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/

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

Hi All,
I'm relatively new to Android (had the Nexus 7 for about a year). My questions is this:
I have 4.2.2 currently loaded. When I orinally got the nexus 7, I used a toolkit to unlock the bootloader and root the device, so I could install SixAxis and a few other apps that required root.
What is the easiest way for me to now update to 4.3? Will the OTA update that is bound to show up on the device shortly work?
BTW This is the WiFi only Nexus 7, 16 GB and my main PC at home is a Mac.
Thanks.

Do you have a link of a guide that I could follow on how to flash the factory image?
Can I download the zip and then use the clockwork recovery i have installed to load the zip?
I don't think that having the bootloader locked or unlocked will really affect the OTA..

I dont think having it unlocked will effect the ota (it hasnt in the past for me), but it sounded like he wanted to flash the factory image. I actually have a nandroid of it on my unlocked n7. Gonna flash the official and see if I can get the ota later...
I've taken OTAs no problem on an unlocked, rooted device with TWRP recovery. So you're fine.

Did you install the aosp browser and rename the default browser apk and odex files or modify the buildprop file? Those must be as original to take the update. Also, you should have gotten a message about what failed when you get the Status 7 error. What else did it say?

Does it make a difference that my current build number in "about tablet" shows as JDQ39 and not JDFQ39 as above?
The problem file is 'debuggerd' in the /system/bin folder as it says in the error message. I had the same issue previously on the last N7 update. I had to get the original file from someone since the file had been replaced by another app (possibly Stickmount) or it can be extracted from the previous update to 4.2.2. I don't know about the JDFQ39 compared to the download file showing JDQ39, but that is the same file I downloaded. The (1).zip means you had previously downloaded the file and this is an additional d/l. That shouldn't be a problem, but you can delete the (1) if you want.
I'll try flashing through CWM and let you know if mine worked. If so, I can send you the right 'debuggerd' file.

Well, I got the debuggerd error also. I'll try the backup debuggered file I used in the last update. Otherwise, I'll have to find the debuggerd file from 4.2.2. Any help out there?

Still no joy. I think someone will have to get the right debuggerd file and get it to one us on a pm or email. Also, I noticed on my update try that the file was listed as JDQ39. ... and not the JDFQ39. ... that you saw.

once we get the file, how do I replace the file with the debuggerd that is currently on the nexus?
What I will do is to copy the debuggerd file to the N7 internal storage root folder from my pc. Then I will rename /system/bin/debuggerd to debuggerd.bak (or whatever extension you want to add). Then I will copy the correct debuggerd file from sdcard to /system/bin and try the update again. I started a new thread asking for someone with an unaltered 4.2.2 debuggerd file to send it to me. If I get it I'll pass it along to you.

The CWM backup is located in '/data/media/clockworkmod/backup/' (from root) and is not visible from the pc.
Using ES file explorer or root explorer copy the folder in the '/data/media/clockworkmod/backup/' directory to '/data/media/0/' and then you'll be able to see it from your pc and copy across....... remember to delete the copy from '/data/media/0/' afterwards

Hey All, have google and googled for the past week but nothing specific to this issue I'm having.
I want to restore my stock firmware so I can get OTA updates! I didn't make any sort of backup when I began playing with different roms. I have htc_039 unbranded aus htc one. Bootloader has been unlocked with S-on and TWRP installed.
Downloaded Deevans/bugsys nandroid backup that matched my phone details (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41368105&postcount=375&nocache=1&z=2030115523399023) but there isn't any sort of instructions on installing these.
When i have tried to flash the rom I get "installation aborted" and when playing with fastboot it has given me messages that it cannot find certain .txt files (something like android.txt and a few other ones.
Could someone please tell me what im doing wrong or list the instructions to install this? I don't know if I have to lock the phone again, restore the recovery file first, no idea!!! Or is there anyway to turn the Android Revolution 12 image to get OTA (i dont think so)?
If you need any further phone info I will post.
Can anyone help with this?
When I try to flash the file in TWRP it starts and stops at "Updating partition Details".
What have i not setup right? Have been using these resources:

Hi,
I'm new to the htc one so not sure here but from what I understand and anyone please correct me if wrong - but if it's Deevans nandroid 1.29.980.2 (Australia unbranded) it's a CWM backup and I don't think they work in TWRP.
So think you would have to flash CWM, then flash "restore" nandroid from CWM or find a TWRP nandroid.
Also think you need s-off before you do ota as no way to gain s-off with revone on updated hboot 1.54 yet.
Hope this helps.

I have tried to install this with CWM which gave me those first missing ".txt" files. I will give it another go with CMW and post the results.
I will also S-OFF before doing the above.
Phone is now S-off and put CWM as the loader. Tried the zip file again and says:
Finding update package
Opening update package
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
I have also downloaded the file twice to confirm its not corrupted and it opens through winrar with no problems.
Any other suggestions?

I would try restore it like a backup, so unzip and put files in your CWM backup folder.
Not sure how CWM backup folder looks but in TWRP it's like /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/... or /data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/...
So I would try unzipping and copy files (boot, data, recovery, system) to /sdcard/CWM/BACKUPS/folder/put files in here - then boot to recovery and try "restore" option and browse to backup folder. You could probably copy the files to any folder on the sdcard and restore from recovery not sure.

Thanks for your suggestion and that was going to be my next question. The file I mentioned in the first post is x.xxx.xxx.zip (x as the numbers) and inside that zip is a folder with the same name x.xxx.xxx and inside that folder are all the files.
I tried putting the folder only in CMW but wont detect it, tried it with the .zip file and fails. Have now just put all the files into the folder and tried again with same failure.
There is a very long error in the recovery.txt file it made, don't know if its any use but the first line that pops out is:
Starting TWRP 2.6.0.1 on Fri Aug 2 06:23:49 2013
BOARD_HAS_NO_REAL_SDCARD
I put the file into this link if you know of anything, makes little sense to me. http://pastebin.com/Tvp2Qp2X

I have now tried both TWRP and CWM and fails, also have installed ROM manager and another one I cant recall from play store. Also booted into recovery and went to the 'restore' option from the menu but cant find any directories..
I dont know if this has anything to do with it but noticed in the contents of the file:
ARCHIVE: cache.ext4.tar
ARCHIVE: data.ext4.tar
ARCHIVE: system.ext4.tar
boot.img
cache.ext4.tar.a
data.ext4.tar.a
nandroid.md5
recovery.img
recovery.log
system.ext4.tar.a
system..ext4.tar.b
Not to get ahead of myself but HTC ONE is ext2or 3 by default, its not something simple as having to change it to ext4? Its just something that stood out.
Just done google search on CWM backup location and seems to be /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup - so you could try copy the zip and/or files there and try restore from CWM recovery and see if that works.

Interesting that there was no 'backup' folder inside that folder. Have created it and putting the files and zip in there now.
Was also googl'n and found this article:

Someone mentioned to now open the zip file when it downloads. I'll try your suggestions and this and let you know what happens tomorrow.

At what place would I flash the Recovery?
To install android you will create a folder on the touchpad called cminstall.
This folder contains the three files needed to install android - moboot, cwm and whichever version of android you prefer. Optionally you can flash gapps from this folder too.
There are much better tutorials on the web and this site than the ones you quote - the first is irrelevant to installng android, and there are better ones here on xda than the second.
Also the recoveries you mention are for installing kitkat which requires repartitioning of the file system. Prob best to stick to JB for now
Cheers

But when I attempt to extract the Acme Installer - I downloaded ACMEInstaller5M - but when I try to extract with 7Zip to the Nova Directory it keeps giving me an error?
You don't need to extract the acmeinstaller file, just place it in Program Files/Palm, Inc, open up a terminal window and enter in the command to run it.
Of course, you do this after you have set up your cminstall folder on the touchpad.
A word of advice - I find it useful to have 2 copies of the rom you want to flash - one in the cminstall folder, and one in the root folder of the touchpad. This is because sometimes the flashing process with acme can be a bit funny, and it automatically deletes the files in cminstall once its done. I've flashed a couple of touchpads with acme and Android hasn't installed properly, so having a backup somewhere else on the touchpad is useful.

It's been awhile since I have had to use acme but I believe it is a jar file so either use a different browser to download or change the file extension from (.zip to .jar).
Unfortunately I am not at my PC but can check later if someone else is unable to confirm this.
