I want to install cynogenmod but when i try to install the zip mod files in recovery mode i got this error
error in sdcard/update.zip (Status 0)
pls help
You need to read the rules and make a search. I know search results may not make sense but the answer is out here.
Most likely it is somthing wrong with the file. Or try custom file in recovery. Depending on version.
what is ur recovery version ?
what is the rom ?
I started with 0.8 i think and roms, alot difrent ones latest cm7pro v20. GingerDX are nice to.
You must notice that there is a difference betwen x10 mini and pro it differs alot

Beside that don't say the mount error?
Also try without rename the rom to update.zip.

I have same problem with a friend's phone it says mount error with cwm using nAa kernel 11. What could it be?
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
Don't use the update feature, use install zip or custom rom, don't remember exactly right now. The update.zip didn't work for me so i haven't used it after that.

Do this:
1. Re/Boot to recovery of course.
2. Intall zip from sdcard
3. Choose zip from sdcard
4. Choose the name of the zip file for your rom
5. Wait
6. Reboot
7. Wait again because it takes time.
8. See if it works.
This steps will only work work if your phone is rooted (of course it is because you have recovery), unlocked bootloader (if the rom requires it), flashed the correct kernel (again if the rom requires it)

I have tried this method with xrecovery aswell and still the problem persists, although the version is old it still should have worked. Any other ideas?

I did state that everything works on my phone perfectly so its clearly not the zips.

It could be a missmatch of cwm/xrecovery versions. An old cwm/xrecovery cannot install a 'new' cwm/xrecovery zip, neither can you really use a zip designed for cwm on xrecovery.
As said before, zips can also be corrupt for various reasons. They are big files and servers can stutter information or cause a few false bits here and there. Redownloading them can test that theory.

You should flash Tenfar's new CWM as the old one isn't compatible with 2.3.4. The one in the Rom Manager is incomplete and not recommended for us yet.
You have the link or version number?

You have unlocked the bootloader I suppose?
Only thing is I don't know how to get into /system/etc to find the install_recovery file. I got astro file manager and I don't think I can get into it

do i have to always use a cmd prompt on windows to load into CWM? cause when i reboot and do volume down key and pwr and do the android recovery i get the basic recovery not cwm. and if i use the rom manager it does the same.
hey everyone, i've got a big problem after using WB's 2.3.3 rom with hotfix v005, i can't turn into xrecovery or conenct to flashtool and reinstall it there does anyone know a solution?
Do you know how to get into xrecovery properly and do you know how to get into flash mode for flashtool properly? Tell me your steps and I will see if they match the proper ones.

getting in xrecovery:
reboot the phone and start pressing the back button at SE logo.
getting into flashtool:
just plug in the USB with debugging in on?

im too afraid to do that... my warranty has finished 2 weeks ago and if it wont connect to flashtool after flashing the stock rom then i won't be able to do anything
But if you install stock gb follow the guides in here you will be able to root and get recovery have you tried installing xrecovery.apk and try it that way

omfg.... did you atleast read any post? i don't need to flash anything... i need for flashtool to just detect my phone...
Or you can try this: after you have flashed a firmware on your phone, reinstall the drivers (SEUS and PC Companion) then reboot your computer. Once PC rebooted turn on USB debugging and Unknown Sources and open up flashtool, it should work.

Sent from my X10i using XDA App
too late ... but solution
download and paste spearately chargemon(file) and xrecovery(file). i think both are in tar format. they should have been installed with xrecovery. but, maybe u accidentally deleted them or corrupted them or 3rd-party-apps could have done the corruption. download and paste spearately chargemon(file) and xrecovery(file) to phone's memory (system/bin/PASTE HERE). if the one or more of the files i specified existed already, you should replace them with the downloaded ones as it is possible that they are corrupted.
THIS IS THE WAY TO GET xRECOVERY BACK coz u said u cant boot into recovery.
(NOT THE SOLUTION TO DRIVERS PROBLEM).

You have to put the update.zip on the root of your internal sd, which means NO folder.

if your s-on you forgot to take the boot.img from the rom and flash it via fastboot
Edit: Only use boot.img from the rom your gonna install....make sure you read proper method in first few posts from developer as there is instructions to make your phone work properly
Yes, you need to flash the boot image if you are S-ON...
But save the headaches and don't even bother flashing a ROM from your installed recovery (you really don't even need to install a custom recovery at all), all you need is the "recovery.img" from the recovery ZIP file of choice, although I currently recommend TWRP, in your adb directory and the ROM on your SD card then...
1) Reboot into Hboot and start Fastboot, connect PC
2) Type "fastboot boot recovery.img" and wait a minute for the Recovery to start on the phone
3) Wipe as per normal for installing a ROM
4) Install/Flash ROM zip as per normal
5) Reboot and enjoy!

It's worth going S-Off if you are going to flash very often at all... makes it so much easier to just flash one file and done.
It seems scary, but if you follow the instructions, it's not bad at all. I've done it twice now.
Also, you will have to flash a stock rom first (it's been done on other rom's, but ymmv... its safest to go stock before s-off).

You can do it from custom roms too, from what I've seen, but since you are stock, that is perfect
