Problem when updating in hboot

When running the "all-in-one" sprint lovers PC36IMG In Hboot, it starts the update but when it gets to "system" i keep getting a Fail-UZ. Now i cannot restore my previous roms and the phone will not boot. Help.
everything else updates ok.
I have tried redownloading and keep getting the same error. Image unzip failed. I have also tried using the PC36IMG from clockworkmod zip and now i am getting the same error using that file. I have tried doing a recovery with nandroid and get MD5 checksum difference and cannot recover my backup. I have also tried installing you rom from the zip file and get something along the line of E:/ error line 8..... I have only been able to reflash the myn-OTA_Supersonic_3.29.651.5-DEODEXED rom and that is now unstable. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Anybody
have any suggestions

Are you downloading from your phone?

no, thru my computer. I am now unable to load any rom at all.

OP, are you using this:

If one fails, try the other. Another suggestion to get you back to square one is to use the RUU file located below

Good Luck!

I've tried all of those and nothing seems to work. I guess im sol at this point.

Did you do a wipe of all the caches when you did the install? That seems to have helped others.

Fresh Start

So i had to Odin back to stock because in whatever rom i used i wouldnt get vibration for text messages. This worked fine and i flashed back to eugenes stock jk2 that was prerooted. Now i need to install new roms again and im having trouble. I have rom manager installed and superuser was already there. I got the rom on the sd card (tried with multiple roms), but when i go to flash the roms it fails because it can't verify the signature. Even when i go to fix permissions and reboot my phone like rommanager tells me to it cant flash a new rom. On the other roms i had i would just go to advanced options in recovery and disable verification checks but with the stock recovery i cant do this. So my main question is why isnt this option in cwm recovery and how can i get it there so i can start getting roms again. Thanks for anyone who takes the time to read this...

Make sure that you have CWM recovery flashed onto your phone using odin. Also make sure that whatever rom you install is on agreement with your software version.

Are you putting the rom on the internal memory?

Yea i copied it to the iternal sd, i see it on the internal sd, but the only way to reflash it is to rename it update.zip becauae all i can do is reinstall system packages

You have to download cwmrecovery, plug your phone in while in download mode and put cwmrecovery onto your phone. Just installing rom manager doesn't cut it and trying to flash anything will give the exact errors you're talking about.

You put the rom Just on the internal sd card not any folders right?

its doesent matter at least for me if the rom is right there or in a folder no difference just file called update.zip need to be there (not in the folder )

and no ! u cant flash clockwork recovry thru odin ! loL both of these program u mentioned are intended to flash roms not to be flashed as rom p u can flash in clockwork recovery if the rome is made for it which would be packed with .zip file if its odin file it would be .tar not every rom is flashable thru odin or clockwork depends how devs made it

Something must have gotten corrupted in the file transfer. I know your fustrated . Have you tried repeating the odin process?

Yea it was on the internal sd, i mean iv probably flashed 20 different roms and i know how to move them between different file folders and how to access them ect... The only problem is basically that im stuck in stock which has a different recovery

No this sounds like a good idea though, maybe i should use a different tar file.

Here is the update.zip that will flash you into clockwork from stock recovery. Put this on your phone's internal sd, reboot to recovery, and hit "reinstall packages". If your phone reboots to stock recovery again, hit reinstall packages again and the second time it should put you right into Clockwork Recovery. Good Luck.

Thank you this is what iv been looking for

NP Friend, let me know if it works for you.

What rom are you currently running, still on Eugene's JK2? If you Odin'd a stock file, you may have 2e recovery, not the modded 3e. Check this thread, it may help you out with the stock recovery issue. In fact untermensch mentions this kind of issue specifically in the OP. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423

[RADIO] problem with flashing

hello,
i've finally managed to flash newest recovery and get my cm7 installed
now i am tryin to update my radio to newest version but ofcourse i am havin problem with that.. i am runnin cm7 with nightly 40, cmw 3.0.0.6, i downloaded newest radio but in cwm it says i cannot be installed cuz there is no more someking of scrippter in cwm 3.0.0.x oO, next i've tried via rommenager but it goes to recovery and i get the same error all the time ;f
what can i do with it? is there a way to flash radio with cwm 3.0.0.6? if no, how can i safely downgrade cwm to version that will be able of flashin radio?
cheers

yes that is the latest radio version. it came with froyo.
and how do u think u will update the radio alone. is it with PC49IMG.ZIP process.
i dont know whether updating radio alone (excluding boot.img + recovery.img) gives any issue to ur phone. can someone clarify that

Try using cwm fakeflash by "instalupdate.zip" this will revert back to old cwm on a temporary basis so you can flash roms and radio that are not written in new script language. Be careful flashing new radio as can damage your phone if you get it wrong

Eddster3000, i've tried to downgrade the cmw via RomMenager, it looks like i am getting temporarly the older cwm, but there is one major problem.. it doesnt see files on my sd card, only in cwm 3.0.0.6 it is working fine but cant flash radio but in 2.5.0.7 works only temporarly cwm but without seein the files on my sdcard ;f
is there a way to use adb to flash the radio? if yes then how to do it? i think this would be the simpliest way

If you used AlphaRev, it would give you fastboot support (I think) so it would probably let you flash radio through USB connection.
What is your SD capacity? If you can, try on another one that is 2GB or less.

my sd card is 2gb, what do you mean by alpharev?
i am on w7 x64 i flash cmw via adb so i thought flashing radio wont be a problem will it?

mlotson Have look at post 5 on this page =http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824396

mlotson - go to alpharev.nl for info. For now, only read the info, don't download anything. It's not released for Wildfire yet, but it's not that far away.

first of all i have s-off because i've used xtc clip. second of all that guide is reffering to clockwork mod 2.5.0.7 probably because the 3.0.0.6 doesnt support some scriptting which is why i cant flash my radio, however i need to downgrade my cwm do 2.xx to be able to flash radio and flash ruu.zip file. just tell me how to permanently downgrade cwm to 2.xx and i'll be fine.. i promise ;p
now it seems like normally i have cwm 3.0.0.6 but when i run rommenager it says it's 2.xxx the problem is that there is some sort of incompatibility between these two, one sees the files on my sdcard and the older one doesnt.
what cwm are u using right now? and where can i download it?
@ up date, the whole situation is probably because od 3.0.0.6 cwm, it did something to my sd card so cwm 2.x.x.x.x doesnt read it properly.. question is how can i fix it? now i have cwm 2.5.0.7 and it shows only clockworkmod/ folder on my sd while i have many many other files.. but when i change it to cwm 3.0.0.6 it reads all the files and every thing is all right but i cant install old roms because of scripting method which is not supported by cwm 3 < i guess removing the whole recovery wont do the problem because that is not the first time i flashed recovery and under 3.0 i cant read my sd in recovery.. please help!it pain in the as$.. -,O

I'm not sure how to permanently downgrade CWM but I'll see what I can found out. I think CWM will always show 2.xxx in Rom-Manager which is the fakeflash version, even if you have upgraded CWM to 3.xxx
I'm on new CWM 3 and it's same as you describe in RM but only differance is that I can temp' downgrade CWM and flash all old scripts.
Do you think it's to do with XTC clip process? I'm not a programmer so I'm afraid I can only help with suggestions

now i am sure that it has something to do with ext, ive partitioned the sd card in cwm 3.0.0.6 to do so i had to formatted sd, then i flashed cwm 2.5.0.7 and went into cwm, now it doesnt show anything on my sd card it keeps sayin "no files found." ... ;F how to fix it .. ;o it's annoying

Surely if u have formatted the sd card them no matter which cwm you use will not find any files? Or did you format then copy the radio image to the root of the sd card? Have you tried a standard format of sd card using pc or laptop with a card reader? then copy files to sd card via pc before putting back into the phone.

i have formatted with pc, the sdcard was in the phone (i dont have card reader), it didnt fix it. so i formatted it again in cwm but again it didnt help, next i partitioned sd in rom menager but it also didnt work. now i am on cmw 3.0.0.6 because thats the only one which reads properly files from my sdcard.. i think ill try different sdcard but i dont have one for now ;p i guess til then i wont know for sure what's the reason

In fact you have to reinstall CWM 3.0.0.6 this will fix your radio or/and gps problems as it did on me

[Q] Please help

Downloaded a rom from forum and gapps with gtalk video, installed thru rom manager. Rom just stays on boot screen, so i went into recovery to go back to my previous rom but when I hold down volume down and power it takes me to hboot radio v2 update. Cannot go into recovery, just asked if I want to update or not. Is there another way to get to recovery?

Stuck on hboot cannot scroll down to recovery

your problem is that you have your radio file to flash still on the root of your SD card. take out your SD card and put it in another phone or to your computer and delete the PD15IMG.zip (RADIO file) and put it back in your phone and try again. im guessing you have the eng hboot which is why it wants to flash the radio file when it sees it.

Thanks maf2003 I appreciate the help

[Q] ROM packages don't contain DAF

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to recover my HD2 after it being corrupted or something but it wouldn't boot anything or recover or work with USB. Got it to play nice again after a few hundred reboots and reflashing HSPL.
I am trying to install a ROM with MAGLDR but cannot get it to play ball. I understand that lots of the ROM packs are intended to be loaded with clockwork mod recovery but when I try this, the packages don't have the required daf or .data files.
Any help?
Cheers

I don't think you understand how to use clockwork mod (well at least not how to flash things via clockwork mod). You should flash clockwork mod then copy the rom (which will come in a zipped folder) to the root of your SD card. You should then follow this guide in order to install the ROM.
The ROM should never be taken out of the zipped folder, and it isn't flashed via an .exe program (that's one of the best things about clockwork mod, everything can be done away from your PC if you want, you can just download the update straight to your phone and use a file explorer to move it from the download folder to the root of your SD card).

Thanks for the feedback. I understand that clockwork mod is great because you can just drop the file sin and boot but the issue is that the downloads that I've made don't work. I cleaned my sd card before putting Hyperdroid CM7 on it and it was the only thing on the card. I went into recovery in the boot menu and then
it comes up with the usual "123456 GOGOGO" and then just hangs on the screen. After looking around, i found mention of the .data folder being required to execute it but it isn't in any of the downloaded roms i have.

So it hangs whilst trying to enter clockwork mod (at the 'GO GO GO' screen)?

That's right. Then it just sits there until i take the battery out. I left it on charge for 5 hours yesterday and it didn't budge. When loading the ROMs it seems to all work fine and everything is up to date. It just won't boot into it.
