Hi, I was trying to Install XperiaSTE Build 9 Android 4.4.3 CM11 Nightlies in my device. Before I start, I took a CWM Backup from ICS 4.0.4. After the rom zip downloaded, I extracted the boot.img from the zip, Then copied the rom zip to a folder inside my sdcard/internal. After I fastbooted the boot.img and unpluged the device, I just ran the CWM in device. It was not working cause my zip is probably broken. error is:
E:Can't open /storage/sdcard0/Downloads/cm-11-20140608-UNOFFICIAL.zip (bad)
Installation aborted.
I tried to restore my backup, But on restoring system it just says:
Error while restoring /system!
I've tried fastbooting ICS Default kernel for XU, but it just get's stuck in Sony boot loader logo.
I've also tried CWM adb sideload, It just errors: Device not found. Is there any way I can push a re-downloaded zip to my device? I have 80mb free space, If there's also any way I can delete the old broken ROM It would be awesome
Please help
Thanks!

I'd go for a ftf file with a stock ICS again and flash it through flashtool (flash mode).
You know, just to get the device running properly and then push your custom rom again.
Just flash the kernel that you have at the beginning or a kernel with cwm

Hi all, I actually own a H7300 (Hero) android phone version 2.3.5 dual sim etcetera.
I really just wanted root access to use Titanium Backup but Gingerbreak 1.2 SuperOneClick 2.3.3 wouldn’t give it to me.
So I read avidly all the information I could find “Bruno Martin” “Bunta” and downloaded all I could
In the way of ROMS SPFlashTool and I finally work up the courage to try flashing the recovery ROM
Using the scatter text file found it the SPFalshTool and a recovery ROM image from Bunta V6 (not in Version 8?)
Well the Flashing worked and I booted in recovery mode this time I had to hold the volume down button not volume up as with the original recovery image got into CMW (ClockWorkMod) version 5.0.2.8 and scrolled to apply update from SD card (I prepared this earlier) and this is what I get
E:Can’t mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can’t open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can’t find misc
And a lot more lines pertaining to the same.
I looked this up by Googling and didn’t really find a solution just a mention of the Android Police!
I note that neither Bruno nor Bunta actually own a phone like this but have cooked these roms because they can.
If anyone has actually succeeded in getting any of these Roms to work in the 2.3.5 version of the H7300 please please let me into the secret!
custom recovery in H7300 with android 2.3.5
If anyone has actually succeeded in getting any of these Roms to work in the 2.3.5 version of the H7300 please please let me into the secret![/QUOTE]
Bruno Martins has an adapted custom recovery for this phone. Seems that hardware changed in the newest H7300.
The one I own is from May 2012 and also works only with the new recovery, I had the same problem and messages as you with the first custom recovery.
You need also a new boot.img file to copy into the update zip with new rom, or copy the Boot.img from your now working into the update.zip, with
the boot.img your phone isn't able to boot normally.

Hi Robbel, I actually got a response from Bunta and he suggested what you also have suggested this was the result
I did what you said got the new recovery image and installed it with SP flash tool I also replaced the boot image in your V6 by decompressing both your v8 and the new boot.img replacing it in the decompressed file then zipped it as update.zip to my SD card I ran CWM and this time the backup was successful (no mention of cache)
When I tried to install your ROM this is the message I got
--installing: /sdcard/update.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...

Installation aborted.
I also tried V3.3 mod from BM and got the same message

you need to use an older CWM recovery, or change to the Venom/Viper TWRP

Try flash boot.img n recovery 2.2.1 via venom flasher .
Full wipe.
I solved with install rom using sideload - viperX+_2.0.1 [full rom download]. Try to not pause u downloading, it will be corrupt you zip
Reboot system, may take around 10 minute
Then on your phone check debug n power / fastboot unthick.
download elitekernel [new] or speedy kernel
Flash kernel via fastboot
Reboot phone and update via OTA
try to redownload the Viper 2.1.0 and flash these or check your md5. There are some bugs with the full ROM of Viper 2.1.1
Hey guys, i've tried installing the unofficial cyanogenmod 11 for xperia E following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...iro-tipo-edevelopment-cyanogenmod-11-t2699996
I've downloaded the zip file and the gapps, but when I flashed the kernel "boot.img" from the zip file, I've tried rebooting my phone and then it blocks to "FreeXperia", sometimes it makes me even go into the recovery mode but when i try to install the zip it says that he couldn't recognize or something similar, sometimes when it makes me go into the recovery it reboots after a while...
How can I install the previous firmware (11.3.A.2.33) ?
Hi all,
I've got a P7500 running CM 10.1. A while back it rebooted after Chrome froze and ended up stuck in bootloop. I've had that happen before so I figured I'd just install the ROM from zip again. I don't remember all the things I tried to get the tablet to work again so long story short here's the situation now:
- I currently have no ROM installed
- I run TWRP 2.7.1.0
- I am able to flash
- I have a CM10.1 nightly on /sdcard
- I cannot enter fastboot mode (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/twrp-wiped-device-o-errors-t2444927 looked promising ...)
Now, when I try to install the ROM from zip I get errors along the lines of:
E:error: Not a directory
E:error opening '/data/data/org/mozilla.firefox/files/mozilla/338zfnx2.default/Cache/B/02'
E:error: I/O error
E:unable to open zip file.
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/cm-10.1-20140112-NIGHTLY-p4.zip'
Updating partition details...
E:error opening '/data/data/com.google.adnroid.gms/cache/logs/com.google.android.gm'
E:error: Not a directory
and so on.
I'm also unable to sideload the stock ROM. The log says that it's unable to access /sdcard. I also can't mount /sdcard through sideload.
Any ideas? I'm going crazy. I've spent a few weekends on this so far with no results and really, really need my tablet back. :'(

Hi, thanks for the response. I had been thinking along these lines but was unable to find a flashable stock ROM. I have it as zip but not as MD5. Do you happen to have a link to one?

Hey, I managed to get back into the device. Two important things here:
1) The TAR can be extracted to provide a flashable MD5 file
2) I had downloaded the ROM for Germany. I forgot that the Tablet was purchased in the Netherlands though. When I flashed the German ROM it said something about CSC and PHN. PHN was the code for the Netherlands. I downloaded that ROM and flashed it successfully.
Lots of time invested, lots learned. Thanks!
