I have loaded the zip file CM10-Nightly-mb520 dated 20120730 onto the sd card, placed it into the Bravo and selected 'apply sdcard:update.zip. I get the following:
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/caller
..
Install from sdcard...
...finding update package...
...opening update package...
.verifying update package...
..E: failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (not such file or directory)
.E: signature verification failed
....installation aborted
What am I doing wrong?
you must select install zip from sdcard, not flash update.zip.
How do I install SD card versus flash update? Do I boot phone as normal and then run the instal from zip?

Ok first stop what your doing and put your phone down before you brick it. If you dont know what your doing at this point then you need to spend a few days reading up on just what you are trying to do. Until then dont try to flash anything to your phone.
Ok, thanks. Would you mind giving me a bit of guidance? I'm trying to upgrade the Android version on the Bravo. Is there a version that you would recommend? I appreciate any help you offer for this rookie!
2nd init defy
you'll need to download 2nd init defy to your memory card then install that on your phone. then shut off your phone. turn it on back and when you see the led light turn blue you press the volume down button. use your volume down button to go on backup and recovery. press the power buttopn to select then select custom recovery. You are now in recovery mode. Here, your touchscreen doesn't work so you use your voulume up and down buttons to move and your power buttons to select

hi,
i managed to create the gold card, root my htc hero and install modaco's rom but i selected the one with chinese input but it is not the chinese input which i wanted,
i tried to put the modaco rom in my sd card and rename it as update,
then boot into recovery mode, and when i click apply update.zip,
error message pop up then there is the ( bad )
it was able to open and extract then the 3rd line, it stopped,
i tried another sd card, but still get the same error message,
can anyone advise what i should do ?
i tried to wipe but still cannot,
please help
i tried to go to settings, then sd card unmount, and tried to format it, no response,
when i tried to apply update.zip
message show :
install from sdcard
finding update package
opening update package
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip (bad)

try re-downloading it, might just be a corrupt zip also avoid multi segment download management if downloading zips.
thanks,
i noticed that the file was only 3mb, i downloaded last night and re-installed it and it works,
sorry for causing inconvenience to all

E:failed to open /mt/internal_sd/update.zip (such file or directory)
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted

get the update.zip from there ??
either get rom manager and flash clockwork then go to recovery and reinstall packages twice or get the update.zip from the link above and reinstall packages twice and that'll take you to clockwork recovery
you sound like you have stock froyo - which means you have the 3E stock recovery.
I suggest following my guide (signature - noobs).
EDIT - ha, just realize Kyle already linked to it, thanks man.
So, i am trying to load this new ROM (the Vicious rom). I go into clockwork recovery & select install zip from sdcard, then i choose zip from sdcard, & instead of loading the new rom it says: Finding Update package, opening update package, installing update package, then it is complete....how do i get it to load the rom?
additional info:
I cannot install any ROM now, it runs through this short update process I explained above. Am I missing something that allows the rom to be loaded?
That's how roms are installed. Did you reboot after you installed the rom?
i had issues with clockwork so i used team win recovery here-- http://www.mediafire.com/?ye85b3n1f72nen3
Maybe try this one and see if it helps just put on root of sd card
make sure it is named PG05IMG.ZIP go into the bootloader
by shutting down phone rstarting by holding down volume arrow then power till it comes up in bootloader and do the update

Either you are choosing apply sdcard:update.zip accidentially instead of "install zip from sdcard" or you still have a PG05IMG on your sdcard? If you still have that img on your card, you will have to hook your phone up to your computer > boot into recovery > mounts and storage > mount sdcard > enable usb and find that IMG and delete it. Then go back do your wipes, and install zip from sdcard.
Try redownloading the ROM in case it may have been corrupted during the original download.
Hey all, I posted this on CM's forums as well but haven't gotten any replies so I figured I'll try this forum as well. I'm a new to mod installations so forgive if some of these questions are redundant/plain stupid. I figure it's better to ask a stupid question though, than to brick my phone.
Anyways, here goes:
So I have installed ClockworkMod (free) and created a recovery.
I copied a stable version of CM into my root folder (update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxyS2-signed.zip)
Now to install it do I go into ROM Manager, and under ROM Management select "Install ROM from SD Card"? Then check off the 3 options and hit ok, and reboot into recovery on the next popup window?
Finally...when the phone reboots into "Android System Recovery"..I see this:
Android system recovery <3e>
Enter: OK Key, Select: VOL UP/DOWN
reboot system now
apply update from sd card
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
-- Installing package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature...
E:signature verification failed...
Installation aborted.

So do I go into "apply update from sd card" and select the CM zip file?? And after that I see there's mention of another zip file simply labelled "update.zip"...its also in my root. So I use that AFTER CM.zip right?
And finally...whats up with the errors there while installing the package? Is that ok?
Thanks! And sorry if this is the wrong forum. I didn't spot a specific mod-related forum here.

Use this link here, i think your problem is you afe flashing with rom manager you should use CWM for a first time install and you need to flash twice back to back to ensure a clean install.
