sounds to me that you are getting corrupt downloads, have you tried to dl a diff zip, one that seems to be working for everyone else, and test it? have you upgraded roms today, or changed anything???

I've tried a few... apk downloads are fine but sips are not... I haven't been able to even flash kernels so I haven't done anything new

give us some phon info... rooted? rom? ect...

Rooted with stock Rom and using faux 8.2..... noticed when I tried to flash 8.3 so I tried other zips and nothing downloads

have you tried a full wipe and restoring an older back up... then seeing if that fixes it, or pushing them through ADB?

Restored backup.... don't use adb... I can install them if I put on SD from computer. Just don't download direct any more

well i am sorry i cant help you bro... my knowledge base is rather limited, but i have walked you through everything i know how to do... you could get a logcat and give it to the dev of the rom, and i am sure they could help you a bit more. and if you need help on how to get a logcat then go to the resource bible in the dev forum or use the search function, but i can take you no further

Well it was stock tmo so no developer.... I die flash to 8.3 kernel through SD and problem is gone for now.... but thanks for your help

np, and i am glad it is resolved, happy modding

Mytouch 4G won't FLASH ANYTHING!!

Ok, I've looked and searched and googled for the last few weeks now. I have a mytouch 4g that is on the stock rom w/ ota update. I do have perm root and s-off, per the thread here on xda. However, I can't get it to flash anything at all. Either in the hboot (bootloader) or in clockwork. I tried to flash a the cm7 (had on my hd2 and loved it) in clockwork, says can't open /directory addy with rom, then has this: (bad) installation aborted. I tried to flash a stock image to try and start over, the pd15img, had it named correctly etc. It goes for a sec, then says the .nbh files are missing for 3 different things. Can anyone help or is this phone effed? I can use it just fine, but the stock rom sucks and has stupid drm, which doesn't let me play most of my music. If someone can help and has paypal I WILL make a donation to you, I'm not rich, but am a busy father of 2 divorced with a full time job. PLEASE HELP!!!!

What cwm are you running?

3.0.0.5, I went to older versions of cwm also and still no dice at all. I am at a loss. I am by no means an expert, but have jailbroken iphones forever and did all the work on my hd2, so I'm not a complete noob but I still consider myself to be compared to others.

That's why you can't flash the stock image, which is Froyo based. 3.0.0.5 can only flash Gingerbread ROMs. However, that doesn't explain why CM7 won't boot for you, since 3.0.0.5 should successfully flash that. My suggestion would be to flash CWM 3.0.0.6 (can handle all ROMs) and then try re-flashing CM7 or the stock ROM.

I'll give it a whirl right now....will report back

There's the download for it. I meant to put it in my previous post.

I was pretty sure I tried this a while ago, and I was right, still nothing. It says the same thing, (bad) installation aborted, before all of that it says can't open /filedirectory. Seriously peeved at this phone at this point. It will not flash anything at all.

It could also be a corrupt SD card, or even though you have S-OFF, your phone isn't actually fully rooted (seems unlikely though since CWM is successfully installed). I'm sure someone else will chime in here eventually.

i have a couple spares, i'll check it out real quick. usually my comp will tell me if there is an issue with the sd card, so I'll try another quick like. I have and am using an sdhc patriot that is ok per tmobile, and i have an 8 and 16gb laying around also
edit it was a kingston in there. would that make a difference?

Another non helping condescending comment!!?? Really? Really? Unless this has been fixed and you can point me to the post, I will kindly ask you to eff off and leave this thread. I have not found a fix and still can't put a custom rom on my phone that doesn't have drm. Respectfully, dude just trying to get his phone working the way it should.

Could also be a bad download. Id delete the old redownload whatever rom your wanting. Make sure you do a full wipe of everything and wouldn't hurt to do out a second time.

Was just thinking about that. Is there any difference in doing it right on the phone compared to a pc?

Not that I have noticed. I get the same amount of bad downloads on pc our my phone. Buy when it does happen I just download again and wipe everything again. There is a list here somewhere of everything to wipe, can't remember off the top of my head.

How many bad downloads have you gotten? I always download ROM files with my PC, and then transfer them to the SD via the USB cable. I always verify the MD5 when I can, but most devs don't provide that these days.

I gotten about 11 since I have had this phone. Thinking its something to do with my router. Noticed I drop connection for a second randomly. which can cause file to be corrupt. To lazy to get a new router lol

Glad you got it working! Payment is totally out of the question. The XDA community is sort of a "pay it forward" sorta thing. If I had paid everyone that's helped me with things over the years, I'd be broke!

MIUI HD2 service problem

Hello all, i recently got my phone back, i bricked it. They didnt noticed and did a board swap
Well now i got my android back on track but im having some service problems.
When I'm at home, i sometimes lose service, but even when I do have service i have to try an average of 20 times before a text i send actually goes out. Also i can't recieve or make phone calls.
When im at work though, i have no problem what so ever. Everything works like a charm, and thats why i'm confused. I already contacted Vodafone, they say there isn't anything wrong with there network and my phone should work.
So any tips on what I could do? Flash a different ROM? Reflash this one? (because there was a country wide problem with the Vodafone network whilst i was installing this rom)
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks for reading, Greetings Thierry

You should check which radio you have on your hd2.
2.15er radio is recommended for usage with android
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium

Im currently on 2.15.50.14 radio.
I saw it was recommended in some guys guide. So that shouldn't be the problem if im correct?

Yes it shouldn´t be.
Hmm to make sure that software is okay do a complete reflash or try another ROM.
Could be also the kernel.
Try this one and flash it via CWM

Ok im reflashing this rom cause i really love it
Hope it will refresh some service settings or something. Im thinking maybe he got some fault settings when the vodafone network was down, i dont know. Hoping

Yes wipe everything and reflash all the things (btw do you use clockwork?).
If you need further help write me a pm and we can figure it out
Good luck
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium

Ok so, i did this:
- Reflashed the MIUI rom. (same problem)
- Flashed dif. rom. (same problem)
- Reflashed MIUI rom. (same problem)
- Flashed new kernel. (same problem)
Any other ideas?
Oh yeh and i use clockwork

Okay you can do following :
Run task29 (will erase everything except bootloader) : do some search for the prog and the how to!
Go into bootloader to
Flash magldr and flash it
Flash clockwork mod with right partition etc
Flash new rom.
Otherwise it's a network problem or a hardware (but i don't think so since you said it works if you are not at home).
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium

Wait that could be it, i flashed 250mb when i got my phone back from the repair guys.
But before that i used the 150mb one, could that be it?

It depends on how much space your rom needs.
You should see the roms thread to check what layout it needs and how much space.
But if it's still the same rom like you had before (and if it was working before like it should) flash a 150mb layout
Probably this is the issue
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium

Well i did everything you described, but still nothing :S
Im running out of ideas here, how can I have service before i bricked my phone and at my work, but not at home?

Arghhh I think it's the network.
It shouldn't be your phone since we checked the main possibilities :/
I am really sorry but you can try to flash another kernel. Try tytung kernel. It's my last idea

I think its the router network tbh cos I rooted both mine and my partners which I did two days later, and the issue arose on both handsets simultaneously, so I'm guessing its the network, must get my bband back on save leeching of the neighbours

this sometimes happens to me if i try to reconnect to a 802.1x eap security network. when i reenter the credentials, it works. this could be a network based problem. what are the security settings?

mine worked for first few mins,then now its not working. please help.

Guys....I am getting crazy...I had a perfectly good CM7.1.0.1 buzz working (wifi too)
then after I played around with it for 3-4 days and installed various apps, the WIFI stopped working. As in, it scans ok, but when try to connect it fails..
- i fails even on open networks
- sometime its fails to obtain IP, sometimes it doesnt even reach that point.
I have tried to:
- activate airplane mode - tunr wifi on - reboot - many times in various orders..nada
- install various 'fixer' apps. nada
- flash new radio.nada
- flash new kernel.nada
- back up restore.nada
- clear cache, factory reset, dalvik clear . nada
- flashed latest CM nightly(256). Phone failed To Load.
- flashed CM7.0.3 - phone failed to load
- flashed CM7.1.0.1 again, phone loaded, (lost all settings) but wifi STILL not working
- I have tried varius networks, tried resetting, tried disabling encryption, changing channel, just about every option on the router. Its the phones fault.
I am very curious about this, because this error seems very serious and not many people seem to have it...so I am missing something Big..(?)
I will try to do a complete fresh install deleting everything formating etc
Maybe some app screwed up the wifi???
im a NOOB! any1 care to enlighten???

Try flashing a SAFE ruu, I had a similar problem but after going back to stock everything worked fine again.

may be yours issue may be different than mine.

Nice one, fyi if you read the 2nd post you'll see you can flash a safe ruu which basically means someone has removed the hboot, recovery and radio images so you will keep root and clockwork recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12782368

well yea ofc I will flash a ruu instead of running a full restoration.. I wonder if that would do the trick..
still u havent answered if u reflashed CM after you got your wifi sorted out..(but judging by your sig u did...)
I just dont want to break the wifi again..it seems so random..almost deal-breaker for me
then again..damn spyware on ruu...thats a definate deal breaker

Using an ruu is a full restoration the only thing different with a safe ruu is you won't lose any of the good stuff. I have made my own safe ruu, saved on my SD which I've used twice to solve problems, first was wifi wouldn't connect at all even after a reflash and the second problem was random reboots on every rom, nandroid backup I had. Just flashing the ruu fixed both of those and I was back up and running on cm7 in about 20 minutes with no problems at all.
I haven't updated my sig for months but it is still more or less the same, I always end up back on cm7 no matter what rom I try.
It just feels right to me.......

check that the sim cover is on its place and well set. If that does not work try cleaning the antenna (the contacts on the lid) with alcohol...

I suffered from the same problem he did whenever I tried to flash the latest leedroid. I never managed to figure it out. Granted, I never did put much effort into it.
This time buddy, gotta disagree with you
Edit: I assumed that u re using 5.1.0 maybe? If this so, just flash 5.1.1 fix
- with me, everytime I flashed the fix I would loose the radio. 5.1.0 worked without issues (for the little time I used it.)
