The update.zip file that is supposed to reside in the sdcard folder.
What? Are you talking about the CWM recovery update.zip? if so, there isnn't one to be found unless you put one there... it's just a default name that you could use to make it easy. You have to pick choose zip from sdcard and browse to whatever zip on the sdcard you want to apply...

Will this method work if you get a different device? Say downgrading from a Vibrant to a MT4G?

Yes rename the zip file to update.zip but that should have already been done when you rooted your phone.
^ no. you never rename a rom.
Flash cwr
Reboot into cwr
Install zip from sd
Check out the noob guide (signature) for much more detail and steps.
You can do it from rom manager, but cwr still needs to be flashed.

so the rom doesnt show up in cwm?
make sure the extension is .zip
also check if its inside some folder and not directly in root directory of sdcard
On the computer open up the .tar file and see if the .zip file of the rom is in there the TAR extension is a compressed file which has other files in it

Many file managers can create zips. Also, there are zip applications too.
7zipper on playstore will do the job on you're phone.

Hi
I just bought a second hand nook tablet and it was flashed the CM10.2, I'm preparing to flash CM11 on it, but it seems the recovery is a bit older.
I download the latest recovery.img from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2585175.
But I've no idea about how to update the recovery, could anyone give some help? Thanks in advance.

How do u update TWRP?

Here's how:
Download any flashable internal recovery zip file (e.g., flashable_CWM_6.0.2.9.zip from Succulent's repo http://goo.im/devs/succulent/acclaim/recovery).
Use an archive file manager such as 7-zip to delete and replace the recovery.img inside the flashable zip file with your choice of TWRP (internal recovery) file from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/acclaim (e.g., openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-acclaim.img); remember to rename the downloaded TWRP .img file to recovery.img before inserting it into the zip file.
Flash the resulting flashable recovery zip file using current EMMC recovery or SD-based recovery.
Hello, can anyone extract this widget and send it to me by email? I removed it accidentally but I don't wanna re flash whole system and loose all my settings because of that. I suppose it should be apk and odex files. They can be found in one system directory. Please pm me for email. Thanks

Why don't you open the flashable zip of your rom? Then you can extract it yourself
How to do that? What ROM?

Download a 2.3.6 rom flashable zip file. Open it and go to system/app extract the file and copy it to your phone. Install it and your done.
If you want to install a system app then you need to be rooted. So i thought you already had a flashable zip file.
I got my firmware downloaded only. It is md5.tar file. Is this what you are talking about or should I download something else?

I didn't install anything, just copied apk file from SD card into system/app directory. Odex file can't be replaced. No matter what error, just tell me if I have to run 7ZIP program, pack both files and then flash via CWM?

Reboot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache. Reboot. Maybe that will work.

You flashed a zip file?
Is the apk file still in system/app? If not just place it there and wipe the caches. Without flashing a file.
BTW I don't know exactly how I make a good flashable zip file. Search and it shouldn't be hard to find and make.

The thing is it is not possible to just copy system files into proper directory because it returns error that it can't be replaced.

I'm not allowed to delete system files as they are in use and any operation is restricted, even while rooted!
Whatever, I flashed my firmware from scratch and f**k it still won't work because I run Go Launcher Ex which is not compatible with stock widget.
