Error installing custom rom TWRP and CWM - Samsung Galaxy Mega

Hei guys i've deodex my stock ROM through kitchen, but when i flash the zip file trough TWRP it say no MD5 found. I already check option and make sure no option checked about md5 verify. When i try flash again through cwm i got status 0. Anyone can help my problem
I am using 9152 btw.

I am no t sure on this as there is no TWRP for the mega 6.3..but is there not an option in TWRP to skip the md5 check..or maybe add the extension .md5 to the file and see if that will work.

I couldnt find any option to skip verify md5 in TWRP. Im using mega 5.8, and i got TWRP from goo manager. I'll try to add md5 extension, i'll give a report.

When i read the log TWRP is already skip the md5, sorry my bad. But the problem is 'error execute updater binary'.
In the other thread someone mention to delete assert in updater script, but still no go.

Did you mean the edify file? I make it and name it crater as the ro.product in build prop. For the mounted directory i took from recovery.fstab but til now my working progress rom is without kernel. I dont know why if i include the kernel it alway stuck in boot screen.

Problem could be on the edify since our crater device is still not officially supported on the kitchen. Would you mind sharing that file here?

Okay, this is my crater edify. But somehow it still doesnt work the kernel, so the solution remove boot.img from original_update folder before you set up working folder. Hope this help

i decided to make one rom my self, i setup the Kitchen enviroment, and extracted the official RUU follow the tutorial, everything goes fine.
until i copied it to my SD card and trying to flash, i will get the following messsage
assert failed: write_raw_image("tmp/boot.img","boot")

The same problem happened on the myTouch 4G but works with this:

Let us know if it works...
You can send the "update-script" to me,then let me give a look.

No .... that is wrong syntax. Won't even work in an update-script. For the Incredible S you need an updater-script (not update-script). Commands are followed by parentheses, with each parameter followed by a comma, and then a semi-colon at the very end. Run the kitchen on your ROM to get the proper syntax.
Anyways, nothing can be done at this point unless the original poster provides more detail, like at least posting his updater-script.
I'm no developer but I believe it should be write_raw_image BOOT:boot.img

That's correct syntax, but it doesn't work on newer htc devices because of the new filesystem formats. Boot.img has to be copied to /tmp folder before it can be flashed to device. You have to use updater-script to accomplish that.

Status 7 usually means you are using the wrong update-binary.

For us that know little can you elaborate and what that means exactly?
Per your previous answer I tried using an updater based on other devs work and I still get the same error on my g2.
I just wanted to add that I do run the error check and it says the update binary fine. No errors.

Update-binary is not the update-script.
The update-binary file is supposed to be included with the updater-script and contains all the command implementations that are used in the script... however there are three main types of update-binary and you have to know which one to include. They are mostly differentiated by the number of parameters supported for the 'mount' command for your updater-script.
All I the roms I have made have both the update and updater scripts included. That's why I'm stumped. I am using the leaked gb rom for g2. Oh well. Thank you for everything.
I'm gonna try to do and root the boot.img myself. Decompile and compile.

On your G2 you should have only an update-script in the ROM, or else the two other files (updater-script and update-binary), not both at the same time. The updater-script is a more advanced script than the update-script yet very similar.
The new versions of ClockworkMod only support the updater-script + update-binary however.

This is why the roms have both. I have not come across a single htc vision rom that only has an update-binary in it. They all have both

Update.
I just wanted to add that I have tried countless times to make a rom. I check that update script has no error and still I get the same error.
The weird thing is if I use a custom rom from one of the devs that does boot and I use the kitchen to go from edify to amend and then try to
convert it back later after I have made changes using the kitchen it wont boot and results in same write error.
Has anyone been able to make a bootable vision rom using the kitchen? If you have can you tell me where I can look or can you give me some answers. Yes I have checked google. No luck. Thanks
Im almost ready to give up.
I did make one rom that booted up and worked fine. Except when i went thru the steps to make the zip I removed the updater-script and update-binary created by the kitchen and replaced them with the udpater-script and update binary from one of the dev roms I use. This is the only way I have gotten a rom to flash and boot.
Just a thought. I know you said the htc vision is supported but would adding an edify_def for it help solve the problem?

CWM Error (Status 0) when flashing customized ROM

I have been cooking a customized ICS ROM using dsixda's kitchen and all I done was deodex the ROM and add some other stuff like bash, nano etc. I then built and signed it. When I attempt to flash it tells me there is an error in the .zip file and displays (status 0). I am guessing I have done something wrong when building the ROM in dsixda's kitchen.
Does anyone know what a status 0 error means in CWM and how I can fix it?

Status 0 means that you have a wrong script.Put a correct script in "/META-INF/com/google/android" floder in your rom.

I use dsxda and when i build the rom i use updater script, the ROM was coocked by 0, from system folder and boot.img, any solutions?
The update-binary for mtd type phones from dsixda kitchen no longer run on some new mtd phones. You may try to replace the update binary with other update binary and modify the scripts to mount using busybox and the format partition command should be removed and do the format from cwmr menu.
I´ve got update-binary, update-binary.orig, updater-script, updater-script.orig and update-script

Does Dsixda's ROM Kitchen work with Galaxy S3?

I've been wanting to try the kitchen out to see if I can try deodexing and zipaligning etc on the stock touchwiz ROM I'm running.
Do you think it would work? (despite it being discontinued)
yes it works still, works on ics & jellybean (i use it myself to deodex and zipalign)

Yes dxixda kitchen works but you will need to add another file with gs3 parameters in the edify_defs folder with name m0..still the updater-script does not work . It gives me errors in the installing boot.img stage.. . Anyways you can use the kitchen to create your rom and then package your rom manually using updater-script and update-binary from some other working rom.. Then sign it..
If you or anyone finds a solution to that problem do let us know..

Deodexing will work just fine..no probs..some times you might get an error with one or two apps..just use the option to deodex a single app and you will be good to go..
:good:
Edit:
Most important change the api level to 16 before deodexing..
just make a copy of your zipped rom, drop it into the working folder, deodex the files you want to and then pull those files out of the working folder and drop them into the original rom zip folder (minus the original odexed files)
no need to change anything, no need to drop new files in or mess with update script
as you will use your existing update script/meta inf folder blah blah blah, it means you can say yes to the mods the kitchen wants to make as you will only be taking the deodexed files from there, nothing else
(does that make sense? - im guessing you will ignore this anyway like my previous post))

My Answer is for kagouro - Becouse i Don't see your post when I write.
If Your Phone is dedected in adb you can use logcat (adb logcat in windows cmd) if phone don't dedected in adb - flash recovery via fastboot, join in recovery , instal working rom and found bad files in rom (try add modyfication singly - first root, second busybox etc - in this metod you can see whad mod don't work - probably stupid method but work :cyclops

Kitchen will replace certain necessary parts of your ROM if it isn't compatible with the kitchen, it puts them back when you compile. When you compiled your ROM did you take the guided option? Also, and probably the first thing I should have asked, is your phone compatible with kitchen?

OK, just for giggles try this, take the meta-inf folder from a rom you know works and using 7zip replace the one in your rom. Let me know if that helped at all:beer:

Ext3 is a mount point, I'm not sure what it would be specific to your device, but it tells me there's an error in your updater script

[Q] Aroma Installer

Hi guys,
I'm trying to set up Aroma Installer for my own Custom ROM. When I try to flash the ROM, it shows all but when i had nearly finished it let me choose Installation Demo and other options. This will flash the ROM or it will show me what will happen without flashing it?
If it is only a demostration, what I have to do to flash the ROM definetly?
Thank you!!!

By the looks of it, it's just a demo
To flash a ROM, go to its thread, download it(it won't be 5 mb, it would be probably bigger than 100 mb or around it) and follow the instructions on how to flash it.

How about posting your meta-inf folder here so someone can see where you went wrong as in its hard to give you an answer without more detail

I don't think that there is a problem in my meta-inf folder. I just ask what I have to do to skip the demo and flash the ROM.
Thank you for answering!

I don't want to flash other's ROM. I want to install Aroma for MY ROM so when someone try to flash my rom, he'll be able to choose what he want to install or not.
Thank you for answering!!

Then you need to modify Aroma-Config (Uses C as language) and updater-script to make the package behave as you want.
If you don't want options in Aroma, just a simple installer of ROM
Then, follow this guide

I have done all of this before but it continues taking me to the demo.
Here is my aroma-config and udapter-script files.
The reason the demo keeps playing is because you haven't set things up right, that's why I'm asking for your meta-inf folder and all its contents, if you would like to have aroma flash your ROM and not play a demo that is.... Choice is yours

Here is my meta-inf folder
Sorry, my phone is being a **** and won't let me extract .rar, can you either upload it as a .zip or you could use pastebin to post your updater-script and aroma-binary otherwise it will have to wait until I can get near a PC (few more hours)

No problem, just busy right now so sorry if it takes a bit to answer.
Right now all you did was swap updater scripts, you need to edit your aroma-config to have it select what you want.
If you need some help with it I'll be home in maybe 5hours and can lend a hand then, in the meantime take a look at some of my (or others) aroma packaged and see how they matched aromaconfigs to updater scripts

Thank you!!! It works!!!
Can you tell me how you did it?
Now, how I can put different options? For example, if someone installs my ROM I would like them to choose what kernel or app they want to install or not. How can I do that and where I must place the .apk files (for the apps) or the .zip files (for the kernels)?
Thank you again!!!
I'm seeing that the installer does not install the ROM, how I can do that?
@demkantor

all i did was fix aroma, you need to put the files in the proper place, as in open root folder, there should be two inside (more if needed for other purposes) meta-inf and system, put all rom info organized properly in system and then flash
you can always save aroma logs if you have questions
and yes i can help you add kernel choices and such but i need to know what all options you need or want

no comma after the 0
I have added the system and meta-inf folders and packed all of this as a .zip before. Do i have to modify any other aroma files?
Sorry for being so noob...

No need to apologize, we all learn new thongs every day!
You shouldn't have to edit any script, just take your system folder and meta-inf (and anything else needed) zip them up and sign, when you flash in aroma be sure to save logs so you can check it later for errors
