Running into weird problems, help - HTC Droid DNA

While trying to install a rom onto my phone in clockwork mod 6.0.3.1 it doesnt work. I get this error
Set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /tmp/update.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted
Any ideas? Earlier I had a problem where I had to clear recovery cache in order to get in, im not sure if that has anything to do with it.

You need a different recovery! the link is in the second post of the thread you opened to get the download. Also there are more instructions to follow!

What do you mean by System Update? What are you on now? Are you trying to flash a ROM? Going to /Downloads and flashing OTA sharp shooter; not sure what you mean by this at all......

A HTC OTA update cannot be flashed using a custom recovery, that is why you are getting the second error. Also a OTA will fail when HBoot attempts to run it when you have a custom recovery installed, that is probably the source of. First error.
Bottom line is that an OTA cannot be installed when you have a custom recovery, so just fine a custom, rooted Rom that is based on the OTA and flash that instead.
all you gotta do is go to recovery try to install it when you get the error pull the battery and go back into recovery from bootloader
Thanks i would make you kool-aid but im fresh out... and that didnt work either

Yea i think your right... O well
Hey guys,
I had a similar problem when trying to flash my Nexus s with CyberGR mod.
Tried pretty much everything from trying to wipe system/dalvik/cache/factory reset and also disabled signature check.
Nothing really happened, i kept getting the error again.
Then i had flashed the recovery image (had a TWRP 2.0 running... changed it to CWM) and then the flash went on just fine.
So my guess is that this something to do with the recovery ROM. I would want to ensure that the recovery image used by the dev and mentioned in the install instructions be used.
Hope this helps.
I just reboot recovery and that fixes it when that happens. Have you tried that? No need for battery pull imo

you have two options...one is redownload the zip file from a different site or open up the one you have and manually delete that zip file from there and it should bypass and continue on... what it ma do to the rom is on you ... if you extract the package.zip and then open it youll see what files the zip contains...if it contains no files it is likely corrupt and need to download a new rom...what site did you download the ROM from and are you a cdma or gsm model phone?
see im having the same problem i tried the [Cool Sense] Rom and the ZR3D-XL SENSE Rom and TeamGenesisRom3d and it all gave me the Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (status 0) so i had to install my old rom back MikVirgin Rom. Can it be because im still using twrp recovery and not 4EXT Recovery Control

I've noticed all the people who get that error are using twrp. So I recommend using 4ext.

[Q] Pure AOSP 4.4 installing error..

Hi People
Of some reason I can't install AOSP 4.4 on my HTC One X+. Here's what I've done.
Restarted to factory settings and wiped everything.
Sended the AOSP 4.4 zip via adb sideload
Flashed the boot.img
But I'm still getting this error when I'm trying to install it:
Installing '/sdcard/sideload.zip'...
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.

Anyone got an idea of what I've forgotten to do, or what I do wrong?

SuperUser is installed. Busybox... I have no idea what it is, but its probally that. I'll just have a look at it.
Hm... I see how I install it from Google Play. But isn't it possible from a zip file or..? Since I dont have any rom currently.

i say in the thread you NEED a different recovery which just so happens, to be in the download bit where you get the rom
Ah.. Sorry. I missed that.
I really can't find the section for HTC One X+. Are there even a version for this? I need the update.zip file, since as I said, I don't have any rom currently.
again ALL the DOWNLOADS for 4.4 are in the 4.4 downloads tab. you NEED to update recovery and re-sideload the rom.
though to be honest, i highly doubt 4.4 is for you. as it's VERY unstable
I understand. But I'll give it a try.
Now you're probably still saying that I shouldn't get that ROM, but its pretty important for me.
However, I installed the Google Apps zip thingy successfully. And I rebooted my phone into recovery again. But it was still in TW. I tried to reflash the boot.img and install the zip but it was still not working.
I got ClockworkMod Recovery installed, but it doesn't seem to be able to install it.

Make sure u are using the latest version of cmw... Most of the status 7 fails have to do with this.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I am using the most updated... and tried with other recoveries but no sign of progress. And I have read some threads with some possible solutions but still stuck... :/
