I am trying to install cyanogenmod togari (stable) on my xperia z ultra. But every time i failed. I tried this through twrp and cwm. But both are failed to install cyanogenmod on my xperia z ultra. I thought the downloaded zip file is corrupted, so i have download cyanogenmod togari stable, many times (minimum 5 times i downloaded the same zip file) but every time the cwm said
"E: Error in /data/media/0/Downloads/cm-10.2.0-togari.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted"
So...what i will do now?
My devices is Sony Xperia Z Ultra
Model number: C6806

Cannot understand! Please explain!
Open the zip and extract the file "boot.img". Flash it first. Reboot again in recovery, flash ROM. All done John.

This.
Remember to only open the zip , and not extract it. Then extract boot.img, or drag it out of the zip and flash it.

Nope, flash through fastboot mode. Copy .img file to fastboot folder and open cmd there, then type : fastboot flash boot boot.img ( boot.img is the name of .img file )
Kernel on the latest CM rom (137) is provided in .zip file. Remember that this kernel (boot.img) is flashed last, after wiping & installing Rom successfully

help? links would be best.
The boot.img from the latest stock rom? Can't you unzip the rom and get it or use flash gui?
can't use flash gui, phone is stuck at boot.
I'll try unzipping, thanks!
I'm not too familiar with ADB stuff but you might need to use that. There's guides for that in the dev section.
Extract the kernel from the Rom you flashed. Once you have the boot image, place it in you adb tools folder or SDK and connect to pc. Open the terminal and navigate to the folder and type fastboot flash boot boot.img
Well there ya go!
werd. Ok, I'm working on it. Thank you.
You misspelled word.

Hello,
I am a complete noob when it comes to dealing with phones.
I have a Sony Xperia Sola (firmware 6.1.1.B.1.54 ICS)
I downloaded Rom Manager via Play Store and want to flash a custom rom.
But whenever I try to select the option "Reboot and Install", only a normal boot happens.
How do I reboot and install the rom?? I have tried the button combos (power+volume - and volume +) but nothing works.
Please help!
PS
I am
-rooted
-bootloader unlocked
-clockworkmod recovery via recoverX
-rom is [ROM] Unoficial JellyBean stockrom 6.2.A.0.400 Sola
I understand that the rom you mentioned is recently ported and also deleted from development section of sola (munjeni rom).
According to his instruction, you need to do following thing:
Enter fastboot mode (off phone then hold volume up and plug cable)
Flash boot.img in zip Rom file to phone (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
Turn on phone and enter recovery menu (on phone then spam the volume down)
Do the clear data, cache... then install the zip file (rom)
Done.
Why was the rom deleted from the development section? Any clue? It was such an useful rom (using it myself)
And no, the original instruction only said to flash the zip file. Not fastboot the kernel before that. Fastbooting is only necessary I you get boot loops on normal flashing

I finally got into recovery mode, but when trying to flash the JB rom, it says something about a (Status 7 error) Flash aborted. how did you successfully flash yours?
First, you flash the stock ICS rom of sola. It will create the compatible partitions for JB in sola.
Second, you enter recovery mode and wipe all data, cache.... (maybe flash boot.img is required to entering this mode)
Finally, you install the zip file (rom).
Good luck.

I have flashed stock ICS, but even after I wiped/factoy reset, it still says Status 7 error
Maybe you should try to flash the boot.img in the zip file of munjeni before entering recovery mode and wipe all data, cache.

You flash in fastboot mode, or with recovery, but you must have unlocked bootloader, or it will brick your phone.
Hi guys.
I'm on JB STOCK, Stock recovery and Stock boot.
I want to create a backup of Stock recovery before i flash my TWRP-JB to take Stock NAND backup.
I searched and found a command to run recovery without flashing it to recovery partition.
fastboot boot recovery recovery.img <- my custom recovery. Then use either ADB or recovery itself to take a backup.
Will it work??

But the method that extracts kernel from partition and makes img file doesn't work also with recovery partition?
I mean the dd command from adb.

Good to know but not really needed. The stock Boot.img and Recovery.img come together with the OTA

The firmware zip in 405 OTA was not protected. It could be opened.

Bro, to take backup of the stock recovery.. u just booted the custom recovery using 'fastboot boot customrecovery.img' & took a nandroid? or any other command? specifically for backingup the stock recovery..?
That command boots the phone with the selected img , without actually flashing the img , by temporarely downloading the img into the phone memory and booting it from there .
This way , you could boot the phone into a custom recovery while having the stock recovery flashed , and then backup the unharmed stock recovery from that custom recovery .
TWRP can backup both the boot and the recovery partitions if I'm not mistaking . Just choose "Backup" and you'll be prompted with a list of partitions you can backup

Lots of info over here, to read for yourself. For a backup: install a recovery. After that: push the button 'backup'
Google just released the M preview for the Nexus 6 and I see some guys having some issues with flashing the preview, So what I did is just modify on the kernel not to encrypt the device during the first boot
and here is the simplest way to flash the preview
1-Download the preview factory image http://developer.android.com/preview/download.html
2-download this modified version of the stock M boot img https://goo.gl/SFWpMO
3-unpack the M preview .tgz file in your fastboot/adb folder and you will get the radio file and the bootloader file and the image-shamu-MPZ44Q.zip file
4-go to TWRP backup your ROM then wipe cache/dalvic/data/system ( watch out don't wipe the internal storage)
5-boot into bootloader and flash the bootloader : fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-shamu-moto-apq8084-71.11.img
6-fastboot reboot-bootloader
7-flash the radio file : fastboot flash radio radio-shamu-D4.01-9625-05.16+FSG-9625-02.94.img
8-fastboot reboot-bootloader
9-Unpack the image-shamu-MPZ44Q.zip file
10-you need just system.img from this file
11-flash the system : fastboot flash system system.img
12-flash the modified boot img that you downloaded in step 2 : fastboot flash boot boot-noencryption.img/B]
13-fastboot reboot
You also use NRT for flashing the M Preview if you prefer but flash the noencrption boot img instead of the stock img in order to avoid encrypting your device
It won't take time to boot but it's really important to wipe from twrp before flashing and as always try this on your own risk
Can't wait to flash thanks!!
