After finally figuring it all out, after about 3 or 4 days I got down to the last step of flashing the Null ROM 23 and I get a failure error
ROM failed to unzip. What Now? It keeps telling me to wipe this, wipe that. I do it and nothing......
Explain it to me like I'm two..
Try re-downloading it again.

OK, I guess I just have no idea what is going on. I'm running CM6.1.
About a week ago, my phone quit receiving text messages. From what I can tell, I just need to update the profile and PRL. I don't see that as an option on CM6.1. So, I try to flash over to a sense based rom.
Every rom I try gives an installation error:
Code:
Copying files...
E:Can't symlink /system/xbin/zcip
E:Failure at line 62:
symlink busybox SYSTEM:xbin/zcip
Installation aborted.
Upon more investigation, I found that a fix was to replace the SPL. I did that with Darch's ENG-SPL.
Still no worky. I can reload CM6, but that's all. Any ideas are much appreciated.
what exactly are you trying to do? flash a sense rom?
where do you get this error message? what recovery do you have?
I have the GodSpeed Recovery/Darchstar Edition. I have been running CM6.1. I am trying to flash any sense-based rom, so I can get in and update my profile and PRL. After I wipe everything, I flash the sense rom (tried 3 different roms).
As the rom is flashing, that error occurs and the rom fails to install.
Again from reading the forums, that error appears to mean that I needed a new SPL. I loaded Darch's ENG-SPL and flashed it. This did not fix the problem.
I noticed that after flashing the SPL, it calls for a reboot. When rebooted, it goes into a soft boot loop restarting at when the HTC logo appears. I can boot to recovery and then at the bottom is says:
Formatting CACHE:...
It stays that way and does not finish. This might be a problem, yet I don't know how to fix it.
So, at this point, I have access to Recovery and that is all.
Had that prob to try to reflash your recovery. If that does not work you might have to ruu and reroot. Ran into that error day before yesterday when trying to update prl/profile. Its a fastboot zip in the dev section. Hope it helps good luck.
Yea it's me Again. With the
Modified .HERO.
Are you running firerat mod?
Hello All,
I recently upgraded my GT-I9000 to CWM10 JellyBean 4.1.2 a week ago and all was fine until last night when I was trying to follow one of the youtube videos to increase the internal memory on my phone. I tried it on my phone and for some reason my phone was stuck in the CWM recovery mode. When I rebooted, the phone was going back into recovery mode. I was panicking and in that rush, I tried doing a reset, clear data, clear cache, dalvik and all other stuff on the recovery mode menu. When nothing worked, I tried re-flashing the JB 4.1.2 from recovery mode. This flashing was erroring after 30% and was returning into recovery mode again. I also tried to use odin to flash the Android 2.3 which didn't work and now it goes into the CWM Recovery v3.0.0.5
Could someone please let me know how to get my phone back to work.
I would be really thankful to you all.
Thanks
First of all you have posted in the wrong section. This is only for development.
To get back the recovery, flash http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufe....1_Jelly_Helly_i9000_CFS_BLN_CMC_20121101.tar in Odin from computer and then flash the Hellybean zip again from the phone.
That is what you should do.
PS: Download the Hellybean zip again. The one that you have now might be corrupted. You need to go into Download mode with 3 Button Combo to use Odin.

Apologies for posting in the wrong section. Could the mod's please move this thread to the correct section please.
Thanks Trak-X the first half of your adivse worked for me (the ODIN bit) and I am now able to get into CWM recovery. I tried reflashing the Hellybean zip but it kept erroring at 10%. Error message is shown below
Installing HellyBean
GSM instllation
assert failed: run_program("/tmp/udater.sh")==0
I also downloaded a new Hellybean zip and tried reflashing with no luck and same error message. Pls advise on how I can go further now. I have a 2.3.6 rom downloaded, shall I flash this first to see if it works and if it does, I can flash Hellybean later.
Fixed!!!

I installed the google apps file and for some reason the phone booted properly this time. Don't know how gapps installation fixed this issue.
I hope someone can help me.
I cannot enter in recovery. Just in Download mode. But my PC doesn't recognise my phone so I can't flash in Odin.
Don't know what to do!?
Greetings. So I never had any issues when flashing new ROMs into my Galaxy S GT-I9000...until now.
Three days ago I went on and started reading topics explaining how to install Android 4.1.2 (Ive picked X-Bean 3.0). One of these topics mentioned I had to install Android 4.0.3 and after that I had to install Semaphore Kernel 1.3.0...and so I did. I've also did all the proper factory resets and cache wipes.
Everything was running smoothly, until I proceeded to install Android 4.1.2. When I went on and was trying to install it, an error message appeared saying the partition layout was different, so I chose the file again and when the phone booted up it kept rebooting endlessly. After that I used Darkys ROM to fix the issue and followed all the way until I ended with Android 4.0.3 again.
The curious thing is that I had flashed my father I9000 before and everything worked out and he has the 4.1.2 version working.
So after extensive search about how to fix the problem and trying the explained solutions, nothing seemed to work. Hence I decided to post here and ask if there's anything I missed or did wrong. If yes, I would be relly thankful if anyone could help me find a solution for it.
Resuming, these were the steps Ive followed until I ended up with Android 4.0.3:
1 - Enter CWM and make a Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik Cache
2 - Install .zip from sdcard>ICS_4.0.3_MR1-RC4.2_I9000
3 - Install .zip from sdcard>Semaphore_ICS_1.3.0s
Thank you
EDIT:
I just installed a new Semaphore version (2.8.0), and now when I try to install X-Bean 3-0, the following message is shown:
"E: error in/sdcard/external_sd/Android 4.1.2.zip

Just install the 4.1.2 zip and then the right kernel without flashing ics before
Redownload the Rom zip and try again
Tell me back if it helped or not

So I tried that, and at first no error message displayed, but at like 2% of the progress bar the phone rebooted and is now stuck on the Semaphore logo, even before I installed it.
Hello there,
Where to start. Ok, I'm not a techy person (so pls dont reply with abreaviations) but I'm half capable, so I decided to upgrade my galaxy s to the x-bean rom.
I flashed my phone using odin to the standard XXJW4 upgrade, rooted it, and transfered the x-bean 3.0 zip and the fix file to the sdcard. Wiped date/factory reset as needed, then when I went to install zip from sdcard the following error message occurs:
E:Error in /sdcard/x-bean 3.0.zip
(status 0)
installation aborted
I'm now using semaphore cwm recovery v6.0.1.3 which i got from a fix I tried.
I've hunted through youtube vids, the recovery section, and the threads for hours!! I've downloaded and tried flashing every file his man and his dog have posted up as fix but nothing is working, all I get is boot loop and this error.
Every time I try upload anything from odin the download stops shortly after it starts and disconnects from the phone. As i can still access recovery and download option tho, does anyone else have a suggedtion which its having a problem accessing the sdcard?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as phone is useless right now
managed to find a file that resolved it all, just incase anyone else has same problem in future

So I posted a help thing about EFS a while back and didnt get to much help with that but i managed to figure things out. Now however
ive got myself into another predicament i cant seem to get out of.
So, from the start, i have a galaxy s3 (GT i-9305T) it was rooted, i still had the stock rom, but was running the beoffla kernal.
The idea was to download and install "JustArchi I9300XXUGML2 stock, deodexed and all the rest" then start finding
some nice themes. Ive got philz_touch_6.07.9-i9305.tar installed for my recovery.
This is where the trouble starts...
So first off i wipe the cache and the davik cache, go to install the rom then i get this: (ill go from installing update)
assert failed: write_raw_image (" /tmp/boot.img" , " /dev/block/mmcblk0p5" )
E: Error in /storage/sdcard1/Just archi........zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
Now i looked up a whole heap of pages to see if i could sort it out myself and i tried a few different things,
none of which have prevailed. First i tried to reflash an insecure boot image then try again, nup. I tried to
flash back to stock recovery and re format (No errors) then back to custom. Mounted /data and /system
and re formatted which worked with no error, still same error when flashing rom though. Also tried flashing
with different custom recovery, no luck there either.
There were a few other things i tried but i cant really remember what i did because
this has been a problem for a while now. Some of the pages i looked over for
information were:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045887
And this is the one im on at the moment, im currently downloading a stock rom from sammobile to try flash.

Finished downloading the stock rom, tried to install with philz recovery and got this:
Installing: /storage/sdcard1/I9305TDVBME2_I9305TTELBME1_TEL (STOCK).zip

And thats it, no kind of specific error codes or anything.

Can anybody at all shed some light on my situation,
or at least a place for me to start learning myself...
Hi.
If you downloaded the stock ROM from sammy mobile are these not meant to be installed via Odin?
There are a few post if you search for some of the pre rooted stock ROMs that you can flash with odin.
I would start from there.

The roms i downloaded from samsmobile were in .zip files, which im pretty
sure has to be flashed with one of the custom recoveries.
Thanks though
at first seems you tried to flash rom designed for i9300
then, you downloaded an ODIN image and you have to flash it by ODIN, no way you'd flash it over any recovery
to be more specific:
unzip the file I9305TDVBME2_I9305TTELBME1_TEL (STOCK).zip you downloaded, you should get a huge file with extension of .md5 or .tar
read in the forums how to use ODIN to flash firmware

water damaged but i did here boot audio only once) so im
letting my phone sit in a bag of rice in pieces for the night
and am going to check things out tommorrow.
