Hello,
When flashing roms I get 2 red lines of text that read "Error: Unknown command".
I am using the latest version of Squid Recovery.
I appreciate you for your help, thank you.
Here is my log file, sorry in advanced I don't know how to upload it directly to this post.
It's on paste bin /GJc0y0Ln
This is normal if the ROm start... And you are trying flash a nougat rom

I would be grateful of some help. I have successfully unlocked the Bootloader, flashed a custom kernel and rooted my Xperia Z Ultra on 4.4.2.
The problem I have is when trying to flash CM11 nightly using TWRP and CWM Recovery. I carry out the wipes in TWRP, then proceed to select the CM11 latest nightly to flash. On swiping the bar to begin the flash, the process fails and the following message displays:
"E: Unknown File System: 'datamedia'
Updating partition details...
Running book script...
Finished running boot script.
Installing '/external_sd/Xperia Root/CM11/cm-11
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
This package is for "C6802, C6806, C6833, C6843 to
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/exter
Error flashing zip /external_sd/Xperia Root/CM
Updating partition details...

(I think some of the text to the right of the window has been cut off)
When I Power Off my device in TWRP a message displays saying I don't have root, do I wish to install supersu. I went with this message and assume supersu installed when I powered off. However, on powering back on and re-entering TWRP and trying again, I am still unable to flash my CM11 zip.
I have also re-downloaded the CM11 zip, all to no avail.
To confirm, I can access TWRP and CWM, but can't install my CM11 nightly zip. I have tried installing from the internal SD to no avail.

Flash the boot.img from the ROM zip using flashtool and put the phone into fastboot mode. Hold the vol up key when connecting the ZU to the PC (phone powered off of cause) and select fastboot mode in flashtool flashing dialog. you will have to change to .img from .sin in the file open box
Thank you so much for the reply and support. I'm new to the ZU coming from a Samsung Galaxy Note 2, so please forgive my inexperience.
When you say "Flash the boot.img from the ROM zip", do you mean the CM11 nightly ROM? I only have the ZIP file downloaded from CM website.
Could you please explain the process in simpler terms please?
Thank you again

Quick explanation of what the issue is:
Some kernels/recoveries are ported from the Z1 so tell the ROM installer script that it is running on the wrong type of phone. As you have a ZU (I hope) we can get around this by flashing a new kernel and recovery to the phone, this is the boot.img that you can extract from the ROM zip that you are trying to flash.
This assumes that the phone has an unlocked bootloader, if not you cant run a custom ROM
Save the ROM to the internal storage of the phone (I always use /sdcard/0/Downloads)
Open the CM ROM zip in 7zip/winzip/etc and just extract the boot.img to somewhere (desktop will do)
Open flashtool (https://unrestrict.li/flashtool)
Select the thunder bolt
Select fastboot mode
Select 'Select kernel to flash'
Open the folder where you saved the boot.img file, and change the file type at the bottom from *.sin to *.img and open boot.img
With the phone powered off connect to the PC while holding the vol up key
Wait for about 1-2 seconds (you will see OK in the main flashtool window)
Reboot into the new recovery and flash the ROM like normal
Thank you so much for your support. I will follow your instructions this afternoon, when I have some free time and report back
I've just followed your instructions and they worked perfectly! Thank you so much
After, I flashed the boot.img with Flashtool I was able to install the CM11 rom without issue And I now have a new recovery - CWM which is fine.
Am I correct in thinking that future CM11 zips should now install OK, without having to flash the boot.img each time?
Many thanks again.

Yep that is correct, and any other ROM should install just fine as well.
That's great, Thank you again
Through rooting and flashing CM11 on the Z Ultra, it's made it so much nicer to use and taught me lots too.
Install CM11 Z ULTRA
Ola amigo, se possivel faça um tutorial ensinando a flashear a cm 11 no Z ultra brasileiro.
Hi
I have bricked my HTC One Max and I do not know which version is this. I m new to this things and presume that I have installed the custom rom of some other operator presuming this to be Verizon`s. I am sending the screen shot of the phone in bootloader mode. The problem is when I boot the phone it shows the HTC screen and the screen goes blank and then again shows the HTC screen. Please help me with this. Have attached the screen shot of the phone. Please help me.

You are unlocked. Fastboot flash twrp recovery and simply flash another Rom from there. You are not bricked.
Thanks for the prompt reply. NOw I tried fastboot recovery twrp and sideload custom rom but following are the problems I am facing:
1. "E: Error executing updater binary in zip `/tmp/sideload.zip`
2. Once it also said that MD5 file missing in the ROM
3. I am unable get the IMEI number once when the ROM was installed successfully.

Well you don't have a Verizon version max. Yours is a t6ula so do you have the correct recovery installed and are you flashing the correct Rom for your device ?
Hi, I need help with my phone, I accidentally changed the permissions (using ROM Toolbox Lite) from the system folder making the phone crash shortly after. Now it shows the Alcatel logo and shuts off and back on in recovery mode.
I'm new with adb and CWM/TWRP stuff, but I can't find the device using adb (I installed the usb drivers correctly) , it only finds on sideload and even then I get "error: closed"...and with CWM/TWRP I can't use sideload because:
"You need adb 1.0.32 or newer to sideload to this devices" (and I used 1.0.36)
And with zip file (CWM) method I get:
"E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted"
Please help, I can't find the stock rom for this phone
Did you find a solution? HAve a Bootloop too

Hi, My 6044d also in boot loop, not rooted so I can't get stock boot.img or recovery.img in order to compile CWM and CM from source for this particular phone. Please someone post it and of course, when compiled I'll post back de results for all of us that need a custom ROM for this phone. It's crazy that this phone is not so popular and the common custom roms don't have one for it out of the box, that's why I decided to compile it myself, but I can't get my boot.img or recovery.img to configure build environment for this especific phone.
Thanks in advance!

Hey, sorry for taking so long to answer, i actually got 2 mega.co.nz links for this, another user gave them to me ^^

and
https://mega.nz/#!Ncx2VASY!gfxVbnQj9HK9WUGiidKY83pJZA7ToTQu5RFDfu2miWE
I found your other post too, and given that im a noob i tried to reply there, then i was trying to private message you (failed cause im not smart xD) and now im here :3
Tell me if something goes wrong, i didnt check this myself cause i sent my phone to repair, it was so broken they didnt knew it was rooted xD
Best of Luck ^^
And yeah, this phone is not popular at all, not even Alcatel cares, i emailed them to see if they were gonna release some updates, didnt even got a reply until now
But well, im gonna check out what youre doing, sowwie im a copycat xD
Good luck again ^^
I'm a little bit late but if you still need or someone else needs it just let me know as I have Carliv Touch and stuck recovery for this device.
Little late as well, but do you still have that recovery? i picked up my phone again and i wanna mess with it
I am trying to install TWRP but struggling
The phone is running ANdroid 6. I have unlocked the bootloader successfully.
I am using this link for TWRP, http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/orig-development/twrp-z5-compact-t3235161
Originally I downloaded the files from the 1st post but upon reboot it was stuck on the white curtain screen.
Upon research I found out that the above guide is for Android 5. This link is for android 6.
Now I have downloaded this new file. My question is do i just flash this new file now?
Or are there any extra steps required? Such as a new boot.img file after flashing the new recovery file?
Flash it if you want?
I've no idea what you mean with "this new file", or "extra steps" (extra compared with what?) so I can't help with that. In general, you just should follow the steps in one of the guides to install TWRP. There're plenty, and most of them have in common that they already explain how you can install them and what you need. Also in general, you don't have to add "extra steps" or leave steps out.
Ok thanks.
I have now got the latest TWRP file, https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24499762636001943
The kernel im using is Latest AndroPlus Kernel V31.
So in bootloader i have fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to install TWRP
Then flashed the latest kernel using fastboot flash boot boot.img
I have rebooted the phone but now it keep booting into recovery, not the system.
Please can someone help?
Hello,
I was wondering if some could help me please. I wanted to flash RR Rom 6.0 on my BLA-L09(I think that what's it is) phone.
I was able to unlock my boot loader, and flash TWRP my device but my dumb s*** flashed TWRP to my file system use FLASH SYSTEM instead of FLASH RECOVERY. Now, I can't fix it ?. I know I can use sideload so I'm not panicking just yet however I know I messed up the file system.
Could someone tell me what file system system I should be using (fat, exfat, ext4, etc...) and what to do to get this think to boot backup.?
I've tried and side loading "update_full_BLA-L29_hw_la.zip" stock ROM but no luck... I keep getting this error message:
"check_write_data_to_partition,write data error
Update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed
Updated process ended with error: 9"
HELP.!!!
