Exactly what it says... It's a bad download check your connection and check the MD5's

Ive donwload many roms from many websites and they all sayh that so theres no way the donwload is bad because plenty of other people run it just fine also when i go to fast boot it says missing some file beginning with PH3xxx or something like that could this be why? ive restored my phone many times and re installed stock RUU and it always says this

Understandable, but all servers and home internets can corrupt the download, like i said check the MD5 Checksum and see if they match
And no, the PH3.img file is to Update your hboot which you do not need to do unless you are not on ICS

It's a checksum to verify is you have a good download or not, most devs have them on the post or when you are downloading, then google MD5 Checker and check the MD5's and see if they verify if they do, you have a good download if not well redownload until you do because it will be Bad/corrupt

No, like I said verify the Checksum
MD5: Checker http://download.cnet.com/MD5-Checker/3000-2092_4-10410639.html
Then check With the OP or the site where you download the rom for a MD5
What are you exacting?? You shouldn't be exacting nothing except the "boot.img" aka the Kernel Or if a WCX Rom Wildchild's recovery...Everything else stays as an .ZIP

[GUIDE] Easiest way to unroot HTC Legend

Hi..
I decided to make an "EASY TO USE" unroot guide for the HTC Legend..
Here goes..
First..
If you want to unroot to software version 1.31
... download this file and put it in the root of your SD-card..
- This version can easily be rooted again..
If you want to unroot to software version 2.03
... download this file and put it in the root of your SD-card..
- This version will need a downgrade in order to root phone again..
When the wanted file is on your SD-card turn OFF your phone..
EDIT: *** NB: Reported in that this might not work if SD-card is partitioned with ext-partition. If not working try to use a fat32-only ***
Turn the phone ON while holding VOLUME DOWN..
The phone will detect the LEGEIMG.zip file on the SD-card and
ask you to upgrade..
Select YES.. And wait...
This should do the trick....
Nice and simple. Good work m8.
Good guide. Straight to the point. Keep up the good work.
Is there any way to. Convert the rom. Zip with the ruu to legeimg. Zip
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
Yep... extract ROM.zip from RUU and rename it to LEGEIMG.zip.
Hello,
I'm not familiar yet with rooting.
When this procedure is done, will I have a working Legend device ?
Which rom will it be running ?
How could I "upload" CyanogenMod to this rooted legend ?
I've search the web, but I do not get everything yet...
Thank you for your hep !
Yannick
Thanks for the guide, but it doesn't work for me.
"No image or wrong name!" message appears.
I've tried your first link and my own rom.zip renamed to LEGEIMG.zip .

The point is if you have to return it under warranty.
Can someone help me with this? I keep getting an error. I can't flash the LEGEIMG.zip by reboot & vol dn+power nor by clockwork. Tried downloading the file twice, tried my extracted rom.zip and it just doesn't work.
What else can I do?
Can you post md5 of this zip?
What I did was put the file in the root of the SD Card...
Switch off the Legend and switch it on while having the Volume down button pressed. It flashes automatically.

What error? Does this error have a name? Does it have a description? Or does it just say:
ERROR
...over the entire screen?
Dammit guys, learn to post some useful information!!! If it ain't working, there's definitely a reason don't you think???
Nice work mate, i gott bored, so i tested your guide, worked like a charm

Sorry, I wrote about it on the previous page. This message was kind of stupid bump.
Love you too.
It says 'error' tho, before error messages, so you're right. In green tho.
Something like 'Wrong image!', 'Can't find image'. All about LEGEIMG.zip . It dissapears fast.

One of two problems..
1) You did not put the download in the ROOT of your sd- card or
2) you have renamed the file..
One of these things are causing the error..
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
I'm 100% sure I haven't renamed the file and it's in the root (astro file manager shows it in /mnt/sdcard). If ROOT means sdcard top folder then there it is.
edit: clockwork says "Can't open /sdcard/LEGEIMG.zip (bad)". Hence the request for md5 - but I doubt triple download would cause some inconsistency in file.
I got CID incorect error, what does it mean?

The easiest way to update to honeycomb is to go to the xda wiki, head to the Dell Streak 7 section, find the appropriate update package, download it, rename it to "update.pkg" and place it on your sd card.
Then reboot your tablet, pressing Volume Up and Power, and selection option 2 which is to install a package and let it do its work.
Ok I downloaded the latest version renamed it update.pkg when I rebooted and tried to click on update from update.pkg it brings me to recovery in says install from zip.or upate.wipe cache.etc.

The Update.pkg can only be ran from the stock recovery menu, sounds like your on CWM.

Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_7#Official as there seems to be a recovery download link for 2.2(336). That should give you a stock recovery from which you can install that "Update.pkg".

If you haven't used Fastboot before you need to search, read and install drivers then.

Got to poke around in that zip for the proper drivers. You may have to NVflash back to 2.2 now to fix whatever happened. Look here for three videos from giveen on how to NVflash: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydM7qkoCs00. Look here for files you'll need: http://d-h.st/users/TheManii. Your looking for a "Restore to 2.2.rar" file. Root with SuperUser7 later when you need too.

Check the md5 of your zip and make sure you have a good download - if you haven't already.

Even if "legit" you can get a bad download. I won't flash without checking md5. Bad downloads happen.

HTC Desire 510 Bootloop

Hi,
i'm trying since 2 days to fix my phone, because i accidently deleted the backup from the SD Card, after falsly assuming it was the old one. What i got is a bootloop after trying to install DragonROM_Minimalist-1.2.9 via PhilzTouch recovery mode. I did the Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe delvik cache and clean for new rom before installing the zip. I have a rooted Kernel and Bootloader unlocked. I simply restarted the Phone after installing that ROM and it is stuck in bootloop.
I'm running a x64 HTC Desire 510 bought from Tesco and i have Windows 10 (also got Ubuntu installed on another partition, if that somehow helps)
I tried those RUU Files, but the Programm just keeps closing and nothing happens. (I have all vcredist packages installed)
I tried to download the kernel zip from the htc download site and apply it via fastboot flash zip, but that was a big fail to.
I tried unpacking the ROM from the RUU Programm and installing that via Flash zip, which gave me "FAILED (remote: 24 parsing android-info fail)"
I tried to place (several different) 0PCVIMG.zip on the SD Card and rebooting to HBOOT, which gave an error that was to large for the screen
I found a total of about 4 Errors durings fastboot flash zip, such as remote 99, remote 42, etc...
I really don't know what to do now.. Anyone help?
It doesn't necessarily has to be to stock version, it would be perfect, if that ROM would work..

Stuck in TWRP Bootloop N920P With No Rom

Ok so, I kinda effed up. Originally my Play Store among other google services had been acting up and were unusable so I was troubleshooting for a fix. I tried everything except a factory reset, so of course I do that , but as I was reseting I also lost my root. It had been awhile since I rooted my phone so I followed the steps of the video I was watching. (How to Root Galaxy Note 5 on Android 6.0/6.0.1 Marshmallow!) He happens to reformat his phone in the video so I did as well, brainfarting on the fact that I would lose my backups. I start tinkering with stuff because after factory reset in the ROM I still have no access to any of the Google services. I deleted System and was gonna re-flash/use my backups (that I thought I had) to fix everything. Well, I tried downloading the stock firmware for my model but it's not flashable via Odin as it's in ZIP form, and when I attempt unzipping I get an error, tried firmware from multiple mirrors. So I tried running a custom ROM since there is a lot more support on that now. I tried the Nemesis_V3_N7-port first, it flashed succesfully, tried booting for a solid 30 minutes or so before I shut it down and tried a different rom. I think it was then or after I flashed the latest MOAR that I started bootlooping into TWRP.
Please help!! I can normally figure this stuff out once I break it, but I've been fixing this phone for the past 12 hours and have yet to find a solution.
So you wiped your phone and have no rom? so you can either bootloop, go into twrp or go into dl mode? Right?

you need to download the .tar file for your n920p. Then in odin click on ap and then click the .tar file. run and you should go back to stock. Then you can root again! Here yah go: https://devs-lab.com/how-to-unbrick-samsung-galaxy-note-5.html

C:\Users\Delerios\Downloads\N920PVPU2BPC3_N920PSPT2BPC3_SPR.zip: Checksum error in C:\Users\Delerios\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$DIa0.337\N920PVPU2BPC3_N920PSPT2BPC3_N920PVPU2BPC3_HOME.tar.md5. The file is corrupt
C:\Users\Delerios\Downloads\N920PVPU2BPC3_N920PSPT2BPC3_SPR.zip: The archive is corrupt
So I think I'm gonna try and find yet another page to download from. Did you download the version for N920P, or for the N920T you have?

That would be insane man, TY!! I've been hitting every forum I could looking for a download that worked for me. I wonder why I can't access it, I'm using Chrome/Windows 10. I was abouta to go see if it worked on my old laptop but I figured it was a long shot.

All you really need to do is re flash your twrp so it will re root the phone again! After you flash twrp you can easily use adb to push the files back to your phone. This is all I did to a phone I repaired.. You can even use fastboot flash Your920PFirmware.tar..

One thing after another... So I attempted flashing and I got the "Pit for mapping" error. I looked up my Pit file and put it into odin but I'm still getting the problem. Tried wiping the Cache and Dalvik + Factory Reset but nada. Any ideas?

Dang. Hey man appreciate all your help, thank you for the file. I'll post the solution when I figure all this out in case there's another poor soul in the same boat
I FIXED IT. It was my computer, I don't know what it was and I don't care lol. But I tried the correct firmware through Odin on my other Windows PC and it worked flawlessly. If anybody runs into any issues unzipping or flashing through Odin, last resort just clean install on the pc or find another one.
