There is an error in the script-file pointing to the folders where the various tools and files should be found. Find the directory-structure where you unpacked the files and check if the paths in the script match the directory-structure
First it can't find the exploit 'rageagainstthecage' in the files folder (cannot stat /files/rageagainstthecage, which means it cannot get proper permissions to do the other steps (Mount system R/W, mount: Operation not permitted)
And on top of that it can't find the files that are needed for CWM (files/recovery.tar, chargemon and busybox)
so put those four files in a 'files' folder in the directory where you run the command from, or edit the script file to point to the directory where those tools actually are.
If you provide the link to where you downloaded the tool from, i will inform them of the error too so they can fix it
thanks for your answer but i have found the problem,
the script was alright but I opened it as administrator, but when I open it as normal user it works
thx anyway

The Tutorial is for MIUI 2.2 so why you use it on CM 7 (2.3)?

Sense! Its probably not going to boot with that tutorial. Better to try with an AOSP build.

i get
e:cant symlink /system/bin/reboot
e:failure at line 29:
symlink toolbox system:bin/reboot
i checked the files and the reboot file is in the bin folder

well then u have to manually check every file of the update.zip in /system/bin & /system/xbin to verify that there are no files with same name as the new symbolic links that are being created...
View attachment META-INF.rar
here is one to compare and remember to use notepad++ to edit, not regular notepad
if you get a can't symlink error
that means the file is still in the folder
when that happens you can do one of two things.. on delete the line from update script
or two... the one I prefer... delete the file from the actuall rom folder
ex.. cannot symlink ifconfig
I would go to bin and delete ifconfig
another tip is once the rom starts installing you will want to install another rom that is working... the farther you get in the installation the better the chances are you messed up it going into recovery... then you can be sure that after the error you reboot into recovery.. this has saved me many times of having to reflash the whole bb with flashtool wich takes a lot longer than a recovery restore
Hello everyone,
I pasted a custom rom (Trickdroid zip) file in sdcard of my HTC one, but when i go to recovery mode to locate and install the rom, i don't find it?
I search every file in sdcard while in recovery mode, still not found.
Although i can still see the zip file when connected to computer
What seems to be the problem?
I hope i can find an answer here
Try pasting it in the 0 sub directory on your sdcard

Hi,
I tried to edit the file "state" in "/sys/devices/virtual/switch/hdmi/" to unlock HDMI checking according to some internet posts I found. The problem is that it won't let me edit the file. I used Root explorer. My phone is rooted.
I also tried using Terminal emulator + Busybox to directly edit the file but it still didn't work. The file can be copied to other directory, and the copied file in the new directory can be edited, but the original file cannot be deleted or edited. When I tried to delete it, the message showed "Operation not permitted".
Any idea? Do I have to use "mount" command ? If so, please suggest. I am new to android and linux.

easy bro. status 7 error is just a small thing.
to install manally: extract the file(s) from the zip & simply push it to the same folders as they was in the zip.file
example a init.d script is in system/etc/init.d IN THE ROM, AND THE zip-flash-file... so push it there & set permissions & done

i was confused because of META_INF folder, then i read a bit more about it and i learned that META-INF is used only for zip data and i shouldn't copy it anywhere.
i will try it and report when i will have access to a notebook, so that i can repartiton sd card.

Hi I'm a newbie, please guide me how to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Hey!
I have some questions. With Android L arrived the custom ROMs with files packed into image files (like system.img). And I saw that cm12(just an example) doesn't need anymore to set permissions and create symlinks because they are already stored inside the image file.
And my question is: how can I store the system files into a image file with all symlinks created and permissions set? And also which files require symlinks and what permission should be set for folders/files ?..and into a image files, where are stored the symlinks?
I'm using Windows 7 and I want to make a custom ROM based on stock LG G2 firmware.
I have other ROM's as reference(with system packed into an image file, and with system unpacked) and I can look inside them to see which files needs symlinks..but my main question is, why these files need symlinks?
Thanks!
My two cents :
Cmd to find symlinks (in term emulator, you can remove the end of the cmd if you just want to see the result in the terminal instead of creating a file fic.txt)
ls -lR /system | grep ^l | grep " -> " > fic.txt
Note : in cloudyfa's rom you can see symlinks in updater script (same as stock + busybox)

Thanks for help ..I understand better now..I searched more and the system.img is the stock image from kdz(I think).. and it contains the necessary symlinks and permissions.

Try running that command and see the output. It's been a long time, I don't quite remember right now. Try looking into cloudyfa's ROM zip, it might help
