal, you can use it safely for installing and wiping
However also in the my stock recovery give a error in the cache partition but to me give the error of unmounting, says unmount(/cache); attempt 1 unknow error=0 rc=0, and later i must and will inform about this error.

I have tried it with 3 different zip files and the result is the same, you can substitute ***** for any file name.
Also the file is not corrupted as it is the same result with any zip file I download from this forum.
Thank you all for your prompt reply.

Change the recovery, as far as i know 5.8 is the touch-version of CWM, use the one provided by unlimited.io, you can find it in the tool provided in my signature
Hope this helps.

Also, if you send files via ADB or via Mounting USB, if it gives you errors like this, restart recovery. Well, this kind of errors give you if you change a file with the same name.

Thanks for your reply. I download your multi tool and used option 3 to install ICS Recovery (unlimited.io)
Same error when I tried to install from zip file on sdcard.
Could it be because I used protected HBOOT from unlimited.io when doing S-Off in my phone? At the moment I have HBOOT 6.28.6666.
Do I need to install different hboot?
Am I the only one with this error?
Has anyone else got HBOOT 6.28.6666 with working recovery?
As I have used unlimited.io ics protected hboot, do i need to do anything after this to get S-OFF with working recovery.
I have already tried CWM Recovery (5.8.3.1) and unlimited.io ICS recovery.

the zip file should be unzip, or not?
I made a backup of my ROM and flashed a new ROM, however, I want to go back.
When I attempt to hit "restore" in Nandroid backup, it says "Couldn't open directory" "No files found."
I'm running ClockworkMod Recovery V6.0.1.0. I also are unable to flash any ROM, or access my files (they won't mount.) I think I may be screwed,
My SD card also has a weird glitch, something about a folder named "1". In that folder I can find my backups under the clockworkmod folder.
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Thank you
Sounds like you flashed a 4.2 ROM and then it created the multiple profiles folder. I think other people have had this problem, try searching for the /0 folder problem on google and xda and see if they can help you better than I.

If you can boot into a ROM, then download goomanager app and give it root permissions. Then open the menu and select install openscriptrecovery and it will install the latest TWRP. However, if you prefer the latest CWM, then you'll have to download it from the CWM thread and then flash it through fastboot.

Maybe your backup is corrupt. Do a full wipe of all partitions except sd card. Then, restore the backup and fastboot flash the boot.img don't install superuser.

i restored the same backup about 4 days before this problem and it was fine
do you think its the superuser.zip that caused me all this mess
Im pretty sure flashing superuser is a one time thing.....
At this point i would suggest wiping the phone clean (data, cache, dalvik cache) and reinstalling the ROM

Find the correct rom from the link in the first post and flash that. That's the stock HTC ruu.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda app-developers app
thanks man but i googled the ruu for my vivo and found this
RUU_VIVO_ICS_35_S_HTC_ARA_4.14.415.1_Radio_20.74.30.0833U_3831.18.00.11_M_release_270844_signed
because my buildnumber is 4.14.415.1
i downloaded it but when i try extracting the rom.zip it says " an unexpected end of archive "
i googled that and it sayed the .zip might be corrupt so i was thinking
can i download this one"RUU_VIVO_ICS_35_S_HTC_WWE_4.10.405.1_Radio_20.74.30.0833U_3831.18.00.11_M_release_266013_signed.exe"
and then take the recovery.img and boot.img for it and flash the first ruu i told u about?
I guess there's no harm in trying that. That part of the ROM would be independent of region. I'm sorry I'm not 100% sure about it. You may go ahead or wait for a better response.
But isn't the first one you downloaded a .Exe file? Why are you unzipping it? You can install it through the computer.

This is true. The RUU should be in .exe form not a .zip file. If its .zip file i am guessing you got it from htcdev??? Well either way, your phone is upgraded or "upgraded" by an RUU through a computer connection. You cannot run a .zip file as a .exe file soo....
Here is a very nice list of Vivo shipped ROMs. Just create an account, should not be that hard. Or you can just google "HTC Incredible S shipped RUU"
Edit: you do not flash RUUs....
