Are u using Modaco's stock update zip or the stock passion image zip...
if ur using the passion image zip, rename it to PASSIMG.zip, pop it onto ur SD card, reboot into recovery and it'll ask u if u want to install it...
if ur using Modaco's stock update zip, check the md5 or re-download it and flash via Amon_RAs recovery...
Hi folks.
Having some problems everytime I try to boot in recovery mode or try to install a ROM using ROM Manager.
when my phone boots into manual recovery mode, I eventually get this message.
E: can't open /cache/update.zip
(bad)
Installation Aborted
I've made sure I have my update.zip in the root of my internal sd. In manual recovery mode, I even selected the "reinstall packages" option and it would execute just fine and then reboot my phone.
So I'm stuck scratching my head as to why I get the error message above and can't access the additional menu items in the manual recovery mode.
Help please as I am a noob to this hacking stuff.
THanks everyone!
after you reinstall packages and it reboots, do you select reinstall packages again? you should because it takes 2 times to get into clockworkmod

When I boot into manual recovery mode and select reinstall packages, the phone reboots and turns on...it doesn't go back to the <2e> recovery menu. Does that sound right?

There's your problem. Your new file should NOT be named update.zip. The update.zip package MUST be the one for CWM. Its this update.zip that is used when you choose reinstall package and then you get into 2e recovery mode.
Name your file something different so it won't interfere with the update.zip of CWM on your sd root.
If you deleted that CMW update.zip file just return in CMW and reinstall the Recovery. It will push the update.zip again.
Not sure I completely understand.
to give clearer picture, here is where my update.zip file is located.
/sdcard (folder)
within the /sdcard folder are the following:
/Android
/clockworkmod
/DCIM
/download
/layar
/media
/sd
/tmp
...and finally, my update.zip file
so I'm assuming the update.zip is in its proper location within the /sdcard folder
With the file there, I reboot into manual recover and select reinstall packages...it executes and the phone boots up and turns on. It doesn't return me to the manual recovery mode again and I'm assuming it is during the return to the manual recovery mode where I can access additional menu items such as install from SD.
So I'm assuming this update.zip file I have now is the one for CWM. Thoughts?
at what point did you FLASH clockwork recovery manager? are you sure that update.zip file thats on there isnt for something else like the root?
to be honest, at this point I'm not entirely sure. the update.zip could be for the root.
what do you mean by flash clockwork recovery manager...when I go into ROM Manager, under the Recovery heading I see the following options.
Flash ClockworkMod Recovery (Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 2.5.1.2)
Reboot into Recovery

-First delete every update.zip you have in /sdcard
-Return in ClockworkMod and tap on Flash ClockworkMod Recovery (yes it will reinstall the recovery, thus copying the right update.zip onto the /sdcard).
-Now rename your .zip you were trying to install (ie. my_new_file.zip)
-Copy it in /sdcard
-Reboot into Recovery and select Reinstall Package (if it goes directly into the recovery menu even better)
-Now you should be in the CWM Recovery.
-Select the "install zip from sdcard"
-Select your "my_new_file.zip" to flash it.
-Reboot in normal mode.
ok...so I went into ROM Manager application and tapped on Flash ClockworkMod Recovery
A status bar displayed and it completed like in a second or 2. Then I went into my /sdcard directory and there is no update.zip file there. Doesn't seem like it is copying the update.zip file into the directory.
No biggy, just means the recovery is correctly installed.
Just follow the procedure and try it like it is and see if you get a error.
flashing clockwordmod recovery doesn't install an update.zip on your sd card (1 click roots do).
All flashing CWM recovery does is install clockwork recovery in place of standard recovery mode.
ok...so I've deleted the update.zip file from the /sdcard directory.
went into ROM Manager and clicked on Flash ClockworkMode Recovery
Rebooted my phone and got to the <2e> screen. I click on reinstall packages and now it gives me an error message that the update.zip cannot be found.
So then I used z4 root to unroot. I then rooted my phone again and found that it didn't place an update.zip in the /sdcard directory. So it appears without the update.zip in the /sdcard directory I cannot reinstall packages. But if I put the update.zip file back into the /sdcard directory, I can reinstall packages, but then I'm back to the same issue again....feels like a never ending loop.
ok...finally got things to work. Looks like I had the wrong update.zip file in my /sdcard.
I searched the forums and found the correct one that now allowed me to reinstall packages twice and take me to the full recovery menu.
for others that may need the update file, it is located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9850347&postcount=1687
That was it!
Awesome, thanks! I had just returned my Captivate to AT&T for a replacement today, and I was pretty convinced the shysters had made it harder for me to re-root and mod my phone. Now, how do I wire you a beer?
If you downloaded with your phone right after rooting, make sure you delete the update from the general sd card folder and move the update from your download folder to the general sd card folder. I had flashed with odin and rom manager last night and i had to install it that way due to fact clockwork has been down.
My phone is là Sony Xperia X8 android 2.1.
When i type "flash_image recovery /sdcard/cm-recovery-1.3.1.img" in "terminal emulator", it appear: "can't find recovery partition".
It is so unreasonable because i copied the file "cm-recovery-1.3.1.img" in root sdcard.
Please help me.
Why is it unreasonable? We cant flash custom recovery yet, only xRecovery which runs by boot hijacking...

RECOVERY partition is NOT present in xperia devices. Recovery is stored in BOOT partition. So if you want the CWM recovery on your Xperia X8, then you need to flash your device with a custom boot.img with CWM recovery included in it.

Try redownloading the file.
I have redownloaded the file and replaced on SD card but still get the same problem. Should I be installing the "CWM 5.0.2.6" file in the clockwork mod part(yellow text) or the Android recovery mode (orange text) part?
So frustrating, Im obviously doing something wrong!
p.s if I try to apply in the android update from from sdcard I get a status 2 error.

Hi..
I want to clean install Android 4.0.4 OS on my Samsung galaxy s plus (GT-19001) device.
Clean install means that i 'll have to install OS from scratch. Does i need Micro USb Jig for this purpose?
I have below files.
1-> cm-9-20121011-ivendor-ariesve-rc5.zip
2-> gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
3-> recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-ariesve.zip
4> CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4
Guide me in simple steps , i tried many times to install ICS (Android 4.0.4) but unfortunately unsuccessfull each time.
Why it didn't work for me?
I have tried in many ways. Thanks in advancee
Hey,
Could you tell me what was unsuccessful about the install? Did it stop installing, did it bootloop, so on so forth?
But this is how I flashed CM9 onto my I9000, and I know that the I9001 is very similar so...
1.) You've got CWM, sweet. Boot into recovery. Make a bckup of your data through the option provided.
2.) Wipe data/cache/Dalvik cache. The first two are pretty simple to do, the last one is under "Advanced" settings.
3.) Now that you've got that, select "Install zip from SD". Navigate to where your CM9 file is. Select and confirm. Wait for it to flash in...
4.) At this point you might get a recovery bootloop. Don't panic here- just take out the battery, reinsert. Reboot into recovery. You should see that your recovery has been updated.
5.) Reselect the rom from the "Install zip from SD" option. This time it should start flashing in. Wait for it to finish, then it should reboot normally. Be patient as it boots up for the first time.
6.) Once you've done so, reboot into recovery again but this time select the gapps zip.
Unless the I9001 is different in a major way in terms of installing, that should work. I'm not quite sure...
Hope I helped

Hi.
I just started with CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4 and placed all above mentioned files/packages into the device internal SD card.
That's what i did :
1). Entered into the recovery mode menu by holding down Volume Up + Power and installed CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4 zip from the selection of Internal SD Card .
2). After reboot, i came up again in Recovery mode using CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4 application.
3). Now installed cm-9-20121011-ivendor-ariesve-rc5.zip by the navigation of "Install zip from SD".
It took hardly 4 to 5 seconds and displayed a message that it completes . no flash screen or anything came up and reboot.
4). After that installed gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip by the navigation of "Install zip from SD".
It displayed same complete message but within 5 to 8 seconds i think.
5). I Wipe data/cache/Dalvik cache after above step and then again repeat the process.
After that i did Wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.
Now when i try to start my device then each time it comes into the CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4' s recovery mode.
Ask please i have tried too many things with it but yet not soft bricked.
I am able to switch into Download mode.

Perfectly simple guide! Thanks.:good:
The only thing I want to ask - what is the backup you have mentioned in point 1)? Is it back up of your personal data, or is it back up of your current ROM?
Hey man, glad I made it simple
Yeah, its a backup of your whole rom I believe- system apps, system files, all your downloaded apps all your data, so on so forth.
Helps you get back to what you were running before in case something goes wrong during installation.

Hmmm... Okay, I see...
What recovery did you start with before flashing CWM 5.5.0.4? Because I think what happens is that in whatever recovery you start with, you start by flashing in the CM9 file directly, instead of flashing a different CWM version in first.
So a good place to start would be back at 2.3.6 (don't know the firmware for the I9001). That can be done through download mode and Odin (If you need help with that feel free to ask). Then root again, get recovery back.
Flashing in the CM9 file the first time actually doesn't take long- maybe 5-10 seconds as you said, before bootlooping. What that bootloop does is it actually sets up a newer recovery, so that you can properly flash CM9 in.
Once you flash in the CM9 file the first time, try flash it in a second time. If it takes 4-5 seconds again then you have a problem, otherwise it should take a little bit for the file to install.
It will reboot; like I said in my little guide, just turn off, reboot into recovery and flash in Gapps, then let it boot.
Also, I don't think you need to wipe everything after the CM9 zip finishes. I didn't need to, and it worked fine...
Again, hope I helped

-> Could you elaborate the above sentence please? As long as i understood I initially installed CWM recovery through recovery mode by holding +Vol + Power+ Home.
So a good place to start would be back at 2.3.6 (don't know the firmware for the I9001). That can be done through download mode and Odin (If you need help with that feel free to ask). Then root again, get recovery back.
-> Yes i have been reverted through Odin Stock Gingerbread. How to root again? Could you please enlist in points?
Flashing in the CM9 file the first time actually doesn't take long- maybe 5-10 seconds as you said, before bootlooping. What that bootloop does is it actually sets up a newer recovery, so that you can properly flash CM9 in.
-> I don't think it's a bootlooping situation. When i start my device , It dispays CWM recovery screen each time even after the sucessull completion of CM9 and gapps,
Once you flash in the CM9 file the first time, try flash it in a second time. If it takes 4-5 seconds again then you have a problem, otherwise it should take a little bit for the file to install.
It will reboot; like I said in my little guide, just turn off, reboot into recovery and flash in Gapps, then let it boot.
-> I tried it many time right now and 2-3 months ago too but it took almost 20 - 30 seconds in first attempt.
Also, I don't think you need to wipe everything after the CM9 zip finishes. I didn't need to, and it worked fine...
-> I tried through Wipe and with it but could start my OS. Instead it display everytime a CWM screen.

In last , i did below steps :
1) Boot into recovery.
2) Wipe data/Factory reset.
3) Wipe cache.
4) Go to Advanced, then wipe Dalvik cache.
5) Go back, go to Mount & Storage, then Format System.
6) Go back, go to Install zip from SD Card => Choose zip from SD Card => cm-9-20121011-ivendor-ariesve-rc5.zip.
7) Do the same thing for the gapps zip.
8) Wipe data/Factory reset again (just to be sure).
9) Reboot.
Go into the cm10 thread by ivendor in developement section and in the middle of the 1st post is a download link for cwm 6.0.1.9. Flash it in recovery and reboot. The Problem should be gone.
Had the same issue.
Hope i helped

No i meant that you can install everything like in your guide and after that you install the cwm 6.0.1.9 and reboot, then you should be in recovery and then you have to reboot your phone and it should start normally
This solved it for me
Hope i helped
That's what I understood now:
0.5) Entered into the recovery mode menu by holding down Volume Up + Power and installed CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4 zip from the selection of Internal SD Card .
1) Boot into CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4 Recovery mode.
2) Wipe data/Factory reset.
3) Wipe cache.
4) Go to Advanced, then wipe Dalvik cache.
5) Go back, go to Mount & Storage, then Format System.
6) Go back, go to Install zip from SD Card => Choose zip from SD Card => cm-9-20121011-ivendor-ariesve-rc5.zip.
7) Do the same thing for the gapps zip.
8) Wipe data/Factory reset again (just to be sure).
9) Reboot
10) Then install the cwm 6.0.1.9 and reboot.
It could be solution, i will try and 'll tell at today night (after 6 hours).
It should be the right way but you can skip step 5 and 9
Hope i helped

Dear Markey,
Whyn't should i start from cwm 6.0.1.9 rather than CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4 .
Should i require to check from it or not? cwm 6.0.1.9 support cm-9-20121011-ivendor-ariesve-rc5.zip ?

I don't know if cwm 6.0.1.9 supports cm9 but it should.
You could try it out and tell me back
when i go in advance and select wipe dalvik cache option.
it display an error:
E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
Dalvik Cache wiped.
After completion of each step, i tried again but still not start OS.

Got the same error, i think its normal
Ok, then flash this file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=861538&d=1326841043 in recovery, reboot and tell me back if it works
Or you could try this way if the other isn't working: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=928219&d=1330695090 its the stock recovery, flash it in recovery and reboot and tell me back. I think you should first try stock recovery and then the other file. Sry for the wrong order
Hope it will work again

I mean that you have to install them via recovery with install update from sd card or with install zip from sd card -> its called flashing
And i meant that you have to install the first file first and reboot and if its not working when you reboot then install the stock recovery and then the problem should be solved. But then you have to flash the cwm recovery everytime you want to flash something like a new kernel or a custom rom
Hope i could help
Markey,
I did the same as you are saying and got the above error on each file.
Could you explain the below linw please ?
But then you have to flash the cwm recovery everytime you want to flash something like a new kernel or a custom rom
What i 'll have to do now?

Which recovery do you use?
Cwm or stock recovery?
If you use stock then you have to reboot without installing one of the files and the problem should be solved
I meant that if you want to install another kernel or custom Rom you have to install the cwm recovery because its better then stock and after installation of the Rom or kernel you have to reinstall the stock recovery
If you don't understand i'll write you a guide for what you have to do
