ive noticed that when these kind of problems occur, even hard reset doesnt help much. Only thing that is is to flash the original software, or at least LEWA ports, as these are changing and reverting root files back to working state. so i suggest you download these:

http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/2599568/1.0.10.part2.rar
extract, and flash it trough SP flash software, if you dont know exact procedure, well google it out, these things are the same regarding to mt6575 series of chips.
Best of luck

I am trying to root my phone and update it with the Modaco rom, but I seem to have a problem doing that as I have this Asian rom which does not have any marketplace nor does it have any file manager to access my SD card. I have downloaded the flash recovery file and the recovery image file on my SD card to start the rooting process but cannot access those files until I have a file manager on my phone.
Please, if anyone could give me an idea on how to do that, I will greatly appreciate that.
Thanks.
Look for android application installer .bat. It is slow but does the job. It is for pc and install your files from there.
Hey everybody,
I apologize in advance if this post is a duplicate but I have tried searching for a solution and still lost. Here is what I did: I used the Odin to restore stock rom, then re-rooted using the one click method, then downloaded a rom from theunlockr.com, then used rommanger to install it. My rom has gave me no problems but now when I try to reboot into recovery to install something else(Like the 2.3 keyboard or a lagfix) i get this error:
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(No such file or directory)
Installation aborted
Can someone please help me? Thank you, BTW I have a Samsung Vibrant running axura-froyo-rom
I had the same problem too.
When I put update.zip at the root directory of internal memory... once I restart the phone (not get into the recovery mode), this file is missing / dissapear. So... I always got this message too :
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(No such file or directory)
Installation aborted
anybody can help us pleaseeeeee
I got my phone to factory settings using odin then i rerooted my phone and flashed the same custom rom back on and it worked. Try reflashing your phone, backup first, might work.

thanks for reply.
how to use factory setting using odin ? tick the "re-partition" box ?
can you explain to us step by step please ?
I'm so frustated
Did you guys delete the update.zip after rooting?
If you do not see
sdcard/update.zip using a file manager, download the update.zip from my noob guide, move it to internal memory and then try to flash CWR.
Also, look in the bottom of the noob guide (last few posts) for a solution to a RECENT issue with CWR... I assume whatever Koush did in the last update is causing this problem? BUT, there is a fix posted by another XDA user... just a matte of downloading the file and putting it in the right place.

listen to s15's post....he knows what he is talking about. i followed his noob guide in his sticky and everythign worked perfectly! his vids are also very helpful. one thing i have found that works a lot as well is if you download ROM Manager from the market and then click on "fix permissions"... don't know if this would help in this situation but i have had that fix weird stuff.

yeah this, the update.zip is ESSENTIAL for your phone to run the clockwork recovery, it stores all the things needed, and when you click "reinstall packages" your system goes in update.zip and looks for what to boot up and finds CWR and boots that so you see that screen.
Don't delete it if you did.
i have tried numerous times to root,but cant seem to get update.zip file in right place,can anyone help? thanks. challenged noob!!

When you usb into your phone it needs to be in the initial area of your sdcard.
You might have a bad update.zip file. Two things, verify the md5(if possible) from where you got it and check the properties and make sure it's not names update.zip.zip. The later is very common.
Try this method too btw, when I Odin back to stock I always use this one to root again. Follow the 'Automated Method' area.

you will need these drivers AND set your phone to debugging mode (settings/applications/development check USB debugging).

hey all,
Newbie here trying to flash a ROM, i am running into this same error, i have tried everything here and i have one question (might be a stupid question) but my root sd folder is called SD/, not SDCard/ ...is this a path error?
Please note it file must be in the internal card, not the SD card.
This step drove me nuts.
"2. Copy the update.zip (and the ROM) to the INTERNAL SD (not the external SD Card). sdcard/ " (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732458)
i ran into the same problem...how do i get from 3e to CWR?
here's what's shown in my vibrant directory: Android, DCIM, external_sd, LOST.DIR
i dont have an internal sd (the card) so it's not shown?
the path i got error on: /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip
1. when i tried to "reinstall packages" i keep getting the error that the update.zip file cant be found. should i create a folder for it or something? i think it's a matter of pathing but i cant find out the right place to put the file...(to get from 3e to CWR)
2. i see people suggesting boot with odin or sth like that...does that solve my problem and how do i do that?

You definitely have an internal sd card. Use Astro file manager or something similar and put update.zip on the root of internal sd card, meaning not in a folder. It should look like sdcard/update.zip. If you are having the 3e mismatch recovery issue read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423

i go to the link that you linked and ran the script. then i download the update.zip file at the noob guide with a slimbean 4.2.2 rom and addons. this time i would just put it in the root folder (technically not in any folder). when i try to reinstall packages, the screen shows that it is "replacing stock recovery with clock work recovery"... but then it would go back to the 3e.
so...i guess putting the files in the root folder is correct. but someone it still wont let me get tot CWR...

You have to reinstall packages twice for it to work properly. It is normal to not work the first time, just reinstall packages again and you should be good to go. If you keep having issues you should just flash back to stock 2.1 with Odin and go from there.

Please help me!
Hi everyone! Recently I got this Thosiba tg01 and wanted to change from wm6.5 to 7 or to some cooked rom.
What I tried:
SDDL method: SD Downloading Failed - File Open Error
Pin method: Same error.
Tried 4 roms, all gave me the same error.
Is there a way to flash rom from pc or from the phone itself. Please help me I just can't stand WM6,5. If not, i'll sell my device.
Half a year on I still get the same problem,can't seem to find a solution
Seems like I will never get a solution then
the sd card must be formated and must contain Only "PRG" folder, inside folder put sddl and .bin file 0321 version !
Hello there,
Just to clarify:
- the uSD Card must be formatted.
- sddl+.exe must be in the ROOT of the card.
- the TGO01xxxx.tsw ROM image file must be in the \prg folder.
- execute sddl+.exe from file explorer and it will then flash the ROM.
Hope that helps It's actually very straightforward and reliable.
The 'short pin' method is primarily used if you happen to have a 'half-bricked' device and are unable to boot to start with.
Regards,
Kevin
Hey!
A friend of mine has this new tablet - Coby Kyros Mid1060 - and ask me to install Gapps and what was missing...
The thing is... I accidentally renamed the 'boot proper' file original without copying the new one...
So, as you can imagine, i can't boot the tablet, it stucks on 'android' logo...
I've been searching for different ways to reach the file but i can't...
Before doing that renaming operation i managed to root the device and i can get to the recovery menu...
Is there a way to fix this problem?
I appreciate all your advices.
Thank you.
Same Problem
I'm having a very similar problem with that device.
I've deleted the build.prop file while trying to rename it.
Could anyone send me a copy of that file? I'm trying to replace it with an update.zip

Hello.
I'm having the same problem ... Already have some solution?
This worked for me
I made the update.zip file that you could find in attach.
It replaces a build.prop file that will allow a factory reset.
The device will reboot again.
1. copy the file to an microSD
2. plug the microSD in the tablet
3. turn the device on in recovery mode ("volume down" and "on" )
4. select "apply update from sdcard"
5. select the "update-signed.zip" file
6. reboot you device
hope this helps
If you are stuck on the bootlogo, you can always edit/add/replace files in your device. No need for flashable zips.

I don't know... Don't have it..., but I can tell you that the USB debugging was disabled.
android commander is not an app its a windows program. Try connectingyour device to your PC and check android commander. If you have an insecure kernel , you can access the root of your device and make any changes you want.

nevertheless what I did worked for me and is a practical way for people with less skills or knowledge to solve their problem.
With that in mind I posted it.
I tried lots of thins, including connecting the computer to the tablet... nothing worked, but this did. My tablet is working now.
Original rom?
Hi there, is this the original rom file for the MID1060? My tablet is having some problems with the positioning sensor and i need to send it back to warranty, but i've modified it so it can have googleappz on it and i can't restore. Do you think that wth this i can solve it?

Why .... error ?
Seems like permissions problem. Try going to recovery and go to advanced, then select fix permissions. If that doesn't work, modify the permissions via a file manager and make sure read and write is enabled for the sd cards. Please ensure that storage (or phone) encryption is disabled.
