Try re-downloading the ROM and reflash it again...Sometimes a bad download will prevent it from finishing and also what BL are you on?

Did you wipe Cache Partition as well and what BL are you running?

Unzip the file on your computer and go to /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and open that.
Delete all lines before the first line that says
show_progress("0.15, 1");
Then save and rezip and flash.

Is it that "Error 7"? I remember when I first tried THS Build 15 that zip in their first post for the Error 7 fix helped me out, and after that I could flash every other rom easily because of that little fix, have you tried that?

I had the same problem, I had to flash kk4 and make sure its the one that says repartition, only thing that worked for me

If boot loader is what u mean by "bl" I'm running galaxys-bootloader-jvb.tar.md5
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium

That is the I9000, it is recommended to use I897

But if I use that boot loader will I still have the ics. Rom?

And I tried what u told me and it said installing update, then installation aborted... no error just installation aborted

Do this..RE-Flash the THS ROM B16 and that should put you on ICS 4.0.3 with its partitions already formated. Then go through the procedures of wiping cache and ect.. and then flash DarkKnight.. Try that method and see if you can go that route. If all else fails Odin back to stock and try again. I don't see how you keep getting errors unless there's something not compatible with DarkKnight that its rejecting the install.

I agree. I don't have a problem jumping from this ROM to Dark Knight's. Hmmm? Sounds like a incompatibility issue with a previous install of some kind.

Yup, that should've done it.
Not sure what is going on, all I can suggest a factory reset, or revert to stock and start again...

factory reset as in stock recovery and and stock rom?
That's about all I can suggest. You can back up before, and you can always root again...
Or wait for some other advice, I'm sure there's better ideas floating around, and honestly, I've never heard of this issue before...

Cm7 nightly question

I have cm7 on my phone, recently I've been trying to flash a nightly on my cappy and after the install "about phone" still shows the old mod. ROM manager also shows the old mod as my "current ROM"
I've tried reflashing, and even downloading onto my computer copying it to my card and trying to install through recovery and get stuck in bootloop. Ive deleted old mods from the download folder and Ive also tried different nightlies and have the same problem. Any help is appreciated

..and you've done the basic clearing your caches, data and dalvik? You may want to try a fac reset. That fixes a lot of problems sometimes
.. for the future you should post in the cm7 q&a's. Even if it is a nightly
Yeah, Ive done the wipes and caches. I guess I'll try fac reset. Thank you for the help

I know, my friends think I'm crazy. So I'm thinking I could flash back to stock and then start over? So, to do this I need to flash the stock Rom using Odin with repartitioning, correct? I'm assuming I can't use Odin jf6 one click because it doesn't repartition, or does it?

Yeah.. Odin one click JF6 does the repartition. I've flash back to stock a few times using that method and the last time being just a couple weeks ago. That is about your best bet. Odin back to stock.. get cwm and flash nightly. Its gotta stick then... you'd think

flash any of the kernels based on ICS through recovery and then reboot recovery.. don't reboot the phone, just the recovery and then flash the ICS rom you want..
personally I am using semaphore kernel but there are others available like Glitch, Devil, Midnight etc..
what do you mean by reboot recovery... i just tried to flash the teamice but failed with an error (bad)
flashed a cyanogen nightly and up and running but cant import my contacts from my microsd card
would rather get teamice runing as i hear good things about it

in the CWM recovery there is an option to reboot recovery..
the cyanogen nightly you installed is CM7 or CM9?
was cm9. all fooked again now. tried to recover to stock that i had backed up but stuck on splash screen now and when i go to cwm i get a whole list of unable to locate **** come up.
plan now is go back to library tomorrow and reflash the stock GB rom i have and go prepared with an ics rom
so question is how do i avoid the (bad) error i got with the last time i tried and also had a fail with 2 lines quoting signing errors
cheers everyone
its a ball ache for me having no pc and having to go to local library
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
Have u checked whether signature verification type thing is on, I think you can change that just before you chose the zip from SD card, it should be one of the options, you reboot recovery by going to the advanced option and clicking reboot recovery.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
The unable to locate **** is because ur from is on the wrong boot loader, that's how I understand it, the only way to fix that is to reflash stock gingerbread with boat loaders using odin, I used a android soul guide when I had that problem after doing the same thing as you. I don't know if xda has a guide but the android soul one was simple and easy to use, just Google how to flash gingerbread 2.3.3 GT-I9000 the android soil and u should get the guide, remember u want the one with bootloaders.

Help with flashing ics roms!!!

Well, next thing is going on. I have installed many roms and every time was a succes. Never ever went anything wrong. Now i am trying to install ics roms, cmw gives an error when he is "opening update package". I have tried cm9 build4 and paranoidandroid latest version. I wipe cache, factory set, then i format system and mount system. Then install from sd card and chose update package. What am i doing wrong¡!!

Few times ago, I got the same problem and I think I solved it with an update of ClockWork Recovery Mod
I downloaded rom manager from app store and hit the "flash clockworkmod recovery" . Then there came a list with phone models, but the gt-i9001 wasnt included, so i chose gt-i9000, i hope that wont be a problem. Next i went into recovery mode, there i saw i was using feamod 1.4 based on cmw 5.5.0.4. After little bit of googling i found that this is the latest cmw vesion... So i backuped my current rom (BlazR ultimate). Wiped everything, format system, chose zip from sdcard and tried the kang version of cm9. Also tried the cm9 normal build4 and tge paranoidandroid but all failed. Just for trying i tried to flash the blazR Rom again, wich has firmware 2.3.6, but this went perfect. So how can it be that my cmw only flashes non-ics roms?

Nevermind. Allready solved. The feamod cmw recoverys dont support ics.. soort i flashed team win recovery

Broken LockScreen (JB)

Hi XDA im new there i was looking for this issue everywhere but doesnt seems like its somewhere
when i installed Jelly bean i had fully working device but i pressed lock button and there it started when i want to unlock it i have screen like this
dl.dropbox.com/u/55724162/DSC_0885(.DOT)JPG
I used 3 versions of CM 10 JB
Still same issues and my Recovery is CWM 6.0.0.8
Thx in advance
Cant use link but i think its important to see it so please be nice
What specific tab do you have?
Edit and what rom

and in everyone i got this issue right after first attempt to unlock from sleep mode (via lockscreen)
same AOSP_14-01-2013_Beta-14 P5wifi
Well your picture doesn't look good, can't do much on it can you? Does it only do it on the cm10 roms? I'm not sure what to tell you but I'd try fixing permissions in your recovery.
What recovery are you using and how did you flash it. Factory reset, wipes, etc
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Bassicaly i did all wipes then instaled rom then Gapps and then rebooted
Like i said my recovery is this Clockwork_Recovery_6.0.0.8_GT-P7310_alternate
And if you flash the stock rom it doesn't do it. You might try that to rule out hardware issues
Edit: found someone else who had a similar problem. There is an issue with the boot loader. If you odin the stock rom and then flash the cm rom. That fixed it. You'll of course, have to reinstall your recovery and root.

Just tried one stock rom and it says

// I got that its ok to moment when i push lock/unlock button . When i had it on Charger i saw the battery ok but after i pressed lock it goes scattered/distorded like i show u picture. I really dunno what this is but im going via backup back to my gingerbread *SADNESS*
Where did you get the stock rom? Go to sammobile.com for it. You have to register, but it's free you'll download a zip file. Use 7-zip to extract the .tar.md5 file from it. Use that in Odin, PDA.
