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?

sammobile.com , you will have to register to download it...and you want the tar version. and make sure you check md5.

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!

Tried customizing a ROM the other day using dsixda's kitchen utility and after I built the ROM and signed it, I tried flashing. It would open the zip file no problem but after a few seconds while hanging on the installing update, it says error flashing update and there's a line stating "(status 0)". My guess is that I have done something wrong when customizing the ROM.
I have a Nexus S with CWM 5.0.2.3. Does anyone know what this error is and if possible help me solve it?
Thanks

I am on 2.3.4 Rooted and Made a Titanium Backup 4.8.2 update.zip and a TitaniumBackup-4.8.2.zip. Tried restoring from cwm (DroidX2 BootStrap) and it also fails with a Error In /sdcard/*.*.zip (STATUS 0). I chose to make seperate zips one to restore as a System app and the other as User app. I noticed the sign option was greyed out in titanium. I assume it is related with the dsixda's kitchen utility not being installed? It may possibly be due to a missing zip signer, which is doubtful I thought that no one could sign x2 zips?
So we are more or less in the same boat. When I searched for the error via google your post was the first link! If you have any update or suggestions please post back!
Hey everyone first post here at xda. I've been trolling around for a while and can usually find a solution around if I run into a problem. So first off here is the low down on my phone.
I'm running
hboot 1.19
radio 1.12.11.0809
twrp 2.3.3.0
S-on
I'm running cm10
Now the problem I'm having... I have decided to switch to Meanbean and have the ROM downloaded and put on my phone's storage waiting to be flashed. I've tried it a number of times while wiping different things. And every time I attempt it I receive the same error in the log "unable to open zip file".
I thought I may not have enabled debugging so i restored and made sure it was all enabled and tried again same error. I have reinstalled TWRP.
I also tried updating the htc software like mikey recommends in the Meanbean thread. However when I relocked my phone I was unable to get it to boot so that I could run the RUU.
I've tried everything that seems logical to me and I don't know what else I should do. I also don't know where else to look. I haven't been able to find anyone having this very problem.
So if anyone has a suggestion that would be great.
I'm open to try any solutions. I don't want to be stuck on cm10 for the rest of my days. Not that its a bad rom in any way.
It will be easier for you to go s-off...did you download via comp or phone?..are you running windows? And don't ruu if you're going to update, relock and take ota....beware, hboot 2.09 has been known to give fits
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Did you bother to check the md5sum? It could have been a bad download
It was a bad download. Had to learn how to check an md5. So thanks for that.
Couldn't even open the zip on my computer. Found the proper md5 value from android file host. Re-downloading now. Thanks a lot.
Ill take it from there.

Use twrp 2.3.1.0
You should really update your firmware also
Hello, All.
It seems I'm pretty close to bricking this thing so I thought I would ask you guys for help.
I'm not that experienced with this kind of stuff, but I was able to unlock my bootloader, and installed a custom recovery TWRP, using the Droid_Incredible_4G_LTE_All-In-One_Kit_v2.1 from hasoon2000,
It won't let me install a rom to the device. Been having some trouble with ADB as well. Seems like it won't recognize the phone when it's on the bootloader menu, but it will when it's in recovery mode. So using ADB i pushed a rom file to the device while in recovery and was able to get it on the sd card, but when I try to load the rom using TWRP it gives me an error msg. I thought that I might have to get rid of the old OS first before loading a new one so now I don't have an OS at all.
I feel like I'm missing something here, like I skipped a step or something... do i need to flash the kernel, or relock the bootloader? Confused as to why I can't load up a rom.
Thanks in advance for any help. Much appreciated.

before flashing a rom you should go into the wipe menu of twrp and wipe everything. Then install the rom zip. What error are you getting when try to flash the rom?
Sorry for the late response. I guess I don't really check my email without a smartphone.
Ok so in TWRP I go into wipe, and do Cache - Successful! Davik Cache - Successful! System: Successful! Factory Reset - Failed (and in the list it says:
updating partition detail...
unable to mount '/sdcard' a buncha times.
Then if i try to install a rom from the sd card it says
Failed
Installing 'external_sd/rom.zip'...
checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
assert failed: write_raw_image('tmp/boot.img". "boot"
E:Error in /external_sd/rom.zip
)Status 7)
Error flashing zip 'external_sd/rom.zip'
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/sdcard'
E:Unable to mount '/sdcard'
I guess what makes no sense to me is that it can't mount the sd card. Does it need to be on the internal "sdcard" instead of the mini sd I have the file on? IDK so confused...
Thanks for you help.

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:

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.

Hello everbody!
At first, my English isn't very well, so sorry for that.
My Problem:
I wanted to install CM 11 on my Ace I (GT-S5830i), but this extremly failed. To keep it short, i haven't any OS on my device now, but I can enter the CWM (version 6.0.1.2)
What I have done:
Install CWM
wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition (but in the Stock recovery)
format /system (in CWM)
Now I get the error message:
E: can't mount Cache/recovery/log
I tried to install CM 11 (for the Ace I (GT-S5830i) for sure)
Install zip from sdcard
but I get these Messages:
Opening update package...
Installing update...
This package is for "cooperve.GT-S5830i, gt-5830i devices; this is a "".
E:Error in /sdcard/cm-11...

E: can't mount Cache/recovery/log
E: can't open Cache/recovery/log

I was so silly and didn't make a backup.
When I try to start the device, only the gt-5830i-Logo appears, of course, ther is no OS installed.
So what can I do? Is there any chance to install an OS?
I also tried to install the Stock Firmware with Odin; result failed.
Thanks!
Edit:
Odin works, now I have the Stock Firmware, but I can't flash CM 11;

This error is not serious, it just means, that it cannot create log files, because of the missing cache partition.
I also got this error when using the "on-the-fly" CWM.
If you install a ROM (which has a kernel), then CWM gets installed to the recovery/kernel partition, then you have a "rock stable" CWM.
Hopefully without errors. But for now, you can just ignore this error.

On some devices the device info in the properties is empty, and therefore the updater-script thinks, the device is not supported.
If you know exactly that your device is supported, you can delete the first lines of the updater-script.
Steps
Open the *.zip with WinRAR or similar
Go to META-INF\com\google\android
Extract the updater-script (Drag & Drop), don't close WinRAR
Open the updater-script with your favorite text editor (i.e. notepad++)
Delete the first lines containing "assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "your_device" || getprop(...) == "...");"
This line can be on multiple lines, so be sure to delete the complete "assert" statement
Drag & Drop the modified updater-script into WinRAR (same folder as before)
Optionally sign the *.zip
Install it with CWM
Be sure what you are doing (at your own risk)
If it worked, feel free to hit Thanks :victory:
Thank you for your efforts, I really appreciate it, but I solved the Problem.
As I said, now I have the Sotck Firmware (thanks Odin ^^).
I flashed CWM again with Odin, and tada, I could install CM 11, without any Problems.

Yeah, flashing the CWM with Odin is another great solution.
Then you have a working CWM out of the box, and the device properties are setted correctly.
I'm glad it's working now
