I can't flash ROM : "no MD5 file found" - Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers

Hello,
This morning I try to install a Custom ROM so I follow a tutorial on XDA Developer. First, I installed TWRP Recovery with Linux (I have a dual boot computer I use for windows for all). After I formated my device with the tab : Wipe, I delete /dalvik /system /cache and all others. Then, try to install lot of Custom ROM (like POISON v2.2, OmniROM, etc..). And every time, it write : "checking MD5 file ... no MD5 file found" and it reboot TWRP.
Can someone help me ? Sorry for my English speaking, I'm french and I'm not very good in English and on the computer..
Thank you beforehand

Untick the MD5 thing in settings. You don't need it.

I don't find where is he tick..
How can I untick him ?
In setting I have only these option:
- Zip signature verification
- Reboot after installation is complete
- Use rm -rf instead of formatting
- Disable free space check before backup
- Skip MD5 generation during backup
- Enable MD5 Verfication of Backup files
- Use 24-hour clock
- Reversed navbar layout
- Prompt to install TWRP app if not installed
- Simulate actions for theme testing
And there are all untick except "Prompt to install TWRP app if not installed" and "Skip MD5 generation during backup"..
Thank you

This is a beta version of Boot Menu Manager v0.3.0~
Note : Version ending with alphabet is considered as beta/test version.
New features/changes:​

- virtual system (add extra 4 system)
specify each system setting in bootmenu.prop.
you can mixed internal/external storage to store partition image.
Todo :​
Recovery
- fix installer zip filemanager (for now, use keypad to browse & select)
- add zip install queue
Bootmenu
- ramdisk cache
Bootmenu Manager App
- too many to list.
- priority : Easy Installer & Rebooter
Bugs/Issues :​
- sync disk after a backup took long time. fix by optimizing IO scheduler??
If anybody want to help, try optimize /system/etc/bmm/conf/recovery.rc
Installer/Download:​
If coming from 0.2.8 & below:
- backup your 2nd-system before begin.
- on first boot, choose setting, system_2, partition setup, activate CDROM.
- then go to recovery & restore your data.
For best result, start from a fresh install ROM. (use ROM not converted by older BMM)
If coming from 0.2.9/0.3.0a:
- move 1st-system /data/media/cache.img to /data/media/virtual/system_1/cache.img
- move 2/3/4/5 system data from /{internal/external storage}/bmm/system_* to /{internal/external storage}/clockworkmod/virtual/system_*
If coming from 0.3.0b & ++
- Just boot to system 1 & run install.bat. No need to backup/reinstall ROM
Install/upgrade method :
ADB push - Please boot to stock system
(APK installer is not done yet)

Is this version compatable with d-wiz ROM?
If coming from 0.2.8 & below, backup your 2nd-system before begin.
On first boot, choose setting, system_2, partition setup, activate CDROM.
Then go to recovery & restore your data.
i came from 0.2.8 and seems every thing fine after activate CDROM. when i push recoervy button just boot to main system only, nothing happen, something wrong with me?

Does it work after 2nd reboot? Any more details?
Some bugs I found :

-Can't switch back to system 1 in recovery.
-sometime kexec won't boot.
I'll upload 0.3.0.c in few hours
I got it. You need to create cache before go to recovery.
now trying to flash some rom
Brilliant very promising. Glad we can use the EXT.
Will it be able to recover backups from other recovery systems, like 2.7 was able to do?

ok it looks like 0.3.0c has ability to create cache itself.
now i'm trying to flash some rom again.

This is a great modern recovery and definitely a step forward over SafeStrap 3, thanks!
It is possible to edit slot layouts and keep compatibility with further development (e.g. the app)? I intend to mimic v0.2 behaviour, so that the stock firmware layout is left untouched ([email protected],data:[email protected],cache:[email protected]), and the other system is completely contained within webtop partition (system:[email protected],data:[email protected],cache:[email protected]), the other four slots will be unused. Will it work (especially redirecting everything to webtop)?

[Q] Creating back up w/ TWRP

So i am trying to create a backup through recovery(twrp) -
i select backup
boot, data and system are checked (cache,recovery are unchecked, is that correct?)
i am unsure if i should be selecting enable compression or skip md5 generation
i swipe to backup and get the following message " E: Unable to locate storage device"

[Q] got big problem with nexus 4

You don't have to enable USB debugging for adb to work in recovery. As a first measure, I'd check the md5 or sha checksum of your ROM file and re-download when in doubt. This specific error looks like something went wrong while updating your current system. Try formating /system first (mounts and storage -> format system) before sideloading your ROM.
Cheers
Michael
Thank you
Thank you for all your help.

Updater process ended with ERROR: 7

Hi all. I keep getting this error after rooting, installing SuperSu and TWRP. When I try to flash a ROM (any ROM), I get stuck. I've tried the latest Resurrection and CM ROMS. Will someone please help me past this last hurdle? Thank you!
I can't upload or link the screenshot but here's the info:
Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset.
Which I have done several times.
Backup ==> select all ==> Swipe to Backup
Wipe ==> Advenced Wipe ==> /System + /Data + /Cache Confirm "Swipe to Wipe" . Try installing again ROM

That did the trick! I put Resurrection OS on there and all is well except for finding a stable GAPPS build.
Not working for me, my device is KII-L21 on stock rom and I'm trying to install official CM13, my device is rooted and have twrp
If your device is wiped It isnt rooted.. Wipe it dont forget Cache partitions try again.

Bro, me sirvió. Muchas gracias
It really works, thanks dude
I think it all boils down to doing a format /system.
Next time I will try that!
Edit: I was wrong, the format /data is needed.
If I don't to the reset I am one of those that always gets error 7.
unmount ->system, data, cache :good:
As I already posted at https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70851854&postcount=534,
I am able to avoid the Error 7 (inconsistend data) by switching to gapps mini before installing the update.
Since the experiental build, I do the following within one TWRP session: install latest gapps mini, install the upgrade to latest lineage-nightly and reinstall latest gapps stock.
So far it works for me.
Do a clean install wiping system, data, cache and dalvik cache before flashing a new ROM is adviced, it will avoid most of problems. For the GApps, I recommend OpenGapps Pico version to install the minimal needed, then you can install the other Google apps you need from the Play Store.
Guys I need some help here. I'm running into the same TWRP error 7 situation. The phone is unlocked, and I've installed kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery. The model of the device is Honor X5 (KIW-CL00)
I've tried flashing both ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20161220-kiwi & lineage-14.1-20170419-nightly-kiwi-signed ROM, whether it's flashing from the phone's storage or from the SD card, both ROM are giving me the same error code.
I tried formatting the system, advance wipe function (Dalvik & Cache & Data & System), now I don't even have the default factory ROM on my phone, but I'm still getting the error 7 code.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

U need to edit and repack everything . And do remember that if u mess a single letter it will give an error
Thanks
Sure I wipe advanced by every attempt.
Twrp 3.1.1 the same problem.
But you have right, the Solution for me is not to unzip and zip the file for delete the "assert". Only the way to edit without unpack the File in the Ubuntu "ARCHIVMANAGER" works.
Now it is installed but now I am in a bootloop But this is an other Problem. One step after another.

So , plz upload the updater-script here . I will edit and forward u . Later repack everything as is, lets see if that works . If not , i will build a rom for u especially
Thanks its work fine now. It was my fault, I updated from Lollipop not from Nougat. So I used Huawei Firmbootextraktor extract system.img cust.img recovery.img and boot.img and on my SD I copy ../dload/update.app version B140 Android 5.1.1. Then the Handy started I updated EMUI 4.0 and Android 6.1. Now works my Handy with all zip files where I delete the asserts.
Maybe was the problem, in the assert is wrote "kiwi" and my Handy is a "KIW-L21"
