Ive been trying to download a few Zip files from the android google code page&everytime i try to flash one i always get errors
1)files not signed
2)corrupt file(bad)
I download them from my G1 web browser (have download crutch lite installed)
I would use a computer but i dont have acess to one for awhile.
Btw im stuck at RC29 , just trying to update my phone
I have been running a variety of custom roms on my N10, and finally being fed up with everything I want to revert to stock again. I downloaded the stock ROM from developers dot google dot comand have tried every way to sunday to install it but nothing seems to work. Side loading with ADB fails on install, copying the ZIP over and installing through TWRP fails as well as copying the whole extracted .tar over and trying to install the ZIP inside it fails as well. Please help, I really want to go back to simple, easy stock.
You don't flash the stock rom though recovery. Reboot the tablet into fastboot-usb and just run the flashall.bat file that is included in the stock rom download.
Hello Im new to the world of Custom Recovery and Flashing Roms. So I'm having a bit of a problem!!!! I rooted my Sprint Galaxy s4 with odin on my iMac threw Parallels V Machine and windows. Worked great! i installed TWRP which also worked well. Ok heres my problem.... I boot into recovery and wipe all the things i need to and I've done my research for a rom that works with my phone I've also watched countless number of youtube videos on how to flash. i have the rom downloaded on my sd card. When i pull it up it lets me pick the rom but no swipe to flash. Instead... When i tap on the rom it goes into the files that the rom has in it and thats it... no way to flash it. Then I'm left with no choice but to restore my backed up stock rom. Does anyone have any ideas? What am i doing wrong if anything? Please help if possible. Thank you!
You are in the wrong forum. This is the Verizon variant.
But to answer your question it sounds like you extracted the zip file to a folder.
You do but extract it. You only flash the .zip file as a whole.

But i didn't extract anything i pulled it from my iMac is that the problem?
Does it have [Rom filename].zip? Or just show the rom filename?
The file list in twrp to install a rom will show filename extensions.

Also questions go in Q&A
Thanks

As was mentioned you've done something wrong; and that looks to be that you've extracted the ROM zip.
Since you downloaded it on a Mac it probably used the download manger and uzipped it.
You need to download the file (and keep it) so that it looks something like this:
Stock_Rooted_Deodexed_MF9_Rom.zip
or
Sacs_Custom_Rom_4.3_v3.1.zip
or
MetalROM_v3.3.zip
etc.
Copy that to you exernal SD card then in TWRP select install zip after you've followed the OP's instructions on wiping to select it and install.
I am currently running Kangakat 4.3 and am trying to update to 4.4.2. I am using TWRP 2.6.0.3 and have not had any issues with updating the ROM in the past. However this time I keep getting an Install Failed error message. I performed a factory reset and have downloaded the ROM from different sites however it does not matter. It still fails to update.
TWRP states unable to open ZIP file.
I updated to TWRP 2.6.3.0 and still receive unable to open zip file. I have downloaded the zip file from both the primary and mirror sites.
I am rather frustrated at this point and am hoping for some help.

Have you tried to re-download the rom ? It could be a bad zip file and you just need to redo it.

I tried downloading it to the phone multiple times and still encountered the install fail error.
Once I downloaded it to the computer and moved it over to the phone it installed without issue. I am not sure what the problem was but it is working now.

That's been an issue in the past with many devices. Sometimes the rom you download on your phone just won't flash but always best to check the MD5 anyway. Glad it got ironed out.

Hello, I managed to get root on the new 7.1.1 firmware for the T377P. I had a problem getting any supersu zip to take and also had no luck with CF Autoroot either. I did however have luck flashing magisk though TWRP. I used the TWRP 2.8.7 modified from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-samsung-tab-e-sm-sm-smnu-smp-t3302935 *Dont forget to leave a thanks and feedback as well*
Then after you have TWRP installed flash the magisk files ill put in the drive folder as well. Reboot and install busybox and finished.
For even easier installation I made a TWRP boot and system backup that can be restored from TWRP as well just unzip and place in your TWRP folder with other backups and just restore. Its already rooted with magisk 14.0. I used 7 zip to zip so i would use it to extract it as well. I also have the theme store installed and integrated into the launcher but its not functional until i change a file or 2 I just haven't had the time yet but I will also upload a flashable zip after i finish it. The theme store works but Samsung recognizes its a tablet so it gives you a device not supported screen I just have to change the device model in the system files.
Also I put in the drive folder a stock firmware just unzip and flash through odin 3.10.7. its untouched completely stock.
The stock and rooted are both 7.1.1 SPR_T377PVPU3CQI4 firmware.
STOCK AND ROOTED ROM. MAGISK FILE TO FLASH AS WELL
If i forgot something or posted incorrectly i apologize Im not much of a dev yet just a tinkerer that stumbles onto stuff occasionally so I haven't created many threads I just try to share when i find out something I haven't seen posted. I welcome constructive criticism too lol. Have fun any questions feel free to ask and as always enjoy
If I helped you out feel free to hit thanks
I ALSO PUT IN A FEW OTHER USEFUL FILES IN WITH THE FIRMWARES. FEEL FREE TO DOWNLOAD THERE COMPATIBLE WITH THE T377P. THE UPDATED MAGISK AIO ZIP IS IN THERE AS WELL
Almost complete theme store and UI upgrade
ok I almost have the theme store working. The only issue im having is they fail to install. im thinking its the overlay folder setup incorrectly or its in the floating feature file it does not have the changable UI in it. Another thing i did was modify the Android N UI. It now is the same as the phones so no split screen tab junk. I never liked the split screen.
Anyone with experience feel free to help out I just need the themes to install. it stops at completing download then followed by fail.
As you can see it even gives us the rounded google search bar.
In this folder i put in the updates build prop and theme support. Flash with TWRP both files then reboot. After you boot up it will say Android N is updating then it will modify your tab to a phone look with the round search bar. Still need the themes to finish installing so any help would be wonderful. see pics below
Any devs with theme store experience i have a small but simple problem im sure. Need assistance getting themes to finish installing. Thank you in advance

Yes I have installed this using the TWRP and flashing Magisk method but for some reason, many of my apps now force close or freezes but it is rooted and pass safety net check. Trying to install Xposed also brings up an error but if I read somewhere correctly, there is conflict with Xposed and Nougat. I haven't tried the TWRP backup rooted rom yet.
I installed via twrp backup, and installed the audio mod and downloaded magisk 16,works great, except the audio sounds fast and high pitched, like Alvin & the chipmunks, even with all effects disabled any idea? Also, with magisksu running the show, why is the supersu apk in /system? I can just delete that right? Thanks! =)
Update: I reflashed without wiping data and did not reflash the audio mod and that fixed the problem there! How do you install themes?

I know this is an old thread but has anyone run into the issue of google play services no longer working after flashing the stock ROM? Any idea how I would fix it? I've tried uninstalling all play services and play store updates as well as wiping cache and storage of both. I've also wiped the cache and storage of the google framework.
Do You Have Any Tutorial, Help PLZ...
I know this is a old post but thank you.I have been beating my brains with how to get texting and phone on this tablet.....you have solved that all for me.THANK YOU
