Bootloop - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have a HP 8 tablet running android 4.4.2 in a bootloop.
Managed to get adb sideload going but the 4.4.2 update image I downloaded triggers the following error:
E: Footer is wrong
E. Signature Verification Failed
Installation aborted
Is there perhaps a special recovery img that I can use to get out of the bootloop, without losing data?
Hope you can help!
Thanks

Either your update.zip is corrupted or you have the latest recovery installed -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12518067#post12518067
thank you
thank you i will try that
your problem "E: signature verification failed " is your recovery which uses signed update.zip from toshiba only..
see my FolioMod post #1 and follow link to recover a working recovery, that do not use signed update.zip.

[Q] Need help - Phone looks bricked and I'm new

First of all, sorry, if this is the wrong forum.
I've got an Elephone G5 and tried to upgrade it with a custom rom.
What I did:
I installed
PhilZ Touch 6.57.9
ClockworkMod 6.0.5.1
Now I'm getting these errors:
symlink: some symlinks failed
E:Error in /storage/sdcard1/elephone-g5-dxp-rom-03.zip
(Status: 7)
E:Installation aborted.
E:read_file_to_buffer: '/storage/sdcard1/elephone-g5-dxp-rom-03.zip.md5' not found
MD5 check: error
Several ROMs didn't work.
When I try to open Fastboot mode, it says "fastboot mode...." and that's it.
I can't get it working, please help me!
Thanks in advance!

HELP! XT1021, Upgrade Problem

I have rooted the device some time ago and now the lollipop update finally arrived.
I've used the original system all time long but when i try to update i get error, finally i've tried a sideload update and i can see the error. Now my problem is with this error:
Package expects build fingerprint of motorola/condor-retde/condor_umts:4.4.4/KXC21.5-40/46:user/release-keys or motorola/condor-retde/condor_umts:5.1/LPC23.13-34.8/10:user/release-keys this device has motorola/condor-retaildsds/condor_umtsds:4.4.4/KXC21.
Instalation aborted.
Now i believe i understand why i get this error, but my question is how to make it work. And what's the best method, by modifying the current software or by modifying the update.zip
PS. I'm an sysadmin not an android developer so please keep it simple.
Hi. My Moto E is giving me the same error as yours. Using Team Win Recovery Project, it says:

Help! KI Pro - Can't Install Custom ROM or Boot TWRP Recovery

I'm new to Android Boxes, got myself a MECOOL KI PRO box and I'm trying to get a new ROM onto it since the regular MECOOL one sucks.
I spotted a VITMOD ROM which is the Android TV OS for the KI, so I've got the .ZIP onto the USB and used the UPDATE app on the box to perform a local update. It sees the update and it reboots into starting the update. It takes me to the Android recovery screen and tries to update but it says:
Verifiying update package
E: Footer is wrong
E: Signature Verification failed
E: error: 21
Installation Aborted

I read that it may be because I need to use TWRP, so I found a recovery.img for S905X and attempted to put that on the USB and go into recovery, however it hangs on the boot up logo and can't get into TWRP, but goes into the regular Android Recovery fine.
Ah managed to work it out
My Mac was unzipping the file every time I downloaded it, so I was manually zipping it back up onto the USB.
I just figured that unzipping and zipping would break the verification and it's worked now!
Where do you found the recovery.img
Hello i have the same problem in Windows and i don't have unzip anything. Where do you found the recovery.img and how we do please ? Thanks

error in recovery it shows me this:
Verifying current system... E3005: "/bt_firmware/image/btfw32.tlv" has unexpected contents. E:Error in /cache/Blur_Version.27.211.6.griffin.retail.en.US.zip (Status 7) Installation aborted.
You received error because you used the wrong OTA file (Blur_Version.27.211.6.griffin.retail.en.US.zip it's already installed on your phone if you re-locked it).
On the other topic I gave you the tutorial to sideload and the correct file to use, Blur_Version.27.231.8.griffin.retail.en.US.zip.
