[HELP] Fix TWRP Error 255 - Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDA Members! I Have Developed A Custom ROM. I Have Create A updater-script. It Showing "Process Ended With Error:255". Here Is My updater-script.
Code:
ui_print(">>> ZenMod Xperia <<<");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
ui_print("Installing ZenMod");
ui_print("Please wait...");
show_progress(1.34,175);
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");
ui_print("Flashing Kernel...");
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot");
ui_print("Finished!");
show_progress(1.000000, 0);
Anybody Know How To Fix It?. If Anybody Know Please Help Me...

in recovery , that command row make the mistake ???
And where are the symlinks????

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system"); <- What's the purpose of "0" in here?
Everything else looks fine though.

Copy the logcat of TWRP and upload, so you could help more

lol why would he add symlinks and permissions uselessly?
and for the device prop it's a good practice to add it but not so necessary.
Updater-script can be shorter than this.

[Q] Can't flash Modded Update.zip

I modded a flashable zip and now it won't let me flash it.
When I try to flash I get
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(Status 6)
I have edited the update script, and don't know how to edit the update binary if that could be it. I am able to flash other zips though. I've tried removing things and adding things. The funny part is that another modded update zip I made a few days ago worked perfectly fine. Any ideas guys? What does Status 6 mean? Why does it give me the tmp/sideload/package.zip thing? Do I need to go back to factory (PLEASE SAY I DONT )
EDIT: I think it was just that zip.
According to AssassinsLament, the issue is probably your update-binary file (assuming you're already using edify: updater-script), which you can compile in AOSP or use the version AssassinsLament provides as the latest attached in his post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16409219&postcount=24
also, you can get a more detailed log in recovery, cat /tmp/recovery.log and pastebin that. with the more detailed recovery log, we will be able to determine more precisely the issue you're experiencing, but as a general solution, updating the update-binary file *should* work. if not, pastebin your /tmp/recovery.log.
hope that helps!

Thanks! That's exactly it!, I wasn't touching the update binary (i dont know how).
EDIT: So how exactly do I update the binary? Or do I just copy the one from assassinlaments post into the update zip.
What are you trying to flash?

Make sure you're not using Wordpad or anything like that to edit the updater-script. You need to use something that encodes the file with Unix encoding. Also, it shouldn't be the update-binary, you would get a sideload error. Check to make sure you're not missing a "," or ";" or little things like that somewhere. Also, if you open the file /cache/recovery/last_log when you reboot (or I think there is a /cache/recovery/recovery.log while you're in recovery [just cat that file]) it will tell you what the error is and the line location of any errors in your updater-script

A few things... you don't even have an updater-binary. You NEED to have that. For the updater-script, you have:
Code:
ui_print("SupraROM v1.2.1 Upgrade-Beta");
show_progress(0.1, 0);
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p23", "/system");
show_progress(0.2, 0);package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
show_progress(0.3, 0);
unmount("/system");
show_progress(0.4, 0);
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p23", "/system");
show_progress(0.5, 0);
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");
ui_print("Done Flashing");
You are mounting and unmounting twice and trying to extract the same package. Also, show progress is a pain in the ass and I doubt the way you have it shows a progress bar. Do it like this:
Code:
ui_print("SupraROM v1.2.1 Upgrade-Beta");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
ui_print("");
ui_print("Installing files...");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system");
ui_print("");
ui_print("Done!");
unmount("/system");
And add in this updater-binary...
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6621763/update-binary.zip
That should take care of it

Can't install own flashable .zip, what am I doing wrong?

Hi! I followed (step by step) this Guide to make a flashable zip of some wallpapers for my phones: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545165
But when I try to install it, CWM just says "installation aborted"...I was trying to make a .zip for some wallpapers but the folder name was too long (system/etc/customization/bla bla bla bla)and I tought to start by installing a small app (A QR code reader). This is my updater script:
ui_print(" QR droid ");
ui_print(" test zip ");
ui_print("cachanilla86");
mount("MTD", "system", "/system");
show_progress(0.100000, 40);
ui_print(" almost done ");
show_progress(0.100000, 40);
package_extract_dir("system", "/system/app");
unmount("/system/");
show_progress(1.000000, 10);
ui_print(" finished,now reboot ")
--BLANK LINE--
And in the main folder was "system/app" and inside of app the apk itself.
What's wrong here? I don't get it...its because i'm signing the zip with an older version of APK tool?
Thanks for reading.
just download sample.zip here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721680
and drag&drop your files in the zip to: example /system/etc/customization/blah3x..
Try this bro.
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "/system");
ui_print("Installing");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/lib/libgsl.so"); just an example
unmount("/system");
You're signing the zip? What for? It doesn't need to be signed, just have the right update-binary.
Thanks fellas, I'll try again tonight

If you are only using System apks, then there is a Play Store App for that.

Search it.

1. mount("MTD", "system", "/system"); is wrong for DX as DX is using EMMC instead of MTD
The correct one is mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p24", "/system");
2. You don't need mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p24", "/system"); when you have run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
3. There is no such thing as com.htc.resources.odex and framework-res.odex as there is no smali in these files
4. You don't need set_perm(0, 0, 0644, for system/app and system/framework
5. Why do you want to delete those odex files ? Most of the time, a stock odex ROM will not boot when you mix with deodexed files because the boothclass is broken

[HELP] updater-script error

Hello,
i have Alcatel Idol3 6045Y. Alcatel is owned by TCL which made a IDOL3 I806 for china. Hardware vise the devices looks identical. There ar ealso Us and other version 6045I and 6045O. The difference is maybe only the radio files.
SO i managed to get the i806 rom to work flawlesly on my 6045Y by only flashing system and persist from i806 and kernel from my 6045Y.
But for users with 6045I or 6045O they cannot flash the rom (af course with their kernel). they got this message.
HERE IS THE THREAD
i suggest there is something wrong in the mounting, but the script continues to flash the system. And also I would like to check all the symlinks on my computer, but dont know how because the symlinks are pointing to directories which are not present in the system folder in the zip file.
HERE IS THE ERROR MESSAGE
Code:
