That happens when you try to update your ROM using the stock recovery. Most shops install ROM's which don't include the apk needed to update the ROM from the stock recovery. In such case, your best chance is to flash TWRP recovery and flash the update using it. There are lots of tutorials here which will teach you how to do it. It's not hard.

Heyyo, I've never heard of this situation before using stock recovery with custom ROMs then again I've never attempted it. Learned something new today thanks jman0

This is not my first Android device and I'm familiar with the process of flashing ROMs. Usually I would follow a guilde to root my device, flash a recovery then use Rom Manager or something similar to flash the latest recovery before trying the ROMs I wanted but the Nook is a little different. I managed to root my Nook, then I tried to use Goo Manager to install TWRP but I could not get the Nook to boot in to recovery after I did. I ended up using a CWM installer .apk to flash CWM 5.x.x. That all went well. I then tried to flash Cyanogen 10.1. It seemed to install fine but when I reboot it starts to show the Cyanogen boot animation then freezes and shuts down. Doing some research it seems like not every recovery works with every rom? I think I also saw somewhere that I need to flash Cyanogen 7 before I do 10? I keep finding random different bits of information all over these forums (some newer some older) and it's hard to find definitive answers. If someone could come in and point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. I would preferably like to flash an up to date recovery where I can try out different ROMs easily as I please without having to flash a new recovery or unbrick my Nook every time. What recoveries do you use and what is your normal ROM flashing process?
You don't need to install CM7 but a CWM 6.x.x is needed. If you have an earlier version CWM you can use that to flash the higher version. Under C in this post I give a link to where I found mine when I did my first CM10 install. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081981

I'm not sure what link you are referring to, k
But in the one I provide there are links to Verdicts ftp pages. If you go there you need to choose what to download once you're there.

I've unlocked the bootloader of my Desire X, but whenever I try to install Android revolution, it gives me a bunch of errors saying the file couldn't be opened, any rom I stick on the SD has trouble being read by Nexus recovery , I've tried 3 other SD cards. Also after I rooted the phone, I still can't give applications such as Titanium backup root privileges because it says it couldn't find the root binary?
I've got Nexus recovery installed on stock 4.2.
I've also wanted to try other recoveries, is it as simple as flashing a new one through fastboot or do I have to do something else?
I really need help, so I'd be grateful for any you can offer me

If you are on stock 4.2, you also have HBoot 1.25, so maybe you can't install these roms because your HBoot it isn't 1.24 or lower.
Try to re-flash stock recovery, then flash neXus' again.
Or maybe it can be kernel stuff, did you flash the attached boot.img?

But the rom does say it is available for 1.25+
and do I have to flash a stock recovery? Can't I install another recovery (not stock) by using the fastboot command?

Also, is there a recovery that's sure to work with Hboot 1.25 JB?
If so, can I just flash that recovery over my current one?
Anybody?

Can you just provide help for me on here? I'd really appreciate it.
Here's my situation in case I wasn't clear in OP, I installed the Nexus recovery but it wasn't able to flash the rom I wanted, so now I want to flash another recovery, and was just wondering whether I could just flash another recovery on top of the old one or if I have to do something else?

Look in the 'Desire X Original Android Development' Section for a TWRP recovery for JB hboot. It's working great for me. You can flash it the same way you flashed the NexusRecovery (fastboot)

So I can just flash it over the current recovery I have? I don't need to go back to stock?
Right

Yeah. You can just flash it over the NexusRecovery. You never have to go back to stock.
Okay, I just flashed TWRP over my current recovery.
I've tried to flash Sense revolution and it just fails through TWRP, why is this?
Wipe the phone and try again.
Maybe It can be because of MD5 verification. Only happens on that ROM?

I have ClockworkMod Recovery and was able to install Clean Rom but can not install any thing else. I use to use TWRP and like it better. My question is how can I go back to it and not break my phone?

There is a flashable zip in the twrp thread to install 2.5.0.2 right from recovery. For some reason I can't upload it otherwise I would have
You can also use the one click tool which has an option to install twrp 2.5.0.2. i used it today.

I want to use TWRP but I cant find the right files. Also would I use Oden to install?
Download goo manager from play store.

So a somewhat related question here. I installed twrp with goomanager after rooting and all the installation instructions I see for roms say to use a loki'd recovery. As I understand it, it's just another installation method. Does it matter?
Hi I am running CM10.2 but Titanium Backup (amongst other apps) tells me I do not have root, even though it is enabled in Developer Options. I have tried rooting again via Odin and that 'passes' ok but still I have no root.
I can boot into recovery but cannot install the latest version of CM11. All very curious!
I wonder if anyone out there could suggest any solutions please?
Thanks very much! Very strange...
Two suggestions: 1. Make sure you have the latest CWM or TWRP recovery (this is needed for 4.4.x
2. you go back to stock Samsung, then flash a recovery, then flash cm11 (root is included in the build if I'm right)
You don't need to root to flash another rom anyway.

I have a phone which due to some perhaps corrupted bootloader or recovery cannot enter download mode. It is not rooted.
Is there any way to flash a ROM, be it stock or custom, without the phone being either rooted or without entering download mode? I can enter the recovery, so I'm hoping that there is a way to use an update.zip from there to fix my problem
The phone is a I9300T.
I have previous posted about this, describing this problem here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/flashing-4-3-breaks-download-mode-t2749590
Root it via framaroot and download rom manager (avaible in play store). Now you can flash a custom recovery and switch roms. Probably triangle away can help or destroys your device completly. Havent you warranty?
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk
Bad advice! HOW MANY TIMES... NEVER USE ROM MANAGER WITH SAMMY PHONE'S. Ever!! Read about what can go wrong.
I strongly, strongly recommend you to send it to warranty before you ROM or root it.

Problem is, the ROM counter is at 3, and they'll likely refuse warranty on the pretext that I broke it my custom ROMing it.
Is Framaroot a good idea?
Try root it from framaroot, if framaroot doesn't work, try to get in download mode and use odin with CF-AutoRoot package for I9300T and get "Rashr" from the play store, flash recovery, (CWM)
