Greetings all,
I am currently running build 1.016.04_COM_GEN1, and the OTA upgrade to 1.139.04 is failing- exclamation in triangle after reboot. It does successfully return to Honeycomb afterwards. So I did some reading (thank you all for so much useful info in various threads) and found that I had stuffed it up by deleting HeroOfSparta.apk after rooting it (I guess I should have read the post about deleting things a bit better), without taking a backup.
After finding the log file /cache/recovery/last_log, it tells me:
Installing update...
Verifying current system...

So I'm putting in a request for this file please- either by itself or as part of an image, if there is one. I did a pretty thorough look through the posts and couldn't find any links to a backup of this image or file. If it helps, all of the other files in the /system/app directory have a date of 18 Mar 11.
And with it I'd like to salute all of you who are gradually helping me make this the most awesomely indispensable tool I've ever had!
here u go

EDIT: Not sure if we are supposed to post 'em but... here is your file... extract from the 7z... jejeje

Since this file is needed to correct update I think YES we can post this kind of files in this forum.
Should be fine as hero of sparta was the trial version.
Lets golf and shift on the other hand are the full versions

Many thanks... this did get past the error and (unfortunately) onto the next. It's now asking for NFS.apk:

Is this one I can request in the same way? I don't want to break the rules but am unsure about the status of the file.
/app FOLDER
I will be uploading the /system/app folder for those of you that are in need of those APK's...
This will be through MEGAUPLOAD as that is the account that I have for uploads. I will post a link for it today since I have received many requests for multiple files on this... I dont think that it will be against rules as I will not be hosting files here and these are meant to be used as "RECOVERY ONLY" information...
Anyway, as stated, when I get home from work I will begin the upload and post the link once it has completed. jejeje
If anyone believes this is AGAINST FORUM RULES please let me know before this so that I dont get myself in trouble...
Hope this will help everyone! jejeje

Doesn't it need execute permissions? Not sure how Android is as opposed to Linux, but rwxr-xr-x would make more sense if you intend to run it?

Same Any fixes?
Well I hate to ask the obvious but inside your update.zip do you have the file "META-INF\com\google\android\update-script"?

Did you ever get an answer to this?
It's because you didn't delete the file contents of META-INF before resigning the zip... you need to leave the directory there but delete the signature files. Otherwise it will sign and verify correctly but throw the subject error.
which files
Can you tell me what i need to delete? I'm trying to flash cyanogenmod 6 and when I open the zip file I'm not sure what which files I have to delete.

This was featured on the XDA Homepage a few days ago, but the developer just confirmed that it should work for any flashable zip, and *should* work on any phone.
Thought I would give the heads up here.
Could fix random Force Closes/Bootloops that people get even when they had wiped multiple times before flashing a new ROM.
Original Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765989
Edit: See post 3 in this thread for my results.
This should save a few headaches, but I think most issues are caused with people not wiping....this wont be able to fix that.
Well, I finally put this utility to the test and here are my results.
Wiped Data/Cache/Dalvik, flashed BakedSnack 1.6 and immediately ran FixFlash. Here's my output:
Code:
E:\aEVO\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb shell sh /sdcard/FixFlash.sh
* daemon not running. starting it now *

3. Copy both the original .zip file and the extracted folder of the .zip to the root of your sdcard
???? what is the extracted folder? theres multiple folders inside a rom zip?

Say your rom is BakedSnack1.6.zip, extract the contents to a folder called BakedSnack1.6 and place that folder on the root of your sdcard.
Make sense? Not sure how else to explain it.
To avoid filling the forum with question i'm just going to create this thread and ask all my questions here.
I finally rooted my nexus 7 on my mac and now am hoping to install a USB ROM, i couldnt post a link but it seems to be most popular for in car installs.
I downloaded the file and compressed it to a .zip file then tossed it onto the android. Next i booted into clockwork recovery the selected install zip from sd card>Choose zip from sd card> 0/>cm-10.zip>yes - install cm-10.zip
After this the tablet says
Finding update package...
opening update package...
installing update...
installation aborted...
Can anyone help me and/or tell me what i'm doing wrong? all help is appreciated. Thankyou

A more acceptable procedure is to find - via SEARCHING - closely related threads first, and post your questions in those threads. That demonstrates to people that you've actually tried to help yourself by searching. If you actually have something unique to say, in that circumstance you start a new thread.
"Help me install a ROM" is not a new idea here on XDA, whether you have a problem with it or not.

It's already a .zip file to begin with when you download it. Is your Mac uncompressing it automatically when you download it?
If so, use something other means (not Safari?) to download it. FTP. Wget. Firefox for Mac.
Then, if the ROM developer publishes rom file MD5 signatures, validate that you can compute the same checksum on the file downloaded to your computer.
If you then subsequently copy it to something else (such as the tablet), check the file length and/or the MD5 signature of the copied file as well.
Was there not some additional message on the screen besides "installation aborted"? Details are important.
The most probable guess at the moment (from your narrative) is that you borked the download and/or did something else that made the custom recovery unhappy.
BTW, when you install a new ROM for the first time, you generally:
(a) make a full Nandroid backup first (using the custom recovery)
(b) perform a "factory reset" in the custom recovery,
(c) flash of the ROM file.
Attempting the last step without the first two is just begging for trouble.
good luck
Hi guys!
Ok. so I'm (really) not a developer, I'm just trying to make a flashable ZIP (+ custom recovery and root) from the latest D80230f_00.kdz (told you, not a dev', but, yeah, everyone should starts with something right?). and I got some difficulties at the end of the process: when trying to flash the zip file, I got a big red error (ok, just red) in TWRP: "E: failed to sysMapFIle /sdcard/rom_name.zip".
Have you ever met this error?
Furthermore, I got a question about the update-binary file (maybe it's link to the error?): I've downloaded @somboons KK_template_new.zip, but their was already an update-binary file in it. I've unziped the archive, write everything I need in the updater-script, and re-zip all (see attachments), I don't do anything except ziped all: should I do something else such as sign the archive or thing like this? 'cause I don't find anything accurate about update-binary file: I don't know if we have to take it from other archive, or if it's create during signing the archive.
Oh, yeah, the recovery.img is TWRP 2.8.7.1.
Anyway, all kind of help will be very appreciate.
Thanks in advance guys !
@casual_kikoo
I would ask a mod to move your post to the Q&A where it belongs
I'm not sure if they move them or delete threads when they're not in the right sub forums.

Whenever u flash a zip for it needs to be signed, I would check or Ayysir's Android Kitchen, that's where I started my development from, I started just like u, only modifying touchwiz roms and repackaging them in flushable zoos format with android kitchen, if u need help let me know
P.S., Windows is NOT the platform to start development on lol, if I were u I'd start dual booting whatever machine ur using with a Linux OS of ur choice, for someone new like urself, I'd go with Ubuntu

First of all, thanks you so much for your fast answer. Yeah, I know Windows isn't the easiest platform to start development. Well, I've already have Ubuntu installed on VMWare, I just took screenshots on Windows .
Ok, so if I understood well, update-binary file is created during the signing step? That's why it doesn't work right now, 'cause I don't signed my ZIP.... Yeah ok I start to understand !
I'm gonna download Android Kitchen (this one right?) and start cooking !
Again, thanks you so much dude you make me more and more enthusiast about creating ROMs on Android.
