[Q] CM nightlys fail, used to work???

i have been downloading CM nightlys to my pc, copying them to my phone's internal storage, then flashing the zip using recovery (twerp v2.6.3.0) successfully for 3 or 4 months. I found CM Downloader app on the app store and down loaded that. I set the setting to automatically check for a new build, and download it. it did download the new builds although they failed to flash. 3 days after this started happening, CM came out with a 'snapshot' version. that one flashed ok. but the 'nighly' builds no longer flash. I have uninstalled CM downloader, and tried downloading them to the PC and copying them to the phone, that no longer works either. I have reinstalled CM downloader no change. so I think there is something changed on the phone that needs to be fixed, or reset or something. I appreciate any ideas here, I am still entry level skill level, so be gentle

OK, I have downloaded the 2 files. placed them in a directory near my root directory on my pc. placed the phone in fastboot usb, opened a command prompt window from that directory. typed in fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-m7wls-2.7.0.9-05-01-2014
and I get error: cannot load 'fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-m7wls-2.7.0.9-05-01-2014'
per a video showing how to flash recovery, I also tried the command adb reboot bootloader I get error : device not found
back to my pc, I open device manager, and I show a device labeled android device that is working properly.
stumped at this point.
is updating recovery the same as the initial install of a custom recovery?
do I need updated drivers for win 7? where are the latest? all videos say they are the latest, but that was when they were recorted.
thanks for help!

Yes u need updated drivers....any easy solution however is go and get the app flashify u will need root of course...it allows u to flash recovery that is on ur sd card. Just choose the img and flash recovery in the app then reboot into recovery and u will be good to go.

Thank you!
Thanks to both of you, updated TWERP did the trick and Flashify allowed me to install it without the fastboot, and PC hookup which was not working. Latest nightly installed, I am a happy camper!

Ok, let me get this straight, snag this Flashify, then snag TWRP 2.7.1.1, flash it with Flashify and I am golden????
(I am unlocked and S-Off running CM-11)

All u have to do is update your recovery. So u can grab the latest TWRP and flash it any method u wish. Fastboot is best but flashify is the most convenient. After u flash your recovery the CM Rom should flash perfectly. Note: If u experience any failures in flashing any Rom that u know is good just downgrade your recovery via which ever method u prefer and that should flash fine now. You can always use the recovery zip floating around on the android development thread I'll see if I can find it for u.
Here u go bud http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2656065
Note if the flash fails try a older zip until it works and flash the twrp by TD. Don't forget to thanks rootlinux for the zips. Might also want to keep the zips in handy on the phone storage incase the Note situation appears.

Here is how to do it in case you don't know...
> Place the downloaded .zip in downloaded_rom folder in your internal storage (do not rename it to update.zip)
> Press the menu key and select "Select update package" (navigate to the proper location and select the file)
> Select update
> Once flashed, reboot when prompted
> Flash again the same file the same way, reboot
You are good to go
Hope this helps..

Updater.apk not working

So I've tried to root my xiaomi mi 3 running the latest official miui 6, using the update package v23 provided on this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-3/general/root-recovery-rom-qa-xiaomi-mi3-wcdma-t2830538
After doing so, the phone did not get root access and furthermore whenever I open updater I get a message "Unfortunately, Updater has stopped". I then tried factory reset in hope that the updater app would return to the previous state. Nothing happened unfortunately and the situation remains the same. I have then decided to download the official build from the website. I renamed it as 'update.zip' placed it on the root of the device and went into the provided xiaomi recovery, clicked update but I got an error. Is there any way to return to the previous state? To make updater work again?

Why did you used a file of MIUI5 V23 for MIUI6?
What error are you getting in recovery?
You can try to flash fastboot ROM that will reinstall the ROM and repair config files. Use the one according to your device.

I flashed it because I asked in an another thread if it will work, and someone said it will... In the recovery I get a message like this
'Install Update.zip Failed
Error applying update'
Do you think I should use this tutorial for fastboot flashing? http://en.miui.com/thread-11047-1-1.html
Do I lose my warranty by peforming flashing through fastboot? How should I root the device afterwards? Should I flash the developers version?

You will not loose warranty for applying MIUI ROM in fastboot. However before that you should check if you have downloaded correct full ROM zip file and the zip is not corrupted. You can try extracting it and if throws any error than it is corrupted. If the zip is ok and updating through recovery does not work than fastboot seems to be only option.
There are fastboot ROMs available for stable build of MIUI6 as well.
For Root you can try this.
http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=52192&extra=&highlight=root+for+miui+6&page=1
If that does not work, provide me with the build.prop file from the ROM zip you have downloaded I will try to make a root file for you.

[HELP] ROM flashing error.

I am trying to flash the 7.1.1 AOSP-CAF ROM (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/aosp-caf-6-0-t3284309/page50) on my Moto G 2014. When I try to install this ROM, it gives an error : Error executing updater binary zip in data/media/zip.( even though the zip file is in the SD card).
I googled it found that some threads suggest updating Custom Recovery or updating the Binary script. but I don't know the exact process to do that.
I am a noob so please help me out here!

FWIW, I have a utility for expanding sparse files.
Then you can flash them with any utility like a flat file.
Yeah, there are a zillion utilities that do that.
They are mostly named simg2img.

Nope, the update is done with OTA(Zip.format) then the Twrp.
update the TWRP first.
