status 0 error - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was trying to modify the stock 244 rom using kitchen.I built the zip successfully but when flashing i always get a status 0 error.I know that the error is because of the updater script but i dont know how to modify it for my xperia z.I am new to this so someone please help me to successfully build the rom.

anyone willing to help?

Download a Rom and have a look at their updater script. Then modify yours as required.

I tried that.It seems I have to add c6602 support in kitchen edify folder.Can you help me?I tried some links without success

Status 0 errors are usually caused by an incompatible update-binary.
Try replacing the update-binary in your zip with one from a zip you know works on your phone.

Well I have zips of a few cm based roms.But I dont think the updater scripts of those will work with my modified stock right?
I didnt do that because i fear i might brick my phone or something..

I don't mean the update-script, I mean the update-binary. All the script does is tell the recovery what files to replace.
Bricking your phone depends on what you're trying to change. Generally you can only do it by flashing a wrong kernel.

oh u mean i can use the update binary from the cm rom in my rom?

Yep. After you build with kitchen or whatever, simply substitute update binary from Meta Inf blah blah, from the Cm10 of your device to your own zip. :thumbup:

1.open the 2.2 rom you want to flash on the file explorer on your computer then click into the META-INF folder then com, google, android, and u will see the file updater script, delete that file (if u have problems getting that to delete use a program like winrar)
2.put the updater script u downloaded in replace of the old one (if winrar or any other program made u unzip the file and didnt zip it back up automaticlly make sure its done then place the file back to your phone and flash away

This is helpful, but you have to know why first. The difference is the difference in the install scripts. In CWM versions before CWM3, we used amend scripting. Amend scripting is no longer supported in CWM3 and above, it now uses edify scripting.
Kernels that contain recovery prior to CWM3, you can flash the old scripts just fine. For example, cmenards latest JVQ based kernel supports both amend and edify scripting, and is based off CWM 2.5.x.x.
Its all in knowing what you are running, and what's compatible.
I wont get too preachy on this, but Odin is your friend, nothing to be scared or wary of, and with regular use to actually set you back to stock, will create a much better running environment for your Vibrant experience. Shortcuts around it will eventually cause all kinds of issues.

Wondering
Has this worked for anyone?
The OP missed some key points in this "guide".
If your zip file is using is using the old amend scripting, then there will be one file called update-script (not updater).
The newer scripts, edify scripting, uses two files, update-binary and updater-script, and you need both files if your kernel or recovery method is cwm3 or later, edify scripting only.
Or you could save a dev a future headache, and just use Odin.

You're talking about his last deadhorse kernel. That one, if memory serves me, even has a pre-kernel flash that you did through sgs kernel flasher, then the rom and full kernel. Coming from that one friend, I do believe Odin is your only option.

You can do them manually by editing the system UI and changing some settings.. but you need to be rooted for that.. or yes PA is a custom rom which has feature of changing status bar color and icons

this is sound interesting, iam rooted, so how to do it?
Do you have cwm recovery ? Backup, wipe, flash rom+gapps zips. Reboot.
If u dont have cwm recovery flash a recovery image using odin or heimdall.
Dont know how to do that? Search/google.

PimpMyRom CWM Problem!

Hallo community
Im using Paranoid build 10 with pimp my rom
everthing is fine. PimpmyRom is a great mod but i still have some proble3ms.
I cant install bravia engine and pimpmybeats. CWM starts but didnt flash.
error. cant flash aborted status 0.....
i even cant flash manually.
i tried cwm und twrp before
thanks
Does manual flash also tell you the same?
If so then you have a corrupted zip.
And the auto flashing also does not take in my device also. I think that it is also a common problem.

A status 0 error is probably a problem with the update-binary file in the zip you're trying to flash. Replace it with one from a zip you know works and that should fix your problem.

[Q] Cronmod on Jellybean

Hey guys,
I tried to flash the Cronmod script on the latest Paranoid Android rom from OldDroid. First I flashed a patched servicr.jar, then
I mounted /data and /sdext, flashed the script and then formated /sdext.. but it doesn't work.
Can someone tell me what I did wrong there? Or is Cronmod not working on Android 4+?

I think mounting /system is enough because the script'll be placed in /system/etc/init.d folder

Okay I tried it again but it still doesn't work..
I flashed Paranoid Android, then I flashed the patched service.jar from you directly. After that I wiped cache and dalvic cache and rebooted.
After the first reboot I went into recovery and mounted /system and /data then I flashed the script and formated /sdext.
I don't know what I've done wrong there.. Maybe I flashed the service.jar not correctly?

:weird:
Try mounting /sd-ext and formating it when the installation
If it doesn't work, extract the script file from .zip file and put it into init.d manually and set the correct permissons, finally reboot your phone, it should work too

Hmm I tried it now on another rom (ICS) and now it's working, but with some weird bugs. When I long press the on/off button (I mean the one in the right side) only the word 'shutdown' appears.. Usually there should be more than this one word (There should be buttons for silence mode, vibration mode,...)
Plus there isn't a lockscreen anymore.. weird

The bug is nothin but the conflict between diff scripts. If we use the necessary n specific scripts SGA ll be good rather than flashin evry script available.

yes you may be right that the rom may not support it
I red some time ago that someone posted a modified version of cronmod in order to make it work on android 4+. You can use the kernel patcher by (I don't remember his name now, sorry) that wipe the rom on the ext4 partition. Good luck Peace!

[CM] Cyanogenmod SU Upgrade

Helllo. I started this thread because of a common error in cyanogenmod rom. Did you install a root app using cm rom but, like Titanium Backup, it said something like "the app won't work properly with your su binary"? Well, I build a CM Rom using the latest SuperSU binary, app (1.86) and busybox version with it.
CM 10.2 11122013: http://d-h.st/Fmm
If you found this thread & rom usefull reply me to know if I may continue with this CM version.
Although your work and effort I'm sure don't go unappreciated I'm just positive your approach was wrong. Take no offense from my post, more so advice. I would never flash this on my device nor do I think anyone else should. Not to say that it's bad but there's a guideline for posting ROMs, you can see it above or below your thread. I'm just saying wouldn't you be a little weary of flashing this if I threw it up like that. Not trying to run you off, just trying to offer some advice.

yes it is problem due to binaries...
So instead of flashing above package one can simply install super su from play store and update binaries!!
Enjoy..!
And do this thread belong here?
