HI
Sorry if i am in the wrong section to post. If I am, please move to a more convenient group.
I made a custom Rom in the android kitchen. Everything went through well, no problems at all. then when I try to install to my phone, it wont install and I get these errors:
One error I got while installing was: Installation Abored: Status 6.
Now I get this error white installing: E:Cant open /sdcard/primou_signed_031613_094637.zip (bad) Installation aborted.
Whats going on because I havent changed/converted any update scripts just added an apk then zip aligned it. The original roms install ok, but my own dont install when everything is set the same.
please help me. THANKS
I can upload my two custom roms for you to have a look to see if you can make sense of it. it is for HTC ONE V gsm.
Just try to unzip it and zip it again using WinRAR or 7Zip

one assumes that you have already rooted your HTC Hero ?
If not then follow this
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-root-your-htc-hero-in-one-click/
once that is done then follow this
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-your-htc-hero/
This worked like a charm for me so I assume that it should work for you as well
Hope this helps

Since you are in Asia you likely have the 2.73.707.9 ROM you can check this under Settings/About Phone. Please see this thread:

Where, China? I've heard it called the G2 by virtue of T-Mobile branding it the G2 Touch, but never the G3!

I have this model also, just wondering when we are able to root the hero and install different roms will it enable different android market? I'm in the US and am lacking apps that should be present e.g Pandora, ebuddy etc.
I was wondering if this way of force updating would work?
download the official rom version 1.76.405.x firmware (not rooted),
boot up the unit using home+power (to boot into recovery);
extract the official rom's rom.zip and rename into update.zip
put that update.zip into sdcard's root
on the device, apply the update in the recovery.
?

try it, but i doubt it will work because it will check the CID in the rom.zip(or renamed to update.zip) file and that ROM does not contain CID's needed for most phones.

I guess that's their meaning of non-CID'd rom reply?

uhm, could be, or it doesn't like the rom.zip (altough renamed to update.zip) zip file, which makes sence as we can create update.zip files and sign them ourselfs (stuff that for example paul (modaco) does) i need more playing time myself, but you can try and creating a new zip with the contents of the rom.zip and sign it, then look if that works....but i'm doubtful
funny thing is, i've downloaded the signed rom from modaco, (they are signed, as far as i can be told by the file name), and tried to flash it again using the same method:
log:
Code:
-- Install from sdcard...

E:No signature (740 files)

still no go.
does renaming a file affect the signature?

no, but the type of signing is the problem, the update.zip (with cert/sign files inside the zip) is a different kind then doing an edit on the physical zip file and changing (signing) and thats whats being checked and we currently can't duplicate (or re-sign a changed rom.zip)
I found a solution after being told it was not possible.
The Brown Hero I purchased was also an Asian version and had no Market.
I was so scared and frustrated at first because everyone said there was no solution.
But I found one!
*1. Download Linda file manager from here and install since you don't have the market! (I had a copy already on my sdcard) goto Settings, Applications, and make sure Unknown source is checked ON.
*2. On your phone, goto Settings, SD card and phone storage, and click Unmount SD card.
*3. Then click Format SD card (it should automatically remount after this)
*4. Plug the phone into the compuer via USB, then pull down the notification bar and click on the SD card notification. Then click mount.
*5 Download the Flashrec apk from this link: http://zenthought.org/system/files/asset/2/flashrec-1.1.2-20090909.apk and install using Linda File manager.
*6. Download Amon_RA_Herov1.2.2 Recovery image and place on root of sdcard
*7. Open the FlashRec program and click on Backup Recovery Image and wait for it to finish.
*8. Once done, click on the empty text box in the FlashRec program and type
/sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img
Then click on the Flash Custom RecoveryImage button and wait for it to finish.
*9. Turn off the phone and turn it on into Recovery mode by holding down Home and Power to turn it on (keep holding until the recovery screen comes up has a bunch of text on a black background). So long as that screen comes up, you have done it correctly and now you can load this rom which is HTC Generic 2.73.405.5
It's also referred to as Modaco version 2.2, it's what I'm currently using.
*10. Place that rom on the root of you're sdcard and use option Apply sdcard: choose zip option and flash! Once done reboot and you're all set and will have The Android Market and all the goodness that rooting provides!
Hope this helps!
You had the same ROM version as mentioned in the original post? ^^

My version was a little different but it was an Asian version and did not come with the Android Market installed and had SlideMe market instead.
Here is a screen shot:
i have tried the method u suggested but to no avail. ya, your version of hero is slightly different from mine.
hey guys!!
i had my hero for the first time this week and i heard about a new firmware so im going to to tell what i did exactly!!
1- i erased every thing on my sdcard
2- i turned off my htc hero and went in recovery by pressing home+power
3- i downloaded this rom from this site
http://htcpedia.com/hero_community_release_no_wipe_98057c7bc94393469/soft/htc-hero-rom.html
4- i pressed wipe data/factory setting reset
5- i pressed apply sdcard:update.zip and this came out:
--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:No signature (832)
E:Verification failed
Installation aborted
That's it nothing else ive done !! so please friends help i had the phone for three days only and cant do anything!!
i dont know whats root and whats flashing whats everything what i did is what i told u!!
help me!!
here we go...
1. this is the development section. please think before you post, and select the correct section.
2. if you only wiped your data you should still be able to use the stock android that was on the phone when it was delivered. try turning it on and see what happens.
3. if you opened and altered the zip file that is your problem. don't do that, the file is signed after it is created, and needs to be resigned if the content was changed.
4. try downloading it again, might also be a faulty download.
5. if you have no clue what you were doing (and probably neither know why you wanted to do it), have you thought about finding out first? would you just rip some pieces out of your cars engine because someone in a forum told you to?
edit: Ninja-d by kendong, probably better advice also
thanks very much my friend for fast reply ill try both ways!!

ok, here is how it works: we won't help you if you don't take at least the effort to phrase a question and use some punctuation marks. and don't come with "sorry my english is not so good", every western language uses a dot at the end of the sentence.
what exactly is your problem now? you can turn your phone on and make calls, this is what i get from what you wrote. this would mean that your android boots up and is most probably fully functional. so i am sorry to be that rough, but as long as you don't manage to phrase a single sentence in something that comes even close to english nobody will be able to help you.
and about the wrong thread idea: this is not the wrong forum. it is just the wrong SUBFORUM. as you (tried to) phrase a question it should go into the Q&A subforum, see here. and removing the thread after solving the problem is not the idea of it, next week somebody with a similar problem will ask the same stuff again. will do anyway, but then we don't need to type the answers again, we can just link to this thread.
ok, kendog2!!
What I did now is that I downloaded this rom: (HTC Generic 2.73.405.38 - download)
from this site:
( http://android.modaco.com/content/h...-24-11-hero-roms-radios-in-update-zip-format/ )
*is there a special rom that i should choose for my hero?
and I put it in my sdcard, and renamed it to "update.zip"
and I went recover mode wher there is only 3 options
I pressed (wipe) and than (apply update).
This came out again:
--------------------------
--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:No signature (832)
E:Verification failed
Installation aborted
---------------------------
note: When I downloaded the rom i opened it!!
Does this do anything??
as long as you don't modify and then save the file it *should* not matter. but this points out to a faulty file anyway, so here is what you do:
download it again, do NOT open it (i don't know which tool you are using and what it does), copy to sdcard and apply. then report back.
download this rom an do it again like the way you have done it before
1. download this rom : http://www.romraid.com/paul/hero/update-hero-generic-2.73.405.5-signed.zip
2. rename it to update.zip an put it on your sd card
3. put the sd card in your hero and push the home button while booting
4. and if you are in the recovery menu first wipe all data and then choose the option (the first with ....blabla..update.zip)
5. wait until it installed the new rom and then restart your hero
sry for my bad english im from germany
You need a recovery image that will allow update.zip files signed with test keys.
Read through the Amon_Ra Hero Recovery thread to learn how to get it installed.
Every time I try creating a theme for my Wildfire with the UOT Kitchen i get the Error (Status 0) message after trying to flash it.
I am running CM 7.0.3 with 3.0.2.8 Clockworkmod, so I should be able to flash it.
Can anyone make a complete working guide to this, as all of my tries have failed....

Any other ideas?

Hi all,
I'm trying to replace the font on bubor's CM11 ROM by means of flashing one on of the ZIPs available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...-fontster-betas-flashable-font-packs-t2513985
I am using bubor's TWRP v2.7.1.
The problem I first encountered when trying to flash a font was the error message "Error executing updater binary" and thus the flashing "Failed". Based on the advice at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2290009 , I figured it would probably be a good idea to replace the update-binary with the one found in my ROM's ZIP, so I did that.
However, the ZIP still doesn't flash. Although I no longer get the "Error executing updater binary" message, now TWRP simply tells me "Error flashing zip" without offering me any explanation.
Please can you help with this, and apologies for the noob question. I have tried installing the ZIP from both internal and external SD. My SD's are swapped - could that have something to do with it?
- downlaoded http://www.mediafire.com/download/40x5qm44a24p0dg/CantarellFontPack.zip
- downlaoded http://dualhoki.vim.hu/bubor/dev/keyboard-light.zip
- replace update-binary ( copy from keyboard-light.zip)
- install
no error.
Would you be more detailed what did you use with what, please.

I'm sorry for not being detailed enough.
I tried following your steps but unfortunately the flashing still failed. I eventually got it to work after a combination of actions, but I think the most crucial one was changing the write permissions of the \system\fonts folder from "drwxr-xr-x" to "drwxrwxrwx".
Thanks for your efforts in any case, I really appreciate all the work you're doing.
Hi,
i have install TWRP v2.8.0.0. I have several zip file install. Durin the Installation i see the following error messages. For example, I installed the following file over the TWRP Install Button.
Code:
quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
and
Code:
quantal-preinstalled-armel+manta.zip
Code:
Updating partition details...
E:error opening '/data/ubuntu/dev/rmai11'
E:error: Not a directory
E:error opening !/data/ubuntu/dev/ram9'
E:error: Not a directory
. . .
I have no answer to the error messages.
Can you help me?
Advance many thanks for your support.
Love greeting of
Stefan Harbich
Hello everyone,
shame that still nobody has reported. I have indeed managed to install TWRP v.2.8.0.0, but I have the Android OS 4.2.2 somehow uninstalled when the wipe command. Now I have no OS on my tablet. Well, all for over a week. I just tested a Flash Boot ZIP file to the Android version 4.2.2 Least again, to be able to install on TWRP. Different ZIP's from the XDA developers could not be installed. Either because the zip could not be installed or the possible Ubuntu Toch Version.
I would be very happy if one of you could adopt my problem, because I have not been as conscientiously as you.
Advance for your support and warm Dankf
Kind regards Stefan Harbich
I have the same problem. I've tried to install Ubuntu on Samsung S3 and now in TWRP - whatever I do (install, backup..) - these errors accur
Btw, everything works, but there are about 30 lines of errors like this about missing directories.
Any ideas?
