Help!

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.

[ADD-ON] Epic, Nexus, and Moment Ringtones (Flashable Zip)

I started a thread on SDX right after the Epic came out with the manual way to get your beloved ringtones back and then some and promised to make it a flashable zip... naturally I feel the need to share this with both communities, so here you go!
Updated with FroYo Sounds:

I'm now able to post links, YAY!, so I have fixed the first post so that you don't have to copy/paste/edit to get to download!

Thank you much

Ever since I installed this, ring tone selection crashes android system and I have to reboot. Usually happens after 2nd or 3rd selection. Amy ideas why/how to fix? Haven't checked logs yet

Just wanted to stop by and say thanks - Gremlyn1, I've included this collection in SyndicateROM "Fully Loaded".

No idea why at all, unless for some reason the files didn't copy over... have you tried flashing again? The script doesn't do anything except remove the old sound files and add the new ones.

Updated this with new FroYo sounds (some Samsung ui sounds). The .zip is not yet CWM3 compatible, that will come soon. If you have changed the TW_Battery_caution.ogg to TW_Battery_caution.ogg.bak or removed it, etc., then you just need to remove that file. This zip includes a TW_Battery_caution.ogg.bak already, as it got included when I pulled the sounds from my phone.

I took the liberty of updating this package.
Changes:
CWM Script now properly erases all sound files in /system/media/audio prior to copying.
Deleted Ding.ogg and Noisy_One.ogg from Ringtones as they are identical to Noises1.ogg.
Edited title tag of Noises1.ogg from Noisey One to Noisy One.

any chance of converting it from amend --> edify?
for those of you who use CWM3 and want this on your phone.
Extract contents of zip to C:\
Open CMD prompt
Browse to ADB folder
adb push C:\epic-nexus-moment_sounds_froyo_signed\system /sdcard/system
adb shell
#su
#remount rw
#cp -r /sdcard/system/media /system
edit: I flashed your zip on my epic (went back to old CWM and RFS) and it removed the system sound when you click icons and the dialpad sound

Dialpad and clicking sounds still work here. Make sure your system volume is not set to 0.

This would be awesome if it was made Edify Scrpitagible.. yes.. scriptigible. I just dropped it via root explorer into the /system/ folder

I'm a newbie to flashing with the Epic.... already bricked my wife's phone once. =)
I upgraded to EH17 using Odin and apparently that messed up all her ringtones and notification sounds. I wanted to know if there was a way I could flash this file using CWM 3.1.0.1. I get an error msg saying that amend scripting is not supported.

Take the files out with 7 zip and open a zip file (from a theme!! don't use the srf zip or any other "rom" zips they wipe data) you know works on cwm3. Make a backup and delete all the folders inside besides META-INF then take your old zip and copy the files over to the new zip, of course without the META-INF. Just to clarify you want the new zips META-INF folder only!
Cd's or tapes?

Noob here ....I' am unable to find a zip file which is not a rom file...i wanted to follow the above mentioned procedure of modifying the zip file for using it on CWM3x. Can you tell me which is teh appropriate zip file which i can use for modification so that i can restore the default ringtones of EPIC 4G.
I flashed the legendary rom and saw that many ringtones have been taken off...i want to have stock ringtones back on my system

Grab a flashable theme zip and use that.....
Just make sure inside that zip once you delete out the "theme" contents you leave the META-INF file/folder...
Then make a folder of you own in called
/system
Then inside /system make one called
/media
then inside /system/media/ make one called
/audio
Then place the appropriate folders containing either
/alarms
/notifications
/ringtones
/ui
inside that /audio directory....
Close it up and flash it...
If that is too much for you to follow... Just use this zip I'm providing below..
Blank Flashable
Just open it with WinRaR or WinZip and you will see all the folders in place exactly as I described... Place your contents in the appropriate folders and flash..

followed exactly as mentioned above, downloaded the zip file, opened it and copied the tones as suggested and flashed my phone....the tones did not turn up in the list but i ended up loosing facebook, gmail and couple of other apps !....what could have gone wrong ?

Not sure... There is nothing there in that "Blank Flashable" except for the META-INF file with your standard install scripts and then I created the folders & path to the media/audio/
Not to sure what you could have done to cause FB, GMail and others to be lost as a result of that zip file...
BTW, you did make a Nandroid Backup before flashing as normal rule of thumb correct?
FYI, any other devs, etc... willing to verify the zip I posted has nothing to do with erasing/removing those apps described by the member please feel free to do so...

[Q] Nandroid Backup Rom Installation Problem.

Hi guys, im trying to get the HO!NO rom installed on my Milestone, but im not getting. On the main thread of the ROM, have no walktrough installation and i didn`t find anywhere else. Im too usued with normal ROM installation, as CM7 and MIUI.
Can some1 please give me some idea ? Some thread i should go ?? Searched on almost all threads in development forums and got no answer.
Thanks, hope get it soon.
Bye !

If you have used openrecovery, its very easy. Copy the HONO zip file to the /nandroid/openrecovery folder in your sdcard and use the nandroid restore all option.
The folder gets created automatically if you have created a nandroid backup earlier, else create it manually.
Wipe all if you are flashing it over another rom apart from CM7. There are many topics on using nandroid in the development thread.
Have you never used nandroid before? Also I suggest using Androidiani OR.

I will start the procedure just now. Im thinking in flash the new CM7 that was released today, and then i just install the HO!NO recovery ? In my sdcard don`t have this folder, so i have to create it ? i saw somewhere a folder named /nandroid/abdrecovery.
But as u said, i have to create a /nandroid/openrecovery.
I will try now. See what happens.
Tryed now, and created the /nandroid/openrecovery folder and put the .zip in there.
Didnt recognized when i try to recover. Should i extract ?

Yes. Extract the contents of the zip file so that you have a folder with image files inside.
Sorry abt missing it in the previous post. That's what happens when you start typing in your sleep.
Please use AOR.

Thanks, will try again.

Well, i extracted and still didnt recognized. I did this way:
/nandroid/openrecovery/ let the files on the ROOT, not in HO!NO folder. All on openrecovery root.
Are u sure that is the folder i have to create ?
Thanks again.

Hi again, i guess i made it. Instead of letting files on the root, let it on the HO!NO folder and the openrecovery recognized as a recover.
Now, the weird part is that don`t seems to be ALL working. On the HO!NO topic, the pics he posted have a THEME, and mine appears to have no theme, just a regular one.
Am i doing something wrong ? Thanks!

Guys, i still didnt make it. Flashed CM7 (wiping everythin), then installed the OH!NO! recovery. It`s working weird. I install programs, and when reboot the phone, the programs are not on the list.
I don`t know what to do.
Guess i will back to normal CM7 release.

ClockWork Recovery problem

I can't find my flashable zips in 'choose zip from sdcard'. I tried to put it in a specific folder that I made but it is invisible in clockwork recovery. Also I noticed that old files are visible in clockwork recovery although I already deleted those old files. I can't flash custom rom because of this.
Also when I installed ARHD Google play edition 4.2.2 my virtual sdcard contents were all deleted and my backups gone. I don't know what happened, the aroma installer said that the virtual sdcard will remain untouched. Please help
Is it safe to just reflash CWM? I am having problems with cwm it can't find any file that I put in my sdcard.
-edit-
I restored my phone, safely returned from stock but problem not solved..

please help..

Is there a 0/ entry in you CWM folder list?....... if so your files are in that folder

4.2.2 has a different folder structure to support multiple user.
When you copy a custom ROM.zip to the phone, you find it under SDcard/0/
Make yourself familiar with the new handling of SDcard under 4.2.2
It is explained in the forums

[Q] CWM not writing image.zip on 4.2.2

Hi,
Tried creating an 'image.zip' with CWM 6. There is a successful confirmation message that the file was written to /sdcard/clockworkmod/image.zip. But I can't find the file and there is no change in the available space after supposedly having written the file. I think the file was not saved.
I'm using trickdroid 7.5.0 / android 4.2.2.
Any ideas what's wrong?
Thanks

Did you try TWRP.. anything above and including v2.6.3.3.. unfortunately me being a noob cannot post the link to it.. you will have plenty links here on the forum

Use TWRP CWM has been buggy for a few years now.

I have the same issue. I am on 4.4.4 and I installed CWM only to create this zip file. I only see it within CWM but can't find it in Explorer in the same folder. I generally use TWRP.

CWM stores backups in /data/media/clockworkmod (old 4.1.2 filesystem), now sdcard goes to /data/media/0/....
you'll need to use a root-enabled file explorer to get to /data/media/
