So I'm trying to flash Cyanogenmod12 in TWRP But whenever I try to do, It shows me Error executing updater binary in zip twrp. The problem is that whenever I try to flash a lollipop ROM I get this error. Anyone know how can I fix it? Flashing Other ROMs is fine.
Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem, albeit on the Nexus 5 with TWRP 2.8.6.1. Subbing since this was just created today.

Update to Marshmallow - Which ROM and how when TWRP is installed?

Hi everybody,
currently the Lenovo K3 Note runs with Android 5.0 K50a40_S121_150813_ROW (Kao-Alpha2).
OTA provides K50a40_S121_150813_ROW_TO_K50a40_S322_160314_ROW but when downloading the update and confirming the installation phone ends up in TWRP without any further action. I can try to search the downloaded file and install it from TWRP but I did not find it.
When trying to update this file from TWRP by renaming it to update.zip and moving it to the phone update fails with message: unmount of /data failed (-1): Invalid argument script aborted: This package is for "Lenovo K50a40" devices; this is a "Lenovo K3 Note" Error executing updater binary in zip ... Error installing zip file
Does anybody know why this is failing?
Additionally I found within web K50a40_S205_151118_ROW_TO_K50a40_S422_160315_ROW.
Now I am puzzled which ROM version is the correct one? Does anybody by chance know? Could not yet find any information regarding this topic within WWW.
Also I am struggling to get into TWRP by myself. When phone is off and I press volume up and power key I only end up in chinese ROM where I cannot read anything. Can I install OTA version from there? And how can I get into TWRP if wanted?
There are no enhanced reboot menu options and key combination mentioned only brings chinese recovery version up.
Any help appreciated.
Bye
The OTA package can be installed by stock recovery only.
To update the rom using twrp you have to download the full rom.

Where can I get this from? From Lenovo site?

But TWRP recovery does not work for installing the OTA update! Is there any way to get into stock recovery which is english (I could enter into some stock mode after switching on - but its chinese only)?
If your rooted and have twrp then follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/development/official-build-lenovo-k3-note-k50a40-6-t3370537.
If not rooted use KingRoot on PC it worked for me

Thank you (and sorry for that very late reply). I finally managed to install ROM from above mentioned link (was no prio task for quite a long time).
Unfortunately SMS is gone (not existing within that ROM) and not OTA update is shown.
In addition I also cannot install the downloaded OTA version - the same error still occurs: "This package is for "Lenovo K50a40" devices; this is a "Lenovo K3 Note" Error executing updater binary in zip" => so installing the Stock variant from mentioned thread did not help unfortunately!
Is the version from above link already the lastest one? Any ideas, hints, etc.?

Issues installing from twrp

Running a 910t with 6.0.1 firmware

Actual error is:
Updaterrocessor ended with ERROR 1
Error installing zip file ' /external_sd/magisk-v16.0.zip'
Sam error no matter what file I try to install.

Can't update to MIUI V10.2.13.0.PFAMIXM 2.2G with TWRP

Hi, I'm new to modifying Android in any way. I did install TWRP 3.3.1-0 with Magisk 19.3 and I'm trying to install this update. When it restarts the phone, it goes into the TWRP recovery mode and I suppose I need to select the file in the downloaded_rom folder 'miui_CEPHEUSGlobal_V10.2.13.0.PFAMIXM_b529c3de07_9.0.zip', but when I confirm the Flash, I get an error message:
Zip Treble compatibility error!
Invalid zip file format!
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/downloaded_rom/miui_CEPHEUSGlobal_V10.2.13.0.PFAMIXM_b529c3de07_9.0.zip'
I can't find any useful information for this problem. Do you guys have a clue what I should do?
Someone in this thread mentioned, that this TWRP version worked for him. Could that also apply to my problem? If so, should I download most recent version for Android 9.x?
I have a Xiaomi Mi 9 Global Version if that is relevant.
I'm using https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/development/recovery-twrp-3-3-1-siankatabg-t3934962, and everything is fine. It download otg update, can't update then download recovery rom and update from it with no problem.
It worked flawlessly with that TWRP build. Thank you!
