Hey guys.
Sorry for starting a new thread, but I've gone through a lot of threads and still can't find my problem.
So here goes.
My phone:
HTC Magic
32A
6.35 Radio
I have the RA amon v1.6.2 recovery installed.
When I try to flash a ROM, I keep getting the following error half way through the flashing:
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Could anyone explain to me what this means, and what I need to do?
Thanks a lot!
please response someone i have some problemm
Try formatting the SD card. Backup anything you want to keep off of it before. FAT32 default allocation if done from Windows.

I recommend you upgrade your recovery to the newer version. I found the same status error 7 when I was using RA Hero recovery 1.6.2.

Okay. thanks man. But what is the new version of the recovery?
I've tried the "recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H" recovery, but it doesn't want to go into recovery then?
I've now tried quite a few different recoveries, but none seems to work. As soon as I select something in the recovery, it either stalls or restart my device.
Any suggestions please?

I think there's a 1.7.0.1 recovery that you can use. You need the one specifically for the 6.35 radio.

I've got a weird one going. I tried to flash a new rom after wipe with factory reset using clock work. The rom did not flash the build prop and some of the framework I tried other rom's starting with a restored running rom and the same results. Everything works fine just flashing a new rom seems to be incomplete any ideas?

Yep that's what I did. Used a different recovery and super wipe. All us well. I agree with the post that is two above this one. Corrupt items.

I recently did a back up if my stock mt4g using clockwork. When I went to do a restore of that rom and rebooted it stayed stuck on the mt4g load screen. Anyone else have this problem? Did I do something wrong?

what version of clockwork did you use to make the backup?

Welcome to brick world, that's exactly what destroyed my phone and, like you, I was running 3.0.0.5 If you ever do get the phone working again let me know how you did it, please?

The reason your phone appears to be bricked is it (CWRM 3.0.0.5) is a ext4 recovery image, and 2.2 is a ext3 ROM....
. If you find a 2.x version of CWRM you can flash it via the ADB commands and restore the phone.
OR
boot into recovery and flash the CM7 w/ gapps then download CWRM ( the free one ) and flash 2.x that way. You'll have to scroll to the bottom and select one of the 2.x recovery images.
If you can get into Recovery or into fastboot your phone is not truly bricked.
I have CM7 installed and Rom Manager, but when i try to flash an older recovery it says it cannot be flashed. How exactly would you flash the 2.X version via ADB? Thanks.

If you can get into CwM recovery then just flash my zip and use the 3.0.0.6 recovery that is included. Then make sure that you make/restore all backups from recovery and not rom manager. Rom manager is not compatable with CwM 3.0.0.X when it comes to making nandroids.
Thanks a lot, but i keep running into and issue at the recovery. I followed the instructions from your thread, and i got into the blue recovery screen, but it says
"E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Can't mount DATA:data/recovery/log"
And the only option to restore is the Applysdcard:update.zip and that fails

So, that is the stock recovery. You need to choose the 3.0.0.5 version from "All ClockworkMod recoveries" if using my zip. If that wont work, try sending a new recovery via fastboot or terminal emulator.
You can set up adb/fastboot by checking out the link in my sig and using the command (make sure you rename the recovery to recovery.img for ease of use)
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
or you can try terminal method by placing the recovery on your sd card and renaming it recovery.img Then open up TE and type "su" then the flollowing
Code:
flash_image recovery recovery.img
If that doesnt work, then let me know and we will find some other things to try.
Whoops haha. Thanks for all the help it's working great now

Thanks.

Yes.
(Sorry, I just can't resist a chance to answer a question sarcastically )
You have been EVOfied.
Well them what is it? I'm not a noob, just don't know why it won't flash a rom
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I had an issue with RM once. Go to "flash alternate recovery" then flash clockwork mod again. It worked after that because there was an incomplete recovery. Might be your issue. If not keep asking.
You have been EVOfied.
i really never used clockwork mod recovery so i'm not sure how it installs rom's from the app itself. Have you tried rebooting into recovery and manually wiping everything then flash the rom?
Thanks worked like a charm. Got cm7 back.

You can try 3 different methods. First try flashing cwm3.0 twice from rom manager before rebooting. Second under the advanced options choose erase recovery before flashing new recovery. Third flash the recovery as a PC36IMG

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Stop using ROM Manager and do everything in Hboot or recovery.
The ONLY thing I use ROM Manager for anymore is to fix permissions.

Remove the -1 in the name, place the file on the root of your sdcard, and then flash in the bootloader.

Exactly!
Using Rom Manager on the Evo is like using training wheels on a racing bike. You're gonna wipe out!

Download the latest version of the radio (2.15.00.11.19).
Place the radio file, naming it update.zip, on the root of your SD card.
Power off the HTC Evo 4G.
Boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery, by holding the Volume Down button while powering on.
Once you enter ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side volume buttons to move around, and the power button to select.
Select Install zip from sdcard.
Select Choose zip from sdcard.
Select the radio update.zip.
NOTE: The HTC Evo 4G will reboot during this process.
Once the installation has finished, select Reboot system now. Now the HTC Evo 4G's Baseband version should now be 2.15.00.11.19.
I got the error
"Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread and based recovery. Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages"
What can i do?
Call me crazy, but doesn't CWM fail at updating radios?? I swear I read that somewhere
Please help need to flash the radio but cant get it work under CWM
You need Amon Ra, which is th first thing everyone should do after they get rooted anyhow.
Click on the link for my guide in my signature.
I have links to Amon Ra, and a walk through on how to flash it, how use it and how to upgrade radios.
I have CWM installed, do i need to uninstall it? or what do i need to do?
No, when you flash Amon Ra, it'll just replace CWM
I got amon recovery installed, flashed the zip radio file it rebooted now its stuck at formatting cache? is there something i did wrong, or wait it out or just reboot and i should be good to go?

Just reboot, it should work but check in settings anyways
You don't NEED to flash the wimax, though you may choose to.
I've had a radio flash stick on formatting cache.......... before.
If I remember right, even though the text sticks on the screen, as long as you have options to reboot, it's ready.
Edit: roids beat me.

When it gets to formatting cache, you may notice the options menu reappears relatively quickly, so you can just reboot

It is.
@OP - You should probably make sure you're flashing the latest radios, because the one you're listing goes back to Froyo.
I tried flashing to the latest 12.19 but after installing the zip and restarting it still shows up as 11.19? any reason why? can you guys please give me a link to update my radio to the latest version..

Are you S-ON? If so, you can't flash a radio that way.
If you're S-ON and UNLOCKED, you'll have to do a nandroid of your current setup, flash the latest RUU to update radios, etc., and then re-flash your custom recovery and restore your nandroid.
What version is the latest RUU? Have a link?

Do you wipe data/cache and do a factory reset before flashing new rom? For me, it get stuck at boot screen if I flash a new rom without wiping.
Wiping data and factory reset is so important. When I tried to flash my first ROM it also got stuck. Try using 4ext instead of twrp.

There are several more partitions than the ones you listed. Try a different recovery. If that doesnt work, you might return to stock Froyo and try rooting again the right way. I think the problem stems from the method you used to get get the engineering bootloader installed. It will always show S-Off, regardless of the state of the flag. It's possible that because you started off by going through HTC Dev that something is off. In fact, as a test, try flashing your boot.img separately through fastboot and see if it boots.
I tried that and it didn't work even when I relocked the boot loader from the HTC dev site and switched the eng boot.IMG to an updated one and got s off with gfree it boot froyo but would boot any ROM that I flashed with cwm and twrp still yet to try 4ext can't find the file for glacier specifically

Try 4EXT, it it may fix the problem. Heres a link to the APK. It will install the recovery itself after you install the apk, open it, and click install or whatever it is.
Link for the apk is here --->http://www.4ext.net/get.php?apk
Or you could get it from the google store.

I think he means that he requires the .img because he cannot boot into the OS to run the .apk on his phone.
If it is inappropriate to post a link to this file, I apologize in advance. It is FREE and I take no credit for creating any part of EXT4 Recovery.
